After thinking it over, she decided not to go in. She tiptoed down the things and left.

Meanwhile, Pei An had actually heard the commotion when she arrived, but just as he was about to get up and open the door, the person outside put down her things and left, leaving him both amused and exasperated.

What are you laughing at?

It turned out that the two were reading and chatting. It was a way for them to relax after work.

Pei An put down the book in his hand and stood up. "Someone came in just now, dropped off their things and left. I didn't even have a chance to talk to you."

Upon hearing this, Xu Wei immediately stood up and said, "I guess my parents or my daughter are bringing me soup!"

She glanced at Pei An again as she spoke, knowing that her family was trying to match her up with him.

They must have heard the two people's voices, and not wanting to disturb them, they put down their things and left.

She considered this a lot, and as she got to know him better, she realized that Pei An was indeed a good partner...

The two hurried over and opened the door, only to find a large package and a food box lying quietly on the ground. The person was nowhere to be seen.

Pei An squatted down to pick up the things. Seeing Xu Wei walk far away looking for someone, he laughed and called out, "Don't bother looking anymore. It's probably Ya Jing. She's quick and efficient; she's definitely far away by now!"

Xu Wei thought about it and realized it made sense, so she had no choice but to come back.

"This girl, it's so cold, why doesn't she go inside to warm up and have a cup of hot water? She's going all the way back, she'll probably catch a cold!"

"You're worrying too much. Ya Jing is in great health, has a good appetite, and is very nimble. She won't get cold."

That's what he said, but he also decided that he would take a detour to check it out on his way back.

Xu Wei took the things and went inside with a smile.

Upon opening the food box, a familiar aroma wafted out.

She went over and took another pair of bowls and chopsticks, dividing them into two portions.

"Oh, I won't drink it, this is for you to nourish your body!"

Xu Wei, however, pushed the bowl and chopsticks towards him without allowing him to refuse.

“You train a lot every day and are always on missions, so you need to replenish your energy. You drink first, and I'll check the contents of your package.”

Opening the package, she saw the soft cotton fabric filled with a thick cotton core, and her heart softened.

"I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to go home and see my parents. I don't even know how they are doing, or if the two little ones have grown taller..."

Pei An felt a pang of sadness upon hearing this. Their research institute bore the responsibility of the nation's rise, and many researchers spent ten days to half a month in the laboratory without being able to go home.

Even worse, like Xu Wei in the past, some people couldn't go home for several years.

"Why don't you go back today? I'll pick you up for work tomorrow morning?"

He knew how much Xu Wei missed home.

Xu Wei considered the progress of the experiment and ultimately declined.

"No, no one else has gone home yet, so I can't leave. But could you do me a favor?"

"You tell me, I'll do it."

He roughly guessed what she was going to do, and Xu Wei's heart was warmed by his attitude of agreeing without even asking.

She happily went to the back lounge to get her things.

"When I get stuck in my experiments, I like to knit. Some of these are for my parents, some for my daughter, some for my two little ones, and some for my sister Huan."

After saying this, she shyly took out a blue scarf from her bag.

"And, there's something for you too..." Before she could finish her sentence, her face flushed red.

Pei An was deeply moved by this scene, his chest heaving with emotion, the words "There's something for you too..." echoing in his ears.

"Weiwei... thank you, I like it very much, I really like it!"

He carefully took the scarf and solemnly wrapped it around his neck.

He vowed in his heart that he would never lose this scarf in his life.

Xu Wei was very happy to see that he liked it.

For a moment, the entire office was filled with a pink bubble of romance between the two...
