The night was deep, and a gentle breeze rustled the treetops. In the alleyways, the sound of rapid breathing was drowned out by the wind. Before long, the two walked out of the alley hand in hand. If it weren't for the dim light, their flushed cheeks and rosy lips would have been visible.
Fortunately, there weren't many people on this stretch of road, and no one noticed anything amiss with them.
The further they walked, the more lively the place became. The wide square was filled with festive music, a group of people were dancing around the square, and children were playing and laughing around, creating an extremely lively scene.
Ye Zhao saw Cheng Yu, Mu Xu, Xiao Lin, and Yang Juan chatting, laughing, and jumping happily behind the group of aunties. On a whim, she turned to look at Jiang Che.
Jiang Che met her smiling gaze and subconsciously felt something was wrong. Sure enough, the next second Ye Zhao pulled him towards the square: "Come on, let's go jump too."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Che didn't know how to take a step. He tripped over his own foot and almost made a fool of himself. He pulled Ye Zhao and shook his head, his eyes showing obvious resistance.
Ye Zhao, however, became very interested and pulled him forward. When Jiang Che looked down and saw the joy and expectation in her eyes, his initial resistance disappeared, and he let Ye Zhao pull him into the crowd.
The music was very rhythmic, festive, and atmospheric. Everyone was dancing to the beat, and Ye Zhao joined in, laughing as she said to Jiang Che, "Dance! It's so lively..."
When Cheng Yu and the others saw the two of them coming over, they all cheered and urged Jiang Che to jump along.
Whether at work or in life, the man who was always at ease and in control stood in the crowd somewhat at a loss, until Ye Zhao took his hand again and pulled him to dance to the melody. Only then did Jiang Che awkwardly join in with small movements.
Seeing this, Ye Zhao's smile grew even brighter, and her mood was visibly better.
Jiang Che gradually adapted to the rhythm and became less resistant. When he turned to look at Ye Zhao, he caught a glimpse of her bright and radiant smile. Jiang Che unconsciously smiled indulgently, and his eyes were full of affection as he looked at Ye Zhao, as if his love was overflowing.
Square dancing moves are simple, easy to learn and master, and the atmosphere is lively. Everyone has a smile on their face. Jiang Che watched Ye Zhao dance to the music. Her dance moves were light and graceful, her figure was agile, her long hair fluttered in the wind, and her face always had a bright and cheerful smile, like a fairy who travels under the cover of night, alluring without realizing it.
Jiang Che was tall and imposing, while Ye Zhao was slender and graceful. Both of them had exquisite appearances and stood out in the crowd, attracting attention.
Mu Xu had never seen Jiang Che like this before, and he was so surprised that he couldn't express it. He could only look at Ye Zhao with admiration. From now on, the landlady would be his god!
Everyone was having a great time dancing. Jiang Che noticed that Ye Zhao's forehead was slightly sweaty and her movements weren't as brisk as before, so he took her hand and led her out of the crowd: "Are you tired? Take a break..."
Ye Zhao smiled at him, said nothing, but gave him a thumbs up, her eyes full of admiration.
Jiang Che awkwardly looked away and said, "I wouldn't go if you didn't like me..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhao smiled and took his arm, tilting her head back to say, "Yes, yes, thank you for gracing me with your presence, President Jiang."
Her voice was extremely soft, not like teasing, but more like coquettish. Jiang Che looked down at her, and his smile became even brighter.
The enviable couple walked away hand in hand, and the lively atmosphere in the square became a little quieter. Cheng Yu and the others got tired of dancing and withdrew from the crowd. They found Aunt Zhang and Yuanbao, and the group strolled back slowly.
Ye Zhao had a fulfilling and satisfying day. A faint smile remained on her face. When she spoke to Jiang Che, her voice and tone were noticeably gentler than before. Jiang Che clearly noticed this change and felt satisfied and joyful.
Not long after the two arrived home, a group of people followed them back, and they chatted and laughed for a while.
Cheng Yu saw that it was almost time to go back and rest, so she took Yuanbao's hand and left. Before leaving, she glanced at Jiang Che and Ye Zhao with an extremely ambiguous expression.
Ye Zhao arranged for Jiang Che to stay in the largest room on the second floor. The room was fully equipped with all kinds of daily necessities, and there was also a row of potted plants with small flowers on the windowsill.
Jiang Che saw the row of small flowers by the window, put down his luggage, and walked over.
"It must have taken a lot of effort to keep it blooming this season, right?"
Ye Zhao smiled and said, "These little flowers have been waiting for President Jiang's arrival for a long time. If he hadn't come soon, they would have withered."
Knowing that Jiang Che was coming, Ye Zhao put these potted flowers up. Seeing colorful flowers in this season would lift one's spirits.
Jiang Che smiled and pulled her into his arms, asking in an ambiguous tone, "Did they wait a long time, or did you wait a long time?"
Ye Zhao looked up at him and said, "Can't we just wait?"
Jiang Che's smile widened, and then he pulled Ye Zhao into his arms.
The night outside the window grew darker, and a gentle breeze occasionally blew in. The small flowers on the windowsill trembled in the cold wind. Inside the room, a perfect couple embraced, whispering to each other, occasionally pressing their lips to each other's and expressing their tender feelings.
After some time, Jiang Che went forward and closed the window, then turned to Ye Zhao and said, "Let's go, it's getting late, I'll take you home."
Ye Zhao tidied her slightly messy long hair and nodded, saying, "Okay."
The two walked hand in hand out of the courtyard and into the deserted cobblestone street. They passed the intersection where they first met and the restaurant where they had eaten together. Their conversation flowed more and more, and the only sounds on the empty street were their occasional chatter and laughter.
Jiang Che felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and happiness wash over him, making him exceptionally energetic. Despite being extremely busy these past few days and having very little time to rest, he didn't feel tired at all, only happy and content.
When he returned after dropping Ye Zhao off, he looked at the few potted flowers on the windowsill and felt endless sweetness and happiness in his heart.
Compared to him, Ye Zhao wasn't much better. It wasn't until she finished showering and lay in bed that she realized she had been smiling the whole time. She quickly tried to suppress it, but then she couldn't help but laugh again when she thought of Jiang Che's clumsy dancing that night.
At the same time, Jiang Ze also received a short video from Mu Xu. He opened it and watched it, then threw the phone away with extreme disgust. Seeing that Tan Yuqiu was about to go upstairs, he had an idea and handed the phone to her.
Tan Yuqiu remained silent, quietly watching the strikingly good-looking couple on the screen. They were dancing and exchanging loving smiles, their gazes lingering on each other, making them a very pleasing sight to behold.
