She looked up at the wall, which was over two meters high, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Just then, several dog barks came from outside the wall.

It was the secret code she and Zhang Qiang had agreed upon.

Su Yuzhen's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly climbed the ladder.

She carefully leaned her upper body over the wall.

"Brother Qiang!"

Su Yuzhen called out softly.

In the shadows beneath the wall, a spark flickered on and off.

Zhang Qiang walked out from under the poplar tree, a cigarette dangling from his lips. He was still wearing that familiar floral shirt, the collar wide open.

He looked up and saw Su Yuzhen on the wall, and grinned.

"Baby, are you in such a hurry to elope with me?"

Zhang Qiang's voice carried his usual roguish air.

Su Yuzhen felt a sweet warmth well up in her heart as she looked at his roguish smile.

"I'm coming down right now, catch me!"

"No rush, be careful."

As Zhang Qiang spoke, he exhaled a smoke ring and squinted to examine her.

"Huh? Where's your luggage?"

Su Yuzhen then remembered that she had left her bundle in the storeroom in her haste to move the ladder.

"I...I forgot to take it! Wait for me, I'll go right now..."

As she spoke, Su Yuzhen hurriedly descended the wall.

"Hold!"

Seeing Su Yuzhen's figure disappear, Zhang Qiang's expression suddenly changed.

However, he had no other choice but to continue waiting there.

At the foot of the wall, Su Jianguo was about to explode.

These kids of mine are all such a handful, it's one thing to worry about them.

Like the eldest and second eldest sons, now the youngest daughter wants to elope with someone else.

Su Jianguo could no longer hold back.

Su Yuzhen hurriedly climbed down the ladder and ran towards the warehouse.

Su Jianguo took a deep breath and followed silently.
