summer fireworks

In late autumn, Song Zhilin officially became the CEO of Starlight Media B City Branch.

Her office was moved from the TV department to the CEO's office that had been vacant on the top floor of the company, and the assistant department was moved accordingly, and she had a dedicated assistant office next to it.

Xiao Zhao from the assistant department recently found out that their boss, who loves work, has stopped working overtime recently. He leaves work on time at six o'clock every day, and there is no one there.

Moreover, Song Zhilin used to dress very smartly, and her accessories were mainly ties, but recently she changed into silk scarves of various colors, making her look much softer.

The assistant department agreed that the boss must be in a relationship.

Xiao Zhao thought that she would not dare to gossip about the boss, but Song Zhilin's recent changes had made her curiosity peak. Xiao Zhao originally thought that if the boss really fell in love, he would definitely treat them to afternoon tea. Just wait for that day to come... However, when she found out that Song Zhilin took out all the coats in the spare closet on Friday and sent them to dry cleaning together, she really couldn't help it.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Zhao sneaked into Song Zhilin's office quietly, wanting to ask a few indirect questions, but saw Song Zhilin pressing her phone while packing her things, apparently getting ready to leave work.

Xiao Zhao paused, and just as he was about to leave, Song Zhilin saw her through the glass door and called out, "Xiao Zhao, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Xiao Zhao stopped immediately, raised his head and pushed open the door, "Boss, the Internet department said there will be a meeting tomorrow afternoon..."

She saw Song Zhilin frowning, and a very familiar expression appeared on her face—the expression that most people show when they don't want to work overtime. This kind of expression is absolutely impossible to appear on Song Zhilin's face. Seeing the good things of the boss, she opened her eyes wide reflexively, showing an innocent expression:

"I'll help you sort out the materials, you should remember to look at them tomorrow."

Song Zhilin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll treat you to milk tea tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, she didn't wait for a second, picked up her handbag, and left the office, leaving Xiao Zhao staring at her back dumbfounded.

Song Zhilin replied to Yan Shu's message while walking towards the underground garage:

"After get off work, come here immediately."

When Yan Shu stayed late in the studio, she would pick him up, which seemed to have become a tacit understanding between them.

Many times, Yan Shu sent her a message at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, saying that Song Zhilin wanted to pick her up when the painting was finished. Of course, she could leave work early, but her professional ethics did not allow her to do so. Song Zhilin I just took over this position, there are too many things to do, and I don't work overtime anymore, so it is really unreasonable to leave work early.

On the way to pick up Yan Shu, Song Zhilin's mood gradually improved.In the embers of the setting sun, she really felt that everything was slowly getting better.

As soon as Song Zhilin arrived at the studio, she saw Yan Shu carrying a canvas bag and standing under the eaves of the studio playing with her mobile phone. Her long hair fell softly on her shoulders, and the gentle light made her look like a college student.

She stopped the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and walked up to Yan Shu, and said with a smile, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"It's been a while," Yan Shu put away his phone, hugged her arm, and acted like a baby to her, "I've been made to wait so long, and you want to treat me to ice cream."

"Okay."

Song Zhilin took her hand, and the moment her skin touched Yan Shu's, she felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.As long as I can hold her hand like this, not to mention there is such a moment... the moment when I can come to pick Yan Shu home.Song Zhilin felt very happy.

"Come on, I'll treat you to some ice cream."

Yan Shu immediately laughed and said, "There's a canteen across the street! Let's go!"

Song Zhilin's heart was melted in this smile, she and Yan Shu crossed the road, and bought an ice cream in a small shop, the most common milk ice cream.Song Zhilin bit into this ice cream, feeling that it was too sweet.It was so sweet that she seemed to have never eaten such a sweet ice cream.

Song Zhilin looked at Yan Shu's smile, and she just felt... that happiness is just fine, regardless of whether it is true or not.

They've been like this for a while.

I don't know when it started, Song Zhilin came to pick Yan Shu up from get off work, and then had dinner together, then went for a walk, or found a bar for a drink, and finally went to the hotel for the night.They do these things tacitly without asking each other why.

But, this night... Song Zhilin began to feel that she wanted to get more.

The mark on her neck was painful and exuded burning heat. After Song Zhilin left the company, she took off the silk scarf. At this time, she was only wearing a shirt and a skirt, but traces of a professional woman could still be seen. Next to her was a painted sweater and Yan Shu, who looked like a college student in a plaid skirt.

Song Zhilin felt that their time seemed to be a little bit wrong.Yan Shu stayed in the past, where she missed her, and Song Zhilin panicked over all of this.

"Yan Shu," she pulled Yan Shu's hand, "let's go."

"Okay, I'll finish this." Yan Shu finished eating the ice cream in two or three bites, and threw the sticks into the trash can, "What's wrong with you?"

She looked at Song Zhilin in the driver's seat. Song Zhilin was about to start the car, looking like he really wanted to escape from this place.

Yan Shu stretched out his hand to touch Song Zhilin's mark, and sure enough, he felt a little hot.

"Get out of the car," Yan Shu pushed her, "I'll drive."

