It was still snowing heavily outside. Since the restaurant where they to plan to meet at was next to the hotel, Shen Jintai and Yan Qiuchi didn't take a car. The wind and snow became a good cover as the passersby were in a hurry.

Shen Jintai had his mask on and came out of the hotel with Yan Qiuchi. As soon as he came out, he was hit by the cold wind that blasted on his face. Mixed with the snow, the feeling was extremely cold. The wind and snow were so strong that he became worried about the Yan couple's safety.

When they arrived at the restaurant, he immediately called Mrs. Yan. The call quickly connected and Mrs. Yan said: "You've already arrived? It'll be about ten more minutes for us. It's rush hour right now and there's a traffic jam that's quite serious."

"Just tell the driver to drive carefully and don't worry about rushing here." Shen Jintai said. After hanging up, he walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out. The restaurant had a very good view as it was on the 30th floor. Looking out, snow blanketed the city creating a very desolate and magnificent look.

Since Yan Qiuchi arrived at the restaurant, he had answered two calls consecutively, so he waited outside for a while before coming in. Shen Jintai said: "So busy."

"New Year's generally is the busiest time." Yan Qiuchi said.

Shen Jintai: "Is it time for Yaoxuan to return home? Chinese New Year's less than a month away."

Yan Qiuchi: "He'll be back in a few days and will probably make it before New Year's."

As soon as Yan Qiuchi finished speaking a knock came at the door. Yan Qiuchi turned around and said: "Come in."

The waiter came in and brought in two bouquets of flowers, one was pink roses and the other was pink carnations. When he saw the roses, Shen Jintai thought they were for him, but seeing the carnations, he realized they were for Mrs. Yan.

"Today is my parents' 27th anniversary." Yan Qiuchi said.

Shen Jintai said "Ah, why didn't you tell me earlier. Now what am I going to do? I haven't prepared any gifts."

"I have already sent gifts on your behalf, and it was delivered to the house this morning. It's in both our names." Yan Qiuchi said: "The two of them thought that it wasn't a 10-year event they didn't think it was too important, so they didn't tell anyone, and they planned to have a meal with us to celebrate."

Shen Jintai: "I wanted to cancel tonight due to the weather being so bad, but Auntie Fang kept insisting to have dinner together. It turns out to be because of this."

After sitting down, Shen Jintai said: "27 years is really enviable."

Yan Qiuchi: "We will have this day in the future. Not only 27 years, 37, 47, 57, maybe even 67."

Shen Jintai laughed: "By then we'll be two old men with gray hair."

Shen Jintai noted today's date on his phone and called Mrs. Yan again. Mrs. Yan said: "We're entering the elevator right now and we'll be there soon."

Shen Jintai got up immediately, hugged a bouquet of flowers by himself, then gave Yan Qiuchi the other bouquet, then told him: "You stand on the other side with those flowers in your arms."

Yan Qiuchi was usually shameless in front of him as he piled on words of love, but in front of the Yan couple, he always acted serious but now he acted a bit uncooperative when he heard this. Shen Jintai said: "Take it and stand there."

Yan Qiuchi stood still and smiled. Suddenly the sound of footsteps was heard outside. Yan Tiefeng and Mrs. Yan pushed open the door guided by a waiter. As soon as they entered, they saw Yan Qiuchi and Shen Jintai holding a bouquet of flowers each standing on either side of the door.
