Like you in the sun

The next day, Li Xiang was sitting in front of his computer working when he received a call from the security office: "Girl? Looking for me? Let her in."

An Xin and other colleagues turned to look at Li Xiang.

Lin Fanyin walked to the door of the office and said, "Hello, I'm looking for Captain Li."

Li Xiang stood up, walked towards Lin Fanyin and asked, "It's you! What's the matter?"

Lin Fanyin: "Thank you for yesterday. I'm here to return your clothes. I hope I won't disturb your work."

Li Xiang: “It’s okay.”

Lin Fanyin looked at Li Xiang and asked shyly, "Can I treat you to dinner tonight?"

Li Xiang: "Maybe we have time later."

Lin Fanyin handed Li Xiang a pink thermos cup and said, "My uncle said that if you drink ginger and sugar water after getting caught in the rain, you won't catch a cold. I made this myself."

Li Xiang: "Thank you, but we can't accept it. We have regulations here."

Lin Fanyin replied somewhat disappointedly: "Sorry to bother you!"

When Li Xiang returned to the office, her colleagues all teased her, saying, "She's so beautiful!"

"Can I treat you to a meal? Captain Li, sure! Something's going on..."

Li Xiang: "Why are you guys so gossipy? Have you finished your work?"

An Xin drove out of the city bureau's gate, suddenly stopped the car, nudged Li Xiang, who was reading documents in the passenger seat, and gestured for him to look out the window.

When Li Xiang saw Lin Fanyin, he got out of the car and walked over.

Li Xiang: "Have you been waiting here?"

Lin Fanyin nodded repeatedly and said, "I'm sorry~ I know I shouldn't bother you anymore. But I have a question for you?"

Li Xiang: "Well, ask whatever questions you have."

Lin Fanyin: "Are you married?"

Li Xiang seemed to have never expected Lin Fanyin to ask him this question. He was a little speechless and said, "Uh~ I... didn't."

Lin Fanyin continued to ask: "Do you have a girlfriend?"

Li Xiang: “No.”

Lin Fanyin's heart was beating like a deer. She rubbed her hands holding the thermos cup back and forth, looking at Li Xiang and asked, "Can I be your friend?"

Li Xiang: "Yes, sure."

Lin Fanyin: "Can you tell me your phone number?"

Li Xiang: “1 3……..”

Lin Fanyin saved Li Xiang's phone number, happily handed the thermos cup to Li Xiang again and said with a smile: "We are friends now, it won't be against the rules if you accept it.

A little gift from me, this is the first ginger sugar water I cooked. If you drink it, you won’t catch a cold.”

Li Xiang looked at the sunlight shining on Lin Fanyin's pure face, her brilliant smile, her clear eyes revealing anticipation, her long hair blown by the breeze, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Li Xiang returned to the car, and An Xin joked: "I'm interested in you! You're pretty, really pretty. A hero saving a beauty..."

Li Xiang interrupted, "Tsk! Let's go."

After the visit, Li Xiang and An Xin returned to the car to rest. They leaned back on the seats tiredly and picked up the cup to drink water.

When she saw Lin Fanyin's cup, she put down her own cup and picked up the pink thermos cup.

He took a gulp and looked into the thermos cup in disbelief.

Seeing this, An Xin asked, "What are you looking at?"

Li Xiang swallowed it with difficulty and replied, "It tastes good!"

After saying that, he handed the cup to An Xin, who pushed it away and said, "No...no, no, no, this is a gift from the girl."

Li Xiang held up the cup and continued to gesture to An Xin, "Try it, it's delicious."

An Xin took the cup, took a sip, opened the car window, and spat out the liquid.

Inside the Chen Group, Chen Yang was very dissatisfied when he saw the jewelry designs of the designers. The board of directors rejected them again, saying that they were inconsistent with the main concept of high-end elegance.

He looked at his watch, then got up and drove out of the company to pick up Lin Fanyin.

Lin Fanyin got into the car and said, "Uncle, I want to take some night photos."

