Yan Weixi's voice was very soft, as gentle as a breeze gliding across the water:

“Achi, that person told you that if you lose your vitality, Yan Weixi might hate you, or you might fail and it would all be for nothing.”

"do you remember?"

Shen Yunchi nodded without hesitation: "I remember."

Yan Weixi pinched his cheeks, calmly met his sincere gaze, and smiled gently.

"I don't dislike you. On the contrary... well... cough cough, you could say... I was attracted to your white hair at first sight."

When the second half of the sentence was mentioned, Yan Weixi turned her face away nervously and shyly, not daring to meet his gaze, for fear that she would be seen as a pervert.

After all, it would be incredibly cheesy to openly admit to being a lecher!

Upon hearing this, Shen Yunchi paused, remaining stunned for a long time.

He never expected that his Xixi would like him like this.

I didn't reject him at first glance.

I didn't find him strange.

His eyes unconsciously curved downwards, and the unease that had been lingering in his heart cleared up as if the clouds had parted.

He looked up sincerely at Yan Weixi, who was looking down at him, and said, "I'm very happy."

"Hmm... whatever makes you happy."

After only a second of eye contact, Yan Weixi looked away uncomfortably and blinked nervously.

Seeing that Shen Yunchi's expression was cheerful and not as serious as before, Yan Weixi's mood also improved.

I thought of the second sentence Yan Weixi had said before.

Shen Yunchi's expression changed, and his serious demeanor made Yan Weixi take him seriously as well.

"Xixi."

Yan Weixi: "What's wrong?"

Are you happy in that other world...?

Upon hearing this, Yan Weixi paused for a moment, then nodded solemnly, her eyes shining brightly as if she had heard the happiest thing.

"Mmm! I'm super happy!"

“I was very happy every day in that world. I had the best grandma with me and very good friends by my side.”

"My friends spoil me a lot, except when I always lose at games and don't get the items I want..."

"I'm very happy in another world!"

Listening to Yan Weixi's chatter, as if one could glimpse a hint of happiness in it, Shen Yunchi's gaze softened.

"Great."

Yan Weixi was puzzled by his words: "Hmm?"

She looked at Shen Yunchi.

Shen Yunchi's gaze was incredibly gentle, his face overflowing with tenderness like a full glass of water, and his voice couldn't hide the joy that was about to spill over:

"I didn't make the wrong bet."

"Isn't it?"

Yan Weixi realized what he meant, nodded vigorously, and smiled sincerely:

"Yes, we all won."

The sunlight gently shone upon them, silently cheering them on. At this moment, they were bathed in the warm sunlight, as if the frost of the past had melted away, and they would eventually usher in a bright future.

Because they all won.

Outside.

Ruan Yousheng stood at the door, leaning against the wall, his hands in his pockets, silently looking up at the white ceiling.

She had only been there a short time when she heard Yan Weixi say that she was very happy in another world.

But she had waited a very, very long time for these words.

The confusion that had been lingering in my mind was suddenly unlocked, like a key being inserted into a lock.

today.

She finally learned the answer to this high-stakes gamble, and all the fooling she had done had been worthwhile.

She breathed a sigh of relief, a look of joy leaping across her face, silently congratulating Yan Weixi.

she knows.

Her daughter, Xixi, has always been wonderful.

Without this damned plot constraint, she would soar freely in the boundless sky like a falcon breaking free from its shackles, creating endless possibilities.

Instead of a fixed tragedy.

Yan Weixi was especially happy when she got home. Just thinking about being able to eat a heart-shaped cake tomorrow made her extremely happy.

evening.

Shen Yunchi couldn't suppress his smile, secretly pleased with himself.

When she got home, her older brother Shen Mu saw her.

Shen Mu: "?"

"Looking at you like you're in love, did you find your little cake?"

The more Shen Mu looked at the boy, the more convinced he was that he was hiding something.

Besides that little girl, who else could elicit such a dramatic expression from him?

Shen Yunchi immediately stopped smiling, his eyes darting around uncomfortably: "What nonsense are you talking about, brother?"

Shen Mu shrugged: "Just tell me if I'm right or not!"

Shen Yunchi's ears felt slightly hot: "You're right."

Sensing the juicy gossip, Mr. and Mrs. Shen poked their heads out: "What? What?"

"That young lady is thinking of you?"

"Oh dear, this is no easy feat! Quick! Go tell the butler to set off firecrackers. Let's set them off for three days and three nights to celebrate Yun'er's birthday!"

Shen Yunchi: "?"

*

The Yan family.

As soon as Yan Weixi got home, she saw the familiar Aunt Luo.

At this moment, Aunt Luo was holding Bai Ci's arm, their faces beaming with happiness.

as well as……

The silent Huo Xunan.

Yan Nian only wants to read books.

Yan Yuexing lazily plays on her phone.

Huo Qiyan glared resentfully at Bai Ci and his wife through gritted teeth.

Yan Xian'an crossed his legs with a smug look on his face.

Huo Qiyan gave Yan Xian'an a forced smile, a menacing threat creeping across his face:

"Can't you control your wife?"

Yan Xian'an shrugged: "Is this any of my business? Didn't you see it was your wife who stuck to you?"

Unable to refute and deeply hurt, Huo Qiyan became even more resentful: "Can't you try to persuade him? Aren't you afraid your wife will be taken away?"

Upon hearing the last sentence, Yan Xian'an immediately sat up straight, stroked his chin as if sensing something, and said in a deep voice:

"you're right."

Huo Qiyan breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this guy is also afraid of not having a wife.

Huo Qiyan, after using all his skills to persuade Yan Xian'an to take charge of Bai Ci, finally succeeded.

He finally found the right words that resonated with Yan Xian'an.

Yan Xian'an lay back on the sofa, raised an eyebrow in a nonchalant manner, and said, "Little Huo, you're right, I need to give him some advice!"

When Huo Qiyan saw his appearance, he suddenly felt something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

The next second—

Yan Xian'an shouted at Luo Qing:

"Xiao Qing, your husband told me to tell him to stop letting my wife bother you!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Qiyan trembled violently, stiffened, and glared at Yan Xian'an with resentment.

He lowered his voice, gritting his teeth as he forced out the words, his anger barely contained:

"Yan Xian'an!"

Luo Qing spoke first: "Huo Qiyan!"

Huo Qiyan's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately shrank back as if by muscle reflex, becoming completely obedient.

Spicy balls.

Da Huo, you're going to be kneeling on a washboard today!
