Chapter 135 Life Never Stops
Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze suddenly realized that since having their baby, they hadn't spent much time alone together in a long time.

The two exchanged a glance, and an idea welled up in their minds—to leave the children behind and have a long-awaited date.

That night, after putting the baby to sleep, Lu Mingze quietly closed the bedroom door, returned to the living room, sat down next to Jiang Yun, took her hand and said, "Honey, we haven't had a proper outing in a long time. The baby is going to early childhood education class tomorrow, how about we go on a date?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes, followed by some hesitation: "But baby... is it okay?"

Lu Mingze held her hand tightly and comforted her, "The baby has teachers taking care of him at the early education class, so there will definitely be no problem. We should relax too."

Jiang Yun thought for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, then let's go on a date tomorrow."

The next morning, Jiang Yun got up early and dressed up carefully.

She pulled out the dress she hadn't worn in a long time, stood in front of the mirror, and looked at her slightly tired but still beautiful reflection, a sense of anticipation welling up inside her.

Lu Mingze also put on the shirt that Jiang Yun liked the most. Looking at each other looking refreshed, they both smiled.

After dropping their baby off at the early education center, they walked out of the center hand in hand.

The sunlight shone on them, warm and comforting.

Lu Mingze looked at Jiang Yun and said with a smile, "It feels like we're back to when we were dating."

Jiang Yun lightly punched him: "You're so good at talking."

They arrived at the shopping mall they used to frequent. Upon entering, the familiar surroundings brought back many memories.

They strolled hand in hand, and as they passed a jewelry store, Jiang Yun was drawn to a necklace in the window.

Lu Mingze followed her gaze and said with a smile, "Do you like it? Go in and try it on."

Jiang Yun said somewhat embarrassedly, "Let's forget it, it's quite expensive."

Lu Mingze pulled her into the store: "We're on a date today, so we should have fun. Buy whatever you like."

At Lu Mingze's insistence, Jiang Yun tried on the necklace.

The necklace adorned her fair neck, perfectly highlighting her elegant demeanor.

Lu Mingze looked at Jiang Yun with admiration in his eyes: "It's really beautiful, this is the one."

As he spoke, he asked the shop assistant to wrap it up.

Jiang Yun looked at Lu Mingze, her heart filled with emotion.

After leaving the jewelry store, they went to a dessert shop.

This dessert shop was a place they used to frequent when they went on dates, and the interior decoration was still as cozy as before.

They found a window seat, ordered a tiramisu (which they both loved) and two coffees.

Jiang Yun gently scooped a spoonful of tiramisu into her mouth, and the familiar taste instantly spread in her mouth. She closed her eyes in satisfaction: "It still tastes the same, it's so delicious."

Looking at her adorable appearance, Lu Mingze couldn't help but smile: "Eat more if you like it."

As the two enjoyed their desserts, they reminisced about the past, their laughter echoing throughout the dessert shop.

After finishing their dessert, Lu Mingze checked the time and said to Jiang Yun, "Honey, let's go see a movie. It's been so long since we've gone to the movies together."

Jiang Yun readily agreed. They went to the cinema and chose a romantic movie.

Sitting in the movie theater, Jiang Yun leaned on Lu Mingze's shoulder, and Lu Mingze gently put his arm around her shoulder. The male and female protagonists in the movie went through many twists and turns before finally getting together.

Looking at the scene on the screen, Jiang Yun couldn't help but sigh, "We've been through a lot, just like them, before we had the happy life we ​​have now." Lu Mingze gently squeezed her hand, "Yes, that's why we should cherish it even more."

After watching the movie, it was already noon. They went to a Western restaurant to enjoy a romantic lunch.

The restaurant has an elegant ambiance and soothing music.

The waiter handed them the menu, and Lu Mingze handed it to Jiang Yun: "Wife, take a look and see what you want to eat."

Jiang Yun looked at the menu and ordered a steak and a pasta dish. Lu Mingze also ordered his favorite dishes. Soon, all the dishes were served. Lu Mingze skillfully cut the steak for Jiang Yun, who watched him with a smile. The two ate and chatted, enjoying this rare moment of alone time together.

After lunch, they went to the park. The park was shaded by green trees and the lake water was clear.

They strolled slowly along the lake, feeling the gentle caress of the breeze.

