Chapter 154 He is my lover, Wen Yanyu
The shop's front hall is cozy, with bookshelves on both sides filled with all kinds of books. The fire crackles softly as wood burns in the stove, and the staircase at the corner is hidden by green plants.
Wen Yanyu looked at the menu with pictures hanging in the room and ordered by talking and gesturing.
Sofia nodded in agreement, and while helping to tidy up the clothes, she casually stroked the rabbit's head several times.
Wen Yanyu adapted well, thanked the woman, and casually took off the half-hanging scarf, revealing his entire face.
Sofia, a hardcore rabbit lover and a sucker for cute things: ()OMG, God must have heard my prayers and sent me such an adorable rabbit as a gift.
Wen Yanyu ordered the hot drinks and then turned to ask the two what they wanted to drink.
Sophia then swept her gaze over the two of them. Fu Hanchuan remained standing behind Wen Yanyu, not saying a word, while Fu Zhiyan's expression was stiff as she casually pointed to a hot drink.
Sofia was slightly taken aback, as if a buoy submerged in a lake had been suddenly pulled down by a hooked fish, and her heart beat a little faster for no reason.
But it only lasted a moment, and soon returned to normal, without any further abnormality, not even giving anyone a chance to react.
Sophia turned her head and suddenly asked, "Are you from Xia Country?"
The woman's sudden use of her native dialect startled Wen Yanyu.
Sofia pulled Alexei aside and explained with a smile, "My ex-husband is from Xia. I lived there for a long time. It's a beautiful country, and I love it there."
After hearing the woman's explanation, Wen Yanyu's eyes widened, and she asked the boy curiously, "How old are you? Are you studying in Xia Country?"
After being slapped hard on the lower back by his mother, Alexei's cheeks flushed, and he introduced himself in a somewhat awkward tone, stammering for a long time before finally managing to finish his sentence.
Sofia answered for him first: "This kid is just 16 this year, and he and his sister are both studying here."
Wen Yanyu nodded and carefully examined the boy in front of her.
With a high nose, thin lips, black hair, and black eyes, perhaps because he hadn't fully developed his features yet, his facial contours weren't overly sharp; instead, they were relatively soft, and one could vaguely discern...
Wen Yanyu paused, glancing at Fu Hanchuan, who was sitting by the window in a daze. He looked like a miniature version of Fu Hanchuan.
Do all mixed-race people have the same face?
Even with these thoughts in mind, Wen Yanyu still sincerely complimented, "You're really good-looking."
They all look good.
Alexei was startled, covered his neck, and his face quickly flushed red. His entire face burned at a visible speed, and he ran inside as if in a state of stress.
"I'll go make something to eat." Alexei blurted out, flustered, and fled from the front hall as if his life depended on it.
Wen Yanyu rubbed his head. "Did I say something wrong?"
Sofia covered her mouth and chuckled, "I don't know who he took after, he's very shy, you don't need to worry about him."
Wen Yanyu nodded knowingly.
Alexei came from the back hall carrying three cups of hot drinks, his eyes darting around frantically. He put down the drinks and sat down to read a book.
Wen Yanyu found it somewhat amusing but didn't say much.
Only Fu Hanchuan, who had remained silent, looked up calmly, glanced at the boy in the corner, and then turned his gaze back to the window.
Fu Hanchuan stared blankly at the rows of books on the bookshelf, feeling as if he were in a soft swamp, his mind blank, his consciousness gradually dissipating amidst the sound of the fireplace burning, with only his heart beating alone.
“Every summer, I take my two children to Xia Country for a trip. You know, the food and rice wine there are really amazing.”
"Rice wine? I know a hot spring resort that makes its own rice wine. The scenery on the mountain is beautiful, and the food is also very good. If you come here in the future, I can recommend it to you."
"Really! My little girl really likes it. Let's exchange contact information."
Hot drinks were served, and Sophia and Wen Yanyu seemed to have met many times before, already familiar with each other and making plans to meet again next time.
Fu Zhiyan raised her numb fingertips, lowered her head and touched her chest, where her heartbeat had stopped.
During the meal, Sophia dragged Wen Yanyu along for over an hour. Wen Yanyu listened to Sophia recount her past experiences in Xia Kingdom, and finished a bowl of noodles and two large cups of hot drinks.
Seeing that it was getting late, Sofia reluctantly got up to say goodbye to the three after exchanging contact information.
Wen Yanyu put on the scarf and waved.
Sofia lifted her foot to see the three off.
Wen Yanyu buried one foot in the snow, and the warmth on her body quickly dissipated.
Sofia suddenly called out from the doorway, "Oh right, I haven't asked your names yet. What are your names?"
Wen Yanyu turned her head to answer when a hand was taken up, and a sticky, wet sensation filled her palm.
Wen Yanyu turned his head in surprise.
Fu Hanchuan looked up at the woman who was curiously looking at him from the steps, his voice trembling as he introduced her, word by word: "My name is... Fu Hanchuan, and he is... my lover, Wen Yanyu."
"my sweetheart."
"Wen Yanyu."
Fu Hanchuan's voice was hoarse, and his gaze pierced through the cold wind as he looked straight at the woman. The falling snowflakes melted on his eyelashes and fell drop by drop.
It's hard to tell whether it's snowmelt from winter or not.
The tears that didn't fall that night.
In the snowstorm, Sofia paused for two seconds, then quickly smiled and waved: "I'll remember. I wish you happiness."

"Wen Yanyu?" Alexei suddenly poked his head out after the three left and asked, "Wasn't my sister's name Wen Yanxia before?"
Sofia chuckled, holding her bunny-ear scarf, when she heard her son's comment and suddenly slapped her forehead, exclaiming, "!!!"
The two exchanged a glance.
"Yan Xia!!"

Based on existing data and DNA reports, the identification rate reached 99.99%...
Qin Chengzhi could barely see the rest of the report; only his trembling hands betrayed his emotions. After a long pause, he uttered only one sentence.
"We took him home."
Beside him was Jiang Wanrou, who was already sobbing uncontrollably.

P.S.: I haven't been feeling well lately, I've had some health problems, and I'm seeing a doctor.
I've noticed some misunderstandings. Er Gou's younger brother and mother really did die and genuinely don't remember anything. They were simply brought back by the corrected timeline. The family that was initially destroyed wasn't just Tu Bao's family, but also Er Gou's family. [In the uncorrected world, only that scumbag father and scumbag uncle died. Er Gou's mother never intended to kill everyone; she was just twisted by Jun.] This world was originally a dual-male protagonist world, and they were a perfect match.
