Chapter 50: This round, the President gain victory!

After the kiss, Du Lei Si was unable to catch her breath and fell into the water.

The moment she fell in, using the fastest speed to a.s.sess the situation, she tried to grab onto anything and ultimately did not hesitate to grab the President’s collar, so as a result the President was also mercilessly pulled into the water.

‘Plop’, ‘plop’, ‘plop.’

If you have to ask why on earth there’s three ‘plop’ sound when only two people fell in? The reason is very simple, the boatman upon seeing his guest falling into the water, if he, himself didn’t also follow it was unjustifiable, so he quickly dive in.

In a split second, there were three dumplings floating in the calm water.

Du Lei Si finally understood the meaning of a ‘nightmare becoming reality’, however her current situation is an upgraded version!

A little chick doesn’t know how to swim, it was no exception for Du Lei Si either, in the water like a mother hen swallowing water, she was bobbing up and down constantly in the water, after numerous times the President finally dragged her back on board.

At this moment, the boatman also returned to the boat, the three of them were throughly soaked, especially Du Lei Si, who’s wet long hair covered most of her face, only revealing a pair of shock eyes, coupled with her white dress, under the tranquil moonlight it appeared Sadako have come back to life!

Seeing she’s okay, Lian Jun breathe a sigh of relief, wanting to berate her a word or two, however seeing her frighten expression, he couldn’t bear to criticise her so he finally swallowed the words he wanted to say and quietly took off his coat, covering the wet and clingy clothing on her body.

Her being this way, only he can see it.

The unexpected drowning incident, besides scaring Du Lei Si enough to choke, it also produced a series of late complications.

First, the next day after drowning, Du Lei Si gloriously caught a cold. The cold triggered a series of cough, fever, dizziness and nausea.…… In short the mother hen turned into a drenched chicken, the drenched chicken turned into a plagued chicken, the plagued chicken can only lie in bed continuously groaning.

Secondly, because she became a plague chicken, their Venice trip was completely disrupted, he originally intended to take her to the beach on the second day, now it has to change into a hospital. Others honeymoon were to sightsee the attractions, however Du Lei Si’s honeymoon was spent in the hospital, it’s also considered a major undertaking!

Finally, amongst the unfortunate there was a sheer luck, the plague left as fast as it came,  in less than two days time, she the plague chicken became the frisky little hen. After much trouble, the President took the frisky little hen to leave Venice, taking off to the next destination.

The next destination was Florence.

Love, you will always be a bright star in my head: If I unfortunately die, I will become a firefly, in this garden next to the gra.s.sroots, I’ll somberly fly, flying from dusk to the middle of the night, flying in the middle of the night to the break of dawn, only when there isn’t a cloud present in the sky. Everyday I hope to see you the unchanged star, I wish you would s.h.i.+ne for me, through the night, through the day and through the love of consonance……

—— 《A Night in Florence》by Xu Zhimo.

Within Xu Zhimo’s poetry “Fei Leng Cui” is also known as Florence, like the translation, this city of poetry is filled with color and full of cla.s.sical flavor. In the birthplace of renaissance, under the visible blue sky and white clouds every corner was filled with colorful buildings, dark green shutters with scarlet roof. Just taking a stroll was like living in a vast Museum of art. Leonardo da Vinci, Dante, Michelangelo ……Hearing these names for a thousand times, one day to suddenly have such close contact made Du Lei Si feel super weird.

The station was originally more calm than their trip to Venice, there wasn’t any drowning nor catching a cold, however that night before leaving Florence to Rome, a clique event occurred.

That night at the hotel, Lian Jun was in the bathroom taking a shower, while Du Lei Si leisurely sat on bed sifting through the photos they took in these past few days, reminiscing was very fun.

Suddenly, the camera ran out of battery, she got off from the bed to find the charger, searching her own belongings to the President’s, after a long time she still couldn’t find the charger, however she instead found a red velvet box.

Strange, why does this box look so familiar? Curiously, Du Lei Si opened the box to take a peek and was completely dumbfounded.

This, isn’t this the diamond ring that’s worth two million???

When Lian Jun finished showering and came out from the bathroom, he found Du Lei Si had a weird expression on her face, upon seeing her holding the ring, all of a sudden he finally understood what was happening.

This ring, originally Lian Jun intended to take advantage while they were on holiday to find a proper time give it to her, however he didn’t think she would uncover it herself, it appears his ears are not going to have a rest.

Sure enough, upon seeing him, Du Lei Si angrily placed the ring in front of him: “This, what is this?”

Lian Jun calmly replied: “A ring.”

What’s with this att.i.tude? Du Lei Si angrily shouted: “This is not just a ring!”

“Then what is it?”

“It’s a ring valued of two million dollars!”

“But isn’t that a ring?”

“……”

Du Lei Si become angry from embarra.s.sment: “I don’t care, give me an explanation, why is this diamond ring with you? Wasn’t it lost?” That time if wasn’t because she thought she lost the diamond ring, why would she so easily sell herself?? For the President to do so, it’s simply forcing marriage! Too hateful!

But this initiator of evil gave an indifferent expression and shrugged his shoulders: “It was lost, and I’ve found it back.”

“Then why didn’t you say so?”

“You didn’t ask.”

“You!” Du Lei Si grit her teeth in anger, however the word she wanted to say didn’t come out. This proves that the President absolutely have the ability to infuriate a person to death!

Unable to outspeak him, it best if she didn’t speak at all, Du Lei Si grit her teeth, stamp her feet and harden her heart saying: “I’m not going to pay any attention to you now!”

Thus, the events of the diamond ring suddenly escalated to a cold war, until the two of them were on the train to Rome, Du Lei Si was still in a fit of anger, not wanting to speak to him.

Since she refused to speak, Lian Jun was also not in a hurry, he put on calm appearance seeing how long she can endure this, besides once they arrive in Italy, except him, no one can communicate with her.

Surey this girl would be suffocated to death!

However this time, the President seems to underestimate the powerful force of the economic globalization, China has a population of one billion and three hundred million, it’s easy to encounter a Chinese in a foreign countries.

This, Du Lei Si stumbled upon.

“You guys are from China?”

Hearing the familiar language, Du Lei Si’s eyes who haven’t spoken for most of the day sparkled faint green like a weasel.

“You’re also Chinese?” she asked, smiling.
