A summer breeze gently caresses Cabo da Roca.
The legendary end of the world, where "the land ends and the sea begins."
Shen Zhi Qiu wore a white wedding dress, light and ethereal, like a fairy descended from heaven. Her long hair flowed in the wind, creating a beautiful scene with the azure sea behind her.
Not far away, Lu Jia, dressed in a dark blue suit, strode confidently toward her.
“My mom is so pretty! Isn’t she?” Sitting on the grass, Zhao Zhao raised her arm and nudged the little girl in the pink princess dress next to her, then proudly raised her chin in the direction of Shen Zhi Qiu.
"Yes." The little girl, dressed in a pink princess dress, was incredibly cute. She had just woken up, her eyes still a little unfocused, but she clapped her hands politely. Her voice was soft and sweet, full of childlike innocence.
Zhou Xiaoran, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh as she watched this scene. She squatted down and teased the little girl, "Niannian, are you sleepy? Isn't Zhaozhao's mother your mother too?"
Niannian froze, her pink lips pouting unhappily, "Hmph! Brother is always bullying me!"
Seeing that Niannian was unhappy because of her, Zhaozhao covered her mouth and secretly laughed.
"Zhao Zhao Niannian!" Shen Zhi Qiu suddenly called out in their direction and waved for them to come over.
“Brother, let’s go over there.” Niannian’s little face brightened up immediately, and she stopped being fussy. She called out to her brother in her childish voice and reached out her hand to Zhaozhao, indicating that he should hold it.
Two small figures seemed to be enveloped in a golden halo in the afterglow of the setting sun. They walked hand in hand on the sloping hillside, with blooming succulents and colorful flowers beneath their feet, and the air filled with the fresh fragrance of flowers and the damp, salty smell of the sea.
"Brother, do you think Mom loves us the most or Dad loves us the most?" Niannian suddenly broke the silence and asked in a mumble. Her little face was full of curiosity and anticipation.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhao frowned, thought seriously for a moment, and then said firmly, "Mom should love us the most! We were born from Mom's ten months of pregnancy, so naturally our bond is the deepest." His tone revealed an undeniable confidence and determination.
"Oh." Niannian didn't quite understand, but she still nodded in agreement, "Brother, you know so much!" Her little face was filled with admiration for her brother.
"Then, brother, do you think Dad loves Mom the most or us the most?!" Niannian asked curiously, looking at the succulents spreading at her feet.
Zhao Zhao frowned and looked up at Lu Jia. At that moment, Lu Jia was looking directly at Shen Zhi Qiu, and even from this distance, he could still see that Lu Jia's eyes were full of tenderness and love.
Zhao Zhao hesitated for a moment, then gave her answer: "Um... Dad probably loves Mom more."
“Yes, brother is right.” Niannian nodded solemnly. “But,” her little brain suddenly went blank, and she tilted her head and asked, “But brother, Mom wasn’t born from Dad, so why does Dad love Mom more?”
"You don't understand, you'll understand when you grow up," Zhao Zhao said haphazardly. He knew that this question was probably too complicated and difficult for children his age to understand, and he couldn't explain it clearly.
"Oh, brother is so amazing! He knows everything. When I grow up, I'll know too." Niannian thought to herself, and her steps became even lighter.
Zhao Zhao gave her an admiring look, even though they were twins, born at the same time.
"Countdown begins."
"Three..., two..., one..."
The shutter clicked, and Shen Zhi Qiu suddenly turned her head to look at Lu Jia, who also turned her head to look at her.
Her eyes sparkled with tenderness and affection.
Lu Jia leaned closer and gently kissed Shen Zhi Qiu's hair, as if the whole world had shrunk to just the two of them.
For a moment, he seemed to recall the scene of the first time he met her.
That's great, my dream from back then has finally come true.
Niannian giggled and clapped happily in her mother's arms, while Zhaozhao lowered her head and pursed her lips, secretly smiling.

"Love is restraint, selfless protection, and the only ray of light in the face of despair."
Perhaps, this is the best interpretation of Lu Jia's deep love for Shen Zhi Qiu.
This is my first novel of a million words. After much hesitation, I still want to stop here, at the moment when love is at its most intense.
From now on, only sweetness awaits! Perhaps there will be sweet little side stories later; let's meet in the side stories if we haven't finished speaking!
Thank you all for your support, my darlings. Welcome to meet again in my new book.
The new book is available here: "Mrs. Lu, Your Backer Has Arrived".
Today is May 21st. On this romantic day, I hope everyone can hug the person they love most.
