Chapter 1106: Chapter 1106: Romance Can Actually Be Quite Simple
After applying the medicine, the two of them finally emerged from the tent.
“Jian, you and Mr. Chu are so clingy! Every time you’re alone, you never want to e out!” Xia Mengjiao plained.
“Yeah! Uncle and I are just that clingy, are you jealous?”
“I feel like my heart has been critted!” Xia Mengjiao clutched her chest in a wounded fashion.
“Wife, you’re hurting my feelings saying that!” Li Jing moved close to Xia Mengjiao and said.
“Go away~ You’re everywhere!”
...
The daily life between Xia Mengjiao and Li Jing was just such simple romance amid the mundane.
“We’re playing Werewolf, do you want to join in?”
“Sure!” Jian Dan, pulling Chu Liyuan, took their seats as well.
Jian Dan never expected that in her first game, she would be the werewolf.
As a werewolf, she had hidden herself well from the start, and by the end, only she, Uncle, Shang Simiao, and Huo Siyu were left, two werewolves and two villagers. As long as one more villager died, the werewolves would win. To their surprise, the vote during daylight resulted in a tie.
That oute meant the werewolves were certain to win in the end.
In the second game, Jian Dan finally got a good role, but oddly, the oute was almost identical to the first game; the last vote was a tie, but in the end, the villagers won.
This left Jian Dan baffled, “How can this be? Why did the villagers win this time when it was just like the first game?”
“The werewolves won the last game because you were a werewolf! And the villagers won this game because you’re a villager.” Qiu Zimo, who had not been playing and was watching by the side, spoke slowly.
With Qiu Zimo’s skill level, how could he not see that Chu Liyuan had intentionally let Jian Dan win?
“What?”
“Still don’t get it? It was Chu Liyuan!” Sizhe, who had been Chuli’s teammate in both games, spoke with a sense of resignation.
Both times were guaranteed wins, yet they lost in the end.
There was no helping it—when it came to his wife, teammates were there to be betrayed!
“Uncle?”
Although playing the game this way was a bit boring, Jian Dan felt sweetly delighted when she realized what had happened.
“Let’s stop playing, or you’ll never win.
Uncle, let’s take a walk by the sea!” Jian Dan stood up, took Chu Liyuan’s hand, and headed towards the beach…
Evening was approaching, and where the sea met the sky, there was just a sliver of light left.
Chu Liyuan’s large hand tightly enveloped Jian Dan’s small one, she could feel the warmth from Uncle’s palm, filling her heart with warmth.
“Uncle, look~” With the remaining light, Jian Dan spotted a stranded little starfish on the beach, “Uncle, do you think it’s still alive?”
“If its body is still hard, then it should be alive!”
“Then let’s take it back to the sea!”
“Doing that will get your shoes wet, e here!” Chu Liyuan squatted in front of Jian Dan.
“But then your shoes will get wet as well!”
“It’s fine.” Saying this, he had already lifted Jian Dan onto his back.
Slowly moving forward, the sea water had begun lapping against Chu Liyuan’s shoes, “Uncle, don’t go any further in, this should be fine!”
Chu Liyuan gently bent down, allowing Jian Dan to release the starfish back into the sea…
(Q: Doesn’t this defy logic? Couldn’t have she just thrown it back into the sea? Why go through all this trouble?
A: Throwing it directly into the sea wouldn’t be romantic at all! Isn’t the sweetness what we crave in a romance story?)
