Pei Jiao looked at Wei Yu’s fleeing figure and smiled unconsciously. It was only when the door closed and Wei Yu was long gone that the smile on her lips slowly faded.

She looked down at the scarf in her hand. It was still half-finished and not very well knitted. Compared to the scarf sold outside, the needlework was extremely crude. Although Wei Yu did not say if he liked it, he definitely did not hate it.

Recalling the redness at the edge of Wei Yu’s ear when he left just now… Pei Jiao’s eyes became even more determined.

The next day, Pei Jiao woke up very early. It hadn’t snowed recently, and the weather had improved a lot. She wasn’t dressed as thickly as before, and it was easier to dress. After tidying herself up, she took the time to wait outside the door.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Wei Yu opened the door and came out with a document bag.

The moment Pei Jiao saw Wei Yu come out, her gaze was fixed on him. She noticed that he was wearing a pure black handmade tweed coat and black leather shoes today. He looked like he was going to an important occasion.

Where was he going?

Pei Jiao racked their brains to guess his recent schedule. She did not seem to have heard anyone say what Wei Yu’s plans were recently. As she thought, she stood where she was and waited for him to walk over first.

When he approached, Pei Jiao immediately smiled brightly. “Good morning,

Wei Yu.”

Wei Yu asked her expressionlessly, “Is your leg healed?”

It would have been fine if he hadn’t mentioned it. At the mention of it, Pei Jiao felt a dull pain in her knee. Last night, when she went to bed, that was called pain. She couldn’t make a turn no matter how hard she tried.

She could only lie flat and maintain the posture of bending one leg. In the end, her sleeping posture changed in the middle of the night. Her injured knee touched the bed and she woke up from the pain.

“Not yet.” Pei Jiao shook her head and answered seriously, “It doesn’t matter if 1 walk slowly. It will hurt a little if I walk too fast, but it’s fine.”

Of course, Wei Yu knew that she must still be in pain, but hearing her say it with his own ears was another matter. His clenched jaw relaxed a little, and his expression softened. “Since it still hurts, why don’t you sleep more? Why are you out so early?”

Pei Jiao placed her hands behind her back in embarrassment and bit her lower lip several times. “Last night, 1 said that I wanted to see you today too. I said this, so I must fulfill it.”

Wei Yu’s lips curled into a faint smile. “Now that we’ve met, what are your plans?”

Pei Jiao whispered, “l want to go to breakfast with you.”

During this period of time, as long as she did not want to go out, Wei Yu would get Ji He to send her food. It did not matter if it was morning, noon, or night. As long as she wanted to eat, he would send it.

Or sometimes, Wei Yu would bring it back for her personally. However, a long time had passed since the last time the two of them went to breakfast together, so Pei Jiao wanted to do it again. She looked at Wei Yu expectantly and eagerly, waiting for him to speak.

She didn’t know how attractive her gaze was to Wei Yu now. He didn’t even hesitate before agreeing. “Sure.”

Pei Jiao was delighted and laughed happily. She grabbed his wrist and said excitedly, “I knew you were the best.”

Wei Yu looked down at her hand. The air suddenly became quiet.

Pei Jiao realized that she had gone overboard and quickly pulled her hand back. She scratched behind her ear shyly. “I’m sorry. I was just too happy and agitated just now. I didn’t manage my hands well.” With that, she quickly raised her hand, her little expression becoming very serious. “l promise I won’t touch your hand again without your permission.”

Wei Yu curled his lips and sneered. As he passed by her, he said, “Let’s go.”

“You agreed to take me to breakfast with you?” she asked uncertainly.

Wei Yu asked her back, “What else?”

Pei Jiao was overjoyed. After she took a big happy step, the pain in her knee reminded her that she could not stride now. The pain made her frown. She suddenly stood where she was.

Wei Yu sensed that she was not following and turned to look at her. Seeing that she was frowning and looking very uncomfortable, he turned back and asked, “Can you walk?”

