Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

Food Ding Building.

As soon as Chu Xiaoyun arrived at the restaurant, the waiter came over with a smile on his face:

"Ms. Chu, you are here. Miss Yin is waiting for you in the box on the second floor. I will show you the way."

When I opened the door, Yin Qian was sitting and tasting the pastries on the table, with her personal maid standing behind her.

It seemed that no one else was seen.

Chu Xiaoyun felt a little disappointed, and after sitting next to her, she felt a little depressed:

"Why did you think of meeting at Shidinglou today?"

It was such a hot day and there was no ice cream in the restaurant. If the window hadn't been open and a cool breeze hadn't blown in from time to time, it would have been uncomfortable to stay there for a moment longer.

If you just want to eat, there is an ice jar at home to keep you cool and comfortable;

If you want to play, the lake and mountains outside the city are pleasant.

No matter how you look at it, any place is much more suitable than a restaurant.

A place like Shidinglou is quiet and private.

She picked this place on purpose, she thought...

Yin Qian noticed Chu Xiaoyun's disappointed expression and greeted her with a wicked smile:

"Sit down. Why, are you disappointed to see me?"

Chu Xiaoyun sat beside her, her lips slightly pursed, and said nothing.

Chunying closed the door, walked over to the two of them, and asked her young lady what she was too embarrassed to say:

"Miss Yin, didn't you say that Master Meng is back?"

"Yes, my cousin is back."

Yin Qian spoke as if nothing had happened, then was silent for a moment, then suddenly realized:

"Do you think today is my cousin..."

"Yin Qian! Tease me again, be careful or I will ignore you."

Chu Xiaoyun pushed her gently, her voice sounding both delicate and shy.

Yin Qian likes to tease her future cousin-in-law the most. When she loses her temper, her cheeks turn pink and she looks just the right amount of coquettish.

She wanted to tease him a few more times when she heard a bang behind the screen, as if something was knocked over.

Chu Xiaoyun was still a little confused, and then she heard Yin Qian raise her eyebrows at her and stood up helplessly:

"It seems that some people are putting women before girls. You can't stand being bullied."

"Cousin, I have found the person for you. Don't forget what you promised me."

Then she saw two men walking out from behind the screen.

Chu Xiaoyun stood up uncontrollably, her fingers entwined in the handkerchief and stirred it, her voice soft and sweet:

"Brother Wenjin."

Her eyes were focused on the man walking in front of her, and she paid no attention to anyone else.

The man walked over with faster steps and stood one step away from Chu Xiaoyun. His gentle voice was filled with patient joy:

"Sister Xiaoyun."

When Meng Wenjin saw Chu Xiaoyun, he couldn't bear to look away.

He hadn't seen her for more than a month. Since they had expressed their love for each other, they had never been apart for such a long time.

Seeing it now, the longing in my heart bursts out in an instant.

He had a lot to say to her, but he restrained himself when he saw Yin Qian.

Yin Qian stood aside and felt her teeth sour because of the atmosphere between them.

"Oh, it's still too hot here. I'm going to the window to get some fresh air."

The guests of Shidinglou are either rich or noble, so the private rooms used for talks are naturally spacious.

Yin Qian walked to the window, about two or three feet (seven or eight meters) away from Meng Wenjin and Chu Xiaoyun.

If the voices were lowered, she wouldn't be able to hear their conversation.

As for the maids and servants they brought with them, it didn't matter whether they were around or not. They would automatically become dumb and deaf, and would not reveal what happened to others.

After Yin Qian sat by the window "looking at the scenery", Chu Xiaoyun asked with concern:

"Brother Wenjin, has the journey been smooth?"

The flood was severe and refugees were fleeing. Pingyang City was far away from the capital and Chu Xiaoyun was worried about his safety because she didn't know the situation.

"It went smoothly. Don't worry, Xiaoyun. The officials in Pingyang City have already handled a lot of things, which has relieved a lot of my burden. I am also safe on the way there and back."

Meng Wenjin brushed aside the dangerous incident that had happened and comforted her with a gentle smile.

Chu Xiaoyun certainly knew that the disaster relief work would not be as easy as he said. As long as everyone was safe, she would not bother with the details.

Meng Wenjin looked a little tired, probably because he came to meet her not long after returning.

Chu Xiaoyun wanted him to have a good rest, but she also knew that he came here specially for a good reason, so she wouldn't send him home and spoil his fun.

Therefore, she deliberately picked some light-hearted topics, wrinkled her nose when she made the accusation, bit her lips in hatred, and rubbed them back and forth with gritted teeth.

"Brother Wenjin, you don't know how bad Qianqian is. When you were not around..."

The lively expressions were cute and funny, and the cheerful atmosphere took away the fatigue of the long journey.

Meng Wenjin put his hand to his lips and smiled softly, then said apologetically:

"It's her fault. How can she always bully Xiaoyun? I'll criticize her when we get back."

"So, as her brother, I will apologize on her behalf."

Meng Wenjin took out a long wooden box from her embroidery. On the box were carved branches of blooming peach blossoms with delicate patterns.

"What's inside?"

Chu Xiaoyun took the wooden box, stroked the carved patterns on it with her hand lingeringly, and asked expectantly.

"Xiao Yun, just open it and you'll know."

Meng Wenjin suppressed the urge to clear her up and fixed his gaze on the lock on the box.

Chu Xiaoyun opened the box, and a hairpin inlaid with pink peach blossoms came into view.

This hairpin is somewhat different from the ones sold in jewelry shops in the capital. The peach blossoms inlaid on it are not made of petals wrapped around each other, but are carved out of a whole piece of jade.

The complete flower shape and clear, thin petals almost look like fresh peach blossoms just picked from the tree, soft and charming.

"So beautiful!" Chu Xiaoyun couldn't help but admire.

Meng Wenjin took the peach blossom hairpin from her hand and inserted it into her hair, her voice full of tenderness:

"Pingyang City is famous for its jade carving skills. I happened to have a piece of pink jade with a special color, so I brought it over and asked them to make this hairpin."

Chu Xiaoyun sensed the faint bamboo scent coming from the person approaching her, and couldn't help but lower her head shyly.

Brother Wenjin is always like this, no matter where he is, he always remembers himself.

This hairpin was not an apology gift for Yin Qian. He had clearly prepared it for a long time and only gave it out in the name of apology.

Chu Xiaoyun was very happy, with her eyes curved.

"Thank you, Brother Wenjin. I like it very much."

"nice! You love it."

Meng Wenjin was also very happy, and when the two looked at each other, deep affection naturally flowed in their eyes.

They didn't chat for long alone. Not long after giving the hairpin to her, he called Yin Qian back to have lunch together.

During the meal, Meng Wenjin was very attentive. The fish that Chu Xiaoyun liked to eat had annoying fish bones, and he took the trouble to remove every bone.

Chu Xiaoyun just felt thirsty, and water of suitable temperature was delivered to her.

He was very good at doing similar things.

His love for Chu Xiaoyun was fully reflected in the tiny little things.

Que Yu, who was standing aside and serving food to Meng Wenjin, lowered his eyes as if thinking about something.
