Chapter 468: Chapter 417: You Go Out First
Some things are destined from the very beginning,
"Are you mad?" Bai Chengxi realized she had suddenly gone silent and held her in his arms with a bit of guilt, coaxing her, "Do you regret it now?"
Zhuo Yuqing turned her head away, ignoring him,
"You go out first."
"You sneaked out in the middle of the night, your parents must not know, right?"
"Yeah."
"They will worry if they can’t see you tomorrow morning,
"Then I’ll accompany you back to Aus City tomorrow."
"Will your dad agree?"
"He’s going to Uncle Zhang’s house tomorrow. I’ll call him when I get to Aus City, deal with the consequences later; he can’t do anything to me anyway."
Bai Chengxi took the opportunity to ruffle her hair, actually eager for her to leave with him: "Alright, first thing tomorrow morning, I’ll come to pick you up."
After drying her hair, Bai Chengxi helped Zhuo Yuqing get dressed, she wanted to do it herself, but he insisted not to let her,
Zhuo Yuqing held his hand and gently shook it: "Bai Chengxi, thank you."
"Thank me for what?"
Zhuo Yuqing couldn’t quite say what she needed to thank him for, but she just felt a strong urge to express her gratitude.
"I’ll go get your suitcase for you."
That time at her house, she had also checked the sheets, but found nothing,
"What’s wrong?" Bai Chengxi pulled her suitcase over and saw her emerging from the washroom in a fluster.
"Nothing." Zhuo Yuqing gave him a forced laugh, "Let’s go."
Bai Chengxi drove Zhuo Yuqing home and watched her enter the front door before leaving.

Early the next morning, after Bai Chengxi freshened up and was ready to go pick up Zhuo Yuqing, there was a knock on the door claiming to be room service.
He hadn’t ordered anything, but the waiter pushed the dining cart in, smiling and saying, "Mr. Bai, please enjoy your breakfast."
After the waiter left, Bai Chengxi lifted the silver lid on the dining cart, there were freshly fried dough sticks, freshly squeezed soy milk, and a few delicate side dishes.
He knew who had sent it, his cold expression did not soften in the slightest, he closed the lid, and continued to straighten his tie.
Soon after, there was a knock on Su Yingluo’s door as well,
The waiter respectfully replied, "This was sent over by Mr. Bai."
The waiter had received a tip that morning to deliver breakfast, not expecting Bai Chengxi to have him return it untouched.
"Mr. Bai also said." The waiter carefully observed Su Yingluo’s expression, cautiously conveying, "Mr. Bai said he hasn’t had soy milk and fried dough sticks for many years, Miss Su can keep and enjoy it herself."
Su Yingluo’s pretty face instantly lost color, in front of the waiter, she felt somewhat awkward: "Got it, you can go out."
After the waiter left, Su Yingluo stared at the simple breakfast before her and fell into a silent reverie, back then, soy milk and fried dough sticks were their favorite, actually because there wasn’t much extra money to afford a fancier breakfast.
He worked so hard every day, still getting up early to buy soy milk and fried dough sticks from the street, although cheap, the two together always tasted of happiness.
Thinking about it now, she suddenly doubted the past, every day was tough, yet every day was filled with hope.
Su Yingluo sat down beside the table, picked up the chopsticks, and grabbed a fried dough stick.
Over the years, what has changed is time, what remains unchanged is her love for him.
