After listening to his complaints, Yin Xi raised her head in shock and caressed his handsome and charming face.
"Si Ye, you can't always think this way. If you change your perspective, perhaps your mood will improve significantly.
Although you weren't present during my past, we can walk through the future together hand in hand.
They were merely passersby in my developmental stages, while you are my… my destined one.
Don't focus too much on who knew whom first; instead, consider the duration of your time together."
"Mm." Upon hearing this, Qin Si Ye excitedly grasped her hand, "Xi Xi, are you saying these words because you've agreed to marry me?"
"Well, that depends on your performance," Yin Xi immediately turned away.
He hadn't even proposed to her yet, so how could she agree?
A handsome smile played on Qin Si Ye's lips. He turned her shoulders back towards him and gently kissed her lips.
After a while, he released her and said, "Xi Xi, I will definitely make you marry me with all your heart."
With a smile in her eyes, Yin Xi pushed him away, "Alright. Let's go quickly."
Before going downstairs, Yin Xi changed into a clean and tidy outfit to prevent the children from noticing what she had experienced that morning.
As the two drove into the Xing Lan Bay compound, they saw three little darlings playing in the morning dew.
Upon hearing the car, the three children looked in their direction in unison.
When they saw Yin Xi step out from the back seat, they first froze, then swiftly ran towards her.
"Mommy."
Yin Xi crouched down and happily embraced their small bodies.
Recalling Lu Yu Shan's words from that morning, her eyes welled up with tears again.
If she hadn't been coincidentally rescued by Brother Kai Cheng during that premeditated car accident years ago, she and her three children might have lost their lives.
After a moment, she released them and asked with a smile, "Did you miss me?"
"Of course, we missed you," Chen Chen replied, his eyebrows raised. "Mommy, your prediction was quite accurate. You said you might come back today, and you really did."
Yan Yan also vied to express her feelings, "Mommy, I missed you so much. Even though we video-called last night, it's different from seeing you in person.
Last night, I missed you so much that I couldn't fall asleep until very late."
Shuo Shuo, with the sharpest observation skills, gently touched the corners of her eyes and asked, "Mommy, why are you crying?"
"No, my dear. Mommy is just too excited to see you," Yin Xi quickly wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes, held his small hand, and replied with a smile.
At this moment, Qin Si Ye walked towards them, pushing Yin Xi's luggage. "Mommy rushed all the way here to see you sooner, she must be tired. Let's quickly take her inside to eat."
Hearing this, Yan Yan and Shuo Shuo each took one of Yin Xi's hands and walked towards the villa.
Chen Chen, however, retreated to Qin Si Ye's side and looked up, smiling as he asked, "Daddy, you left in such a hurry this morning and didn't tell us you were picking up Mommy. Was it to give us a surprise?"
Qin Si Ye paused, then looked down at him and replied, "Yes. Do you like surprises like this?"
"Of course, I do. I wish there were more surprises like this."
"Alright. Then, in the future, I will create more."
Listening to the conversation between father and son behind her, Yin Xi felt a mix of emotions.
While surprises were good, she no longer wished for them to happen in this manner.
The family had a joyful reunion dinner together.
After the meal, Qin Si Ye carried the luggage in one hand and held Yin Xi's hand as they walked upstairs.
Reaching the third floor, he pushed her luggage towards the master bedroom.
Yin Xi quickly tugged at his arm, pointing towards her own bedroom, "Si Ye, have you gone into the wrong room?"
"No," Qin Si Ye turned back to look at her, his attitude firm, "From today onwards, you'll move back into the master bedroom and live with me."
"Ah?" Yin Xi didn't react immediately.
"What do you mean 'ah'? We're like this now, and you still want to sleep in separate rooms?" Qin Si Ye frowned.
What did he mean by "like this"? Was he referring to their dating relationship, or did he mean they were truly together now?
