Psst! We're moving!
The moment Bo Ying heard the child’s voice, she nearly died on the spot.
She lowered her head, exchanged a glance with the child beside her, and then silently buried her face in He Jingxiu’s embrace.
He Jingxiu couldn’t help but let out a deep, muffled laugh.
His laughter vibrated through his chest, clearly reaching Bo Ying and making her blush even more.
Who would have thought that her rare moment of主动 initiative would lead to such an embarrassing situation?
“...Don’t laugh.”
Bo Ying mumbled a warning, nestled in his arms.
He Jingxiu held her closer, looking at the child, “What are you doing here?”
The child’s large eyes sparkled, and he said innocently, “Watching you kiss!”
He Jingxiu: “...”
He was about to say something else, but Bo Ying, unable to bear it, grabbed his hand and pulled him away.
After running for a distance, Bo Ying panted, “Are they still chasing us?”
“...”
He Jingxiu paused, then told her, “They’re not paparazzi.”
They weren’t celebrities; usually, no one would chase them.
Bo Ying: “...Oh.”
She had forgotten.
She looked around and whispered, “No one else here, right?”
He Jingxiu smiled, “No.”
His gaze burned into Bo Ying, his eyes filled with suppressed laughter, “So scared?”
Bo Ying glanced at him, “You know this village is very small, don’t you?”
He Jingxiu raised an eyebrow.
Bo Ying told him that they had heard a lot of gossip when they first arrived yesterday: who was arguing, which couple had a bad relationship, which couple had a good relationship, and so on.
Here, a small matter could spread throughout the entire village.
Bo Ying still had to stay here for several days. She certainly didn’t want people in the village to start talking about her and He Jingxiu kissing in an alley after today. She’d rather die.
Thinking of the scrutinizing glances from the villagers, Bo Ying felt a pang in her heart.
After listening to her, He Jingxiu pondered for a long time, “Then we really should pay attention to our image.”
He teased Bo Ying, “I didn’t realize my girlfriend missed me so much.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bo Ying stomped on his foot.
He Jingxiu winced in pain, speechless.
Bo Ying glared at him, “Do you believe I can send you back right now?”
He Jingxiu smiled, pulling her back into his embrace, no longer teasing her, and said in a deep voice, “Don’t move, just hug for a bit.”
Bo Ying initially wanted to struggle but then decided against it.
He had traveled thousands of miles to get here; it would be too petty for her to be difficult.
The two quietly hugged for a while, then Bo Ying asked, “How did you get here?”
“By car.”
Bo Ying was stunned, looking at him in disbelief, “By car?”
He Jingxiu explained, “Luo Xiao came with me, we took turns driving.”
Bo Ying blinked, trying hard to calculate the distance from Beicheng, and guessed, “You left right after I called you?”
He Jingxiu nodded.
For a moment, Bo Ying didn’t know what to say.
She stared intently at the man’s handsome face, as if missing even a glance would mean missing something.
Noticing her gaze, He Jingxiu smiled and rubbed her nose, “If you look at me like that, I won’t be able to resist kissing you.”
“...”
Bo Ying still didn’t move.
He Jingxiu kissed the corner of her lips, and said to himself, “I used to think that at my age, I couldn’t handle such a long road trip, but it turns out I can.”
He said to Bo Ying, “Next time, the two of us will go on that road trip you want to take.”
Just the two of them.
Bo Ying blinked slightly, her throat feeling dry.
She pursed her lips and softly replied, “Mm.”
He Jingxiu patted her head, “What’s that expression? Unhappy?”
“You know it’s not that,” Bo Ying looked at him.
He Jingxiu paused, then smiled helplessly. Of course, he knew Bo Ying wasn’t unhappy; she was feeling sorry for him, blaming herself, and feeling sad.
But honestly, he was willing to endure it.
Walking to where she was, let alone a ten-hour drive, even twenty hours, a hundred hours, he would be willing.
Because it was a path that led closer to her.
It was the path she had opened for him.
He Jingxiu paused, his voice hoarse, “Not tired.”
Bo Ying hummed in response, then actively wrapped her arms around him, “Then do you want to go sleep for a bit? Or are you leaving soon?”
He Jingxiu looked at her and nodded, “I’ll leave later. I’ll stay with you until your lunch break is over.”
Bo Ying was momentarily stunned, looking around, “Then let’s go sleep for a bit? My lunch break is until two o’clock.”
She glanced at the time; there was still an hour and twenty minutes.
He Jingxiu wasn’t actually sleepy, but seeing Bo Ying like this, he was afraid she’d worry, so he agreed directly.
