After saying that, he threw away his umbrella and ran to the beach to pick up shells. Soon, a mountain of shells had piled up on the beach.
Fu Yueli sat down on the ground, watching Shi Mingyue running around on the beach, and suddenly felt a sense of peace in his heart. This was a scene he had imagined many times in his mind, strolling along the beach with her, carefree.
That day, the two not only went to the beach, but also went to a restaurant on the street to eat fresh seafood, including fish and shrimp.
Shi Mingyue had only eaten freshwater fish in Beijing, and this was her first time eating sea fish. The taste was extremely delicious, and the river shrimps she had eaten were not as big as the shrimps caught from the sea. The blanched shrimps with the sauce alone were so mouth-watering that the aftertaste was endless. She felt that this day was extremely happy.
Unexpectedly, when she woke up the next day, she felt terrible. She had been picking up shells and playing in the water at the beach under the scorching sun. Her face and neck were severely sunburned. Not only were they red but they were also very painful. There were abnormal sunburn red spots on her originally fair skin.
Fu Yueli anxiously called a doctor, who only told her to apply a wet towel to her face, stop eating irritating foods such as fish and shrimp, and wait for the sunburned skin on her face to peel off.
Shi Mingyue was fine, as she had been sunburned in her previous life. But Fu Yueli began to blame himself again, wondering why he had taken her to the beach in such hot weather.
Lu Shulin, Old Master Lu, Old Madam Lu, and Lu Lingjing all came to visit Shi Mingyue, reassuring her that she would be well again soon. Shi Mingyue didn't think anything of it; the sunburn wasn't disfiguring. Seeing Fu Yueli's worried look, she stopped him and said, "Don't blame yourself. I'm really fine. It's just a sunburn. It will be fine in a few days. I was very happy yesterday. Thank you."
When Fu Yueli heard her say thank you, his mood suddenly fluctuated. Why was she so polite to him? He had said many times that they were husband and wife and there was no need to say thank you.
He said seriously, "I took you to the beach and made you happy. This is my responsibility as a husband. This is the last time. Don't say thank you to me again."
Shi Mingyue forgot again. She still said thank you out of habit, which made Fu Yueli unhappy again. She lowered her head sadly and said, "I know."
He didn't mean to criticize her, so why did he speak to her in such a serious tone? Fu Yueli immediately added with a smile: "If you say thank you again, I will accept the thank-you gift."
