The Case of Love

Chapter 33 Good atmosphere
"Director Zhao, Sister Sun!" Zhou Yifeng turned around, even more surprised. He didn't expect that several of his subordinates had invited the director.

"I heard them talking that day, and I said I couldn't miss the birthday party. However, I didn't bring any gifts. I just came here to eat for free!" Zhao Ansheng said humorously.

"It's my great honor that Director Zhao is here. But how can I let you celebrate my birthday? Let's not talk about birthdays today, let's just have a dinner together!" Zhou Yifeng was flattered.

For Zhou Yifeng, Zhao Ansheng is not only his boss, but also his teacher and guide. In this world, the man he admires most, besides his father, is Zhao Ansheng.

"Everyone is here. Director Zhao, you and Sister Sun come and sit inside! The boss will sit next to Director Zhao!" Li Zhisong began to arrange the seats.

Su Xiaohan was just about to sit at the food court at the door when Li Zhisong pulled her over and asked her to sit to Zhou Yifeng's left.

After everyone was seated, Li Zhisong asked the waiter to serve the food.

Before the dishes were served, Su Xiaohan went out to answer a phone call. Ten minutes later, the door of the private room was pushed open by the waiter. Surrounded by several waiters in cheongsam, Su Xiaohan slowly approached with a beautifully decorated trolley. On the crystal tray was a double-layer birthday cake.

In order to blend into the atmosphere of the private room, Su Xiaohan tied her hair up high and put on her dark eyebrows, and put on a simple and elegant moon-white cheongsam. She walked lightly and calmly, looking both dignified and generous, and she perfectly interpreted the implicitness and elegance of the cheongsam.

The birthday party was designed by Li Zhisong and others, and they also told Zhao Ansheng and Sun Yidan the process of the birthday party, so they were not surprised to see Su Xiaohan change her clothes, but were amazed. They knew she would change her clothes and appear with a birthday cake, but they didn't expect her to be so beautiful after changing her clothes. She was completely different from the heroic policewoman image on weekdays, like a Jiangnan woman who walked out of a painting.

Zhou Yifeng's eyes were fixed on Su Xiaohan like a spotlight until she approached him, then he came to his senses and stood up.

Several waiters fixed the cake, and the leading waiter said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, this is the cake made for you by your subordinates. I wish you a happy birthday and become more and more handsome!"

Su Xiaohan also smiled and came forward to send her blessings to Zhou Yifeng. Before she finished speaking, the lights in the private room gradually dimmed and the birthday song started playing.

"Yifeng, make a wish!" Zhao Ansheng suggested.

Hearing that the cake was made by Su Xiaohan and others, Zhou Yifeng felt better. He closed his eyes slightly, made a wish, and then blew out the candles with everyone.

The lights in the private room came on again, and Su Xiaohan sat back next to Zhou Yifeng. A faint and elegant fragrance wafted over, causing Zhou Yifeng's heart to move.

The waiter cut the cake and shared it with everyone. Zhou Yifeng rarely ate such sweet things, but thinking that Su Xiaohan and the others had taken the trouble to make it, he took a bite out of curiosity. To his surprise, the cake felt soft and fragrant, sweet but not greasy, which was exactly what he liked.

He took several big bites in a row until he had finished the whole piece of cake. Su Xiaohan sat beside him and watched him. She didn't need to ask if the cake was delicious, she could tell from his expression.

Li Zhisong, on the other hand, wanted to hear Zhou Yifeng's compliments, so he asked with a smile, "How is it, Boss? Is the cake we made delicious?"

Hearing Li Zhisong's question, Zhou Yifeng's smile had not yet faded, and he pretended to be serious and said, "Oh, not bad."

Zhao Ansheng sat next to Zhou Yifeng. He could see his expression clearly and thought, this kid is still the same. He can't even say nice things.

Because it was the weekend, they could drink, but in order to stay awake, Zhou Yifeng only drank a small cup, and everyone else drank very little. Su Xiaohan never drank alcohol, so she only drank a glass of juice. Everyone ate and talked, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

During the dinner, Zhao Ansheng asked Su Xiaohan if she had a boyfriend, and Li Zhisong answered for her first. Zhao Ansheng was a little surprised to learn that Su Xiaohan was still single. In his opinion, a young and beautiful girl like Su Xiaohan, who was also a top student at the Public Security University, should have many suitors.

Faced with this kind of question, Li Zhisong knew that Su Xiaohan was embarrassed to answer, so he acted as her spokesperson.

"Director Zhao, the reason why my junior sister doesn't have a boyfriend is very simple, that is, she has too high standards. I heard from my junior classmates in the next year that my junior sister is the campus belle of our Public Security University and a member of the student union. I would like to pursue her, but I'm afraid that my junior sister won't like me!" Li Zhisong said half-truthfully.

Su Xiaohan looked at him helplessly and thought to herself, Senior Brother, why are you so gossipy and tell everything to your leader!

After Li Zhisong finished speaking, Zhao Ansheng looked at Zhou Yifeng meaningfully and asked with a smile: "If I remember correctly, Yifeng is also single, right?"

Zhou Yifeng didn't expect Zhao Ansheng to suddenly turn his target to him. He was slightly stunned before saying, "Yes, Director Zhao."

Li Zhisong looked at Zhou Yifeng, then at Su Xiaohan, as if he understood what Zhao Ansheng meant. Everyone present also understood, but they didn't say anything because they were afraid that Su Xiaohan would be embarrassed.

For a moment, the private room seemed to be filled with pink peach hearts and had the sour smell of love.

Zhou Yifeng naturally knew Zhao Ansheng's intentions, but he didn't dare to talk to him. Even though there was a moment just now, he seemed to be moved by the girl next to him. She looked really beautiful in cheongsam.

"Director Zhao, the lamb chops in this restaurant are delicious. Please have a piece!" Su Xiaohan stood up with a red face and picked up a piece of lamb chop with a serving chopstick and gave it to Zhao Ansheng.

Zhao Ansheng smiled, thinking that this little girl wanted to shut him up! To avoid embarrassment, he did not continue the previous topic. But he was an experienced person after all, and judging from the performance of Zhou Yifeng and Su Xiaohan, he felt that they had a chance. However, this matter could not be rushed, and they needed to know more about it.

Everyone had a great time that evening and didn't leave until after ten o'clock in the evening.

Li Zhisong called a car to take Director Zhao and Sun Yidan, Zhou Yifeng took Su Xiaohan, and everyone else went home.

Along the way, Zhou Yifeng and Su Xiaohan didn't speak until Su Xiaohan got out of the car, then he rolled down the window and called her.

"Xiao Han, thank you! Today's cake is the most delicious I have ever eaten!"

His voice came from behind her, very light and soft. Su Xiaohan had never heard him speak to anyone in this tone before, so she turned around and smiled slightly: "If you like it, I'll make it for you later!"

After saying that, without waiting for his answer, she opened the door and ran in.

Looking at her slim back, Zhou Yifeng seemed to be thinking about something.

The next morning, it had just rained heavily, and water droplets crisscrossed the French windows, and the ground was covered with a layer of shimmering water. The raindrops gradually became smaller and fell, splashing small whirlpools on the water.

It was a rare occasion for Su Xiaohan to wake up naturally. She stretched her body, picked up the phone from the bedside table, and checked her WeChat Moments.