Bo Ying thought for a moment, “But my dormitory might not be very convenient.”
He Jingxiu squeezed her hand, “We can rest in the car for a while.”
“Okay.”
The conditions here were simple, so that was the only option.
Back in the car, the two lay separately on either side.
Bo Ying wasn’t sleepy, but with He Jingxiu beside her, she seemed a little drowsy.
She stared at He Jingxiu’s profile, urging him, “Go to sleep quickly.”
He Jingxiu couldn’t argue with her, so he closed his eyes for a nap and unknowingly fell asleep.
Bo Ying watched him for a long time before closing her eyes and resting too.
Their hands were awkwardly intertwined, neither willing to let go first.
________________________________________
After resting in the car for an hour, Bo Ying had to go back to work.
He Jingxiu looked at her, “Go. Call me if anything happens.”
He gently reminded her, “Be careful, safety first. Nothing else matters.”
Bo Ying smiled, “Got it, you too.”
She looked up at him, “No matter how late you arrive, you have to text me.”
So she could see it as soon as she opened her eyes.
“Okay.”
The two had a quick meeting, and then Bo Ying left first.
He Jingxiu and Luo Xiao were also busy. After spending most of the day there, they set off back again.
...
That evening, when Bo Ying finished work and returned to her dorm, she saw the things He Jingxiu had left for her.
Yu Mengjia glanced at them, “What are these?”
“For keeping mice away,” Bo Ying pointed, “It says so right there.”
Yu Mengjia: “...CEO He is so thoughtful.”
Bo Ying’s lips curved into a silent smile.
Yu Mengjia looked at her and sighed, “Now I really want to fall in love.”
“Hmm?”
Yu Mengjia shrugged, “Seeing you and CEO He like this, I believe in love again.”
Bo Ying couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Love has always been there,” she patted Yu Mengjia’s shoulder, “You have to believe to find it.”
Yu Mengjia: “Can I find a good man like CEO He?”
“You can.”
Yu Mengjia gazed at her, and after a moment of silence, asked, “I suddenly want to interview you. What were your thoughts when you found out CEO He came here today?”
“Thoughts?”
Bo Ying squatted on the floor, unpacking the things He Jingxiu prepared. Besides mouse repellents, there were some small snacks she usually liked, and a bubble machine, she didn’t know why he bought it, truly treating her like a child.
She pondered for a moment, then looked up at Yu Mengjia, saying softly, “My thoughts are, in this life, besides my brother and him, there will be no third man who would travel thousands of miles just because I cried.”
And, it was just to see her for a moment.
Twenty hours round trip, equivalent to a day and a night.
Besides He Jingxiu and Bo Yan, there would be no one else.
Yu Mengjia listened, deeply moved.
“Wuwu...” she looked at Bo Ying, “Then did you have an impulse at that time?”
“What impulse?”
“Just the impulse to marry this man.”
Hearing that, Bo Ying raised an eyebrow, a smile on her face, and said, “I wanted to marry him when I was sixteen. This isn’t an impulse for me anymore.”
Yu Mengjia: “...”
Alright, she was talking too much; she shouldn’t have come here to witness this display of affection.

After He Jingxiu returned, Bo Ying’s rest and work became exceptionally smooth.
The five days of different work and life ended, and Bo Ying was filled with emotion.
On the way back, she looked out at the scenery outside the window, feeling that time had passed so quickly.
In the blink of an eye, their internship was over, and the filming was also coming to an end.
“Is our show airing this Saturday?”
The show, for various considerations, was aired after filming was completed.
A colleague nodded, “Yes, by then we’ll all be done, and everyone can watch it at home.”
“If you want to watch it together, that’s fine too. We can arrange a time to watch an episode together later.”
“Alright, alright,” everyone agreed.
Although they had only spent a short month together, the revolutionary camaraderie they had built was already very deep.
Bo Ying’s lips curved upwards, feeling very fortunate to have met such a good team and good colleagues.
Everyone was responsible and easygoing, each with their own strengths and outstanding talents. More importantly, they all had pride, but it was just right, making people admire and envy them, rather than dislike them for being arrogant.
Just right.
Everything was just right.

As they chatted, for some reason, the topic shifted to Bo Ying.
“Bo Ying, when we part ways, will you invite us to your good news with CEO He?”
Bo Ying laughed, “Of course!”
She said cheerfully, “I must invite you, and you all must come.”
“Absolutely, I’ll pay for my own trip even if it’s abroad.”
“Exactly, exactly.”
