Yan Xiluo didn't say anything, but secretly she was delighted. She hadn't expected him to be so domineering...
But she likes it...
No! How could she be swooning over a guy too! Wake up, wake up, don't get love-struck! This relationship has only just begun, she can't fall for him so quickly! She needs to think this through carefully!
Happy DIY Handmade Shop
"Welcome, sir and madam. Would you like to have pottery made or perhaps a pair of couple rings?"
The store manager spotted Lan Jingyan and Yan Xiluo wearing matching outfits at a glance.
The reason she named her shop "Happiness Shop" is that she hopes all couples who come here can be happy forever.
Most of the people who come to her shop are couples, and a small number are not.
"Baby, which one do you want to do today?"
Actually, he prefers to make couple rings. After all, we already have matching outfits and hats, all we're missing is a pair of couple rings, and it would be even more meaningful if the two of us made them together!
"Couple rings, perhaps?"
If she had to choose one, she would definitely choose couple rings. They can work together to give the rings their shape and design, and they can even have them engraved.
Although I own a jewelry store, it feels different from doing DIY crafts myself.
"Those who truly understand me are Luoluo."
Lan Jingyan received a satisfactory answer; she hadn't expected them to be so in sync.
"Alright, please follow me over there."
The shop manager led the two to the section that only made sterling silver rings.
On the table were pure silver materials and various crafting tools.
"This is it, sir and madam. Please have a seat. I will assist you."
The store is crowded today; all the staff are occupied with customers, leaving only the store manager.
Okay, thank you!
Yan Xiluo nodded politely.
Following the store manager's instructions, they melted the silver, poured it into a mold, quickly dropped it into water to cool it down, and then took it out.
The two worked together, hammering away at the rings they were making, with the shop manager providing careful guidance to help them finish quickly.
After repeated burning and hammering, the ring began to take shape.
The two measured each other's finger circumference, cut off the excess silver, and then melted it with fire to fuse the joint together.
Then came the process of creating the design on the ring, which involved another round of hammering and banging before the design was finally on the ring. Then, their initials in pinyin and the date together were engraved on it.
Finally, after polishing, the ring is finished.
The process of making the ring was very complicated, but the two were very happy and it took them more than an hour to complete.
"Thank you, shop manager. The ring looks beautiful. Without your help, it would have taken much longer."
Yan Xiluo looked at the ring she had given to Lan Jingyan. It was exquisite. She hadn't used the designs from the shop; instead, she had designed some herself.
The same design Lan Jingyan made for Yan Xiluo didn't use any of the shop's patterns; it was all his own meticulous design.
"Hehe, you guys are really amazing. You've made the most beautiful pair of rings since I opened the shop, even though they've lasted a while. But that's because you've done such exquisite work. I wonder if I could borrow the rings to take a picture and put them on the bulletin board?"
This was the first time the store manager had ever met someone who could design rings so well; the designs were also excellent.
She wanted to keep the photos as client photos.
"Ayan, are you willing?"
This is a ring for the two of them, a matter between the two of them, and she definitely needs to see if Lan Jingyan is willing.
"I have no problem with you if you're willing."
Lan Jingyan smiled warmly. He really liked the ring Yan Xiluo had prepared for him, and he wanted to put it on his finger right away!
But! He wanted his girl to put it on his hand herself.
"Okay, then you can take the picture. Thank you again for your help earlier."
Yan Xiluo handed over the ring.
"Can we wear it on your hands for the photo? It would give it more character, since you are the owners of the ring."
The couple photos in their happy little shop are all taken by customers wearing the rings they made themselves.
"Hmm... okay."
Yan Xiluo glanced at Lan Jingyan, and after confirming that he had no objections, she agreed.
Here you go!
Yan Xiluo smiled and handed the ring to Lan Jingyan, gesturing for him to put it on.
"Can't you put it on for me, baby? These are couple rings..."
Lan Jingyan acted like a rogue, demanding that his beloved woman put it on for him, and that he would never take it off before their engagement or wedding!
"Alright then, put your hand out."
Yan Xiluo understood his thoughts, so she didn't refuse him. Instead, she happily took his hand and put the ring on his ring finger. The size was just right, not too big or too small.
Lan Jingyan also showed a satisfied smile at this moment.
"Yes~"
Yan Xiluo naturally wanted him to put it on for her, so she stretched out her hand in front of him.
Lan Jingyan also put the ring on her ring finger.
Yan Xiluo touched the ring, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
"Manager, where should we film?"
Yan Xiluo was still looking at the ring on her hand.
"Just come with me to the front desk, the camera is there."
The store manager watched the two of them with a look of utter amazement, feeling like she had just been fed a lot of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection). Seeing how loving they were, she felt that opening her store was the right decision!
Seeing happy young couples every day is so good for her breast health!
After the photos were taken, because they were selected as the cover photo for this month, the store manager did not charge them and instead gave them the rings directly.
On the bus
"Would it be too abrupt for me to suddenly go to my grandparents' house tonight? Although I brought a gift."
Yan Xiluo had just told him to come to the Li family's house for dinner.
He was somewhat uneasy and hesitant. Although he had visited the Li family quite often because of Li Shaochuan, his status had changed somewhat now. He couldn't just go to Li Shaochuan's door like before, could he?
“It wasn’t abrupt! After my grandparents woke up from their afternoon nap, they didn’t see me and messaged me looking for me. I told them that since they were here, I would come out with them and hang out. They told me that I absolutely had to invite them to our house for dinner.”
She wasn't lying; she received a message from her grandparents looking for her while Lan Jingyan was helping her win prizes at the claw machine.
However, she was too busy playing the claw machine to talk to him much.
"Okay! I'll go back to the hotel first, change my clothes, and pick up the gift before we go."
Although he really likes this matching outfit, isn't it a bit too casual to go see his elders?
He still wanted to retain as many good impressions as possible.
"How about we leave the clothes as they are? Your grandparents have probably never seen you look so sunny and adorable before. I think they'll love it!"
She understood that he wanted to change his clothes, and she actually felt that it made them seem more loving and showed how good their relationship was.
"Should I get my hair done?"
Even if you don't change your clothes, you should at least style your hair, right?
