We Need To Talk About The Zookeeper

Feng Xuan came home with a renewed sense of self. It was as if her new motivation was exuding off her. She felt energized and after spending an emotional afternoon, she was smiling.

Qing Chen was not yet home when she got there so she decided to wait for him in her office. She needed to finalize everything if she would be adjusting her priority list in the next few days.

She had been able to finish the majority of tasks when she heard a car roll up their driveway. She immediately turned off her laptop and rushed downstairs. She had asked Qing Chen to stop by a store to get them fried chicken.

"Hey," Qing Chen looked up at her. "How was your afternoon?"

Feng Xuan was smiling as she stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek. She took the paper bags from him and headed to the kitchen. "Everything went well, surprisingly. My mother wrote me a letter she never got to send."

"Are you alright?" Qing Chen asked worriedly. 

"Yeah, I am alright."
