Urban drama: Me! I collide with Bei Weiwei at the very beginning.

After Zhen Shaoxiang finished speaking, he laughed twice.

"By the way, I've never asked you before, what were you doing in such a hurry the other day?"

Zhen Shaoxiang looked at Gu Man.

Gu Man glanced at him: "When was it? I don't remember either."

Seeing that Gu Man didn't want to talk about it, Zhen Shaoxiang wisely didn't continue the topic.

"(chbi) No matter what, I'm really lucky to have met you."

Zhen Shaoxiang held Gu Man's hand tightly, gazing at her with deep affection.

Gu Man turned his face forward: "Look ahead, don't look at me."

"Row well, my life is in your hands now."

Zhen Shaoxiang laughed twice.

"Not only your life, but you are mine too."

As he spoke, he gripped Gu Man's hand even tighter.

"How can you be so shameless?" Gu Man gently kicked him.

The two of them fell silent, quietly admiring the beautiful scenery ahead.

Zhen Shaoxiang and Gu Man continued rowing on the river.

The two held hands tightly, enjoying the peace and beauty.

The banks of the river are shaded by green trees, and a gentle breeze carries the fragrance of flowers.

They chatted from time to time, sharing their stories, and their laughter and conversations echoed across the river.

Zhen Shaoxiang rowed the boat, glancing back at Gu Man from time to time.

She closed her eyes, a happy smile on her face.

He thought she was so beautiful, like a flower on the riverbank, making one want to cherish her.

Suddenly, a whirlpool appeared on the river. Zhen Shaoxiang's heart raced, and he quickly adjusted his direction.

But the boat lost its balance in the river. He frantically tried to adjust the boat's direction, but to no avail.

He glanced at Gu Man; she still had her eyes closed, seemingly unaware of the danger.

Just then, a large white goose swam past them.

It stretched its neck as if deliberately provoking, and touched the side of the boat with its mouth.

Zhen Shaoxiang had a sudden inspiration. He imitated the movements of a white goose, using one hand to brace against the side of the boat and slowly stabilizing it.

Gu Man opened her eyes at this moment, and seeing the scene in front of her, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Zhen Shaoxiang also breathed a sigh of relief, and the two of them smiled at each other.

This unexpected incident became an amusing little episode between them.

As they rowed, the sky gradually darkened, and the river shimmered with tiny lights.

Zhen Shaoxiang docked the boat at the shore, and the two of them sat on the boat, enjoying the beautiful night view.

249: Dining at the hotel

"Shaoxiang, let's go back. I'm a little tired."

Gu Man said, holding Zhen Shaoxiang's hand.

"Okay."

Zhen Shaoxiang took Gu Man back to the hotel.

Seeing how tired Gu Man was, Zhen Shaoxiang told her to take a nap. Then he ordered takeout.

Moonlight streamed into the quiet hotel lobby, its soft glow filling the air.

In a certain room, Gu Man was lying quietly on the bed.

Her breathing was soft and even, like that of a sleeping butterfly.

The room was simply and elegantly furnished, with light-colored curtains swaying gently in the breeze, reflecting Gu Man's peaceful sleeping face.

Her long hair cascaded down her pillow like a black waterfall.

A gentle breeze blows, and strands of hair flutter softly, as if whispering some secret.

Zhen Shaoxiang stood by the bed, silently watching Gu Man, his eyes filled with tenderness and appreciation.

He gently stroked her hair, his fingers running through the soft strands as if feeling her warmth.

Outside the window, the brightly lit city scene resembled a beautiful painting.

The neon lights in the distance shimmered with colorful light, reflecting off the hotel lights.

In the night sky, the stars twinkled like diamonds adorning a black velvet cloth.

Amidst the city's skyscrapers, bustling streets crisscross, teeming with traffic.

Pedestrians on the street are hurrying along, some are busy making a living, and some are enjoying the city's prosperity.

The street is lined with shops, restaurants, cafes, and more, offering a wide range of choices for people.

The ancient and modern buildings complement each other, creating a vibrant urban landscape.

Zhen Shaoxiang's gaze never left Gu Man; his eyes were filled with deep love and pity.

He gently stroked her face, feeling the smoothness and warmth of her skin under his fingertips.

His heart was filled with happiness and contentment.

They stayed quietly for a while until the outside world gradually quieted down.

When the takeout arrived, Zhen Shaoxiang woke Gu Man up.

"Get up and eat!"

Zhen Shaoxiang and Gu Man sat down on the sofa and placed the takeout he had ordered on the table.

Zhen Shaoxiang opened the takeout box with great interest, and the aroma immediately filled the air.

He handed one to Gu Man, and then picked up one for himself to taste.

Gu Man opened her takeout order, looked at the delicious-looking food, and smiled with satisfaction.

"Shaoxiang, you're so thoughtful."

Requesting flowers?

Zhen Shaoxiang and Gu Man sat in the hotel restaurant, enjoying the takeout Zhen Shaoxiang had ordered while chatting.

They both tasted a bite of the braised pork that Zhen Shaoxiang had ordered.

Gu Man couldn't help but exclaim, "This braised pork is so delicious! It's tender and juicy, and not greasy at all."

Zhen Shaoxiang also said, "The method of making this braised pork is really not simple."

... ... ...

"First, marinate the pork belly in cooking wine for a while, then put it in a pot to stew, and add various spices and seasonings."

Zhen Shaoxiang said, "Their food is quite delicious. Let's try some other dishes."

They then sampled other dishes, such as steamed sea bass and scallion oil noodles.

"Try this steamed sea bass, it's good for your brain." Zhen Shaoxiang put a piece of fish on Gu Man's plate.

Gu Man slapped Zhen Shaoxiang, "What do you mean? You should eat more to nourish your brain."

"The way to cook this sea bass is not simple."

As Zhen Shaoxiang served Gu Man food, he explained how to cook the sea bass.

"After cleaning the sea bass, pat it dry. Rub it with salt, pepper, and rice wine, then marinate for half an hour."

"Soak the shiitake mushrooms, slice the ham, slice the ginger, and cut the scallions into sections."

"Then stuff the scallion segments into the fish's belly, arrange the ginger slices, and surround it with ham and shiitake mushroom pieces."

"Bring the steamer to a boil over high heat, place the plate inside, steam for 10 minutes, turn off the heat, let it sit for another 8 minutes, then remove the plate from the steamer."

Remove the ginger slices, drizzle with steamed fish soy sauce, heat a little cooking oil in a separate pan, pour it over the fish, and sprinkle with shredded green onions.

Gu Man listened to Zhen Shaoxiang's detailed explanation.

"You seem to know a lot about cooking. Cook me a meal sometime and let me try your skills."

　"633." "Sure, I'll show you when I have the chance." Zhen Shaoxiang nodded and agreed with a smile.

Zhen Shaoxiang then served Gu Man other dishes.

They raved about every dish.

In the ensuing conversation, they talked about many things, including work, family, and friends.

Zhen Shaoxiang ate while chatting with Gu Man.
