Nan Shu was startled by Chen Jingyan's words and subconsciously glanced at Chen Jingyan's face.

They breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Chen Jingyan had not woken up.

She carefully put away the divorce agreement, then looked at Chen Jingyan with a look of guilt in her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Brother Jingyan, this is the only way I can achieve my goal. I hope you won't blame me when you wake up and find out about this."

Nan Shu said these words softly, and then she immediately turned around and walked out of the private room.

After instructing the waiter to take care of Chen Jingyan, Nan Shu left with the divorce papers.

She felt a mix of emotions. For the past few years, Chen Jingyan had been taking care of her and her son. Although she had helped Chen Jingyan in the past, so many years had passed and she had long since repaid that debt of gratitude.

Ultimately, she had let Chen Jingyan down.

Nan Shu had been feeling down ever since she met Chen Jingyan, until she returned home and saw the two little ones, which made her feel a little more relaxed.

Enen ran towards Nan Shu with Nuomi in her arms, reaching out for a hug.

Nan Shu reached out and nodded, her eyes full of helplessness.

Nan Shu picked up Enen and shook her a couple of times. Seeing that Nuomi looked a little forlorn, she immediately looked at Enen.

"Hmm, do you want Mommy to hug Nuomi too?"

"Hmm, I have a good relationship with Nuomi, so I'm naturally willing," she nodded and said in a childish voice.

"I do!"

Hearing the conversation between Enen and Nan Shu, Nuomi's little face immediately turned red, and she kept rubbing the hem of her clothes, looking shy.

Seeing Nuomi like this, Nan Shu's heart softened immediately. She gently put Enen down and carefully picked up Nuomi.

This was the first time she had taken the initiative to hug Nuomi, and it happened after Lin Xi left.

Nuomi was lighter than she had imagined, nestled obediently on her shoulder, her little hands tightly wrapped around her neck.

Perhaps it was the natural bond between mother and daughter, but Nan Shu felt a mix of sadness and joy.

It's sad that she hasn't been able to stay by Nuomi's side even though Nuomi has grown up so much.

The good news is that Nuomi has finally started to accept her, although not as her mother yet.

"Auntie, are you unhappy?"

Just as Nan Shu was lost in thought, Nuomi suddenly asked cautiously.

Upon hearing Nuomi's words, Nan Shu was taken aback and subconsciously looked at Nuomi.

"Nuomi, why would you say that?"

Was her emotion really that obvious?

Nuomi nodded, looking serious.

"I noticed that Auntie is acting differently than usual. Auntie, what's wrong?"

Upon hearing Nuomi's words, Enen also came over and hugged Nan Shu's leg.

"Mommy, what's wrong with you?"

Nan Shu couldn't be happy when she thought about what she had done today, but seeing how worried the two children were about her, she could only force herself to smile.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Nan Shu reached out and rubbed Enen's head.

Nuomi suddenly struggled to get down, and Enen also loosened her grip on Nan Shu's legs.

Nan Shu was puzzled and put down Nuomi. She then saw the two children run off in the same direction.

Nan Shu shook her head helplessly.

They're still just kids; even if they have something on their mind, they can only put it off for a little while.

I was just worried about her, and now she's off having fun again.

Nan Shu returned to her room, put away the divorce agreement, and was about to go to the kitchen to cook dinner for her two children herself.

As soon as I stepped out of the bedroom, I saw Qi Yuye leading two children out of the bedroom.

Nan Shu was taken aback when she saw Qi Yuye's face, which showed signs of fatigue.

She thought Qi Yuye wasn't home...

Qi Yuye looked at Nan Shu and saw that she was indeed unhappy, just as Nuomi and Enen had said. His eyes immediately became more inquisitive.

"Nuomi said you're unhappy, what happened?"

Qi Yuye suddenly spoke, startling Nan Shu.

"N-nothing."

Nan Shu quickly waved her hand, wishing she could immediately dive into the kitchen to escape the probing gazes of the father and his two sons.

Qi Yuye noticed something was wrong from Nan Shu's expression, but seeing that Nan Shu was unwilling to say more, he didn't ask any further questions.

He nodded, then winked at the two children.

Nuomi and Enen understood and immediately hopped over to Nan Shu, pulling her to sit down on the sofa.

"Mommy, our kindergarten teacher taught us some new tongue twisters today. Can I recite them for you?"

"Mmm," she said, looking at Nan Shu with an expectant expression, as if presenting a treasure.

Not to be outdone, Nuomi chimed in.

"Auntie, Nuomi doesn't know tongue twisters, but Nuomi can dance. How about Nuomi dances for you?"

Nan Shu knew exactly what the two children meant; they just wanted to make her happy.

Nan Shu felt a surge of emotion, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Nuomi and Enen saw the glistening tears in Nan Shu's eyes and thought she was even more heartbroken, so they looked at Qi Yuye with helpless expressions.

Qi Yuye paused for a moment, then remained silent.

Seeing the two children like this, Nan Shu couldn't help but chuckle and looked at Qi Yuye teasingly.

"Both children have performances. What about you? What performance have you prepared?"

Nuomi and Enen stared at Qi Yuye with even wider eyes after hearing Nan Shu's words.

Qi Yuye remained calm and composed, speaking with an unwavering expression.

"All I need to do is direct them."

"Dad, you're cheating!"

"That's cheating!"

Nan Shu and the two children spoke at the same time, as if they wouldn't give up until Qi Yuye gave in.

Qi Yuye smiled helplessly, "Alright, alright, how about I tell your mother and you all a story?"

Nuomi and Enen looked at Qi Yuye with expectant eyes as soon as they heard that he was going to tell a story.

Nan Shu was also very curious. How could someone as serious as Qi Yuye tell stories?

"Okay, okay, Nuomi loves listening to stories!"

Nuomi and Enen clapped their hands and ran to sit obediently next to Qi Yuye.

Seeing the two children run to Qi Yuye's side in the blink of an eye, Nan Shu shook her head helplessly and then followed them over.

Qi Yuye glanced at Nan Shu meaningfully, then spoke slowly and deliberately.

"It was autumn, and a girl married the person she loved most in her life..."

Qi Yuye's voice was very deep, and his magnetic tone made the story he was telling even more real.

The two children listened with great interest, but Nan Shu felt increasingly uneasy.

Why does Qi Yuye's story sound so familiar?

Nan Shu listened attentively, and scenes from the past gradually surfaced in her mind.

Those bitter, sweet, and all sorts of memories surged in like the sea.

Nan Shu never expected that Qi Yuye would remember their past so clearly.

"Nan Shu..."

Qi Yuye's voice suddenly rang in Nan Shu's ear, startling her. Feeling the warmth on her ear, Nan Shu's face instantly turned red.

"What's wrong?"

Nan Shu stepped back, her voice barely audible.

"Don't get distracted while listening to the story."

Qi Yuye's eyes were filled with a smile, as if he had successfully pulled off a prank.
