Five years after my wife's death, she came back!

The two entered the hall, and Shang Yu asked her, "Did you bring any clothes?"

"What clothes?"

"How can you know how to design each area if you don't try playing a few rounds yourself?" Shang Yu stopped in his tracks. "Didn't you bring your playing clothes?"

Shi Ying pursed her lips and shook her head.

Shang Yu shrugged: "Never mind, I'll find you one."

He walked over and called a staff member. He didn't know what he said, but a few minutes later, the staff member handed him a bag.

Shang Yu tossed the bag into Shi Ying's arms and gestured with his chin toward the changing room: "Go change."

"Thanks."

Shi Ying hurriedly went into the dressing room, but after changing her clothes, she felt uncomfortable standing in front of the mirror.

This skirt is way too short.

Although it was a skirt and pants, and wouldn't expose her, the thought of going out like that made her feel incredibly awkward.

Glancing at the time, Shi Ying knew she couldn't delay any longer. She tugged at the hem of her skirt, casually tied her hair up, and went out.

Shang Yu leaned against a pillar in the hall and waited. When she approached, a flash of amazement crossed his eyes.

The clothes were form-fitting, outlining the girl's slender curves. She had tied her hair up, which made her neck appear even longer, and her skin shone brightly in the sunlight.

"Shall we go?" Shi Ying tugged at her skirt again.

Shang Yu coughed lightly twice, pressing his fist to his lips, then turned and walked outside: "Let's go."

Stepping out of the lobby, staff were already waiting outside. There were a few people scattered on the vast green lawn, but because the stadium was not yet officially in use, it was not open to the public and only received a few customers.

The two boarded the sightseeing bus, with staff and instructors sitting in the front, occasionally explaining some precautions.

Shi Ying listened attentively and took notes in her phone's memo app.

The stadium was very large, and after circling it, the staff put them in the VIP area so they could experience it.

Shi Ying doesn't play ball, so she sat in the rest area, wrapped in her coat, eating fruit.

Shang Yu talked to the coach for a while, and then tried out the clubs himself.

He was clearly very skilled; he put several balls into the hole.

"Why don't you give it a try?" Shang Yu turned around, looked at the person huddled in the corner eating, and raised the golf club in his hand.

Shi Ying put down the fruit and walked over: "Do we still need to play ball for a field trip?"

Shang Yu smiled: "You don't need to play golf, but golf is a social sport. Those staff members and coaches have been here for a long time, and you can get a lot of information from above by talking to them."

Shi Ying said "Oh," and asked, "Should I find a coach to teach me?"

Shang Yu raised an eyebrow, and Shi Ying seemed to read mockery in his eyes. She pouted.

"Forget about you, do you even know what to talk to him about?"

"I don't know." Shi Ying was frustrated. In the real world, she had just graduated and still felt like a student, not understanding anything about social etiquette.

Shang Yu is actually a year younger than her. He usually seems carefree and irresponsible, but I didn't expect him to be so reliable when it comes to serious matters.

"What are you saying about me?" Shang Yu bent down to look at her.

"No?" Shi Ying pretended to be clueless.

Looking at her adorable expression, Shang Yu felt an itch in his hands and couldn't resist ruffling her head.

"Hey!" Shi Ying dodged him. "You're so disrespectful! I'm older than you..."

"Really?" Shang Yu's lips curved into a smile. "Then I have to call you...sister?"

Suddenly, a "ding-dong" sound rang in her mind, and Shi Ying's eyes widened instantly. This was the notification sound indicating the favorability of the task target.

To avoid disrupting players' immersive experience of completing tasks, the favorability rating of task targets will only be displayed after reaching the minimum threshold.

Right now, Shang Yu's favorability towards her has reached 60%.

"Don't just stand there, come here, I'll teach you." Shang Yu picked up the golf club and looked at her. Seeing that she was still standing there, he grabbed her arm and brought her over.

