Chapter 17: Romance

Wang Yitong whispered, "Brother Yuan, I live in this room, please come in." She took the key, opened the door, and invited Zhang Benyuan into the bedroom.

Zhang Benyuan walked into the bedroom and took in the decor. Although small, Wang Yitong had made it cozy. A floral tablecloth and a vase of flowers covered the table. Several books, notebooks, and pens lay on the table. Next to the bookshelf was a small bookcase. Next to the window sat a cartoon floor mat and a small white table, similar to a tatami mat.

"This room is very warm and very much in your style," said Zhang Benyuan.

Wang Yitong smiled and said, "Thank you. I like to make the room more comfortable."

The two stood in the room, feeling awkward and nervous. Suddenly, Zhang Benyuan approached Wang Yitong and gently put his arm around her waist.

Wang Yitong's heart beat faster. She looked up at Zhang Benyuan's eyes and a blush appeared on her face.

Zhang Benyuan slowly lowered his head and kissed Wang Yitong on the lips. This kiss was full of tenderness and love, and Wang Yitong also responded gently. The two bodies gradually moved closer, feeling each other's warmth.

After a while, they slowly separated, their eyes filled with sweetness and tenderness.

"Tongtong, although you have decorated this place very warmly, I think you need to move to another place. It is not very convenient and safe for you and me to live here." Zhang Benyuan said to Wang Yitong.

"Sharing a house is just like this. It's not as convenient as living alone, but the rent is cheaper." Wang Yitong said in a low voice.

Zhang Benyuan gently stroked Wang Yitong's hair and said, "Don't worry about the rent. I will contact someone to help you find a house. You just need to go and see if you like it."

Wang Yitong felt a warm feeling in her heart. She looked at Zhang Benyuan, her eyes gleaming with gratitude and happiness. "Thank you, Brother Yuan."

Wang Yitong was deeply moved when she heard this. She knew Zhang Benyuan really cared about her.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Yuan. I will go and see the house." Wang Yitong said with a smile.

Zhang Benyuan hugged Wang Yitong and said, "Okay, it's settled. Also, don't tell anyone about our relationship when you return to the newspaper office. It might have a negative impact on you."

Wang Yitong thought about it and felt that Zhang Benyuan's words made sense. She didn't want to bring unnecessary trouble to her work because of their relationship.

"I understand, Brother Yuan. I will pay attention. Brother Yuan, I have to go out to distribute newspapers at the talent market tomorrow." Wang Yitong said.

"You still want to go out on weekends? You mentioned before that your job makes you a little bored. Now you are looking for a new place to live. You can also reconsider changing to a job you like. You have to be happy at work. If you are not happy at work, you are asking for trouble." Zhang Benyuan continued.

Wang Yitong's heart was moved after hearing this. She knew that what Zhang Benyuan said made sense, and job satisfaction had a significant impact on the quality of life.

"But I don't know what kind of job I really like." Wang Yitong looked confused.

Zhang Benyuan looked at her encouragingly and said, "This requires some time and reflection. You can review your interests and hobbies and areas of expertise. Or try some new things to see if there are any that spark your interest. You can also talk to friends and colleagues and listen to their advice and experiences."

Wang Yitong nodded, thinking that Zhang Benyuan’s suggestion was very practical.

"Thank you, Brother Yuan. I will think about it carefully." Wang Yitong said gratefully.

Zhang Benyuan gently pinched Wang Yitong's cheek and said, "You're welcome. I hope you can find a job that makes you happy and satisfied. If there's anything you need help with or want to discuss, please let me know."

A warm feeling surged in Wang Yitong's heart. She knew that Zhang Benyuan's support and encouragement would give her the courage to pursue her dream.

"Tongtong, it's getting late. Go to bed early tonight." Zhang Benyuan gently hugged Wang Yitong and said softly.

"Good night, Brother Yuan." Wang Yitong smiled in response.

Before leaving, Zhang Benyuan kissed Wang Yitong affectionately, then left her room, went downstairs, and returned to his car. He sat in the driver's seat, feeling incredibly happy. Tonight's time together had left him longing to spend more quality time with her.

Zhang Benyuan started his car and slowly drove out of the residential complex. The streets were quiet and charming at night, their lights twinkling like stars. He turned on some music, immersed in the warm atmosphere, his thoughts drifting to Wang Yitong.

He recalled every little moment with her, her smile as warm as the spring breeze, her tenderness as gentle as clear water, all of which made his heart tremble.

Wang Yitong lay on the bed, thinking back to the kiss just now, her heart filled with happiness and anticipation. She knew that her relationship with Zhang Benyuan had made new progress, and she was willing to slowly explore this relationship and see where it would go.
