The night was not beautiful. There were no stars, only a crescent moon hanging in the sky, illuminating the dark night. There was a gentle breeze tonight. It wasn't cold, but very comfortable.

Anran stopped at the entrance of the hotel and stared at su Yicheng. She didn't say anything, but the corners of her mouth were curved into a beautiful smile.

Su Yicheng turned to look at her, and seeing that she wasn't leaving, he raised his eyebrows and asked, ” “What's wrong?”

Anran only smiled and didn't say anything. Then, when su Yicheng was frowning in confusion, she suddenly stepped forward, put her arms around his neck, and took the initiative to kiss him.

Su Yicheng immediately recovered from his shock. Kissing had always been his specialty. With one hand around her waist and the other on the back of her head, he deepened the kiss.

By the time su Yicheng let go of her again, Anran was already panting and leaning against his chest, and he wasn't any better off. His chest was also heaving up and down because of the kiss just now.

The two of them hugged each other for a while, and after their breaths had calmed down, su Yicheng whispered in her ear, ” let's go back? ”

An ran leaned against his chest and listened to his heartbeat, which was slowly calming down. She especially enjoyed this quiet moment.

“Wuwuwuwu”

Not far away, a ferry blew its horn. In the night, a ferry with flashing neon lights slowly sailed toward the center of the river.

Anran raised her head from his arms and looked at ye du, who was not far away. She then turned to look at the man in front of her and said with a smile, ” “Let's go to the ferry.”

Su Yicheng was stunned for a moment, then he immediately smiled, nodded, and said, ” “Alright,” he said.

The two of them sat on the fence of the ferry. In fact, they were in a very sorry state. Their hair, which they had specially done before getting off work, was now blown into a mess by the river Wind. She was wearing su Yicheng's suit jacket, and the chest area of the evening gown inside was black because of the red wine, so it probably couldn't be washed off. She turned to look at su Yicheng. The river breeze ruffled his neatly combed hair, but it made him look a little unruly. His tie was slightly loose, and the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up. He didn't look as serious as he usually did, but he looked more sunny and forthright.

There weren't many people on the ferry at night, and the number of people on the entire ferry could be counted with one hand. The ferry sailed to the center of the river, and when he turned to look at the lights and neon lights on both sides of the river, he had an indescribable feeling. This kind of feeling could not be experienced on an ordinary bridge.

“I heard that the government is preparing to build the Qingjiang bridge.” Anran said. She was afraid that there would be fewer and fewer opportunities to take the ferry like this in the future.

“Yes, I have the intention.” Su Yicheng nodded. The construction of the bridge was necessary. Not only could it enhance the connection between the two cities, but it could also drive the economic development of the two cities.

Anran nodded. She looked at the ripples on the river surface caused by the Ferry's passing, then turned to look at the man next to her. She slowed down and rested her head on his shoulder, and he naturally spread out his arms to wrap them around her body. Everything was so natural, as if he had done it a thousand times.

The gentle breeze caressed her face, and an ran could hear the sound of running water under the boat. Her eyelids drooped slightly. It seemed like a long night had passed. It was still early, but it felt like a long time had passed. She was also very tired. All she wanted now was to have a good sleep.

In a daze, Anran's eyes closed, and she leaned into su Yicheng's arms. She slept peacefully with a smile on her face.

Su Yicheng lowered his head to look at the person in his arms, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a beautiful arc. He shook his head slightly and helped her adjust her position to be more comfortable so that she could sleep more peacefully.

Anran didn't know how she fell asleep, nor did she know how su Yicheng had carried her home. When she woke up again, it was already midnight. She was lying in her bedroom, and the light at the head of the bed was on, but su Yicheng was not in the room.

She woke up groggily, but she was still very sleepy. She rubbed her eyes with her hands and yawned delicately. She rolled out of bed. She was still wearing the evening dress she had worn that night, but the wine stain on her chest had completely dried. The dark black color had blended into the fabric of the dress, and she was afraid that it really couldn't be washed off. Anran suddenly felt a little regretful. She didn't wear this dress often. Back then, she had bought it for a social event like tonight, and it had cost her a lot of money. Now that it had been scrapped, it wasn't that she didn't feel bad.

She sniffed the faint smell of alcohol on her body, opened the closet, took her pajamas from inside, and went into the bathroom. When she came out of the bathroom, su Yicheng still hadn't returned to his room. She thought that he might still be busy in the study, so Anran grabbed her hair with a towel and opened the door to go out. The light in the living room was on, but no one was there. There was a cup on the coffee table, which was still half-filled with water.

He turned around and walked to the study. When he pushed the door open, it was dark and silent. There was no one in sight. This time, an ran was confused, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly. Where could su Yicheng have gone so late at night?

With doubts in her mind, she left the study and was about to go to the bedroom to get her phone and call him when the door lock was turned. Su Yicheng opened the door and entered. When he saw Anran, who had already woken up, he was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and asked, ” why are you up? ”

Anran looked at him. He was still wearing the same shirt he wore at the reception. His tie hung loosely, and the top two buttons of his collar were unbuttoned. His arms were still at the same height as when he was on the ferry.

“Did you just go out?” Anran asked with a smile.

Su Yicheng tiredly pulled down the tie around his neck and casually threw it on the sofa. As he unbuttoned his shirt, he said, ” “I met an acquaintance at the entrance of the neighborhood on my way back. We sat together for a while and just sent him down.”

Anran didn't mind. She went up to pick up the tie on the sofa and took the shirt he had taken off. Seeing how tired he was, she felt a little sorry for him and said, ” “Hurry up and take a shower. It's getting late and you still have to work tomorrow.”

Su Yicheng stared at her for a long time, then nodded with a smile and turned to enter the bedroom.

Anran watched his back disappear behind the door, and a smile appeared on her lips. She seemed to have vaguely sensed the change in her heart, and it seemed that she really liked him. This thought made her a little dumbfounded. It seemed too fast. They had only known each other for half a month!

Anran sat on the sofa and thought back to everything that had happened since she got to know him. It seemed that it was too easy for her to fall in love with him. He was too outstanding, and he was too gentle and too considerate to her. It was too easy and simple for a man like him to fall in love with her, wasn't it?

With a faint smile, he put away the tie and clothes in his hands and prepared to put them into the washing machine. Looking at the teacups on the coffee table, he instinctively reached out to collect them. He got up and walked to the kitchen. He poured the extra water out of the sink, but when he was about to wash the cups, he suddenly froze.

An ran stared blankly at the red lipstick on the mouth of the glass and forgot what to do.

Was that a woman he just met in the neighborhood? Why would a woman come to su Yicheng so late at night?

She couldn't help but think about it, and there was a complicated feeling in her heart.
