Chapter 170: Chapter 167 Signature Document 2
"Yannan..." She suddenly stopped and reached out to tug his hand.
Li Yanan finally stopped and turned to look at her.
"I don’t believe in gods or Buddha, but..."
Lin Zhenxin’s clear eyes looked straight at him, speaking earnestly and resolutely.
"I believe in you."
The dark and deep eyes of Li Yanan met hers, and his restless heart gradually calmed down.
"Fate begins and ends, but it’s never something one person or a single stick can decide!"
Lin Zhenxin knew that although he didn’t speak, he was listening.
"If one day, we truly reach a dead end, I won’t go anywhere. I’ll wait for you to hold my hand, regardless of life or death, I know...you will be with me. Just like... I want to be with you!"
Her eyes were filled with longing, hoping that Li Yanan wouldn’t be upset by others’ words.
Li Yanan held her hand, and his expression finally looked much better.
"Then let’s make a promise, if one day I accidentally lose you, or we accidentally get separated, promise me to wait patiently for me. No matter how long or how far, I will find you. You can only be mine!" Li Yanan spoke with almost possessive determination.
Lin Zhenxin chuckled softly and nodded seriously.
She promised him.
No matter how long, no matter how far, she would wait for him to find her.
She...would only be his!
After saying this, it was obvious their moods improved a lot.
"Take me around, I’m hungry too."
Lin Zhenxin leaned closer to Li Yanan, holding onto his solid right arm, her eyes bright.
Li Yanan looked at her, his arm unconsciously pressed against her chest, feeling like an electric current surged through him.
After a brief delay, it was already past lunchtime, the time when daylight was the strongest.
Lin Zhenxin stood outside for just a moment, and her small face was already flushed from the sun.
"Hui’an is most beautiful at night, every household lights up lanterns."
Li Yanan stretched out his palm, shading Lin Zhenxin’s head, blocking the scorching sunlight.
His palm was large enough to cast a shadow to cover her entire face.
Looking up at him, Lin Zhenxin felt an indescribable flutter in her heart.
The more time she spent with him, the stronger this feeling became.
"Shall we stay here tonight?" Lin Zhenxin suggested.
"As long as you’re happy," Li Yanan didn’t mind.
Lin Zhenxin smiled, turned, and walked ahead, her skirt swirling like a blooming flower.
"Come." She stood in the bright sunlight, smiling radiantly, reaching out her hand to him.
Almost instinctively, Li Yanan took her hand.
And together, they immersed themselves in the sunshine.
They went to the White Rose Restaurant.
This restaurant was mentioned in many travel guides about Hui’an, especially its famous fried wontons.
However...
After eating one, Lin Zhenxin felt it was just okay and pushed the rest in front of Li Yanan.
Li Yanan silently finished what she left.
Perhaps it was his distinguished aura that drew frequent glances from the nearby tourists.
Lin Zhenxin seemed not to notice, head down, eating the shrimp stir-fried noodles Li Yanan ordered.
"It looks like it’s going to rain outside." At some point, the sky outside had turned gloomy.
As soon as the words were spoken, raindrops began to patter down.
"..." Neither of them had brought an umbrella, and Lin Zhenxin suddenly felt a bit like a jinx.
Li Yanan still didn’t speak, glancing at the sky, seemingly accustomed to Hui’an’s unpredictable weather.
"You eat slowly, I’ll go buy something."
After saying this, Li Yanan stood up and walked out, disappearing into the rainy mist before Lin Zhenxin could say anything.
After he left, Lin Zhenxin lost interest in the stir-fried noodles in front of her.
She took a couple of bites before putting down her chopsticks.
On such a rainy day, some images flashed across her mind.
But too quickly, she couldn’t capture them.
Soon, Li Yanan returned, with an umbrella in hand, but his whole body was soaked.
"You fool! Who told you to go out and buy it? Even if you were buying an umbrella, you should have used it on the way back!"
Lin Zhenxin looked at his face wet from the rain, even his black hair was tousled, adding to the charm of a mature man.
"I forgot." Li Yanan curled his lips, knowing she was worried about him.
"Here, you hold it. I always forget things, afraid of losing it."
Lin Zhenxin thought for a moment and still pushed the umbrella to him.
"Hmm?"
"Did I ever tell you, when I was at school, I’d lose things every now and then?"
Holding chopsticks, Lin Zhenxin looked playful and cute.
"I clearly remembered to bring it, but when I needed it, I couldn’t find it."
Li Yanan didn’t say anything, just listened with a faint smile.
"At that time, Lemon even said maybe I had light karma, attracting ghosts..."
Lin Zhenxin laughed to herself, then fell silent again, feeling a bit nostalgic for Lemon.
Wondering how Lemon and her big bear were doing now.
"We’ll bring back a lot of gifts for Yao Lemon when we return," Li Yanan said softly, seeing through her thoughts.
