The next morning, a ray of sunlight playfully landed on Ying Qian's face.
She rubbed her eyes, yawned, and rolled out of bed.
I opened my phone and saw several unread messages from Chen Wenzhi from last night.
Another one has been added, just now.
—Yesterday evening
Gentle conspiracy: I have a solution to that problem.

Gentle conspiracy: Good morning, do you need me to come find you?
She paused her finger on the screen for a few seconds, then replied, "No need~ ≧?≦"
Looking at the time, it's almost eight o'clock.
Meng Beiyan knew she had plans for the day, so he prepared breakfast.
He fried two eggs and made a bowl of fried rice.
Surprisingly, it tastes pretty good.
With his rugged looks and muscular physique, Meng Beiyan doesn't look like a typical family man.
Ying Qian joked, "Brother, you have the potential to be a stay-at-home husband. Your future wife will definitely be very happy."
"I don't even have a girlfriend," Meng Beiyan said helplessly. "And I don't want one for the time being."
"You're already twenty-five, that's considered late marriage by any measure," she muttered, even though it didn't concern her. "Hasn't Aunt Tang introduced you to anyone?"
Meng Beiyan chuckled, "I have a blind date this afternoon."
"Huh?" Ying Qian was speechless.
She stared wide-eyed, nearly dropping the spoon in her hand.
Meng Beiyan gently tugged at Ying Qian's soft cheek. "Do you need me to take you?"
It took Ying Qian a while to recover before she nodded.
"Are you coming with me this afternoon?" he asked.
He didn't say it, but he really longed for Ying Qian's company.
Ying Qian scoffed a few times and said, "It's such a nuisance to have me with you."
She smiled, her eyes narrowing into slits, and said with great confidence, "However, as your younger sister, I sincerely congratulate you on finding me a sister-in-law."
His expression was unpredictable; he showed no reaction, and no joy or sorrow was evident.

Just as they had agreed yesterday, Ying Qian went to find Chen Wenzhi.
When he arrived at the entrance of the residential area, Chen Wenzhi waited for someone next to the security room because of the access control system.
He was tall and dressed very simply, in a plain white cotton sweatshirt without any patterns, loose gray pants, and a pair of sneakers.
His face is very eye-catching; it's clean and his skin looks like it's been photoshopped. Even up close, it has a matte finish. Although he has some pimples in the middle of his face, they don't detract from his appearance; instead, they make him look more natural.
Otherwise, if his photos were posted online, they would definitely be accused of being heavily filtered.
Ying Qian saw him from inside the car! As soon as the car came to a stop, she jumped out and ran towards him.
Chen Wenzhi's gaze lingered on the handsome man who quickly caught up for a few seconds, and he immediately recognized him as the person who had come to pick up Qian from school that day.
After all, they are her family.
He greeted them politely.
Meng Beiyan usually has a stern and serious expression in front of outsiders.
He completely ignored Chen Wenzhi and did not respond to her thanks. He simply told Ying Qian, "I'll pick you up after I finish what I'm doing here."
After saying that, he quickly disappeared from their sight.
Ying Qian felt as if the air had been filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Neither of them looked very happy.
Is he your brother?
"Hmm, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with my brother?"
“No, I just feel that you two don’t look alike,” Chen Wenzhi replied.
Ying Qian spoke frankly: "It would be strange if we were not related or acquainted."
Chen Wenzhi looked like he understood.
She was shivering with cold, wearing only a white dress and thin stockings underneath. The outside temperature was only a few degrees Celsius, and she kept rubbing her hands together to ward off the cold.
“Your brother is so irresponsible,” Chen Wenzhi said, seeing her hands that were purple from the cold. “It’s so cold and he didn’t even remind you to wear more clothes.”
“I don’t expect him to remind me,” Ying Qian said helplessly.
Chen Wenzhi looked around, found a convenience store, bought a few hand warmers, and roughly stuffed them into Ying Qian's hands.
Ying Qian repeatedly said "thank you".
"You're so sweet! Chen Wenzhi, you're amazing, such a sweetheart!" she shouted at the convenience store entrance.
The people in the convenience store were all looking at her strangely.
Chen Wenzhi awkwardly considered buying a rocket ticket to escape this planet.
However, he still responded earnestly to Ying Qian's praise, saying, "Thank you."
He scanned her outfit from top to bottom.
Ying Qian felt a chill run down her spine and covered his eyes with her hand. "What are you looking at? It's not like you haven't seen a beautiful woman like me before."
Chen Wenzhi smiled and came to a conclusion: "You're wearing too light a pale color, it doesn't look good, and besides..."
The thought of "looks like someone who's easy to bully" that was stuck in his throat was forced to be swallowed back down.
"What?!" Ying Qian said logically, "Today is Chen Yun's show, so of course I'm just playing the supporting role to highlight her as the main attraction!"
Chen Wenzhi's breathing was steady as he brushed his index finger against the tip of his nose. "I mean, normally, girls probably all want to be prettier, right?"
No, not at all.
She said, "Actually, a girl's beauty depends on her self-confidence. Confident girls are all beautiful! Like me!"
Watching her proudly pat her chest.
Chen Wenzhi's smile deepened.
Both Amber Garden and Longhu European Garden are located within the school district of No. 3 Middle School. The two communities are separated by only one road and are situated in the city center of S City, in the city's most prosperous commercial district. To the west, there is a large central square.
Buses and subways are available.
The crowds here are endless.
Chen Wenzhi said, "If I'm not mistaken, we might have lunch at Longhu Tianjie."
"Longhu Paradise Walk?" Ying Qian had never heard of it, after all, she was unfamiliar with the place.
Chen Wenzhi explained, "S City has a relatively large square, and locals often go there, but for outsiders... it doesn't have any special features."
"Oh." Ying Qian nodded. "But I feel like there will be a lot of fun activities."
"I'm not sure."
“But…” he paused, “there’s a library over there, the environment is very nice.”
Ying Qian: "...So you've only ever been to the library?"
No, that's not it.
