Shu Shu looked at him in astonishment. She weakly asked, "How did you know …" What an idiot, getting married and getting divorced, she had already seen her ID card all the way.

He missed his birthday at the time of the marriage, but it was a good time for a divorce.

Ling Qiao did not reply, but instead said, "Today is my birthday. Since you remembered your birthday, then naturally, you will remember your birthday."

It was Ling Qiao's birthday?! It can't be, he already saw her ID card, but she didn't notice it. There was only a day difference between her and Ling Qiao's birthdays.

"Look at your expression, you don't remember. Sigh, what a disappointment."

"Sorry, I... I don't really remember these days... Happy Birthday! "

Ling Qiao wore a bitter face, "It's fine if you don't remember, but isn't saying 'Happy Birthday' a little too stingy?"

"I'm not generous in the first place."

"…"

As they chatted, the doorbell suddenly rang. Shu Shu's eyes flashed, "Ah, it must be my picture book."

Sure enough, the waiter brought the picture book over. ShuShu held onto it, looking apologetically at Ling Qiao, "Thank you for today. Then I'll be leaving now, 88."

"Hey …" Ling Qiao blocked the door as he reached out with his hand to support himself against the doorframe, "It's my birthday today. Are you leaving just like that?"

"Your birthday, your wife must be waiting for you at home, she must be ready for you."

Ling Qiao put away his unruly smile and said seriously, "My wife, you're the only one."

Shu Shu shrugged, "That's only what you said."

Ling Qiao suddenly pulled her in, before slamming the door shut. "I only love you, my wife, you alone forever."

"Then please... "Can you not love me?"

At that moment, Shu Shu never avoided it. She looked at Ling Qiao with a piercing gaze, at the same time accepting Ling Qiao's gaze. If this love became a burden, she would rather not have it.

Ling Qiao also shook his head with a deadpan expression, "Impossible, please listen carefully, listen carefully, this is impossible!"

Shu Shu's heart was filled with bitterness. "Since you love me so much, why did you get a room with her?" "If we don't get a room, we won't fall for the trap, and we don't need to go this far!"

"..." I was wrong, but... Will you accompany me for my birthday? "

Ling Qiao who was so proud, at this moment, had a clear look of begging in his eyes. Shu Shu's heart softened, but he was also moved.

"Alright!"

As soon as he agreed to stay, Ling Qiao was ecstatic. The haze that had accumulated for a long time was instantly swept away, and the smile on his face unconsciously flowed out. As long as he saw her, the happiness in his heart would germinate.

He had not felt so strongly about her before. He had only needed to open his mouth to say that I love you, and it was only when she was gone that he realized that he really couldn't lose her. Every time he said I love you, he thought, he would give it a new meaning.

Ling Qiao suggested, "Let's go to the seaside. Ling Bai Corporation has built a new batch of vacation log cabins there. I want to take you to experience them, so we can use them as a test."

"I don't want to go out. I don't want to be seen by others."

Ling Qiao could not help but laugh, "Cough cough, I do wish to be alone with you. It's up to you, but I can't promise that I won't do anything to you."

"…" Shu Shu placed her hands on her waist, angrily saying, "Ling Qiao, since when did you love to play dirty tricks?!"

"Because the moves of a righteous man are useless against you," Ling Qiao gave an evil smile, "That's why I only want to play dirty tricks."

"Halt!" ShuShu could not ignore his approaching footsteps. "If you don't stay three meters away from me, I'll leave immediately."

Ling Qiao raised her hands in the air, trying to calm her irritation. "Okay, okay, I'll stay away from you." "I can promise not to be seen or followed. Come with me. I want you to come with me."

ShuShu knew that as long as it was something Ling Qiao wanted to do, no one would be able to stop him. He had already made a tumble at Tang Sqing's place, he definitely would not be stupid enough to fall down again.

At the seaside log cabin, when Shu Shu stood on the seaside sky and sky of the Maldivian beach, she realized that the seaside that Ling Qiao spoke of turned out to be the Maldives. Even if she wanted to cry, she couldn't. It was just a nap on Ling Qiao's car. To think that she had already reached the Maldives after waking up. This wasn't a dream, was it?

She reached out and pinched her face. It hurt. It wasn't a dream.

"Ling Qiao!" Isn't it too late to be tricked?

"Yes, I'm here." Ling Qiao was wearing sunglasses and carrying a backpack on his shoulder. Standing under the afterglow of the setting sun, he appeared even more handsome and handsome. "I'm just three meters away from you."

Shu Shu was so angry that her teeth were itching. She really wanted to push him down to the ground and give him a good beating. "Ling Qiao, what are you bringing me here for!"

Ling Qiao shrugged, swinging up the backpack in his hands, "Since we haven't succeeded in taking the long vacation on Guam, then I'll take a small vacation in Maldives. Today is my birthday, and tomorrow is your birthday. We'll go back the day after tomorrow."

Shu Shu flew into a rage. "Then at least tell me in advance. At the very least, you have to get my permission."

