She went to the wrong table on a blind date and ended up getting married to a billionaire CEO.

As they were talking, Lin Manlin arrived.

She was also surprised when she saw the design drawings; she certainly knew Su Maiqi's capabilities.

How can such a perfect design be created in such a short time?

"Qiqi, how did you do that? It's amazing!"

Su Maiqi was a little embarrassed by the praise: "Actually, I didn't expect to be able to design it so quickly. I looked at the jade yesterday and even took photos from different angles."

I was thinking of taking it back and designing it slowly. But last night before going to sleep, I suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and just drew it based on that feeling.

"What inspired you last night? It felt like you were filled with tenderness and beauty when you were drawing."

The brushstrokes are so fluid; you can tell it was done in one go, in a very pleasant and relaxed state.

Lin Manlin was genuinely curious. She understood design and she also knew Su Maiqi.

Upon hearing this question, Su Maiqi suddenly felt guilty.

Gu Tingyu keenly noticed that Su Maiqi's face was a little red, and a smile couldn't help but rise in his heart.

Seeing Su Maiqi pause for a moment, she pretended to be calm and said, "It's nothing. I went to the hot springs last night. The moonlight was so beautiful, and everything felt so lovely. I was in a great mood."

Gu Tingyu couldn't help but smile; last night was indeed wonderful.

This beautiful feeling inspired Su Maiqi to design a work about love.

He gave Su Maiqi a meaningful look, and it was rare to see her blush and feel flustered.

Although she disguised herself well and appeared calm, Gu Tingyu keenly sensed her unease.

Because only the two of them know the secret from last night.

That's enough to make someone happy.

This was the scene that Xiao Mohan saw when he entered the restaurant.

The other three were all marveling at the design drawings.

Pei Rong really liked Biquan Valley, this quiet place surrounded by bamboo forests.

Su Maiqi's design has a distinct Biquan Valley style.

A scene appeared before Pei Rong's eyes:

The bracelet resembles a winding and elegant path through a bamboo forest.

Violet gemstones are cleverly set at both ends of the bracelet, like flowers blooming quietly in a bamboo forest.

She held Su Maiqi's hand tightly: "Thank you, Qiqi, you really understand us."

Xiao Mohan noticed that Su Maiqi was actually a little absent-minded, and both she and Gu Tingyu were behaving strangely; it seemed as if they were trying their best to cover up something, a secret that belonged to the two of them.

He whistled merrily and walked forward: "Designer Su, you truly live up to your reputation. You and Gu Tingyu are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."

For some reason, Su Maiqi felt that Xiao Mohan's gaze towards her was somewhat meaningful.

Just as he was wondering how to react, Gu Tingyu lightly punched Xiao Mohan: "You're so talkative. You're so late. Everyone's waiting for you to eat."

The group then went off to eat at the buffet and enjoy the delicious food.

After breakfast, today's activity is to participate in the Biquan Valley meditation retreat.

Today's special activity is "Walking Meditation," a practice that deeply connects us with nature and ourselves.

Participants were instructed to put down their phones, remain silent, refrain from any communication, and even avoid eye contact, in order to experience a pure state of being and inner peace.

Feel the sensation of your feet touching the earth, the wind on your skin, and observe every leaf, every cloud, and everything within your sight.

Touch with your hands, smell with your nose, open all your senses, and embrace this world.

In the afternoon, the sunlight in Biquan Valley is gentle, the bamboo forest sways softly, and there is a sense of tranquility and peace.

Several people handed in their phones and kept them safe.

Following our mentor, we ventured deep into the bamboo forest and began this silent hike.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, casting dappled shadows on them.

Their steps were light and slow, and each contact of their feet with the earth was a profound dialogue with nature.

As walking meditation progressed, they began to observe the plants around them; every leaf and every bamboo stalk became an object of their silent communication.

They learned to feel each other's presence without words, and to listen to the voice of their own hearts in silence.

They became objects of observation in each other's eyes, which was a unique experience.

Time slows down, and our senses are amplified.

This was Lin Manlin's first time participating in such an event, and she was a little uncomfortable at first.

Gradually, I truly turned my attention back to myself and began to feel a sense of tranquility.

In the bamboo groves, Lin Manlin saw a very large tree, which must have been an old tree that had grown before the area was built.

It was left behind during the unified planning process.

It felt as thick as two people could hug. Seeing this tree, Lin Manlin felt a strange sense of familiarity.

She followed her instincts and walked to the front of the tree.

There are many large, damaged sections on the tree trunk caused by insects.

The tree canopy is still growing lush and verdant.

Lin Manlin touched the tree trunk with her hand, and a surge of warmth welled up in her heart.

She stretched out her hands, hugged the tree tightly, turned her face to the side, pressed her head against the tree, and felt a sense of security she had never felt before.

It's a very magical feeling.

Tears inexplicably fell.

It was as if she understood all the stories of this tree.

The tree understands her too.

She let herself sink into this feeling of security.

In the distance, Xiao Mohan was experiencing the feeling of his feet firmly planted on the ground.

Feel your own breath. Each breath seems to be in sync with the surrounding bamboo forest.

A wonderful, quiet feeling.

As he walked, he saw Lin Manlin's figure, a small girl hugging a tree.

He pressed himself so hard against the tree trunk, as if trying to become part of the tree.

In that instant, he seemed to sense Lin Manlin's sadness and helplessness.

It's so tiny.

That tree, like a father and a mother, seemed to offer her safety and comfort.

Her presence was almost one with the tree.

He saw her silent posture, so peaceful and at ease, as if her soul had found its home in this tree.

He's no longer the boisterous, tomboyish boy he used to be.

Instead, she became a very, very small little girl.

He felt a slight pain in his chest.

The pain was very subtle, like the thinnest hair.

Yet it was so clear and vivid.

I haven't felt this way in many years.

He paused for a moment, then suddenly turned and walked in another direction.

He tried his best to follow the teacher's instructions, bringing his attention back to his breathing and to every feeling he had in the present moment.

Feel the sensation of your feet touching the ground.

The scene from just now is hard to completely erase from my mind.
