Upon Su Yicheng’s arrival, Xiao Chen suddenly found him in good condition. Xiao Chen got it easily.

Hesitating for a while, he reminded Su Yicheng, “Boss Su, if we leave herself open, it will affect Ms. Luo’s cause. Besides, haven’t you restrained yourself the previous month?”

He couldn’t understand why Su Yicheng, with such endurance, could break out so easily. He could resist himself in such a hottie before!

Su Yicheng quietly knew what Xiao Chen said. He just couldn’t control himself, and Xiao Chen’s remind rightly came.

In the evening, Su Yicheng didn’t return to Luo Xiaoxi’s apartment. Instead, he took that string of key away. As for Luo Xiaoxi, she was busy taking photos for a magazine. Thus she couldn’t care for him. The two people lost contact as if the two-day intimacy had never happened.

But none of them found it strange, otherwise as if that’s how things were supposed to go.

Su Jianan would leave the hospital this weekend.

The day before she left the hospital, Jiang Shaokai visited her when Lu Boyan was absent. Jiang Shaokai took a bunch of Kikyou which Su Jianan often bought to home.

He wore casual wear today, who looked younger than his age, smiling like a sunny boy.

“It’s Friday, how come you have the time here?” Su Jianan curiously asked.

“Last weekend, a case obstructed us that we didn’t have a rest. We spend the weekend earlier this week.” Jiang Shaokai put the cream-colored Kikyou into the vase. “In addition, I’m visiting you on behalf of all the colleagues in the Municipal Bureau. When I returned from Sanqing, another big case came that Captain Yan was too busy to see you.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Su Jianan smilingly said, “After all, someone will accompany me.”

Jiang Shaokai quietly knew it. “Lu Boyan accompanies you every day? You guys made up?”

Su Jianan nodded her head and squeezed her lips as if she were smiling, but silently.

Jiang Shaokai and Su Jianan knew seven years that he was clearly familiar with her impression. He curiously asked, “What did he say that made you laugh?”

“He……” Su Jianan remembered that morning at City Z, uncontrollably her cheeks were slightly hot, lips corner also unconsciously became sweet, “He confessed to me.”

“Flick—”

Something dropped in Jiang Shaokai’s heart, and his brain appeared blank for a few seconds.

The hospital’s environment was very good and quiet, leaping from the window, the autumn sunshine made the white gauze shined nearly transparent.

The fragrant flowers in the ward, and the comfortable temperature, how sweet it all seemed.

However, it couldn’t rival with the touch of Su Jianan’s lips.

Jiang Shaokai lately understood that that’s how Su Jianan felt happy. Only Lu Boyan could make her so happy.

“Fortunately, you didn’t go with me that day, or you’ll hate me now.” He ignored his inner unnaturalness and maintained the usual smile.

On the day when Su Jianan and Lo Boyan received the marriage certificate, what did he think?

Nothing too complicated, only holding a glimmer of hope to stop them, but when Su Jianan shook her head to refuse, he didn’t dare to take the second step.

It seemed that he should thank the coward at the time. Otherwise, now he and Su Jianan were no longer friends.

“I didn’t think that.” Su Jianan said, “I just wanted to gamble. I have lived for so many years. It was the first time, being a gambler, I took my marriage as a bet. I didn’t expect to win.”

Jiang Shaokai paused and said, “Jianan, you are braver than many people.”

At least, braver than him.

Su Jianan didn’t know the profound meaning of Jiang Shaokai’s words, she just smiled.

She didn’t have many brave times in her life, facing her mother’s departure, insisting on choosing her major, and… marrying Lu Shaoyan.

It seemed that her courage choice was right.

Jiang Shaokai said that there was still something in the afternoon. He left without much stay. He just got out of the hospital when he received a call from his mother.

“Shaokai, you are resting today, are you?”

The mother’s laughter was comfortable and meaningful. Jiang Shaokai had already felt something strange, and he lamented in his heart, “Yes, I am resting today. Mom, I will go home to eat with you and dad this evening.”

“You don’t have to, your parents are young, why need your accompany?” Jiang’s mum said with a smile, “But indeed there is a girl who needs your accompany.”

Jiang Shaokai knew that his mother had arranged a blind date for him. What he didn’t expect was that he had proposed to eat at home but still could not avoid that.

“Mom…” His refusal was powerless.

“You don’t do this.” Jiang’s mum said with great enthusiasm, “Your Uncle Zhou’s daughter, went abroad to study in junior high school. She just recently came back from abroad. I’ve seen her twice, lively and calm, smart and capable but a not strong personality, she has a particularly wide range of hobbies, we like her very much!”

“I suggest you recognizing her as a goddaughter.” Jiang Shaokai said.

“Go away!” Jiang’s mother knew that Jiang Shaokai was very resistant to the blind date and had to take a step back. “In this way, after seeing Qilan, I promised that I’ll not force you to date with others within the next three months.”

Jiang Shaokai thought about it and tried to date for a non-troubled three months, “When to meet?”