"Would you agree?"

"Of course not."

"Then that's all. It would be better to cut it first and play later."

"But, but …" ShuShu was so angry that she couldn't even speak. She was already in Maldives, okay? She was already in a foreign land, okay!

Ling Qiao leisurely took out a peaked cap from his bag and put it on. "The evening sun is quite bright," he pointed to the sea, "Look behind you, it's so beautiful."

Shushu turned her body to face the sea. It had only been five minutes before she was surprised to find that the surface of the sea had suddenly turned golden. Not just the surface of the sea, but the horizon, and the beach were all golden.

At that moment, she almost forgot to be angry. The creator of nature was truly too great. It was able to create the world's most beautiful and dreamlike colors and scenes into the most tacit understanding.

Shu Qianyu was dumbfounded. She had originally been cursing out loud, okay? But now, she was stunned by the setting sun in front of her.

Ling Qiao silently walked forward, silently letting go of the backpack in his hands and placing it on the ground. He silently opened his arms and tightly hugged her.

Behind her, the shadows of the setting sun overlapped with the shadows of the two people who loved each other.

Shu Shu froze for a moment before reacting. She struggled to break free from Ling Qiao's grasp. "Let go, let go, let go of me …"

Ling Qiao leaned close to her ear and said with absolute certainty, "If you're not letting go, then don't let go!"

The golden rays of the setting sun shone down, warm and gentle. The tears on Shu Shu's face were crystal clear.

She thought she was barbaric enough, she thought she was free and easy enough, but what he did not know was that her barbarism and freedom made Ling Qiao feel even more reluctant to stop. This was the real her, and he, loved the real her.

Ling Qiao did not break away from her, but instead took a step forward and stood in front of Shu Shu. The setting sun shone on her face, yet her face was still lovable and childish. She was angry, she was crying.

He remembered the first time he'd seen her in the hospital, walking out of the elevator and bumping into her. She'd hit him.

He reached out and touched her cheek, wiping away her tears, "Baby, don't cry, will you fight alongside me? Really, I just want to see you every day, even if it's just your back, every day. I come to your apartment building to wait for you, just for the occasional walk downstairs, and I know that I don't have the right to call you wife right now, but darling, can you fight alongside me? "

Shu Shu blinked, she choked up, not knowing how to reply.

Ling Qiao said earnestly, "Of course I know that you won't be my secret lover, and I won't be as wronged as you are. I just hope that you won't refuse me at a distance of a thousand miles, since the private investigators have already found the crucial clues.

Shu lightly nodded her head, crying as she said, "But, I won't be the second Osha."

"Alright, I understand. I won't let you be that person that cannot be exposed to the light either."

"Then …" Shu Shu frowned, looking down at the distance between them.

Ling Qiao took a deep breath, smiled bitterly, and consciously let go of her. Then, he took two steps back, "A meter of distance, is that alright?"

She wanted to run up to him and give him a tight hug. She wanted to wipe her tears on his shirt as she used to do, and she cried, "I don't know. You shouldn't be so selfish doing what you're doing today. Have you thought about what I feel? I hid in my apartment and worked hard. I didn't want to see you because I was waiting for you. I wanted to wait for my old husband in peace, not Tang and Qing's husband. "

Ling Qiao smiled, "I understand …" I'm sorry, I was too selfish. "

As the sun was setting, Shu Shu looked at the sunset that was about to disappear behind Ling Qiao. She suddenly smiled and absentmindedly said, "This place is rather pretty."

Ling Qiao also smiled, turning to look behind him, "Yeah, we caught up, are you interested in sitting on the yacht and chasing after the sunset?" I've already arranged everything. "

Changing the subject was also a good idea, but this time he respected her a lot and had asked for her opinion before doing anything.

It was rare for the atmosphere to ease up, so Shu Shu hesitated. On one hand, she did not step out of Ling Qiao's trap, and on the other hand, she was deeply moved by Ling Qiao's deep love.

Ling Qiao seemed to see through her misgivings and said: "Just be like friends and go out to sea together to see the sunset. Don't think that you're forgiving me or promising me something, and just follow your heart. "If you don't go, then I'll take you back to the hotel. You're tired too."

Shu Shu looked at Ling Qiao's sincere yet disappointed expression and said, "Since you're already prepared, you can go."

Ling Qiao could not help but reveal a brilliant smile, "Alright, let's go."

After getting on the yacht, Ling Qiao headed towards the setting sun at full speed. Shu Shu sat on the deck, watching as the water on both sides of the boat continuously receded, the waves on the yacht turning golden under the setting sun.

To be honest, Ling Qiao's methods were indeed a bit lacking. He added some sleeping pills to Shu Shu's steak, allowing her to sleep from T City to Maldives. However, he did not regret this decision that he had thought about for half a month.

He had wanted to wait at her apartment building after the meeting, but he was pleasantly surprised to see her at the window of the Green Court Club. Maybe, he thought, the heavens were beginning to take pity on them.
