Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

Huo Yichen knew the location of Murong Qiao’s award ceremony. After the other party explained the itinerary yesterday, he asked in detail about the time and place.

At that time, Murong Qiao could not remember some of the details when she was asked. In the end, she simply sent Huo Yichen a copy of the itinerary. The last glimmer of dusk disappeared after the sun left.

Huo Yichen glanced at the time and realized that the award ceremony was not over yet. He slowed down and saw a flower shop by the roadside, so he stopped and walked in.

“Hello, what flowers do you want?” The florist was a young girl with freckles on her face.

When the florist saw Huo Yichen enter her shop, the moment her gaze landed on the other party, she could not take her eyes off him.

The flower shop could not help but encounter all kinds of men, many of whom were beautiful and handsome.

However, this was the first time she had seen a refined handsome man like Huo Yichen. Her heart could not help but beat wildly, and her tone was filled with suppressed panic.

Huo Yichen said bluntly, “A bouquet of white roses will do.”

“Alright.” The florist instinctively agreed.

However, during the wrapping process, the florist looked at Huo Yichen a little distractedly, her hands moving mechanically.

“Um, do you have a girlfriend?”

When the white roses were being wrapped, the florist took the opportunity to ask the other party.

Huo Yichen politely reached out to take the bouquet of flowers, then paid and nodded.

“It’s not for my girlfriend but for my fiancee.” He waved the ring on his ring finger.

At the thought of Murong Qiao, Huo Yichen’s originally cold expression softened.

It was like a glacier in spring, turning into a clear stream. Even the branches covered in snow bloomed with flowers.

Huo Yichen’s reply stunned the florist.

Hearing the other party’s answer, she was first disappointed, then a matter-of-fact expression appeared on her face.

It would be strange if such an outstanding person did not have a girlfriend. Looking at Huo Yichen’s back as he walked out of the shop with the flowers, the florist could not forget how content the other party looked when he mentioned his fiancee.

It was a gentleness that only belonged to one person.

As the night deepened, the stars and moon hung high above their heads, reflecting cold and gentle light.

The street lamps on both sides of the road also began to work, shining guidance at pedestrians at regular intervals.

Seeing that the award ceremony was finally coming to an end, Murong Qiao greeted Xu Xiuzhu and Shi Yang before walking out of the venue.

At this moment, the award ceremony was not really over yet. There was still a large group of reporters outside. Murong Qiao walked towards the underground parking lot and planned to leave. In the end, before she could go down in the elevator, a hand stretched out from the side and grabbed her arm. “Ah—” Murong Qiao was about to shout.

However, when she turned around and saw Huo Yichen suddenly appear in front of her, she swallowed her shout.

She touched her chest to calm herself down. “You scared me. I thought those reporters had come this way.”

The infiltration of the reporters and paparazzi in the entertainment industry could be said to be terrifying. Even though the security at this award ceremony was tight, Murong Qiao did not dare to let her guard down.

“I wanted to pick you up.” Huo Yichen frowned when he saw her thin and exposed shoulders.

“Let’s go. Get in the car first.”

The underground parking lot was cold to begin with. Wearing just a gown Murong Qiao couldn’t help but hold her shoulders and shudder.

Her original thought of going back alone was immediately dispelled after Huo Yichen appeared.

Murong Qiao followed the other party and sat in the warm front passenger seat. Then, she was stuffed with a cup of warm oat milk.

“Drink this first to warm your stomach.” After Huo Yichen stuffed the oatmeal milk into her hand, he took out a thin blanket from somewhere and covered Murong Qiao’s legs.

However, Murong Qiao saw through his movements that there was a bouquet of white roses in the backseat. Even before she reached out to touch it, she could already smell the fragrance emanating from it.

She gestured at the backseat with her free hand. “Why didn’t you give me the flowers first?”

“Who asked a certain someone’s stomach to rumble with hunger? I heard it clearly just now,” Huo Yichen said.

He wanted to do something romantic, but after hearing the faint sound of the other party’s stomach, Huo Yichen guessed that Murong Qiao probably hadn’t eaten dinner tonight.

Unfortunately, he did not bring anything to fill her stomach. There was only one cup in the car. Could the oatmeal milk he had just bought be of any use?

These words made Murong Qiao blush in embarrassment. Then, she pretended to take a sip of the fragrant oat milk in her hand.

While they were chatting, Huo Yichen turned the steering wheel and drove out according to the designated route.

“Why don’t we eat outside tonight?” Murong Qiao suddenly suggested.

Huo Yichen didn’t stop what he was doing. “Why? Do you despise my cooking?” His half-joking tone attracted Murong Qiao’s gentle wave of her hand The force that hit his arm wasn’t painful or itchy. Instead, it sounded like a wheedling.

“Nonsense,” Murong Qiao retorted on the spot.

The food Huo Yichen made was so delicious that she wished she could swallow her tongue. Even though they were eating the same dishes, Murong Qiao always felt that she could eat them repetitively.

However, when she thought about how the other party had inevitably been tired out m the company during this period of time, Murong Qiao’s heart ached.

Huo Yichen naturally knew that she did not mean that. “If you want to eat out, we can. Coincidentally, the restaurant you liked previously also produced new dishes.”

After saying that, he freed one hand to change the navigation and set a new location. At the same time, he sent a message to Ye Zhen and asked him to communicate with the restaurant in advance.

Murong Qiao, who had been busy at the award ceremony just now, took advantage of the fact that she was finally free this time to see if anyone had sent her a message on her phone.

When the cell phone entered the venue, it had to be switched to silent mode. In the end, after it was only taken out now, as soon as it was unlocked and the screen opened, Murong Qiao saw a large number of messages jump out. The number of notifications became 99+.

Among them, Huo Yichen and An Nuo messaged her the most, followed by

Shen Xi, Ruan Ying, and her Big Brothers.

Murong Qiao clicked on them one by one and saw that An Nuo seemed to have mentioned the award ceremony she was going to for the next round.

[If not for the fact that I’m filming, I might have been able to go with you to the award ceremony this time.] The last message from An Nuo was a little regretful.

The two of them couldn’t meet often after moving out on their own, let alone have quality time together.

The two of them, who were busy working, were not much worse than the cowherds and weavers who met once a year.

An Nuo, who was usually busy for two to three months every time she filmed, had a completely different schedule than Murong Qiao, who had to run around from time to time. Thus, An Nuo was not reluctant to part with Murong Qiao after finally getting to meet her two days ago.

Murong Qiao typed a reply: [So you still have a place for me in your heart?] Although the person’s name was not mentioned, if An Nuo saw this message she would know that Murong Qiao was talking about Murong Chen.

Previously, when Murong Qiao met her Big Brother at the door, she had teased An Nuo a few times..
