Everything was a coincidence and luckily. Zheng Hongwen happened to be free on the day Dong You mentioned, so they happily decided on it.
The winter trip was specially arranged on a weekend afternoon, the day before Zheng Hongwen was about to go abroad.
She squeezed all her work into the morning and didn't finish it until 3:30, without even having lunch. Her stomach growled as she excitedly drove home.
After returning home exhausted, Chen Qianan sat on the sofa and watched TV.
This scene was very heartwarming, and Dong You's heart softened, all the fatigue of the day was swept away.
Hearing the sound from the entrance, Chen Qi'an looked over and saw that it was Dong You. He immediately walked over to her side, helped her carry her commuter bag, and said, "You're back so early today."
Dong You smiled and said, "After all, I have an important event in the afternoon, so I need to spend some time preparing."
"..." Chen Qi'an didn't immediately realize what Dongyou's "important event" was. For a moment, he felt a little sad, thinking that Dongyou was busy with work and would miss her date with her friends. Fortunately, he was quick-witted and realized that the "important event" Dongyou was talking about was having dinner with him and Zheng Hongwen. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come home so early.
Chen Qian'an followed Dong You into the bedroom like a little tail, put his bag on the table in the bedroom, and watched without blinking as Dong You took off her coat, took out a set of clothes from the closet that he had never seen her wear, and walked into the bathroom.
"You want to take a shower?" Chen Qi'an didn't understand. "Why?"
Dong You spread his arms and shook them, frowning and saying in disgust, "I'm very dirty."
Immediately afterwards, Dongyou heard the rumbling sound from his stomach.
Now Chen Qi'an didn't have time to care whether she wanted to take a shower or not. His expression instantly became serious: "Didn't you eat lunch?"
Dong Youkong touched her nose with her hand and wanted to lie, but her stomach had already betrayed her, so she could only say weakly, "I'm too busy... I don't have time..."
Chen Qi'an looked at her disapprovingly, walked up to her, took the clothes in her hands, and said, "Don't take a shower on an empty stomach. Go eat something first."
"No..." Dong You opened his mouth to refuse, but just as he opened his mouth, he caught a glimpse of Chen Qi'an's increasingly stern expression. He couldn't help but smile, thinking it was quite cute. Thinking that Chen Qi'an rarely acted so forcefully, and that there was no rush anyway, he compromised and nodded, saying, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."
Under Chen Qi'an's gaze, Dong You ate a few pieces of bread. Chen Qi'an still felt that it was not enough and wanted to give her some ham, but Dong You refused, saying that she would not be able to eat the delicious meal for a while, so he gave up.
After eating and drinking, Dong You was allowed to go by Chen Qian'an and finally took a bath.
At half past five after taking a shower, Dong You walked to his dressing table and started to dress up carefully.
Chen Qi'an, who was watching TV downstairs, felt that Dong You had been taking a bath for almost an hour, and something was wrong. Worried that she might have an accident, he ran upstairs.
As soon as the bedroom door is opened.
Dong You was wearing a bright red long dress and sitting in front of a large dressing table with a Western European style, carefully applying lipstick.
This was the final step in her look.
Chen Qian'an was stunned.
Dong You, who was in the house, heard the sound, turned his head to look at the door, and smiled at Chen Qian'an.
Chen Qi'an heard his heartbeat quickening.
Dong You rarely wore such an outfit. Even when she was a girl, she rarely wore such bright colors. He couldn't take his eyes off her.
The person sitting down stood up, stood in front of him, pulled at the hem of his skirt and asked him, "Does it look good, Xiao An?"
Chen Qi'an clenched his hands and nodded blankly: "Very beautiful."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Dong You turned around, fixed his hair in front of the mirror, and said to Chen Qi'an, "We're ready to go. Are you ready?"
Chen Qi'an had originally planned to wear just casual clothes; Zheng Hongwen wasn't a stranger, after all. But Dong You was so beautifully dressed, wouldn't it be awkward for him to be dressed too casually beside her?
Gritting his teeth, Chen Qianan put on the more formal suit in the closet.
Fortunately, they look good together in the mirror.
But the consequence of wearing it this way is...
Zheng Hongwen stood in front of them in a casual T-shirt, staring at the beautiful couple in amazement. He couldn't help but jeer at Chen Qi'an: "No - do you have to dress so formally?!"
Sounds a bit broken.
Dongyou touched his nose awkwardly, wondering if he had used too much force.
Chen Qi'an, standing by, was also embarrassed, but not because of his attire. Instead, he was worried about Zheng Hongwen's startled expression, as he was worried that he would leave a bad impression on the winter tour group.
He wasn't very good at laughing things off, so he just skipped the topic and said, "Let's go in first..."
So the three of them entered the reserved private room.
Zheng Hongwen was in such a high-end place for the first time, and he couldn't help but look around. After sitting down, he couldn't help but sigh: "It smells like money."
Although he knew Chen Qi'an was wealthy, he had never truly felt it, only knowing him as a true young master. Now he had a feeling. He probably wouldn't be able to visit a place like this many times in his lifetime. Partly because it was expensive, and partly because he couldn't bear to spend the money. But Chen Qi'an was accustomed to such places.
Zheng Hongwen smacked his lips and sincerely thanked Chen Qian'an for showing him the world.
