To her even greater surprise, Lu Yan also had the same one.
Lu Yan knew that she wouldn't regain her memories in this world, so he had already prepared an explanation: "When you saved me before, I found this ring on your hand. The one on my hand is the one I was holding when I was born. At that time, because of this, I was judged to be the reincarnation of the Greedy Wolf Star. Now it seems that perhaps we are destined to be together."
Xia Yixin was surprised, but the two rings did indeed echo each other.
She suddenly had a hunch that it might be related to the memories she had lost, and at the same time, she also felt a bit of inexplicable worry.
As if sensing her emotional fluctuations, Lu Yan pulled her into his arms.
"Don't worry, Madam, I will make sure nothing happens to you."
Xia Yixin hugged him back, silently replying in her heart, "I love you too."
Three years have passed, and Xia Yixin's health has almost recovered, while the male supporting character's happiness level has soared to 90%.
She knew she would have to leave sooner or later, and she had already bought the pills to make him lose his memory, but she was still reluctant to leave, and the reluctance grew stronger.
In the rare moment of peace and warmth, she couldn't resist giving him a quick kiss.
During this time, taking advantage of his doting affection and believing that he "couldn't really do anything," she would occasionally sneak in some unwanted advances. Lu Yan felt guilty, and since she hadn't fully recovered, he let her do as she pleased.
However, everything has its limits.
After Xia Yixin fell asleep, she was unaware that Lu Yan had gone out to take a cold shower before returning.
He looked down at the sleeping little one and felt that there were some things that needed to be put on the agenda.
Then one day...
When she became unrestrained again, the man stopped letting her have her way.
Therefore, Xia Yixin realized that she had made a mistake of "taking things for granted".
But by the time she found out, it was too late, and so this became another story that lasted three days and three nights.
Three days later, she sobbed silently, muttering, "Liar! Big liar!"
He had already learned lip reading long ago since they were together.
The shameless man asked, "Haven't you heard the rumors outside, Madam?"
People outside are spreading rumors that someone is a fake eunuch, but she is still foolish enough to believe that he is real. The difference in his pulse before was because he deliberately used his internal energy to change his pulse to make it appear effeminate in order to avoid being exposed.
She angrily shut him up.
What surprised her even more was that even after they had consummated their marriage, Lu Yan's happiness level was only 99%.
She lived in constant fear for a while, but eventually she just let it go.
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
After returning from the front lines, Xia Mingyu first stayed at Peach Blossom Spring, where they were temporarily residing, for a period of time.
Xia Mingyu, who is already thirteen years old, looks almost exactly like Lu Yan, except for the two dimples that appear when he smiles, which makes Xia Yixin sigh.
Lu Yan, who is already over thirty years old, is a handsome middle-aged man, and Xia Yixin doesn't look any different either.
The family of three enjoyed several months of precious family time.
Of course, if it weren't for the matchmakers who wore out the door, Xia Mingyu, with his handsome looks and illustrious military achievements, would have long been the first choice for many noble families to arrange marriages. Unfortunately, Xia Mingyu just refused.
Xia Yixin also tried to play matchmaker for him, but unfortunately, Xia Mingyu always seemed to have no interest in family matters when the country was in turmoil. Even after Xia Yixin realized that he was still single in this world, she felt regretful for a long time.
However, what she didn't know was that these things had been decided ten years ago when he talked to his biological father, Lu Yan, and Xia Mingyu didn't want any entanglements.
The night before they left, the father and son drank and chatted, and Xia Yixin fell asleep after a while.
After a few rounds of drinks, all the peach blossoms in the courtyard were in bloom, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere.
"I haven't thanked you yet. Thank you for taking care of your mother and saving her a lot of trouble." Lu Yan felt a little awkward saying such tender words to his son, his tone dry and unnatural.
Xia Mingyu, on the other hand, seemed unconcerned, but his gaze turned serious when it fell on Xia Yixin. "If it weren't for you, there would be no me. Besides, you've come all this way because of me, Father. That's all I can do. The rest is up to you to protect Mother. I'm still waiting for the day when I can see you all again in the real world."
Lu Yan understood what he meant. After pondering for a long time, he patted Xia Mingyu, who had grown into a man, on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you might even have a younger sister."
The atmosphere from before vanished in an instant.
Xia Mingyu gritted his teeth. His father's thoughts about his "little cotton-padded jacket" never stopped. Humph, he wasn't angry at all... just kidding!
Looking at the sulking boy, Lu Yan smiled slightly. This child was a fusion of his and her blood.
This is perhaps what home feels like. But for this child, he felt gratified, moved, and also guilty.
After all, the child came at the wrong time. He originally wanted to sacrifice himself, but he didn't expect her to be even more determined. The family of three was finally reunited in this way, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.
The only pity is that although they know the truth, they are bound by the rules and cannot tell her.
Not long after.
Xia Yixin woke up when Lu Yan picked her up. She yawned and turned her head, but didn't see Xia Mingyu. She asked in lip reading, "Where's Mingyu?"
"That kid got the news and went back to the capital."
Xia Yixin was a little resentful; she had finally come back, but the person had disappeared again.
“It’s alright. If you miss him, we can go back to the capital. He said he wants to take the imperial examination and become the top scholar. It’s a good opportunity for us to see our old friend.”
Xia Yixin's eyes lit up. "Great!"
