Chapter 69 Red is a cinnabar mark, branded on the heart

After explaining things on WeChat, Shen Zhaoyi started taking a shower, washing her hair, and packing herself and her luggage.

The large cage also has an extra-large food bowl hanging on it, which can feed it for more than a week when full, so there is no need to worry about it going hungry.

Her flight was at 11:00 AM, but she didn't leave home until 9:30 AM.

It only takes 20 minutes to get from Bishuiwan to the airport via the elevated road, but since today is the first day of a holiday, we were stuck in traffic for quite a while.

I almost missed my flight.

Fortunately, I had the financial means to back me up, and I passed through security via a dedicated lane.

While waiting for takeoff, taking advantage of the remaining time, Shen Zhaoyi asked Su Ye:
[I'm going home today. Is there anything else I need to do?]

Su Ye was probably still driving, and only replied with a voice message, "No, I'm just staying at home."

【That's good. 】

After sending this message, Shen Zhaoyi switched her phone to airplane mode.

Su Ye was still asking her what she was going to do today, but he hadn't received a reply yet.

After a two-hour flight, the plane landed at G City International Airport.

There was a waiting time during the layover. While in the lounge, I reconnected to the signal, and message pop-ups kept popping up one after another.

Han Ziyang said he had received the gift and was currently assembling it with his roommate.

[Sister! That's so cool!]

I love it so much!!!

Thank you, sister!

[Sprinkling flowers, sprinkling flowers, sprinkling flowers!!!]

You can tell from the long string of exclamation marks he used that he was genuinely happy; perhaps this is just how a young man expresses himself directly.

Shen Zhaoyi told him not to get excited yet, and to remember to test the performance. If there were any problems, he could contact the store.

No problem, sister.

[I'm a little reluctant to replace this old computer; I've used it for three years...] (Advertisement space available)
After telling him that "out with the old, in with the new," Shen Zhaoyi went to find Su Ye again.

Several unread voice messages.

I sent them one after another after she didn't reply.

Shen Zhaoyi immediately made a video call.

On the other end of the screen, Su Ye had just arrived home, washed her face, and her bangs were still wet.

He recognized the figure at a glance and asked, "Zhaoyi, are you at the airport?"

"Hmm." Shen Zhaoyi held up her boarding pass, glanced at it pretentiously, and then deliberately drawled, "Destination, Tai-po—"

Su Ye's expression froze.

His eyes widened slightly, and his lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

A look of surprise and disbelief flashed across Zhang Jun's face, which eventually turned into a look of helplessness.

When Shen Zhaoyi saw this, she thought, "Oh no."

"No, did I really scare you?"

"No..." Su Ye came back to his senses and subconsciously touched his face.

He didn't ask Shen Zhaoyi why she came, nor what she was going to do after she arrived. Instead, he asked what time her flight would arrive.

"2:50."

"Then remember to have lunch first."

Don't worry, you won't go hungry.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Zhaoyi boarded the plane again.

Outside the porthole, the clouds stretched endlessly.

She leaned back in her seat, tapping the armrest with her fingertips.

It was said that it would take fifty minutes to arrive from the city's international airport, but Shen Zhaoyi felt as if they had only just taken off when the cabin announcement began to remind them to prepare for descent.

It landed almost twenty minutes earlier than expected.

She slowly pushed her suitcase out.

This airport is very small; you can see the whole thing from the moment you get off the plane to the arrival gate.

My gaze swept across the crowd in the distance. It was just an unintentional action, but somehow, a familiar figure bumped into me.

Standing with its back to the light, it stands out conspicuously.

She was much taller than the people around her, wearing a crisp white T-shirt with a light blue shirt over it, and holding a bouquet of red roses in her hands.

A few lilies dotted the scene.

And that face was one that Shen Zhaoyi knew all too well—

Su Ye. He seemed to see himself in it too.

His lips unconsciously curled up, but he quickly pursed them back, as if he were a little nervous.

Finally, he simply raised his hand and waved in this direction.

Shen Zhaoyi hesitated for a moment, then strode over and stopped a step away from him.

Su Ye lowered her head slightly, looking at the person in front of her.

Shen Zhaoyi also looked up.

The surrounding noise seemed to quiet down at that moment.

"Why are you here?" Shen Zhaoyi spoke first, breaking the silence.

Su Ye handed her the roses, her voice trembling slightly, "I've come to pick you up."

After receiving the flowers, he naturally reached out to push the suitcase next to her.

"Let's go, let's get out of here first."

The two walked out side by side.

Shen Zhaoyi wore a wrap dress that matched the one worn on the runway today, the color of which perfectly complemented the roses in her arms. Passing travelers who saw the two of them couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

What a perfect couple!
Upon arriving at the parking lot, Su Ye opened the passenger door first, and only after she got in did he go around to the trunk to put the luggage in.

The car door closed, leaving only the two of them in the cramped space.

Su Ye fastened his seatbelt and turned to ask her, "Have you booked a place to stay?"

Shen Zhaoyi had learned a lot of witty remarks in the live stream, but when she met the person in person, she didn't dare to say a single one.

She dutifully gave the hotel's name, her fingers gripping the edge of the bouquet's wrapping paper.

Su Ye responded and started the car, driving out of the parking lot.

He had lived in this place since childhood and was so familiar with the roads that he didn't need navigation. With the car window half open, the early summer breeze, carrying a faint fragrance of flowers, wafted into his nostrils.

The car was playing touching Cantonese songs, the ones he often sang in the language lab.

The gentle melody flowed into their ears, gradually easing the subtle tension they felt when they first met.

Shen Zhaoyi leaned back in her seat, glancing out of the corner of her eye at the slender fingers gripping the steering wheel, their knuckles distinct, and a faint scar on the web of the thumb.

"Are you tired?" Su Ye suddenly asked, interrupting her thoughts.

"I'm not tired, I slept for a while on the plane."

"So... are you hungry?" He paused. "There's a little shop there that's really good, it's been there for decades."

She once said that when Su Ye came to City C, she would take him to eat at a good restaurant.

Unexpectedly, the roles have now been reversed.

But Shen Zhaoyi had actually listened to advice and had already eaten at the airport.

It's not even three o'clock yet.

Of course I'm not hungry.

In the end, we decided to go back to the hotel to drop off our luggage first, and then go for a walk around the neighborhood.

The car turned onto a tree-lined road, the dappled shadows of the trees falling on the windshield, sometimes bright, sometimes dark.

At this moment, Shen Zhaoyi suddenly felt—

This trip seems to have been pretty good.

Upon arrival, it was advertised as a hotel, but we were misled by the promotional pictures; it was actually just an upgraded and renovated guesthouse.

It's still manageable, though.

After registering downstairs, I took my room key and went upstairs.

Fortunately, the hygiene environment is relatively clean and tidy.

After entering the room, Su Ye first went to the bathroom and then squatted down outside to carefully check the bedside socket and power interface.

Shen Zhaoyi, observing his actions, naturally knew he was looking for a hidden camera.

I just didn't expect him to know even this.

Su Ye explained that a similar incident had occurred at the hotel next to the funeral home last year. He and a few colleagues had mentioned it briefly during a chat and had taken note of it.

I learned this inspection method on the way here.

"I don't know if it will work." He paused, his tone calm, "but it's always better to check it out first."

Shen Zhaoyi was unsure whether to praise his thoughtfulness or condemn those shameless paparazzi who were always taking photos without permission.
