What he didn't tell An Youhe was that he was going to Guangchuan on a business trip the next day to catch up on a project.

For the entire day, An Youhe showed no intention of speaking to Ye Zhou.

Ye Zhou was helpless and couldn't find a chance to explain to her that he was about to leave on a business trip.

On second thought, it's only the beginning of the school year, and there's a lot to do and everyone is very busy, so An Youhe should be able to focus on her studies.

Whether I leave or not, it won't have much of an impact on her.

The next morning, Ye Zhou didn't rush to school. Instead, he got up even earlier than the girl, prepared breakfast early, and waited at the table.

Finally, the bedroom door opened, and the girl came out. Having not eaten all night, she found it hard to resist the temptation of delicious food.

Ye Zhou smiled, noting that he had even made tomato noodles today.

"Come and eat." Ye Zhou extended his hand to the girl.

An Youhe pouted, glanced at the dining table, walked out the door, her schoolbag still on her back.

Ye Zhou was incredibly surprised. "I made this especially for you. Aren't you going to eat it?"

The gate closed, and the girl left.

Ye Zhou sighed again and sat down at the table.

I really didn't expect that An Youhe would be so stubborn now. Does he only feel happy when he says that there's no way he can save her in the future?

Ye Zhou had already asked his counselor for leave, so he didn't need to go to school today.

He just threw on some clothes; his back had already scabbed over, and as long as he didn't move around too much, the wound didn't hurt at all.

The company car had already arrived at his doorstep. Ye Zhou put on a black suit, glanced at his phone, and saw that it was already 10:00 AM.

An Youhe didn't eat breakfast; he ate two large bowls of food with tears in his eyes.

Hu Lai leaned out of the car window. "Team leader, are we leaving now?"

Ye Zhou nodded. "Let's go."

He then got into the car.

In the previous two hours, he had arranged everything, including a cleaning lady who would come every day to clean or do shopping.

Although An Youhe doesn't like others disturbing her life, it's better to have someone to talk to than to be alone.

Ye Zhou got into the van, and after thinking for a moment, he sent a message to An Youhe before leaving.

"I'm going on a business trip, it'll probably take two weeks. Take good care of yourself."

Ye Zhou sent a message, and An Youhe, who used to reply instantly, was now silent.

For the first time, Ye Zhou felt depressed, with a sense of gain and loss.

The car was driving smoothly on the city road when it suddenly braked hard.

Hu Lai cursed, "Damn it, this guy's got a death wish! He's even blocking cars. Is he trying to scam me?"

Ye Zhou thought to himself, "Today is truly a day of bad luck. No, these past few days have been a day of bad luck."

Looking up, I saw a girl standing by the glass window, panting, her arms outstretched, blocking the car's path.

Upon seeing the familiar face, Ye Zhou immediately said, "Stop the car and open the door."

Ye Zhou opened the door, and the girl ran to the side door as well.

"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in class at this time?"

The girl squeezed herself into the back seat and then expertly closed the door.

Hu Lai looked in the rearview mirror, completely unaware of what had happened.

"I'll go with you."

Ye Zhou opened his eyes wide; this was the first time in the past two days that he had heard An Youhe speak.

"Why are you coming with me? It'll take two weeks, and you'll miss a lot of classes."

"It's okay, I'll go with you."

Ye Zhou looked closely and saw that the girl's eyes were red, as if she had been crying again.

"Hu Lai, let's go."

Hu Lai stared at the rearview mirror, finally snapping out of his daze, "Okay, okay."

Ye Zhou quietly took the girl's hand. "Are you still angry?"

An Youhe lowered her head and said, "I'll come over and apply the medicine for you."

Ye Zhou laughed, "Just say you want to stay with me, there's no need to make up excuses."

The girl blushed and remained silent.

Hu Lai finally noticed something was wrong. "Team leader, is this girl your girlfriend?"

Ye Zhou nodded, "Yes."

Hu Lai looked at the girl with red lips and white teeth in the rearview mirror and said, "Did you two have a fight? Is she not willing to talk to you? Team leader, I never thought you'd be in this situation."

Ye Zhou pursed his lips and looked at the rearview mirror. Hu Lai was so frightened that he trembled and stopped talking.

Ye Zhou held An Youhe's hand. "What's wrong? Feeling down? Not saying anything?"

The girl's nose was red. She suddenly moved closer to Ye Zhou, wrapped her arms around his arm, and pressed them tightly together.

Ye Zhou contentedly brushed the girl's bangs aside.

"Isn't that right?"

"Gurgle gurgle gurgle!"

Ye Zhou suddenly burst out laughing, "You didn't eat yesterday, and you didn't eat this morning either. Let me see how hungry you are?"

If you pinch it with your hand, not a single bit of flesh will come out.

"Look, you've gotten so thin from starvation. Let's have a meal together later."

An Youhe nodded sullenly.

"Sulking is not a good habit; you'll only starve yourself!"

Ye Zhou smiled and ruffled the girl's hair.

Once on the plane, An Youhe sat next to Ye Zhou.

After an eight-hour flight, Ye Zhou simply couldn't lie down to sleep; his back was aching slightly.

An Youhe reached out and pulled Ye Zhou's body into her arms.

It's incredibly soft, softer than any other pillow.

"Isn't this much better?"

As An Youhe spoke, her soft, fair hands gently stroked Ye Zhou's cheek.

Ye Zhou felt very comfortable being stroked and nodded with his eyes closed.

"It would be more comfortable if the position were moved up a little."

An Youhe looked down, pouting her pink lips. Ye Zhou was being a scoundrel again.

"Okay, okay, go to sleep quietly and don't talk."

Ye Zhou suddenly said, "Seriously, what about your homework? Did you ask for leave before you left?"

An Youhe shook her head.

The process of asking for leave was really troublesome, requiring her to go to many places to get stamps. When she learned that Ye Zhou was going on a business trip while she was in class, she simply grabbed her bag and ran out without a second thought.

"That's bad, you might get a demerit for doing that."

An Youhe was quite frank, saying, "So be it."

"Even if you get a demerit, you still have to stay with me, right?"

The girl's fair cheeks flushed. "You, you should go to sleep."

Ye Zhou looked at the girl's pink lips and said, "Give me a kiss to make up for the hurt you caused me with the cold shoulder these past two days."

"I... I didn't use emotional abuse."

"You've been deliberately ignoring me and not talking to me these past two days. Don't you know how much damage this behavior is causing to my young heart?"

An Youhe was eager to explain, so she picked up the schoolbag next to her and took out a small bottle from it.

Ye Zhou took it and looked at it. It was dark inside, with some kind of dark green color, and there was an unpleasant smell.
