”Who are you calling?” After Qin Hanze finished packing, he walked into the room and saw Wen Zhizhi holding her phone as if she wanted to call someone.

”Yes, it's Sisi. I haven't been in touch with her lately, but she's probably pretty busy being a lawyer right now. ”

Qin Hanze walked up to her and sat down, stroking her head. ”Zhizhi, everyone has their own lives. As long as our friendship exists, nothing will change, do you understand?”

”I understand the logic, but I just miss it a little.”

With a pained heart, Qin Hanze kissed her forehead, reminding her, ”Alright, don't let your thoughts run wild. Just go to sleep early.”

Seeing Qin Hanze pull back, Wen Zhizhi immediately pulled him back.

”Where are you going?”

A trace of pride flashed across Qin Hanze's eyes before disappearing in the blink of an eye.

”To the study, of course.”

Wen Zhizhi kept her head down, as if the words she was about to say were difficult to say.

”I … I'm afraid of the dark. Can you stay with me?”

After pondering for a few seconds, Qin Hanze nodded and replied, ”Alright.”

Wen Zhizhi didn't know why, even though the man in front of her looked cold to others, there was a gentleness that others couldn't see in her eyes, and she had no reason to be confident in her trust in him.

The two of them turned out the lights and quietly lay on the bed without making any movements. It was not until the latter half of the night that Wen Zhizhi suddenly woke up from her dream and heard Qin Hanze's words.

”No, no!”

In his dream, Qin Hanze saw his brother being carried out from the scene of the car accident. The roar and roar in his heart made him unable to control himself, and even in his dreams, he was covered in sweat.

Wen Zhizhi didn't know what had happened to Qin Hanze, but she believed that one day she would understand everything about him. Right now, all she could do was stay by his side.

In his dream, Qin Hanze felt that his body was being embraced by someone. Suddenly, he felt at ease and calm. Then, a dreamless night passed.

The next day, when he woke up, Qin Hanze discovered that Wen Zhizhi was hugging him. The disgust in his eyes became even stronger. ”Zizhi, I'll take you out for breakfast today.”

”Alright.”

Wen Zhizhi sped up her dressing speed, donned a set of casual clothes made of cowboy material, and followed Qin Hanze out the door.

The car stopped at an alley entrance, so narrow that only two people could pass through.

”Let's go.”

Qin Hanze led Wen Zhe and entered the narrow road. The smell of milk wafted towards them, intoxicating them.

”It smells so good. Where are we going?” Wen Zhizhi tilted her head and saw Qin Hanze's expression, but she heard him say, ”You'll know once you go.”

Wen Zhizhi, who didn't get an answer, pouted her lips to express her unhappiness, but Qin Hanze merely smiled and continued to lead her forward.

When they finally reached the exit, a wave of wheat fragrance from the steamed buns caused many people to line up to wait.
