"You, came back early?" Pei Shuo looked at Chen Yao with a slightly deep gaze, and the emotions hidden in his eyes naturally revealed themselves, which were surprise and missing her.
They had only not seen each other for a few days, but it felt like a long time.
"Well, I finished the recording work early and rushed back. I came to see you as soon as I got off the plane." Chen Yao said with a smile.
Pei Shuo couldn't help but feel moved. He couldn't help but take a step forward, took her hand and pulled her into his arms. He said in a somewhat unstable tone, "Why didn't you tell me in advance? I'll drive to the airport to pick you up."
Chen Yao pinched his fingers lightly and said with a smile: "Because I want to give you a surprise, and I like your reaction now. It always feels different from your usual self."
Pei Shuo was stunned. Is it so obvious?
The cell phone in his pocket buzzed. Pei Shuo picked it up and took a look, then he remembered his appointment with Zhou Xiuran today.
"Let me take a call." Pei Shuo first touched Chen Yao's head, and then answered Zhou Xiuran's call.
"What? Have you arrived yet?" he asked.
Zhou Xiuran on the other end of the phone laughed out loud, "No, I'm still stuck in traffic. It's almost rush hour, so I wanted to tell you that I'll be there later."
Pei Shuo: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry. Oh, by the way, I'll bring someone with me later."
Zhou Xiuran was stunned. He turned down the music in the car before asking, "Bring someone? Who are you going to bring?"
Pei Shuo: "My girlfriend."
Zhou Xiuran: ...
He said helplessly: "Pei Shuo, you really are... I don't know what to say to you..."
Pei Shuo: "She just got off the plane and hasn't eaten yet. So, I'll take her there first. If you get stuck in traffic, it doesn't matter if we're late."
Zhou Xiuran fell silent again.
Pei Shuo held the phone further away and asked Chen Yao in a low voice, "Are you hungry? I'll hang up after talking to your uncle for a few more words, and then I'll take you to eat."
Chen Yao: "It's okay, I'll wait for you to finish."
Pei Shuo nodded and said to Zhou Xiuran on the phone, "I'll take her there first. After dinner, I'll send her home, and then we'll go somewhere else to continue our conversation."
Zhou Xiuran: "Yeah, yeah, got it."
…
On the way to the restaurant, Pei Shuo and Shen Yao explained, "Your uncle wants to talk to me about something, and it just so happens that the appointment was made today."
Chen Yao: "That's quite a coincidence, we just ran into each other. But if you have something to do, you don't have to worry about me. I can go have a meal and then let Xiaoyin pick me up."
Pei Shuo: "It's okay, let's have a meal together. Your uncle hasn't seen you for a while."
Then he took a candy from the storage area in the car, peeled it, and fed it to Chen Yao's mouth, saying: "Eat a candy first, and I will take you to eat delicious food later."
Chen Yao smiled and put the candy into her mouth. After taking a few bites, she complained to Pei Shuo, "Speaking of which, the conditions in the place where we recorded the variety show were really tough. Whether it was eating or living, it was all pretty hard. Especially the food. It had no taste in my mouth, let alone in my stomach. I felt like I hadn't eaten anything delicious in a long time."
Pei Shuo patted her head and said softly, "No wonder you look thinner than before. You should eat some more now that you're back."
Chen Yao smiled and hummed, then said, "Let's go, drive. The road shouldn't be too congested now, right?"
Pei Shuo still had his hand on her head and asked irrelevantly, "Is the candy sweet?"
Chen Yao swallowed the sweet saliva in her mouth and replied vaguely: "It's quite sweet."
Pei Shuo looked at her with burning eyes. In the enclosed space of the car, a sweet scent diffused in the air.
Unknowingly, the distance between the two people is gradually narrowing.
