After having dinner, Yun Feiyang sat for a while before he got up and went back to the hotel.
It was getting dark, so An Ruo went to take a shower and planned to work for a bit before going to sleep.
In distant Country A, Tang Yuchen was standing outside a seaside villa when his cellphone rang, signaling the arrival of a photo message.
Upon opening the image, he looked at it once, and a trace of a cold smile curved the corners of his mouth.
Dialing a number, he said flatly, "Book me the next flight, I need to go to City G."
An Ruo, this time, let’s see where you can run.
The next afternoon, after settling his affairs, Yun Feiyang went to see her and casually joined her for dinner.
"An Ruo, I heard the riverside scenery here is quite nice. Many people go for walks by the river in the evening. How about we go too?" he suggested with a smile after dinner.
An Ruo thought since he had come to City G, she should indeed take him around.
"Sure, I’ll first take you to try some of the local snacks here, then we can enjoy the night views by the river."
"You know about the local snacks here?" the man asked, surprised.
"Of course, I have been wandering around looking for good food all day when I am free."
"Then I’m in for a treat."
An Ruo picked up her wallet and waved at him with a smile, "Let’s go, it’s the perfect time."
The two left the house, and since Yun Feiyang hadn’t driven there, they took a taxi.
First, An Ruo took him to eat the famous local snacks. As it got completely dark, she then took him for a walk by the river.
It was early summer, and the riverside scenery was beautiful. The surface of the river reflected the twinkling neon lights, dreamlike and fantastic.
Walking along the road, they enjoyed the breeze and chatted contentedly; the scene was harmonious.
A little girl selling roses came up to them with her basket and naively smiled at Yun Feiyang, "Big brother, buy a flower for your girlfriend."
An Ruo couldn’t help but laugh silently; she had also experienced this sort of thing.
Catching a glimpse of her smile unintentionally, Yun Feiyang found her laughter beautiful, particularly her bright eyes, which were like dazzling stars in the night.
"Alright," he said with a smile as he pulled out his wallet and bought a rose.
"Thank you, big brother," the little girl said, waving at them happily as she moved on to her next potential customer.
An Ruo was speechless: "You really bought one."
"You see, it’s not easy for the little kid to earn money; it’s only right for me to Keep reading on NovelHub - where stories come alive! Since I bought this flower, I might as well give it to you," the man said, smiling shyly as he handed her the flower.
"Thank you," An Ruo said, accepting it with a smile, holding the flower with a feeling of being more delicate than the flower itself.
Not far away, in a black sedan, Tang Yuchen was watching them with a cold look, his lips twirling into a sneer.
Pushing open the car door, he elongated his legs and walked toward them.
"What a coincidence to run into each other here."
Startled by his calm tone, both of them changed expressions.
Turning toward the voice, An Ruo’s face turned pale when she saw the man approaching them.
With a dark gaze fixated on her, Tang Yuchen spoke with a tone light with humor, "Darling, I’ve been searching everywhere for you, thinking you might be dead. I’m genuinely happy to find you’re still in this world."
Stepping forward, Yun Feiyang stood between An Ruo and Tang Yuchen, looking at him coldly, and mocked, "Tang Yuchen, I really underestimated you; you’ve been putting on a show for me all along."
It was deliberate that he believed An Ruo was dead and pretended to be ill.
