It was getting late, so I simply stayed at a Japanese-style hot spring hotel near Amanohashidate.

Enzo has never been a person who treats himself badly, and the hotel he stays in is also a high-end luxury place where each resident is equipped with an independent hot spring.

"Yo, the wedding is in time?"

After settling down, Enzo sat on the wooden corridor outside the house, and decided to make a phone call to care about the lifelong affairs of his old friend.

It's just that the voice from the other end of the phone was a bit noisy, and it didn't sound like what should be happening on a wedding night.

I heard Sawada Iemitsu sighed helplessly, "I was at the airport...the wedding was caught up at the last moment, but I have to go back to Italy now. There are many things involved behind the family that was resolved today. The dispute over the interests of the Pengo Lie family is very urgent, and I have to go back to the Italian headquarters to deal with it."

"Rush to get married in an oil worker's outfit, leave your new wife behind and go back to work as soon as the ceremony is over... What is the reason this time? There is an emergency at the oil exploration site and you need to rush back immediately?"

Enzo felt that this was the most likely answer given by the other party's brain thinking, and all problems were solved by pulling out oil... It felt like that guy cosplaying oil workers was addicted to cosplaying.

Iemitsu Sawada: "..."

I was really guessed right.

Seeing the silence on the other side of the phone for a while, En Zuo pouted, "...your wife must really love you."

"I always knew that I was very sorry for Nana, and it is very possible...the person I am most sorry for in my future life will be her. But I still really don't want her to get involved in the world of the mafia, not because I am worried about protecting her. Good for her, but I really don’t want her to see those dark things, and I don’t want her to see the dark side of me.” After expressing my deepest thoughts, even someone from the other world like Sawada Iemitsu The man of the hour can't help but feel panic and bewilderment about the future.

Enzo's tone was also serious, he hooked the corners of his lips, and pierced everything sharply, "You are like a demon who fell in love with an angel, wearing the cloak of a believer and falling in love with the angel, wanting to be with the angel forever You are together, but you can’t bear to break the angel’s wings and let her fall into hell with you, so I would rather wear a coat all the time and maintain the status quo.”

After a brief silence, "My thoughts and actions are ridiculous and selfish, right?"

"I have no way to comment." Enzuo Yuan's eyes drooped slightly, and he smiled lightly: "Maybe this is your way of protecting your feelings. Who will know what will happen in the future?"

He has always felt that he is a person who is well versed in the world, and this is also his weapon to win in open and secret battles.

It's only now that he really admits and faces that reality—he actually doesn't understand true feelings at all.In other words, it is now the first time I feel that I have a family, and then I slowly start to learn to feel and understand what feelings are.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?Once a person has a weakness, will it increase the weakness, or will it become stronger?

All he knew was that it felt good now, that's all.

……

Back in the house, on the tatami in the living room, Dino, who was obviously sleepy, was hugged by Laura in his arms. After seeing him enter the room, he immediately pulled himself up and sat up straight.

Children need much more sleep time than adults, and generally go to bed very early.And now it was almost twelve o'clock in the morning, and Dino was obviously about to lose his hold.

"Why don't you go to bed?" Enzo asked after looking at the time displayed on the watch hanging on the wall.

He doesn't have any strict requirements on the child's work and rest time, but Laura has always set strict rules on Dino's bedtime. What happened today?

Seeing her son's sleepy little head bouncing forward, Laura hugged her son into her arms again with some distress, "He has something to say, and he must tell you at twelve o'clock in the morning."

"Huh?" This made Enzo a little confused, so he sat down on the tatami: "What is it, it's so mysterious, we must wait until then..."

That's what he said, but he still stayed with him until that point.

Enzo and Laura are adults after all, and because of their work, it is common for them to stay up late.Dino couldn't do it at all, he tried his best, and his little head couldn't stop moving forward.

And every time he clicked forward, Enzo also stretched out his right index finger with great interest to poke Dino's little nose to make Dino's little head tilt back.Such a cycle goes on and on, never tired of it.

Looking at the behavior of the two men, one big and one young, beside her, Laura was a little dumbfounded.It's like two kids playing together, the older one bullying the younger one.

Finally, when the first moment of April 4 came, Dino immediately shook his little head to cheer up.