Jiang’s mother opened her eyes and smiled. “7 o’clock this evening, the Riverside Cafe! Son, you are fighting to be hunted!”

Jiang Shaokai wanted to laugh and weep all at once. “Which mum wants her son to be settled? Mom, shouldn’t you ask me to get her?”

“I know why you don’t find a girlfriend this year.” Jiang’s mum smiled. “She has been married for so long, and you should give up. In my view, you should resign the job.”

“Stop and stop.” Jiang Shaokai was defeated, “I listen to you, I’ll go to the blind date. Don’t mention to let me resign.”

“I want you to resign is to let you not see, so not embarrassed!” Jiang’s mum coldly hummed, “Bite the hand that feeds it. I only hope that Qilan can get you!”

“…Mom, I’ll buy something first.”

After that, Jiang Shaokai decisively hung up the phone and drove back to the apartment.

The mother of other people was conservative. But his mother grew up abroad since young. When he was young, he heard the most words she said, “Shaokai, let’s be friends.”

She’s been chasing him as a friend since childhood, and it’s unambiguous to worry about his marriage now. The harshest words she said were that: You should either find a girlfriend or come out!

He did nothing, she kept on arranging his blind date, today Zhou Qilan, it’s inevitable.

It was still early, Jiang Shaokai went back to the apartment and slept until 6 o’clock in the afternoon. He took a shower and changed clothes, then drove to the river.

When he arrived at the coffee house, it was just 6:55. He sat beside a window and waited for Zhou Qilan. He saw his figure from the glass window.

He suddenly discovered that he was still casual wear. Although there was nothing wrong with it, it’s still unofficial. Would Zhou Qilan mind?

At this time, a light female voice rang in his ear, “Jiang Shaokai?”

Jiang Shaokai subconsciously followed the voice, the girl’s bright smile was magnified in front of his eyes.

She was also simple casual wear, carrying Balenciaga’s motorcycle bag, light makeup, fair skin, with red lips, and white teeth, whose smile made people feel exceptionally comfortable.

Jiang Shaokai actually absent-minded for a second, then stood up and reached out, “Hello, you are Zhou…”

“Zhou Qilan.” She didn’t stereotypically shake hands with Jiang Shaokai but patted his palm like a westerner. “Have you ordered coffee?”

“Not yet.” Jiang Shaokai had a hunch that this blind date would be completely different from the past.

“No is better.” Zhou Qilan pointed out that “We pack it and go outside. What’s the meaning of sitting here across the glass to see the river sight?”

Of course, Jiang Shaokai had no objection, “What do you drink?”

Zhou Qilan wanted a cup of American coffee, Jiang Shaokai packed a latte, and the two took the coffee and left the elegant cafe.

The two periods of late spring and the early autumn were the most comfortable weather in City A. Suitable cold and warm as if the air was fresh.

“Emm, how long have you been here?” Zhou Qilan said with some embarrassment, “I came to the pedestrian street with my friends before here. Thus, I’m late.”

“You are not late.” Jiang Shaokai said, “I have just arrived in less than five minutes.”

“That–” Zhou Qilan knew something but appeared interestedly. “What are we going to talk about next?”

Jiang Shaokai looked at the girl with long legs in front of him and couldn’t help but smile, “Your first blind date?”

“Is this calling a blind date?” Zhou Qilan sipped her coffee. “There is a surprise, not bad.”

“What?” Jiang Shaokai found that he couldn’t keep up with Zhou Qilan’s thought.

“You’re a surprise.” Zhou Qilan pointed to the face of Jiang Shaokai. “You are the most handsome man in the oriental people I have seen!”

Jiang Shaokai first groaned, then he laughed, “You are the most I have ever seen… special.” Yes, not strange, but special.

Zhou Qilan tilted her mouth and said, “My mom said, I need to introduce myself.”

Jiang Shaokai frowned. “Don’t you feel stiff?”

“So I didn’t show myself to the whole class as I attended the first day at primary school.” Zhou Qilan went to the guardrail on the riverside. “In fact, there isn’t particularly special for a person to introduce. Isn’t it a good idea to say that ‘I am who’? As for what interests and hobbies are, do you feel that it is no better than gradually getting along?”

After saying, she sat down, her long legs extended from the guardrail and hung to the riverside, and the toe almost touched the river.

She was just like coming out for a walk, leisurely and freely, just to be herself, and didn’t care what Jiang Shaokai would see her for the first time.

Jiang Shaokai stood on the side and looked at her, his lips slightly raised.

Zhou Qilan was different from other girls he knew, including Luo Xiaoxi. Even if they were not lovers, they could be friends.

He didn’t sick of her.

“Can I ask you a question?” Zhou Qilan leaned the fence and looked at Jiang Shaokai with a smile.

Jiang Shaokai nodded.

“You look so handsome, you don’t lack girls.” Zhou Qilan really couldn’t understand, “Why do you still need a blind date? Shouldn’t you have any hidden words? For example… actually, you are gay?”