Thinking about it, he said boldly: "I can brag about it from now on, hahahahahahaha!"
His appearance felt very familiar to Dong You... In less than half a minute, she knew where this familiarity came from.
She also has a very similar friend - Li Han'e.
They must have a lot in common, Dongyou thought.
After the meal, Dongyou had already figured out how the two friends got along.
Before, she was wondering why Chen Qian'an spoke so little after growing up. How did he get along with his friends?
Now she understood—
It all depends on how much this friend talks.
To be fair, Chen Qi'an is a good listener.
However, his friend has a high emotional intelligence and he would not forget to talk about winter travel during the conversation. Even after many twists and turns, the topic of winter travel was also very engaging.
In short, it is very comfortable to chat with him. You won’t feel at a loss, nor will the conversation be awkward.
The meal was mostly spent chatting, and it lasted almost two and a half hours. When they left the restaurant, it was already dark outside.
The three of them stood in the corridor next to the restaurant. Dong You asked Zheng Hongwen, "How are you leaving?"
Zheng Hongwen waved his hand and said, "Well, my dad will drive over to pick me up later, I'll just wait for him here.
Dong You was slightly surprised, but he didn't show it on his face. He nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Chen Qi'an asked, "Don't you have a driver's license?"
This raises another question: Why don’t you drive yourself?
Zheng Hongwen had been his friend for several years and naturally understood his problem. He said, "I haven't driven in a long time. My hands are not used to it. I don't dare to drive."
"Oh." Chen Qian said.
Dong You couldn't let the atmosphere cool down, thinking in his mind, he said to Chen Qi'an, "Xiao An, you go to the parking lot to get the car first, I'll chat with Zheng Hongwen here, okay?"
Chen Qian'an thought about it for a moment, perhaps they hit it off at first sight, and nodded in agreement.
After Chen Qi'an walked away, the shrewd Zheng Hongwen saw Dong You's intentions and narrowed his eyes with a bit of vigilance. He asked, "Did you deliberately send Qi'an away? What do you want to do?"
Dong You's eyebrows jumped. How could this be a misunderstanding? She said quickly, "Yes. I have some questions for you."
Zheng Hongwen's smile faded, his guard still on. He asked, "What?"
"Xiao An..." Dong You chose his words carefully, "Did something happen in college?"
Zheng Hongwen looked at her, his eyebrows raised. He hadn't expected that this was what she wanted to ask. He felt relieved, but he didn't tell her everything. "I can only tell you yes, but I won't tell you the details without Qi'an's consent."
After saying this, he observed Dongyou's reaction. After all, he was still a top student. If he couldn't see Dongyou's dragon-like temperament after a meal, then he would have lived in vain.
Zheng Hongwen guessed that Chen Qi'an's wife should be a very capable leader, so he couldn't guarantee whether his words would make her unhappy.
But even if the other party was unhappy, he would not tell her. Since Chen Qi'an didn't tell her, it meant that Chen Qi'an didn't want to say it. He believed that this was Chen Qi'an's privacy. If Dongyou wanted to know, he should let Chen Qi'an speak for himself.
Unexpectedly, although Dong You frowned, her tone didn't contain any anger. She smiled bitterly and said, "I only came to ask you because I didn't dare to ask him."
"Don't dare to ask?" Zheng Hongwen looked at her in surprise.
She said, "I'm afraid it will make him sad."
Zheng Hongwen shook his head and said, "You underestimate Qi'an. He won't care too much about things that have already happened. He only cares about things that may happen."
Dong You was stunned and smiled bitterly in his heart.
Yes... She has always regarded Chen Qian'an as the child he was in his childhood. Even though he has grown tall and strong, she still thinks of him as a fragile doll in her heart.
But he has grown up.
Dongyou smiled and said, "That's right."
Zheng Hongwen said, "So I suggest you ask him yourself."
A ray of light blew over.
Chen Qi'an had already taken the car from the garage and drove up to the two of them.
Dong You said goodbye to Zheng Hongwen, opened the passenger door and got in. Chen Qi'an waved at Zheng Hongwen through the passenger window and said with a hint of joy on his face, "We're leaving first—we'll meet again during your summer vacation!"
Zheng Hongwen stopped them: "Wait!"
Dongyou's heart tightened, thinking, would he tell Xiaoan?
Unexpectedly, Zheng Hongwen took out an exquisite box from his bag, walked to the passenger window, put something in, and wanted to hand it to Chen Qi'an personally. He said, "Your birthday is coming soon. I will go abroad by then, so I will give you the gift first."
The two people in the car were stunned for a moment. Chen Qi'an felt a warm current in his heart and solemnly accepted the gift. "Thank you."
Dong You cursed inwardly: Damn it! He sent the gift so early, what if Xiao An thinks I forgot his birthday?
Zheng Hongwen didn't think too much about it. After Chen Qi'an accepted the gift, he took a few steps back, waved goodbye, and said, "Okay, I've given the things away. Let's go! Parking is not allowed here!"
It was half past eight when they got home. Dongyou urged Chen Qian'an to take a shower, intending to implement the strategy he had thought of along the way.
Chen Qian'an was immersed in joy and didn't react to Dong You's inappropriate eagerness. He took his pajamas with a smile and went into the bathroom.
