Chapter 78 A Special Kind of Love
Su Jiuyue was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where did you hear the story?"
Wu Xiyuan shook his head, "I didn't remember it except the story!"
The young Su Jiuyue believed this story made sense to some extent, but on second thought, she felt it wasn't appropriate for her to talk about his wrong ideas in public, then she shifted to another topic, "The meal should be made already. We should come home now. It's quite chilly outside."
As she spoke, Su Jiuyue shrugged. Seeing this, Wu Xiyuan tried to take off his coat and put it on her.
In such icy weather, how could it be possible for her to put his coat on?
Su Jiuyue immediately grasped Wu Xiyuan's hand while he looked at her with an upset expression which seemingly showed that he blamed her for stopping him.
Su Jiuyue showed him a radiant smile, clean eyes sparkling, as if filled with the snow on the ground, "Xiyuan!" Let's run! Then we won't feel cold!"
Before he could unbuttoned his coat, Su Jiuyue held his hand to run forward.
Moon above the sky, they had fun in the snow. But all of a sudden, Su Jiuyue fell down as they were about to arrive home.
Wu Xiyuan held her subconsciously, and the two rolled into a ball in the snow.
Wu Xiyuan didn't let her go until they stopped rolling. Wu Xiyuan asked with concern, "Honey, are you okay?"
In fact, Su Jiuyue was wrapped up in layers and held by him and even the snow was thick, so she couldn't get hurt.
Su Jiuyue stood up with his help and patted the snow off his coat. She replied softly, "I'm fine. And you?"
Wu Xiyuan smiled at her and said proudly, "So am I!"
Seeing this, Su Jiuyue then bent down to pick up the wine pot on the ground. Fortunately, the thick snow shielded the wine pot from breaking down.
"That's good. Let's come home now."
Supporting each other, they two shambled cautiously into the house.
Their silhouettes were cast on the window by the dim light, looking very warm and sweet.
When seeing they were coming back, Liu Cuihua who was standing alone in front of the door walked forward.
"What takes you so long? I just wondered if you two were carried away by a bear on the way." Liu Cuihua bantered with concern.
Su Jiuyue didn't care about whether Liu Cuihua was worried about Wu Xiyuan or her. The warm feeling that couldn't be described clearly arose from her heart when she saw someone waiting for her return at the door.
Su Jiuyue laughed out loud, her eyes shining as if reflecting the stars in the sky, "Mom, bears can't be seen now. They are taking a sound sleep!"
Liu Cuihua barely saw Su Jiuyue behaving so lively. After all, Su Jiuyue normally acted as a sensible adult as she always behaved primly and tried to do all the chores.
Deep inside Liu Cuihua's heart, she felt quite distressed for her daughter-in-law.
A genial smile climbed on Liu Cuihua's face who walked towards them, handkerchief in her hand.
"Look at you two. Why are you in a mess? It looks like you two rolled back instead of walking!"
Liu Cuihua patted the snow off Su Jiuyue's body with her handkerchief before tidying up Wu Xiyuan's clothes.
Although Su Jiuyue felt a bit painful physically when Liu Cuihua patted the snow off her, she felt happy mentally with a bigger smile on her face.
Just as the saying goes, "Harsh deeds and words demonstrate one's deep love." Su Jiuyue quite liked such love!
