Mr. Shang, please be passionately in love after marriage.

Cen hope was quite frightened by her words.

"How is that possible?"

She has a high moral standard; even if she wants to date, she will get a divorce first.

Xu You stroked her chin and sighed, "But the way you were chatting just now, it was obvious you were in the honeymoon phase."

Only during the honeymoon phase can one smile so sweetly without realizing it.

Xu You clicked her tongue and said, "Dr. Cen, you're in trouble. You and your husband have fallen in love."

Cen hope couldn't help but smile at her exaggerated statement.

"It's not that exaggerated."

She and Shang Hanzhou were just having a normal chat; there was no question of them being in a passionate relationship.

Xu You: "If you don't believe me, fine. You and your husband are clearly dating."

She's becoming increasingly curious about who Cen hope's husband really is.

The fact that Cen hope, who is usually stern and unsmiling towards all the male doctors and nurses in the hospital, could smile so happily must mean he's a very skilled male vixen.

The wooden table in the village chief's house wasn't wide. Liang Xian sat opposite the two women, poured them a cup of tea, and handed it to them with his long arms outstretched.

"Have some tea."

Xu You then ended their conversation, smiling as she picked up the bowl, "Thank you."

Cen hope also picked up a glass and took a sip; it tasted slightly bitter and astringent.

Liang Xian had actually overheard their conversation. He had met Shang Hanzhou at the bar before, and he and Cen hope did indeed seem like a good match.

"Please don't complain, everyone. If it's not enough, I'll have my wife cook a few more dishes."

The village chief was an honest farmer. He was filled with gratitude that a doctor was willing to come to their village to provide free medical care, and he was afraid that he might not have treated the doctor well enough.

Cen hope quickly said, "That's enough, Village Chief, there's no need to stir-fry it anymore."

"Yes, it's especially delicious! I'm going to eat two more bowls of rice later."

Xu You was also smiling, holding her rice bowl.

The meal was more enjoyable than I had imagined, and the fatigue from sitting in the car all morning disappeared afterward.

The village chief had informed the villagers in advance that a doctor would be coming to provide free medical consultations in the afternoon.

Most of the residents in Hengsha Village are elderly people left behind in rural areas. The work we do is not very difficult; it mainly involves basic tasks such as taking blood pressure, blood sugar, and ultrasounds, and then providing disease diagnosis and medication guidance.

Although there aren't many people in the village, one day is clearly not enough.

Moreover, there will be a health lecture and chronic disease management session tomorrow morning, so the three of them will definitely be staying in Hengsha Village tonight.

The village chief's house had a spare room, which Cen hope and Xu You shared, while Liang Xian had a separate room.

In rural areas, it generally gets dark early.

It's now the beginning of autumn, and the temperature drops significantly at night.

After finishing her meal, Cen hope moved a chair to the village chief's courtyard and sat down. The night was quite nice, with stars twinkling in the sky, and the coat she brought was just right.

Having grown accustomed to the hustle and bustle of big cities, seeing such a night scene suddenly made me feel relaxed.

Cen hope wanted to take some photos of the starry sky with her phone, but the starry sky in the photos was never as clear and stunning as what she saw with her naked eye; it was just a hazy gray expanse.

She sighed softly and put down her phone.

A buzzing sound came from the WeChat video call at that moment.

My phone vibrated in my palm, and I almost dropped it. It was Shang Hanzhou calling.

It was still early, so he didn't go back to Jingtang Garden and stayed in his office.

Cen hope was a little surprised that he would video call her. She hadn't video chatted with him often and wasn't used to pointing the camera at herself yet, so she silently pointed the camera at the sky above her head.

"What's wrong?"

She heard herself ask.

The camera was shaking, and Shang Hanzhou stood up with his phone in hand. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, where the night view of Beijing was filled with cars. He always faced the camera with composure and never cared about the angle.

Cen hope noticed his well-defined jawline.

"It's going to rain tomorrow, you have an umbrella in your bag."

He spoke in a low voice, as if he were talking about something extremely ordinary.

Cen hope was stunned. Rain? She hadn't even checked the weather forecast here.

The sun is shining brightly today; I really can't imagine it raining tomorrow.

"I didn't bring an umbrella."

She left in a bit of a hurry, only having Aunt Fang pack some toiletries for her before leaving.

Shang Hanzhou chuckled: "I know, I took it for you."

Cen hope's pupils contracted slightly.

Suddenly she remembered that it was morning when she was packing her things, and he was home too. However, he didn't seem to be paying any attention to her at the time, but he secretly put an umbrella in her bag.

"Do you even know what you call this kind of behavior?"

As the two became a little more familiar with each other, Cen hope couldn't resist the urge to tease him.

In the video, Shang Hanzhou frowned slightly, but followed her words and asked, "What?"

"That's called being a repressed pervert."

This term was introduced to her by Lin Xingyou, who used to draw comics; she loved drawing introverted, brooding men.

Shang Hanzhou's brows furrowed even deeper, his expression mirroring when he heard the words "emotional abuse" a while back. He asked, "What do you mean?"

Cen hope smiled with her eyes downcast.

I'm not telling you. Look it up yourself if you want to know.

A low laugh came through the receiver, even through the screen. Shang Hanzhou indulged her teasing, "Fine, you decide."

The sound of wind rising.

Behind him, Liang Xian walked over, holding a cup of hot water. "Dr. Cen, have some water."

After the last time at the bar, Liang Xian started calling her "Dr. Cen" more often.

Cen hope turned her head and took it from his hand, saying, "Thank you."

Liang Xian moved a chair and sat down next to her. Half of his body was in Cen hope's lens, and Shang Hanzhou's sharp eyes immediately narrowed.

"A man?"

He remembered that the person who went to the medical clinic with her wasn't a girl.

Before Cen hope could explain, Xu You's carefree voice came from inside: "I'm so bored, and there's hardly any internet. How about we play some games together?"

"I'm fine with either."

Liang Xianxian agreed.

Cen hope naturally agreed, and whispered into the receiver, "I have to hang up now, let's talk tomorrow."

With a beep, the video call ended, leaving Shang Hanzhou isolated on the other side.

"Dr. Cen, I told you you and your husband are in the honeymoon phase. You've only been out for less than a day, and you've already made countless messages and video calls."

Upon seeing her hang up the video call, Xu You pointed at two things on her body in an ambiguous manner.

Cen hope didn't know how to explain.

Is her relationship with Shang Hanzhou considered a passionate romance?

"Come on, let's play a game first."

Xu You borrowed a deck of cards from the village chief. Cen hope only knew how to play the simplest kind, but she was smart and picked up the others quickly.

The three of them played for more than an hour.

Cen hope's phone vibrated several times during the trip, but she didn't check it. It wasn't until 10:30 that Xu You got sleepy and didn't want to play anymore, and the three of them parted ways.

She picked up the phone, and the message on the screen surprised her.

Why did Shang Hanzhou send her so many messages?!

Shang Hanzhou: [When are you coming back?]

Shang Hanzhou: [Still playing?]

Shang Hanzhou: [Are you asleep?]

Shang Hanzhou: [?]

The last message was posted by him ten minutes ago.

Shang Hanzhou: [Manman, you're giving me the silent treatment again.]
