Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

Marcy was delighted, and immediately took the items and left the collection room.

As soon as she went upstairs, she bumped into Zhou Si, who had just gotten up.

Marcy then realized that it was already broad daylight without her noticing.

When Zhou Si saw her, he quickly walked over, looking at her with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Why do you look like a little kitten? And why are you up so early?"

Marcy, not bothering with anything else, smiled and said, "Let's not talk about that now. Come and see the treasure I found for you!"

Zhou Si still looked suspicious.

But Marcy had already pulled him into the room and started showing him the golden armor.

"This is one I found in my collection room; it's made of a very special material."

Today is the anniversary, why don't you wear it?

I feel like this might come in handy!!!

After saying that, she compared herself to him.

She added, "It's quite suitable."

Zhou Si was surprised. He raised his hand and picked up the golden armor, taking a closer look. He found that its material was indeed somewhat different from others.

It feels cool to the touch, and the silver plate on the chest is very thin, yet surprisingly tough.

It is indeed a treasure.

Shah Rukh got up at this time and came out of his room.

I happened to be passing by Marcy's room when I heard the two of them talking.

Curious, he turned his head and saw the golden armor in Zhou Si's hand.

"what?"

He was surprised for a moment, raised an eyebrow slightly, and then asked, "Where did you find such a good thing? It's still here?"

I thought it was lost a long time ago!

"It was found in a cabinet in the corner of the collection room."

Marcy asked, puzzled, "Dad, do you know what this is?"

Shah Rukh smiled slightly, a hint of pride flashing in his eyes. "Of course I know, this is a protective garment passed down from my ancestors."

It is woven from cicada silk and special substances, and during the production process, it is soaked in a special medicine for seven days and seven nights.

Not only is it impervious to swords and spears, and indestructible, but it is also immune to water and fire.

When he brought these treasures out of the tribe, he checked them carefully but couldn't find this piece of golden armor.

I thought it was an elderly member of the clan who had taken it and accidentally lost it.

He still felt it was a pity!

Later, once I was out in the outside world, I no longer needed this thing, and when I got busy, I forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, this girl actually found it.

He patted Zhou Si on the shoulder and said with concern, "Put it on! It will only benefit you."

This girl! She didn't sleep a wink last night, probably just looking through this.

After saying that, he went downstairs to have breakfast.

At this moment, only Zhou Si and Ma Xi remained in the room.

Marcy looked at Zhou Si, smiled somewhat embarrassedly, and said, "Don't listen to my dad's nonsense. Here, take this. I'm going to wash my face first."

"We'll go downstairs together for breakfast later."

As she spoke, she turned to go into the bathroom, but Zhou Si stopped her.

His eyes held a hint of tenderness and determination. "I'll help you wipe it."

Then, without saying a word, he took Marcy into the restroom.

He skillfully turned on the tap, adjusted the water temperature, and then carefully wiped Marcy's face.

Throughout the process, Zhou Si's movements were gentle and meticulous, as if he were wiping not a face, but a precious and fragile piece of porcelain.

I was afraid of accidentally hurting her.

Seeing this, Marcy knew that his mood must be fluctuating, and a sense of worry welled up in her heart.

She quickly explained, trying to dispel his doubts, "Don't overthink it, I just drank too much tea last night and had some insomnia. I tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep."

Left with no other choice, I simply got up and found something to do to pass the time.

Besides, there's nothing else I can do to help you; this is all I can manage.

Zhou Si listened attentively, his expression remaining largely unchanged.

He didn't say anything, but simply took a towel and carefully wiped her clean.

Then, he took the used towel to the sink, washed it carefully, and hung it to dry.

Throughout the process, his movements were gentle and meticulous.

Once he was ready, he turned around and kissed her—a passionate yet tender kiss, tinged with lingering affection.

Marcy didn't say anything more, but obediently hooked her arms around his neck, closed her eyes, and tried to feel his breath.

She was actually very happy when she found the golden armor.

Knowing this would definitely be useful to Zhou Si.

But she was still very anxious; there were too many uncertainties surrounding the anniversary celebration.

She dared not show it, for fear of affecting Zhou Si.

In her life, she hadn't experienced many separations, but at this moment, she wanted to etch the other person into her very bones.

The two kissed passionately for a while before Zhou Si released her and said, "This is enough. I won't take you to the anniversary celebration this time; it's too dangerous. You stay home and wait for me to come back."

"I'll formally introduce you to the others at the company's annual party next time, okay?"

Marcy shook her head. "I don't care about those formalities. As long as you can come back to me safe and sound, that's enough."

Zhou Si looked at her affectionately and nodded solemnly, "Okay, I promise you, I will definitely come back safe and sound."

Marcy's eyes reddened slightly, and she said in a slightly coquettish tone, "You can't lie to me. If you do, I'll turn around and find someone else to date, and that'll make you furious!"

Zhou Si chuckled and replied indulgently, "That won't do. You can only talk to me!"

As he spoke, he gently took Marcy's hand and tenderly slipped something onto her fingers.

Upon closer inspection, Marcy saw that it was an elegant yet well-designed ring.

Marcy was surprised, "This is..."

Zhou Si replied, "You gave me one when we graduated, so this time it's my turn to give one to you."

"After I've sorted things out, I'll come back, and then we'll start planning our engagement, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Marcy's eyes flashed with surprise, and a happy smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.

She held up her finger, examined the ring closely, and asked curiously, "When was this prepared?"

Zhou Si smiled slightly, revealing a hint of pride, "A long time ago, I personally designed and had it custom-made; it was a gift I had been planning for a long time."

I'm sure you'll like it and won't refuse it, right?

Marcy winked playfully, teasing him, "That's not necessarily true! If you can come back safely, I certainly won't refuse."

But if you don't come back, then I'll have no choice but to remarry someone else, wearing this ring you gave me.

Zhou Si leaned over and gently bit Marcy's lips, his tone domineering, "No, you can only be with me."

After saying that, he stared at her intently for a few seconds, then added, "Don't worry, I will come back, and I will never break my promise."
