Seeing Jiang Mian leave, the change in his facial expression wasn't particularly obvious, but the smile in his eyes was undeniable.

Lu Bozhou's appearance, combined with his usual expression, actually gives him a very cold and aloof look.

But looking at Jiang Mian at this moment, I felt an almost tender feeling.

He fed the ice cream in his hand to Jiang Mian's mouth, while keeping his other hand below to catch it, afraid that the melting cream would get on her.

Jiang Mian ate a few bites and then didn't want to eat anymore. He finished the rest in a few bites, slowly wiped his hands with a wet wipe, and then drove away with Jiang Mian and Lu Chaochi.

Looking at this scene, Gong Yan couldn't really say whether it was good or bad.

When Jiang Yu found out, he was quite nonchalant, saying, "Who cares? As long as Jiang Mian is happy."

"You seem quite nonchalant."

"I'm not entirely at ease. I just feel that compared to Jiang Mian being happy, nothing else seems that important."

Jiang Yu sighed softly as he spoke, "I also spent a long time mentally preparing myself."

After all, he used to feel an urge to attack whenever he saw Lu Bozhou.

Jiang Yu couldn't quite describe the feeling. Looking back now, in the five years since Jiang Mian's death, every time he saw Lu Bozhou, he wanted to take action, and the atmosphere seemed tense.

But it was usually his one-sided emotion. Jiang Yu used to think that Lu Bozhou was being lenient with him because he felt guilty, so he didn't hold it against him.

But now that I think about it, it's not that Lu Bozhou didn't want to hold it against him, but that after Jiang Mian died, his spirit and energy were also taken away, and he didn't even know how many of his three souls and seven spirits were taken away.

He didn't care about anything anymore.

Now that Jiang Mian is back, he's started caring about everything again.

They didn't even need a driver; they drove themselves, taking Jiang Mian and Lu Chaochi to the dock.

"Dad, where are we going fishing?" Lu Chaochi asked curiously.

Lu Bozhou glanced back in the rearview mirror, but Lu Chaochi couldn't meet his father's gaze in the mirror. He felt... well, it seemed like his father wasn't looking at him.

"At sea." Lu Bozhou's voice was low, and his deep gaze lingered on Jiang Mian in the rearview mirror.

"It'll be a while before we reach the dock. If you're tired, take a nap. There are blankets in the back," Lu Bozhou said.

Lu Chaochi was still excited when he heard this, so he obediently shook his head and said in a clear voice, "I'm not sleepy!"

But when he realized that his father didn't react, Lu Chaochi belatedly realized that his father wasn't looking at him in the rearview mirror, and that what he said just now was probably not directed at him either.

Sigh... The little cabbage is yellow in the field, it lost its mother right after it was born, and now its mother has finally come back.

In terms of behavior, it's as if he has no father.

However, Lu Chaochi still hopes that his parents' relationship can improve, and he feels that he needs to play a good role in mediating the conflict.

Lu Chaochi held the blanket in his small hands and handed it to Jiang Mian, "Mianmian, why don't you take a nap? Bozhou is worried you'll get tired."

Lu Bozhou glanced back in the rearview mirror again, and Lu Chaochi was now certain that his father was looking at him.

Lu Chaochi looked into his father's eyes in the rearview mirror and gave him a big smile.

Then I saw a gentle smile seem to be brewing in those eyes.

Jiang Mian looked up at the rearview mirror. "I'm not sleepy."

Luocheng is not by the sea, and it takes more than three hours to drive to the beach. She was worried that Lu Bozhou would get sleepy while driving, so after thinking for a moment, she took the initiative to start a conversation.

Are we taking a ferry out to sea?

If you're taking a ferry out to sea, you can book tickets in advance, and there are several types of boats to choose from, each with a different design and paint style, and different lights at night.

Jiang Mian picked up her phone, ready to see what different types of ships were available.

Before I even opened the webpage, I heard Lu Bozhou say, "Let's take a yacht."

Jiang Mian's fingers froze. She thought of the yacht she had said she would give to Qin Chu, the yacht that Lu Bozhou had ordered five years ago.

"I thought it had already been given to Qin Chu."

Jiang Mian was positioned so that she could see Lu Bozhou's profile and a slight curve at the corner of his lips. "He was incompetent and felt embarrassed to accept the money."

Lu Bozhou paused and then said, "Everything has been prepared. The boat has everything, and the weather has been great these past few days. You can eat at sea after fishing, and you can stay on the boat at night."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chaochi immediately became excited, "Living on the boat! That's fantastic!"

Lu Chaochi was very happy, his eyes were bright, and he was humming a tune that was hard to discern.

But children's energy is limited. Their excitement lasted for about an hour before they became incredibly sleepy, and their eyelids quickly closed up.

He was sleeping soundly in the car seat, and Jiang Mian covered him with a blanket.

The child, who was originally the loudest source of noise in the car, suddenly became quiet as soon as he fell asleep.

Jiang Mian wasn't sleepy, but she didn't know what to say to Lu Bozhou, so she picked up a tablet and decided to draw for a while.

As soon as I took out my tablet, I heard his deep voice, "Talk to me for a bit."

Jiang Mian had already taken out her stylus pen, but put it down again upon hearing this. "Tired? Do you want to find a service area to stop and rest for a while?"

Lu Bozhou didn't want to lie to her. "I'm not sleepy, but I'm afraid I'll get sleepy later and waste time. You can talk to me for a while."

With her and the child in the car, he could never possibly fall asleep. Even if he were about to faint, he could guarantee that he could bring the car to a safe stop first.

His desire was very direct; he wanted to talk to Jiang Mian.

Jiang Mian paused, her fingers unconsciously rubbing together on the tablet screen. "What are you trying to say?"

"Anything is fine, as long as it's what you say to me." Lu Bozhou's requirements were very low; just hearing her voice was enough, even if it was meaningless syllables or babbling.

He had always been hesitant to speak, but now, in this exchange where he could simply look away from the rearview mirror, everything became much easier to say.

Lu Bozhou said in a deep voice, "During the time you were unconscious, my biggest wish was to hear your voice again. I missed it so much that I was almost obsessed. Sometimes I even had auditory hallucinations. So, anything is fine as long as it's your voice."

From the words of those around her, Jiang Mian could understand to some extent the torment everyone had endured while she was in a coma, especially Lu Bozhou's.

Jiang Mian paused for a moment, then spoke in a low voice.

"The flowers have been infested with insects. Red spider mites are indeed quite annoying; no wonder you were so troubled back then."

At first glance, it seemed like a jumbled mess of words, but as Lu Bozhou listened, his expression gradually changed.

He suddenly realized that these weren't her words; she was reciting something else.

Some of the messages were ones he had sent to that old phone he thought would never receive a reply again.

Her old cell phone.

After saying this, Jiang Mian paused for only a few seconds, "The child has a sensitive stomach and can only drink amino acid formula. I tasted it, and it was bitter. If you were here, you definitely wouldn't let the child suffer like this."

Lu Bozhou's voice was a little hoarse, "Mianmian..."
