Since her marriage to Zhao Feng in her previous life, Xia Qiuran could clearly feel that she had lost the ability to trust others. Even though she had agreed to be with Lu Zhenghan, she still had reservations in her heart.

But after this accidental farewell, she truly realized that there are still such sincere emotions in this world. When you like someone, as long as they are well, nothing else matters.

"Zhenghan, let's never be apart again, okay?"

Xia Qiuran stepped forward and stood in front of Lu Zhenghan. Her long eyelashes were still glistening with moisture, and they trembled gently in the breeze, making her eyes look soft and bright.

The traces of crying did not diminish her appearance; instead, they added a broken yet vibrant beauty.

Lu Zhenghan couldn't help but reach out and gently wipe Xia Qiuran's eye with his finger.

"Okay, we'll never be apart again."

Xia Qiuran glanced around again, and taking advantage of Lu Zhenghan's inattention, she tiptoed and quickly kissed his chin.

Her soft lips resembled a delicate flower petal, exuding a captivating fragrance.

The light, warm touch made Lu Zhenghan freeze instantly, caught off guard and stunned. His ears immediately turned red, and he quickly looked around.

"Ranran, this won't work."

As a soldier, he had to be mindful of his image at all times. Even though he and Xia Qiuran were in a relationship, he could never kiss in public.

Xia Qiuran found Lu Zhenghan's slightly shy appearance cute and amusing, so she deliberately said something.

"If this won't work, then where will it work?"

Lu Zhenghan looked away in a flustered manner, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"If you insist on doing this, then let's find a day to rest and go out..."

Looking at Xia Qiuran's charming appearance, Lu Zhenghan took a deep breath and tried to calm the sudden agitation in his heart.

"Where shall we go together?" Xia Qiuran leaned a little closer.

Lu Zhenghan thought for a moment: "We can go to the park or watch a movie together."

In his mind, movie theaters and parks were the only places he could think of for couples to go on dates.

"The movies are just the same two films over and over again, there's nothing to watch. The park is just some flowers and plants, even more boring. Since you don't want that, then forget it, I don't want that either."

Xia Qiuran snorted, released Lu Zhenghan's arm, took a half step back, and said deliberately.

She wanted to see what else this taciturn Lu Zhenghan could say.

But after seeing the obvious tension in Lu Zhenghan's eyes, she couldn't help but smile.

Looking at the darkening sky around him, Lu Zhenghan thought about how he and Xia Qiuran had been arguing for so long and hadn't been able to spend much time together. How could he not miss her?

"It's getting late. How about I take you back to the shelter first? We can talk in the meantime."

"Great! I came here on Comrade Yan's bicycle, so you can give me a ride."

"Um."

To be honest, walking alone at night is a bit scary, but with Lu Zhenghan here this time, she doesn't have to worry at all.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Lu Zhenghan took the two 28-inch motorcycles. The motorcycles, which had been quite unruly in Xia Qiuran's hands, were now as docile as kittens in Lu Zhenghan's hands, without any temper at all.

Lu Zhenghan got on the bike, his back straight, and the bike moved forward steadily without him even using his hands.

Xia Qiuran sat sideways in the back seat, gently wrapping her arms around his lower back, her palms pressed against his firm, warm waist and abdomen. Through only two layers of fabric, she could clearly feel his well-defined abdominal muscles.

"That figure is really good." Xia Qiuran gently moved her fingers, and a tingling sensation slowly spread through her waist.

Lu Zhenghan's grip on the handlebars tightened suddenly, causing the bike, which had been riding steadily, to sway slightly. His body tensed up involuntarily, and his waist and abdomen hardened instantly.

"Ranran, don't move around." Lu Zhenghan said softly.

"I didn't move around, what if I fall because I can't hold on?"

Xia Qiuran hugged her tighter and answered in a coquettish manner.

Lu Zhenghan had no choice but to let Xia Qiuran continue to stick to his back like this.

Silently suppressing the restlessness, I forced myself to look straight ahead and calm my mind.

Lu Zhenghan rode his bicycle fast, and it took him half as long as Xia Qiuran to reach the rescue station.

But no matter how fast time flies, it was already completely dark.

"Go on in, I'll ride the bike back first and return it to Yan Jun later," Lu Zhenghan said, standing still.

Xia Qiuran bit her lower lip but didn't leave. For some reason, after this incident, she seemed to have a feeling of gain and loss, always afraid that after separating from Lu Zhenghan, he would leave her.

"Brother Zhenghan, I heard from Sister Wenmei that foreign couples kiss each other when they part ways." Xia Qiuran tugged at Lu Zhenghan's sleeve, her eyes bright.

It was rare to see Xia Qiuran so dependent on him, and Lu Zhenghan felt indescribably happy. However, after scanning his surroundings, he realized it wasn't too late yet, and people could be moving around the shelter at any time.

It's too risky to be here.

Xia Qiuran is still an unmarried young woman, and if this kind of thing gets out, it will always be the woman who suffers.

"Ranran, people can come out here at any time. Our country's situation is different from that of foreign countries. If we are seen, we may get into trouble." Lu Zhenghan's voice was low and magnetic, with a soft breath at the end of his sentence. While trying to comfort Xia Qiuran, the dark color in his eyes grew darker and darker.

"Okay." Xia Qiuran pouted slightly and turned to leave.

"Go back now. I'll come see you during your next break," Lu Zhenghan said, waving his hand.

"Okay, I'll head back now."

Xia Qiuran took two steps, looked around carefully, and when no one was there, she suddenly ran back and kissed Lu Zhenghan on the cheek.

"Then I want to kiss him too. If someone sees us, we're doomed."

After the kiss, he ran away like a child who had just gotten away with something bad.

After running a few steps, she secretly glanced back, her eyes crinkling with a sly yet shy smile.

Lu Zhenghan's fingers were still suspended in mid-air, and there was still a slight itch on the spot on his cheek where he had been kissed.

This was the second time Xia Qiuran had kissed him today. He had been feeling annoyed that he hadn't gone to Suzhou, but now he was actually glad he hadn't. Judging from Xia Qiuran's attitude towards him now, he should be able to submit his marriage application soon.

If the two of them get married, those troubles will be easily resolved. It seems like it's time to make some plans.

Lu Zhenghan suppressed his excitement and watched Xia Qiuran enter the rescue station before turning around and pushing his bicycle.

Xia Qiuran hummed a little tune the whole time. Today was the happiest day she had come to the city, even happier than when she got a promotion and became a permanent employee.

Upon entering, the first thing I saw was Bai Yunyun sitting lazily in a chair.

This is normally the time for cleaning, but with so many people and poor conditions here, it's easy to get infected, so we need to pay special attention to hygiene.

Upon seeing Xia Qiuran return, Bai Yunyun immediately stood up from her chair as if by reflex. During this time, Xia Qiuran had smoothed out her rough edges, to the point that she now felt a bit traumatized whenever she saw Xia Qiuran.

"I just finished my work, I'll go clean up in a bit."

"It's alright, you can rest. I'll clean up today," Xia Qiuran said calmly.

Having been away for so long, Bai Yunyun did most of the work by herself today. Although she usually manages things, she would never bully anyone.

She will do more work to make up for the day's time.

Bai Yunyun's face clearly showed a hint of flattery upon hearing this, and she was secretly puzzled as to why he seemed like a different person after going out for a while.

"Bai Yunyun!"

Before she could figure it out, Xia Qiuran roared from inside.

"Come here."
