Vivian’s old face looked so surreal.

The Vivian in Yu Huang’s memory was still so young and beautiful.

Yu Huang suppressed the sadness in her heart and forced a smile at Vivian. Then, she pretended to be calm as she said, “Your grandson is already so old, yet my child has just started to have a heartbeat in my stomach.”

“From now on, whenever we go on the streets, those who know about us will think that we have a good relationship. Those who don’t know will think that I’m a grandma bringing my daughter and grandson out shopping.”

Vivian was amused by Yu Huang’s words and laughed heartily. “Hey, if you call me Mom, I’ll definitely prepare a gift for you.”

Yu Huang scolded Vivian jokingly, “You’re really thick-skinned.”

Vivian stared at Yu Huang’s young and beautiful appearance and said enviously, “When I look at you, I keep feeling that I’m still very young. My health has been getting worse recently. After I die, bury me with Jiang Shangfeng. In the future, I’ll have to trouble you to take care of my disappointing children.”

“If they do something wrong, slap them hard. They respect you and Mr. Sheng.”

Yu Huang nodded repeatedly. “Alright, I’m a professional at hitting people.”

Vivian said again, “Move the camera so I can see your stomach.”

“My pregnancy isn’t showing yet.” Yu Huang took her phone away and aimed it at her stomach. When Vivian saw Yu Huang’s flat stomach, she smiled and said, “50 years ago, I prepared a newborn gift for your child. Now that 50 years have passed, it can finally be put to use this year.”

Yu Huang was amused by Vivian’s words. “You can only blame Sheng Xiao.”

“Be careful. If Sheng Xiao hears this, he will settle scores with you.”

The two of them chatted for a long time. When the food was ready, Sheng Xiao called Yu Huang downstairs to eat. Only then did Yu Huang hang up the video call with Vivian.

She followed Sheng Xiao downstairs. When she saw Yu Donghai, she called out, “Father, why are you here?”

Yu Donghai raised the ultrasound report in his hand and said with a smile, “I can’t wait to see the first photo of my grandson.”

He caressed the ultrasound scan lovingly and said with red eyes, “This child looks smart and outgoing, like you.”

Sheng Xiao chuckled while Yu Huang was speechless.

“Let’s eat first.”

“Okay.”

After walking to the dining room and sitting down, Yu Huang told Yu Donghai about some of the things that had happened during today’s physical examination. Thinking of the relationship between her and Deng Weidong, she asked Yu Donghai, “Father, after I was disfigured, when we first reunited, we met a gaming addict on a bus. At that time, I had already foreseen that that child might die in the sea of flames, so I reminded him. Because of this, he avoided the disaster, and now, he has become the director of the People’s Hospital. Do you still remember this?”

Yu Donghai thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, “It was so long ago, I really don’t remember.”

“Mr. Deng saw that your legs were crippled, so he gave you his seat.”

Yu Donghai still didn’t have any impression of it when he heard that he gave up his seat.’ He said, “I’m a disabled person. Every time I sit on a bus, someone gives up their seat for me. My memory isn’t that good, so I really don’t remember.”

When Yu Huang heard this, she didn’t ask further.

“Try this lotus root tip.” Yu Donghai placed the crispy and sour lotus root tip into Yu Huang’s bowl. He said, “This is an appetizer. Eat some.”

Yu Huang nodded and took a bite of the lotus root tip. Then, she put down her bowl and chopsticks and said, “I’m full.”

Sheng Xiao was a little worried when he saw how little she ate. “Aren’t you going to eat more? You didn’t eat much today.”

Yu Huang shook her head. “I can’t eat any more food.”

Yu Donghai then said, “It’s always like this during the early stages of pregnancy. You feel extremely hungry, but you just can’t eat anything. In another two days, the nausea will be even more intense. At that time, you won’t be able to eat anything at all.”

Sheng Xiao’s heart ached for Yu Huang when he thought of that scene. “If you really can’t eat anymore, don’t eat. Tell me what you want to eat later. I’ll make it for you.”

“Okay.”

Yu Donghai and Sheng Xiao continued eating. Yu Huang took the ultrasound scan and went to the main living room to rest for a while. After Sheng Xiao and the others finished eating, Yu Huang summoned them to the courtyard outside.

The midsummer sky was clear and filled with stars. As Yu Huang looked at the constellations that filled the sky, she suddenly said, “After you led the Yin clansmen to sacrifice themselves, the green soul balls that filled the sky slowly rose. They were even more beautiful than the constellations in front of me. But every time I recall that scene, I feel suffocated and anguished.”

Seeing Yu Huang bring up the past from fifty years ago, Sheng Xiao and Yu Donghai turned their heads to look at her. Yu Donghai said, “I’m still alive now. Don’t think about those painful memories anymore.”

Sheng Xiao echoed, “That’s right. You’re pregnant now. Try to relax.”

Yu Huang smiled and took out the ultrasound report again.

Staring at the blurry shadow on the ultrasound report, Yu Huang muttered to herself, “I became a Divine Master, will spend the rest of my life with Brother Xiao, revived my father, and will give birth to a child soon. I even successfully saved the survivors of the Earth’s apocalypse era. I also met an old acquaintance from my childhood when I went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup… All of this is unbelievably perfect. It’s simply my ideal world.”

“But Brother Xiao, Father, there has never been a paradise in this world? There is no perfect world.”

Yu Donghai and Sheng Xiao’s expressions changed slightly when they heard this.

Sheng Xiao held Yu Huang’s hand and said worriedly, “Why are you saying this?”

Yu Huang took her hand away from Sheng Xiao’s palm and placed it on her abdomen as she said, “At this moment, I can clearly feel the existence of the little life in my stomach that is related to me by blood. I can also feel my father’s love and care for me, and I can even feel Brother Xiao’s love for me and the compassion of my friends. But…”

Yu Huang closed her eyes and tears fell as she said, “This isn’t reality.”

Sheng Xiao’s expression changed drastically when he heard that. Just as he was about to say something, Yu Huang suddenly opened her eyes and stared straight into his eyes. She said calmly, “Stop lying to me.”

Sheng Xiao immediately defended himself. “Your memories are in a mess now. You don’t even know what’s real and what’s fake. Do you think your current life is fake?”

Yu Huang immediately interrupted Sheng Xiao. “It’s not that I think so, but I’ve already seen through your tricks.”

Yu Huang smiled sadly as she shook her head and said, “This illusion is indeed very realistic. It’s so realistic that even I couldn’t tell if it was real or fake. However, it’s still not foolproof.”

Sheng Xiao asked instinctively, “What about it isn’t foolproof?”

Yu Huang said, “Deng Weidong, the dean Mr. Deng.”
