Ye Wanwan followed Shen Yi, walking unhurried and steady.
Along the way, they mostly saw elderly grandpas and grandmas, either sitting at their doorsteps chatting to cool off or taking a walk.
Shen Yi suddenly said, "When we get old, let's come here too."
"Huh?" Ye Wanwan was taken aback, unable to keep up with Shen Yi's train of thought. How had they gotten to the topic of their old age so suddenly?
"After Zhouzhou grows up, we can retire here. It doesn't have to be exactly here, we could find a quiet courtyard in Beijing, just the two of us."
"We would be together every day, eat together, chat together, walk together, and then grow old together slowly."
Shen Yi's tone was very calm, betraying no particular emotion, yet Ye Wanwan felt an indescribable sentiment rising within her.
In their past life, they hadn't managed to grow old together.
At this thought, Ye Wanwan couldn't help the sourness in her nose and felt a surge of tears coming on.
