Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

After receiving the news, Qianqian was in an exceptionally excited mood; she couldn't wait to have Mantou help her dress up. Before long, Qianqian looked completely renewed, radiant and dazzling. Afterward, she and Mantou hurried together toward the front hall.

At the same time, upon learning this news, An Wangfei unhesitatingly ordered Chunxi: "Quickly send some people to guard the front hall! Remember, apart from Qianqian, no one is allowed to enter without permission!" Upon receiving the order, Chunxi did not dare to be negligent, swiftly took action, and personally waited at the front hall entrance for Qianqian's arrival.

When Qianqian stepped into the front hall, she caught sight at a glance of Chunxi, who had been waiting there for quite some time.

Seeing Qianqian approach, Chunxi hurriedly performed a respectful salute and called out loudly: "Fifth Miss!"

Seeing this, Qianqian smiled faintly and replied: "Chunxi, why are you here?"

Chunxi hurriedly explained: "Reporting to Fifth Miss, Wangfei heard that Young Master Su had arrived and worried that other servants might not receive him properly, so she specially sent this servant to attend to you."

After hearing this, Qianqian waved her hand, indicating there was no need for such trouble; she only needed tea and snacks prepared, then told Chunxi to withdraw on her own. Chunxi responded: "Everything has been properly arranged; please rest assured, Fifth Miss." With that, Qianqian nodded in satisfaction, turned, and walked toward the inner room.

Mantou, who had been following behind, originally wanted to follow closely, but was suddenly grabbed tightly by the arm by Chunxi standing to the side.

Mantou was instantly at a loss, a puzzled look appearing on her face, but she did not open her mouth to ask the reason, merely standing silently in place watching Qianqian grow farther away.

However, at this moment Qianqian was completely immersed in the joy of soon seeing Su Muchun, and had no leisure to care whether Mantou was still following behind.

Qianqian had just entered the front hall when she saw Su Muchun sitting upright drinking tea, and she asked softly: "A Ren, why didn't you go to the palace for duty today?"

Because everyone in An Wang Fu knew Su Muchun's original identity, and Qianqian had always addressed him this way, she did not change her form of address.

As for other outsiders, such as An Wangfei and An Wang, they called him "Xiao Su." However, whenever Ouyang Chengren heard his name spoken from Qianqian's mouth, his heart still involuntarily beat a few extra times.

After all, over this past month the relationship between the two had grown increasingly intimate. At first, Qianqian called him directly by name, but after he changed his name, the two discussed and decided that when they eventually married, they would inevitably have to appear in public.

At that time, if she habitually called him Ouyang Chengren, it might instead create unnecessary complications and invite trouble.

Thus, Qianqian changed to calling him "A Ren," while he still called her "Qianqian" as before. Su Muchun came back to his senses and replied: "I have to go on night duty tonight. Yesterday I received my salary and specially purchased a jade hairpin and a pair of earrings for you; I wonder if you still like them?"

Finished speaking, he unhurriedly took out a small, exquisite cloth bundle from his bosom.

This cloth bundle was wrapped tightly and neatly, as if it contained some peerless treasure. Then, he carefully handed it to Qianqian.

Qianqian took the small cloth bundle with great joy, then gently untied the knot and slowly unfolded the wrapping.

When she saw clearly what was inside, her eyes instantly brightened — it turned out to be a pair of exquisite hairpins inlaid with pink gems and a matching pair of earrings!

"Wow..." Qianqian couldn't help exclaiming, reaching out a finger to gently touch the hairpin, feeling its delicate smooth texture and the faint luster it emitted.

"This color is really too pretty! Pink and tender, it's simply my favorite! Quickly help me put it on~" Saying this, Qianqian impatiently held the hairpin out to Su Muchun.

Su Muchun smiled and nodded in agreement. He reached out to take the hairpin Qianqian handed over, and was just about to put it on for her when he noticed that today Qianqian already had a magnificent hairpin inserted in her hair.

So he softly reminded her: "It would be more convenient to take off the original hairpin first, then put on this new one."

Hearing this, Qianqian hurriedly reached out to remove the original hairpin, and actively leaned her head forward, signaling for Su Muchun to help insert the new hairpin into a suitable position.

Just then, Ouyang Chengren, who had been standing silently observing to the side, suddenly discovered a delicate face appearing before his eyes without warning, and at such a close distance that he could even feel the warm breath from the other's breathing.

In an instant, a strange feeling surged in his heart, causing his earlobes to redden slightly involuntarily, but he quickly recovered, steadily picked up the hairpin, and accurately inserted it into the hair bun from which the old hairpin had just been removed.

"Done~" After everything was tidied up, Su Muchun said gently to Qianqian.

Hearing this, Qianqian immediately returned to her seat, touched the hairpin. Immediately after, she unhesitatingly took off the earrings she was originally wearing and put on the pair of pink gem earrings that matched the hairpin.

Finally, she turned her head again to look at Su Muchun, asking with an expectant face: "How is it, A Ren, does it look good?"

Su Muchun blurted out without thinking: "Of course it looks good!"

Then he added: "You're beautiful to begin with; even without dressing up you're beautiful."

He has never been good with words, especially when facing the woman he loves, but at this moment his mind held only one thought — Qianqian is truly too beautiful; no matter what she wears or what accessories she puts on, she is that captivating. This sincere emotion flowed naturally from his mouth, causing Qianqian's cheeks to flush red, and she bashfully lowered her head and replied softly: "Thank you, A Ren..."

However, Ouyang Chengren suddenly felt a pang of guilt well up in his heart; he looked at the exquisite, expensive bracelet on Qianqian's wrist, secretly sighed, and said: "As long as you like it...

Actually I know the accessories you usually wear are very costly, but my salary is meager now and I can't afford to buy you overly precious gifts. But rest assured, I will definitely work twice as hard to earn money, and in the future I will certainly be able to buy you even more magnificent and exquisite jewelry!"

After saying this, he tightly held Qianqian's hand, his gaze determined and full of affection.

Listening to Ouyang Chengren's deeply affectionate confession, Qianqian's heart was filled with emotion and warmth. She raised her head and gazed at this plain yet wholeheartedly loving man before her, and said gently: "Anything you give me, I will like very much."

The two just sat quietly together like this, enjoying this moment of peaceful, beautiful time, undisturbed by any outside interference.

After a while, Su Muchun suddenly remembered something and asked Qianqian curiously: "Right, are your father and mother at home today?" Qianqian shook her head and said: "I'm not sure if Father is at home, but Mother is definitely at home."
