"Crack."
The tires rubbed against the pavement, making a faint scraping sound.
Lin Li parked the car in a roadside parking space. The moment he pulled up the handbrake, he saw a tall, slender figure hurry out of the flower shop.
Su Yue's skirt swayed lightly with her steps. Her long, jet-black hair fell over her shoulders as she walked straight toward the car, a charming smile on her face.
Lin Li pushed open the door and got out. Seeing Su Yue hurry over, he grinned and handed her the cake bag in his hand.
"Here's the strawberry cake you wanted."
Su Yue reached out and took the cake bag. It felt surprisingly heavy. She opened a corner and glanced inside, discovering five cake boxes neatly arranged within. Her eyes immediately widened in surprise.
"That many?"
"I was worried you wouldn't have enough, so I bought a few extra."
A gentle smile curved Lin Li's lips as his gaze fell on her face.
Su Yue lightly pouted, pretending to grumble in distress. "If I eat all these strawberry cakes, the calories are definitely going to explode. And if I get fat, I'm blaming you."
"It'll be fine." Lin Li smiled and suggested, "At worst, spend a few extra minutes doing yoga tonight, or go downstairs for a run and burn off the excess calories.
"You'll get to eat sweets and exercise at the same time. Killing two birds with one stone."
"That's actually a good idea." Su Yue nodded in agreement, then looked up at him. "Come sit in the flower shop for a while. Have a cup of tea before you go."
Lin Li shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of apology. "No, I still have something to take care of. I'll sit with you next time."
