One year and three months later.
The Han Tang Bookstore remains bustling with people.
Shen Wenran's new book signing event was held here.
People were coming and going all around her, and behind Shen Wenran, a long banner was stretched out, displaying the name of her new book.
The readers lined up in an orderly fashion, each holding a book in their hands. When they reached Shen Wenran, their faces were filled with excited joy.
Finally, it was time to rest. Shen Wenran picked up the thermos next to her and took a sip.
The reporter had the opportunity to conduct an interview at this time.
One of the reporters looked at her earnestly and said, "Ms. Shen, I heard that everything in your book is based on your true experiences. Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Wenran maintained a polite and elegant smile.
"Really? If I said it was real, would you believe me?"
The reporter, who was also holding her newly published book, chuckled and said, "Of course I don't believe it's true. A novel is a novel; how can it be confused with reality? Especially this book... it contains many things that are completely different from reality."
"Right, let's go here. It has too many fantasy elements, such as the female protagonist entering the world of the book and being able to hear the male protagonist's voice. All of these things are impossible."
"However, the ending is good. The male protagonist from the book comes out, finds the female protagonist in reality, and they live happily ever after."
"This is the second book you've written with the same character names. May I ask you why the character names in this book are exactly the same as the previous ones?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Wenran picked up the thermos again and took a small sip.
This made her already slightly red lips appear even more rosy and glossy.
She said, "This is very simple. I was just too lazy to think of a name, so this is easier to remember. Actually, it can also be considered the afterword of the first book."
Upon hearing this, the reporter exchanged a glance with the reporter beside him, and they understood the reason.
One of the reporters tried to smooth things over, saying, "That's true, and I'm sure you're not the first one to do this."
"It's truly baffling that you portrayed a man in such detail, yet you are single."
"etc."
Before the reporter could finish speaking, Su Ruan interrupted her.
The reporter looked at her with surprise: "Ms. Chen, what's wrong?"
Shen Wenran turned her gaze to the man holding the baby beside her and said calmly, "Perhaps I was still single at my book signing last year, but I'm not this year."
The reporters followed her gaze and were immediately stunned.
The man, wearing a crisp, ironed white shirt, had a near-perfect profile.
Thick, dark eyebrows, hair naturally combed back, a high, straight nose, and thin, tightly pursed lips.
No matter how I look at him, this man seems familiar.
But soon they realized that the man in front of them was the male protagonist in Miss Shen's book.
However, compared to the cold and domineering male protagonist in the novel, the man who appears in front of them now seems more like the one mentioned later in the book.
Gentle and refined, noble and reserved, especially the tender way he holds his baby girl, he is simply the image of the perfect husband in the hearts of countless women.
"He...he's your husband?"
The female reporter was stunned.
They turned their gaze to Shen Wenran in front of them.
Shen Wenran wasn't as dazzling as described in the novel, but she was still the kind of person who could be spotted at a glance in a crowd.
She is beautiful, but the ethereal air about her brows makes her even more deserving of the title "writer."
In reality, the Shen Wenran in front of me was more sarcastic than the female protagonist in the book.
With narrow, elongated eyebrows and an extremely serious demeanor when not smiling, even though she is good-looking, no one would take the initiative to strike up a conversation with her.
Because she's the kind of person who seems like she could explode at any moment.
But they saw that when Shen Wenran looked at that man again, the tenderness in her eyes was so deep it could drip water.
They finally understood that love stories can be sweet, not just those in novels.
It works the same way in real life.
Moreover, in real life, there's no need for a single line of dialogue. Sometimes, just a glance or a gesture is enough for everyone to feel like they've been fed a bowl of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing a romantic moment).
"Yes, he is my husband."
Shen Wenran slowly got up and came to the man's side, naturally straightening his tie.
Right next to them was a little boy who looked to be about six years old.
He was dressed in a white shirt, just like a little boy. His hair was slightly curly chestnut brown, his skin was fair, and his big eyes were bright and piercing.
Everyone was initially amazed by the father, but soon became fans of the little boy.
"Oh my god, he's so handsome."
"Is this a child star? How can he be so good-looking? Waaah, another day of being tricked into having a son."
"The baby girl is so cute, could they both be their children?"
"It must be, especially that boy. His eyes are like his father's, and his face and nose are like his mother's. He is definitely their child."
Because of the family's outstanding good looks, they quickly attracted a large crowd.
Taking this opportunity, Shen Wenran said to the reporter, "We are already married, and we are very happy now."
"The reason we didn't expose them was because we didn't want to be disturbed, but now my husband says he's not afraid of being exposed. We're not celebrities, just ordinary people like everyone else."
Shen Wenran's remarks, along with the content of the reporter's interview and the appearance of the family of four, quickly made the photos go viral online.
