I don't know how much time had passed. Finally, Zhao Youting slowly let go of Qin Qiao'er. He still missed the scent on Qin Qiao'er's body so much, which made him feel incredibly warm.
When Zhao Youting finally released Qin Qiao'er, she took a moment to catch her breath where she stood, then lowered her head deeply.
Zhao Youting forcefully pulled Qin Qiao'er into his arms and whispered softly to her, "Thank you for saying yes to me."
Hearing this, Qin Qiao'er struggled to break free from Zhao Youting's embrace. Then, looking serious, she said to him, "I'm not with you out of gratitude. I truly like you, that's why I'm with you."
Zhao Youting was stunned upon hearing this. Did he hear it right? Qin Qiao'er just said she liked him.
After saying this, as if just realizing her shyness, Qin Qiao'er quickly buried her head in Zhao Youting's arms.
At this moment, with a big smile on his face, Zhao Youting said to Qin Qiao'er, "Why are you getting shy? You've said what you said, so you have to be responsible for me."
The two hugged sweetly for quite a while. When they finally separated, Qin Qiao'er picked up her phone to check the time and was shocked to find it was already so late.
It was already past four in the morning. Zhao Youting suggested they might as well watch the sunrise here. He sometimes stayed here until dawn, and the sunrise here was really beautiful.
So the two got back into the car. It was a bit cold outside, and once they were back in the warm car, their relationship seemed to heat up further.
Watching the darkness in front gradually being swallowed up as the sun rising from that side slowly shed its light bit by bit.
Qin Qiao'er watched the whole process of the sunrise. It was as if her whole being had been sublimated. It seemed that from this day on, a new life was about to begin for her.
She made up her mind to forget all the past from now on. She would no longer be obsessed with finding out who the father of her two children was. She must cherish everything she had now.
Zhao Youting also silently made up his mind in his heart that from now on, he must treat Qin Qiao'er better and never let her suffer more grievances.
After the sun had fully risen, Zhao Youting said gently to Qin Qiao'er, "Good morning, baby."
Although Qin Qiao'er was very shy, she still replied firmly to Zhao Youting, "Good morning."
The scenery on the way back home was completely different from when they came. Just as the sky was getting bright, the farmers outside started to fetch water and cook. Wispy smoke was rising from one household after another.
At this moment, it was as if they had returned from the illusory feeling of last night to reality. From this day on, it was a new and wonderful day, and also the first day of their relationship.
When they got home, they finally felt sleepy. They hadn't slept all night.
The two were like young and impulsive kids. Just in the early days of their relationship, they stayed up all night and went to the mountaintop to watch the stars.
Qin Qiao'er had never thought before, and would definitely not have believed that she would do such a thing. Although they were no longer young, this was their first love, so they still felt very curious about everything.
After Zhao Youting coaxed Qin Qiao'er to sleep, he went back to the company. He still had a lot of things to deal with today.
Although he hadn't slept all night, he didn't feel tired at all. The time this night seemed to pass very quickly, as if in the blink of an eye.
When he went to the company, he was full of energy, and there was a faint smile on his face that he didn't even notice.
He was especially easy - going today. Everyone was whispering about what good thing had happened to the boss. His temper was so much better today.
During a meeting, someone made a mistake, but the boss just calmly asked him to repeat it. If it were in normal times, he would have flown into a rage long ago.
Everyone was very curious, but no one dared to ask what had happened. At this time, Man San came to Zhao Youting's company to look for him.
As soon as he entered Zhao Youting's office, he was startled by Zhao Youting's appearance. He had never seen Zhao Youting smiling while working before.
He quickly walked up to Zhao Youting, reached out and touched his forehead, "What's wrong with you? You don't have a fever. Have you been driven crazy by work?"
Zhao Youting impatiently waved Man San's hand away, looked up at him, then lowered his head and continued his work, "What are you here for?"
Seeing that Zhao Youting wasn't angry even in this state and was still talking to him nicely, Man San became even more suspicious. He asked curiously, "What's up? What good thing happened? Share it with your brother."
"Get out of here. It's none of your business. What on earth are you here for?"
"Isn't it because I haven't seen you for so long and I miss you? Seriously, anyone can tell something is off from the expression on your face. Are you that happy to be with Qin Qiao'er?"
Hearing Man San say this, Zhao Youting finally looked up and asked in surprise, "How do you know?"
Man San sneered, "Sure enough. I knew it. Besides her, there's no one else who can make you this happy."
Zhao Youting said seriously, "You don't understand."
"Oh come on, your mouth is almost grinning from ear to ear. It's me who doesn't understand. Why did it take you so long to win this girl over? You're so slow."
"Only by getting her like this can I know how to cherish her. And I think Qin Qiao'er is worth it."
Hearing Zhao Youting seriously saying these sweet words to him, Man San raised his hands in surrender, "Alright, alright. Stop showing off your love."
Zhao Youting said disdainfully, "It was you who came to ask in the first place."
"Hey, let's get serious..." Man San came to talk to Zhao Youting about business matters. The two sat on either side of the desk, looking very serious.
Just as they were discussing heatedly, suddenly there was a knock on the door from outside. Zhao Youting didn't even look up, "Come in."
Then a timid voice said, "Am I disturbing you?"
As soon as Zhao Youting heard the voice, he knew it was Qin Qiao'er. Then he suddenly looked up and saw Qin Qiao'er peeping in at the door.
The serious expression on Zhao Youting's face when he was talking about business just now disappeared in an instant, replaced by a big smile. He quickly stood up and told Qin Qiao'er to come in quickly.
