Lin Jiage's car was parked by the roadside. When he reached out for his car keys, his fingertips brushed against the recording pen once more.
His body stiffened, and his footsteps abruptly came to a halt.
Shi Yao, who was holding onto his other hand, also noticed his abnormality, so she stopped as well. "What's wrong?"
As she spoke, Shi Yao turned to look at Lin Jiage.
Seeing that he was staring straight ahead, she followed his line of sight, but other than a few parked cars, there wasn't anything out of the ordinary.
Perplexed, Shi Yao frowned as she turned to look at Lin Jiage and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Lin Jiage finally snapped out of his daze. When he turned to look at Shi Yao, he caught sight of the tiny diamond ring on her finger from the corner of his eye.
As if someone had comforted him, his heart immediately softened. He met Shi Yao's gaze and shook his head, "It's nothing. Let's go home."
He walked to the car, but he didn't open the door.
He admitted that he was feeling jealous. He wanted Soft Bun's first awakening of love, and those feelings belonged to him too.
But things had already happened, and time couldn't be reversed. No one could change it, and he couldn't keep harboring such thoughts.
The past really wasn't that important, was it? At the very least, the current her was truly in love with him …
With this thought in mind, Lin Jiage quickly composed himself and raised his hand, intending to open the car door.
But before his fingers could touch the handlebars, Shi Yao, who was standing beside him, suddenly spoke up, "Lin Jiage, why don't you just leave the car here? There's no need for the chauffeur to come all the way here. Let's just take a stroll back …"
Take a walk?
Lin Jiage frowned. It would take at least twenty minutes to get home by car. If they were to take a walk, how long would that take?
Seeing the young man's reaction, Shi Yao could vaguely guess what he was thinking, so she spoke up once more, "Let's just walk in the direction of home. If we get tired from walking, we'll just call a cab home, alright?"
There was no way he could reject her coquettishness. Without saying a word, he retracted his hand from the car and replied, "Alright."
At two o 'clock in the morning, there weren't that many cars on the streets. The people on the sidewalks were no longer coming and going like they were during the day.
Not too long after the two of them started walking in the direction of their home, Shi Yao finally let go of Lin Jiage's hand and hooked her arm around his, drawing closer to him.
Perhaps it was due to the alcohol she had drunk earlier, but even though she wasn't drunk, her words were much more talkative than usual. "Winter in Beijing has always been cold … but this year, I'm not afraid of the cold. Do you know why?"
Lin Jiage didn't say a word, but he turned his head to look at Shi Yao.
"That's because I have you …" After saying those words, Shi Yao giggled to herself.
The corners of Lin Jiage's lips curled up into a doting smile.
Not long after, there was a pedestrian street. Many shops were closed, and only one selling sweet potatoes still had its lights on.
Shi Yao had Lin Jiage wait for a moment before running over.
After a while, she came back with a paper bag.
The paper bag was steaming hot, and it was filled with a huge sweet potato.
Shi Yao placed the sweet potato in front of Lin Jiage's face, and Lin Jiage took a symbolic bite before putting it down. Hugging the sweet potato tightly, Shi Yao nibbled on it with relish. Just as she was about to finish it, she suddenly thought of something and spoke up.
