Tan Zheng did not go too far, releasing Song Ni when the sun had fully risen. Perhaps sensing the man's excitement at her wearing his clothes, Song Ni also chose not to wear her own. She directly put on Tan Zheng's white shirt, denim shorts, and a pair of white sneakers, exuding youthful energy. She tied a high ponytail and turned in front of the mirror, asking the man behind her, "Does it look good?" Tan Zheng was holding a camera, recording. It was Song Ni's request. "It looks good." Song Ni also quite liked this outfit, striking many poses and making various expressions in front of the camera. Tan Zheng willingly played the role of a stand, capturing a different side of her. The small town remained quiet even during the day. The couple did not choose to drive but rode bicycles, with a flower-decorated seat at the back. Song Ni sat on it, lifting her legs high, like a child rediscovering her innocence. Tan Zheng wore a white tracksuit, sleeveless, revealing his firm forearms. Song Ni put one arm around his waist and held the camera with the other. "Babies, although our Tan Shen is a great driver, his cycling skills are, I think, a bit lacking. I should have given him a ride earlier." Hearing this, Tan Zheng chuckled. "Who was it that broke their leg falling off a bike?" Song Ni reached out and pinched the man's waist. "What do you know? I was just distracted. You ride properly and don't you dare fall with me." Tan Zheng agreed with a smile. "Yes, of course, I wouldn't let my darling fall." Song Ni's cheeks blushed slightly, but in the sunlight, it was hard to tell. Along the way, many residents of the small town greeted them. Children played by the roadside, women trimmed flowers in their yards, and men climbed ladders to repair roofs. The colorful glass windows held everyone's aspirations for life. Tan Zheng rode slowly, afraid Song Ni would lose her balance. The weather here was excellent. After about half an hour of cycling, they reached the lake. Song Ni found a spot, set up the camera, and then paid no more attention to it. While capturing moments was important, truly experiencing and enjoying them was even more so. The English countryside town was neat and tranquil, simple yet elegant, possessing the boundless charm and romance bestowed by nature. And Lake Lomond seemed particularly serene. Sunlight cast a golden sheen on the lake's surface, making everything unbelievably beautiful, hazy as if in a fairyland. Song Ni instinctively quietened her steps, stood by the lake, opened her arms, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath. Her heart felt at ease. Tan Zheng stood not far from her, then sat down and took out paper and pen. He said that his painting ability was innate, but he had only ever drawn cars, never anything else. He also wanted to see if his proclaimed talent could capture the Song Ni in his mind. Song Ni turned and saw Tan Zheng holding a pen, one eye closed, looking at her. "Are you going to draw me? Can I move?" "Yes, do whatever you want." Song Ni's eyes flickered, and she sat down opposite Tan Zheng, also taking out paper and pen. She wanted to draw her Tan Zheng who was drawing. And so, by Lake Lomond, this scene unfolded: a pair of lovers sat opposite each other, painting each other. Song Ni took more time to draw than Tan Zheng. Soon, Tan Zheng, diligently drawing, appeared on the paper. Song Ni made a change, transforming Tan Zheng, who originally had his eyes lowered, to be looking at her. After finishing, she walked behind Tan Zheng with her paper and was surprised by the person on the paper. Tan Zheng was drawing her standing by the lake with her arms outstretched. He had only glanced a few times, yet he had captured the entire scene, even the details. Song Ni could tell that Tan Zheng's lines were a bit stiff when drawing figures, but his meticulousness was undeniable. He revised and refined, drawing every part with great detail. Song Ni even felt that the person in the painting was more beautiful than she was. When Tan Zheng put down his last stroke, Song Ni couldn't help but exclaim, "You paint so well. So, I'm this beautiful in your eyes?" Tan Zheng smiled and looked up at her. "You are always the most beautiful in my eyes." Another sweet noth. Song Ni had gradually grown accustomed to Tan Zheng's barrage of sweet words, but every time she heard them, her heart couldn't help but feel happy. She showed him her work. Tan Zheng took it, and upon seeing the eyes of the person in the painting, his brow twitched slightly. "So, in your eyes, I'm this deeply affectionate?" Those doting eyes would make anyone, even an outsider, swoon. Song Ni leaned in, hugged the man from behind, resting her head on his shoulder, and reached for his hand. "This is how I see you. I've just painted it truthfully." Who could know how much her heart was touched every time she saw that look in Tan Zheng's eyes? To others, he might seem indifferent and heartless, but to her, he was incredibly devoted. This was her unique Tan Zheng. Tan Zheng lowered his head and kissed her fingertips. "Let's walk around the lake." Song Ni had the same idea. Having lived in the city for so long, accustomed to the glitz and glamour, the worldly hustle and bustle, coming to such a tranquil place, her mood shifted with nature. She forgot many things, leaving only the two of them. It was too beautiful. Song Ni saw a little girl skipping happily, held by her parents, and a smile naturally spread across her lips. "When we have children in the future, let's come back here again. I believe she will be very happy too." Children. This was Song Ni actively bringing up the topic again. Tan Zheng unconsciously tightened his grip. "Do you like the house we're staying in?" "I do." "Then let's buy it. When we have a baby, we'll bring them here." Song Ni froze. She hadn't expected Tan Zheng to genuinely consider buying a house. That would be fine. She truly liked this small town. "Okay, after we go back, let's get these two paintings framed and put them in the house. Then, when we bring the baby over, we can show it to her." Tan Zheng smiled and kissed her on the cheek. On the way back, Song Ni suddenly remembered something. "When we have a baby, what will you call me?" Tan Zheng chuckled. "I'll call you 'Guai Guai' (good girl)." Song Ni snorted, pouting slightly, clearly not satisfied with Tan Zheng's answer. The man understood her reaction very well. "Then I'll keep calling you 'Bao Bao' (baby)." Song Ni wrinkled her nose. "Then what about Bao Bao?" "Let's call her 'Bei Bei' (darling)." Song Ni considered both names. Perhaps feeling that she should be a bit kinder to her own child, after some thought, she said, "How about still calling me Bao Bao? And you call me Bei Bei." "......" "No?" "Yes, Bei Bei, whatever you say." Song Ni: ...... Tan Zheng was too easily swayed. Song Ni raised her hand and squeezed her earlobe. Bao Bao. Bei Bei. Hiss! It seems Bei Bei sounds pretty good too!70
