After visiting the bookstore, the two took a bus directly to the main entrance of Xiandao Park.
Just as I was about to go in, I was stopped by a girl wearing a red vest.
"Excuse me, I'm Xiaomei, a volunteer for HIV/AIDS prevention awareness campaigns."
Luo Shimiao turned his head and saw an event tent set up about four meters away, with a large banner that read "Life First, End AIDS".
Xiaomei said, "Could I take a few minutes of your time to explain HIV/AIDS prevention knowledge to you?"
Luo Shimiao took off her mask and said, "Okay, you can talk, we're listening."
A look of amazement flashed across Xiaomei's eyes, and she blurted out, "You're so beautiful."
Luo Shimiao's eyes crinkled as she smiled and said, "Thank you."
Gu Nian also took off his mask.
Xiaomei: "Your boyfriend is also very, very handsome!"
A cool, clear male voice rang out: "Thank you."
Getting back to the main topic, Xiaomei carefully showed the two people the knowledge about HIV prevention.
Luo Shimiao nodded from time to time, unusually serious.
After Xiaomei finished speaking, she said, "Thank you very much. This is a small gift for you."
He took three family planning supplies out of his pocket and handed them to Gu Nian.
Gu Nian raised an eyebrow, glanced at Luo Shimiao, took the item, and put it in his pocket.
"Ahem." Luo Shimiao coughed awkwardly.
Looking at the camera, an idea came to mind. He said to Xiaomei, "We're on a TV show, and it's being broadcast live right now. If you don't mind showing your faces, you can take this opportunity to educate the national audience about HIV/AIDS prevention."
Xiaomei exclaimed with delight, "I don't mind at all, I couldn't be happier!"
"So you were recording a TV show. I thought you were just documenting your lives."
The three of them arrived at the event tent and stood in the center of the banner.
Xiaomei handed the AIDS prevention pamphlet to Luo Shimiao: "You are a public figure, so it will be more effective and appealing for you to explain it."
Luo Shimiao handed the promotional brochure to Gu Nian: "You come; your influence is greater."
Gu Nian glanced at it, then put down the brochure and perfectly recounted the HIV prevention knowledge that Xiao Mei had told them to the camera.
Luo Shimiao stood beside Gu Nian, her slender fingers flying across the page as she translated the content in sign language.

—【Holy crap! This really broadens my perspective!】
"—Bring me my family's heirloom lock—it can't be burned, cut, or broken; it's harder than diamond! I want to lock them up!"
—[Gu Nian's amazing memory, and Luo Shimiao's fluent and skillful sign language, even though I can't understand them, they look incredibly impressive.]
—[Professionals will tell you that her skill level is at least advanced.]
—How many levels are there in sign language?
—【Three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced.】
—【Awesome, I'm bowing down in admiration.】
The volunteers behind her were shocked and asked Xiaomei where she found such a talented person.
Xiaomei said blankly, "They flagged me down on the roadside."
After explaining, Luo Shimiao said, "We still have a task to complete, so we'll go inside first."
"Okay, thank you so much."
"You're welcome."

—[It feels like Luo Shimiao has been possessed; I've never seen her speak so politely before, and I'm suddenly a little unaccustomed to it.]
—【Please, she's just being cheeky and swears a lot, but she's not rude.】
—[She's usually quiet, like a goddess just standing there, but the moment she opens her mouth, she completely ruins the atmosphere. What a waste of a perfectly good girl's mouth.]
The Matchmaker Tree was on the mountaintop. The two bought a pair of love locks and then started climbing the mountain.
A giant tree, so large it would take several people to encircle it, stands at the very center of the mountaintop, surrounded by a protective fence.
Iron chains hung on the railings, and the chains were covered with love locks.
Luo Shimiao squatted down to find a seat: "Excuse me, everyone, please make room."
Holding a rusty love lock, Luo Shimiao moved to the side with a soft click. Her expression fell, and she looked helplessly at Gu Nian.
Gu Nian asked, "What's wrong?"
Luo Shimiao slowly opened his palm, and the lock on his palm was unlocked.
He put his hands together and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I wish you a long and happy marriage. No, this lock is so rusty. What if you're 99 years old this year and have to separate next year? I take back what I just said and let's start over."
May you live a long and happy life together, with hearts forever intertwined, like a pair of phoenixes singing in harmony, and never be separated even when you're bald!
Gu Nian: "........."
The love locks are one large and one small, the large one representing the man and the small one representing the woman. Luo Shimiao fastened the small one inside the large one and hung it on the chain with Gu Nian.
A love lock, connecting hearts, locking in love.
Luo Shimiao felt guilty looking at the lock she had opened, but after searching around, she couldn't find any rope or anything like that.
Finally, her gaze fell on Gu Nian, scanning him from head to toe. When she saw his sneakers, her eyes lit up. She squatted down, tilted her head back, and looked at him with bright, sparkling eyes.
"Gu Nian, how about I share half of your shoelaces?"
Today, Luo Shimiao is wearing flat shoes without shoelaces.
Gu Nian looked down at her and said, "Not good at all!"
"Gu Nian~" Luo Shimiao rushed over and hugged his leg.
"....................."
A few minutes later.
"Done!" Luo Shimiao clapped his hands and stood up.
"They endure wind, sun, and rain, yet they persevere year after year."
The rusty lock was wrapped with a clean white shoelace.
Poor Gu Nian, his shoelaces were cut in half, and his shoes wouldn't stay on his feet.
On the way down the mountain, Luo Shimiao saw a red plastic rope on the stairs, picked it up and helped Gu Nian continue up.
