Passing through the intersection, as she approached Shencheng Bay No.1 T7 building.
She slowed her pace, took out her phone, and dialed Liu Shuang’s number: "Hello? Shuangshuang, where are you?"
"Almost there, almost there! Got delayed by the elevator, don’t worry, I’m sprinting over!" A breathless voice ca from the other end.
Hanging up the call, less than a minute later, a figure dashed over.
"I’m here!" Liu Shuang laughed and hugged her, like an excited puppy.
The two of them joked around for a bit and headed forward.
Liu Shuang said expectantly, "How wonderful, I get to crash at your place for a al again."
"Just to clarify, it’s ’rented,’ not my place."
"I get it, I get it, your husband rented it for you, haha." Liu Shuang shook her arm, affectionately and naturally.
Liu Qingning grunted twice but didn’t refute her address.
Because Qingning Technology Building is only a few hundred ters from Shencheng Bay No.1.
Whenever Liu Qingning’s work is not busy, she has all her als at ho.
Aunt i is originally a private nanny who used to stay with Su Yu.
Her culinary skills are outstanding; she is proficient in Cantonese, Sichuan, Western cuisine, and can even make desserts, stews, and health porridge.
Eating at ho is far more comfortable than outside.
Since Liu Shuang first ca over for a al, she was completely taken and cos over from ti to ti to crash for a al.
Having a al alone is indeed lonely, Liu Qingning is glad to have soone keeping her company, thus she accepted this "al partner".
The two walked side by side into the Shencheng Bay No.1 community.
They slowly walked along the stone path, with faint voices and car noises behind them, while the lit landscape lights ahead outlined the entire community into a gentle and serene place.
"Wow, this place is too nice, the greenery is like a park, the property is upscale, every ti I co it’s like a vacation."
"Then work hard, you might be able to buy a place here soday."
"Forget it, I can’t even afford to rent, taking advantage of you is the best deal."
The two chatted and laughed, their joyful voices lightly drifting in the night.
At this mont, a figure slowly approached from the opposite direction.
Instantly capturing their attention.
She wore a black mask and baseball cap, only revealing her eyes.
Her figure was tall and slender, dressed in a sharply cut black leather jacket, outlining sleek and upright lines.
High-waisted cargo pants and combat boots made her figure appear even more tall and cold, both stylish and cool, carrying both pressure and Charm.
As they got closer, they finally t at the corner of the path.
Liu Qingning and Liu Shuang instinctively shifted slightly to make way, slowing their pace.
At the sa ti, the woman also slowed her pace.
Her eyes slowly lifted.
Liu Qingning involuntarily froze.
What kind of eyes were those?
Pure, serene, like a deep lake thawing after the snow lts, seemingly calm but hiding turbulent undercurrents.
The red-brown eyeshadow at the corners blended with extre restraint and precision, breathtakingly beautiful.
The most beautiful eyes Liu Qingning had ever seen.
Ultimate yet restrained.
Like a low-temperature burning spark in the dark night.
But strangely, she found them sowhat... familiar.
At the mont when their eyes t, the woman’s gaze was calm and deep, as if holding countless unsaid words, yet as if saying nothing at all.
The next mont, she lowered her head and brushed past.
The wind followed, carrying a slight cool fragrance, like the scent of a pine forest on a snowy night, piercingly clear.
Not until her figure completely dissolved into the night did Liu Qingning regain her composure.
Liu Shuang exclaid, "Oh my God, who was that! So cool, like a cold-faced agent from a movie, that charisma and figure, absolutely unmatched."
At the word "movie," Liu Qingning’s steps faltered, suddenly stopping.
"What’s wrong, Qingning!" Liu Shuang tugged at her arm.
Liu Qingning stared blankly ahead, her abundant chest heaving, voice trembling slightly: "Shuangshuang, do you think...that woman just now looks like a celebrity?"
"Who?"
Liu Qingning bit her lip and laboriously said, "Su Yu."
Liu Shuang was stunned for a mont, her pupils suddenly widened, her voice rising with each beat, "No way! That’s definitely her! Su Yu! Oh my—Su Yu! We just had a chance encounter with Su Yu!"
She excitedly grabbed Liu Qingning’s arm, nearly jumping up, "Qingning, if we go now, can we still catch her?!"
Liu Qingning didn’t answer, standing there, her expression hazy, her heartbeat quickening.
Suddenly, she had a strong premonition.
It might not be long before they officially et.
