Xiao Qian slowly turned around and met Zuo Chuan's sunny smiling face.
For some reason, she suddenly felt warm in her heart and her eyes were sore.
A gentle breeze blew by, like a pair of soft hands, gently ruffling her hair.
The hair on her temples fluttered in the wind, playfully brushing against her cheeks, adding a bit of agility and charm.
The crape myrtle trees are in full bloom on the roadside, and the tightly clustered flowers sway in the wind, and the crape myrtle flowers fall like pink snow.
A petal fell slowly, landing squarely on Xiao Qian's hairpin.
Zuo Chuan was stunned, staring at her with infatuated eyes, standing there in a daze.
Xiao Qian turned her back, tilted her head slightly, and blinked hard.
The petal that fell on the hairpin slowly fell.
Zuo Chuan subconsciously reached out to take it.
Just at this moment, Xiao Qian turned her head and her face fell into his palm.
Their eyes met, their expressions froze instantly, and their bodies seemed to be cast under a spell, standing still.
After a moment of distraction, Xiao Qian rolled her eyes and glanced at the hand beside her face, "You want to slap me?"
Zuo Chuan laughed angrily, "What's your train of thought?"
"A petal fell on your head, and you wanted to catch it, but you turned your head at that moment."
Xiao Qian raised her hand and touched her hair doubtfully.
"I'll help you," Zuo Chuan took a half step forward towards her, holding the phone and putting it in his trouser pocket.
When he took his hand out again, there was a glimmer of light between his fingers.
Zuo Chuan raised his hand and gently gathered the hair around her ears. "Look, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Before she finished her words, a necklace fell from above and swayed slightly in front of her.
The necklace pendant is a white jade peony inlaid with diamonds.
Peony is her favorite flower.
It turned out that he kept in mind everything she mentioned casually.
"Zuo Chuan, you said you've been pursuing me for a year, and you were very casual in how you addressed me, but it seems like you've never formally confessed your feelings to me."
"You..." Zuo Chuan's pupils suddenly shrank, and he confirmed in disbelief, "Are you agreeing to me?"
"What did I promise you? You didn't say anything." Xiao Qian pouted proudly.
His eyes widened instantly, and bright stars seemed to suddenly light up in his pupils.
The corners of his mouth, which were tightly pursed due to nervousness, began to lift up little by little, revealing a row of neat white teeth. His brilliant smile bloomed freely like sunshine penetrating through the clouds.
Then he suddenly jumped high and waved his fist vigorously in the air, as if announcing the joy of victory to the whole world.
After landing, he excitedly turned around a few times on the spot, his steps as light as if he was following the beat of a drum.
Just then, the cell phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Zuo Chuan's excited expression froze instantly.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Qian leaned over to look at his phone. It was a call from his workplace.
Zuo Chuan touched his head awkwardly and said, "I...I need to take a call."
Xiao Qian's face also fell.
Looking back over the past year, Zuo Chuan went to the clinic almost every time he had free time, and asked her to do many things together.
For example, he asked her to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms on the weekend, but before they started digging, he received a call from his company and was called away, leaving her alone in the mountains with the plants and trees.
For example, he asked her to see a movie after get off work, but he was called away halfway through.
For example, they made an appointment to go skiing together, but when she went into the locker room to change into her ski clothes, she couldn't find him anymore.
…
There are so many things like this.
Zuo Chuan hung up the phone, looked at her apologetically, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Xiao Qian forced a smile and waved to him, "Bye."
Zuo Chuan strode towards her and hugged her tightly in his arms. His arms were as strong as iron hoops, as if he wanted to merge her into his body.
He rested his chin on the top of her head, tilted his head slightly, and closed his eyes.
"One last time. Once I complete this mission, I'll resign."
After saying this, he turned around and left without any hesitation.
Looking at his receding figure, Xiao Qian secretly warned herself: Fu Jingqian, you better be sober, always trust your first instinct, and don't waver.
After his figure completely disappeared in the crowd, she slowly turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
Walk into the campus from the pedestrian street and follow the tree-lined avenue surrounding the campus.
She wandered around in circles, bored.
When the sun set, she stopped and took out her cell phone from her bag.
She wanted to call her brother and ask him if he and Xiaoqi had arrived home. Otherwise, if she went back alone, she wouldn't know how to face her sister and future brother-in-law.
When I reached into my bag, my fingertips touched something cold.
She was slightly startled and took it out to look at it.
It’s the necklace that Zuo Chuan gave her!
Xiao Qian looked down at the pure peony flower in her palm and sighed deeply.
"...It disturbs my mind." She murmured and put the necklace into the secret pocket inside her bag.
Then, he took out his cell phone and called his brother.
Fu Jiusi didn't answer and replied: Your sister-in-law and I are in the hospital, so you don't have to wait for us for dinner.
Her heart skipped a beat. Xiaoqi was only seven months old, and it was not time for her to give birth yet. Why did she suddenly go to the hospital?
