"Wow, the dumplings here are not bad." Fengguang gave a thumbs up and looked at him with approval.

"How did you find such a great place?"

"It's a restaurant I frequented when I was younger." Bai Zhe took out a napkin and wiped the soup leftover at the sides of her mouth. His caring gesture caused her eyes to sparkle with happiness.

The dumpling restaurant was a very normal little store and was not like the usual expensive, fancy restaurants she often went to. Bai Zhe had intended to enjoy her discomfort but instead, she was adjusting well and ordered a lot once she sat down.

"Why do you keep watching me eat? Why aren't you eating?" Fengguang asked.

"I'm not hungry."

"Oh alright... Hey, what are those photos?" As she looked around, a wall covered in photographs caught her eye. The pictures were filled with smiling men and women.

The owner was an honest-looking middle-aged man. He was standing at the counter with a smile and replied, "Those photos were taken with customers who came to eat dumplings. The energy those youths have given us, makes our restaurant's atmosphere youthful and vibrant."

Fengguang's eyes glittered.

Bai Zhe had a bad feeling.

As he expected, she excitedly shouted, "Boss, can you help my boyfriend and I take a photo and leave it here as a memory?"

Bai Zhe had considered leaving by himself but the moment he heard her say 'boyfriend', he forgot to argue back.

"Of course!" The owner then took out a Polaroid camera.

Fengguang put down her spoon and pulled Bai Zhe's arm. "Let's take a photo together."

Bai Zhe: "Wait..."

Fengguang: "Boss, remember to make us look better."

The owner laughed. "Don't worry, you can relax."

Right before the sound of the shutter, the sweet, smiling, and pretty woman tightly hugged the man beside her while the frowning man tried to pry her off. All of which were captured into the picture.

"Boss, can I place our photo here?" Fengguang happily pointed towards an empty space on the wall.

The owner carefully stuck the photo on the wall.

She was being overly passionate. Bai Zhe continued frowning and said, "Don't you think this is embarrassing?"

"What?" Fengguang glanced at him with disapproval. "By putting our photo here, we're letting more people know you're my boyfriend. Isn't that a good thing?"

No, not good.

But at least before his plan succeeded, Bai Zhe would choose to remain quiet and not say such honest words.

Bai Zhe paid for the food, and then followed Fengguang who was happily heading towards the door after finishing her food. He conveniently tore the photo off the wall and put it into his pocket. He wasn't so stupid to leave his photo here for others' enjoyment.

"I'll drive you back."

"No, I don't want to. I haven't played enough yet."

Fengguang was standing in the street, the city lights making her silhouette appear a little lonely.

She was still wearing a dress and the night winds were not as gentle or warm as during the day.

"Miss Xia, you're troubling me if you're going to continue being like this." Leaving a banquet with the Xia family miss in the middle of the night was already a troubling issue to explain. The later they returned, the harder it would be for him to salvage the situation.

"Ah, my laces became untied." Fengguang stepped forward with her left leg. "Help me tie them and I'll go back with you."

Bai Zhe glanced around. No one was watching them in particular. At most, there were a few who took a second look but just assumed they were a handsome couple.

He knelt down and took the clean, white laces in his long fingers. Anyone who saw his hands would want to hold onto them for a lifetime.

"Bai Zhe, say, doesn't it look like you're proposing to me right now?"

Her face was dyed in the light that came from above. Her eyes were clear like blue waves, filled with warmth and shone in the night.

Bai Zhe froze as he gazed directly at her.