The mission was showing initial success, and Shi Ying did not resist playing ball with him. She let him hold her hand from behind and lead her to play the first ball.

Shang Chenyan was not at the company all day.

Shi Ying moved out of his office. Whenever he was in the company, he couldn't help but want to drag her in and keep her by his side forever.

But the last time he got drunk, she was so scared that she was about to move out. If he messes around again, there might be a resignation letter on her desk tomorrow.

Shang Chenyan was very annoyed, so he decided to go out and meet with a few clients.

In the afternoon, I made contact with several government leaders and we came together at Lushan Golf Course to discuss the bidding process.

"Mr. Shang, this is the VIP area. It's still under construction, but the security measures here will be very thorough once it's completed," the stadium manager said enthusiastically as he followed behind the group.

Jiang Wen exchanged pleasantries with him: "Manager Zhang has considered everything very thoroughly."

"No, no, look at the lawn outside, it's monitored in real time by dedicated personnel..."

Shang Chenyan didn't seem to be in a good mood. Following the manager's words, he casually glanced at the lawn outside.

The next instant, his gaze suddenly turned cold.

Two familiar figures stood on the lawn not far away. The girl was wearing a tight top and a short skirt, holding golf clubs in both hands, and leaning slightly forward.

The man stood behind her, his hands sometimes on her waist, sometimes supporting her arm, as if teaching her how to play ball.

As the ball went into the hole, the girl turned around and smiled at the man.

That smile, in an instant, brought back all the memories.

Autumn of my sophomore year at Jiangcheng University.

Shang Chenyan has been troubled lately. Shi Ying has been pursuing him relentlessly for a year, and he can clearly feel his heart fluttering.

But he didn't dare accept her.

He was used to living in darkness and dared not let the sunlight into his life.

Just as the ginkgo leaves were turning yellow, Shang Chenyan passed by the playground and spotted a familiar figure in the distance.

That was the time of the pillars.

There was also an annoying boy next to her, teaching her how to shoot a basketball.

Shang Chenyan stood there, watching the subtle physical contact between the two of them, and seeing the same smile she gave to others, he felt as if his heart had been gripped tightly.

His hands, hanging by his sides, slowly clenched, as some thoughts he couldn't show to others churned in his chest.

If he lives in darkness, then she should fall into it with him.

Before his mind could even process it, Shang Chenyan had already moved.

He ran into the basketball court and, to Shi Ying's astonishment, dragged her away.

The sun was shining brightly that day. During class time, there were only a few people on Ginkgo Avenue. Shang Chenyan held Shi Ying's arm and pinned her against a ginkgo tree.

The boy lowered his head, his bent back forming a beautiful curve.

A gentle breeze ruffled the wisps of hair on his forehead, revealing his beautiful obsidian eyes.

And those eyes, at this moment, only reflected the girl's image.

"What...what are you doing?"

Shang Chenyan took a deep breath: "Don't you like me anymore?"

Shi Ying's beautiful almond-shaped eyes curved slightly, and she tilted her head: "Didn't you say you wouldn't agree?"

"I..." Shang Chenyan's Adam's apple bobbed, "I promise..."

"Promise what?" Shi Ying teased him deliberately.

"If I agree to be your boyfriend, then... could you please not hang out with other guys? If you want to learn how to shoot hoops, I can teach you..."

Shang Chenyan's voice was very serious, "It makes me sad to see someone else by your side."

During the few minutes of silence Shi Ying was in, the boy felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

Could it be that she no longer likes him? Could it be that his previous rejection hurt her?

Falling ginkgo leaves landed on their shoulders, and the chirping of birds in the silent sky masked the sound of his pounding heart.

Suddenly, Shi Ying tiptoed and gently kissed his cheek:

"Of course I have to listen to my boyfriend."

The bright, dazzling sunlight shone on the two of them, and her smiling face gradually became hazy in the halo of light, gradually overlapping with the scene before her.

Shang Chenyan stood there, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.
