Late at night, the man stood dazed on the second-floor terrace.
I slowly walked toward him, and he suddenly called out to , "Wanwan."
"I’m here, Snake Brother." I hugged Yu Longting’s waist from behind, intending to suggest he get so rest early.
Then I heard Yu Longting let out a long sigh, "Where exactly... did you co from?"
Every word he spoke was filled with deep confusion.
"I’m definitely not grown from the earth." I rubbed my head against his back, thinking that soon we will have our own little ho.
A ho just for us, bought with the money I earned myself.
My hand was suddenly tightly wrapped by a large, cool palm. Yu Longting’s voice was as long as a cello echoing from a mountain valley, "Unreal."
"Huh?"
"Even now, it feels like I’m dreaming. Since the day I t you, life has felt unreal."
"Then... let’s try to have a child. Wouldn’t the child’s birth make it feel real?"
Yu Longting suddenly turned around and pressed firmly against the railing, his deep black eyes looking as if penetrating my entire body and soul, "That would feel even more unreal. Soone like , living... such a life?"
"Why not? I think it’s possible." I felt that if he just exerted a little force, he could send , along with the railing, down.
Yet I relaxed my center of gravity entirely, leaning back, feeling the scorching heat of his palm against my lower back, "Mom, Dad, your father- and mother-in-law, our grandpa, Xiao Li, Beichen, the bosses, and so many others— they are all real, flesh-and-blood parts of your life."
"Su Wan! I don’t care where you ca from; once you’re in my life, I won’t allow you to leave." Yu Longting ground out each word, biting as if tearing apart and swallowing whole.
He still seed as insecure as before, worried that he couldn’t grasp the happiness in his palm, as if I would leave him at any mont.
What exactly has this child gone through to have such a lack of security??
"That’s for sure, Yu Longting, you’ve been single for so long, you’ve definitely been waiting... for my arrival. I am your destined match; no one can replace ." Anyway, there was no one else, so I just said so possessive, cheesy words.

The next day I woke up holding Dumpling, not having had the chance to stretch.
Suddenly Dumpling’s eyes filled with a kind of horrified expression, making initially think sothing was on my face.
I touched my face, confused about how it had changed.
To my surprise, Dumpling looked at as if he’d seen a ghost, and he had seen suffering from Blood-weeping Syndro, so he shouldn’t be so startled.
Then Dumpling’s little hand quickly touched my forehead, and suddenly a blood-red scene appeared in my mind.
Blood-red spider webs spread throughout our living room, and the people there were wrapped as mummies in the webs.
So were on the sofa, others lay on the ground.
On the ground were also the champagne bottles from last night and the fruit basket we didn’t finish eating.
Was this... was this sothing Dumpling dread of, or could he perceive what was actually happening downstairs?
After all, the blood of the Su Family also ran through Dumpling’s veins, and he likely inherited my Spiritual Eye. I couldn’t process what I saw at the mont.
I grabbed Dumpling’s small hand and placed it on Yu Longting’s forehead.
Yu Longting rarely woke up later than I did; you could almost say he didn’t need sleep.
Only yesterday did he sleep especially deeply, and he even woke up later than I this morning. When Dumpling’s finger touched his forehead, he lazily opened his eyes.
After Dumpling’s hand stayed on Yu Longting’s forehead for over ten seconds, the sharp and fierce look flashed in Yu Longting’s opened eyes, "Wanwan, sothing’s happened."
"Sothing actually happened? I thought Dumpling had a nightmare and needed comfort." I watched Yu Longting get up and imdiately head downstairs.
I quickly picked up Dumpling, who had a serious expression, put on my slippers, and followed him.
Downstairs was already a scene of chaos, exactly as Dumpling had shown earlier.
Were it not for Yu Longting standing beside , providing my support and dependency, I might have already ntally crumbled, unable to control my emotions.
Xiao Li, Beichen, Chen Decheng, and Chen Shufen were all wrapped from head to toe in spider silk.
Life or death unknown...
Yu Longting said gravely, "Dumpling has the temperant to endure Level Eight physical pain, and if things weren’t severe enough, he wouldn’t have panicked and sought our help."
"Shenshen!! Yu Rongling! And those two, I don’t know their situation, I’ll check the guest room." Uncertain about their situation, I stepped directly with a Mysterious Step to the guest room door, turned the doorknob, and went inside.
