Nico Haynes clicked his tongue twice: "As if Boss Seys wasn’t into early romance."
Dawn Sutherland smiled at everyone: "If Third Haynes keeps talking, I bet he won’t make it out of Royal View City’s front gate today. He kills the mood every ti. Arlo, don’t hold back, give him a good beating, especially on that face of his, to prevent him from causing trouble and wandering around."
Nico Haynes slapped the table, "Second Young Master Sutherland, what grudge do you have against that you’re inciting Boss Seys to beat up!"
Ariel Morris laughed, "Because you really deserve it."
"...I’ll end my friendship with you guys for ten thousand years!!"
Arlo Seys glanced at Nico Haynes indifferently, "Take care, not seeing you off."
"..." Nico Haynes clutched his chest, making an exaggerated heartbroken expression, "Boss Seys, my heart’s shattered. You’re so ruthless and indifferent, it’s breaking my heart."
Arlo Seys casually responded, "As long as you’re still talking, it seems your heart isn’t that deeply broken."
Everyone laughed at Nico Haynes.

After dinner, a few of them were sitting on the sofa chatting.
Nico Haynes rubbed his full belly and burped, "I’m stuffed. How about we go out for a walk to digest?"
Others nodded in agreent, and they all went out for a stroll.
"There was just a slight snowfall during the day, I thought I’d be able to wake up to a snowy view tomorrow," Nicole laughed as she spoke.
Nico Haynes walking beside her, "No rush, we’ll have a big snow in a few days. We can go to Red Fragrance Hill for snow viewing then. I rember back in high school with Little Girl Morris, Brother Seys, and Second Young Master Sutherland, the four of us watched the snow there and had hotpot, such nostalgia."
Dawn Sutherland smiled lightly, "In a blink, eight years have passed. Ti flies."
Nico Haynes nodded, "Exactly. Who would have thought that after eight years, Little Girl Morris would still end up with Brother Seys? Thinking about it, fate is truly wonderful. But all thanks to Brother Seys’ persistence, waiting and waiting, until Little Girl Morris ca back to him."
Walking behind were the two ntioned, Arlo Seys and Ariel Morris, both wearing sweet smiles on their faces.
In front, Daisy Grant smiled faintly, her fingers slightly cold, "Many have been defeated by waiting, and many have gained nothing from persistent waiting. Brother Seys and Ariel are so happy and lucky."
Her persistence, the love she endured for over ten years, led her to her wedding gown, and now Second Young Master Sutherland was getting his marriage certificate with Evalian Chapman.
Beside Daisy Grant, Dawn Sutherland heard these words and felt a pang of heartache, catching the bittersweet smile at the corner of her mouth with his peripheral vision.
As they spoke, Nico Haynes suddenly exclaid, "Look, there are bicycles here!"
Arlo Seys said casually, "Royal View City has a man-made lake, and these bicycles are for post-al exercise. You can ride around the lake."
"Damn it, I regret not becoming neighbors with Brother Seys! The anities here at Royal View City are aweso!" Nico Haynes walked over to the bicycles, "Co on, how long has it been since we’ve ridden a bike? Let’s race?"
Arlo Seys holding Ariel Morris, "I need to take care of Ariel."
Nico Haynes sighed, "Boss Seys, don’t be such a killjoy! Just carry Little Girl Morris along! To make it fair, the three of us guys will carry the three of them, and we’ll see who finishes a lap first."
"Sure." Ariel Morris smiled softly, "Arlo, don’t lose to Third Haynes! Back in those days when you carried , our bike made so many Scenic Hill High School couples envious!"
Arlo Seys chuckled gently, helping Ariel Morris onto the rear seat of the bicycle.
Nico Haynes grabbed a bike and rode a round, stopping a few dozen ters ahead and whistled at Nicole, raising his brows with a smile, "Co on, Little Sister Seys, big brother will take you."
Nicole laughed, "Sitting on Young Master Haynes’ bike, if this photo gets out, I’m sure a pack of won will tear apart!"
