Cupid's Arrow hit me hard!

Quinn replied with alacrity, "Alright, I'll let my mom know and ask her to prepare more food tonight. She'll be really happy to know that you love her cooking so much." Julian smiled. "Mrs. Crawford's cooking is truly delicious."

"Make sure to eat plenty tonight, Mr. Bucham. I'll go for my training now and I'll fetch you from the airport later. See you tonight."

"Sure, I'll switch my phone to airplane mode now. See you."

While Julian exchanged goodbyes, he was reluctant to hang up first. After he noticed that Quinn had ended the call, he moved the phone away from his ear.

His phone's screen displayed a photo of Quinn. When Quinn attended Zachary and Serenity's wedding, Julian had taken several portraits of her and sent them to her. He also kept those photos on his phone and set one of them as his wallpaper.

He could see Quinn every time he unlocked his phone.

Quinn looked both stunning and full of youthful energy with a brilliant smile. Julian found himself increasingly drawn to her.

Several hours had passed since the plane took off from Wiltspoon.

As soon as the plane safely landed at Summervale Airport, Julian disabled airplane mode on his phone.

His phone began receiving messages from Quinn, who informed him that she was waiting for him at the airport exit.

Julian immediately called Quinn.

"Mr. Bucham."

Quinn answered with a smile, "Have you arrived? I just got here too, waiting for you at the airport exit. I've prepared a large sign with your name on it so you can spot it easily when you come out." Julian laughed and said, "Alright, the plane's just touched down. I still need to collect my luggage."

"No problem, I'll wait for you. Have you eaten anything? I can buy some snacks for you to eat on the way back. The airport is quite far from my house. By the time we get there, it'll be dark. I don't want you to go home hungry."

Despite her straightforward personality, Quinn was also very thoughtful. Julian was thoroughly pleased with her.

"No, my flight didn't offer any meals, and it was just a few hours. I didn't think I'd get hungry, so I didn't bring any snacks with me. But you can help me get some tasty local snacks from Summervale, I'll savor them later."

"Sure thing, I'll go buy them now, and once I have everything, I'll come back to wait for you. I've sent you the location. If you can't find me, just call."

Knowing that Julian was not a picky eater and had a good appetite, Quinn ended the call and went to buy the snacks. She also got a few grilled sausages for herself, enjoying them while waiting for Julian. When Julian came out, he did not need to look for a sign with his name on it. He easily spotted Quinn.

Her image was imprinted in his mind, allowing him to recognize her immediately in the crowd, especially when Quinn was still enjoying her sausages. "Quinn."

Julian called her name first, and she noticed him dragging his suitcase and approaching her.
