The weekend arrived in the blink of an eye, and the two agreed to meet in Q City.
Yun got up very early that day and took the earliest high-speed train to Q City. As soon as she stepped off the platform, she found him standing there waiting for her. He was 1.8 meters tall, and although he wasn't particularly handsome, his strong temperament and upright posture made him quite conspicuous in the crowd.
She casually took Yunqi's bag, even though the two weren't together in this life. But in their past life, when they were dating, they were like a weekend couple, running back and forth between their homes.
"Come on, I'll take you home first."
Si Cheng owns a house in Q city. His situation is rather unique; his parents divorced when he was very young, and he lived with his father. For the first two years after the divorce, his father treated him quite well. However, with the establishment of a new family and the addition of new members, his father's attention was only focused on his newborn siblings. When it was time for him to start school, he enrolled in boarding schools, only returning home once a semester. Even when he did return, he was treated like a stranger—polite but not affectionate, though he wasn't abused.
When he turned 18 and was able to be independent, his father, as if throwing away a package, told him, "After you become an adult, you're on your own."
So they bought him an apartment near the university and paid for his tuition for four years, and then rarely contacted him. He lived in that apartment for four years, then joined the army, and never heard from him again. I only heard from relatives that his whole family had immigrated abroad, but they hadn't even informed him of the immigration.
His mother has been out of contact since the divorce. There's only news that she remarried, but no one knows where she married or even where she married. She hasn't been in contact with her family since.
Fortunately, his uncle still loved him quite a bit and would call him every few days to invite him to stay for a while, but Si Cheng didn't want to trouble his uncle too much, so he only went once in a long while.
After working for a few years, I was promoted to branch manager because of my outstanding business skills, and I also bought a house here and settled down.
The apartment is a fully furnished three-bedroom unit, and we've only been living here for a short time, so everything is still quite simple.
Including his previous life, this wasn't his first time here. As soon as Yun Qi entered, he changed his shoes and went inside, seemingly familiar with the place.
"It's still not as comfortable as before."
Before the apocalypse, the two of them were planning to get married, and Yunqi had redecorated the house. Now, it seems like everything has gone back to square one.
"If you like, you can rearrange it again."
"Forget it, what difference would it make if we rearranged it again?" Yun Qi said dejectedly.
Si Cheng patted her back to comfort her.
"Let's go, treat me to a seafood feast, I've been wanting to go for ages," Yun Qi said coquettishly.
Because the company here is located near the port, and next to the port is a small fishing harbor, many fishing boats come and go every day, bringing back all kinds of fresh and delicious seafood. The seafood here is also relatively affordable, and you can even buy it yourself and have it cooked. Every time Yunqi comes here, the first thing she does is go out to eat seafood. Although there is seafood near her workplace, it is quite far from the port, and there are several middlemen involved, so it's not really that affordable.
"Yes, my princess. You still have such a sweet tooth." He tapped her nose and said affectionately.
The two went to a food stall at the port. It wasn't lunchtime yet, and there weren't many people eating. They chose a seat by the window.
