"It really is you... I thought I was mistaken."
The middle-aged man couldn't help but reveal a surprised smile. He was stunned for quite a while, as if a burden had been lifted, and let out a long sigh.
"Hello, Owen Carter. Just call me Owen."
He introduced himself somewhat excitedly, carrying a large bag from the supermarket as he opened the door: "Please come in. The house is a bit messy, so please don't mind."
Ten minutes later, Huai Shi and Luo Su were already sitting in a slightly cluttered but comfortably decorated living room.
Warm steam rose from the teacup in their hands.
A dog was running around the living room in excitement, eventually nudging into Huai Shi's arms for a cuddle, and was held and petted by Huai Shi.
Looking around.
The place was filled with bookshelves stacked with various materials, and a large table covered with blueprints. It was all adorned with various peculiar creatures and buildings, flights of fancy, and some innocent and adorable children.
