Ye Xingbei reached out to shake his hand and smiled, shaking her head, "You’re welcome, it was really just a small effort."

"Oh my God, I’m so happy!" Yao Yaya suddenly jumped into Yao Guanlin’s arms, hugging his neck, her body trembling, "Brother, pinch me, am I dreaming? I must be dreaming, right? Otherwise, how could you return to the country? Is there still hope for Dad? I must be dreaming!"

Yao Guanlin really pinched her.

Yao Yaya cried out, "Ow," and slapped him, "Ouch! Why did you really pinch?"

"Didn’t you ask me to pinch you?" Yao Guanlin pinched her face again, "You little girl, you think you’ve grown some skills, don’t you? Such a big issue, you handled it on your own. If Mom and I hadn’t felt something was wrong and looked into it, were you going to keep it from us?"

"I wanted to tell you, but didn’t you and Mom get hurt in a car accident? I was afraid you’d worry about me, so I didn’t say anything," Yao Yaya said, "Where’s Mom? Did she return to the country too?"

"Yes, she did," Yao Guanlin said, "But Mom gets airsick, and she vomited terribly and passed out in the car. I took her to Grandpa’s house."

"Is Mom okay?" Yao Yaya asked worriedly.

"She’s fine," Yao Guanlin said, "The doctor said after a night’s sleep and some food, she’ll be recovered by tomorrow."

"Oh," Yao Yaya looked at Sang Xiaxia, "Xiaxia, you stay here with Dad, I’ll go check on Mom."

"Yes, go ahead," Sang Xiaxia said, "Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Uncle."

Ye Xingbei said, "Then let’s go together, I have things to do and should be heading back."

After Ye Xingbei and the Yao siblings parted ways at the hospital entrance, she went to her dessert shop.

The shop’s signage was already completed, with the beautiful four characters "Carved Time" shining brightly in the sunlight.

Ye Xingbei paused at the entrance, staring at those four characters for a long time.

Carved Time.

When naming the dessert shop, she and Gu Junzhu put as much thought into it as if naming a child.

She and Gu Junzhu came up with many names, finally deciding on this one: Carved Time.

Ye Xingbei didn’t know why, but every time she saw those four characters, a tender sense of nostalgia would well up inside her.

Many of the romantic and beautiful memories between her and Gu Junzhu would surface from the depths of her mind.

Since being with Gu Junzhu, every moment has been so wonderful.

So wonderful that she wanted to engrave all the memories related to her and Gu Junzhu in her soul permanently.

She looked at those four big characters and smiled sweetly, stepping into the dessert shop.

Starting tomorrow, her dessert shop would begin its trial operation, and desserts with a slightly longer shelf life had already been baked and placed on the shelves.

The shop was filled with a rich and sweet aroma.

"Boss." The store manager saw her walk in, and Lin Wanyang quickly walked over to her.

"Wanyang," Ye Xingbei looked at Lin Wanyang with a smile, "Is everything going smoothly?"

Lin Wanyang was a recent college graduate whom Ye Xingbei personally hired, with a degree in business marketing and management.

During recruitment, Ye Xingbei saw the name on her resume and instantly liked it.

Wanyang.

Following the rippling flow, standing as if in the center of the water.

A line from "Jianjia" in the Book of Songs.

After the interview, she was quite fond of this calm and gentle girl, so she hired her as the dessert shop manager.
