Chapter 198: Listen to Your Wife in Everything
For dinner, Jin Changyu personally cooked beef noodles.
He placed the food on the table and watched the woman sitting beside him eating with a satisfied expression, feeling incredibly happy.
Eat slowly.
He reached out and tucked a few strands of her long hair behind her ear.
"I want to have this for breakfast tomorrow."
Sang Qian looked up at him, her speech a little slurred because she was eating.
With her chubby cheeks and bright, round eyes, she looked just like a greedy and adorable little hamster. Jin Changyu looked at her, his eyes filled with doting affection.
"Okay, I'll get up early tomorrow and make it for you."
Sang Qian said, "We need to eat lunch too."
She hadn't even finished dinner, and she was already planning tomorrow's three meals.
"good."
Sang Qian, "That night..."
"We can't eat at home tonight. We agreed to go out on a date," Jin Changyu quickly reminded her.
Seeing his nervous expression, as if he was afraid she would change her mind, Sang Qian swallowed the noodles. "I know, what I meant was that you've made me so many bowls of noodles, so as a way of repaying you, I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night."
"You're going to treat me to dinner?"
A look of flattered joy flashed across Jin Changyu's face. He paused for a moment, then quickly shook his head. "No, I have to pay for the date."
Upon hearing this, Sang Qian's eyes flickered, and she asked him probingly, "Why? Is it... because there's something special about tomorrow?"
"no."
Jin Changyu shook his head and said seriously, "No matter when, the man should always pay for the expenses of a date between couples. That's... the rule."
The book "How to Win a Girl's Heart" that Gao Ze found for him states—
The first rule of a date is that the man must pay for the meal.
This is a sign of respect for the girl.
Girls also like this feeling of being valued.
Tomorrow is their first official date, how can he let her treat him to dinner?
The relief and expectation that had risen in Sang Qian's eyes vanished at his answer.
Sure enough, he's still a blockhead.
She felt that Su Luoluo had praised her too early.
He's still a clueless straight man; how could he possibly be sensible or perceptive?
He had no idea what day it was tomorrow.
"I don't have that kind of rule."
Sang Qian said to him, "Every couple has a different way of getting along, so you can't generalize. Don't try to learn those weird rules. Let's just cultivate our own way of getting along, okay?"
"...Oh, okay."
Seeing him nod hesitantly, trying to understand and digest the information, but with a somewhat dazed look in his eyes, Sang Qian couldn't help but find it amusing, and asked him, "So, when we go out on dates in the future, will we still follow your set of rules?"
Jin Changyu quickly shook his head, "I won't talk about it."
"So, what should we do on our date?"
Jin Changyu thought for a moment, then said very seriously and sincerely, "I will listen to my wife."
Sang Qian was stunned for a moment, not expecting him to give such an answer.
Then I thought, this answer is... not bad.
"Hmm, not bad, your ideological awareness is quite high."
Jin Changyu's lips curled up slightly as he was praised.
Sang Qian then asked, "I'll arrange where we'll eat tomorrow, you don't mind, right?"
"No."
After a pause, Jin Changyu asked her, "So, which restaurant are we going to eat at tomorrow?"
You'll find out tomorrow.

The next afternoon.
Jin Changyu was a little anxious and wanted to leave early, but Sang Qian told him to take his medicine and take a nap first.
He dared not go against her wishes. Besides, even if he didn't want to sleep, she, as a pregnant woman, still needed to sleep and rest. So he took the medicine and went to bed with her for a nap.
Jin Changyu originally intended to just take a nap and then get up, but due to the effects of the medicine, when he opened his eyes, the person who had been sleeping in his arms was already sitting in front of the dressing table by the bedside putting on makeup.
Sang Qian carefully applied makeup to herself.
Even though I'm pregnant, I still want to look my best when I go out today.
Hearing a noise from the bed, she was drawing her eyebrows, staring at herself in the mirror. "You're awake?"
Seeing that she was already getting ready, Jin Changyu quickly got out of bed. "Hmm, why didn't you wake me up when you got up?"
