  • Next Chapter

Zhou Chengchen rarely talks in such a serious and emotional manner, Xiao Rou listened in a daze, and surprisingly felt a touch of emotion.

However, her feeling lasted less than two seconds before Zhou Chengchen slapped the steering wheel and said: "My brother is definitely trouble, you took him in, you’re practically doing a service to society, tough job!"

Xiao Rou: "..."

Although Zhou Chengchen quickly veered off course, the meaning she wanted to convey was understood by Xiao Rou.

Zhou Qi is serious about her; he intends to marry her.

A soft feeling passed through Xiao Rou’s heart, and she couldn’t help but recall Zhou Qi’s words from that night.

Zhou Chengchen drove Xiao Rou back to the milk tea shop, and she herself then ran off to Xi Siyan’s company.

Xiao Rou returned to the shop, and since she hadn’t had lunch, she ordered takeaway while on the way. Minutes after arriving, the delivery arrived.

"Rourou, did you go out at noon without eating?"

Xiao Rou shook her head and took a few bites of her meal.

"Who did you go out with if you didn’t even have lunch?"

Xu Qingqing muttered, Xiao Rou smiled: "A friend."

"The one who just drove you back?"

Earlier, Zhou Chengchen had parked the car by the roadside, easily visible from the milk tea shop.

Although Xu Qingqing seemed slightly inquisitive, making Xiao Rou a bit surprised, she didn’t think too much about it and just responded casually: "Yes."

Because she went out for a while during noon, Xiao Rou stayed a bit longer in the afternoon. She was the first to arrive at the shop and usually the first to leave, Xu Qingqing next, and only Liu Chaoyang stayed till the end.

But today, Xiao Rou stayed because she was out at noon, and Xu Qingqing inexplicably stayed as well.

In the winter evening, it gets dark quite early, and as Xiao Rou and the others finished their busy work and ordered takeaway during a short break, it was already fully dark outside.

While eating the somewhat warm takeaway, the sound of howling wind could be heard outside.

"Is the weather changing?"

Liu Chaoyang muttered while eating, looking at the weather outside.

Xiao Rou glanced outside, then turned to Xu Qingqing: "Qingqing, if the weather is changing, maybe you should leave early?"

Xu Qingqing also took a look outside and asked Xiao Rou: "What about you?"

"I live close by."

Xiao Rou said, and Xu Qingqing sighed in envy: "True, you’re close by, plus your boyfriend is coming to pick you up later, how lucky... alright then, I’ll head off first."

Xu Qingqing said while quickly finishing her meal, unraveled her apron, grabbed her bag, and prepared to leave.

Meanwhile, Xiao Rou had received a message from Zhou Qi. She replied and stayed at the shop with Liu Chaoyang.

Liu Chaoyang is a lively young man, staying with him is never awkward, they chatted casually until Xu Qingqing returned.

"What’s wrong? Did you forget something?"

Xu Qingqing looked frustrated: "No, I couldn’t get a cab after waiting a long time, and the bus didn’t come either. It’s too cold outside, so I decided to come back."

Xu Qingqing said as she walked back into the shop and stood by the heater for a while.

Xiao Rou opened her mouth to say something, but soon heard a pattering sound outside; raindrops fell like glass beads, making a loud noise.

"Good thing I came back."

Xu Qingqing spoke gratefully; Xiao Rou decided not to say anything more, she originally wanted to remind her that it might be even harder to leave if they didn’t go now.