As they passed a grassy area, Lu Mingze suddenly grabbed Jiang Yun's hand: "Wife, let's sit here for a while."

The two sat on the grass, watching the white clouds drift across the sky, and Jiang Yun felt exceptionally relaxed. Lu Mingze lay on the grass, holding Jiang Yun's hand, and said, "It's been so long since I've felt this relaxed. It's so good to have you by my side."

Jiang Yun lay down beside him and gently leaned on his shoulder: "Me too, I'm really happy today."

After resting for a while, they got up and continued their walk. As they walked, Lu Mingze saw a cotton candy stall ahead and said to Jiang Yun, "Wife, wait for me."

With that, he ran over and bought a large cotton candy. He handed the cotton candy to Jiang Yun: "Do you remember the cotton candy I bought you on our first date?"

Jiang Yun took the cotton candy and said with a smile, "Of course I remember, we were both so young and naive back then." The two ate the cotton candy while reminiscing about the good old days, as if they had returned to that carefree period of their love.

Before they knew it, it was already afternoon, and it was time for them to pick up their baby.

Although they were a little reluctant to part, they both knew that this day's date had deepened their relationship. Hand in hand, they walked out of the park to greet their adorable baby.

When the baby arrived at the early education center, he excitedly ran over to his parents.

Lu Mingze picked up the baby and kissed his cheek: "Baby, were you a good boy at the early education class today?"

The baby nodded vigorously: "Good boy/girl, I saw a lot of pretty flowers today."

Jiang Yun smiled and patted the baby's head: "Baby is so great."

On the way home, the baby sat in the back seat, excitedly talking about the fun things that happened at the early education class, while Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze looked at each other and smiled in the front row.

After returning home, Jiang Yun began preparing dinner, while Lu Mingze played with the baby in the living room.

The baby showed Lu Mingze the drawing he had made at the early childhood education class: "Daddy, look, this is a flower I drew." Lu Mingze looked at the baby's drawing and praised, "Baby, you drew so well, much better than Daddy."

The baby laughed happily upon hearing this.

Dinner was ready, and the family sat around the table, enjoying the delicious food.

The baby ate with great relish, and Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze kept putting food on the baby's plate.

Seeing the baby's contented expression, the couple felt a surge of happiness.

After dinner, Lu Mingze took the initiative to clear the dishes and wash them in the kitchen.

Jiang Yun was in the living room with her baby, looking at picture books and telling stories. The baby listened attentively, occasionally asking questions, which Jiang Yun patiently answered.

After the baby finished his bath, Lu Mingze and Jiang Yun put the baby to sleep together.

Looking at the baby's sleeping face, the two quietly left the room and went to the living room.

Lu Mingze sat on the sofa, took Jiang Yun's hand and said, "I really had a great time today. We should try to find more time to go on dates in the future."

Jiang Yun leaned on his shoulder and nodded: "Yes, even after having a baby, we can't neglect each other." The two sat quietly for a while, enjoying this moment of peace.

As night deepened, Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze returned to their room to rest.

Lying in bed, the two embraced and fell asleep. This day's date rekindled the feelings they had when they were dating, and made them cherish each other and their happy home even more.

The morning sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains, gently illuminating Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze's faces.

Jiang Yun slowly woke up. Lu Mingze was still fast asleep beside her, his face looking particularly gentle in the morning light.

Jiang Yun looked at him quietly, her heart filled with tenderness. She gently reached out, wanting to brush a strand of hair from his forehead.

Perhaps sensing her movement, Lu Mingze slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was Jiang Yun's affectionate gaze.

He smiled slightly, revealing a doting expression, his voice still hoarse from just waking up: "Good morning, my darling."

As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Yun closer to him and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Jiang Yun blushed slightly and said reproachfully, "You're such a grown-up, yet you still act like a child."

Despite saying that, her arms unconsciously wrapped around Lu Mingze's waist.

The two embraced each other, enjoying this peaceful and sweet moment.

After a while, Jiang Yun gently nudged Lu Mingze: "Get up quickly, the baby will wake up soon, and we still need to prepare breakfast for him."

Lu Mingze hugged her even tighter, pleading, "Let me hug you a little longer, it's rare for me to feel so relaxed."

