"If you are willing to marry me, how can I not be happy soon?" Qin Hanze looked at his watch before walking to the front of Wen Zhizhi. He crouched down and took her right hand in his palm.

"Zhizhi, don't worry. No matter what decision I make, I will follow your advice. After all, you are my most beloved woman.

Looking at the deep love in the man's eyes, Wen Zhizhi was so happy that she broke into a smile. The happiness coming from the bottom of her heart made Qin Hanze momentarily blank out.

"Alright, it's getting late. Hurry up and go to work, don't be late." Wen Zhizhi carefully reminded him, pulling her right hand away from his and pulling it back.

Qin Hanze stood up, stroking the ends of her hair, and said in a gentle tone, "Un, obediently wait for me at home. "It's my turn to be on duty tonight. It might be a bit late, so if you're sleepy, go to bed. You can order takeout for dinner. Don't starve yourself, okay?"

Wenzhi nodded and took the initiative to stand up. She helped Qin Hanze put on his coat and watched him leave.

It felt good.

Wen Zhizhi sincerely sighed in her heart. Waiting for the person she loved to come back, wasn't that something filled with anticipation and happiness?

Qin Hanze's car disappeared from her sight, and Wen Zhizhi closed the door and returned to the sofa to watch TV.

As too many things had happened recently, he fell asleep after a while. The TV show was still on, while Lu Li was quietly sleeping on the sofa.

The night was getting cold, and a cold wind blew through the window, causing her body to tremble slightly.

It wasn't until the latter half of the night that Qin Hanze's car stopped at the entrance.

Just as he got off the car and saw that the lights in the living room were still on, a trace of unknown emotion surged through Qin Hanze's heart.

No matter how late it is, there will always be a light for you when you get home.

These words caused many lonely people to yearn for and be infatuated with him. And for people like Qin Hanze, it was the same feeling.

Had she not slept yet?

Qin Hanze thought to himself as he took out his key to open the door and walked in.

Seeing the curtain by the window being blown up by the wind, and the cold air invading the room, and then seeing the figure on the sofa, Qin Hanze frowned in anger.

"Zhi Zhi, Zhi Zhi …" Qin Hanze walked over to her side and called out her name, but he didn't get any response.

Reaching out a hand to her forehead, the scorching temperature caused Qin Hanze to panic for a few seconds.

"Why are you so careless? You can catch a cold like this too." It sounded like a reproachful tone, but it was full of heartache, yet Qin Hanze himself didn't notice it.

Seeing her warm up face, Qin Hanze immediately carried her back to her room. He turned on the air conditioner and adjusted the temperature. He took out an ice pack from the fridge and placed it on her forehead, then used a towel to wipe her face.

The white towel caressed her cheek, and her long eyelashes trembled occasionally, as if in protest against the towel's unpleasantness.

The pink-lipped woman mumbled something she couldn't make out, which made Qin Hanze feel helpless. However, right now, Wen Zhizhi looked even cuter than usual.

Qin Hanze sat by the head of the bed for a while. Seeing that it was about time, he took off the ice bag and used the warmth from the back of his hand to check if the temperature had gone down.

Wen Zhizhi felt the coldness on her forehead suddenly disappear. She immediately reacted and grabbed Qin Hanze's right hand, saying, "So hot, don't take away my ice cube!"

His coquettish tone left Qin Hanze at a loss whether to laugh or to cry. In a trance, Qin Hanze heard someone calling him.

"Big brother, big brother, wake up!"

Qin Hanze instantly opened his eyes, realizing that he was almost submerged in the bathtub. He immediately sat up straight.

"Phew." He let out a long sigh of relief, faking the surprise just now.

After releasing the water from the bathtub, Qin Hanze took the bathrobe and wrapped it around himself before walking out.

When they returned to the room, Wen Zhizhi's body temperature hadn't even dropped yet. Qin Hanze found the medicine cabinet at home and took out a few pieces of cold medicine, preparing to give them to her. But Wen Zhizhi wasn't obedient at all.

"Obedient, Zhizhi, quickly take the medicine." Although Qin Hanze's tone was gentle, the coldness in his tone carried an unapproachable chill.

Wen Zhizhi shook her head, but her eyes were still closed.

"I don't want any medicine, it's too bitter!"

Qin Hanze was resisted by her, causing his heart to lose its patience. She took a few gulps of water and stuffed the pill into her mouth, then held it to her mouth and swallowed it.

"Cough, cough …" Wen Zhizhi violently coughed a few times. Because she was weak, she fell into a deep sleep not long after.

Qin Hanze wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth. With a cold glint in his eyes, he pressed down the bedside lamp, causing the room to fall into darkness.

Lying next to Wen Zhizhi, Qin Hanze would always have a different kind of feeling in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what it was. He only fell asleep when the sky began to brighten.

Wen Zhizhi slept all the way through the afternoon because of the medicine's effects and her body's weakness. When she woke up, she saw Qin Hanze sleeping by her side. She couldn't help but let her imagination run wild again.

What time did he come back last night? Shouldn't I be on the sofa?
