"Okay, come to Shanghai to see me after the New Year. Make sure you're all dressed neatly by then, and we'll go talk business."

"Okay..." Wang Hu wondered if he would also go, would it be like last time, discussing business?

Is it for those Hong Kong businessmen who work for the grain bureau?

I originally thought that since it was so far away, I might as well stay at home with Sister Xue.

But when Chen Yifei said that, he immediately became interested.

He nodded: "Okay."

Chen Yifei felt a little relieved to see that everything was settled.

Once Qingqing is feeling better at the health center, we'll head straight to Shanghai.

There are many people during the Spring Festival, and train tickets are hard to buy, so I asked Chen Yifei to help me buy them.

"Brother Fei, didn't you come back by plane?"

"That's amazing! How many people have ever flown on an airplane these days!"

"You still want me to buy you a ticket?"

"Get lost!" Chen Yifei rolled his eyes at him. "That's called special handling."

"I can't always make exceptions for special cases."

"Alright, I'm off to buy tickets."

Anyway, Wang Hu was happy. He was happy as long as he could spend more time alone with Chen Xue.

He was as happy as a child.

——

Chen Yifei cooked porridge at home to warm his stomach.

Now Qingqing likes this food the most. After cooking it, she packs it in a lunchbox and rides her bicycle to the county town.

I happened to run into an old lady selling flowers.

"Young man, buy a bouquet for your sweetheart!"

Chen Yifei: "..."

My instinct was to turn around and leave.

He didn't really understand what was so good about flowers. There were plenty of wildflowers and weeds growing everywhere, so how could they be romantic?

I've always thought giving this kind of gift is pretty tacky.

but……

I don't know why I was internally complaining, but my legs felt like they couldn't move.

He stood there, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Do girls like this?"

"I love it!" the old woman selling flowers said with a smile. "Who wouldn't be happy to receive flowers? These aren't expensive either; they're pink tulips that my husband grew for me."

"I really like them, but I have too many. I'll sell some. How about I give you nine for fifty cents?"

"All right."

He didn't know why, but he inexplicably picked it up and left.

I was even a little nervous and embarrassed when I arrived at the hospital.

Just as I was about to go in, I arrived at the nurses' station, where a nurse said, "Comrade Chen Yifei, your wife has been taken home by your family. The doctor made rounds this morning and said she can go home and rest properly."

"There wasn't time to tell you."

"Okay, I'll go home."

He seemed a little awkward holding the flowers.

I always felt embarrassed, and I was a little flustered when someone saw me.

Chen Yifei went back to open the door. He Runqing was tidying up, while Zhang Cuizhi and Chen Xue were packing their things.

Chen Xue said, "Xiao Fei, you're back! You stay here and take care of Qing Qing."

"Mom and I are going back first. We've been staying here for several days, and we need to go back to change our clothes. You can take care of us when you come back."

"Why the rush?" Chen Yifei asked.

“Yes,” Chen Xue winked and whispered to him, “I can’t let Mom ruin your newlywed life here.”

"We finally get to see each other after a business trip, and now that we have a place to stay in the county town, we should at least have some time alone together, right?"

"I understand."

Chen Yifei: "You do have some sense."

I've been wanting a wife for a long time.

Especially last night, it really got me all itchy.

I thought about it when I was in Shenzhen, and I've thought about it even more since I came back.

So now I'm happier than anyone else to be able to stand here and look at my wife.

Chen Xue pulled the children away after they had finished packing their things, intending to dawdle while taking care of He Runqing and Chen Yifei's mother.

After everyone left, Chen Yifei took out his flowers.

I don't know how to deliver it.

This is the first time I've ever given someone flowers.

He's never understood these things, and he's usually quite sensitive to romance.

Chen Yifei shrugged, making eight hundred movements in a second, and then He Runqing just stood there by the door, looking at him with a half-smile.

"Comrade Chen Yifei?"

"How long... have you been watching?" Chen Yifei felt even more uncomfortable. Oh no, his wife had seen what was supposed to be a sight only he could see.

He Runqing ran over in quick steps and put the flowers in her arms.

"It's for me!"

"Hmm," he said. "There were some for sale on the way, so I just bought some."

"Do you like it?" This question may seem casual, but it actually reflects more of a concern than anyone else's.

He Runqing had just taken a shower and was still wet all over. Her hair hadn't been dried, and small water droplets were running down her body, which was wrapped in a bath towel.

Standing there, I kissed him on the cheek with great satisfaction: "My husband is so good~"

"You've changed."

Chen Yifei touched his nose, looked at his smooth shoulders and beautiful shoulder blades, then looked away and asked, "What has changed?"

"They've become even nicer to me!"

He Runqing held his hand and stared at him with her pure and beautiful eyes.

From Chen Yifei's angle, one can see He Runqing's gentleness and the things that make her seem more alluring.

I even feel out of place with these glasses.

My Adam's apple bobbed instinctively.

Chen Yifei put his hand around her waist.

He Runqing responded enthusiastically, slowly approaching him in this way, following his rhythm.

At that moment, she was like a seductive enchantress.

He had only one thought: she wasn't wearing underwear.
