Just as Xi Ao was about to fall asleep, he was woken up by the sweet ringing of the bell. But at this moment, he felt that the voice spreading in his ears was particularly unpleasant to listen to, making him and the others unable to restrain his emotions to become impetuous. Opening one of his eyes, he picked up the phone and saw that it was Lu Juyan calling, he pressed the answer button, and the words that came out made him even more confused.
"Yes sir!"
When Xi Ao's hazy eyes could see the ceiling, his thoughts became clearer. He agreed to see Lu Juyan, but realised that the other party had already hung up. Ye Zichen chucked his phone to the side, then sat up straight before taking out his laptop to book a plane ticket.
When Xi Ao flipped to the earliest flight, exactly half an hour later, he directly pressed down on the fixed number of two tickets. He sent a message to to inform him and then stood up from the bed.
He rubbed the two acupuncture points on his nose helplessly. A trace of unconcealable hostility appeared on his delicate and handsome face. It was only when he took the golden silk eyes from the table that the hostility was reduced. He stood up, poured himself a cup of water, and drank it all in one gulp. Only then did he feel much clearer.
Ten minutes later, the two of them were out of the room and heading towards the airport. Coincidentally, they had successfully boarded the plane just before the plane took off. The flight attendant's warm voice came from the radio, "Dear passengers, please turn your phones to silence or vibrate. The plane is about to depart."
Lu Juyan lowered his gaze, looked at the time on the screen, and calculated secretly. When he raised his head, he leaned his body against the slightly comfortable back and closed his eyes, trying to rest.
Xi Ao who was seated at the side turned his head to the side of the window, he looked extremely straight, with his eyes closed tightly.
At four in the morning, the plane landed. The flight attendant's voice filled the slightly empty cabin, waking Xi Ao up from his deep slumber. Red veins appeared in his eyes as he looked ahead in confusion. He deliberately put his hand in front of his body, looking as if he was in a dream and was in a panic.
After half a second, Xi Ao finally realised where he was. The blood veins in his eyes were gradually fading, and his sleepy emotions were also surging nonstop. He quickly followed Lu Juyan outside, and just as they left the airport, he faintly spoke: "You go back first."
The mandatory expulsion order made Xi Ao want to retort, but his face still carried a cold expression, and he very naturally nodded his head. Driving his car, heading home.
Lu Juyan then found a car inside the airport and drove it home. The color of the clouds in the sky gradually turned cool, showing a blue-gray color. His eyes stared at the time on the screen, and a faint sense of expectation appeared in his heart.
In the bedroom, the blanket that was covering Du Yanqing was lifted to her stomach. The slightly cold feeling of early morning made her subconsciously push the blanket down with her feet. He woke up in a daze for a while, then closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
"Time is something that can catch people off guard. Sometimes there is wind and sometimes there are wind and rain, but you can't fight against time and remember the past …"
Just as she was falling into depression, her phone rang, interrupting the scene from the Conference of the Zhou Dynasty. Narrowing her eyes, the light from outside the window shone through the curtains, causing her to feel somewhat dazzled.
She used her senses to feel the existence of her cell phone and narrowed a small slit in her right eye. When he noticed that it was Lu Juyan's phone number, his heart trembled slightly, and his drowsy feeling immediately disappeared like smoke. He immediately sat up on the bed and pressed the answer button.
Without waiting for Du Yanqing to speak, Lu Juyan's low and hoarse voice came out from his phone: "Open the door."
Lu Juyan's words caused Du Yanqing to be stunned for a moment. He looked at the door, not knowing the truth, and started to squander his lost thoughts unrestrainedly, but his body obediently listened to Lu Juyan's words and continued to move. After opening the bedroom door, the first thing he saw after a round of inspection was the empty living room.
She unconsciously glanced at the door and walked forward step by step, but her heartbeat inexplicably quickened. He opened the door, and before she could react, he was already carried by Lu Juyan, who was rushing back with dust all over his body. The familiar embrace caused happiness to surface in her heart, the unstable thoughts in her mind suddenly stopped, her body honestly extended her hand and hugged Lu Juyan.
At this moment, neither of them spoke. They clearly had a thousand things they wanted to say, but they were blocked by something. The indescribably beautiful atmosphere caused their throbbing hearts to beat once again as they played a beautiful melody. The corners of their lips unconsciously curled up into a sweet and enviable smile.
"I'm hungry."
When Du Yanqing finally woke up, he felt that the two of them being cuddled together was not really appropriate, so he pushed Lu Juyan away. Pulling him into the room, before he even opened his mouth to inquire about the doubts in his heart, he heard Lu Juyan's low and heavy, yet natural words.
"Yes, I'll go cook."
Du Yanqing's train of thoughts just stopped, and his lips curled up into a smile. He walked towards the kitchen and put on the apron that Lu Juyan would usually wear. Looking at the pots and pans in the kitchen, he suddenly felt that it wasn't difficult anymore and also felt a sweet sense of anticipation.
In less than half an hour, Du Yanqing had already brought a bowl of ordinary food over to the table. Coincidentally, Lu Juyan had walked over at this moment, full of anticipation, and she wanted to let Lu Juyan have a taste.
Lu Juyan brought the egg to a little point of focus in the bowl and took a sip. For some reason, he felt like he had eaten a mouthful of salt. He forced himself not to eat that unpleasant feeling, and very naturally swallowed it down. He met Du Yanqing's gaze, and pretended to be relaxed as he opened his mouth: "Delicious!"
"If it's delicious, then eat more!"
The two simple words made Du Yanqing's heart jump with joy. He looked at the ordinary noodles with an extremely pleasing gaze, and watched as Lu Juyan finished all the food beneath his feet before going to the bathroom to wash up.
After finishing the noodles, Lu Juyan felt that his mouth was filled with the taste of salt. When Du Yanqing left, he took the opportunity to pour himself a few cups of water and gulp it down.
No matter how bad the food that Du Yanqing cooked was, Lu Juyan's satisfaction from the bottom of his heart had never faded. At the same time, he secretly felt that he couldn't let her step into the kitchen. Looking at the bathroom's glass door, her lips curled up into a doting smile.
When Du Yanqing came out of the bathroom, he saw Lu Juyan's figure busily working in the kitchen. He felt a bit suspicious at the bottom of his heart, but he walked over and asked: "Are you not full yet?"
