Chapter 263: It is Everyone’s Responsibility to Look After Children
A brief moment later, Lu Jingzhi could feel her small and delicate fingers brushing his. Although she was trying her best to be careful, her technique was just too rough and she could not get an accurate measurement no matter how hard she tried.
Jiang Yuning used the piece of string around Lu Jingzhi’s finger for a long time and she was already breaking out in cold sweat because she was afraid that she would wake Lu Jingzhi up. At this time, she suddenly remembered that she should have measured his ring finger instead of his middle finger. She wanted to curse at herself because she had been tossing the string around Lu Jingzhi’s middle finger all this time. Now, she had to repeat the measurement all over again.
“Sigh…”
What a silly girl.
She was only ever this dense and clumsy in front of Lu Jingzhi.
The man who had been lying motionless all this while suddenly felt that the situation was unbearable. So, he decided to sit up as he placed his hand over Jiang Yuning’s and asked, “Do you need my help?”
“Are you awake?” Jiang Yuning asked as she was stunned.
Lu Jingzhi gave her a tight hug before he answered in a serious manner, “Silly girl. My ring size is eighteen. If you continue measuring me, I am going to lose my finger.”
As soon as Jing Yuning heard Lu Jingzhi’s words, she quickly threw the string away before she looked at the man sitting in front of her. “Were you pretending to be asleep all along? Are you making fun of me now? See, this won’t be a surprise anymore! You’ve spoiled everything!”
Lu Jingzhi looked at Jiang Yuning and after a split second, he let go of her and opened the bedside drawer that was right next to him. Then, he took out a box before he handed it over to Jiang Yuning. “Open it.”
Jiang Yuning opened the box with a suspicious expression on her face. In addition to their marriage certificates, there were two wedding rings lying inside the box.
Lu Jingzhi took out the female ring from the box and placed it in Jiang Yuning’s palm before hugged her tightly in his arms. “The French designer told me that the name of this wedding ring is ‘Holding Hearts’.”
This was because the shape of the ring, with its eight prongs holding onto the diamond, resembled human hands holding onto a heart.
“It is really special.” Jiang Yuning slipped the ring onto her finger as she moved her hand around under the dim light. The diamond ring on her finger sparkled brightly. “What about the man’s ring?”
Jiang Yuning hurriedly looked at the man’s ring and found that it was very simple and hollow.
“This ring is called ‘Locking Hearts’.” This was because as soon as Jiang Yuning placed her ring into his, both the rings fit perfectly as though they were one.
Jiang Yuning took the ring out of the box and grabbed Lu Jingzhi’s hand immediately so that she could put the ring onto his finger.
The pair of rings looked magical and it was obvious that they belonged together.
After putting on the wedding ring, Jiang Yuning broke free from Lu Jingzhi’s grasp and rolled towards the other end of the bed before she asked him, “When did you prepare the wedding rings? Why didn’t you tell me anything about it?”
“I thought that you would not want to wear the ring.”
“I cannot be wearing the ring because it would be very inconvenient for me when I participate in events or activities. Moreover, I have to record the fourth issue of tomorrow and I would probably be crawling around the grass or digging into the ground then. I cannot bear to wear this beautiful ring in such situations. After we make our relationship known to the public, I will wear this ring every day…”
After that, Jiang Yuning took the ring off and placed it back into the box.
It was obvious that she was very unwilling to put the ring back.
At this time, Lu Jingzhi picked up the ring and put it onto her finger once again. “Take it off in the morning tomorrow.”
That night, the couple finally wore their wedding rings together for the very first time. Although they did not have any ring exchange ceremony, it was still a very memorable moment for them as they put on the rings representing their token of trust and affection for one another.
Jiang Yuning fell asleep with a sweet smile on her face.
…
Early the next morning, Vera arrived in front of the Royal Dragon Villa because she wanted to pick Jiang Yuning up and drive her to the recording set for the fourth issue of .
