"Mr. Pei, I'm going out for a while."

Pei Zigui looked at Xiao Ge deeply and nodded, "Take an umbrella."

After a while, Xiao Ge came back. Although he was holding an umbrella, he was still wet, especially his trouser legs.

"I asked the villagers, and they said the road down the mountain was blocked and cars couldn't go down."

Jiang Ruoli's handsome eyebrows immediately frowned: "It's blocked?"

Xiao Ge: "It's rocks that rolled down from the mountain, and no one is moving them now."

Meteorological disasters are common in places like this.

Pei Zigui held Jiang Ruoli's hand and said calmly: "What feasible plans are there at present?"

Xiao Ge paused. He didn't expect the man to be so calm. He was indeed a man who could accomplish great things. He licked his dry lips and answered honestly:

"One is that we spend the night on the mountain and wait until the weather clears up before going down, but we don't know when it will clear up. The weather on the mountain is different from that at the foot of the mountain. Sometimes it rains for several days."

"Another option is for us to go down the mountain first, walk through the blocked road, and contact a car to pick us up when we are halfway down the mountain."

Jiang Ruoli looked at Pei Zigui and pursed her red lips: "What do you think?"

She actually didn't want to wait. Not to mention that there was no preparation for staying in the mountains, and she didn't know how long she would have to wait, so it would be better to just go down.

Pei Zigui held her slightly cold little hand and said in a steady tone: "I won't make any hypothetical plans that require waiting."

If rain like this continues for a long time, no one can guarantee whether there will be flash floods or mudslides.

Jiang Ruoli understood, they were thinking the same thing.

"Let's go then."

Xiao Qiao chased out with two umbrellas: "Sister, umbrellas!"

"Thank you, Xiaoqiao. You must learn embroidery from grandma, okay?"

"I will, sister."

Jiang Ruoli took an umbrella and shared it with Pei Zigui, leaving one for Xiao Ge.

Pei Zigui held an umbrella and hugged Jiang Ruoli in his arms. The umbrella above his head was almost completely tilted towards her to protect her from the rain.

"Pei Zigui, do you think we are a bit like a pair of desperate lovers now?"

She is optimistic and can even smile.

"Be serious and watch the road."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Ruoli stepped on empty air. It was damp here, and small mosses grew on the dirt steps in the mountains, and they became even more slippery after the rain.

Fortunately, Pei Zigui grabbed her and Jiang Ruoli didn't fall to the ground. She just twisted her foot on the steps.

"Did you twist it?" Pei Zigui's face was gloomy and full of displeasure.

Jiang Ruoli turned her ankle. It was just a little painful at that moment, but now she doesn't feel it anymore. She shook her head honestly and softened her tone:

"Don't be so fierce, I will definitely walk obediently in a while."

In a blink of an eye, Pei Zigui squatted down in front of the woman.

"Come up, don't make me say it a second time."

The words were on the tip of her tongue but she held them back. Jiang Ruoli obediently lay on the man's back, took the umbrella and held it high above her head. Her series of movements were so skillful that it made people feel distressed.

It seems like this is not the first or second time I have to recite it.

Xiao Ge: "Mr. Pei, the mountain roads are slippery, you have to be careful."

"I know my limits, just lead the way."

How could he not be careful when carrying Jiang Ruoli on his back?

The air was very humid and the weather was gloomy. I felt like I was soaked in cold water and felt uncomfortable all over.

Jiang Ruoli just prayed that they could reach the bottom of the mountain as soon as possible.

Compared to Jiang Ruoli who was shivering with cold, Pei Zigui's temperature was relatively high. She pressed her whole body against his neck and put her hands in to keep warm.

Pei Zigui said nothing, silently condoning his young wife's behavior.

In addition to the splashed water stains on his pants, there were also mud on the soles of her shoes, which were filthy. For Pei Zigui, who had severe mysophobia, it should be unbearable.

"Pei Zigui, your pants are dirty."

"Yeah, hold tight."

A pool of water appeared in front of the two people, as if the terrain was low and rain water had flowed back into it.

Jiang Ruoli wanted to ask, is there no other way? He really came to experience disaster.

Xiao Ge seemed to have guessed her thoughts. He stood on a rock in the middle of the pond and said quietly, "This is the only way to go now."

He stretched out his hand to Pei Zigui, "Mr. Pei, give Mrs. Pei to me, I will pick her up from the middle and carry her to the other side."

In this case, considering Pei Zigui's height and long legs, he should be able to reach over the stone in the middle.

Pei Zigui did not move at all, but raised his chin slightly, "You go first, I'll carry her over."

Huh? Just... wade through the water?

Jiang Ruoli was also stunned, "Pei Zigui..." In fact, she could leave.

"It's okay. Didn't you say my pants were dirty? It doesn't matter if they get a little dirtier."

Pei Zigui lifted the person up, hugged her tighter, and stepped into the water with his long legs.

Jiang Ruoli held his neck tightly, trying to keep his body still so as not to bring him any extra burden. He silently said in his heart: Pei Zigui, you are such a lunatic!

It is said that a friend in need is a friend indeed. In this situation, even if the roles were reversed, she might not be able to carry Pei Zi back home.

When they crossed the puddle, Pei Zigui was completely soaked from the knees down, his pants stuck to his legs, dripping with water, which was uncomfortable to look at. Add to that the stains, and it was even more horrible.

Ever since I met Pei Zigui, I have never seen him so miserable.

"Pei Zigui."

A woman's soft voice called out in my ear.

"Do you love me very much?"

Jiang Ruoli's question came suddenly, and the girl's uneasiness could be vaguely heard in her voice.

Love, this word seemed to have never been mentioned in their short marriage. Pei Zigui was always afraid that he was too obvious and loved too overbearingly, thinking that Jiang Ruoli would be disgusted and resist.

Unexpectedly, an accident made love fall from the sky.

No, it should be "exit early."

Pei Zigui placed his hands on both sides of Jiang Ruoli's thighs and stopped. He tilted his head slightly, and his nose touched the woman's delicate skin.

A low laugh.

Jiang Ruoli was furious, "What are you laughing at! Ah, just now, I was soaked in the rain and my brain got damaged, okay?"

If you don't love her, then don't love her. Love whoever you want! There are many people who love her, Jiang Ruoli!

Don't love her? She didn't believe it! Pei Zigui must like her very much, to death, she was not a fool!

Pei Zigui naturally didn't know about Jiang Ruoli's rich imagination. He used his free hand to turn Jiang Ruoli's little face back and kissed her, his voice deep and gentle:

"No love? Why should I do so much for a stranger I don't love? Isn't it good to make some extra money when you have nothing to do?"

"Money, money, money. All I can think about is money! Eh? What did you say?"