Bo Ying smiled, blinking, and said, “If it’s abroad, I’ll charter a plane for everyone, no need to pay yourselves.”
“Great!” a colleague said, “As expected of someone who’s going to be the CEO’s wife, truly generous.”
Bo Ying: “...”
The group chatted and laughed, very happy.
But in fact, everyone felt quite reluctant.
However, fireworks always disperse, and they too would eventually part ways.
After returning to Beicheng, Bo Ying and her group had one last day of filming.
He Jingxiu had originally wanted to pick her up, but she refused. She wanted to leave with everyone.
That night, the two didn’t meet either.
Bo Ying was too tired. After washing up at her place, she went straight to sleep.
The next day, when she went to the law firm, she specifically chose a beautiful and intellectual outfit, considering it a perfect farewell to this journey.
This day passed much faster than she had imagined.
By the time work ended, Bo Ying hadn’t quite processed it.
“It’s over?”
She looked blankly at Yu Mengjia.
Yu Mengjia nodded, her eyes a little red, “Bo Ying, what do I do? I don’t want to leave you.”
Bo Ying felt the same way.
After work, several lawyers treated everyone to a big dinner.
Bo Ying told He Jingxiu she was leaving, then went with everyone.
Yesterday, Bo Ying had already felt emotional.
But now that they were truly parting, her reluctance grew even stronger.
During dinner, everyone’s eyes reddened.
Bo Ying was no exception.
She wasn’t usually one to cry; the rare times she did were out of fright. She always felt crying was embarrassing, but today she simply couldn’t hold back.
When He Jingxiu came to pick her up, Bo Ying was embracing Yu Mengjia, her eyes red.
He greeted Bo Ying’s teachers and colleagues, quietly waiting for her to finish talking with Yu Mengjia.
Everyone had drunk quite a bit. He Jingxiu looked around, and together with Bo Ying, he drove Yu Mengjia home.
After Yu Mengjia got out of the car, only the two of them remained.
Bo Ying used the rearview mirror to look at the person in the driver’s seat, then leaned over his seat and poked his shoulder, “Why aren’t you talking to me?”
He Jingxiu: “Sober now?”
Bo Ying: “...Already sober.”
She snorted lightly, “I didn’t drink much anyway.”
“Really?” He Jingxiu didn’t believe her.
“Really, if you don’t believe me, smell for yourself.”
He Jingxiu paused, then suddenly turned the steering wheel, exiting the crowded lane.
Bo Ying was startled, and before she could react, He Jingxiu’s car stopped in a parking spot by the roadside. He looked back, his voice deep, “Come to the front.”
Just now, to take care of Yu Mengjia, Bo Ying had sat in the back with her.
Bo Ying said, “Oh,” and scrambled forward.
She was about to sit in the passenger seat when He Jingxiu pulled her, and she fell sideways onto his lap.
“What are you...”
Before she could finish, the man cupped the back of her neck, found her lips, and kissed her deeply.
Bo Ying’s cheeks flushed. Although she felt a bit embarrassed kissing him in the car on a public road, she responded uncontrollably.
The two kissed passionately for a long time.
He Jingxiu held her face, his warm fingertips stroking her cheeks, before saying, “It really wasn’t much.”
Bo Ying: “What?”
She hadn’t fully recovered from the passionate kiss.
He Jingxiu chuckled softly, gently biting the corner of her lips, “The alcohol.”
“...”
Bo Ying finally realized he had been checking how much she had drunk.
Thinking of this, her earlobes turned red, and she quietly complained, “Who checks like that?”
“Hm?”
He Jingxiu said, “I do.”
Bo Ying was stunned by his shamelessness and turned to look at the bustling traffic and crowds outside the window.
After a moment of silence, she poked his shoulder, blushing, and quietly asked, “Aren’t we going home yet?”
He Jingxiu stared at her with deep eyes, his Adam’s apple bobbing, “Going.”
The two understood each other tacitly.
The way home seemed very long, and yet very short.
Parking, entering the elevator, entering the house.
The door closed, and neither of them paid any attention to He Bomei, who was wagging her tail and approaching. They went straight upstairs.
They didn’t want to be disturbed by He Bomei downstairs again.
The moonlight outside the window was beautiful.
The sheer curtains swayed in the breeze, catching Bo Ying’s eyes. Lying on the bed, she occasionally had the illusion that it wasn’t the curtains or the chandelier beneath the ceiling that were swaying, but herself.
The man’s panting echoed in her ears, his breath and body burning her.
She accepted everything he gave, sinking into indulgence with him.
