An Baobei and Ning Zihan discuss marriage, with An Baobei expressing concerns about Ning Zihan's pessimistic views stemming from his mother's actions. Ning Zihan reassures her that he only has eyes for her and would never consider divorce. He also struggles with his dislike for An Baobei's mother, and the conversation takes a playful turn when Ning Zihan attempts to propose, leading to laughter and comparisons to An Baobei's father.

Ning Zihan wore a sullen expression.

"However," An Baobei ignored his dark face, still smiling warmly, "I do like men like you."

Upon hearing this, Ning Zihan couldn’t suppress the corner of his mouth from turning upwards.

"Also," An Baobei continued, "a proposal needs a ring and flowers. I haven’t seen any ring or flowers from you. Next time you propose, don’t be so perfunctory."

Ning Zihan hugged her waist, pulling her closer, and asked, "How many times do you want me to propose before you’re willing to marry me? Tell me, so I have an idea."

An Baobei lifted her chin proudly, "I’m not telling you!"

Ning Zihan’s eyes filled with indulgence and tolerance, "Seems like you’re planning to marry me, just not agreeing now."

"Don’t be so sharp! Every time! Can you give me some face?!" An Baobei glared at him, annoyed.

But Ning Zihan wasn’t angry at all, instead teasingly kissed An Baobei. She tried to dodge a few times but couldn’t, so she let him kiss her. An Baobei wasn’t angry anymore, even playfully biting him during his kiss.

Ning Zihan didn’t mind being bitten by An Baobei; to him, it was a playful tease between them.

"Where shall we go tomorrow?" he asked An Baobei as she settled back into his arms.

Upon hearing his question, An Baobei happily suggested, "How about accompanying me shopping tomorrow?"

"Hmm." After a pause, "And buy you some short skirts."

An Baobei blushed immediately and punched him, "If you buy them, I won’t wear them. Not buying!"

"Once we’re married, you can wear them for me, right? We can buy them now and leave them there. It’s okay; I don’t mind spending that money."

"You sure have sweet dreams!"

Ning Zihan didn’t respond to her teasing but asked, "What do you want to buy while shopping tomorrow?"

"I don’t want anything in particular, just want you to accompany me at the mall. Of course, if I see something I like, I’ll buy it."

...

The next day, at ten in the morning, Ning Zihan and An Baobei planned to go out shopping. But before they could leave the villa, they heard the sound of a car horn outside, indicating that a car had stopped at the villa’s entrance.

Next, Ning Zihan’s phone rang.

Ning Zihan took out his phone and saw Li Junlin calling. He glanced at An Baobei before answering, "What’s up?"

"I brought Wutong to E City for business and thought of visiting you. We’re at your villa gate, are you there? If yes, open the door quickly and let us in."

Ning Zihan realized that a car was indeed parked at the gate, and Li Junlin had arrived. Unable to send Li Junlin away, Ning Zihan instructed the housekeeper to open the villa’s gate for Li Junlin to drive in.

Seeing Ning Zihan a bit displeased, An Baobei smiled, "If you’re concerned about me, it’s okay. Don’t be like this."

Ning Zihan merely nodded and didn’t say anything.

Once inside, Li Junlin immediately saw An Baobei in the living room. He knew his timing wasn’t right, but since he was already there, he acted as if nothing was wrong, continuing to walk towards Ning Zihan with his wife Li Wutong.

Ning Zihan then softly introduced to An Baobei as Li Junlin and Li Wutong neared them, "You know Li Junlin, so I won’t introduce him. That is his wife, Li Wutong."

Then Ning Zihan calmly said to Li Wutong, "Wutong, this is my girlfriend An Baobei."
