After drinking the warming soup obediently, Wen Zhimiao came out of Su Qingluo's arms restlessly again.

She carefully crawled to Shi Wanyue and Wen Jiuzhao, and looked much more obedient.

Su Qingluo looked at her like that and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

It was already late and the Lantern Festival was about to begin.

Su Qingluo and Yun Zhou came over and asked the maid to tidy up the children.

Then they took a carriage to a restaurant in the city.

Su Qingluo booked a box with the best view, which was just right for watching the parade in the city.

Several children were watching the performance happily by the window.

Su Qingluo and Yun Zhou were sitting at another window. There were a lot of food on the table and a barbecue stove was burning next to them.

Yun Zhou ordered the same drink as the children, and Su Qingluo ordered a pot of plum blossom wine, which is the signature wine of this restaurant.

It is not intoxicating and tastes sweet. Yunzhou also took a sip.

She really didn't dare drink too much because she knew her alcohol tolerance very well.

Yun Zhou looked at the dragon dance performance and various acrobatics below. Tianxuan, as the most powerful country in this era, cannot compare to the two prosperous times created when the country was founded, but it is still stronger than the surrounding small countries.

Xuandu, as the most prosperous and lively place in Tianxuan, allowed Yunzhou to vaguely glimpse some of its prosperity.

But she and Su Qingluo both knew very well that in today's Tianxuan, only Xuandu could be as prosperous as this.

Even beneath this prosperity there are countless decays, which is far from the prosperous times that Yun Zhou had seen in history books.

However, Wen Zhimiao and the other children did not think too much about it. They were happily eating cakes and watching the performance, and they were very happy.

Yun Zhou's gaze unconsciously fell on Wen Zhimiao. He saw her leaning lazily against Shi Wanyue, occasionally looking up and saying something to her little sister.

Shi Wanyue was about to tease her, but Wen Zhimiao pretended to be unhappy and opened her mouth to bite her.

Wen Jiuzhao smiled and took Wen Zhimiao's hand, taking her to continue watching the fire show outside.

Yun Zhou sometimes couldn't help but wonder if God made her reincarnate as a child to make up for her regrets in her last life and let her experience her childhood again.

A childhood with a normal body.

Su Qingluo also followed her gaze and looked over.

She took a sip of wine and then said, "Can you tell me the story of you and your friend?"

Su Qingluo raised her eyes and looked at Yun Zhou. Yun Zhou met her curious eyes and curled his lips slightly: "Can you tell me, when did you know?"

"At the beginning." Su Qingluo said bluntly: "This world is actually just a storybook, and you come from a place that is completely unfamiliar to me, but it's true."

Yun Zhou nodded woodenly, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Do you have a system?" Yun Zhou couldn't help but ask curiously.

Su Qingluo tilted her head in confusion: "What is that?"

Yunzhou:......

"Nothing." Just a wrong guess.

"Of course, what I knew at the beginning was only to Miaomiao, and I only found out about your affairs later." Su Qingluo held the wine glass with her fingertips.

Yun Zhou pretended to be calm and drank a sip of tea: "You, how did you know?"

She was really curious. Logically, if Wen Zhimiao told Su Qingluo, he should also tell her.

Besides, Wen Zhimiao couldn't speak very fluently at the moment, so he probably wouldn't tell Su Qingluo.

"Of course, I can't reveal how I know that for now." Su Qingluo deliberately kept it a secret.

She didn't want Yun Zhou to know that she could hear Wen Zhimiao's inner thoughts. It wasn't because she was on guard against anything, but she simply felt that it would be embarrassing for Yun Zhou to know some of the things she said.

Yunzhou is naturally thin-skinned.

Hearing Su Qingluo say that it was inconvenient to say, Yun Zhou puffed up his cheeks and muttered softly: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."

"She and I knew each other when we were very young, in an orphanage, which is a place dedicated to raising abandoned children. I was sent to the orphanage when I was three years old. I heard that my family was well off before, but then my father got addicted to gambling, my mother committed suicide by cutting her wrists, and my father disappeared."

"Well, mom and dad are parents." Yun Zhou said with a faint smile.

"My mother actually loves me very much, but she is too cowardly."

"Miaomiao and I are different. Miaomiao grew up in an orphanage. The director said that she was sent to the door on a snowy day. It was a grandmother who sent her there. The grandmother said that she saw her in the snow and she was almost frozen to death."

"She took the dean's surname and her name was also given by the dean. She has been in poor health since she was a child. She is often sick. The doctor said it was a congenital immune system defect. This may be a bit complicated. In short, she has been weak and sickly since she was a child and it is very difficult to cure."

"Besides, we are orphans. We don't have such good conditions for treatment. We can only rely on ourselves and be careful. Fortunately, the director is very kind to us."

"Miao Miao has been unable to tolerate any grievances since she was a child. If someone bullies us, she will fight back on the spot. She is obviously small, but she always stands in front of me and is not afraid of those boys hurting her."

Yun Zhou smiled and shook his head.

"But because of this, no one is willing to adopt her."

Yun Zhou picked out some things from their past, with the focus being on Wen Zhimiao.

From her description, Su Qingluo roughly understood why Wen Zhimiao was so important to Yun Zhou.

They are closer than blood relatives. They know each other's misfortunes and how hard the other has worked.

To this day, Yun Zhou still thinks it is an amazing thing that Wen Zhimiao was able to get into a top university despite his physical condition and later engage in a career he loves.

After Su Qingluo finished listening, her gaze stayed on Wen Zhimiao for a long time.

If she hadn't heard Yun Zhou say it, she would never have guessed that such a carefree guy who only knew how to be happy every day had such a past.

"But I think she should be very happy in this life." Yun Zhou supported his chin with one hand, with an unconcealable smile in his eyes.

Su Qingluo curled her lips lazily: "Maybe now, but I don't know about the future. After all, books must be read."

"She just talks about it, but when she really studies, she will secretly study. Well...she studies secretly. She likes to pretend."

I was like this in my previous life. I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I just like to pretend to be very relaxed in front of others and that I can get high scores without studying. In fact, I was memorizing books behind their backs.

Su Qingluo listened and took a sip of wine awkwardly. She was too embarrassed to say that she was like this when she was a child.

Sometimes she even doubts whether Wen Zhimiao is really not her biological child?

Of course, Su Qingluo would never take the initiative to talk about this past. After all, from Yun Zhou's complaining tone, it was clear that he disliked this kind of behavior.

"What about you?" Su Qingluo suddenly asked Yun Zhou.

"Huh?" Yun Zhou didn't understand for a moment.

"So what do you think of your life?" Su Qingluo asked unnaturally.

Yun Zhou looked at her awkward look and couldn't help laughing.

"I think..."

She deliberately drew out her tone and looked out the window lazily.

"Very good."

When Su Qingluo and others were getting anxious, Yun Zhou finally gave his answer.

"That's good."
