Qiao could clearly feel Alice's mood, that she had really let go. This was a very difficult thing for patients, and some people could not find it throughout their lives.

Alice is lucky enough to find the answer.

Joe extended a sincere invitation to Alice, "Would you like to have dinner with me, Alice?"

Of course, Sanada Ling agreed without hesitation. This was something she could only dream of.

"it is good."

Naturally, Qiao did not ignore Ada who was not far away, "If you don't mind, bring your friends with you."

"Ah."

Ada touched the top of his head. Fortunately, someone still remembered him.

After many years of absence, Sanada Ling finally stepped into this residence again. Joe's house was a small villa in the suburbs. He thought that the urban area was too noisy and could not think calmly. Even though it was very close to his workplace, he was determined to moved to sparsely populated suburbs.

Sanada Ling raised her hand and placed it on the wooden fence at the door. There was a tooth mark six inches downward. This was left by the dog that the farmer raised when he came to visit the door and gnawed on it. Qiao thought this dog tooth mark was quite interesting. No repairs were made.

She is so familiar with this place. Every flower, every grass, every floor tile, every inch of wallpaper is the existence that Sanada Ling is most familiar with. She has lived here for a long time, and she was the only one left in the end.

"Come in Alice, don't be stunned. I should have prepared a lot of food for Christmas."

Sanada Ling thought, yes, Joe always wanted to spend a quiet Christmas, but unfortunately every time he was interrupted by a case, and he had to fly to other states to help in the middle of the night.

Ada asked in a low voice from behind, "Are you okay?"

Sanada Ling looked around and replied softly, "I'm fine."

It's really nice that she's here and Joe is alive.

They said they were cooking together, but Qiao simply asked her to dip a kitchen knife, or bring an onion over at most. Instead, Ada put on an apron and joined hands to help.

Qiao also praised a few words in the middle, "The knife skills are good."

Ah Da accepted it humbly, "You've given me the award."

Joe was actually curious about Alice's identity. After all, it was very strange that the police could accompany her at all times, and it didn't look like she was being imprisoned.

But this curiosity was not big enough for Joe to ask directly. From the bottom of his heart, it was enough for him to see Alice looking healthy and positive.

As you get older, you shouldn’t think so deeply about some things. Isn’t it just right now?

He had dinner with his friends whom he had been friends with for many years. Well, the champagne he had collected for a long time was ready to be opened.

Of course, children are not allowed to drink alcohol, so juice is a must-have for her.

Sanada Ling smiled helplessly, okay, she knew that from the beginning, Qiao didn't allow her to drink, saying that it was easy to become addicted and harmful to the body. Milk and juice were the ones she should choose, with a cup of coffee at most.

Sanada Ling has no rebellious intentions in this regard, and there is no need to be rebellious about small things.

Qiao raised his glasses and clinked them, a kind smile appeared in his blue eyes, "Cheers, I wish you all the best."

Sanada Ling and Ah Da raised their glasses at the same time, "Cheers to better things."

Maybe it was because Qiao's smile was too warm, or maybe the light was too dazzling, but Sanada Ling actually felt that the juice was a bit intoxicating.

Such a scene was something she had never dared to imagine in her dreams. Now that it has come true, it is really unbelievable. (End of chapter)
