The apple orchard was over and they entered the place where strawberries were growing. Xie Yuansheng noticed that they were grown under covered tents and the temperature was controlled inside. When they stepped in, he saw that small strawberry plants were growing in neat rows and red strawberries were hanging. He couldn't control the urge and ran to the farthest end of the plantation. From there, he started plucking strawberries. Feng Xinying had taken another basket that was lying on the outside. She would bend a little and pluck them slowly. Soon Xie Yuansheng's basket was full even before Feng Xinying's had plucked a few of them.

At the end of the walk, Xie Yuansheng had two baskets full of fruits while Feng Xinying walked with a small one and that too it wasn't full. Xie Yuansheng scrunched his nose looking at her basket and commented, "What a waste of a basket?"

Feng Xinying laughed. She knew that he had forgotten past two days depression. The outing did wonders for him. Since everything was paid for, the farm owner only collected the baskets and packed the fruits in bags. He sent them to the driver. It was almost one hour before the couple came out. Xie Yuansheng was invigorated but Feng Xinying was tired. But looking at his spirits she said, "Should we go home or do you want to do something else?"

Since he felt energized, he wanted to do more. He didn't want to return home. So he looked at her with eagerness. "I can go around this farm once more!" he replied with hope that Feng Xinying would allow him.

She chuckled and said, "In fact I have a better place for us to visit."

"Oh! Where?" he asked as they walked towards the car.

"River side."

Excited at the thought of it, he smiled and opened the door for her. Feng Xinying sat down and he closed the door for her softly. When he sat inside, he held her hand and kissed it lightly. "Let's go!"

The river was located on the outskirts of the city and it took them an hour to reach. Feng Xinying had closed her eyes and rested on the back seat of the car. She didn't realize but she had dozed off. Xie Yuansheng saw that her head was rolling around so gently he held her head and placed it on his shoulders. He woke her when they reached the riverside.

There were some people already present over there who were fishing or walking alongside the river. Children were also present who were making houses from the pebbles lying over there. When Feng Xinying and Xie Yuansheng got out of the car and walked to the banks hand-in-hand, they looked so pretty and classy as a couple that people looked at them with appreciation.

Even though it was cold wintertime and freezing, walking hand-in-hand beside the tranquil river on the pebbles was simply therapeutic. After walking for ten minutes, he stopped behind Feng Xinying.

She looked at him and said, "Shengu, let's walk a little more and then we will go back."

But Xie Yuansheng wrapped his arms her from behind. She looked up and brought her hands around his neck. He pecked on her lips and then rested his head on hers. Together they watched the horizon where the sun was almost setting.

He whispered in her ears, "I love you, Feng Xinying."

She smiled and moved her head up to see him again. He planted a kiss on her lips. When she looked back in front he said, "How can I steal you from your husband?"

Feng Xinying patted his hand and had a strong urge to tell him that she was pregnant but refrained because he had such a good time and was out of his depression. She didn't want to spoil the day. She sighed.

People around them saw a beautiful couple that looked as though walking out of the picture. Soft wind blowing around them made their hair rustle a little and they gave an aura if epitome of love.

They returned home and Xie Yuansheng was feeling refreshed. He thanked Feng Xinying for taking him out. She said, "It isn't over yet."

He frowned a little with puzzle in his eyes. She just held his hand and pulled him to the backyard of the house. Surrounded by bamboos on all sides the backyard was magnificently done by the gardener. Xie Yuansheng noticed that some arrangements were done there. On a closer inspection, his lips curved up when he saw that there was a portable movie theater comprising of a screen, a projector and a speaker system. He chuckled and said, "Xinying you are pretty creative! This is simply too good."

She smiled as she took him to sit on a luxurious wicker garden oval shaped daybed, which had a soft mattress and cushions behind for them to lie down and watch the movie.

Lu Boyun had already arranged for wine and food.

Feng Xinying poured a glass of wine for him after she made him sit on the daybed and offered it to him.

"Won't you have it?" he asked.

She shook her head. She wanted to take precautions now that she was entering the fifth month of pregnancy.

Feng Xinying picked up the remote of the projector and pressed the play button to start the movie. It was a historical movie. She had first thought of showing him her movie, but she thought that would make him curious about her. She went to him and slipped beside him in a warm blanket. Since it was chilly, she just leaned against him on his chest to become warmer. Xie Yuansheng stroked her hair lovingly and sipped wine as they watched the movie. Suddenly Feng Xinying felt very hot inside the blanket and all the heat was coming from one source.

"Xie Yuansheng, what is wrong with you?" she asked trying to get away from there. "Can't we watch the movie peacefully?"

"I am very peaceful," he replied and then kept his wine glass on the side table. He unzipped his pants and his erection sprang free. "I can't help with this fella here! He has his own brain."

Feng Xinying tried to remove the blanket and get out of there but he caught her in time and said sultry eyes, "This one needs you." He held her hand and brought it on it to begin stroking it.

She stroked it for some time and then wrapped it in her mouth. With the way she was slapping her tongue around it, Xie Yuansheng couldn't stop himself and tipped over very soon. When it was over, he pulled her to him and kissed her passionately. "Thanks," he said. She smiled and closing her eyes, she leaned near him. Xie Yuansheng didn't zip his pants and picked his glass from the table. He started watching the movie. The night was perfect, the day was perfect and the person beside him was perfect. When he looked at her next, she was already sleeping. He sat there for some time to watch the movie and then picked up Feng Xinying to take her to her bedroom.

When he was going there, she woke up a little and mumbled, "I can walk Shengu."

"Hmm… I love to carry you," he replied softly and carried her to his bedroom where he made her lie on the mattress and slipped right next to her.

"She is becoming heavier," he thought but soon slept, spooning her.
