Song Yuzhou's eyes were filled with smiles, and when he was leaning over to return the greeting, a light cough was heard.
Following this sound, Song Yuzhou and Jiang Zhining both turned their heads to look at Yue Zhen who was coughing.
"Everyone is watching." Yue Zhen said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhining noticed that everyone's attention was not on the performance, but on them.
Seeing this, her cheeks flushed red, she covered her face in embarrassment and leaned on his shoulder.
Seeing this, Song Yuzhou hugged his wife and looked at everyone: "My wife is shy, please don't look at her."
Everyone laughed heartily and said, "Young people are full of vigor and energy, and they're newly married. We should understand."
"That's right. Our Yuzhou was never late before." Zhao Liang teased, "After getting married, he seemed to be late a few times."
"With a beautiful woman in your arms, if you don't do something, you're not a real man. Our Captain Song still has very good physical strength."
Hearing everyone's teasing, Jiang Zhining felt embarrassed and wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
I shouldn’t have kissed him!
Everyone joked around for a while before continuing to watch the show.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the performance finally ended and everyone left.
Jiang Zhining walked out of the troop with Song Yuzhou's arm around her, her steps brisk: "This troupe's performance is different, full of spirit and power."
"Yes, arts soldiers are also soldiers." Song Yuzhou responded truthfully.
"Excellent! Our country's soldiers are truly amazing." Jiang Zhining said proudly, "Even the dance styles could be more varied."
Song Yuzhou looked at her: "Can you dance?"
Jiang Zhining shook her head: "I don't know how to do that. Although we had street dance and jazz dance back then, I didn't have the money to learn them. The only thing I know is ballroom dancing."
"Ballroom dancing?"
"Yes, there was a freshman welcome event at school and we needed to dance, so I learned from the video for a month."
At that time, because the senior whom she had a crush on was also there, she studied very hard.
She thought that once she learned it, she would be able to ask him to dance.
Jiang Zhining recalled the past, regret flashing in her eyes: "Unfortunately, I never found a partner for that ballroom dance."
Ultimately, she didn't take that step.
Because of his ordinary appearance and introverted personality, no one noticed him at the freshman event.
Throughout the entire event, she was like an outsider, watching others rejoice.
Seeing the disappointment in her eyes, Song Yuzhou stopped.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhining looked at him in confusion.
Under the streetlight, Song Yuzhou stretched out his hand and placed it in front of her: "Ms. Jiang Zhining, can I ask you to dance with me?"
Jiang Zhining covered her mouth in astonishment, her heart skipping a beat: "You can?"
"I was asked to learn it once before." Song Yuzhou said truthfully.
Jiang Zhining's heart was filled with ripples. The street light shone on his face, casting a shadow.
At that moment, the heartbeat in my chest was beating rapidly.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Zhining slowly stretched out her hand and placed it in his palm.
Song Yuzhou took her hand and walked to the bottom of the street light.
Then, his hand fell on her waist.
"Start?" Song Yuzhou asked for her opinion.
Jiang Zhining put her hand on his shoulder with a bright smile on her face: "Okay."
As the voice fell, Song Yuzhou took a step towards her, while Jiang Zhining took a step back.
Tap tap, tap tap, Song Yuzhou muttered to himself, recalling the relevant memory fragments in his mind.
Song Yuzhou was not very good at it, and it was Jiang Zhining's first time dancing with a man, so they occasionally stepped on each other's feet.
But her face was always filled with smile.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Zhining jumped up and down in joy: "So this is what ballroom dancing feels like. Yuzhou, thank you for making up for my regret."
Feeling her joy, Song Yuzhou pinched her cheek: "Although I am clumsy, I learn things quickly. As long as you need me, I can learn."
Jiang Zhining opened her arms and threw herself into his arms.
Without saying a word, she just hugged him tightly, tears in her eyes.
Song Yuzhou didn't say anything, just hugged her gently.
Until Jiang Zhining sneezed.
"I'll carry you back." Song Yuzhou said in a low voice.
"I can walk on my own."
"Hold me, it's warmer." Song Yuzhou said, and without waiting for her to refuse, he bent down and picked her up.
His arms were strong and powerful, and Jiang Zhining leaned in his arms.
Because she was cold, she curled up in his arms.
His shoulders were broad and his tall body blocked all the wind.
Jiang Zhining rubbed against his arms, but couldn't feel any coldness at all.
The figures of the two people gradually lengthened under the street lights.
The next day, Jiang Zhining came to the hot pot restaurant.
As soon as I walked into the hot pot restaurant, I saw Shen Liqing about to enter the store.
"Aunt, why are you here?" Jiang Zhining was surprised.
When Shen Liqing saw her, she smiled and said, "Zhi Ning, I brought my little sisters to eat."
As she spoke, Shen Liqing took Jiang Zhining's hand and enthusiastically introduced her to her friends: "This is our Zhining. She opened this hot pot restaurant. Everyone, please try it. If you like it, you can come often in the future."
Hearing her words, the well-dressed ladies smiled and said, "Liqing, I didn't know you had such a pretty and capable niece. I've heard of this Jiangzhou Fishing Fire hotpot restaurant before, but I didn't know it was opened by your niece."
Shen Liqing smiled and replied, "Our Zhi Ning is amazing. She is the best business person I've ever met among all the women."
Jiang Zhining smiled and said, "Auntie, I feel embarrassed because of your praise."
"I'm telling the truth." Shen Liqing said with a smile, "Don't you agree?"
"Yes, yes." Several people said in unison, "We'll choose this place for our gatherings from now on. If the food is good, come and sit here often."
Jiang Zhining said with a warm smile: "We are all my aunt's sisters. You can get discounts when you come to our store in the future."
"Okay." Everyone responded with a smile, and then Jiang Zhining asked Li Furong to take them to their seats.
"Aunt, thank you for bringing guests to me." Jiang Zhining said gratefully.
Shen Liqing took her hand and said affectionately: "Silly child, why are you being so polite to me? My mother has had a much better appetite recently after eating the snacks you taught her, and she has become plump. Our whole family is very grateful to you."
“This is what I should do.”
"You treat others sincerely, and you will receive sincerity in return." Shen Liqing laughed sweetly, "If you weren't already married, I would have wanted Xuesong to marry you. Alas, what a pity."
Jiang Zhining smiled awkwardly. After spending a month together, she could feel Shen Liqing's liking for her.
Shen Liqing looked down and accidentally saw the gold bracelet on her wrist.
Looking at the pattern, Shen Liqing felt a strong sense of familiarity.
Seeing what she was looking at, Jiang Zhining asked curiously, "What's wrong, aunt?"
"The pattern on this gold bracelet seems very familiar. Zhining, where did you get it?"
