"Alright." Suddenly, she was like a butterfly dancing in the wild flowers.

Xiao Yiting stared at her cheerful back, and a smile flashed across his lips that she would not notice.

After Lin Qingyan picked a bunch of small flowers, she said happily, "I want to bring them all home and raise them well!"

Xiao Yiting stood on top of a large rock and gazed at the scenery in the distance.

Lin Qingyan followed his gaze and looked at the green dai in the distance, sighing with emotion: "This place can really make people forget their troubles!"

"So you lost your troubles?" He turned his head and his eyes fell on her.

Lin Qingyan roughly understood the reason why he brought her here, and answered without answering the question: "Xiao Yiting, thank you for everything you've done for me."

"Thank me?" Xiao Yiting did not mind, "What is there to thank?"

Lin Qingyan turned her head and looked at him, saying each word sincerely: "Thank you for choosing to help me when I'm at my most helpless; for helping me take care of all my troubles; and also thank you for appearing in time when I was looking for you …"

Her words caused him to be stunned.

He had to admit that he was moved.

She was moved by her sincere words, her focused gaze, or her entire person …

Their gazes met, and they were speechless for a long time.

Lin Qingyan thought about what happened last night, her lips moved, but she did not say anything.

She wanted to tell him that what had happened last night had been of her own free will.

However, when she thought about the scandals that she had gotten herself into, the impulse to burst out and be defeated by the inferiority complex in her heart, there was only a single sentence left: Lin Qingyan, stop thinking, you are not worthy. All you have to do is to take what you need to cooperate with each other.

Xiao Yiting realized that his mind had drifted away and he quickly pulled it out. He let out a cold laugh, "Lin Qingyan, your acting skills still need a lot more practice."

"Acting?"

"Between us, other than playing on the spot, what else do we have?" The corner of his mouth twitched in disdain, his eyes filled with mockery.

The warmth in her eyes disappeared, and her voice lightly echoed, "You're right. Between us, there is nothing else other than playing along."

"It's good that you know this." Even he didn't know why he had bothered to clarify.

Isn't this just trying to cover it up?

Xiao Yiting, what kind of feelings do you have for this woman in front of you?

Was it sympathy, or did he like it?

No, never!

In her heart, other than Zhong Fuyu, there were no other women!

Since she was just going to relax, Lin Qingyan didn't want her mood to continue to drop.

She held her face, looked into the distance, and shouted: "Lin Qingyan, you have to be strong, you have to be brave!"

When Xiao Yiting heard her cheering himself up, the corner of his mouth rose up involuntarily.

"Sit down."

Lin Qingyan turned and saw him sitting on the floor.

She smiled and sat down: "I didn't expect Young Master Xiao to be so grounded!"

He laughed off her teasing.

"Lin Qingyan, promise me, in the future, don't do anything stupid." His tone was light, but it was overbearing.

She looked at him thoughtfully.

This man always gave her a sense of estrangement.

Even so, she told herself to get rid of her feelings and focus on her revenge.

Just as she had told Soong Yueyue, she was the moon and stars in the sky. In short, he was not her.

She looked into the distance and smiled, "I've been foolish once, so I won't be stupid again. Besides, I haven't even avenged my great vengeance, so how can I die?"

"Revenge is one thing, survival is the most important thing." Xiao Yiting looked at her and spoke bluntly: "Yesterday and tomorrow do not belong to us, what belongs to us is the present. Regarding the pain of the past, let it float with the wind, don't let it hinder your advance, the courage to continue living!"

"Sometimes, it's not the shadows that follow you, it's you who won't let yourself go."

After Lin Qingyan understood what he meant, she looked at him for a long time.

Only now did he realize that even a man with a cold face had a warm and exquisite side to him.

He was actually advising her and comforting her.

"Actually, words of comfort are the most powerless." she said pessimistically.

"If you think I'm just trying to comfort you, then give up." Xiao Yiting jumped down from the boulder and left.

Seeing him walk far away, Lin Qingyan looked down at the ground and frowned: "Don't go!"

He had been carried by someone when he first came up, so he hadn't thought about it at all.

Now that someone was walking away, she couldn't back down.

Seeing that Xiao Yiting did not have any intention to stop, she became anxious and closed her eyes as she jumped down.

"Aiya!"

Unsurprisingly, his entire body fell to the ground, accompanied by the sound of pain.

Xiao Yiting turned his head upon hearing her, and saw her fall to the ground, and walked over expressionlessly.

Just as Lin Qingyan was about to stand up, she felt a sharp pain from her ankle.

She frowned, not daring to move.

"To the foot?" he asked.

"Right." She endured the pain, her heart filled with resentment towards him.

Without saying a word, Xiao Yiting picked her up.

"You …" When Lin Qingyan reacted, she was already in his embrace.

After putting her in the passenger seat, he bent down, picked up one of her sprained feet, and gently stretched it out for her.

The moment his hand touched her foot, her face suddenly turned red, and her heart felt as if it was being teased. It was so itchy that it continuously throbbed for him.

She pressed her hand to her heart, reminding herself not to.

However, it didn't seem to help.

"Are you feeling better?" The sound of his question was like the sound of a cello, reaching deep into his heart.

Her face burned, and she nodded shyly.

Xiao Yiting put her feet back on the car seat.

Seeing her drooping head, he immediately leaned over.

When he got close to it, he was so shocked that even Lin Qingyan's heart stopped beating.

"You … What are you doing? "

His face was very close.

Her face was already hot enough to burn a piece of cake.

He stared at her tense expression, the corner of his mouth curving up. "You don't think I'm going to kiss you?"

Her taunting voice made her feel embarrassed. "No way …"

Then the sound of a seat belt being buckled.

So he was buckling up her seat belt...

When someone returned to their seat, she gasped for breath, touched her chest, and silently cursed herself for being so useless.

It had to be said that Xiao Yiting bringing her out on this trip had greatly improved her mood.

In the afternoon, she went to work at Xiao's as usual.

Her colleagues were clearly looking at her differently.

Respected and a bit odd.

She did not take it to heart and continued doing what she was supposed to do.

When they almost got off work, Xiao Yiting sent him a text message as usual.

[There's a meal tonight, you can go back first.]

[Good.]

She immediately replied.

Ye Zichen put down his phone and couldn't help but think of someone who was drunk last night and kept shouting, "Rich …"
