Their first stop was the old town.

Narrow, winding cobblestone streets, brightly colored old buildings, and the sweet aroma of coffee and cinnamon rolls in the air.

Eileen's explanations were professional and humorous, interspersed with historical anecdotes and local tidbits.

Su Qingyao was quickly drawn in and, pulling Zhang Miaoke and Shen Zhixian along, curiously peered into the exquisite shop windows and ancient doorways as they walked through the alley.

Jiang Shubai stayed close by, afraid that he might lose his place next to Shen Zhixian if he wasn't careful.

Wen Yu followed Su Qingyao at a leisurely pace, always keeping a step or two behind her, his gaze fixed on her.

As Su Qingyao passed by a candy store, she was attracted by the colorful and cute candies and couldn't help but take a second look.

From not far away came Zhang Miaoke's call, "Yaoyao! Come and see this building, the roof is so special!"

She responded and jogged after him.

Su Qingyao listened to the explanation with great interest. When she turned around to share it with Wen Yu, a candy bag with a retro pattern appeared in front of her.

Wen Yu held the paper bag, his eyes slightly curved, and his eyebrows raised slightly.

"Want to try some?"

A subtle sweetness welled up in Su Qingyao's heart.

How come I noticed even when she glanced at me a little longer?

I took the bag and opened it; inside were a dazzling array of candies, coated with glistening icing and emitting an enticing fruity aroma.

Su Qingyao picked up a piece and put it in her mouth. The sweet and sour taste melted on her tongue, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes and smile with satisfaction.

"Is it tasty?"

Wen Yu asked in a low voice, his gaze falling on her arched eyebrows.

Su Qingyao nodded vigorously, her voice muffled but joyful, "Delicious~ Thank you, Wenyu!"

"You're not calling me 'brother' anymore?" he teased her on purpose.

Su Qingyao raised her chin, looking at me with a knowing expression, "Hmm... since you did well, I'll reluctantly call you that."

"Thank you, brother~"

Wen Yu's smile remained unchanged. He took the opportunity to move his face closer and lower his voice, "Give one to your brother too."

Su Qingyao lowered her head and picked through the paper bag, her gaze landing on a black and white candy.

This one resembles Wenyu.

It may look pure white and clean on the surface, but who knows how many bad intentions it might be hiding inside.

She took out the candy and handed it over.

Wen Yu didn't take it with his hands, but instead used her hand to eat it directly with his mouth.

The warm tip of his tongue brushed lightly against her fingertips.

Su Qingyao recoiled as if burned, quickly glancing around furtively. She breathed a sigh of relief when she realized her companions were focused on Eileen's explanation of the next attraction and no one was paying attention to her little action.

Her cheeks flushed, and she accused in a low voice, "How could you eat like that!"

Wen Yu looked innocent, but his eyes held a mischievous glint. "Baby, you're reaching out your hand because you want to feed me, aren't you?"

"Then you can't...lick it..."

Her voice grew softer and softer, and the last few words were almost inaudible.

"Okay, I understand," Wen Yu nodded, his smile deepening. "Brother won't lick anymore."

Seeing that he had steered the conversation off-topic again in just a few words, Su Qingyao's cheeks flushed even hotter. She grabbed the bag of candy and turned to run towards Zhang Miaoke and the others.

Watching her hurried figure, Wen Yu slowly followed, the corners of his lips curving into a deeper smile.

Wen Zhaoyue walked over slowly at this moment, her gaze lingering on Wen Yu's face for a moment.

"Tsk, beast."

Wen Yu glanced at her coolly, her tone indifferent, "Likewise."

Wen Zhaoyue raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying, her bright and generous face slightly furrowed, showing a hint of confusion and bewilderment.

"Isn't it said that once a man has tasted the forbidden fruit, there's no stopping him? Why is my Ah Yan starting to avoid me?"

Wen Yu didn't reply immediately, but instead turned his gaze to Wen Yan, who was not far away.

The boy was following closely behind the group, seemingly listening attentively to the guide's explanation, while curiously looking around.

