As she passed through the first floor, Gu Zi couldn’t help but notice that the layout of the house had barely changed.

Everything was impeccably clean. The space felt warm, familiar, lived-in—comforting in a way that stirred memories. She stepped into the backyard, where the vegetable garden was in full bloom, brimming with lush, seasonal greens. It was clear her parents had been tending to it with even more care than before—the soil practically vibrated with life.

"Our vegetable garden looks beautiful," Gu Zi said softly to Su Shen, a tender smile playing on her lips.

She pointed toward the clusters of vibrant tomatoes. "Look at those green ones, and the red ones too. If Su Li were here, he’d be the first to pluck one straight off the vine to eat. And then he’d make sure to share some with his big brother and little sister."

Su Shen pulled her close, wrapping an arm around her as he nodded. The garden was impressively managed—lush and fragrant, every plant thriving—but what touched him more was how many times Gu Zi had mentioned the children today.

This was the third time. He could feel her longing. Of course she missed them—deeply. And he knew it hadn’t been easy on her.

Inside, An Yun called out from the kitchen, beckoning them with her usual matriarchal warmth. "Come eat something quickly, then go upstairs and get some proper rest. Your room’s been locked all this time. I just opened it to air it out and changed all the bedding for you."

Gu Zi and Su Shen obediently sat down to eat.

Afterwards, Su Shen insisted that Gu Zi go upstairs and rest—he had errands to run. His car had been sitting at the front gate all this time. He’d previously asked Lin Cheng to drive it, but Lin Cheng had refused, so it had remained parked, untouched. Su Shen had just checked—there was still enough gas in the tank. Perfect for a quick outing.

Gu Zi headed to the room alone. After having been locked up so long, the doors and windows had all been opened for ventilation, though the air inside still carried a faint mustiness from disuse. It wasn’t overwhelming, just a whisper of stale time.

She lay down, and a sense of peace washed over her. The bed, the walls, the ceiling—they were all deeply familiar. It was home. Before she knew it, she had drifted off into a deep, dreamless sleep. fгeewebnovёl.com

By the time she woke up, dusk had fallen. Downstairs, Yang Zhen had arrived, bringing with her her little nephew, Yuan Yuan.

In the kitchen, An Yun and her husband were already bustling around, preparing dinner. Gu Zi got up to help but was immediately waved off by An Yun. "You’re pregnant," she said firmly. "No need to trouble yourself. Sit down and rest."

So Gu Zi sat with Yang Zhen and caught up. She listened, quietly absorbing the updates on Yang Zhen and Aunt Yang.

It turned out that Aunt Yang had been doing much better since Yang Zhen returned home. Each day she seemed livelier, more spirited. Most days she brought her grandson to the shop to help out. And whenever she had some free time, she’d go out shopping or take little day trips with her daughter. Life had become, at last, a series of gentle, happy moments.
