Qiu Xing hid in the office and stayed there for almost an hour before coming out again.

“It’s fine.” His expression was calm and he seemed to really not care that he was missing out on the first Valentine’s Day. He also gave a solution. “We can celebrate Valentine’s Day in advance or postpone it by one day.” 

Xie Yang suppressed his smile and nodded. “Okay, it is up to you.”

“Yes, let’s arrange it like this.” Qiu Xing turned sideways like he was going to head back to his office. Then halfway through, he headed toward Xie Yang again. “Then arrange it this way.”

Xie Yang was very obedient. “Yes, arrange it this way. I have no objections.”

“……” Qiu Xing asked again, “You won’t be unhappy?” 

“Of course not.” Xie Yang’s tone was a bit guilty. “After all, it is because I have to work that we can’t have a good Valentine’s Day. You are the one who should be unhappy. We can’t have the candlelight dinner, the date or the little surprise at night… These losses are all because of me. It is my fault. I’m sorry.”

Qiu Xing’s face turned slightly green when he heard this but he still showed strong support and even appeased Xie Yang. “I don’t blame you. These things… we can do them all in advance.”

“Yes, it can be done in advance. Although you should be preparing for surgery or having the surgery so you might not have the time to do this with me in advance.”

“……”

Xie Yang was compassionate. “It doesn’t matter. We can make it a bit earlier. Christmas is also a good day. Why don’t we spend Christmas as Valentine’s Day?”

Qiu Xing paused before his frown relaxed.

Xie Yang smiled. “You shouldn’t be hospitalized at that time. We can celebrate and then move to the hospital. Is it possible?”

“Of course.” Qiu Xing responded immediately. Then he probably felt he was too eager and quickly covered it up. “Since you asked then so be it.” 

Xie Yang nodded again and glanced at the office door behind Qiu Xing. “Are you busy?”

“…I’m almost done.” Qiu Xing turned sideways again.

Xie Yang thoughtfully told him, “Call me if you need help.”

Qiu Xing stopped again. He looked back at Xie Yang before striding over and kissing him. Then he really entered the office. After confirming that Qiu Xing wouldn’t come out, Xie Yang laughed and turned on the phone calendar. He made a small reminder for Christmas and moved his gaze to the day after Christmas. 

December 26th was Qiu Xing’s birthday. According to the information provided by Liu Sha, Qiu Xing hadn’t celebrated his birthday in at least seven years. For Qiu Xing, birthdays were like a reminder.

Last year they hadn’t yet established a relationship, so regretfully Qiu Xing’s birthday wasn’t celebrated. This year, Xie Yang hoped that Qiu Xing’s birthday was different.

Feng Qinglin had been gone since his grandmother’s death. Then on the weekend, he suddenly found them at their new home in Dingcheng Garden. Xie Yang saw that Feng Qinglin had lost a lot of weight and his hair had grown a lot. His beard also wasn’t shaved properly. Xie Yang looked him up and down and asked, “Do you go mining?”