Lin Zhenxin nodded.
"I’m full, you finish it, I don’t want to waste it."
Lin Zhenxin pushed the remaining shrimp noodles towards him, suddenly realizing another benefit of having a husband.
Someone to help finish the leftovers...
Li Yanan went to settle the bill, while Lin Zhenxin stood under the eaves.
Raindrops streamed down the trapezoidal eaves, forming a trickling line of rain.
She extended her hand, letting the raindrops fall into her palm.
Seeing him walk over, her smile grew sweeter.
"The most beautiful thing is not the rainy day, but the eaves where we sheltered from the rain together."
Li Yanan didn’t speak, pulling her hand back and carefully wiping the rainwater from her palm.
"Let’s go." Li Yanan opened the umbrella, a large one, enough to cover them both.
Lin Zhenxin clung to his hand, watching out for puddles underfoot, feeling a bit flustered for a moment.
"Should I carry you?" Li Yanan raised an eyebrow.
Thinking he was joking, Lin Zhenxin had just said okay, when in the next second, she was picked up with one arm...
Frightening her to quickly cling to his neck, afraid of falling!
This move attracted quite a bit of attention from those around.
Lin Zhenxin quickly buried her face near his ear, her face burning.
"Put me down, I was joking." Lin Zhenxin whispered.
"I know." Li Yanan responded, unfazed by others’ gazes, holding back laughter.
"You know and won’t let me down!" Lin Zhenxin was suspended in the air, especially since his other hand was holding the umbrella.
"I’m happy."
"..." No matter how thick-skinned, Lin Zhenxin couldn’t beat him.
"Uh, put me down." After a while, Lin Zhenxin softened her tone, murmuring softly.
"Then beg me..." Li Yanan stopped and looked up at her.
"Please, I beg you, put me down..." Lin Zhenxin almost clasped her hands to show her sincerity.
"Oh." Li Yanan merely responded with a word, then continued walking.
"..." Was he teasing her?
Realizing this, Lin Zhenxin got angry and bit his earlobe!
"..." Li Yanan felt something soft and warm near his sensitive ear, nearly dropping her the next second!
"Where did you learn that from?" Li Yanan was amused by her.
But this time, he obediently put her down.
"Korean drama..."
"Don’t watch that nonsense again."
With quiet irritation, Lin Zhenxin rolled her eyes inwardly. If it weren’t for his stubbornness earlier, she wouldn’t have resorted to that move!
"It’s getting dark."
Suddenly, Li Yanan spoke.
Lin Zhenxin followed his gaze, indeed, just as he said, many lanterns had lit up on both sides of the street.
Raindrops falling, lanterns glowing, a beautiful sight...
Li Yanan was the first to notice something amiss.
Discreetly glancing behind, he tried to keep any concern from showing to Lin Zhenxin.
Passing several stores with mirrors, he coldly looked back through the mirror.
Until he confirmed there were a few figures trailing behind them...
——You have lived a life of loneliness, full of malevolent aura. Looking at your face, within a day, misfortune might strike.
The monk’s words echoed in his ears, bringing a moment of distraction to Li Yanan’s eyes.
"Zhenxin..." He suddenly spoke.
"Hmm?" Lin Zhenxin turned to look at him, still holding a bright red lantern, haggling with the shopkeeper.
"I’ll drop you at the inn, I have to go somewhere first."
"Where are you going?" Lin Zhenxin was stunned by his words, putting down the lantern and walking over to him.
Li Yanan didn’t answer, just reached out to smooth her dress.
"It’s nothing, just going to the market to buy something, I’ll be back soon."
"Are you sure?" Lin Zhenxin’s clear eyes looked steadily at him, unclouded and pure.
Lying was easy, just a matter of moving lips, but looking into those eyes...
Li Yanan felt a sharp ache in his heart.
"Yes, I’m sure." He reached out to stroke her long, soft hair.
"Then come back quickly."
For some reason, Lin Zhenxin felt a bit uneasy.
"Okay." Li Yanan said, buying the lantern she had just looked at, handing it to her.
The two slowly walked towards the inn...
The inn was a standard Vietnamese-style room. Lin Zhenxin leaned by the window, watching Li Yanan’s figure merge into the rain.
Touching her chest, she couldn’t tell why her heart felt so heavy and uncomfortable.
Like something was blocking it.
Perhaps the room was too quiet, Lin Zhenxin instinctively turned on the TV.
All were local Vietnamese channels; she couldn’t understand the language, the more she listened, the more irritable she became, coupled with the sound of the rain outside...
Lin Zhenxin had a persistent feeling that something was wrong.
But what exactly was wrong, she couldn’t pinpoint.
In her irritation, she switched off the TV with a snap, standing by the window, her gaze fixed on the direction Li Yanan had left...
Li Yanan walked quietly on the road without an umbrella.
