On the other hand, He Qiang was sweating bullets.

Because he realized that this little girl might just be a gaming prodigy!

Playing shooting games, An Nannan could hit eight or nine out of ten shots.

On the motorcycle racing game, she left He Qiang a lap and a half behind.

In the whack-a-mole, her accuracy rate was near perfect!

Even in the fishing game, which He Qiang was most proud of, An Nannan caught a golden koi on her first try.

"Sis, take me to play games!"

He Qiang admitted defeat, played fair and square, and started calling a little girl 'sister' when asking for help.

The little girl stood with hands on hips, her clean little face raised, a row of small white teeth showing as her proud and crisp laughter echoed amongst them.

Xu Musen and An Nuannuan exchanged glances and couldn't help but smile, finding the situation quite amusing.

By the time they left the arcade, it was already afternoon.

After all, An Nannan was just a child, so it was better to send them home early.

So, Xu Musen took the sisters on the bus, and He Qiang caught another bus, bidding farewell before setting off on their separate ways.

The outside sun was also gradually setting, and the entire sky reflected a golden glow.

The summer evening breeze and the gently rocking public bus gave the feeling of dozing off in a rocking chair.

Xu Musen suddenly felt a small body pressing close to his own.

An Nannan, who was originally holding onto her sister's wheelchair, was after all just a child. She had run around so much today, had her fill of indulgent food, and played for so long that now, lulled by the bus, she felt sleepy.

A pair of little hands subconsciously sought something to lean on, and ended up hugging Xu Musen's thigh.

The usually clever and quirky little girl looked as innocent and dazed as An Nuannuan when asleep.

"Nannan had a lot of fun today," said An Nuannuan softly.

"What about you?" Xu Musen asked her with a smile.

An Nuannuan lifted her eyes to his, her tender lips curving slightly upwards: "I also had a lot of fun. Thank you for accompanying me out."

"No need to thank me, we're friends after all," Xu Musen replied, feeling particularly at ease that day.

However, An Nuannuan's heart suddenly echoed with the words Xu Musen had said before.

"If you start dating in the future, we can't play together every day like this..."

An Nuannuan didn't understand much about dating, but she truly enjoyed the feeling of playing with him.

A thought suddenly rose in her head, what if he was the one to start dating first?

Would they also not be able to play together anymore?

"Xu Musen..."

"Hmm?"

But An Nuannuan suddenly didn't know how to ask, hesitating as she pursed her lips, and finally, she slowly began to speak.

"If you... start dating in the future, does that mean we can't play together anymore?"

Xu Musen was taken aback: "Why would you ask that?"

"You said it yesterday at school," she replied.

Xu Musen remembered indeed asking that question.

It was just that at that time, Xu Musen felt that he also had some special emotions beyond friendship involved.

What was An Nuannuan thinking at this moment?

Xu Musen looked into her eyes, the innocent peach-blossom eyes clear but now containing an uncommon shyness.

Forget it, let's not trouble this simple girl.

Xu Musen smiled, and instead of directly answering, he said, "How about this, if I ever want to start dating, I'll give you a heads-up in advance, how does that sound?"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that his words might have an ambiguous undertone.

But An Nuannuan seemed particularly satisfied with his answer, nodding her head earnestly and cheerfully.

She held up her pinky: "Pinky promise."

Xu Musen looked at her for a second or two, smiled, and agreed: "Okay."

They made a pinky promise.

An Nuannuan, however, did not let go but held onto his pinky, while An Nannan hugged his thigh in a drowsy embrace.

These sisters...

After getting out of the car, An Nannan was still a bit sleepy, as it's hard to rouse children once they fall asleep.

"Let her sleep a little longer."

Xu Musen bent down and the little girl naturally flopped onto his back. He easily hoisted her up, supporting her small behind.

With one hand, he pushed the wheelchair, beginning the walk to their home.

This scene oddly resembled that of a family of three.

As Xu Musen reached the front door of the villa, Aunty Xiang greeted them as if she knew they were coming, already waiting at the entrance.

"They must have had a blast today."

Aunty Xiang looked at the sleeping An Nannan, unable to contain her smile as she gently took An Nannan into her arms.

"Thank you for taking care of them. Stay for dinner with us today?"

Aunty Xiang invited him.

Xu Musen shook his head, "I have to prepare for the college entrance exam tomorrow, and I still need to take care of some things at home tonight."

"Alright, then I'll drive you home."

"No need, no need. I'll just take the bus and I'll be home in no time. It's no trouble."

Xu Musen declined the offer, waving at An Nuannuan, "Good luck on the college entrance exam."

"You too."

...

After putting the sisters to bed,

Aunty Xiang took out a camera; in fact, she had also been quietly following them around all day.

Inside the camera were photos of them playing and eating together.

"It's been so long since I've seen them this happy..." Aunty Xiang, looking at the pictures, was smiling tenderly.

She picked up the last photo—it was of Xu Musen carrying An Nannan and pushing An Nuannuan in the wheelchair, an especially heartwarming sight under the setting sun.

She picked up the phone and dialed.

"Mr. Liang, Nuannan and Nannan are back. They had a great time, and Nannan even fell asleep from exhaustion. Plus, that boy was quite well-behaved."

The voice on the phone was kind, "That's good, it seems this young man has decent character. After the college entrance exam, let's fund his project. I'd like to see how far this interesting young man can go."

"Understood."

...

At this moment, Yao Mingyue was also back home.

Upon hearing that Xu Musen had gone out again, she instinctively suspected that he was meeting that girl again.

These past days, the thought alone agitated her heart.

She opened her wardrobe and took out a shirt with only Xu Musen's signature.

"Life would be perfect if it were like the first encounter..."

Yao Mingyue silently recited in her heart, her lips suddenly curving into a smile.

At the very least, she had definitely left a deep, unique impression in his heart!

With that little seed planted, Yao Mingyue did not believe it wouldn't sprout!

Then, she took out an album.

The pictures inside depicted various stages of Xu Musen's life, from childhood to the present, even including some when he was a bare-bottomed toddler.

There were many others, obviously cut from group photos and pasted here by themselves.

Yao Mingyue's face flushed with excitement as she looked at them.

She wondered if that guy had improved...

And after all, he could only be hers, should he dare to mess around!

Suddenly, she grabbed the scissors beside her pillow.

Snip, snip!

Of course, she picked up the graduation photo she had taken the day before and looked at her classmates without any emotion.

Instead, she cut out the portion with just herself and Xu Musen.

Looking at Xu Musen's expression as he turned to look at her, Yao Mingyue's cheeks reddened.

She pasted the photo of the two of them on a separate page of the album.

At the same time, she looked at the two hotel cards on her bedside table, a glint of light flashing in her eyes...
