"Knock, knock, knock!" There was a sudden knock on the car window. Fu Yichen gasped and suddenly raised his head from the steering wheel. His thoughts came to an abrupt end.
His forehead and face were covered with cold sweat.
After a while, he adjusted his breathing and slowly lowered the car window.
Standing outside the door was the community security guard.
"Sir, you can't park for a long time on the roads in the community. If you live there, please park your car in the garage. It's a nice car, and it's not worth it if it gets scratched later."
"I'm leaving now." Coming back to his senses, he started the car, his eyes lingering on the window with the light flashing again, his expression lonely. Then, he broke into the endless darkness again.
Xia Xingchen had just gotten into the car and hadn't closed the door when she saw the car flash by. She just glanced at it casually, and the person in the driver's seat was not very clear, only a blurry profile.
Is it Dr. Fu? Why is he here so late? Is it my illusion
She shook her head, didn't think about it anymore, and closed the car door. The driver drove the car directly to the agreed place.
Finally, the car stopped in front of a building. Xia Xingchen was led to the roof.
There is a garden-style revolving restaurant on the roof.
As soon as she entered, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips. It seemed that he was looking for her for this romantic dinner.
"Ms. Xia, please give me your coat. I'll help you put it away." The waiter followed behind her and served her.
Xia Xingchen took off his coat, handed it to the other party, and subconsciously looked around.
At this point, there were quite a few people in the restaurant.
Everyone is well-dressed, elegant and noble. Anyone who can dine here must be rich or noble.
The melodious piano music lingers in the restaurant, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Her mood suddenly became much better. The haze that had been lingering over her because of Wei Yang's matter also dissipated.
Having just finished eating an affordable hotpot, she now came to this luxurious place, switching states with ease.
The waiter led her to stop in front of the transparent flower house.
"Mr. President is inside and has been waiting for you for more than an hour." The waiter gestured with a smile.
She paused.
For a long time, he just stood there, looking at the man in the greenhouse through the transparent glass.
He sat there alone, the dazzling light shining down from above, casting a shining golden halo around him.
He was casually wearing the sweater she gave him. It was of a very ordinary price, but it was so eye-catching on him that one could not take his eyes away from it after just one glance.
Not only was she looking at him, but other people around him couldn't help but look at him.
Everyone seemed to recognize him and whispered excitedly.
Xia Xingchen smiled sweetly, opened the door, and slowly walked into the greenhouse.
He was always alert and heard the noise immediately. He turned his head slightly to look at her, and when their eyes met, there was a little more tenderness in each other's eyes.
"Mr. Bai." Xia Xingchen greeted him with a smile and walked towards him in her high heels.
She was wearing an elegant lady's dress today, which was very elegant and suitable for the environment tonight. With a faint smile and sparkling eyes, she looked even more charming.
Bai Yeqing's eyes darkened as he stared at her, "Mrs. Bai, you are 10 minutes late."
"Mr. Bai, it's really a disservice to say such things at this time and in this situation." A waiter had already pulled out a chair for her. She smiled and sat down opposite him. "If a woman is late for less than an hour, it can be ignored."
"Thank you for your advice." This time he was unusually patient and didn't look unhappy at all.
Instead of asking the waiter to pour the wine, he did it himself.
Xia Xingchen looked at the red liquid pouring out of the bottle, then looked at him.
"Is there something happy?" she asked, "This is the first time you ask me out for dinner."
They have known each other for so long and have been together for so long, but this is the first time they have been on such a formal date.
Xia Xingchen used to envy those ordinary couples, but she didn’t expect that they could do it too.
"After you resign, we can meet often." Bai Yeqing replied, then lost his concentration again, and nodded politely to the crowd outside through the glass room. He was gentlemanly and elegant.
Xia Xingchen subconsciously turned around to look. She saw more and more people watching them from outside. Some even left their tables and chairs and approached their greenhouse, taking pictures with their phones.
She was embarrassed.
There is a feeling of embarrassment as if being locked in a cage and being watched by people.
"Don't feel uncomfortable. Ignore them and just look at me." Obviously seeing through her thoughts, he comforted her and pushed a glass of red wine in front of her.
"Yeah." She took a sip of the red wine and looked up at him, "You haven't had dinner yet?"
"waiting for you."
"I told you I want it at 8 o'clock. Besides, I've already had dinner." It was so late, Xia Xingchen was worried that he was hungry and his stomach was upset. She looked at him with some resentment, turned around and told the waiter to prepare the meal.
Soon, the waiter brought the meal.
Afraid that he would be bored eating alone, she also ate a few bites.
The candlelight flickered. Xia Xingchen whispered to him softly, talking about the wedding dress she tried today. After a long while, she put down her knife and fork and looked at him, "I'm full, you eat more."
"I'm too hungry. Actually, I can't eat too much." He wiped his lips gracefully.
Xia Xingchen felt distressed when she heard this. "I have something to do tonight. You should eat something to fill your stomach first."
"I'm looking for you today because there's something very important." Bai Yeqing suddenly straightened his face, picked up the wine glass with his long fingers, and took a sip.
"Hmm?" She was a little surprised. She looked up at his expression and straightened her body, feeling a little tense in her heart.
Just when he was about to say something, he heard applause and cheers from outside.
The sound penetrated the greenhouse and reached the ears of the two people.
They both looked in the direction of the voice out of curiosity. They saw a couple surrounded by a crowd in the middle of the restaurant. The boy knelt on one knee, holding a large bouquet of roses and a ring, proposing to the girl.
The girl was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes.
The boy said passionately, "Wife, marry me! I promise that I will love you forever! From now on, if you point east, I will never go west! I will make money to support the family, and you will be responsible for being beautiful! My money is yours, and your money is still yours! Please marry me!"
The boy spoke one sentence after another like pouring beans, skillfully and naturally.
The girl was so happy that she kept wiping her tears.
Suddenly, everyone applauded excitedly, "Marry him! Marry him!"
Xia Xingchen was infected by this atmosphere. She had forgotten what Bai Yeqing was about to say. She stood up and was about to walk out.
