Chapter 238 - Heart Beating As One Forever (2/2)

Sensing that, Shi Fengju turned and faced her. He gently held her hand and said with a smile, “Sang Wan, I only wish to grow old with you and have our hearts beat the same forever in this lifetime. Do you only have me in your heart?”

Sang Wan nodded and whispered in a low voice, “You’re my husband…”

Shi Fengju smiled. His smile was like the east wind blowing over the hillside in the early spring with the flowers blooming everywhere. “Sang Wan, come. Give it a shot!”

Shi Fengju stuffed the ribbon into Sang Wan’s hand with a smile and pulled her to stand beside the huge tree.

“I…” Sang Wan froze and was nervous without a reason. Almost as if the success or failure of their future depended on her.

“Sang Wan, quick. I believe that you can.” Shi Fengju told her in exhilaration as he raised his head and narrowed his eyes to look at the tree filled with red ribbons.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try then.” Sang Wan took two steps back. She looked up and aimed before using all her strength as she threw the ribbon up. Their gaze followed the red ribbon, and even Shi Fengju could not help but feel tensed as he held her hand tightly.

“Oh no!” Sang Wan exclaimed disappointedly as the red ribbon did not touch the top of the tree at all. Since she had a weak strength and went a little too far behind, the red ribbon only touched the leaves of the branch before starting to fall.

Although it fell very slowly, it did not touch a single leaf as it fell, almost as if it was doomed to be.

Sang Wan was secretly disappointed and glanced at Shi Fengju as she felt somewhat ashamed of herself. She really did not mean for it to happen. Maybe it was because her thoughts were impure that heaven decided for this to happen.

“Sang Wan, look!” A gust of wind suddenly blew. The red ribbon suddenly blew forward and hung onto a tree branch before swaying steadily with the wind. Shi Fengju was so happy that he quickly called Sang Wan.

Sang Wan hurriedly looked up and was delighted when she saw their red ribbon on a branch. She pulled Shi Fengju’s arm and cheered joyfully: “It hung, hung up! Fengju!”

“I knew you could do it! This is Heaven’s will, Sang Wan!” Shi Fengju lifted her up in joy and spun two rounds.

Sang Wan giggled with her hands around his neck.

At this moment, her heart was truly filled with unparalleled joy with a faint anticipation deep down. If she could spend a lifetime with him, she would not ask for anything else!

“Sang Wan!” Shi Fengju rarely saw her smile so brightly from her heart. Such an unreserved smile was even more eye-catching than the dazzling sun shining above their heads. He was used to her reserved and gentle smile, he liked this newfound smile on her face even more.

He held onto her face and lowered his head to give her a kiss.

“Young Master, Young Mistress…” Liu Ya’s voice reached before her physical self. Seeing what was in front of her, she urgently stopped after speaking and turned around in a flurry as her heart thumped heavily.

Liu Ya scowled at herself and bit her lip. It seemed she wasn’t being considerate again! Shi Fengju already had a poor opinion of her, so she really did not want to offend him again! However, she really could not be blamed for this! How would she know that her Young Master wasn’t done being sweet on usual days and did not spare even a sacred place!

Although Liu Ya turned around, it only made matters worse. Sang Wan’s face turned red and she pushed Shi Fengju away. The atmosphere was shattered and he frowned. “This damned servant, this damned servant.” Shi Fengju quietly scolded Liu Ya several times.

“Liu Ya, is there something?” Sang Wan asked.

“I came here to…”

“Is this how you should reply to your Master? Hurry up and turn around!” Seeing that she still had her back faced towards them and spoke as if minding her own business, Shi Fengju could not help but find it funny as he scolded her.

“Yes, Young Master!” Liu Ya promptly turned around and continued, “The vegetarian feast is ready. I’m here to invite Young Master and Young Mistress over!”

“I almost forgot about that. Sang Wan, are you hungry? Let’s go over now!” Shi Fengju smiled and the three of them went to the main hall of the temple together.

Great Teacher Ling Jing and Great Teacher Ling Qing were waiting at the hall entrance and were talking to each other. Shi Fengju went up to them and gave his thanks before the two monks left. A monk then brought the couple to the dining hall.

In the hall, there was a large table of roughly seventeen to eighteen dishes on ordinary pure white bowls, arranged into different styles meticulously. The chicken, duck, and fish meat dishes seemed to pass off as real meat. However, they were made from flour, tofu, starch, bean curd skins, yams, bamboo shoots, various types of mushrooms, fungus, bean sprouts, lotus seeds, chestnuts, lilies, and more.
