“That won’t do, we need a balance between work and rest. How about we go on a family trip after mom and dad get back from abroad?

We can all relax together, what do you think? We get a few days off for New Year’s anyway, and even if you want to work overtime, the employees won’t be happy about it.”

Shen Jingxiu chuckled, “There’s no mandatory overtime, but overtime pays five times the salary.”

“Five times? Ha, capitalist, that’s a blatant temptation.”

Shen Jingxiu chuckled again, “You always think of the whole family. But it’s not easy to gather everyone for several days, so don’t wait for the whole family. Whenever you’re free, I’ll make the arrangements.”

“You’ll arrange it, and will you arrange a playmate too? It’s so boring by myself, not even someone to take photos with. Better if you come with me.”

Shen Jingxiu paused for two seconds, “That’s not impossible. Then I’ll wait for your notification.”

“Okay, we can also invite Fourth Brother; he always seems to have plenty of time, almost always on call.”

Shen Jingxiu’s fingers, holding the steering wheel, involuntarily tapped twice, “His club has gradually gotten on track, he might be very busy for the next while.”

“If he’s busy, forget it; it’s still up in the air. Do you want another chocolate or not? If not, I’m putting them away.”

Shen Jingxiu didn’t immediately answer Wenyan’s question, but instead asked,

“Is it that you just need someone to go out and have fun with? What if it’s the second brother?”

“Second brother?” Wenyan didn’t even have to think, “Of course, that’s fine too, though he seems very busy, way busier than me. But that just goes to show that he needs a break too. Right, the chocolate, do you still want it? If not, I’m putting it away.”

Shen Jingxiu glanced at Wenyan, “I don’t want it anymore.”

The car could speed up once they reached the suburbs.

Shen Jingxiu increased the speed, and by the time they arrived at Yongfu Cemetery, it was already half past one in the afternoon.

After asking a cemetery worker for directions to the three grave sites, they entered the cemetery.

The cemetery was vast; the three gravestones were scattered, and it took them nearly an hour to find Wenrou’s grave.

Although the photograph on the gravestone wasn’t as clear after years of exposure to the sun and rain, Wenyan recognized the person in the photo immediately, it was indeed Wenrou.

Wenyan bent down and gently placed the lilies he had been holding in front of Wenrou’s grave.

Shen Jingxiu followed and laid down a bouquet of white chrysanthemums.

The two bouquets were purchased on the way there.

Wenyan didn’t know what kind of flowers Wenrou liked, but she felt that the impression she received from Wenrou’s photo was akin to lilies, pure and noble.

After placing the flowers, Wenyan turned to Shen Jingxiu, “Big brother, I’d like to spend some time alone here. Could you please wait for me down there for a bit? I won’t be long.”

Shen Jingxiu naturally had no objections, “Sure, I’ll wait for you down below. You can see me as soon as you look down from here.”

“Yeah, thanks, big brother.”

“You don’t have to thank me, no need to be so formal with me. Let me say a few words to Aunt Wen as well.”

Wenyan nodded, and stepped aside to make room.

Shen Jingxiu solemnly bowed to the gravestone, “Aunt Wen, I’m Shen Jingxiu, Wenyan’s adoptive family’s eldest brother. Thank you for bringing Wenyan into this world and for protecting her. Don’t worry, we’ll continue to protect her. I swear it to you.”

Shen Jingxiu didn’t linger after speaking so formally, he left immediately.

Wenyan watched his back until he was far away, then she squatted down in front of Wenrou’s grave.

Once squatted down, Wenyan was level with Wenrou in the photo.

“Hi,” Wenyan said to the photo of Wenrou, smiling, “Aunt, hello, I’m also Wenyan, but a different Wenyan. Today, I’m wearing her clothes to come here; perhaps they still carry her scent. After you left, she and grandma depended on each other. Then she met a nice adoptive family. She must have been happy then. Although there was some unhappiness, but in the end, she was freed, and so I came.”

“She must have had no regrets when she left because I’ve dreamed of her, and she was happy. I don’t know if you’ve found each other over there. But she’s easy to recognize because she looks a lot like dad, and she has a red bird mark on her, which I think you must have left for her on purpose.”
