"How have you been these past few years? Do you have a boyfriend?"
"No! My mother has been busy finding a boyfriend for me recently. She can't wait to marry me off. What about you?" Kang Yafei stared at Su Shengxuan and asked back.
"I guess so!" Su Shengxuan replied with a smile.
"Really? What does she do?" Kang Yafei felt a little disappointed, but still asked with a smile.
“He’s also a policeman.”
"Really? That's good!" Kang Yafei smiled a little bitterly. She thought that meeting this man again was God giving her a second chance, but she didn't expect that she was still not destined to be with him.
"But I haven't seen her for many years and I want to give her a gift. Can you do me a favor?" Su Shengxuan stopped and asked Kang Yafei.
"What's the matter?"
"Help me choose a gift for her!"
"Okay! Let's wait until after get off work. I'll change into casual clothes."
"I've asked for leave from the captain a long time ago. Let's go. I'll take you back to change clothes first." Su Shengxuan said as he walked to an off-road vehicle next to him, opened the door, and looked back at Kang Yafei: "Get in the car!"
"Is this your car?" Kang Yafei finally understood that he was just bringing her here.
"Well, get in the car." Su Shengxuan smiled, closed the car door for Kang Yafei, then walked around to the other side, opened the door, got in, and quickly started the car.
"Are you very familiar with the captain?" Kang Yafei was really puzzled.
"What's wrong?"
"The team leader granted you leave on your first day at work, and even bought you a gift for your girlfriend!" This seems a bit strange no matter how you think about it.
"He and I are best friends!" Su Shengxuan answered with a smile while looking at the road ahead.
"Yeah?"
The two chatted all the way, mostly about what happened in school. Kang Yafei was a little worried, afraid that he would mention the love letter, but fortunately, Su Shengxuan didn't mention it until they got downstairs of her house, which comforted Kang Yafei a little.
"Get in quickly. I won't go up." The car stopped in front of Kang Yafei's house, but Su Shengxuan had no intention of getting out.
"Okay, then wait for me for a moment, I'll be there soon!" Kang Yafei quickly got out of the car and ran into the unit door.
Kang Yafei changed quickly and came down from upstairs in a short while. This time she wore a pure cotton white tight-fitting bottoming shirt, a pair of cropped jeans, a pair of sports casual shoes, and a high ponytail to cover up the injuries from yesterday. She looked refreshed and full of youthful energy.
"I just realized that you look so beautiful in anything you wear!" Su Shengxuan started the car with a smile.
"Your girlfriend must be very beautiful too, right?" Kang Yafei asked with a smile as he fastened his seat belt.
Su Shengxuan looked at her thoughtfully, then continued looking at the road ahead and replied, "She is as beautiful as you!"
"By the way, you just said that she is also a police officer. Which police station does she work in?" Kang Yafei was curious about Su Shengxuan's girlfriend and really wanted to know what the woman he liked was like.
"It's also in our police station." Su Shengxuan said calmly.
"Ah? Who is she? Do I know her?" She became even more curious after he said that.
"Yes! She's your good friend!"
"Good friend? Let me think..." Kang Yafei racked her brains for a long time, and said with sudden realization: "Oh, it's Jie Xiaolu, right?" She and her have a pretty good relationship in the entire police station, but they can't be considered good friends
Su Shengxuan did not refute, but just looked at her and smiled.
"Oh, it's her! I didn't expect this girl to be so good at keeping secrets! She won't be angry if I come out with you, right?"
"Don't worry! She won't be angry!"
While the two were talking, the car had already arrived at the mall. After parking the car, the two walked in together. The first floor of the mall was basically full of gold, silver and jewelry. Su Shengxuan took Kang Yafei directly to the place where necklaces were sold.
"Do you want to give her a necklace?" Kang Yafei looked at the rings and necklaces shining with golden light on the counter, and her heart, which was longing for love, began to tremble.
"Yes, please help me choose." Su Shengxuan nodded and asked the lady at the counter to take out a few models.
"What kind does she like?" Kang Yafei picked up several necklaces and looked at them carefully.
"I'm not sure either, that's why I asked you to come. Don't worry about the price, I trust your judgment."
"All right."
Kang Yafei finally helped Su Shengxuan choose a simple and elegant necklace. After Su Shengxuan paid, the two walked out of the mall.
"You go back by yourself, I'll go around by myself!" Since her work was done, there was no need for her to accompany him. Besides, his girlfriend was Jie Xiaolu, and she was afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings because of her.
"Let's go, we haven't finished yet." Su Shengxuan took her hand and walked towards his car.
“That… Su… Senior…” I didn’t know how to address him for a moment, so I could only call him by the name I used in the police academy.
