When Shang Rong returned to City H, the sky was already dark.

It was not because it was late, but because it was going to rain. Therefore, before 4 pm, everything became dark and gloomy.

As Shang Rong walked through the airport lobby, she did not know where to go. She took out her phone, turned on the GPS, and planned to find a nearby place to drink coffee.

However, a phone call suddenly came in and completely disrupted her plan.

The background was a little noisy, and the voice on the phone was very familiar to her. He said in a lazy tone, "Have you arrived?"

Shang Rong responded smoothly and appropriately expressed her surprise, "Brother Ye, how did you know that I was coming back?"

"Oh, Wenzhou called in advance and said that you were coming back to write a report." Ye Xiu's tone had a hint of a smile. He sounded like he was in a good mood.

"How come I didn't know that your school was so troublesome?"

Shang Rong felt that this comment was very reasonable. She nodded and said, "Maybe all famous schools are like this."

"Where do you plan to go?

I think it's still early. "Ye Xiu smiled and continued to ask.

Shang Rong glanced at her watch and said tentatively, "I want to find a place to rest..."

"Well, based on your personality, you're probably going to find a coffee shop to sit down and write the report, right?" Ye Xiu speculated seriously.

"It's not that I want to criticize you, but you don't have to rush something like a report. It's not like you have to submit it right away."

"Then, Brother Ye, what do you think I should do?" Shang Rong understood what he was implying and asked with a smile.

Ye Xiu laughed and said, "Look up, three o'clock."

Shang Rong listened to his instructions and looked up. Sure enough, she saw Ye Xiu leaning against the back of a chair in the corner of the lobby with his legs crossed.

Noticing her gaze, Ye Xiu waved his phone at her suggestively.

Shang Rong smiled and ran over quickly. When she was only a few steps away, she aimed at Ye Xiu and pounced.

Ye Xiu was already familiar with her routine. He stood up and took a step forward. He naturally stretched out his arms and took her into his embrace. He raised his hand and patted her head. He smiled and said, "You almost broke my old bones."

Knowing that he was joking again, Shang Rong also played along and laughed: "Then I'll ask Brother Rui to pick me up next time. Brother Rui is younger and not afraid of bumps."

Ye Xiu raised his eyebrows. Shang Rong observed his expression and indifferently added, "That's strange. I thought the first one to come and pick me up would be Guoguo or Cheng Cheng. I didn't expect it to be Brother Ye."

"Then I'm sorry to disappoint you." Ye Xiu smiled calmly.

"Your fruit army has abandoned you.

But Shang Rongrong classmate, your thoughts are terrible. After leaving the revolutionary team, you began to dislike your old comrades? "

"I don't dislike it," Shang Rong replied patiently, taking the bait with him.

"I missed you so much. I was so happy to see you pick me up."

She still had a smile on her face when she said this. Different from before, her eyes were also smiling. Her chestnut-brown eyes were shining.

Ye Xiu stared blankly at that pair of eyes for two seconds before he asked her seriously, "Isn't your illness cured?

Why are you even more naughty than before? "

Shang Rong blinked her eyes and said innocently: "Brother Ye, do you think I'm naughty?"

"Okay, no need to be mischievous." Ye Xiu couldn't do anything about her wet, doe-like eyes. He helplessly tapped her forehead.

"Good girl, let's go. If we don't go out, the boss will rush us."

Shang Rong was exceptionally obedient and let him hold her hand as they walked towards the entrance of the hall.

…

A black nanny van was parked in the parking lot in front of the airport. Ye Xiu walked in front and opened the back seat door, motioning her to get in.

Shang Rong looked inside first and met the big brown eyes of the girl inside, which were full of smiles.

"Cheng Cheng!"

Shang Rong cheered with a little surprise and jumped into the car without hesitation. She climbed into the back seat and hugged Su Mucheng.

Buried in the girl's soft and fragrant embrace, Shang Rong intimately rubbed her shoulder and said softly: "Long time no see, I missed you."

"I missed you too, Rongrong." Su Mucheng smiled, her slender white fingers gently sliding across her pale cheeks.

"Long time no see, you've lost weight." She couldn't help but sigh.

"Ahem!" Chen Guo, who was in the driver's seat, found that she was ignored. She cleared her throat unwillingly.

"Ah, Guoguo is also here!" Shang Rong immediately turned her attention to the front seat. After taking a closer look, she was overjoyed.

"And Brother Rui?

That's great!

I was thinking about you guys just now! "

"Xiaoshang Rong, are you serious?" Fang Rui was overjoyed.

Ye Xiu also jumped into the back seat and sat next to Shang Rong. At this time, he acted as if nothing had happened and said: "How can that be, Shang Rongrong clearly said 'you guys', I didn't hear wrong, right?"

"Go away, all of you!" Chen Guo held the steering wheel with a look of disgust.

"Didn't you hear her call me?"

"Well, Xiaoshang Rong called me anyway!" Fang Rui was unwilling to give up and made a shameless expression.

Shang Rong didn't expose anyone, she just smiled and watched them bicker.

"Rongrong, are you sleepy?"

Su Mucheng noticed the dark circles under her eyes and kindly and considerately supported her, letting her lean on her shoulder.

"Sleep for a while."

