“My dear, will you treat me well forever?”
“Am I good to you? I don’t think so. You’re easy to please.”
Lying on her side in the bed, Huo Yunchen looking at her, gently stroking her delicate nose, with his eyes full of love.
“Well, I’m very satisfied now. I don’t expect you to bring fortune or glory to me but only ask you to be safe, healthy, and then our family could be together happily, that’s enough.”
She shook his hand and looked at him with a lingering hope in her eyes.
“Fool, I promise you to be good to you forever, only to you.”
“And our children.”
“Okay, I will treat your baby well, too. Close your eyes and sleep.”
Huo Yunchen checked the time, and it was eleven o’clock. He frowned in a sulk, watching her closing her eyes to sleep.
She came into his arms, clasped his arms tightly with her hands, and closed her eyes obediently .
In fact, she didn’t want to sleep, but have a talk with him, watching him all night since she only stayed with him by his side at night.
But as soon as her eyes were closed, she felt sleepy so she fell asleep immediately.
After her sound asleep, Huo Yunchen got up from the bed again.
Since they were going to Baiyun Temple tomorrow to pay their vows, he entered the study room to arrange his work for tomorrow.
He sat behind his desk, working at his desk late till the night. Liu Kai suddenly came and knocked on the door, “Sir, haven’t you slept?”
“No, come in.” Liu Kai pushed the door open to come in with his solemn expression. “What’s the matter?”
Huo Yunchen raised his eyes and glanced at him, asking with a deep tone.
“Yes, Shen Yihan is dead.”
Huo Yunchen stopped making remarks immediately, and his eyes shimmered like ice.
“Gu Beian did it?”
“His body was fished out from the stinking ditch in the south of the city. It is said that it has been soaked in the water for many days. The news from the police is that he died of drowning after drinking. The police are still investigating whether he fell into the water or someone else pushed him into the water.” Liu Kai said a little emotionally.
“Gu Beian is skillful enough to bring the whole thing off without a hitch. Did you get the watch I asked you to find?”
“There is no such watch in the evidence provided by police. I have sent someone to salvage in the river but find nothing.” Liu Kai said helplessly. “Then go find Bai Feifei, don’t let her appear in the presence of my wife again and talk nonsense. In any case, we must find the one who took the videotape out. People who participated in the incident have been rubbed out by grandfather one after another. Now it seems that there are a few who slipped through the net.”
Huo Yunchen snorted with a gloomy expression, and lowered his head to write harder.
“Yes, I see, is madam in need of more protection?” “Arrange more to protect her secretly, don’t let her find out.” “Okay, I will arrange it tomorrow.”
After Liu Kai left, Huo Yunchen lit another cigarette and smoked. His handsome face seemed more cold and determined in the cloud of smoke …
…
Driving all the way to Baiyun Mountain, they didn’t feel tired at all.
However, the stair to the main peak tower temple was 199 steps. It was said that everyone who wanted to go up to the tower must pass through this pious stair in order to express the piety of the donor.
Bai Qingqing was pregnant with twins for almost three months, feeling a little dizzy at a glance of the long one hundred and ninety-nine stair.
But since they had come there, she refused to give up easily.
Without frowning, she took Huo Yunchen’s hand and walked up, “Dear, let’s go.”
Huo Yunchen looked at it without a word, lowering his body.
“What are you doing?” “To carry my wife, maybe you are not tired but our baby will be tired.”
Bai Qingqing blushed, feeling a little embarrassed in front of Liu Kai and Liu Yun.
“No, you have to carry three people on your back, and you will be tired.”
“Well, let Liu Kai–”
“No, I do not want.”
Huo Yunchen threatened her in this way every time so as to make her get on his back obediently.
How could she let Liu Kai carry her? Liu Kai was a bodyguard, not a servant.
Seeing her on his back obediently, Huo Yunchen curled up his lips and smiled.
Liu Kai worried about himself. How come he dare to carry Madam?
Taking one more look at her was likely to make the master blind him.
He glanced at Liu Yun with relief. Fortunately, she had always kept the iceberg-like face that had not melted away all over the years.
“Wife, I heard that couples who walked through these 199 steps together can stay together for a lifetime.”
“Really?” “Yes!” “Then you quickly let me down, I gonna walk with you.”
Huo Yunchen started to gasp when they walked halfway.
Bai Qingqing couldn’t bear that, so she proposed to walk by herself, but he refused.
“Don’t worry, I haven’t finished my words. If a man goes up with a woman on his back, this couple will never be separated forever. I want to be with you for more than a lifetime. I want to stay with you forever. Sure?”
Huo Yunchen spoke lightly while walking. Although his tone was shallow, the affection was not diminished.
This man now could speak all the nice love words skillfully.
She was caught off guard and wanted to cry again. “Sure, of course. I will haunt you forever, even if you forget me, it doesn’t matter. I will definitely stay by your side to make you fall in love with me.”
She leaned her head on his shoulder and spoke softly with a slight choking in her tone. “Keep your words. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to break your words.” “I will never go back, never.”
Bai Qingqing bit on his ear, which gave Huo Yunchen an electric shock.
This woman was really attractive everywhere.
When entering the Buddhist hall, the old abbot personally came to receive them.
Huo Yunchen donated a lot to this Baiyun Temple, praying and making wishes by himself.
Bai Qingqing knelt down in front of the Buddha with piety, clasped her hands together and closed eyes, meditating on the wish in her heart and tapping three times.
Huo Yunchen didn’t believe this, but Bai Qingqing believed. Hence, he also knelt and made a wish together.
The two of them also received the wishing red ribbon from the abbot and tied them to the thousand-year-old tree in the courtyard together.
The thousand-year-old tree was covered with red ribbons promised by faithful men and women. When the wind blew, they fluttered and jumped like elves.
Huo Yunchen clasped Bai Qingqing’s hand tightly and tied the red ribbon together, their affection lingering in the breeze under the sun. “What wish did you make?”
“I can’t say, it won’t work if I say.”
“Do you want to know what I wished for?”
“Uh?”
“My wish is to fulfill all your wishes.”
Huo Yunchen’s deep eyes gleamed brightly, as bright as the sea of stars, and as deep as the sea.
The old abbot looked at them from a distance with a solemn expression, sighed and turned back into the temple.
Liu Kai didn’t understand what the old abbot meant, so he chased after him.
