n“Thank you.” Xu Baohan held An Lan’s hand tightly.

nAt night, the ancient town was especially lively and beautiful. An Lan liked to look at small things. One moment, she chose a hand-made shawl in a shop. The next moment, she took a fancy to a hand-made earring and asked Xu Baohan to help her put it on.

n

n

nHe wore it clumsily. An Lan was so impatient that she had no choice but to ask the shop assistant to put it on her.

nAs a man who was confident in himself, this was the first time Xu Baohan felt defeated. “I’m sorry, I’m new to this. I’ve never done this before.”

nAn Lan held his hand. “It’s alright, you’ll get used to it after wearing it a few more times. As for you, the most important thing is to pay the bill.”

n“I’m best at this.” Xu Baohan quickly took out his wallet. He felt that after waiting for so many years, his money had finally been put to good use, but he just didn’t understand why women liked to buy things and shop so much.

n

n

nFrom 7 o’clock to 9 o’clock, An Lan didn’t show any signs of fatigue. She even chose all kinds of ornaments.

nXu Baohan took a photo of the night scene of the ancient city and sent it to his wechat moments as a memento: our first trip together…

nFive minutes later, he went to check his wechat moments. Nian Junting left a message, “Oh, I’ve been to this place too many times. My wife and I went to a beautiful beach for our first trip together. We watched the sunset, went diving and swimming together…”

nXiao Si replied to Nian junting, “Ting, why are you everywhere? Can’t you just calm down? Still showing off your love after so many years?”

n

n

nNian Junting replied to Xiao Si, “When did you add him on wechat?”

nXiao Si replied to Nian Junting, “The last time I got married, I think your wife was added as well.”

nNian Junting was silent.

nIn front, An Lan had already chosen her stuff. Xu Baohan put away his phone and went forward to greet her.

nThey strolled until around ten o’clock. They felt that the place they were strolling in was a little off the track, and there were fewer and fewer people. The lights had also dimmed, so An Lan gave up on continuing to stroll.

nAs they were too far from the inn, on their way back, they walked for more than ten minutes. Many shops on the street were closed, and the number of tourists was gradually decreasing. When they passed by the washroom, Xu Baohan said that he wanted to go in.

n

n

nAn Lan was waiting outside. When Xu Baohan came out from the washroom, he realized that An Lan was no longer where she was. This previously bustling alley now looked like a monster that was swallowing people.

nHe remembered that before they left the inn, the boss had reminded them that some girls had been robbed recently. His heart suddenly felt like it was being squeezed by a large hand, and he was so flustered that he couldn’t breathe.

nAs a judge, it was important to be calm. However, at this moment, he was really flustered and his fingertips were trembling slightly.

n“An Lan, An Lan,” He shouted as he ran in the alley. He even ran into a few people whom he asked questions but there was no news at all. He didn’t even hear An Lan’s voice.

nJust as he was flustered and wanted to call the police, his phone suddenly rang.

nHe quickly took it out and when he saw that it was An Lan calling, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Where did you go? Are you alright? Didn’t I tell you to wait at the entrance of the toilet?”

n“I just went to the ladies’ toilet and when I came out, I saw you running forward like a maniac. I couldn’t even stop you when I shouted at you. What happened to you?” An Lan was confused. “Were you robbed?”

n“…”

n

n

nXu Baohan’s mind froze for a moment before he suddenly covered his head and laughed out loud. He had laughed at his own foolishness.

nAn Lan was confused by his laughter. “Did you really get robbed? Wait there, don’t move, I’m coming. Don’t fight head-on with someone with your neck like this. If you have lost the money, so be it. The important thing is that you’re fine.”
