Because it was not stored properly, the paper had yellowed, as if it would shatter with a slight force.

Joe carefully flipped through one by one, trying to find some new clues.

But to her disappointment, these things are just ordinary design drafts. There is not a trace of superfluity.

But her mother rarely speaks, and she likes design. When she is homesick, she will definitely use drawings to express her longing.

Qiao Ai frowned and checked again, but still found nothing.

Joe patted the design with one hand, and supported her forehead with the other hand, and the setting sun shone in, pulling out a often lonely figure behind her.

There is no clue at all.

What exactly should she do now?

Joey's mind was in a mess, as if she was thinking about a lot of things, but she didn't seem to think about anything, and she didn't even feel the passage of time until the ringing of her phone saved her from that state.

Qiao Ai hurriedly flipped out her mobile phone, even if she was in a depressed mood, but the moment she saw the caller ID, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but gently hook up.

"Where are you now? Why don't you go home yet? ”

"I ......" Qiao Ai opened her mouth, only to find that her voice had a hoarseness that she hadn't spoken for a long time, she coughed twice and returned to her normal voice before replying: "I'm at Qiao's house now, I'm back to find something, I didn't pay attention to the time." ”

She glanced at her watch and was shocked to find that it was already eight o'clock in the evening: "I'll go back now." ”

"Wait, I'll pick you up." Zhou Chengyan said and hung up the phone directly.

Qiao Ai turned on the light and carefully rearranged the design draft, and as soon as she finished processing, the mobile phone rang again: "I'm here, come out." ”

"Okay."

Qiao Ai ran out and saw Zhou Chengyan standing in front of the car at a glance, he raised his head slightly, as if admiring the night sky.

The yellowed light shrouded him in a warm glow, melting the sharpness of his facial features and leaving a gentle one.

As if he had a soul, Zhou Chengyan's gaze moved down at this moment and landed on Qiao Ai.

The moment her figure appeared in his sight, there was an intoxicating smile in his eyes, like a fine wine that had been buried for many years.

He raised his hand and beckoned to Joe.

A bright smile bloomed on Qiao Ai's face, she trotted all the way over, and when she was two steps away, she suddenly jumped, Zhou Chengyan raised her hand, caught her steadily, and let her hang on to herself.

Because of the impact, the two turned in a circle.

Zhou Chengyan raised his eyebrows: "Why are you so naughty all of a sudden?" ”

Because I was in a bad mood, but when I saw you, I suddenly felt that everything was no big deal.

As long as you're there, there's always a way.

Qiao Ai didn't say anything, just followed his example, and then raised his eyebrows: "Don't like it?" ”

Zhou Chengyan put her on the front cover of the car, held her waist, kissed her deeply, and answered her with practical actions whether she liked it or not.

There have been many times, but every time, Zhou Chengyan can still make Qiao Ai feel as if it was her first kiss.

At a loss, he didn't know how to react, so he could only passively bear his enthusiasm.

After ten minutes, Zhou Chengyan finally let go of Qiao Ai's lips, but did not narrow the distance between the two, but touched her forehead, touched the tip of her nose, and said softly: "I really want to make you small, take you with me every day, so that you can kiss at any time." "Number Six

Hearing the previous sentence, Qiao Ai's heart was full of emotion, and just wanted to say that she would also have that impulse, but when she heard the shameless words behind him, she glared at him angrily: "Can't you not play hooligan one day?" ”

"No way." Zhou Chengyan's eyes suddenly darkened when he was seen by Qiao Ai's sparkling eyes, and his voice was hoarse: "As soon as I saw you, I liked you so much that I didn't know what to do, I just wanted to be closer to you, closer, and it was better to have a negative distance." ”

Joai didn't know for a moment whether to be moved by his love words, or to be angry at him for playing hooligan in another way.

"Shall we go home next?"

"No, let's go out tonight." Zhou Chengyan hugged Qiao Ai down, opened the car door for her, and put one hand on top of her head.

Zhou Chengyan drove and took Qiao Ai to his destination.

As soon as she got out of the car, Joe recognized her.

A couple's restaurant in one of the couple's dating meccas in City A.

Zhou Chengyan stretched out his arm and smiled at her: "Mrs. Zhou, please." ”

Qiao Ai grabbed his arm and winked playfully: "Mr. Zhou, please." ”

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh again.

The couple's dining room is very dating-like, with slightly dim lighting creating an ambiguous atmosphere, and the seats are separated, so you can't see the movements of other people, but you can faintly hear a little whispering.

Qiao Ai wanted to pull out a chair and sit down at will, but the waiter raised his hand to stop it, and said softly, "Madam, please sit here." ”

Qiao Ai glanced at Zhou Chengyan suspiciously, how could she not know that there were still requirements for seats.

Zhou Chengyan only nodded to her: "Then you can sit over there." ”

"Okay." Joe Ai walked to the opposite side dispensably, the waiter pulled out the chair for her, she was just about to sit down, but found that there seemed to be something on the chair, seeing that the waiter did not squint, Joe herself bent down and took it, and found that it was a bouquet of fragrant red roses.

"This ......"

"This is a little surprise specially prepared for you by your husband, I wish you two a happy meal in advance."

A firework exploded in Joey's heart.

She used to think that some of the surprises prepared when she was in love was just formalism, and she didn't understand why some girls would cry because of a bouquet of flowers sent by her boyfriend.

It wasn't until the protagonist in it was changed to herself that Joai realized that feeling.

"Do you like it?"

"Like, thank you." Qiao Ai nodded vigorously, her face flushed, she sat down with flowers in her hand, and found that the flowers were actually formed into a "Ai", and the heat on her face couldn't help but be heavier.

She lowered her head and tossed with the flowers, changing the subject: "Don't we need to order food here?" ”

"I've ordered everything you like."

As if in response to Zhou Chengyan's words, as soon as his words fell, the waiter brought the steak up.

"Please take your time."

The plate is decorated with radishes carved into roses, and two red hearts connected to each other are painted on the corners, indicating that this is a couple's restaurant.

After Qiao Ai saw the steak in front of Zhou Chengyan, her eyebrows were slightly crappy: "Why does I seem to have more than his?" ”

The waiter smiled and said, "Ma'am, this is the usual practice in the restaurant. ”

How can there be such a convention?