Ke Wenyu could see it clearly; his peripheral vision was constantly, almost imperceptibly, fixed on Wen Zhaoyue.

Wen Yu was very familiar with what was hidden in those eyes.

Obsession, longing, and a hint of playing hard to get.

It was exactly the same as some of the moments he looked at his baby.

It seems Wen Zhaoyue was right last time; she really did manage to seduce him.

However, this guy is keeping Wen Zhaoyue hanging on, afraid that if he gets her too quickly, she won't appreciate it.

Wen Yu lazily tugged at the corner of his mouth and tossed out a cold remark, "Why don't you try avoiding him too?"

After saying that, he walked towards Su Qingyao.

He had no interest in watching the two of them chasing and pulling at each other in this amusing scene.

He finally managed to bring his baby out to play, and he didn't want to waste his time on other people.

-

During the rest of the trip, Wenyu was practically a walking Doraemon.

If Su Qingyao's gaze lingered on any trinkets, pastries, or even a particular shop window for even a moment longer, that item would soon appear before her.

At first, Qin Yue carried the load, but as the load increased, Wen Yu started carrying some of it himself.

Later on, Jiang Shubai was covered in colorful shopping bags.

Zhang Miaoke watched with shining eyes and exclaimed, "Wow, so this is how Young Master Wen, who is usually indifferent to women, is when he's in love! No wonder she's called Yaoyao, she's got the art of taming her husband!"

Su Qingyao's cheeks flushed slightly. She didn't say anything, but her eyes and brows couldn't hide her sweet smile.

Zhang Miaoke suddenly rolled her eyes, secretly leaned close to Su Qingyao's ear, and pointed to the window of a handmade jewelry store not far away.

"My darling, come on, take a few more looks at that amber necklace!"

Su Qingyao was puzzled, so she followed her gaze and looked over curiously.

Not long after, Wen Yu came out of the shop with a delicate little paper bag in his hand, which he handed to Su Qingyao.

Zhang Miaoke was so excited she almost jumped up, hugging Su Qingyao's arm tightly and shouting excitedly.

"Aaaaaaah! Yaoyao, you're my goddess! My best friend's success has brought me good fortune too!"

Just as Zhang Miaoke was pulling Su Qingyao around, looking at things left and right, and buying several items, Jiang Shubai, who was standing to the side, finally broke down.

"Zhang Miaoke! I'm begging you! Please stop letting Qingyao look at me like that! My hands are about to break! I came here for tourism, not to be a laborer!"

He was covered in bags, looking like a walking gift rack.

This comical and disheveled appearance made Zhang Miaoke burst into laughter without any restraint. Su Qingyao was so amused that she bent over laughing, and Shen Zhixian also laughed out loud.

Wen Yu glanced at Jiang Shubai, who was almost submerged, and then looked at Qin Yue.

Qin Yue nodded in understanding, and soon several well-trained people appeared and took all the shopping bags from the group.

Jiang Shubai felt a sudden lightness in his body and instantly regained his full strength, letting out a long sigh of relief.

He sidled up to Shen Zhixian with great enthusiasm, being extremely attentive.

"Zhizhi, is there anything you want to buy? I'll buy it for you~"

Shen Zhixian shook her head slightly, "Thank you, but there's no need to spend money. I can manage on my own."

Seeing this, Zhang Miao mischievously pulled Su Qingyao aside and deliberately squeezed between the two of them, affectionately taking Shen Zhixian's other arm.

"Zhizhi, let me tell you, there seems to be a really cool astronomy-themed shop up ahead..."

"Zhang Miaoke!" Jiang Shubai jumped up and down in anger. "I'm going to fight you to the death today!"

Su Qingyao was amused by the two's childish bickering and symbolically tried to mediate while laughing.

"Stop! Stop fighting! Stop it, please stop! Stop fighting..."

She smiled without a trace of gloom, her eyes curving into crescents, her cheeks flushed with laughter.

I was bathed in the Stockholm afternoon sun, looking incredibly radiant.

Wen Yu stood not far away, quietly watching this scene.

He raised his phone, capturing that radiant smile forever, and carefully preserving it.
