Abstinence Pei, don't be too sweet when chasing your wife

As soon as the car drove into the ruins, Gu Fanxing saw colorful balloons hanging under the awning next to the exploration area. Red, yellow, and pink balloons were gently fluttering in the breeze, like a small rainbow.

Ling Jiuer was standing at the door waving, holding a small sign that read "Congratulations on the success of the Xingxing Lecture", her face full of excitement.

"Xingxing! President Pei! You're back!"

Ling Jiuer ran over and saw the sunflower in Gu Fanxing's hand. Her eyes lit up instantly and she reached out to touch the petals gently. "Wow! Sunflower! Is this a gift from President Pei? So romantic! It's even prettier than the roses I saw last time!"

Du Fei followed behind, holding an exquisite cake box in his hand, which was the style that Gu Fanxing liked.

He handed the cake box to Gu Fanxing and said with a smile, "The lecture was a success, so we specially prepared a celebratory cake. Come in and try it. There are also your favorite fruits in it. We bought them in the county town this morning, so they are very fresh."

The table under the awning had been cleaned and covered with a light blue tablecloth, with several dishes on it.

Stir-fried shrimps, steamed sea bass, tofu soup, and sweet and sour spare ribs are all Gu Fanxing and Ling Jiuer's favorites. Each dish is still steaming, obviously freshly prepared.

The cake box was placed in the middle of the table, and next to it were a few bottles of juice. It was the orange juice that Gu Fanxing liked to drink, without ice, and the temperature was just right.

"How do you know I like these dishes? And you prepared them so completely." Gu Fanxing looked at the dishes on the table, his eyes full of surprise and his heart warm.

"If I don't know what you like to eat, wouldn't it be a waste for me to be your best friend?" Ling Jiuer picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, and put it into Gu Fanxing's mouth.

Pei Luonan smiled and helped Gu Fanxing pull out a chair, put the sunflower in her hand on the small table next to her, and even found a small bottle, poured some water in it, and put the sunflower in it, for fear that the flower would wilt.

"Hurry up and sit down. Eat something. You only had a red bean paste bun this morning, and you stood for an hour during the lecture. You must be hungry." He poured a bowl of tofu soup for Gu Fanxing, blew it cool before handing it to her. "Eat slowly. Be careful of the heat."

Gu Fanxing took the tofu soup and took a sip. The sweet taste spread in her mouth. The tofu was cooked until soft and melted in her mouth, which was exactly the taste she liked.

She looked at Pei Luonan beside her. He was helping her pick up the sea bass, carefully picking out the fish bones, and then putting the fish meat into her bowl: "Eat more fish and replenish your nutrition. You have worked hard today."

Ling Jiuer watched this scene and deliberately looked at Du Fei and said, "Boss Pei, stop feeding us dog food!"

Du Fei was stunned for a moment, then immediately picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sea bass, and carefully picked out the fish bones. Although his movements were not as skillful as Pei Luonan's, he was extremely serious.

After picking, he put the fish meat into Ling Jiuer's bowl, his ears slightly red: "Eat quickly, be careful of the fish bones, I'll help you check again."

Ling Jiuer smiled and took a bite of the fish, feeling very satisfied.

Gu Fanxing couldn't help laughing when watching the interaction between the two, and Pei Luonan also laughed. The awning was filled with laughter, and even the wind was sweet.

After dinner, Ling Jiuer and Du Fei cleaned up the table. Ling Jiuer was responsible for wiping the table, and Du Fei was responsible for washing the dishes. The two worked together in perfect harmony. Pei Luonan took Gu Fanxing's hand and walked to the hillside next to the ruins.

It is evening now. The setting sun has dyed the sky orange-red, and the clouds look like they are dyed with paint. It is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.

The green grass on the hillside still has a faint fragrance, and occasionally a few birds fly by, chirping, as if accompanying this beautiful scenery.

Pei Luonan found a clean stone, wiped it with a tissue, and asked Gu Fanxing to sit down, fearing that she would catch a cold.