Pei Jiao tried to be brave. “Yes, definitely.”

Wei Yu watched her act tough calmly. “Then take two more steps for me to

see. ”

Pei Jiao was a stubborn donkey. If Wei Yu deliberately provoked her, she would really fight him. She took a step forward and wanted to show him. However, before she could take that step, Wei Yu picked her up horizontally.

Pei Jiao was slightly stunned. This was the first time she had been carried by Wei Yu while she was extremely awake. She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and stared at his jaw.

Wei Yu could clearly feel her gaze on him. As he walked, he said, “Why? Are you planning to keep staring at me until you see through me?”

Pei Jiao said, “It’s your fault for being too good-looking.”

Wei Yu naturally wouldn’t respond to this, because he never liked people praising him for being good-looking. But he wouldn’t be angry if she praised him. At most, he would ignore her. Along the way, Wei Yu received many surprised gazes.

Wei Yu, who had always been pure of heart and had few desires, was actually carrying a woman in his arms today. This was a rather explosive scene in the entire base,

When they arrived at the canteen, Wei Yu put Pei Jiao down.

Pei Jiao glanced at the canteen today. It was quite crowded. It was completely different from that day. She retracted her gaze and turned to Wei Yua “Thank you.”

Wei Yu shook his head gently.

Pei Jiao asked again, “Does your arm feel a little sore after carrying me for so long?”

“Do you think it’s difficult for me to carry you?” Wei Yu asked her.

Pei Jiao smiled and shook her head. “No, you look very relaxed after carrying me for so long. I feel that you can still carry me back and forth twice.”

Wei Yu smiled. “As many rounds as you want.”

Pei Jiao smiled coquettishly. “Are you proving yourself?”

“l don’t need proof.” He said the words a little too quickly.

Pei Jiao silently moved her hand over and held the tip of his index finger. Wei

Yu looked down. “What’s wrong?”

Pei Jiao’s face was full of flattery. “Can I hold your finger? There are many people in the canteen today. I’m afraid I’ll get lost.”

In the past, Wei Yu would have shaken off Pei Jiao’s hand and distanced himself from her by another two meters. However, the current Wei Yu could easily compromise in front of Pei Jiao. He agreed without much hesitation.

“Sure.”

“You’re the best.” Pei Jiao did not dare to push her luck. She said that she would hold only one finger.

The cafeteria was much livelier today than it had been that day.

Pei Jiao knew very well that Wei Yu had cleared the scene to trick her that day.

Although she understood, she had to pretend to be confused. “Is it because we’re so early that there are so many people? I remember the last time you brought me here, it was just the two of us.”

Wei Yu sensed the uneasiness coming from her fingertips and walked even slower. “They went to a meeting that day. It’s just the two of us. Although there are many people today, there’s no need to be nervous. Just ask me if you have any questions.”

Pei Jiao subconsciously snuggled closer to him because of his words. In the short few minutes since they entered and sat down, more than ten gazes had already looked over and stopped on Pei Jiao.

Wei Yu frowned, clearly displeased. He looked up and said to Pei Jiao, “It’s better to stay in the dormitory and eat in the future.”

Pei Jiao was using Wei Yu’s phone to order food after scanning the QR code. When she heard Wei Yu’s words, she shook her head and said, “I don’t want it. ”

Wei Yu stared at her and asked her why. “Do you prefer lively places?”

Pei Jiao said affectionately, “l like where you are.”

Wei Yu pondered for a moment. “Then let’s go to another place.”

“Where?” Pei Jiao was very curious and immediately looked up at him.

Wei Yu said, “My private lounge.”

Pei Jiao bit her lip, her eyes sparkling with a smile. “Are you making things easy for me?”

Wei Yu said nothing.

Pei Jiao lowered her eyes. “Then forget it. I’m afraid I’ll trouble you.”

Wei Yu suddenly reached for the cell phone and took her hand. “No, let’s go now..”