Shang Rong understood. Following her strength, he sat back and slowly leaned against the girl's narrow shoulders.

Smelling the light but not strong fragrance of hair, her breathing gradually stabilized.

As she fell asleep, the men, who seemed to be focused on bickering, tacitly fell silent.

In unison, except for Chen Guo, who had to concentrate on driving, everyone's eyes were focused on her.

In order to let her sleep more comfortably, Su Mucheng refused to move and only looked at her from the corner of her eyes.

Ye Xiu quietly stared at the girl's peaceful sleeping face for a while. Seeing a lock of chestnut-colored hair naughtily hanging down by her ear, he couldn't help but raise his hand and touch it with his fingertips.

The touch was soft and smooth, like brocade.

Shang Rong had always cherished her hair.

"It seems that you are really tired." Noticing Su Mucheng's gaze, Ye Xiu smiled and said lightly.

Su Mucheng understood and smiled without saying anything.

Fang Rui, who was in the front passenger seat, was still muttering in a low voice, "Ye Xiu, you are shameless. I knew you didn't sit in the front because you wanted to play this game …"

Ye Xiu calmly treated him as a gust of wind.

When they arrived at their destination, Shang Rong was still asleep.

Ye Xiu was the first to get out of the car and easily carried her into the house.

"Can you carry her?" Fang Rui was deeply surprised and took the opportunity to give a suggestion with a mysterious smile.

"How about I do it?"

Ye Xiu weighed the petite girl in his arms and casually responded with a smile, "You don't have to trouble Fang Rui. I can do it."

Chen Guo walked in front and unlocked the door. As soon as she opened the door, she involuntarily let out an "ah" sound.

Su Mucheng was next to Ye Xiu and curiously stuck her head out to take a look. She was also a bit surprised. "Captain Yu?

Captain Zhou?

And Sun Xiang?

That is — "

Ye Xiu heard her surprise and looked up. A face identical to his was smiling at him.

"Yo, what kind of wind is blowing today?" Ye Xiu appropriately expressed his surprise.

"A few completely unrelated people actually showed up at the same time?"

"Long time no see." Yu Wenzhou was the first to stand up from the sofa and pick up the box on the table with a smile.

"This is your birthday present. Happy birthday."

Ye Xiu didn't hesitate and nodded directly. "Thanks, Wenzhou."

"Happy birthday."

Zhou Zekai also nodded politely. His dark and clear eyes were reserved and tactful … directly staring at the girl in Ye Xiu's arms.

Ye Xiu couldn't help but laugh when he saw his dog's eyes staring at a bone: "I say, Little Zhou, whose birthday are you celebrating?

You didn't even look at me when you gave your blessings? "

Zhou Zekai: "…"

"Ye Xiu, don't sprain your back. I'll carry her." Sun Xiang directly expressed his attitude and walked over to reach out his hand.

Ye Qiu was the calmest. Although he also stood up, he was so calm that he didn't move at all … Even though he was also fully focused on the sleeping Shang Rong.

Ye Xiu smiled and didn't move from his spot, but his arm pulled back. It was obvious that he wasn't willing to hand her over.

Thus, Sun Xiang's face darkened. If it wasn't for the fact that his beloved girl was still sleeping, he would have already exploded and started cursing.

Ye Xiu glanced at his expression and continued to argue with him. "Don't blame me for not reminding you. Shang Rongrong, this girl, likes to be hugged by the champion more than the runner-up."

Sun Xiang: "…"

(Voiceover.

Zhang Jiale: I have a bunch of curses, but I don't know if I should say them!)

Chen Guo looked from one to the other, observing the strange atmosphere. She really wanted to interrupt them, but she couldn't bring herself to do so.

Just then, Shang Rong suddenly moved and frowned.

For a moment, all eyes were focused on her.

Shang Rong frowned slightly and softly murmured, "Ye Qiu … Happy birthday."

At that moment, the atmosphere was really stiff.

Ye Qiu couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing. He didn't forget to pat Ye Xiu's arm comfortingly and pretended to take it. "It's okay. Wishing me well is the same as wishing you well."

"Of course. Who are we?" Ye Xiu said seriously.

"Me hugging her is the same as you hugging her."

Ye Qiu: "…"

After defeating three people in a short minute, Ye Xiu felt slightly satisfied. He hugged the soft and fragrant girl and went straight upstairs to his bedroom under the angry gazes of the crowd.

After putting Shang Rong on the bed and covering her with a blanket, Ye Xiu finally let out a sigh of relief. He stretched his shoulders and muttered to himself, "Although she's not heavy, it's quite tiring …"

The girl was sleeping peacefully and did not have any reaction.

Ye Xiu lowered his eyes and stared at her for a while. He subconsciously raised his hand to touch her pink, soft, and smooth lips and sighed. "You didn't call me by the wrong name, right?"

"Ye Xiu." Shang Rong's eyes were still closed peacefully when she suddenly called out in a low voice.

Ye Xiu was shocked. He instinctively sat up straight and froze in fear.

Then he heard her say softly, "Goodnight."

"What goodnight?

We're going to eat cake later. "Ye Xiu couldn't help but laugh. His gaze lingered on her lips for a while.

After a short moment of hesitation, he leaned over and gently kissed those seductive petal-like lips.
