“I saw it when I came. There’s a pedestrian street nearby with lots of good food and fun things to do. We can go for a walk together.”
"Okay, okay." Cheng Luo sprawled out on the soft bed, her fine black hair slightly disheveled, and her peach blossom eyes, when looking at Yu Tang, seemed to be filled with stars, sparkling brightly.
He opened his arms and pleaded, "Tangtang, can you help me up?"
Yu Tang was helpless.
He grabbed Cheng Luo's hand and pulled hard, and Cheng Luo, following his force, hugged him tightly.
She rested her chin on the man's shoulder: "Tangtang, now that you've grabbed my hand, don't let go."
He sighed softly, as if joking, but deep down he was serious: "Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to stand it."
Yu Tang was stunned.
Before he could say anything, Cheng Luo let go of him and instead took his hand, leading him outside: "Let's go out to eat. I want barbecue, beer, crayfish, skewers! I also want ice cream, cotton candy, cake..."
Yu Tang chuckled: "Can you even eat all of this?"
"If we can't finish eating in one day, we can do it in two or three days! We'll be able to finish!"
Looking at Cheng Luo's confident yet rather naive appearance, Yu Tang suddenly realized that the young man in front of him was only nineteen years old.
In his world, he's just a freshman in college.
They are young, innocent, and full of vitality, which is both enviable and endearing.
Thinking this, he followed Cheng Luo into the elevator. Just as the doors closed in front of him, Cheng Luo leaned down slightly, got close to him, and whispered, "Tangtang, do you know what I want to do right now?"
Yu Tang snapped out of his daze and asked in confusion, "What are you doing?"
Cheng Luo curled her lips into a smile and chuckled, "I want to be like the seme in those comics..."
"I kissed you in the elevator until your legs went weak, and you could barely stand by leaning on me..."
He takes back the bullshit he just said about Cheng Luo being naive!

“But there are surveillance cameras.” Before Yu Tang could get angry, Cheng Luo straightened up and sighed, “I know you don’t like doing this kind of thing under surveillance, so we’ll just have to forget about it.”
In fact, Cheng Luo could destroy surveillance cameras with a flick of his wrist if he wanted to.
But he understood that Yu Tang didn't like him doing this, and besides, he had another mission this time, so he couldn't act recklessly at this stage.
Hearing Cheng Luo's words, Yu Tang breathed a sigh of relief.
As the elevator doors opened and he was about to step out, he heard Cheng Luo mutter, "When we get back to the room tonight, you can kiss me however you like."
His back stiffened, and he turned around to glare at him. Cheng Luo shamelessly chased after him, and his feigned obedience prevented him from cursing. He could only let the other person hold his hand and walk alongside him.
They arrived in City S, which, although not adjacent to the capital, was just as prosperous as the capital.
Many luxury vehicles were seen traveling on the road.
The greenery along the roadside is also quite good, with flowers and trees distributed in a regular pattern. The leaves on the tall trees are withered and yellow, and the soles of pedestrians' shoes crunch as they step on the fallen leaves.
Cheng Luo and Yu Tang strolled along the road, but Cheng Luo was thinking about their plans for the evening.
The mayor of this city is a man of Richard Li. This is because Richard Li and Wang Guangju have always been adversaries.
Therefore, there is a great risk that the machine will be discovered by Li Ka-shing's spies if it goes through this port.
Therefore, Chen Zhicai sent Cheng Luo over so that if they were stopped, Cheng Luo could take care of Li Zekai's men and ensure the machine's safety.
However, his mistake was believing Cheng Luo.
He also overlooked the fact that Li Zekai was coming to S City tonight for a secret meeting.
Everything is now under Cheng Luo's control.
When he arrived, Cheng Luo tampered with the blindfold to disable its effect, not only so he could kiss Yu Tang.
Pulling up the curtains on the car windows was also an attempt to fool the people in the front row who were watching them, making them think that he really was a monster who didn't know any restraint or boundaries.
But secretly, he opened his eyes and remembered the location of the base and the terrain of the route he came from.
He now had a map in his mind showing the route from the base to City S.
With just a little effort, one can draw it and hand it over to Richard Li at any time.
He also couldn't bring out those important paper documents.
But he memorized it all, and all he had to do was find an internet cafe, print out the content, and that was it—the copy was done.
However, some of the documents bearing the official seal still need to be returned to the base before they can be handed over to Li Ka-shing in their original form.
