I almost touched the moon

Chapter 386 Seeking marriage is very effective

At the end of March, Kyoto’s cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and the Somei Yoshino tree in front of Wen Song’s house was covered with pink and white flowers, facing the Kamo River, decorating the quaint courtyard.

As soon as the car stopped, the housekeeper came up and said to Wen Song with a smile: "Miss, Mr. Cheng, welcome home, what would you like for dinner?"

After saying that, he handed over two hot towels and asked Wen Song and Cheng Che to wipe their hands.

"Thank you, Mrs. Asano." Cheng Che said with a smile, "You don't have to prepare dinner. I will do it."

Then, they went to the tea room on the first floor and sat down. The butler served each of them a bowl of iced matcha and a bowl of hot matcha, as well as seasonal spring fruits, and said to Wen Song, "Miss, which kimono would you like to wear today?"

After saying that, he handed over a picture album and asked Wen Song to choose.

Even though Cheng Che had seen this scene many times, he was still a little uncomfortable with it, especially when he heard Mrs. Asano's words "お嬢様", he felt like he had accidentally traveled into a chaebol family in a Japanese drama.

Wen Song flipped through the album while drinking tea, and finally chose a set of elegant plain blue glazed visiting dress, paired with a platinum dark pattern waist belt, which was low-key and noble.

The housekeeper immediately nodded and smiled, and said to Wen Song: "Okay, Miss, I will dress you before you go out. Now I will leave first, please have a good rest."

After the housekeeper left, Cheng Che felt relieved. He let out a long sigh and lay down on the floor. He hugged Wen Song and said, "Baby, every time I come to your home in Kyoto, I feel so stressed..."

Wen Song also laughed, lying down and hugging Cheng Che and said: "Me too, but there is nothing I can do, Qianye is my mother's... so, you know. Well, she's not here anyway, just be casual, I did the same when I went to your grandma's house before."

Cheng Che laughed twice, kissed Wen Song's eyebrows and said, "I know, my dear. But baby, I'm really a little afraid of her."

"Why are you afraid of her?" Wen Song asked with a smile, "Aunt Qianye is really gentle. I think she is as gentle as your mother."

"Maybe it's because she's too serious..." Cheng Che said nervously, "When I see her, I think of the strict housekeepers around the young ladies in Japanese dramas. It makes me feel like a delinquent who deceived the young lady."

"Idiot." Wen Song smiled, leaned forward and half leaned on Cheng Che, kissed the corner of his lips and joked, "Compared to you, I am the bad boy, and you are the well-behaved lady."

After resting for a while, Wen Song finished her makeup and asked the housekeeper and Master Fu to help her put on a kimono. Cheng Che sat aside and watched her quietly. After she put on the kimono, he took the initiative to offer to comb her hair.

She sat in front of the dressing table, watching Cheng Che putting her hair up, and held his hand and said, "Actually, you don't have to do this for me. It's too hard for you."

"How can it be hard?" Cheng Che squatted down and hugged her and kissed her. "Have you forgotten that I promised you before that I would help you tie your hair. In fact, I also want to learn how to help my wife wear a kimono, but that is too difficult and I can't learn it."

"It's okay." Wen Song smiled and kissed his cheek, "Ah Che, you really don't need to do so much for me. I just want you to be with me."

"Okay, baby." Cheng Che lowered his head and kissed her thin lips, then stood up and continued to comb her hair. "I will always be with you."

After Cheng Che finished combing Wen Song's hair, he watched her put on the pearl earrings and couldn't help but praise her, "She's so beautiful. Can you take a picture and send it to Astrid?"

"Okay." Wen Song took a photo in front of a full-length mirror, then turned to Cheng Che and said, "What are you wearing today?"

Cheng Che thought for a moment and said, "If my wife wears a kimono, I can only wear a suit. Can you help me choose?"

"Yeah." Wen Song nodded, took his hand and walked to the cloakroom together, and chose a light gray suit for him, which matched her light blue kimono.

While putting his coat on him, she said, "How can he be so good-looking? How can there be such a good-looking person? I have really good taste."

Cheng Che also smiled, kissed Wen Song's eyes, looked at her and said, "No one is as pretty as my wife. Let's go, let's go pick up Si Yao from get off work."

At the entrance of the Institute of Physics of Kyoto University, as soon as Si Yao walked out of the gate, he saw a white Bentley Flying Spur parked there and immediately knew who was coming.

Sure enough, she saw Wen Song wearing a light blue Nishijin woven visiting dress decorated with flowing water and cherry blossom patterns. Her long hair was tied up, and she didn't wear any complicated jewelry. She only wore a pair of Australian white earrings and a diamond hairpin with a butterfly pattern as embellishment.

Beside her, Cheng Che was also wearing a light grey suit and a champagne tie. They looked like a pleasing couple.

"Professor!" Si Yao waved at her, ran over and hugged her, and said excitedly, "I really missed you. Oh my God, how come you are still so beautiful? You are so beautiful. You have become more and more beautiful over the years. By the way, Professor, I saw in the news that the Aurora Voyager has been successfully tested. When will it be launched into space?"

"Remember to come and watch on January 1 next year." Wen Song also hugged her. "I just read your paper not long ago. My research area will also focus on the origin of dark matters. I think we can have a collaboration, and this probe will also track dark matter."

