Reborn in 2006, I met Mr. Zhou from the past.

A while later, Zhou Chenyu sent a message: "I'll be waiting for you downstairs in half an hour."

Oh, I was just saying it offhand, Brother Zhou is really awesome. Anyway, I'd better hurry up and pack my things.

Su Fengnan got up, packed up her computer, and went back to her room to get two sets of clothes. Just as she finished packing and came to the living room, Su Fengxia came out after taking a shower.

Seeing this, she quickly asked, "Sister, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to Zhucheng. I'll leave tonight so there won't be any traffic. I'll be back in two days."

"What are you going to Zhucheng for? There are no cars at night. Are you going to take an unlicensed taxi?" Su Fengxia asked, looking puzzled.

Su Fengnan then realized that she hadn't told her younger sister about opening a shop, so she quickly explained, "I'm planning to open a cake shop in Zhucheng. I found a shop last week, and now I have to rush over to find someone to do the renovations."

"There's no rush to go now, we can leave tomorrow."

"Tomorrow is National Day, do you think there won't be traffic jams on the roads?"

Su Fengxia thought about it and agreed. Tomorrow, people will be traveling everywhere, and traffic jams and even car accidents are common occurrences.

"Then I'll go with you! You can't leave me home alone this time, wait for me for two minutes."

After saying that, Su Fengxia ran back to her room, quickly changed her clothes, stuffed a change of clothes into her schoolbag, and rushed out with her bag on her back.

"Let's go."

Su Fengnan sighed, "Why are you going with me? You're just making things worse. I'm going in someone else's car, and I'd feel awkward taking you with me."

"Bringing one is fine, bringing two shouldn't be a problem either." Su Fengxia didn't care about the consequences and just wanted to follow her sister.

Seeing that his younger sister was determined, Su Fengnan had no choice but to compromise and take her along.

Before leaving, Su Fengnan brewed a cup of black tea she had bought at the supermarket, secretly adding spiritual spring water to it, intending to give it to Zhou Chenyu later as a way of repaying him for his help several times. She also brewed a cup of jujube and goji berry tea for herself, adding spiritual spring water as well, intending to drink it with her younger sister.

"Here's your water bottle. You can drink it if you're thirsty. Let's go."

Su Fengxia obediently took her water cup and followed her sister downstairs.

When the two came downstairs, Zhou Chenyu was already waiting. Seeing the girl beside Su Fengnan, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Is your sister going too?"

Before Su Fengnan could speak, Su Fengxia stepped forward and said, "Hello, Teacher Zhou! I'm home alone and have nothing to do, so I'd like to go to Zhucheng with my sister for a couple of days. Could you please take me with you?"

When Su Fengxia saw Zhou Chenyu downstairs, she knew that her sister had ridden in his car, so she preemptively expressed her thoughts.

Su Fengnan tried to explain somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Brother Zhou, my sister insisted on coming along to take a look..."

"It's alright, there's room in the car. Let's go, the car's over there." Zhou Chenyu smiled gently and pointed towards the direction near the gate of the residential area.

The three of them walked towards the gate, one after the other. Zhou Chenyu didn't mind Su Fengxia following him at all, but this made it difficult for him to get closer to the young girl.

Su Fengnan also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhou Chenyu readily agreed, otherwise she really would have had to change the time.

Zhao Chuan had already filled up the car with gas and was waiting at the door. Seeing Zhou Chenyu and the other two approaching, he quickly got out of the car to open the door, but Zhou Chenyu stopped him.

"Could you please put the bags of the two students surnamed Su in the trunk?"

Zhao Chuan recognized the girl who had delivered the food earlier, politely took their bags, and carefully put them in the trunk.

Zhou Chenyu opened the car door for Su Fengnan, and Su Fengnan got into the back seat without any hesitation.

Zhou Chenyu turned to look at Su Fengxia: "Sister, please sit in the front."

After saying that, he got into the back seat himself. Seeing this, Su Fengxia opened the door and got into the passenger seat.

As the buildings outside the window became fewer and fewer and the car drove smoothly on the highway, Su Fengnan handed the water cup in her hand to Zhou Chenyu and said sincerely, "Brother Zhou, this is black tea that I specially brewed for you. You can drink it if you are thirsty later. Don't mind it."

Zhou Chenyu looked at the water glass handed to him, a smile creeping onto his lips. He took the glass, found the temperature was just right, and opened the lid to take a small sip.

The tea was fragrant, with a subtle aroma, and its refreshing taste quickly made one's mouth water. He took another sip and found the flavor to be unlike anything he had ever tasted before. So he drank it down in no time.

He couldn't help but turn to look at Su Fengnan: "Where did you buy this tea? It tastes very good."

"Really? I just bought regular black tea at the supermarket." Su Fengnan looked at him. "If Brother Zhou likes it, I'll brew some more for you when we get back to Zijiang."

Zhou Chenyu sensed that Su Fengnan wasn't telling the truth, but now wasn't the time to press for an answer. He replied with an "okay," stroking his water glass as a sweet feeling welled up inside him.

Sometime later, Su Fengnan leaned back in her chair and fell asleep. When she woke up, she was already at the hotel in Zhucheng.

"Sister, we've arrived." Before Zhou Chenyu could speak, Su Fengxia woke her up.

Su Fengnan sat up straight reflexively: "Have we arrived?"

"Okay, let's get out of the car." Zhou Chenyu opened the door and got out first.

The three went to the front desk to register. The staff informed them that the room rate had doubled during the National Day holiday. Zhou Chenyu was about to pay Su Fengnan's room rate as well, but Su Fengnan resolutely refused.

Actually, Zhou Chenyu originally wanted to arrange a suite so they could just move in upon arrival. But considering Su Fengnan's personality, knowing she wouldn't accept it easily, she abandoned that idea and stayed with her in a regular standard room.

After paying and receiving their room keys, the three of them took the elevator to the fifth floor. The two rooms were not far apart, and Su Fengxia walked ahead with her room key, looking for her room.

Su Fengnan and Zhou Chenyu walked side by side behind. Just then, Zhou Chenyu's phone rang. He glanced at the message and said, "By the way, the renderings are ready. I've already arranged to meet the designer tomorrow morning."

"Okay, what time should we meet tomorrow morning, Brother Zhou?"

"Tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock."

With a crisp, short "beep," Su Fengxia found the room. She opened the door first, inserted the power card, and the dark room instantly lit up.

Having found their rooms, Zhou Chenyu looked around and found his own room—right across from Su Fengnan's. He walked over, swiped his card, and the door opened.

Zhou Chenyu turned around, about to say something to Su Fengnan, but Su Fengnan spoke first: "Brother Zhou, it's getting late, you should go to your room and rest."

Okay, you too. Goodnight.

"Okay, goodnight."

After they finished speaking, they each went back to their rooms.

Zhao Chuan parked the car in the underground parking lot, handed the keys to Zhou Chenyu, and left. He didn't rest during the National Day holiday; he still had to handle other work arranged by Zhou Chenyu.

I slept without any dreams.
