"Baby blue eyes."

"Baby blue eyes..."

Lin Jingchen murmured the name over and over, unable to suppress the smile tugging at his lips.

He understood romance even better than I did.

Looking at them here wasn't enough. Lin Jingchen packed all the gifts back into their original box and carried it upstairs to his room.

He looked through them again and again.

Only when a call came in did he look away.

He glanced at the contact name on his phone, and his gaze darkened.

He had intended to hang up, but then his sister sent him a message.

Seeing that it was from his sister, Lin Jingchen picked up his phone.

Sis: [Jingchen, that woman is back. She's at the old family residence. See if you want to come back. Dad is here too.]

The thought of that woman's smiling face from his childhood filled Lin Jingchen with disgust, but knowing she wanted to go to the old family residence made him even more furious.

Whether that woman lived or died was none of his concern. The moment she chose to leave, she had ceased to have anything to do with the Lin Family.

Coming back now was nothing short of laughable.

After steadying his emotions, Lin Jingchen typed a few words on his phone.

[Okay, I know. I'll head over now.]

Without waiting for Lin Xiaoqian to reply, he hurried to his feet, carefully placed the gift box in the safe, then changed his clothes and headed out.

Lin Xiaoqian had also been celebrating Valentine's Day with her husband when she unexpectedly received a call from that woman. Unable to reach her younger brother, Lin Jingchen, on his private number, the woman could only call her.

It had been so long since she had heard that woman's voice.
