After going bankrupt, the school beauty I was dating became my boss.

"Okay." Gu Yannian did as instructed.

After the man closed his eyes, Su Yanxi immediately took advantage of his inattention to break free from his embrace and return to her seat.

Gu Yannian opened his dark eyes, took a deep breath, looked at Su Yanxi who had already sat back in her seat, his jaw tightened, and stared at her with burning eyes: "Xixi! You lied to me."

His voice was deep and hoarse.

Faced with the man's accusation, Su Yanxi covered her mouth and giggled, "What did I lie to you about? Didn't I just hug you and kiss you? How did I lie to you? You can't falsely accuse me."

He just kissed me and then ran away.

How could that be considered lying to him?

The more Su Yanxi thought about it, the bigger her smile became.

Seeing the little woman flirt with him and then run away, looking so playful, Gu Yan's eyes darkened: "Xi Xi, you can't flirt with me and then run away."

"What else does Yan Nian want to do to me?" Su Yanxi tilted her head and asked this question in a teasing tone.

"You know perfectly well what I'm asking." Gu Yannian gritted her teeth, pressed her tongue against the inside of her mouth, and her eyes were dark and deep.

She wasn't like this before.

That well-behaved and shy girl has changed in the end.

These days, she's incredibly bold; she even dared to flirt with him and then run away.

"Yan Nian, didn't you flirt with me just now?" Su Yanxi asked with a smile in her almond-shaped eyes. "Isn't it nice that we're returning the favor? I didn't do anything wrong, did I?"

"Very good." Gu Yannian exhaled a breath of hot air.

There's absolutely nothing we can do about her.

"That's good, let's continue eating." After saying this, Su Yanxi deliberately stopped looking at him and lowered her head to drink her soup.

After taking a couple of sips, she glanced at Gu Yannian across from her and saw that he was taking deep breaths, seemingly trying to suppress the heat in his body, but his face was still very red.

It seems the effect is rather minimal.

Su Yanxi's smile deepened, and she deliberately said, "Yan Niansheng's soup is so delicious."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yannian looked up and met the little woman's bright, star-like eyes. The slight heat that had just subsided climbed back onto his face, and almost instantly, his face turned bright red.

Looking at the man across from her, whose face was flushed red from her teasing, Su Yanxi felt a surge of sweetness in her heart.

So this is what it feels like to flirt with a man.

It's quite fun.

In the past, she was just a naive young girl, and every time they went on a date, Gu Yannian would tease her, and she would be the one blushing... Now the tables have turned.

This feeling is actually quite nice.

Su Yanxi was in a good mood and ate more than usual for dinner.

The two didn't leave Xijiang Restaurant until 9:30 p.m.

Gu Yannian looked up at the night sky, then looked down at the petite woman beside him and suggested, "Xixi, how about we go for a walk at Jiang University?"

It's good to take a walk to digest after eating.

“Okay.” Su Yanxi nodded in agreement.

She attended Jiangnan University.

Jiangda University is not far from where they are now, about half an hour away, and they have visited many places in this area before.

Walking along the sidewalk to the right from Xijiang Restaurant, there's a beautiful lotus pond and a small flower park...

As the gentle evening breeze blew, the two walked side by side.

At this time of day, there are quite a few people out for a walk.

The two walked slowly, passing by the places they had visited before. When they passed a small sugar figurine shop, Gu Yannian went in and bought two small sugar figurines.

Gu Yannian handed her a sugar figurine: "Here you go."

"Thank you, Yan Nian," Su Yanxi said with a smile.

Gu Yannian didn't eat the other sugar figurine; she just held it in her hand.

Su Yanxi used to love eating sugar figurines from this shop, and he would buy her some every time he passed by.

Su Yanxi took a bite, and the sweetness instantly spread in her mouth, the sweet feeling spreading directly to her heart.

Time passed by, and gradually, fewer people were on the road, but the two remained in high spirits.

The two revisited many of the places they had visited years ago.

As they walked and stopped, the two silently reminisced about the past.

When they reached a lakeside, Su Yanxi pointed to a stone statue in front of them, which was a famous stone sculpture in Jiangcheng.

She spoke softly, "Yan Nian, do you still remember this place?"

"Of course I remember," Gu Yannian replied softly.

After the man finished speaking, Su Yanxi continued, "I remember you set off fireworks for me all night, on the night of my birthday party. Yan Nian, do you know that the fireworks were especially beautiful that night? I've remembered them for many years."

Even now, she hasn't forgotten.

That night marked the beginning of her feelings for him, but she didn't realize it at the time. She was convinced that she still hated him until he left, at which point she finally understood her true feelings for him.

When did I start to fall for him?

It was on this very night.

Su Yanxi's thoughts raced, as if she had returned to that night, to the tall, slender young man with incredibly beautiful features under the night sky adorned with fireworks.

Her youthful face was reflected in those eyes.

Amidst the fireworks, she heard him whisper in her ear, "Su Yanxi, happy birthday. May you have peace and joy every year, and a carefree life."

Such words are so moving.

Su Yanxi, who had been desperately trying to stay true to herself, was completely captivated at this moment.

Every year on her birthday thereafter, she would remember that scene.

Listening to the young woman recount the past scene by scene, and hearing her say that she had remembered it for many years, Gu Yannian felt as if someone had pricked her heart with a needle.

Gu Yannian reached out, took her hand, and held it tightly in his palm. He whispered, "Xixi, I have never forgotten you either."

He still remembered kissing her amidst the sound of fireworks.

Even now, he still vividly remembers the expression on the girl's face from back then.

Upon hearing this, Su Yanxi smiled and said, "I know."

In this relationship, which of the two people deeply involved can easily extricate themselves?

Even though he had been gone for many years, she still couldn't forget him.

They both gave each other their true feelings.

Su Yanxi gazed at the campfire not far away, her voice very soft, "You're here, and I'm still here, it's so good."

The evening breeze carried away her voice.

That night, the two walked through many places they had been to before, and neither of them mentioned the years they had been apart.

As they walked under the shade of trees outside Jiangda University, Su Yanxi suddenly joked, "Yan Nian, if we encounter robbers, we'll only be able to rely on you to save our lives."

As she walked down this path, she suddenly remembered something that had happened before.

She happened to be walking along this path to the library on the west side of the school when a few young men with brightly dyed hair came towards her and blocked her way. Later, Gu Yannian happened to pass by and led her away...

Hearing her suddenly make this joke, Gu Yannian looked at the road and reminisced with her about the past.