Chen Yang: "Okay, uncle will go with you."

Lin Fanyin: “Yeah.”

Chen Yang: "But uncle is not with you, you must go home before ten o'clock in the evening!"

Lin Fanyin: "I know, Uncle, you've said it many times! I remember it!"

Lin Fanyin was happily taking pictures, and Chen Yang would help her find angles and adjust the lighting.

In fact, Chen Yang is not proficient in photography, but Lin Fanyin likes it, so he is willing to accompany Lin Fanyin.

Perhaps it was because Lin Fanyin's parents divorced when she was young, and he gave her love and care as a compensatory measure.

Maybe he was putting himself in the role of Lin Fanyin's father?

Or maybe Chen Yang doesn’t have his own children, and Lin Fanyin comes to fill his vacancy?

At this moment, Chen Yang already had the answer in his heart. He loved Lin Fanyin more than anything else.

On the way back, Lin Fanyin took out a beautifully wrapped tie from her bag and handed it to Chen Yang, saying, "Uncle, this is for you. This is the prize money for my ink painting that won first place. It's my first pot of gold in life."

Chen Yang was naturally very happy after receiving the gift.

Lin Fanyin tossed and turned in bed, holding her cell phone and looking at Li Xiang's phone number, wanting to call him, but she was a little nervous and thought a lot about how to start the conversation after the call was connected.

Finally, he sent a message to Li Xiang: "Hello, I'm Lin Fanyin."

A moment later, the phone rang, and Lin Fanyin saw Li Xiang's reply: "Hello, I'm Li Xiang."

Lin Fanyin was lying on the bed, dancing happily and laughing with excitement like a pig.

After the two of them contacted each other for a while, they finally agreed on a time and place to meet.

Lin Fanyin was very nervous and excited about her first date. She tried on several sets of clothes in front of the mirror and carefully selected a light-colored long skirt.

Seeing Li Xiang coming, Lin Fanyin's lips curled up into an admiring smile, little did she know that she had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

Li Xiang said, "Sorry for the long wait."

Lin Fanyin: "Not bad. I've been asking you for so long and you finally have time this time."

The evening glow set off the setting sun, and the afterglow shone on the mountains. Lin Fanyin and Li Xiang walked along the stream.

Lin Fanyin, who is pure, beautiful, graceful and full of energy, always makes Li Xiang look at her involuntarily.

The two were intoxicated by the beautiful scenery of the mountains and fields, and before they knew it, it was getting dark.

Lin Fanyin answered the call from Chen Yang and said, "Hello, uncle, I got it."

After hanging up the phone, he said, "Captain Li, I'm going home."

Li Xiang: "I'll take you back."

Along the way, Lin Fanyin kept stealing glances at Li Xiang from time to time, as if she was nervous and had something to say.

After Li Xiang looked over, Lin Fanyin quickly looked out the window, but her hands clutching her skirt had already exposed her inner thoughts.

Li Xiang smiled slightly. In fact, he was also extremely nervous, otherwise he would not have held the steering wheel so tightly.

When they arrived at the door of Chen Yang's villa, Lin Fanyin said, "Thank you."

Li Xiang: “You’re welcome.”

Lin Fanyin's heartbeat quickened as she asked, "Captain Li, I like you. Can you be my boyfriend?"

Li Xiang was somewhat surprised and stunned by Lin Fanyin's sudden confession and replied, "Ah?"

Lin Fanyin blushed and looked at Li Xiang, waiting for an answer.

Li Xiang: "Lin Fanyin, you are too young."

Lin Fanyin's face was filled with visible disappointment, and she was about to cry. But she pretended to be calm and replied, "You don't like me? It doesn't matter! We can still be friends."

Li Xiang: "No... No... I like you. I liked you the first time I saw you."

Lin Fanyin: "Then I will call you big brother from now on."

On the way back, Li Xiang couldn't help but smile as he drove and recalled Lin Fanyin's confession.

The evening breeze blowing in from the car window seems particularly gentle.
