Yun Bixue stared at the snow outside and said, “No need, you can just wait at home. We will call you once we’re there. You can come out then.”

Xie Limo drove while Yun Bixue stared at the scenery outside. The scenery changed completely as they drove from the city to the village.

They could see the forest by the roadside and a small frozen lake. Rows of houses came into their view as well.

Yun Bixue said in amazement, “How lively would this place be if it was spring now? It would probably look something like a peach blossom spring, with a small bridge and lake running beneath it, green mountains and clear waters, flowers blooming and birds chirping around… Although it’s winter now, this snowy scenery is very beautiful as well. It’s totally different from the city.”

Hearing the amazement in Yun Bixue’s voice, Xie Limo said indulgently, “If you like it, I will bring you here to play when spring comes.”

Seeing the scenery of the countryside, Yun Bixue’s troubled feelings from her encounter with Jiang Jingshan earlier on largely dissipated as well. Indeed, the vast and unending views and clear blue skies lifted one’s spirits.

“I heard that there’s a world’s most beautiful village that is internationally renowned. What is it called again? I should check it up when we go back home. We can go there for a holiday next time!”

“Okay.” Xie Limo thought of how since the two of them had been together, he had never really brought her out to travel before. He could not help but feel a little guilty about this.

Not long after, Yun Bixue could sense some movement in her arms. She looked down and realized it was from Yangyang.

“Wow, Yangyang is awake. Yangyang, I am Auntie Yun…” Yun Bixue gazed at Yangyang excitedly, holding her small hand in hers as she shook it.

Her eyes were filled with gentleness.

She kept repeating herself as she said, “Call me Auntie, Auntie…” She kept saying it without stopping and was utterly delighted.

Xie Limo turned and saw how happy Yun Bixue was, especially the look of motherly love and love for children in her eyes. It was written all over her face.

In fact, he liked children as well. He began to realize even more that it was the right decision to want a child, and he looked forward to having a child with her.

He hoped that the child would look like her. He would definitely want to give his child all the best things in the world.

Xie Limo’s lips could not help but curve up into a smile the more he thought about it. His expression softened as well.

A cozy atmosphere spread in the car.

Yangyang stared at Yun Bixue with her wide eyes. She did not cry nor make a scene and merely giggled.

Yun Bixue kept asking her to call her ‘Auntie.’

Yangyang babbled as she tried to speak. “Aun… tie…”

The child could not speak clearly yet, but Yun Bixue could faintly hear the word ‘Auntie’ being articulated. She carried Yangyang up excitedly and planted a kiss on her cheek as she said, “Yangyang is so smart. Hehe…”

Yun Bixue said to Xie Limo excitedly, “Limo, did you hear that? She called me Auntie!”

“Yeah, I heard it.”

Ever since Old Master Yun died, Xie Limo had never really seen such a radiant smile on Yun Bixue’s face. When he saw that, his heart softened but ached at the same time.

He became even more resolved on having a child and decided to act on it quickly once they went back.

Yun Bixue liked children and played with the baby ecstatically throughout the journey.

Su Lenghan would often mention Yun Bixue in front of Yangyang usually, telling her about the gifts that Yun Bixue had sent. Su Lenghan would then take out a photo of Yun Bixue to show Yangyang and tell her that the gift was given to her by Auntie Yun.

Hence, Yun Bixue was no stranger to Yangyang. Since she loved children herself, was very patient, and had an affinity with children, Yangyang did not even cry once throughout the whole journey.

Once they entered Guan Tao village, and before Yun Bixue made the call, they could see a person standing not too far away. He seemed to have been standing there for quite some time as there was snow all over his body.

Xie Limo said gently, “That’s Su Lenghan. There’s no need to call him now.”
