Chapter 54: Is separation for just one day also considered as happiness after a long separation?
On the day Zhou Cheng left, Su Qingyan still didn't make it to go with him. She sent him off at the airport feeling aggrieved, and then, ignoring other people's gazes, put her arms around Zhou Cheng's neck and kissed him.
"Zhou Cheng, I can leave tomorrow. I didn't break my promise. You wait for me for a day." Su Qingyan said pitifully to Zhou Cheng.
"We were in meetings for the past three days. It's okay. Okay, okay, let go. Be good. Look, Director Li's face has turned green." Zhou Cheng patted Su Qingyan's back to comfort him.
"Okay, wait for me." Su Qingyan obediently took a step back and let go of him.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Cheng felt distressed again. Before the plane took off, he sent a message to He Zhu, asking him to make sure Su Qingyan ate well, only drank one cup of coffee a day, and took medicine on time.
He Zhu was waiting for Su Qingyan to come out in the car. When he saw the message sent by Zhou Cheng, he felt that the young boss was not just a boyfriend, but was closer to him than his biological father. If someone didn't know, they would think they would be separated for a long time, but in fact it was only just one day.
After more than ten hours, the plane finally landed in Los Angeles. After landing, they were taken to the hotel by the organizer's airport reception staff. Zhou Cheng felt something was wrong when he walked into the room. How could he, a small follower accompanying the boss, live in such a high-end suite?
-I'm here, are you asleep?
Zhou Cheng sent a message to Su Qingyan, and then took a short video of the room.
It was already past 2 a.m. in Mincheng. Su Qingyan slept uneasily, waiting for information about Zhou Cheng's landing. He woke up after the message alert sounded, and then clicked on the video call in a daze.
"Did I wake you up?" Zhou Cheng saw Su Qingyan squinting his eyes. The background was very dark, with only the night light on.
"I miss you." Su Qingyan tapped Zhou Cheng's lips on the screen.
"What time will you arrive tomorrow?" Zhou Cheng went to the bathroom with his cell phone to prepare for a shower.
"Don't you miss me?" Su Qingyan stared at Zhou Cheng taking off his clothes.
"Of course I do." After taking off his clothes, Zhou Cheng turned around and looked at his mobile phone. Su Qingyan's eyes on the screen were very straightforward.
"Zhou Cheng, otherwise we--" Su Qingyan's eyes were shining.
"No, go to bed." Zhou Cheng put his phone on the sink.
"If you can't do it, then you can't do it. Let me see, you can't do it?" Su Qingyan curled her lips.
"Go to bed quickly, it's already so late." Zhou Cheng didn't listen to him, turned on the shower and started taking a shower.
The first day's meeting ended smoothly. Several doctors from China planned to have a small gathering first. Zhou Cheng was very resistant to this occasion, but seeing Director Li's threatening eyes, he still went ahead and attended.
Everyone was curious about the young doctor Director Li had brought with him, wondering what extraordinary skills he had to attend such an international conference. Zhou Cheng said little throughout the entire meeting, only joining in conversation when professional topics were discussed. His calmness made others wonder if he was the son of some industry giant, seeking gilding his reputation.
After the dinner, they returned to the hotel together. As soon as they entered the hotel lobby, Zhou Cheng saw Su Qingyan sitting on the sofa, talking on the phone and reading a notebook. Su Qingyan also noticed Zhou Cheng very keenly and raised her hand to signal him to wait for her.
"Old Li, isn't that the Su family's child?"
Professor Zhao, who was traveling with us, had treated Su Qingyan when he was hospitalized and had some impression of him.
"Yes, that's right." Director Li's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't even glance at Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng was in a dilemma. He had originally wanted to move on quietly, but now Su Qingyan had become the focus. Seeing Zhou Cheng hesitate, Su Qingyan put down the phone and walked over.
"What a coincidence, Xiao Su, meeting you here." Professor Zhao spoke first and extended his hand to Su Qingyan.
"I'm waiting for my man--" Su Qingyan smiled and shook hands with Zhao Tingan. She had just said half of her words when she saw Zhou Cheng frowning and shaking his head, then he shut up tactfully.
"You also know Xiao Zhou and Xiao Su, right?" Zhao Ting'an turned around and glanced at Zhou Cheng.
"Yes, I know him." Zhou Cheng said vaguely.
"Zhou Cheng is my good friend. Professors, please take care of him in the future." Su Qingyan immediately began to build a closer relationship.
"Xiao Zhou is Lao Li's favorite disciple. They work very well together during the surgery at the hospital."
Zhou Cheng nodded and smiled perfunctorily. When he glanced at Su Qingyan out of the corner of his eye, it seemed that his tail had turned into a propeller.
After a brief greeting, Zhou Cheng followed Su Qingyan and left them.
"How long have you been waiting? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Zhou Cheng helped him carry his computer and backpack.
"It's a good time to deal with some things. I'm not in a hurry." Su Qingyan pushed Zhou Cheng's back and walked forward.
"I see you're quite anxious." Zhou Cheng turned around and smiled helplessly at Su Qingyan.
"The speech will be tomorrow afternoon, right?" After entering the elevator, Su Qingyan hung on Zhou Cheng.
"It's in the afternoon." Zhou Cheng turned around and carried Su Qingyan in front of him. "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
"A short separation is like a new marriage. What do you think I'm thinking?" Su Qingyan began to untie Zhou Cheng's tie. "I brought a suit with me. I'm going to wear it on stage tomorrow. I'm sure to charm those old men."
"What's the point of me being obsessed with them?" Zhou Cheng grabbed Su Qingyan's wrist, "Don't lie to me, what's wrong? You don't look happy."
"Why don't you let me tell them about our relationship?"
Su Qingyan was indeed a little unhappy. It was not shameful for them to be in love, so why did Zhou Cheng care about others knowing? So she just asked directly.
"These old men are all old-fashioned. If you scare them again, be good. If you don't behave, I will tie you up."
"Hurry up, tie it now." Su Qingyan took out Zhou Cheng's tie and wrapped it around his wrist.
Zhou Cheng has always been an introverted person and usually doesn't show his inner world to others. It's not that he is afraid of others knowing that he is in love with Su Qingyan, but he thinks there is no need to tell others about this matter. Although the emperor is far away now and his family will not know about it no matter how much trouble he makes, if Su Qingyan continues to be so ostentatious, this matter will sooner or later reach his parents' ears.
