Chapter 125 Recognition
Amidst the laughter and joy of the amusement park, Tianyu and Jiang Songchu spent a delightful day.
As the sun set, the two sat in a Ferris wheel cabin, and as the Ferris wheel slowly rose, the entire amusement park scenery came into view.
Jiang Songchu turned her head to look at Tianyu. Although he was still wearing his signature sunglasses and mask, she could feel that he was radiating a relaxed aura, which was a side of him she rarely saw.
A sense of familiarity welled up in her heart again, making her suddenly curious about his face.
"Tianyu, today is truly a perfect day," Jiang Songchu said, changing the subject as he spoke.
Tianyu smiled and replied, "Yes, today is special."
"Then why do you always wear sunglasses and a mask?"
Upon hearing Jiang Songchu's words, Tianyu was slightly taken aback and fell silent instantly, without answering Jiang Songchu's question.
Jiang Songchu didn't press the matter further, but a thought suddenly occurred to her.
She took her phone out of her pocket and asked softly, "Tianyu, do you know what day it is today?"
Tianyu was taken aback. His gaze fell on Jiang Songchu's phone screen, where the calendar app was displayed, with the dates deliberately enlarged.
His birthday is today.
"So you know."
Tianyu was somewhat surprised, as he had never told Jiang Songchu his birthday.
Jiang Songchu smiled, thinking of the Tianyu profile she had inexplicably opened yesterday.
I happened to see your birthday.
Tian Yu smiled, seemingly with some emotion.
At this moment, the Ferris wheel returned to its starting point.
After leaving the amusement park, the two went to a restaurant.
Jiang Songchu insisted on personally making a bowl of longevity noodles for Tianyu as a birthday gift.
She walked into the kitchen, skillfully rolled up her sleeves, and began kneading, rolling, and cutting the dough, each movement revealing her focus.
Tianyu stood aside, quietly watching her, seemingly lost in thought.
Soon after, a steaming bowl of longevity noodles appeared in front of Tianyu.
The noodles are thin and long, the soup is clear, and it is decorated with green leaves. A golden-fried egg is placed on top, emitting an enticing aroma.
Tianyu picked up the noodles and took a small bite.
Instantly, his gaze softened and deepened.
The taste of this bowl of noodles was exactly the same as the one he remembered being made by.
The person who left a deep mark on his life, the person he can never forget...
Tianyu looked at Jiang Songchu, his heart filled with mixed emotions, unable to suppress the pounding in his heart.
Jiang Songchu sat opposite Tianyu, smiling as she watched him eat noodles, completely unaware of the turmoil he was experiencing.
"Happy birthday."
"Thank you, the noodles taste great."
Tianyu looked deeply at Jiang Songchu. On this special day, he received the most precious gift.
After leaving the restaurant, the city was gently enveloped in the night, and neon lights flickered in the darkness. Tianyu gentlemanly escorted Jiang Songchu back to the hotel where Chen Yun and Aman were staying.
Along the way, the two talked about everything under the sun, from the latest popular movies to exploring distant galaxies. It seemed like they had endless things to say, and they were both attracted by each other's knowledge and humor.
Upon arriving at the hotel, the soft glow of the streetlights bathed them, adding a touch of warmth to the night, as if even the air itself was filled with a faint sweetness.
The two stood side by side on the steps in front of the hotel, enjoying this rare moment of peace and harmony.
A gentle night breeze, carrying a hint of coolness, only served to accentuate the atmosphere between the two.
"I'm really happy today, thank you, Tianyu." Jiang Songchu's voice floated gently in the night breeze, her eyes filled with a subtle tenderness.
Tianyu smiled slightly, his eyes particularly deep in the night.
"It's my honor to spend my birthday with you. Everything today is made even more wonderful because of you."
His tone was full of satisfaction.
Her gaze lingered on Tianyu's face for a moment, then she waved goodbye to him. Just as the two turned around, Jiang Songchu suddenly stopped and looked back.
Just as Tianyu's figure was about to blend into the night and disappear from her sight, Jiang Songchu suddenly felt a strong surge of emotion, as if something had been quietly awakened.
Jiang Songchu's thoughts drifted back to that ancient era, back to the moment when Gu Tianrong first met her fiancé, and that long-buried memory quietly awakened.
After the emperor issued an edict to appoint her as the crown princess, she would be summoned to the palace every year to pay her respects to the emperor and empress.
Everything went smoothly until one year when she was leaving the palace after a visit, a palace servant led her through a shortcut into a garden.
There she saw a young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and a woman whose face was obscured by the young man.
Because the boy blocked her view, Jiang Songchu couldn't see the woman's face, but judging from her melodious voice and slender figure, she knew she was quite beautiful. Yet, the woman called out, "Crown Prince Brother..."
At that moment, a complex emotion welled up in Jiang Songchu's heart. She knew that the young man was her fiancé, the future emperor, and Crown Prince Qin Tianyi.
She remembers her heart racing and her cheeks flushing. It was the first time she had seen him so closely, the man she was destined to spend her life with.
Jiang Songchu's thoughts returned to this moment. She looked at Tianyu's back and found it overlapped with that of the Crown Prince.
She was slightly lost in thought. After a moment's hesitation, she involuntarily whispered his name: "Qin Tianyi..."
Her voice carried a hint of confusion and uncertain surprise.
This name, like a key, unlocked the long-sealed door in her heart.
The man in front of him was stunned when he heard Jiang Songchu's call. His body stiffened abruptly, as if he had been struck by lightning.
He immediately turned around, his gaze sharp and fixed on Jiang Songchu.
Scenes from the past replayed in his mind like a movie: the time he spent with Jiang Songchu, the emotions he had never spoken or had spoken, and the scenes that tormented him day and night—all of these now transformed into the figure before him.
Although he was somewhat disappointed, because in the past Chu Chu would not call him by his full name, but rather Tian Yi...
He parted his thin lips slightly and said, "Chu Chu, it's been a long time."
The man's voice was deep yet magnetic, each word seemingly emanating from the depths of his heart, filled with endless longing and emotion.
Jiang Songchu's heart raced as she looked at Tianyu, that familiar yet unfamiliar name echoing in her mind.
She didn't know if it was a coincidence or fate, but she knew that at this moment, she felt something she had never felt before.
"Tianyu... no, Qin Tianyi, what's going on?"
