Chapter 210 Love Lock
Back in the car, Xiao Xuanjin took a blanket and gave it to her.
Su Mi put on the hoodie. The temperature in the car was very high. Although she was wet all over, she felt extremely light-hearted at the moment, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.
"Honey, thank you for helping me fulfill this wish."
The people she brought were also given to her by Xiao Xuanjin, and he also informed her of their actions in advance.
Knowing that she wanted to help Gu Mucheng, Xiao Xuanjin agreed even though he disliked Gu Mucheng very much for her.
Fortunately, everything is looking up now.
She has done what she should do, and the rest depends on Gu Muqing himself.
Xiao Xuanjin started the car and replied, "Just be happy. Such a good opportunity to make a wish is to help him."
Su Mi heard the sour taste in his words, "Then I'll give you the next wish, okay?"
"No need for that. I'm not that stingy. You can do whatever you want. Don't consider me. Just treat me like a Christmas tree."
Su Mi laughed, "Then... my next wish is to go to Shengguo."
…
They stayed in Jiangcheng for another two days and then went to Shengguo.
Coming back to the place where they held their wedding, I still felt a little emotional.
At that time, they had not yet confessed their feelings to each other and were only trying to figure out each other's thoughts, so they missed a lot of time.
Su Mi brought Xiao Xuanjin to the place called "Love Lock Bridge" again. She still remembered the legend she had heard that if two like-minded people bought a lock and tied it to this bridge, they could stay together until old age.
She felt quite regretful that she didn't tie it up that time, so she wanted Xiao Xuanjin to accompany her again and put on the lock.
Regardless of whether the rumor is true or not, she wants to believe it for once.
After the lock was hung, the two stood on the bridge, facing the gorgeous crimson sunset, stopped and enjoyed the quiet moment.
Su Mi held his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder. "I've always wanted to ask you, did you bring me here to get locked up?"
Xiao Xuanjin satisfied her curiosity, "What else? Cool wind?"
Su Mi chuckled. It turned out that she was just saying one thing and doing another. However, he had tried to interrogate her but to no avail. Later, he got angry with himself and ended up accomplishing nothing.
"I'll tell you a secret. When the old lady asked me that, I really wanted to buy it."
"Oh? So you actually wanted to die at that time? You wanted to be with me, but you didn't say it clearly." There was obvious sarcasm in his words.
"I wouldn't dare to do that. Who knows if you still hate me? If I tell you, you'll make me laugh to death."
Xiao Xuanjin raised his hand and hooked her nose, "You are so capable, it's so obvious to me."
"Then you're no longer obvious."
"Okay, blame me. I should have been more direct..."
After saying this, he turned her to face him, lowered his head, and kissed her.
This was a foreign country, and everyone was very enthusiastic and direct in expressing their feelings. Su Mi raised his arms and hung them around his shoulders in response.
When the kiss ended, Su Mi leaned in his arms, panting, and suddenly her stomach growled.
Xiao Xuanjin obviously heard it and touched her head. "What do you want to eat?"
Su Mi stuck his head out and saw a vendor selling candied peanuts not far away.
She pointed, "I want to eat that."
"Okay, I'll go buy it and wait."
After saying that, Xiao Xuanjin strode over and stood in front of the stall. He was wearing a suit with a black coat, with a slender figure, noble looks, and outstanding demeanor. Many foreign girls passing by looked at him.
Just as Su Mi was about to go over, the cell phone in his pocket rang.
She took it out and saw that the screen showed it was Dr. Daniel.
Come to think of it, she should be recovered from her illness now. I guess Daniel would also like to ask about her condition.
Pick up the phone, "Hello, Dr. Daniel."
"Ms. Liam, how are you doing lately?"
Su Mi looked at the river under the bridge and said, "I haven't had many dreams. I think I should be fine now."
"So your heart has been untied."
“I guess so.”
If Xiao Xuanjin's attitude hadn't changed, she probably wouldn't have recovered so quickly.
"Ms. Liam, congratulations on your recovery."
"Dr. Daniel, this is all thanks to you. I haven't thanked you yet."
"You're welcome. Thank you, sir."
"My husband?" Su Mi turned around and looked at Xiao Xuanjin who had bought the candied peanuts and was about to come over.
"Yes, after he knew about your condition, he actively helped you with your treatment. He came to see me a while ago."
Su Mi's heart tightened after hearing this. Did Xiao Xuanjin know about this? When did it happen?
It seems that he went to Shengguo some time ago, but he said he was on a business trip at that time.
Emotions surged, and some things that had puzzled her were finally explained. Her throat was choked, and her voice was a little hoarse, "When did he know?"
"Around New Year's Day."
Su Mi held the phone with her hand stiffly raised, looked at the man who had walked up to her, and whispered, "Okay, I understand, thank you."
Then he hung up the phone.
Xiao Xuanjin held up the roasted peanuts in front of her and said, "Eat it quickly, it's hot."
Su Mi lowered her head with red eyes and took it, tears falling on the outer paper bag.
She turned her back to him, afraid that he would see her.
I grabbed a peanut and put it in my mouth. It was a very sweet candied peanut, but as I chewed it, it became a little bitter.
Xiao Xuanjin hugged her from behind, "What's wrong? Are you so moved by buying peanuts?"
It would have been better if he didn't say anything. As soon as he started talking, the sour emotions in Su Mi's heart seemed to find a breakthrough and burst out of his eyes.
Her voice was trembling. "Because it's so delicious."
Xiao Xuanjin was not so easy to fool, but if she didn't want to say it, he wouldn't force it, "Really? Then let me try it."
Then he took a piece from her bag and put it in his mouth, "So sweet."
"Yeah, it's sweet."
Su Mi looked at the lock tied with a red rope on the bridge. The red ropes were like silk threads of love, swaying gently in the breeze.
It turned out that he forgave her because he knew she was sick. No wonder she couldn't understand why he was suddenly willing to let go of the past.
She wasn't sure whether he felt more pity or sympathy for her at that time.
But how could she have deserved this? When she thought about him secretly treating her illness, a victim treating her abuser, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
He was so innocent that she played tricks on him emotionally back then, but in the end he actually repaid evil with kindness.
Xiao Xuanjin... I don't know how to describe him, he is just a big fool...
Su Mi wiped away her tears and turned to look at him, "I promised to give you a birthday present."
"Are you ready?"
"Um."
She took it out of her pocket and put it in his hand.
Xiao Xuanjin opened it and saw a small brocade bag with auspicious clouds outlined in golden thread and four blessing words "peace and joy" on it.
"What is this?"
"Amulet. I lost the previous one. I'll give you another one."
Xiao Xuanjin touched it lightly with his fingertips, "So, this is why you are so mysterious."
"Well, it won't be a surprise if you know."
This time when Su Mi returned to Jiangcheng, he also wanted to ask for another one to give to him.
The most important thing was that on the day she went there, she saw the person who interpreted the fortune last time again.
She went to ask for another hexagram, and this time the hexagram was particularly clear. It read:
——In a moment the mist dissipated and the brilliant light appeared, and the perfect marriage was reflected in the blue lake.
