Seeing Zhen Qiao's momentary daze, Qian Gui immediately rode his bicycle around and quickly left, as if some unclean thing was chasing him.
Zhen Qiao never expected that after waiting here all day, this would be the result. Something's not right!
When Qian Gui was almost home, he saw that Zhen Qiao hadn't followed. He breathed a sigh of relief, stopped the car, patted his chest, and muttered, "Oh my god, that scared me to death! That red dress scared me to death! Why did she have to do that instead of being a normal person? It's terrifying! Luckily, I'm in good health."
It's best to stay home these next couple of days and not go out, to avoid getting caught!
Qian Gui is a man who listens to himself. Before the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, he always stayed at home with his parents or went to twenty other places to visit with Qian Rao and the others.

Finally, having no other choice, the two asked someone to find a matchmaker to marry Zhen Qiao off, and they even received a dowry of 400 yuan. From then on, Zhen Qiao never appeared in the Zhen family again.
