A Brand New Love/ A Fresh Romance’

This question caused Si Mingchen to suddenly freeze.

For a moment he gazed at Wen Zhi, and asked in a low voice, “You know about this?”

Wen Zhi gently nodded, “I found it in my suitcase.”

Si Mingchen should have expected this to happen and could not help but feel ashamed. He even wanted to hide this matter for the time being to avoid Wen Zhi’s emotional turmoil.

But at the moment, Wen Zhi’s ability to withstand the situation was obviously stronger than what he predicted.

“When did you find out?”

“Before participating in the variety show.”

Since the truth had already been revealed, and the secret that had been hanging between them had disappeared, Si Mingchen no longer had any worries.

He smiled bitterly, “When we divorced, you said there was no love between us, so I let go.”

“How could there be no love?” Wen Zhi felt incredulous, unable to understand how their four years of marriage had led to this point.

“Because you thought I liked Sang Qi?”

Si Ming Shen: “Well.”

Wen Zhi sighs.

Regarding what happened with Sang Qi, he didn’t remember any of it. His only memories of Sang Qi were from high school.

But he was sure that even if there were only him and Sang Qi left on Earth, they still wouldn’t be together. Sang Qi was not his type at all.

Sang Qi was not his type at all.

“Fortunately, I lost my memory, otherwise, we might have really gotten divorced.”

Wen Zhi said, hugging Si Mingchen with a sense of joy at having regained something lost. He also gradually understood why Si Mingchen had been distant from him before.

Si Mingchen sat on the bed, holding Wen Zhi in his lap, his chin resting on his neck, “Blame me for not asking all those questions and almost causing a lifelong regret.”

Wen Zhi looked at Si Mingchen.

A wave of bittersweet feelings surged in his heart

In fact, even now, he couldn’t be completely sure whether he had dated Sang Qi or not.

Although the probability was one in ten thousand.

If he had indeed had a relationship with Sang Qi, it wasn’t surprising that Si Mingchen would be sensitive about it.

“Moreover, you filed for divorce with me after Sang Qi transferred his foreign assets back to the country. At that time, I thought it was you who got tired of me.”

Si Mingchen’s voice was heavy, as if he was peeling open his most vulnerable part and showing it to Wen Zhi.

“In my eyes, our marriage was actually a failure. I always felt that no matter what I did, you were never happy. In the four years, you never smiled at me like you do now. In my eyes, this marriage was very painful for you. So, I decided to give you freedom.”

Wen Zhi’s heart ached for a moment.

He tightened his arms around Si Mingchen’s back, gently stroking it as if comforting a child. “Si Si, don’t be sad. Although I have lost my memory, I can guarantee that I never had such intentions and never grew tired of you.

As he spoke, Wen Zhi felt a little sad himself.

He seemed to have no evidence to prove the truth of his words.

Si Mingchen said, “I believe you.”

Wen Zhi looked up suddenly, “Really?”

Si Mingchen gave his reasons, “I think even if a person’s brain malfunctions and memories become distorted, the heart connected to emotions remains unchanged. Your feelings and emotions towards someone won’t change just because of simple memory loss. If you didn’t like me, your instincts would have resisted being close to me.”

Wen Zhi clapped his hands, “Si Si is so understanding.”

Si Mingchen: “I blame myself for not thinking this through earlier. I only realized it recently.”

Wen Zhi nuzzled against him, “It’s okay, it’s not too late to know.”

The night was quietly peaceful, and on this night, Si Mingchen held Wen Zhi and slept soundly.

The little winter melon that has been inseparable from his hand, remained in the wardrobe and didn’t make an appearance.

It was just after dawn that Jiang Xingnan returned to their room. He stared at the suitcase and thought about leaving, but the high penalty he would have to bear made him give up that idea.

He didn’t have much money on hand and couldn’t afford such a loss.

The room door had been repaired and was back in place, thanks to Sang Qi’s request for the program team to fix it last night.

At this time, Sang Qi was still sleeping.

Jiang Xingnan washed his face, changed his clothes, and prepared for the recording.

The morning of the inn was very pleasantly lit. As it was situated in a scenic area, the air was fresh and the sunrise was very beautiful.

Wen Zhi was in a good mood today. He got up in the morning with a big appetite and ate two sandwiches, three bowls of soup, and four bacon rolls in one go.

The camera was already on, capturing Wen Zhi’s eating scene for the audience.

Today was quite unusual as Si Mingchen hadn’t woken up yet.

Wen Zhi didn’t call him, thinking that after so many years, Si Mingchen finally had a peaceful sleep, so he let him be for a while. There were no arrangements for the morning, so it was fine for him to sleep a little longer.

