Chapter: 1745

"As she touched the koi fish, Autumn Ye said, 'Big Dragon, look! Older brother Ye Chen has come to see you. Do you remember him? He still remembers you too.'"

"The koi fish may not be afraid of people, but since it had some familiarity with Autumn Ye, it didn't give her any response."

"Autumn Ye was chatting away, looking up at Ye Chen and saying, 'My dad said that Big Dragon is only 30 years old this year. If he's well taken care of, he can live for another 40 years. We used to play with him when we were kids. And when we have children, they can play with it too!'"

Ye Chen didn't respond to Autumn Ye's words at all, but memories of his childhood kept flashing in his mind, which slowly brought them closer together."

"He even had a fantasy scene appear in his mind: if his parents were still alive and he hadn't lost his way, would he have already married Autumn Ye by now?"

"Perhaps, the one standing beside this koi fish tank with him right now isn't just the two of us, but also my own parents and Autumn Ye's parents."

Even, it's indeed possible to be surrounded by two or three half-grown children, calling their parents and asking them many questions about koi fish and memories. In fact, this was not Ye Chen's idle imagination.

He knew his father's personality; Ye Longying, one word nine dragons. If he were still alive, he would dare say he wouldn't marry Autumn Ye, and he would probably break his own leg.

Moreover, top-tier rich second-generation young people in Yankai usually get married early because their parents have already arranged a match for them since childhood, so they typically plan the wedding by the age of majority.

So, at that time, I might have already taken Autumn Ye as my wife when I was 22 years old.

Counting now, I might have been married to Autumn Ye for four years, and it would be normal to have two kids if things went smoothly.

Autumn Ye saw Ye Chen looking lost in thought and whispered to him, "Ye Chen, what are you thinking about?"

Ye Chen smiled wryly and said, "I was thinking of my parents."

Autumn Ye let out a soft sigh: "I just thought of Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye too. I was just thinking that if they hadn't met their untimely demise, we might have gotten married already, and our children might have already grown up. In that case, the people gathered here today might be three generations together."

Ye Chen clearly faltered.

Unexpectedly, Autumn Ye suddenly thought of it with herself.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, as Autumn Ye had always accepted her role as his fiancée from a young age. She had been pursuing this goal for so many years, and if she were to find him and marry him in the future, how could she face Cousin Ye and Lin Wanqiu? And what would happen when they met at the ancestral grave?

Autumn Ye didn't know that Ye Chen was struggling with these thoughts in his mind. She lightly pulled his hand, opening her mouth to say: "Sorry, Brother Ye Chen, I shouldn't have mentioned Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye, it must have hurt you..."

Ye Chen shook his head and smiled, saying: "It's okay, it's been so many years ago, it's not as painful now. It's more a kind of regret, that's all..."

Autumn Ye seamlessly intertwined her fingers with Ye Chen's, pulling him up to stand, laughing: "Brother Ye Chen, let's go out and have some fun!"

Ye Chen nodded and shook off the somber thoughts in his mind, strolling around the courtyard with Autumn Ye. They eventually went to the Houhai.

On this route, Autumn Ye didn't want to release her hand from his, and Ye Chen also didn't insist on it.

Although the current weather is extremely cold, for a true Beijing native like us, this is the best time to go ice-skating at Houhai...

So, the entire Houhai area was bustling with people, and the ice surface was filled with laughter and playfulness from young and old.

Ye Chen and Autumn Ye walked hand in hand to the ice rink, renting a two-seater small ice car from Old Man by the shore. Then Ye Chen took Autumn Ye and started playing freely on the ice. JrNovels.com
