Shen Jintai stretched out his hand and stroked his hair, showing off his smooth forehead, and said: "Let's go, I'm sleepy."

They had been sitting there for quite some time.

Yan Qiuchi said: "Have you been too tired lately?"

Shen Jintai replied with a "Nn" and gave a glance at Yan Qiuchi, not saying anything else, then slowly got up. Yan Qiuchi remained sitting as he said: "Let's talk."

Shen Jintai's heart tightened. If he sits down and talk, he could be manipulated by Yan Qiuchi's means and be kissed again, like what had happened in the past and he wasn't sure if he could handle it. He turned his head and gave Yan Qiuchi a look, and asked with a smile: "Are you sure you want to talk?"

The disorderly hair that had been rustled up fell down one after another due to the wind, causing it to split in the middle, completely exposing Shen Jintai's face, giving his eyebrows an alluring vividness. His eyes were bright and clear, giving a stark contrast to the rest of his face as he looked directly at Yan Qiuchi. Yan Qiuchi's lips quivered and then stood up. This reaction satisfied Shen Jintai.

"It may take a while," Yan Qiuchi said: "I didn't expect you to leave so fast. I've sent Xiao Li a message and he's on the road now but will take some time to arrive."

Xiao Li was Yan Qiuchi's driver. Since they both drank, neither could drive back and with Shen Jintai celebrity status, it wasn't easy to find a substitute driver, so it was safer to use an acquaintance.

Shen Jintai nodded, and sat back down, continuing to lay on the railing and said: "Then I'll enjoy the scenery for a bit."

Today's scenes were heavy, and exhausting. In such a comfortable environment, after drinking a bit of wine while listening to a soothing melody, fatigue slowly crept over him. He had just tasted a bit of sweetness and now he was ready to be indifferent. He discovered that the more indifferent he acted, the more Yan Qiuchi couldn't guess what was in his mind, so he'll be more cautious and wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous.

He closed his eyes and felt sleepy. When he heard Yan Qiuchi talking on the phone, he opened his eyes in a daze. He found that he was covered with Yan Qiuchi's coat. His whole figure looked as if he was shrouded in an inexplicable coldness and sadness. He reached out his hand and rubbed his eyes then heard Yan Qiuchi said: "Just in time. Xiao Li is here so we can go."

Shen Jintai stood up and returned his coat to him. When he looked up at the sky, he said: "It looks cloudy."

"It'll probably rain tomorrow cooling down the whole country." Yan Qiuchi said as he put on his coat.

Shen Jintai let out a "Nn" and started walking out.

On the way back, he didn't say a word to Yan Qiuchi. They sat next to each other, with a wide distance between them, in complete silence. Shen Jintai wasn't sure if the silence was due to Yan Qiuchi cautiousness or if it was due to the driver being a third party. It seems that Yan Qiuchi would only expose his other side when they were together alone.

In the eyes of others, Yan Qiuchi was always clean, abstinent, and icy. Only he had insight on Yan Qiuchi's inner personality that made him feel inexplicably happy. The more indifferent he was, the sweeter he felt in his heart. It was truly a sight to behold.

Shen Jintai called Xiao Tang and after finishing his call said to Yan Qiuchi: "I asked Xiao Tang to pick me up south of the bridge so you can just let me get off here."

Xiao Li hurriedly said in front of him: "Yes, Mr. Shen." He was Yan Qiuchi's full-time driver but he didn't have many opportunities to drive Shen Jintai and he was also aware of the rumors regarding his boss and him.