"Need not……"

Song Zhilin had just finished speaking, when she saw Yan Shu's tough expression, she obediently got out of the car and changed seats with Yan Shu.

Yan Shu sat in the driver's seat, patted Song Zhilin's head with a smile, and said, "You're so cute."

Song Zhilin wanted to say something, but her head was already getting a little hot.She didn't know why just thinking about "missing" made her feel bad.

Yan Shu helped her fasten her seat belt, and said with a smile: "In the first three months after being marked, I would have a little fever from time to time. You know."

Song Zhilin nodded, she really knew, she pressed her forehead with one hand, hoping to relieve it.This should be the last time she had a fever. After this time, the mark wouldn't disappear and remained on her body, looking like an ordinary mark.

It's just that it exists on Alpha, so it seems taboo in itself.

Dinner has been set, and the weather is turning cold, just in time to eat sukiyaki.

Yan Shu booked a private room, on the second floor of the izakaya, the location is not big, but fortunately the decoration is cozy.The owner of the store is quite temperamental, and only offers one set meal. A small hot pot is placed on the cassette stove, which contains neatly stacked cabbage and mushrooms, four different kinds of meat, and two sterile Egg.

The sukiyaki tastes good, and the light soup is sweet.The pork belly is very fresh, with toughness in the mouth, and the mixture of lean meat and fat is just right. After being wrapped in egg yolk, it gives people a full sense of satisfaction after one bite.

After Yan Shu finished eating the pork belly, she ordered the beef immediately. She liked the taste of beef better than pork belly, which had a special aroma.

After the meat is finished, the cabbage and mushrooms are cooked to perfection.The cabbage was full of soup and full of freshness and sweetness. Yan Shu liked to eat the crisp and tender stalks the most. She only picked up the first one, and Song Zhilin put all the rest into her bowl. The soft cabbage leaves in the bag were given to Song Zhilin.

Yan Shu ate happily, and said with a smile, "It fits well."

Song Zhilin looked at her and smiled, but didn't speak.

After dinner, you should go to the hotel as usual.

Song Zhilin had a fever and couldn't drive the car. Yan Shu sat in the driver's seat, pondered for a few seconds, then turned to her and asked, "Can I go to my house?"

After Song Zhilin finished eating, she felt dizzy even more, and asked her in a daze, "Why?"

"Because I tagged you at the hotel."

Yan Shu leaned over, pushed back the hair on her forehead, and kissed her forehead.

"I don't want the last fever to be in the hotel."

Song Zhilin looked at her puzzled, and said, "I don't care..."

Before she finished speaking, Yan Shu interrupted her: "I care."

Yan Shu remembered every time she had a fever after being marked, and every time she was in the hotel.At first she thought that as long as it was Song Zhilin, she didn't mind where and how to mark it. Later, after Song Zhilin left, she began to think what if it was at home?Wouldn't it be better if her marks weren't in such a cold, lifeless place?

Will her memory be more tender when thinking of this incident?

The regrets she had, she didn't want Song Zhilin to experience it again.

Yan Shu felt that she didn't hold back the urge and tagged Song Zhilin at an inappropriate time and place. Therefore, she hoped that at least when Song Zhilin had a fever for the last time, she could be in a warm place.She wishes she could do better.

In fact, she did.

Yan Shu didn't know if she was trying to make up for her regrets, or if she was afraid that one day when Song Zhilin left her, she hoped that Song Zhilin would think of her as good memories...Even if she didn't want to imagine this day, Yan Shu felt that what had happened, It won't happen a second time.

Song Zhilin will not leave her again.Also won't be with her again.

She looked at Song Zhilin's sleeping face, Song Zhilin seemed to have let go of all defenses, put his arms around her waist, and pressed his face against her arm.The air conditioner was turned on in the room, and Song Zhilin's quilt only covered her arms, revealing her round shoulders, and there were a few hickey marks on her fair skin.

Yan Shu kissed her forehead again, a kind of tenderness lingered in her heart, making Yan Shu feel that as long as she looked at Song Zhilin like this, it would be fine, even if Song Zhilin didn't do anything, as long as she was by her side.

"Aren't you going to sleep?"

Song Zhilin was woken up by her, asked her in a daze, rubbed her face lightly on her arm, and said:

"Go to bed early..."

"Go to sleep."

Yan Shu turned off the light, held Song Zhilin's hand tightly in the dark, and muttered softly:

"It's just you who like to worry."

It's a bit crowded for two people to sleep in a small bed, but Yan Shu hopes that the squeeze will last forever.

Because, she discovered one thing.When Song Zhilin spoke to her in that drowsy voice, Yan Shu immediately understood that just being by her side like Song Zhilin was enough to make her happy.

She no longer needs Song Zhilin to do anything for her. Yan Shu suddenly understood that the moment she thought she loved Song Zhilin before was the moment when she wanted Song Zhilin to love her. She tortured herself and Song Zhilin for this, and gained It is nothing more than a selfish, meaningless love.

However, this night... She realized that no matter what kind of her Song Zhilin loved, what she did, what kind of person she became, and how many moments she hated her, none of this mattered anymore.

Only one thing matters - she loves Song Zhilin.
