October 24th, Qiantang River, cloudy
Today, Chen Bing and I went to a museum, a temple, and an ancient city. It was very interesting, but we were so tired from playing that I had to write this diary entry the next morning.

No. 24
Today, Xiao Shang wore a very cute dress and carried a little sheep bag. She stayed out a bit late tonight and didn't really feel like writing in her diary.

October 25th, Qiantang River, sunny.
Today I tried the Qiantang Lake Vinegar Fish, but it wasn't very good. Chen Bing said that in the few seconds he chewed the fish, he could vividly imagine the fish's entire life: nibbling on water plants, rolling in the pond mud, playing with its droppings...
We also sketched and took photos of the ancient pagoda by the Qiantang Lake, which was quite interesting.

November 1st, Yugui, cloudy turning sunny.
I haven't written in my diary for the past few days, I feel so ashamed. I clearly promised Chen Bing that we would exchange diaries after the trip, I can't keep going like this. Hmm, I've decided, starting today I'm going to fully enjoy the trip, not only by keeping a daily diary, but also by going out and having fun with Chen Bing.
Hmm, let's start tomorrow. It's a bit late today, and my brother just urged me to go and do something naughty. Ugh... I feel so ashamed. My brother diligently wrote in his diary every day, waiting to switch with me after the trip. Okay, tomorrow I'm determined to have my brother take me to see the mountains and rivers of Yugui. That's decided.

November 2nd, Yugui, sunny
I was so tired yesterday that I accidentally slept until noon. But I'm grateful that I didn't let my brother persuade me to go out with me, and instead insisted on asking him to come with me.
My brother is so mean, both good and bad. He agreed to go out with me, but he insisted on making me agree to other things. Ugh... how could he be so mean? I hate him.
We drove for half an hour to Lijiang, rented a really cool bamboo raft, and played on the river for a long time. Besides the Li River, we also went to Xiangshan Park.
There are many other places I'd like to visit, but it's already very late, so I have to go home and explore other places tomorrow.
My brother had prepared a set of clothes sometime during the night; the style was a bit strange. He told me to change into them right then and there so I could wear them that evening.
The color of the clothes is white.
(This is a bit risqué. I hadn't finished writing my diary yesterday when my brother called me away, so this is something I'm writing this part on the second night. Hmm, what was I originally going to write yesterday?)

November 3rd, Yugui, light rain.
Because of the rain, it was inconvenient to go out, so I stayed in my room all day. Fortunately, although I stayed in my room, I wasn't idle. I took out the book I brought and read for a while, but as soon as I started reading, my brother said something like, "This feels really good," and then he came over and started touching me, and then that was it.

November 3rd
First of all, I want to clarify that a cultured young woman with a strong intellectual background is also quite nice.
Cough cough, counting the days, it's been almost ten days since I last wrote in my exchange diary. To be honest, I'm ashamed to say that the honeymoon trip was so much fun that it turned an ambitious young man into this mess.
After sighing, I sighed again, thinking that I couldn't go on like this, and I had to at least write in my diary every day.
Given my enthusiasm, which may fade at any time, I need to quickly catch up on my diary entries from the past few days.
Small business is good, but one should not overindulge.
Very good, Xiao Shang. The fact that you're seeing this means I've temporarily awakened. I'm sure you can see from my behavior since November 3rd that I'm different from before. I imagine we've traveled to many places since then, like that rice terrace you told me about these past few days—you should look forward to it! (crossed out)
The following is a supplementary diary entry:
October 25th, white nightgown
On October 26th, wearing a short-hemmed cheongsam and a turtleneck sweater.
October 27th, I forgot.
On October 28th, her boyfriend was wearing a shirt, a dress, and a business suit.
October 29th…

November 4th, Yugui, cloudy
I thought it might rain today, so I didn't really want to go out, but my brother was quite proactive today, and I didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm, so we went out anyway.
I feel like I've seen most of the must-see attractions in Yugui City, so it wasn't very interesting. The Sheji Rice Terraces, which looked incredibly beautiful in videos, were actually a bit underwhelming in reality.
I played cards in my room that night, and this time I was incredibly lucky. I won seven hands in a row, and even lost my brother's socks to me! Yay, I've redeemed myself!

Playing poker.

November 5th, Yugui, sunny.
This afternoon I plan to go to Longyou Province. I heard that you can see the Milky Way there when the weather is good. I'm really looking forward to it.
I was busy packing and catching my flight in the morning. By the time I arrived in Longyou, it was already very late. I played around for a little while and then went to sleep.

November 5th
Today I flew to Jincheng City. When we arrived, Xiaoshang was a little tired, so I didn't want her to get too tired. I let her play for a while and then put her to sleep.

November 6th, Jincheng, sunny
It's so cold in Jincheng, I don't want to go out.

My brother said today that we should go up the mountain to see the stars tomorrow. But it's so cold, I don't really want to go out.

November 8th
Chen Bing, Chen Bing, how could you be so depraved? What's so fun about poker? What's so fun about small businesses? Did you come here on your honeymoon just to find another place to play with small businesses?
Zeng Ziyun said, "I examine myself three times a day." Chen Bing! It's about time you cheered up too! Tomorrow, let's take Xiao Shang up the mountain to see the Milky Way!

November 9
We saw the Milky Way; it was more beautiful than I imagined. We stayed at a nearby hotel that night, and it was so expensive!

Galaxy, Hanfu (traditional Han clothing).

Chen Bing had originally anticipated that by the end of the three-month trip, his love exchange diary would be quite thick.
When the three months finally ended and he and Xiao Shang returned to their peaceful daily lives, he unfortunately discovered that he had only written about thirty pages. Moreover, the content he wrote was a jumbled mess, even containing profanity.
Looking at the familiar words in the diary, Chen Bing couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Chen Bing, Chen Bing! Look at what you've done in the past three months!
Although she was internally berating herself, Chen Bing also understood that life always has to move forward, and dwelling on the unbearable past would only plunge one into pain.
Since we can't learn anything from the past, why make things difficult for ourselves?
Thinking this, Chen Bing casually tossed his love exchange diary deep into the drawer.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper didn't ask me to come and exchange it...
