He saw Shi Che and Ling Chuxia.
Their car was parked by the roadside, with Shi Che sitting in the driver’s seat and Ling Chuxia in the passenger seat. They seemed to be talking about something, Ling Chuxia’s eyes curved with joy, radiating happiness.
Even from a distance, he could feel the glow of happiness emanating from her whole being.
He saw Shi Che kiss Ling Chuxia, and then... Ling Chuxia leaned in to return the kiss, so naturally, so happily.
Since he had met Ling Chuxia again, she had smiled in front of him, but her smiles were always restrained, shallow, as if through a veil, unlike the unrestrained and indulgent ones she now displayed.
What kind of people we are with determines what kind of smiles we wear.
Bai Yixuan’s heart, which had been in turmoil for a week, found a sad sense of settling in that moment. And though it was sad, he also felt fortunate. Fortunate that his Xiaxia was finally able to smile like the sun again, even if it wasn’t for him.
All the reluctance and chaos seemed to vanish in that moment.
Bai Yixuan withdrew his gaze nonchalantly, pressed the accelerator, and the car sped off, leaving.

When Ling Chuxia got off work, Shi Che’s car was already waiting by the side of the road. Approaching, she couldn’t help but quicken her pace.
Upon reaching the car, she opened the door, sat down, but before she was settled, she was pulled into an embrace, and her lips were sealed with a kiss.
Shi Che held her, his lips pressing firmly against hers in a deep kiss that lasted a while, and he seemed reluctant to pull away from her lips.
He didn’t let go of her, but instead touched his forehead to hers, his voice entwined with longing, "Chuxia, it’s been eight hours since we last saw each other."
Ling Chuxia’s breath quickened, she glanced at him with a mix of coyness and annoyance, "It’s just been eight hours."
"Every minute, every second, feels like an eternity."
The low, lazy voice echoed in her ears, sliding into them with delightful intonation. Ling Chuxia never knew Shi Che to be one for sweet nothings, he didn’t seem like he’d indulge in them, but unexpectedly, his words intoxicated her.
For a moment, Ling Chuxia felt her heart soften, as if soaked in water, tender and gentle.
A smile tugged irresistibly at the corners of Ling Chuxia’s lips, unable to speak, she chose to act instead. Her arms went around Shi Che’s neck, pulling his head down, she lifted hers to meet his kiss.

Ling Chuxia had thought Shi Che would take her to a restaurant for dinner, but unexpectedly his car stopped in front of a supermarket near Yi Garden.
Ling Chuxia was puzzled for a moment, turning her head to Shi Che, "Aren’t we going to dine out?"
"Hmm, we do need to pick up some groceries first."
"Groceries? Why do we need to buy groceries?" Ling Chuxia frowned in confusion, then suddenly had a realization, "Are you planning to cook?"
Shi Che leaned in to undo Ling Chuxia’s seatbelt, his dark eyes meeting hers, his voice lazy, "Not me, you’re cooking."
She was cooking?
Before Ling Chuxia could fully grasp the meaning of his words, Shi Che had already gotten out of the car, came around to her side, opened the door, and with a hand over her head, he helped her out and then, wrapping an arm around her waist, headed straight towards the supermarket.
Once inside, Shi Che immediately went for a shopping cart, then led Ling Chuxia straight to the food section, halting in front of a large fish tank, his thin lips parting slightly, "Chuxia, make me fish soup tonight."
Ling Chuxia stood motionless for several seconds, her mind flashing with something akin to a bolt of lightning.
