"I'll return it to you." Ye Zhen was too lazy to look at him, he extended his hand and handed the box over.

Yun Xuan's face was filled with surprise and joy, she straightened his body and said, "You really want to give it back to me?"

"It's fine if you don't want to." Ye Zhen suddenly retracted his hand and sat up.

"Yes, yes, yes!" In a moment of desperation, Yun Xuan threw herself into the box and also jumped into Ye Zhen's embrace.

Ye Zhen resisted the urge to ravage her while he was still in his embrace, and stood up with a slight frown, "Come with me to a place tomorrow!"

He woke up early in the morning and it was dawn.

When Yun Xuan opened her eyes, she found that the two children had disappeared. Only after asking the servant did she find out that Ye Zhen had brought them to the back of the mountain for morning training.

The location of the villa was halfway up the mountain. The air was moist, and there was a forest nearby. The morning air was especially fresh, suitable for morning training.

Yun Xuan rushed to the door and caught up with the three of them.

After climbing up the mountain for a while, Yun Xiaoke started to sound tired. Yun Xuan carried Yun Xiaoke in her arms as she lay on Ye Zhen's back.

Ye Zhen turned his head, and extended his palm in front of her.

Yun Xuan hesitated as she reached out his hand, but was suddenly grabbed by Ye Zhen's big hand, and almost fell into his embrace.

"I won't be tired if I pull you along."

Yun Xuan sweated, she did not seem to say that she was tired, right?

The two kids quickly covered their eyes and peeked through their fingers at Mommy's blushing face.

Arriving at the top of the mountain, just as the sun was coming out from the clouds, Yun Xuan stood at the top of the mountain, thinking.

The last time she saw the sun rise was five years ago, when she had just lost her life and her mother had died and she had run out into the wilderness in the middle of the night with her mother's ashes to be secretly buried in the mountains outside the city.

The sun that day was very warm, but she felt a cool sensation that penetrated her heart. The entire world had turned gray.

"What are you thinking about?" Ye Zhen asked softly.

Yun Xuan was in a bit of a trance, as she shook her head, "Nothing much."

Ye Zhen did not expose him as he raised his head and took a deep breath, "Do you know why I like to wake up early to watch the sunrise?"

"Why?" Yun Xuan did not understand.

"Because I want to remind myself that the past is already in the past. What I want to face is a brand-new day."

"It's over …" Yun Xuan muttered to herself, "But, those things that happened in the past will always leave behind traces.

Ye Zhen held Yun Xuan's shoulders with both hands and turned her around. He looked at her and asked, "Why are you returning to the country at this time?"

Yun Xuan lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment, "The children have grown up, I will bring them back to see Grandma."

Ye Zhen did not speak, he stared at her for a while, then retracted his gaze, "Go down the mountain, let's go home to eat."

After the meal, Ye Zhen went to the company, and only Yun Xuan and her child were playing in the villa.

A servant came in to report, "Miss Xuan, Miss Yun Yan has come. She wants to see you."

Yun Xuan was not used to the servant's respectful attitude, "Nanny Liu, you don't have to be so courteous to me. I'm an outsider, not the owner of this place."

The Nanny Liu laughed, "Miss Xuan must be joking. Young Master had instructed me, when he's not around, you should be the mistress here."

"Huh?" Yun Xuan was shocked in her heart, "No, no, no, you misunderstood me …"
