Fu Yan had already gotten used to waiting for Xu Qinghuan.

After all these years of waiting, it's just a matter of time now.

As the sunlight of the evening gradually dimmed, Xu Qinghuan looked up at him.

So many years have passed, time seems to have left no trace on his face. Looking closely, there's still a youthful feeling.

"Smile more often, don't always wear that serious expression."

"Mm, alright," Fu Yan shi nodded, waiting for Xu Qinghuan to sit in before he got into the driver's seat himself.

He didn't bring his assistant with him today. On the drive back, he made Xu Qinghuan feel like they were an ordinary couple, going home from work together, cooking a meal together, and falling asleep in each other's arms.

Unfortunately...

Fu Yan was never an ordinary person.

Xue Qinghuan wanted to ask about his mother, but after thinking about it, she didn't say anything in the end.

She didn't want to break the peaceful quiet of this world they had shared.

Back at Dongyue Bay, Fu Yan returned to the kitchen after changing his clothes. Xu Qinghuan followed him.

"Today I'm going to cook, you rest for a while."

Although he kept saying he wasn't tired, the fatigue on his face was undeniable! Xu Qinghuan also knew how many things needed to go through Fu's hands every day at the Fu Corporation. Even with such a busy schedule, he still made time to be with her.

"I'd like to stay with you a little longer." Fu Yan shi didn't leave, but continued his work of tidying up the vegetables.

Xu Qinghuan laughed and also got busy, enjoying this time alone with him.

But this happiness didn't last long, as the doorbell rang from outside.

Fu Yan's hand froze, and he instinctively looked at Xu Qinghuan. The latter blinked, then asked, "Should I hide Are they your family"

"Don't hide, no one needs to hide."

But...

"Xu Qinghuan, this is your home, our home."

His words inexplicably gave Xu Qinghuan a lot of courage.

She nodded. "Okay, let's go open the door together."

As I reached the entrance hall, the mirror on the door revealed the visitor — it was Xia Wan Yu.

Fu Yan'shi frowned, Xu Qinghuan could feel how much he didn't want to agree with her.

After a pause, Xu Qinghuan softly spoke, "You talk to Xia Wan'yu alone. I'll go make some food! At this point, even if you dislike her, prioritize stabilizing your mother's emotions first and avoid any conflict with her."

He

didn't want to see Xia Wan Yu, so she wanted to leave.

Furthermore, she has to deal with Ms. Zheng Qiu-zhi, who understands Fu Yan-shi's current predicament and also worries about his mother's health condition, leaving her in a difficult position.

He's just keeping it to himself.

"Mm." Fu Yan shi felt that it wasn't appropriate for the two of them to meet at this time, so he agreed.

Only after watching Xu Qinghuan return to the kitchen did Fu Yan open the door.

But he didn't invite Xia Wan to come in at all, he just stood at the door.

"Anything"

"It was just my uncle who told me that you agreed to pretend to be my boyfriend/girlfriend."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Fu Yan sighed, frowning. "I didn't say anything."

"Oh, then I'll just leave! Uncle said you agreed to let me come with you to the hospital to visit your mother. Since that didn't happen, then I'll be going." With that, Xia Wan Yu turned and was about to leave.

Suddenly, Fu Yan shi called her to stop.
