On Lin Qingyu’s first Qixi Festival in modern times, Jiang Xing made a perfect date plan in order to give Lin Qingyu a firsthand experience of the sweetness of their married life.
The first stop on their date was the zoo and then the amusement park. Jiang Xing had a great plan. They’d first feed the giraffes and then take a look at the giant pandas. At night, when the fireworks in the amusement park are set off, he and Lin Qingyu will kiss at the highest point of the Ferris wheel. It was all very romantic.
After lunch, the two of them sent Shen Huaishi off to his summer football interest class. They then set off according to their original plan.
The moment they left the range of the air conditioner, waves of heat rushed towards them. It was as though they were standing before the external exhaust of an air conditioner. The road seemed to warp under the high temperature. They stood before a volcano, one looking at the other and the other looking right on back, looking at each other blankly.
Jiang Xing took out his phone and checked the temperature: 41.5°C.

Jiang Xing thought for a while and said, “Why don’t we find somewhere air-conditioned for our date? Do you have anything you want to buy? I’ll take you shopping at the mall and we can watch a movie while we’re there?”
Lin Qingyu, the future medical student, said, “I want a full set of lab equipment and reagents. I’m going to try to cultivate penicillin. Can these be bought in the mall?”
Jiang Xing: “…I’m afraid not.”
“Then why do we still have to go out?” After just a short while outside, Lin Qingyu’s cheeks were already slightly red from the sun. A thin trail of sweat meandered down his nose. “Jiang Xing, your hometown is too hot. I’ve had enough, I want to go back to the Dayu.”
Lin Qingyu, who was losing his cool literally and figuratively, was made a little more vividly beautiful and the future college student felt both distressed and a little like laughing. “Don’t be angry. It’s not this hot every year. But this year is indeed too much. ”
Thinking of how they would have to undergo military training in this scorching heat after school starts, Jiang Xing wished he could pick up Shen Huaishi and follow Lin Qingyu back to the Dayu that very night.
No one would want to go out in this sweltering heat. If this was in the past, Jiang Xing would lie in his air-conditioned room for the entire summer vacation. But things were different now, he was no longer a salted fish living alone.
He was willing to get up early for Lin Qingyu and he was also willing to go out in the 40-degree heat for Lin Qingyu – if Lin Qingyu wanted to go out, he really… could.
“I’ve even reserved a table at an overpriced restaurant.” Jiang Xing said, “If we drive there, it shouldn’t be too hot.”
However, Jiang Xing hasn’t obtained his driver’s license yet, so it would be up to Lin Qingyu, this ancient man, to drive.
Lin Qingyu squinted against the dazzling sunlight. He asked, “Can this super expensive restaurant deliver?”
…The power of nature is too scary; able to turn his amazing wife into a house-bound beauty who just wants to stay at home.
“I can ask. But Qingyu, it’s the Qixi Festival.” Jiang Xing hesitated, “Qixi is a day for lovers. We can’t just stay at home and spend it doing nothing special. — Of course, I don’t have to go out. I’ll go with whatever you want.”
Lin Qingyu said, “Since I’ve arrived here, you’ve taken me out for Christmas, New Year’s Day, Spring Festival, our anniversary, Valentine’s Day, White Day, my birthday, 520, Children’s Day, 618 mid-year promotion… …Every time — no, every day is like Qixi. It’s enough.” Lin Qingyu paused, “If you don’t want to pass the day without doing anything, then let’s sleep together tonight and I’ll have you work til you’re tired.”
Is there such a good thing?
Jiang Xing couldn’t believe it. His eyes, as he looked at Lin Qingyu, was clearly saying: ‘What kind of fantastical wife is this? Thank the Heavens for this gift!’
Lin Qingyu asked, puzzled, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.” Jiang Xing smiled and grabbed Lin Qingyu’s shoulders, walking him back in. “Let’s go, Baobei. Laogong will turn on the air conditioner, order you the most expensive takeaway and milk tea and then buy a set of lab equipment online—— How about I buy you a white lab coat and gloves too? Tonight, we can hide from Huaishi in our room and you can show me how you look wearing them…”
Lin Qingyu smiled slightly. “Okay.”

…I almost forgot these two had a long, dog-blood drama-esque, three lifetime long romance in Ancient China… because they’re simply too suited for a slice-of-life, modern romcom 😩😩
