43 Chapter 43 (2/2)

During the meal, Chen Xu was dumbstruck as he watched the two people in front of him who constantly ate from the spicy soup hot pot. As he watched them cook the lamb and various types of mushrooms and vegetables in the spicy soup, Chen Xu couldn't help but drink some Sprite before he felt his taste buds become normal again.

Chen Xu suspected that perhaps the duo could only be together because their taste buds were so similar.

After the meal, Su Le drank a small bowl of white fungus soup that was given for free by the restaurant. Then, she grabbed a slice of watermelon to nibble on. This made Chen Xu, who was already full, feel amazed by her appetite.

”Are you full now?” Wei Chu took a tissue and passed it to Su Le before glancing outside. It was still raining, ”I don't even know if it will stop raining by tomorrow.”

After wiping her mouth, Su Le took a look at the weather outside, ”It will probably stop.”

”It would be a pity if the rain doesn't stop,” Wei Chu sighed as he felt somewhat regretful.

”If it doesn't, then it would be a waste of a trip,” Su Le said as she touched her full stomach. It was rare that she could eat such an authentic hot pot. She was content.

”I heard that the temple at the top of the mountain is accurate in its divination, especially when its asked about love.” Wei Chu still had a regretful expression on his face.

The corners of Su Le's eyes twitched a little. She reached out and poked Wei Chu's forehead. ”My great CEO Wei, we came to visit a Buddha temple, not a matchmaking temple.”

”Yes, I am certainly yours,” Wei Chu reached out to take a hold of Su Le's hand while he smiled helplessly.

Su Le rolled her eyes. People who called Wei Chu the 'great God Wei' were surely blind. ”Is there a limit to your shamelessness?”

Wei Chu smiled widely, revealing his white teeth. ”In front of my wife, can things like 'limit' be said?”

The poor Chen Xu, who was still with them, sat silently as he covered his eyes. How his Lao Da was acting now was just too shameless.

When the group left the restaurant, the sky had already darkened. Su Le stared ahead at the streetlights, which were slightly blurred by the rain. For no reason, her mood started to worsen.

A gentle hand clasped onto hers. Su Le looked at the person beside her. His other hand that was holding a flower print umbrella edged closer to her to shelter her head from the rain. That little bit of unhappiness that she had felt for no reason now evaporated like smoke.

As the two walked ahead, everyone behind them saw the usually prideful man protecting his girlfriend. Even when a vehicle drove over a muddy puddle, not a single drop of the muddy water would splash onto the woman next to him.

When Jiang Ting saw this scene, she laughed secretly. She suddenly remembered a line from Qi Jiu's book, 'It's nothing praiseworthy when a man holds an umbrella for a woman in the rain. What's important is whether that man is willing to protect the woman from all the muddy water, disasters, and cold in the journey.'

Su Le walked very slowly. Wei Chu also slowed down to match her pace. In that moment, there was a sense of peace that was indescribable.

”I think…” Su Le suddenly spoke but she was hesitant.

”What's wrong?” Wei Chu was worried as he saw the tentative expression on Su Le's face.

”Eating too much is truly not good,” Su Le said as she gracelessly rubbed her stomach.

”…” Wei Chu was speechless.