Si Yao immediately said: "Of course, I'm honored. The theory you proposed before, self-interacting dark matter, the dark matter particles may interact with each other through a dark force..."

(Self-interacting dark matter, dark matter particles may interact with each other through dark forces...)

When Cheng Che heard them talking about research directions and saw Wen Song wearing a kimono but standing by the car discussing the origin of dark matter with Si Yao, he couldn't help but feel that it was a bit dramatic.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, he interrupted their conversation somewhat "inappropriately", "Two professors, let's not talk about research during vacation, right? Professor Si, what would you like to eat for dinner? Do you want to come to our house for dinner? I'll make you sukiyaki."

Si Yao smiled a little embarrassedly, and said to Cheng Che: "Master, please don't call me like that, it's embarrassing, you should just call me Si Yao or Artemis. When you come to Kyoto, I should treat you to a meal, don't be polite, I'll treat you to a meal at the Kibune Shrine. There is a particularly delicious Kaiseki restaurant, the professor took me there before, and I've already made a reservation."

Cheng Che immediately said, "Okay, Songsong and I will treat you, eat as much as you want."

"No need." Si Yao said with a smile, "I earn quite a bit now. Although I can't compare with お嬢様, I still have enough money to treat you to a meal."

Cheng Che couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said to Si Yao: "It seems that you have also been to Song Song's house. Come on, get in the car, and we will talk while we walk."

Si Yao followed them into the car, nodded and said, "Yes, it was when I was a graduate student that I first came to Japan with a professor to attend seminars at Tokyo University and Kyoto University. At that time, I wanted to experience wearing a kimono, and the professor said that the ones in those kimono shops were all made on an assembly line, so she asked me to go to her house to choose.

Then when I entered the door, an old Japanese lady in kimono knelt on the ground to help us change our shoes and called us "お嬢様". I asked the professor curiously, "Isn't she Chinese? Why does she look so much like the daughter of a Japanese chaebol?" Later I learned that it turned out that Lawyer Wen had worked in Japan for a period of time before and then hired the housekeeper.

Si Yao looked at Wen Song's kimono and said, "It's really beautiful, Professor. You look so beautiful in kimono. I like it too."

Wen Song smiled and turned to her and said, "If you like it, are you free tomorrow? I can ask a familiar clerk to bring the fabric and pattern to your house for you to choose, and then make it for you."

"No need, it's too much trouble." Si Yao shook his head and said, "I can just go buy it directly, or borrow yours."

On the way to Kifune Shrine, it was dusk and the setting sun shone on the suburban road, casting a golden glow among the rice fields.

Suddenly, a bell rang, and the red light flashed at the tram intersection. As the railings rose, a tram sped past. The wind blew down the cherry blossoms on the side, and a few petals fell on the front windshield, leaving cherry blossom-shaped spots under the setting sun.

"So beautiful..." Si Yao couldn't help but exclaim, "It's exactly the same as in 5 Centimeters per Second."

"Yes." Wen Song also smiled faintly, "The one that just drove past is the Eizan Tram. When I was in middle school, I would come to Japan during the holidays. At that time, there were not so many tourists in Kyoto. In the summer, I liked to take the Eizan Tram in the evening, from Demachiyanagi to Kibuneguchi, and go to Kibune Shrine to eat Kawayada cuisine. Or I would do nothing but ride from the beginning to the end, and then go back and forth once, and then go home."

Si Yao sighed and said to Wen Song, "Professor, there will never be such a good time again... I took it once before, and it was so crowded that I couldn't even get in, especially when it was close to Guichuankou in the mountains, a bunch of tourists stood up to take pictures, it was really outrageous."

"Yeah." Wen Song sighed, "I don't understand why they have to stand up. Obviously, if they sit down, everyone can see the scenery."

"I was angry at that time and yelled, 'Sumi-ma-sen, could you please sit down?'" Si Yao also laughed, "By the way, professor, what exactly is the Kifune Shrine praying for? I'm not good at Japanese and I don't quite understand it."

Wen Song sighed speechlessly, shook his head and said, "It's for finding love. My husband and I went there when we were young. We walked for a long time in our bathrobes and our legs were broken. But when we got there, we saw that it was for finding love, and we ran away in fear."

"Your husband?" Si Yao looked at Cheng Che in confusion.

Cheng Che smiled and said, "It's Song Song's good friend, Sister Yunjia in Fukuoka. By the way, the Kibune Shrine is very effective in praying for marriage."

"How do you know it's effective?" Wen Song ate a plum and fed another to Cheng Che. "Have you been there?"

"Of course." Cheng Che glanced at Wen Song and said while driving, "Do you remember that time we came to Kyoto before we got married, you took me to the Kibune Shrine for dinner, and I asked for your permission to marry me. The next day, you proposed to me."

"What?!" Si Yao was so shocked that her voice became louder. "It was the professor who proposed to me?"

Cheng Che smiled, looking at the red sun that was about to sink into the mountains not far away, and the lush shade of trees on both sides, his smile grew deeper and deeper, "It was Song Song who proposed, but I was the one who proposed. How could I dare to propose to her without Song Song's permission?"