After finishing her left eyebrow, Sang Qian started on her right eyebrow. "It's still early, no rush. I need time to do my makeup, you can take your time."
"good."
Jin Changyu verbally agreed, but dared not actually be negligent.
He was afraid of making her wait for him.
After getting up and washing up in the bathroom, I went to the dressing room to choose clothes.
He quickly dressed himself and returned to the bedside, only to find Sang Qian still sitting in front of the dressing table putting on makeup.
Jin Changyu, worried about running out of time: ? ? ?
No wonder she told herself to take it slow.
So it turns out they really weren't in a hurry.
Jin Changyu only then noticed that Sang Qian was wearing a misty pink knitted dress. From behind, her pregnant belly was not visible, and her waist was still slender and shapely.
"Are you all packed?"
He was engrossed in reading when Sang Qian's voice came from behind him.
"Okay, I've got it done."
Looking back in the mirror, Sang Qian saw the man wearing a white casual outfit with a black overcoat. He had a neat and refreshing demeanor, and with his handsome face, he had the kind of beauty that made a manga protagonist come to life.
"Wait a minute, I'll be done soon too."
"No rush, take your time."
As Jin Changyu finished speaking, the phone rang. He glanced at it and said to Sang Qian, "It's Gao Ze. He might have something to say to me about work. I'll go out and answer it."
While tilting her head to put on her earring, Sang Qian replied, "Go ahead."
After everyone left, she put on her earrings and went to the dressing room. Thinking about Jin Changyu's outfit just now, she finally chose a beige long coat.
After finishing his work conversation with Gao Ze in the corridor and hanging up the phone, Jin Changyu turned around and saw Sang Qian standing behind him.
Today, she wore her hair up, pearl earrings, and light makeup. She wore a pink dress with a white coat, looking gentle, elegant, and a little playful.
"Honey, you look beautiful today."
Jin Changyu's gaze was intense, his praise genuine.
She dressed up so beautifully for tonight's date, which proves that she values her date with herself.
Realizing this, Jin Changyu felt as if a honey pot had been overturned, his heart overflowing with sweetness.
His gaze was so intense that it made Sang Qian's face flush.
"Let's go, it's almost time."
"good."
Jin Changyu stepped forward and took her bag and phone, then held her hand with his other hand. "Let's go on a date."
*
There are many restaurants near the central square, and Jin Changyu didn't expect Sang Qian to take him to the Chinese restaurant where they first ate here.
Good evening, gentlemen. Do you have a reservation?
The receptionist politely approached to inquire.
"Yes," Sang Qian replied, giving her phone number and surname.
Jin Changyu was somewhat surprised that she had actually reserved a table here in advance.
"Please come in, both of you."
The waiter led them to a booth by the window in the lobby.
The location is good, but the privacy is slightly less than that of a private room.
After we sat down, a waiter immediately came over and brought us a glass of warm water and handed us our menus.
"What would you like to eat? There should be many set meals today."
Sang Qian handed the menu to Jin Changyu.
Jin Changyu took it but didn't open it. Instead, he asked her in confusion, "Aren't we going to sit in a private room?"
"The atmosphere in the lobby would be better."
After Sang Qian finished speaking, she glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong? You're not used to sitting in the living room?"
"No, no." Jin Changyu quickly shook his head and blurted out, "As long as I'm with you, I'm happy no matter what."
He simply assumed she would prefer a quieter atmosphere.
Before Jin Changyu could say anything, a waiter came over with some food, said "Excuse me, gentlemen," and placed two bowls of dessert sprinkled with rose petals in front of them.
?
Jin Changyu was puzzled. They hadn't even ordered yet, so why were the dishes being served?
Just as he was about to ask, the waiter smiled and said to them, "This is a 'Heart-to-Heart' dessert that our store gives to every couple. Happy Valentine's Day to you both."
The words "Happy Valentine's Day" suddenly exploded in Jin Changyu's head.
Is today...Valentine's Day?