In his impression, Si Mingchen was always diligent, getting up early and going to bed late. Being in his middle age, he should take care of himself.

He didn’t want a bald husband.

Although he would also love his bald husband.

[Where’s President Si?]

[Wen Zhi eats so much; this is what I eat in a day.]

[I’m curious about their makeup. I feel like Wen Zhi is bare-faced, but his skin is so good for a 27-year-old.]

[He must be good at taking care of his skin, that’s why it looks so smooth.]

At this moment, the bedroom door was pushed open. Si Mingchen appeared in front of the camera, dressed in a simple white home outfit.

Wen Zhi’s eyes brightened.

Sure enough, he was a face lover

Day after day, he was getting addicted to Si Mingchen’s face and couldn’t get enough of it.

Moreover, Si Mingchen’s also had great physique.

Although it was just an ordinary white sweatshirt, his strong and muscular chest was faintly visible.

Wen Zhi’s gaze gradually moved downward.

Hmm…that area looks quite big too.

Since their all-night conversation yesterday, Wen Zhi had been feeling inexplicably shy, especially when he made eye contact with Si Mingchen now. He felt like they were a newlywed couple enjoying their honeymoon period.

“Good morning, Zhi zhi.”

Wen Zhi held a coffee cup and quietly lowered his eyes, “Mhmm.”

Si Mingchen sat in front of Wen Zhi, observing his every move, “Do you have any plans for the morning?”

Wen Zhi handed Si Mingchen a map of nearby places to visit and hurriedly said, “You decide.”

Si Mingchen raised an eyebrow, sensing that something was off with Wen Zhi today.

“Where do you want to go?”

“I’ll follow your lead.” Wen Zhi’s voice was sweet, hiding a hint of shyness

Si Mingchen: “Then let’s go to the wild stream for fishing.”

Wen Zhi: “Okay.”

With everything settled, Si Mingchen began to pack up their tools and bags, preparing to take Wen Zhi out for a date.

After a while, he stood at the door. “Ready?”

Wen Zhi was fidgeting in the wardrobe. “Not yet.”

Si Mingchen knew Wen Zhi was changing clothes, but he thought the outfit he was wearing while having breakfast was also fine and there was no need to change.

Ten minutes later, Wen Zhi gently pushed open the door.

Si Mingchen, who was leaning in front of the cabinet, was stunned.

Immediately, a smile spread across his face. “We’re going fishing.”

“I know,” Wen Zhi replied.

Si Mingchen looked at him, “Is this outfit convenient for fishing?”

Wen Zhi nodded: “Mm.”

Just now, Wen Zhi almost tried on all the clothes he brought.

Technically speaking, he and Si Mingchen could be considered a reunited couple

So, he attached great importance to today’s date.

But his clothes were all pretty average and nothing particularly eye-catching. After racking his brains for a long time, he changed into a set of yellow suspender shorts with a white backpack and a small yellow duck cap.

Wen Zhi felt like he was the most youthful and beautiful participant in the entire program.

Si Mingchen said lightly, “Go change into something else; it’s cold outside, and you might catch a cold dressed like that.”

Wen Zhi was unwilling, “I don’t want to change, I’m not cold.”

[Hahaha, look at Wen Zhi’s little yellow shoes.]

[Haha, it really is a little yellow duck outfit? Even the pockets have little duck logos.]

[Indeed, Wen Baby is always so fashionable.]

[Oh my goodness, is this outfit meant for an eighteen-year-old?]

Si Mingchen tried to persuade him, “The current temperature is 14 degrees; you need to wear long sleeves and pants, or else you might catch a cold and get a fever and have to take medicine.”

Wen Zhi glanced at his own clothes again and remained adamant, “Can I just get a jacket? I won’t feel cold with a jacket on.”

Si Mingchen softened his tone and said, “Be good, Zhi Zhi.”

As soon as Wen Zhi heard it, he immediately became as energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He turned his head and ran into the wardrobe, quickly taking off his clothes in no time.

When he came out again, he was now wearing a green sportswear.

Si Mingchen held his hand and said, “You look good like this too.”

Wen Zhi grumbled, “I know,” and then put on a green dinosaur hat.

Si Mingchen looked at the colour of the hat and adjusted it for him.

[Laughs to death, Wen Zhi looks like the rebellious me in high school who wouldn’t wear long johns in winter.] (Underpants with closely fitted legs that extend to the wearer’s ankles.)

[Zhi Zhi? Shouldn’t it be Wen Zhi?]

[It seems that in the morning, President Si, also called Wen Zhi “Zhi Zhi.]

[Wow, Wen Zhi loves to go to extremes! It’s either red or green.]

[At the sight of the green hat, President Si fell silent.]