"Father……"

Just when he opened his mouth, Dino immediately changed his words after receiving Enzo's dissatisfaction in his eyes, and said what he wanted to say until this moment.

"Dad, happy birthday!"

The voice was not loud, with the softness of a sleepy child, but it hit Enzo's heart with a particularly loud voice.

When his son said this sentence, he only felt that his brain went blank for a moment.

Today... is his birthday?He couldn't even remember it himself, but if he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be true.

Things like birthdays have long since disappeared from his life.I only remember that when I was very young, the family held several banquets in this name.It's just that at this kind of banquet, everyone present with the real purpose knows well that the birthday wishes to him, whether it is words or gifts, are false.After growing up, this kind of nominal banquet was not held again, and he had long forgotten his birthday.

This is his No.20 fifth birthday, and it is also the first sincere birthday greeting he has received in his 25 years of life.

At this time, he should be so moved that tears filled his eyes, but...he had already forgotten how to cry, and the rainy day had exhausted all his tears.

For a moment, I was at a loss and didn't know how to express my feelings most authentically, like a child who received a surprise gift but didn't know how to respond.

Seeing this, Laura smiled helplessly, and quietly leaned into Enzo's ear, whispering softly, "If you don't know what to say, just give him a kiss."

If you are at a loss for words, then put everything you want to say into a kiss, it can truly convey your mood without words.

When he felt a wet feeling on his forehead and realized that he had been kissed, and the person who kissed him was his father, Dino blushed instantly.

Shy and excited, this is the first time his father kissed him when he grew up.

"Father..." Ruru softly called, Dino said with a blushing face, "Dad, you have to be like Antrio!"

"Antrio? Why?" Enzo felt that his thoughts were a little out of touch with children.

Dino explained seriously: "Because, Dad, you told me before that the tortoise represents longevity, so Dad, you have to be like a tortoise!"

Enzo's face turned dark immediately, while Laura laughed directly... Her son is really too cute.

While poking the tender flesh on Dino's body with his finger, Enzo put on a dissatisfied look and said, "You are like a tortoise. If I become a tortoise...you son of a tortoise."

Dino, who was so tickled that he was about to cry, rolled on the tatami mat laughing.

Later, when he grew up, when the day of April 4 came year after year, he couldn't help but sigh, blessing this kind of thing is just a wish after all.

His father, after all, still failed to live as long as the tortoise as he wished.

……

After the quarrel, Dino couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep.

After taking her son back to the bedroom and covering him with the quilt, Laura saw Enzo looking at her while sipping Japanese sake on a plate.

"It's rare to come to this kind of accommodation. Don't you want to experience the Japanese hot spring? Tomorrow night, I will fly back to Sicily."

Laura was moved when she heard what the other party said, and the hot spring was outside the house.

Seeing what Laura was hesitating about, Enzo smiled ambiguously: "Our two sons are old, I haven't seen anything on you, why are you shy. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

"I'm afraid your brain will be paralyzed by alcohol." Laura pointed to the sake on the tatami table with her eyes.

"Heh, just this little sake doesn't hurt me at all."

……

When Laura stepped into the hot spring pool wrapped in a bath towel, Enzo had already soaked in it, leaning against the pool wall and closing his eyes to rest.

In the early hours of the morning, it was extraordinarily quiet, and the moonlight shone on the warm water surface, shining brilliantly.

"That guy Sawada Iemitsu finally caught up with his wedding." Enzo suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Laura who was running the hot spring facing him.

Laura nodded: "That's good."

"It's really full of twists and turns. Compared with our wedding seven years ago, it's even worse..." I deliberately elongated my tone, observing Laura's expression without any trace.

After a few seconds of silence, after Laura said nothing, Enzo smiled lightly and sighed: "As expected..."

"As expected? As expected what?" Laura couldn't understand what Enzo was saying.

Enzo's expression was elusive, but he continued his words in a calm tone: "Laura, we didn't hold a wedding at all..."

She was dazed for a moment, and in the next moment, Laura, who quickly realized what happened, raised her head in surprise, and looked at the other party with wide-eyed eyes.

"Laura, you've lost your memory, haven't you? Since you woke up in the hospital last year."