However, Vera did not expect that Jiang Yuning’s first sentence to her that day would be to inform her that she no longer needed to customize or prepare any wedding rings.
“Hehehe. Second brother has already prepared the wedding rings for us.”
As soon as Vera heard Jiang Yuning’s words, she could not help but roll her eyes. “Do you really need to tell me all this so early in the morning?”
“To be honest, you actually have a chance to…” Jiang Yuning started speaking.
“Next time, I will just ask the young paparazzo to fetch you instead of allowing you to annoy me like this. After dropping you off, I have to go over to Xiya Hotel again because of An Yiqing’s matter. There would be other artistes coming over to audition for the role. It is really not easy to offer your resources over to her.”
“When you are done, make sure to find an opportunity to disclose this matter to An Yiqing’s agent so that we would not be doing all this in vain. Otherwise, the other party might end up hating us for no reason if she assumes that we have not done anything to help her at all,” Jiang Yuning instructed Vera immediately.
“Don’t worry. I know what I need to do.”
Jiang Yuning was naturally relieved because she trusted Vera. After Vera dropped her off at the recording set, Jiang Yuning urged Vera to leave and get to work as soon as possible.
This time, the production team arranged for all of the participants to gather at a small farmhouse on the outskirts of Luo City. The celebrity group were even more united after experiencing and overcoming a tough ordeal together.
The nine participants were then brought to the water coast towards the south of Luo City and after getting off the train, Jin Mingchen could not help but asked Jiang Yuning, “Sister Yuning, don’t you think that the production team are looking at us with more kindness in their eyes today?”
Jiang Yuning glanced at the production team and crew before she smiled. “I guess they are probably kinder towards you today. After all, it is everyone’s responsibility to look after children.”
“Hahaha…”
The other guest started laughing immediately.
“Sister Yuning, you are bullying me again!”
“Among all of us, the person who treats you the best and takes care of you the most is Yuning! You’d better start behaving yourself and create less trouble from now on!” Qi Mo replied to Jin Mingchen immediately.
“Okay guys, we are going to announce the rules of the mission for the fourth issue of now. The theme for this issue is . As the title suggests, your mission will be conducted on the small island on your left that is only about forty thousand metres big. There are almost completely no resources available on the island. The nine of you will be working together as a team to complete the mission this time.”
“The tide will usually rise and there will be high tide on this island as soon as it gets dark. When the tide is high, the entire island will be completely submerged in the water. Your mission this time is to build a house that can fit all nine of you so that you can be sheltered and free from the water when night falls.”
“You will be allowed to venture into the woods right next to the island to gather any supplies or materials that you might need, but you will only be given two hours to do so. Besides that, you are not allowed to chop down any trees or do anything that will harm the ecology of the woods.”
In other words, the nine of them would have to work together to complete the mission this time.
Didn’t some of Jin Mingchen’s fans say that it seemed as though this program was only focusing on Jiang Yuning?
This was the reason why the production team had decided to make changes to the mission immediately. This time, each and every one of the participants held an equally important role in fulfilling the mission.
“This time, you will be allowed to bring your cell phone along with you to search for any information or to call for help. In other words, all nine of you will all be spending the next twenty-four hours together on this island. Whether rain or shine, you will all be going through it together.”
“Now, we will give all of you about half an hour to discuss and plan your strategy. We will officially begin the mission at eight thirty.”
The nine participants exchanged glances with one another and after a brief moment, the male participants then raised their hands and said, “I can do all the physical work.”
“I can swim very well! I can dive into the sea and catch some fish for us for dinner!” Jin Mingchen yelled as he jumped around excitedly. “Sister Yuning, you can discuss and plan your strategy with some of them and the rest of us will definitely act and participate accordingly!”
Even though each and every one of them were willing participants and even though they were all very united, it seemed as though it would be completely impossible to build a small house that could withstand the high tide and strong waves within twelve hours without any help or equipment at all.