"Xingxing, I have something for you."

Pei Luonan took out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Gu Fanxing, his eyes showing a bit of nervousness and anticipation, "Open it and take a look."

Gu Fanxing took the box. The patterns on it were delicate and smooth, obviously it was carefully made.

She gently opened the box, revealing a silver pendant in the exact shape of a Qingning kiln porcelain bowl. Fine silver thread traced the bowl's surface, creating a twined pattern, just like the bowl she had discovered. On the back of the pendant, inscribed in small characters: "Porcelain of the stars, companion of Luonan, year after year."

"I had this custom-made by a silversmith," Pei Luonan picked up the pendant and helped her put it around her neck.

"I talked to the silversmith for a long time, asking him to carve the twined branches pattern exactly like the one on the porcelain bowl, without any deviation.

This fine silver wire craft is very difficult, and the silversmith took three attempts to get it right. I chose pure silver, which is not prone to allergies and can be worn all the time.

Gu Fanxing touched the pendant on her neck. The cold silver touched her skin, but it warmed her heart.

Under the setting sun, the silver has a faint luster and the texture is clearly visible, as if the beauty of the "Qingning Kiln Porcelain Bowl" is condensed in this pendant.

"Luonan, this is the best gift I have ever received."

Gu Fanxing looked up at Pei Luonan, her eyes full of tears, but she smiled and spoke with a choked voice.

"It is more memorable than any jewelry."

"As long as you like it."

Pei Luonan reached out and held her in his arms, feeling her warmth.

"Xingxing, I always thought that archaeology was the most important passion in your life, and all I could do was support you.

But now I realize that accompanying you in discovering porcelain fragments, organizing materials, sharing the joy of discovery, and facing the difficulties we encounter has become the most important thing in my life and my passion."

He looked into her eyes, his eyes full of seriousness, as if making an important promise: "In the future, let's tell the story of 'Qingning Kiln' to more people, discover more cultural relics together, and go to more places to watch the sunset together, okay?"

Gu Fanxing nodded vigorously, and finally couldn't help but let her tears fall, but she smiled particularly brightly.

She buried her face in his arms, feeling his heartbeat and warmth.

"Okay, let's go on together. I want to discover more porcelain pieces with you, watch more sunsets together, and spend the years together."

The setting sun gradually sank behind the mountain, and the afterglow fell on the two people, like two silhouettes clinging to each other.

Gu Fanxing touched the pendant on her neck, felt Pei Luonan's embrace, and her heart was filled with happiness.

She knew that this happiness came not only from her achievements in archaeology and the company of her friends, but also from the person next to her - he understood her passion, cared about her hard work, regarded her dreams as his own, and her joys and sorrows as his own.

Ling Jiuer's voice came from a distance: "Xingxing! President Pei! Come back soon! The cake is melting!"

Pei Luonan held Gu Fanxing's hand and walked back.

Gu Fanxing looked at Pei Luonan beside her. There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth and his eyes were full of love.

She suddenly felt that the days ahead would be the happiest with him by her side.

Their love, like this "Qingning Kiln Porcelain Bowl", has become more precious with the passage of time.

Like this sunset, warm and firm, it can dispel all the coldness and uneasiness.

When they returned to the awning, Ling Jiuer handed the biggest piece of cake to Gu Fanxing.

Gu Fanxing took a bite of the cake, the fragrance of cream mixed with fruit spread in her mouth, and her heart was filled with sweetness.

She looked at Pei Luonan, Ling Jiuer and Du Fei beside her, and suddenly felt that this was the happiest life - having a career she loved, close friends, and someone she loved.

As the night deepened, the lights in the tent lit up, like little moons.

Gu Fanxing sat in the tent, touching the pendant around her neck with a smile on her lips.

She knew that their story was still going on, her love with Pei Luonan was still continuing, and all of this would become the most precious and beautiful memory of the years, just like this "Qingning Kiln Porcelain Bowl".