Jiang Yun smiled helplessly and had no choice but to comply with him.

A few minutes later, Lu Mingze finally let go of her hand with satisfaction and got up with Jiang Yun.

The two arrived at the baby's room. The baby was already awake, lying on the bed playing with his little toes. When he saw his parents come in, he immediately showed a bright smile and stretched out his arms for a hug.

Lu Mingze picked up the baby and held him high in the air, and the baby giggled excitedly.

Jiang Yun watched the father and son from the side, her eyes filled with happiness.

After breakfast, Lu Mingze took the initiative to wash the dishes, while Jiang Yun wiped the table.

The two would occasionally exchange glances, their eyes conveying a silent love.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Lu Mingze gently hugged Jiang Yun from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder: "Wife, let's go out and have fun again today, just the two of us."

Jiang Yun turned around, looked at his expectant eyes, and nodded: "Okay, but we need to find a suitable childcare provider for the baby first."

Lu Mingze immediately took out his phone and began contacting a childcare center they had previously visited.

After some communication, the time and details of the childcare arrangement were finalized. Once everything was settled, Lu Mingze excitedly pulled Jiang Yun along: "Come on, wife, let's get ready to go."

After dressing up carefully, the two left their home.

The sun shines exceptionally brightly today, just like their mood at this moment.

Lu Mingze held Jiang Yun's hand and strolled down the street. They passed a flower shop, and Jiang Yun's eyes were drawn to the colorful flowers in the shop.

Lu Mingze smiled and said, "Wife, let me buy you a bouquet of flowers."

Before Jiang Yun could answer, he went into the store, carefully selected a bouquet of pink roses, and handed it to Jiang Yun: "You are as beautiful and charming as these roses."

Jiang Yun took the flowers, smelled their faint fragrance, and smiled happily. She gently punched Lu Mingze and said, "You're so sweet-talking."

They arrived at a handmade pottery studio, which Lu Mingze had found online beforehand.

The two put on aprons, sat in front of the pottery table, and learned to make pottery from the teacher.

Jiang Yun looked at the clay in her hands, somewhat at a loss, while Lu Mingze patiently guided her from the side.

He gently took Jiang Yun's hand and guided her to mold the clay into various shapes.

During this process, their hands would touch each other from time to time, and each touch would stir a sweet ripple in their hearts.

During the making process, Jiang Yun accidentally got clay on her face, and Lu Mingze couldn't help but laugh when he saw her comical appearance.

Jiang Yun pretended to be angry and glared at him, then took advantage of his inattention and smeared some clay on his face.

The two of them playfully teased each other, filling the once quiet pottery studio with their laughter.

Finally, together they completed a somewhat irregular but loving ceramic piece. Looking at this result that embodied their joint efforts, they smiled at each other.

It was already noon when I came out of the pottery studio.

Lu Mingze took Jiang Yun to a Japanese restaurant that she had always wanted to visit but had been unable to because of her baby.

Stepping into the shop, the warm decor and subtle aroma of tea immediately put you in a good mood.

They found a seat by the window and the waiter handed them the menu.

Knowing that Jiang Yun liked sashimi, Lu Mingze ordered a lavish sashimi platter, along with some other specialty dishes.

While waiting for the food to be served, Lu Mingze poured Jiang Yun a cup of barley tea, looked into her eyes and said, "Thank you so much for all you've done for this family. You've worked so hard."

Hearing this, Jiang Yun felt a warmth in her heart, and her eyes welled up with tears: "Silly boy, this is what I should do. We are family. And with you and the baby by my side, I feel very happy."

As she spoke, she reached out and gently took Lu Mingze's hand. The two gazed at each other deeply, and everything around them seemed to blur; at that moment, they saw only each other.

Soon, the dishes were served one after another. Lu Mingze carefully prepared the dipping sauce for Jiang Yun and placed a slice of fresh salmon on her plate: "Try it, the sashimi at this restaurant is very fresh."

Jiang Yun took a small bite, the tender fish meat melting in her mouth. She nodded with satisfaction, "Mmm, it's really delicious. You should try some too."

As she spoke, she picked up a piece of fish and handed it to Lu Mingze. Lu Mingze opened his mouth, took the fish that Jiang Yun handed him, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

The two chatted and laughed during the meal.
