Looking at Zhou Minghe's handsome face, I felt mixed emotions. While choosing clothes, I lowered my voice and asked him, "I don't think I've asked you yet, what wish did you come here to fulfill?"

Zhou Minghe's fingers landed on a bright red, festive groom's brocade robe. He pinched the sleeve and said nonchalantly, "Two years ago, my mother prayed for a marriage for me."

My whole body trembled and I stared at him blankly.

Among these layers of clothes hangers, isolated from the hustle and bustle around him, he looked at me with a smile, and his expression seemed to say that I was the person he brought here specifically to fulfill a vow.

I swallowed subconsciously and tried to change the subject, but Zhou Minghe placed his hand on the back of my hand and placed it against my festive brocade robe. "Why don't you ask anymore?"

"Aren't you done asking?" I avoided the warmth of his palm guiltily and immediately turned elsewhere to look at the clothes.

Zhou Minghe followed me slowly and said in a low voice, "It seems that you don't know what it means to fulfill a vow."

I stopped and saw a lot of beautiful pearl hairpins nearby. I pretended to look at them carefully and said vaguely, "I'm not sure. Anyway, in my opinion, burning incense and praying to Buddha means hoping that I will get better and better."

Zhou Minghe walked up to me, and suddenly, he stretched out his hand, and just clamped my chin with his palm, lifting up my whole face and asking me to look him in the eye.

I couldn't help but frown and twisted my neck slightly, not wanting him to play with me.

"Jingjing, fulfilling a vow means that your wish has come true, and you come here to burn incense and pray, and donate money and materials to show your gratitude. Do you understand?" Zhou Minghe explained this to me in great detail.

I roughly understood, but I still looked at him in confusion: "You're praying for marriage, but has your wish come true? You haven't even found a wife yet."

Zhou Minghe was amused by my words. With a hint of resentment, he pinched my cheek and said, "Who said you have to be married before coming here? Didn't I bring the person I like here directly? Let the gods know that you are the marriage I prayed for."

My heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason, and I immediately jokingly teased him, "Stop it, I'm not."

"You are." Zhou Minghe suddenly became angry: "If you don't accompany me to take photos of this new groom's suit today, you will see how I will deal with you."

I couldn't help but shudder: "Don't be ridiculous, we are taking a photo now, not a photo of two people."

Zhou Minghe looked at me strangely: "Can you film the gods too?"

I rolled my eyes at him and gently stroked my belly: "I can't possibly be pregnant with someone else's child and take such a traditional photo with you. This would be a blasphemy to the gods who made a wish for you."

My words made Zhou Minghe's eyes darken instantly. The next second, he pulled me into his arms and hugged me: "I don't mind, so why do you mind?"

His embrace carries a scent that is unique to him, a faint scent of cold mint. The more you smell it, the more familiar and reassuring it becomes.

I buried my face in his chest, against his warm sweater, and seemed to hear his rapid heartbeat.

The shop owner next to us was a middle-aged woman. She asked us in a loud voice, "Young men, have you picked out your clothes? Come over here and get your hair styled."

My face flushed instantly, I stood up from his arms and pushed him: "Haven't you chosen it yet? Go change your clothes quickly."

"Do I take the photo alone?" Zhou Minghe asked unhappily.

"I'll accompany you." I pursed my lips and smiled.

Zhou Minghe's face finally smiled again. Following the proprietress's suggestion, I picked out a festive red ancient costume and went in to change.

"It will take a little longer to make up a woman's outfit. Young man, please wait for a moment and pick out a groom's hat first. Oh, that one belongs to the top scholar, so don't pick the wrong one."

Zhou Minghe sat next to me holding a hat and watched me put on makeup. My skin was delicate and fair, and the makeup artist kept praising me for my good skin care.

Zhou Minghe was beside him, saying, "She's still very young, only 20 years old. How could she not be good?"

I stared at him in the mirror, he didn't say anything, and no one thought he was mute.

"Only twenty years old? Still a college student, right? Wow, you two are such a pleasing couple, you're a perfect match." The makeup artist praised sweetly.

I used my eyes to signal Zhou Minghe to stop talking nonsense, but he smiled and replied in a funny way: "Yes, we are still students, skipping classes to come here for tourism."

After finishing my makeup, I put on a headgear and transformed myself into a beauty in ancient costume.

My eyes were bright and mischievous. Zhou Minghe glanced at me from time to time. He couldn't stare at me openly, but he kept peeking at me for a long time.

Finally, the two of us sat in front of the arranged scenery. First, we took a frontal photo, with the two of us sitting in a dignified manner, and took a photo.

Then the boss brought over a big red flower and asked us to take a photo together. Finally, Zhou Minghe took the hydrangea I threw out, and I leaned in his arms and took a photo.

There were several solo photos of us. In order to let us choose more photos, the boss took more than 50 photos in one go. I was really impressed.

"I want all the photos, and put them into this USB drive for me." Zhou Minghe made a direct request when paying.

The boss smiled so hard that his eyes were curved. After taking care of it for us, he even printed out several copies on the spot for us to take away.

I looked at the photo, feeling a bit dazed.

"It's pretty." Zhou Minghe came over and praised softly, "It's mainly because you're pretty."

I breathed a sigh of relief and put the photos away.

Time always flies quickly when we are happy. After visiting West Lake and having lunch, we returned to the hotel.

Zhou Minghe was still not satisfied, so he suggested while driving: "Next time, let's go somewhere else. Where else do you want to go?"

I looked at the scenery and the crowd outside the window and whispered, "I want to finish my work first and think about fun later."

"Isn't it good to work and enjoy life at the same time?" Zhou Minghe looked at me.

I shook my head. “I’m different from you. I like to finish important things first, and then think about relaxing things.”

After returning to the hotel, we packed up and went to find Li Hang to return the car to him.

Li Hang insisted on inviting us to stay in Hangzhou for another night, so that night he treated us to dinner at an antique restaurant.

While we were having dinner, several beauties in ancient costumes came over to dance. In the huge private room, enchanting music was playing. The women had delicate figures and their sleeves danced as softly as willow branches.

Zhou Minghe was watching the beautiful woman dancing, and I couldn't help but look at him. I found that all men have a common problem, which is that they love to look at beautiful women. However, I love to look at them more than they do.

After the dance was over and they had a very enjoyable dinner, Li Hang said that he wanted to continue to the next show and sing, but Zhou Minghe refused, saying that it was not convenient for him this time.

When Li Hang heard that it was inconvenient, he immediately looked at us with an ambiguous look: "I see, this is a good time, we can't miss it."

When Zhou Minghe said it was inconvenient, he meant that I was pregnant and it was inconvenient for me to go to noisy places, but Li Hang thought that we should seize the time to do other things.

Back at the hotel, Zhou Minghe joked in the elevator, "Wouldn't the dance just now be more beautiful if you were the one to do it?"

I snorted softly, "When others dance, aren't you watching intently?"

Zhou Minghe shrugged: "Pure appreciation, no other thoughts."

I nodded. "That's true. Why don't you find some good-looking men to dance for me?"

When Zhou Minghe heard this, the elevator dinged. He walked silently towards the room and opened the door.

Then he turned up the heater and took off his suit shirt right in front of me. He stood before me in just his trousers. The blood vessels surging through his thin muscles gave off a dangerous aura. He looked at me with interest: "Don't you want to see a man dance? I'll dance for you, do you want to?"

He made me blush and my eyes were filled with fear. Could Zhou Minghe be any crazier?