Those items are the most important evidence to sue Wang Guangju, and they must be the originals.
He didn't tell Yu Tang any of this.
Because he didn't want Yu Tang to worry.
I didn't want to ruin this date.
"What should we eat first?" Hearing Yu Tang speak, Cheng Luo looked up and saw the man pointing to a barbecue restaurant: "How about barbecue?"
“Okay…” Cheng Luo immediately resumed her obedient expression and followed Yu Tang into the barbecue restaurant.
The two chose a window seat and waited for the barbecue to be served. Yu Tang unwrapped their utensils, carefully rinsed them with tea, and handed them to Cheng Luo.
They found the young man staring out the window, lost in thought.
He turned his head and followed Cheng Luo's gaze, and saw a mother with her child out to play.
The five- or six-year-old boy, dressed in clean clothes and holding a newly bought toy, looked up at the woman and smiled.
The woman ruffled his hair, whispered something, and the two of them laughed together.
After a while, a car stopped by the roadside, and a well-dressed man got out, put his arms around his wife and son, and got into the car. The family looked happy and harmonious.
Yu Tang pursed her lips, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
Just as I was about to say something, Cheng Luo spoke first.
"Tangtang, I don't know who my father is." Cheng Luo propped his face up with his hand and looked away. "When I was little, I didn't understand things and I always asked my mother why other children had fathers but I didn't?"
If I had a father, would our lives be less difficult, would we not have to scavenge for other people's leftovers, and would we not have to suffer from cold and hunger?
We can live in a beautiful house, eat hot and clean meals, and I can be sandwiched between my mom and dad, going to the park together..."
“Back then, my mother’s response was to hug me and cry.” Cheng Luo’s eyes were slightly red. “Then she would apologize and say that she had ruined me.”
"I didn't want to hurt her like that, so I stopped asking."
He smiled at Yu Tang, his eyes crinkling, "But now that I think about it, my father probably wasn't a good person either."
"If I had known he was still alive, I would never have let him live a good life."
Yu Tang looked at Cheng Luo with heartache.
He knew that Cheng Luo must feel bad saying such things.
Having spent so much time together, he had come to understand Cheng Luo's temperament to some extent.
The sadder this kid is, the more he smiles. And most of those who look sad are just acting, trying to get his sympathy.
So sometimes, he couldn't tell what Cheng Luo was feeling.
But at least for now, he thought, the other person probably needed comfort.
He took the candy out of his pocket, grabbed Cheng Luo's hand that was on the table, put the fruit candy in his palm, and then helped him close it.
“You should think of it this way,” Yu Tang smiled at him. “The hard times are over.”
"From now on, your life will only be sweet."
"Grasp the present, look to the future." He earnestly told Cheng Luo, "Your life will get better and better."
"Pfft..." Cheng Luo stared at him for a while before bursting out laughing.
"Tangtang, why do you sound like an old man?"
Yu Tang was speechless.
He simply assumed he was almost ten years older than Cheng Luo. So, at times like this, he subconsciously wanted to say something that made sense.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Luo not only didn't appreciate it, but also said he looked like an old man...
Seeing Yu Tang's frozen expression, Cheng Luo's frustration vanished. He opened his palm and handed the candy back to Yu Tang: "Then you feed me."
"I want you to feed me."
Yu Tang protested in a low voice: "There are so many people!"
Cheng Luo pretended to cry: "Waaah, Tangtang brother won't feed me candy. When I ask, he says he doesn't love me anymore!"
Yu Tang quickly covered his mouth, the veins on his forehead throbbing.
"Okay, I'll feed you! Stop messing around!"
Cheng Luo blinked in agreement.
Yu Tang let go, unwrapped the candy, and fed it to him.
Just as he was about to pull his hand back, Cheng Luo grabbed his wrist and pressed it onto the table.
The young man's expression instantly turned very serious, his dark eyes almost peering into Yu Tang's soul.
"Yutang, all the sweetness I've ever tasted was given to me by you."
"You told me to hold on to the present moment, and you are my present moment, so I held your hand tightly."
"As for my future..." he said, "It is incomplete without you."

"Ah, the barbecue is so delicious."
Satisfied, Cheng Luo emerged from the barbecue restaurant and stood in the autumn sunlight. His tall, slender figure and handsome features attracted the attention of many.