"What's wrong?" Su Shengxuan did not stop, but pulled her to the car and opened the door for her.
"Oh, nothing... nothing..." Kang Yafei shook her head awkwardly. She just wanted to tell him not to hold her hand as it would easily cause misunderstandings, but she swallowed the words back.
Su Shengxuan got into the car but did not start it. He just turned his head and looked at Kang Yafei beside him and reiterated: "You guessed wrong just now. My girlfriend is not Jie Xiaolu."
"Ah? Not her?" Kang Yafei was surprised. If it wasn't Jie Xiaolu, then who was it
Su Shengxuan nodded, reached into his pocket and took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Kang Yafei: "Look what this is?"
Kang Yafei looked at the papers in her hand, then looked at Su Shengxuan in confusion, not understanding what he meant. She reached out and gently opened the neatly folded paper, and what came into her eyes was the love letter she had given to Su Shengxuan six years ago. Her face flushed.
"Yes... I'm sorry... I'm leaving first..." This was too embarrassing. Kang Yafei hurriedly took the letter paper and tried to unfasten her seat belt, but Su Shengxuan held her hand down.
"Are you angry?" Su Shengxuan laughed at Kang Yafei's embarrassed expression.
Kang Yafei didn't dare to look up at his eyes, and shook her head and replied: "No! I just remembered that I have something else to do..."
She really didn't expect that he would bring up the past to humiliate her.
In her heart, she felt a little resentful towards him. Even if they were joking, he shouldn't treat her like this, right
Su Shengxuan looked at Kang Yafei and smiled: "Silly, the girlfriend I just mentioned is you!"
Kang Yafei was stunned for a moment. She thought there must be something wrong with her ears. She looked up at Su Shengxuan and asked stupidly, "What did you say?"
Su Shengxuan reached out and gently held Kang Yafei's hand, looking at her and explaining slowly: "When I graduated six years ago, I was sent to be an undercover agent. Because I was a new face, the drug lords didn't know me, so I was the best candidate. I was secretly trained for several months and then went on the mission. When your letter was delivered to me, it was the last day I received the mission. During the two years I was undercover, I kept this letter with me. I told myself that if I could come back alive, I would definitely come to find you! But I didn't expect that when the mission was completed, there would be a new mission, so it has been delayed until now. I know you don't have a boyfriend now, and you're not married. I wonder if it's too late for me to come back to find you now?"
Kang Yafei's mouth twitched as she listened to Su Shengxuan's words. Six years later, she realized that he actually liked her. She wanted to laugh but couldn't help crying. She felt surprised and also felt indescribable grievance.
"Don't cry! Did I say something wrong?" Kang Yafei's tears made Su Shengxuan a little at a loss.
Kang Yafei sniffed, wiped her tears and answered: "I didn't cry... I... I was excited... I didn't know so many things happened to you back then..."
Listening to Kang Yafei's words, Su Shengxuan breathed a sigh of relief. He took a tissue from the dashboard and wiped her tears. Seeing her expression slowly calm down, he smiled and asked slowly, "You haven't answered my question just now?"
"How did you survive?" Kang Yafei was still immersed in his story and didn't hear Su Shengxuan's question at all. When she thought about how he had been fighting in the gang all these years and risking his life to carry out missions, she felt a sense of admiration for him.
Not all police officers can be a successful undercover agent!
But he did it, and he did it for six years! She really couldn't imagine how he survived those days with a knife on his neck.
Su Shengxuan looked at her and smiled: "None of that matters. What matters is that I'm back now, isn't it?"
After six years of perseverance, when he stood in front of her again, he was more excited than she was. She might never have thought that the letter she gave him back then was his biggest motivation in the past six years. Every time he was about to give up, he would take it out and take a look. Sometimes he often thought that if he died under the guns of those gangsters in the next second, she would never know what he was thinking. He even regretted why he didn't tell her when he left? But his job had to be kept secret, he couldn't tell!
But even if she really said it, what would it matter? If he really died, wouldn't she just be waiting for a handful of cold ashes
So, it’s better not to say anything.
"Yeah!" Kang Yafei looked at him and nodded vigorously.
He was right, nothing else mattered, what mattered was that he was back.
Came back safely.
"Six years ago I wanted to tell you something..." Su Shengxuan said as he shook her hand.
"What?" Kang Yafei looked at him without blinking. Although she could feel what he wanted to say to her, she still wanted to hear him say it to her in person.
"I like you!"
Kang Yafei's face flushed again, she pursed her lips and turned her head away nervously. Su Shengxuan's appearance was too sudden, and she was a little overwhelmed for a moment after hearing his confession, not knowing how to respond to him. (To be continued)
