Chapter 681 I bought it for this momen (2/2)

However, Yue Ling had already helped herself out of the car.

Due to the setting sun, the wind was starting to pick up and it brought in a cold breeze. She held her arms and gently stroke each arm with her palm for warmth.

”Here, wear this.”

Lu Tian opens the item in his hands and places it over her shoulders to keep her away from the cold.

It was tan-colored blanket wrap similar to a shawl but bigger and the material was thicker for cold weather.

Seeing the dressed being covered, Lu Tian was slightly disappointed that his view was blocked. However, he quickly cast this thought aside as his wife feeling warmth is more important.

He reaches to hold her hand and guides her to the front of the car. The trees that stood their ground separated into a path and Lu Tian takes the lead.

Yue Ling stares at his back figure and she couldn't help but frown. Judging from where he is going, he must have been here before.

The path they were walking on soon changes to a set of stairs leading down.

Yue Ling could not see in front of her, so she was starting to grow impatient. Her temperament was usually long, but she felt she has played along with him and everyone else for long enough.

”Tian, where is—”

Her words had yet to finish when Lu Tian takes three steps down the stairs. Her eyes widen and she inhales a mouthful of air.

From the short distance that they had come from, what greeted her at this moment was not trees but a massive lake.

The rich hues of orange, red, and purple from the setting sky blended over the lake as it cast a magical reflection in the water. Surrounding the lake were the many trees she had seen before. Each one stood unfaltering like a soldier protecting its homeland.

”Oh my goodness…”

She gasps a whisper and Lu Tian smiles as he turns around to look at her. He held onto her hand and carefully led her down the stairs until they reached a wooden deck.

”Come, I have a surprise for you.”

Like a person who had been hypnotized, Yue Ling followed his every step. Even if she wanted to, she couldn't take her eyes off of the scenery in front of her. It was so magical like she had stepped into another world.

Once they were at the edge of the deck, she finally snaps back to her senses. She looks up at Lu Tian and her expression held a look of surprise mixed with confusion.

”What are we doing here? Can we even be here?”

She raises one hand and points back in the direction they had come from.

”I thought I saw a sign that said Private Property. Won't we get in trouble if the owners find us trespassing?”

Her words fell and she felt like she was having Deja-vu. Why does this feeling make her think back to when Lu Tian took her to see their house?

Lu Tian doesn't answer her right away but carefully takes a step down from the deck. His feet touched the bottom of a wooden paddle boat and he stretches his hand out to her.

”This is our lake. I bought it for this moment.”
