Shen Meizhuang and Wen Shichu were the only ones left in the carriage. Caiyue sensibly closed the door and walked away to wait.

Shen Meizhuang looked at Caiyue's receding back, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart: This girl is really smart! She knows what she wants, and she also knows how to create opportunities for herself and Wen Shichu to be alone.

Shen Meizhuang secretly thanked herself for having such a smart and considerate personal maid.

However, despite being ecstatic in her heart, Shen Meizhuang still maintained a gentle and virtuous expression on her face.

She lowered her head slightly, opened her red lips and said, "Shichu, sit closer."

When Wen Shichu heard Shen Meizhuang's words, he raised his head and his eyes met hers. His eyes were deep and gentle.

Shen Meizhuang was attracted involuntarily, and her eyes gradually stayed on Wen Shichu's handsome face.

His facial features were distinct, and his lips were slightly upturned under his high nose bridge, revealing a kind of confidence and calmness. In Shen Meizhuang's eyes, Wen Shichu was undoubtedly the most handsome man in front of her, and no one could compare to him.

Ever since Wen Shichu expressed his feelings to Shen Meizhuang on the night of the Qiqiao Festival in Gulan City, Shen Meizhuang finally felt less inferior. She could see that Wen Shichu was sincere towards her.

After hearing Shen Meizhuang's words, Wen Shichu slowly moved his body towards Shen Meizhuang, getting a little closer to her.

Although he was still a little shy, he knew that he could not back down at this moment. He had to show the grace and courage that a man should have, and not appear too restrained and uneasy.

So he straightened his back and tried his best to make his expression look natural and calm.

As the distance got closer, Wen Shichu felt the faint fragrance emanating from Shen Meizhuang. This breath was like a clear spring, which gradually calmed his mood.

He glanced secretly at Shen Meizhuang, and saw that her eyes were gentle and firm, as if giving him silent encouragement.

Recalling that night, the night of the Qiqiao Festival, he and Shen Meizhuang, after they had finished lighting the lanterns, returned to the inn. In the inn, he sent Shen Meizhuang back to her room, and Shen Meizhuang suddenly said inexplicably:

"Shichu, it's a beautiful night tonight. I want to have a few drinks to celebrate. Would you like to accompany me?"

After hearing this, Wen Shichu thought that tonight was indeed a good day for the two to confirm their feelings to each other, and it was also the Qiqiao Festival in Gulan City, so they were a perfect match made in heaven.

So Wen Shichu said: "Okay, as long as you want, I will accompany you."

At this moment, A Jin and Cai Yue had not returned yet, so Wen Shichu could only go find the waiter to prepare some wine and food.

After the wine and food were served, Shen Meizhuang slowly stood up and locked the door. She didn't want anyone to disturb her and Wen Shichu from celebrating their love.

When Wen Shichu saw Shen Meizhuang's behavior, he understood it very well. Neither of them wanted to be disturbed by others.

Wen Shichu poured two glasses of wine, then picked up some food for Shen Meizhuang and said, "Mei'er, come, eat some food first, then drink, otherwise you will hurt your stomach and I will be very sad."

When Shen Meizhuang heard Wen Shichu's caring and thoughtful attitude towards her, the corners of her mouth slightly raised and she said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Shen Meizhuang also picked up some dishes for Wen Shichu, and then the two of them began to eat with smiles on their faces.

Shen Meizhuang picked up the wine glass, clinked it lightly with Wen Shichu, and then drank it all in one gulp.

The two of them drank one cup after another and had already eaten most of the food on the table.

As the alcohol gradually took effect, her cheeks flushed and her eyes became blurry.

"Shichu, I'm so happy today." Shen Meizhuang said with a smile, and raised one hand to gently hold Wen Shichu's hand.

Wen Shichu looked at her, his heart full of love, "Mei'er, we will have many more happy days together in the future."

As the two drank and chatted, the topic unknowingly turned to the future.

"Shichu, what do you think will happen to us in the future?" Shen Meizhuang asked. Her mind was not clear at the moment. She hoped to stay unclear forever so that she would not have to face the realistic obstacles in the future.

Wen Shichu held her hand and said seriously, "I hope we can stay together forever, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we will never leave each other."

When Shen Meizhuang heard this, her eyes turned red. Wen Shichu immediately stood up with heartache and hugged her in his arms.

Shen Meizhuang's blood began to flow faster in Wen Shichu's warm hug.

She felt very hot. It was summer and the weather was hot. Being hugged by Wen Shichu like this made her feel even hotter.

"It's hot, so hot..." Shen Meizhuang murmured.

She couldn't help but struggle to take off her clothes. Wen Shichu didn't want to take advantage of Shen Meizhuang. He used the last bit of rationality after drinking to tell himself that he was a gentleman and couldn't take advantage of someone in distress.

So Wen Shichu gently helped Shen Meizhuang take off her outer robe.

Then, he gently picked up Shen Meizhuang, carefully placed her on the bed, and covered her stomach with a thin sheet to prevent her from catching a cold at night. He then planned to sneak away through the window so as not to be seen by others.

However, just as Wen Shichu was about to stand up and leave, Shen Meizhuang suddenly found strength from nowhere, and reached out to grab Wen Shichu, holding him tightly and refusing to let go.

Wen Shichu was caught off guard and fell forward, his face right in front of Shen Meizhuang's x.

It made him dizzy, as if the alcohol had completely numbed all his nerves at that moment.

At the same time, Shen Meizhuang's soft and tender voice came to Wen Shichu's ears: "Shichu, don't go, don't leave me alone..."

This sentence was like a spell that he could not resist. He knew very well that being able to gain Shen Meizhuang's love was already a blessing from heaven.

He secretly swore that he would be responsible for Shen Meizhuang to the end and do his best to protect her for the rest of her life, even if it meant paying any price, even if it meant dying.

Then, the clothes on the bed were thrown down one by one, accompanied by low humming and singing, and the whole room was filled with a strong ambiguous atmosphere.

The next day, at daybreak, Wen Shichu got up carefully, afraid of disturbing Shen Meizhuang's sleep, and then climbed out of the second-floor window to his own room next door.

....................................

Shen Meizhuang saw that Wen Shichu's face was red and his eyes looked a little dazed, so she patted his smiling face and said, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about? Why are you so absorbed in it?"

Wen Shichu finally came back to his senses, and the events of that night seemed to be still vivid in his mind. He was really ashamed, but Shen Meizhuang was calmer than him.

Wen Shichu put his arm around Shen Meizhuang's shoulders and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Mei'er, I will never let you down in this life. Do you believe me?"
