After Su Yun Chu finished speaking, she looked at Shen Yu Qing and Liu Wen Tao, who were soaking wet, and continued, "Brother Wen Tao, Cousin Yu Qing, your clothes are completely soaked. Why don't you go back and change?"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao and Shen Yuqing looked at Su Yunchu and nodded slightly.

Upon seeing this, Su Yunchu rowed the boat towards the pond. Once the boat was close to the pond, Liu Wentao and Shen Yuqing disembarked one after the other.

Watching the two women's departing figures, and then noticing a lotus flower on the boat, Su Yun Chu fell into deep thought. Brother Wen Tao and Cousin Yu Qing seemed so well-matched! Should she let them be together?

Meanwhile, Shen Yuqing and Liu Wentao returned to their respective rooms. After changing their clothes, they went to the lotus pond one after the other.

Su Yun Chu was seen tidying up the lotus pods she had brought back by the small boat, with several lotus roots of various sizes lying beside her.

When Su Yun saw Shen Yuqing and Liu Wentao approaching, she quickly rowed the boat slowly towards the pond. She handed over some lotus pods, saying, "Cousin Yuqing, Brother Wentao, here, these are for you!"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao and Shen Yuqing looked at Su Yunchu, nodded slightly, and accepted the lotus pod that Su Yunchu handed over.

The two women took the lotus pod, peeled open the lotus pod, took out the lotus seeds, peeled off the skin, and ate the white lotus seed flesh inside.

Upon seeing this, Su Yun looked at Liu Wentao, then at Shen Yuqing, and asked with a slight smile, "Cousin Yuqing, Brother Wentao, is it delicious?"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao and Shen Yuqing looked at Su Yunchu and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Su Yun glanced at the two of them and continued paddling towards the lotus pond further away, intending to bring back more lotus pods.

Liu Wentao and Shen Yuqing saw that Su Yunchu had rowed the small boat further away. Shen Yuqing called out loudly, "Cousin Yunchu, come back!"

Liu Wentao quietly looked in Su Yunchu's direction, silently praying for her safety.

Seeing this, Shen Yuqing looked at Liu Wentao and whispered to comfort him, "Young Master Liu, don't worry, Cousin Yun Chu will be alright!"

As she spoke, Shen Yuqing patted Liu Wentao on the shoulder. Seeing this, Liu Wentao glanced at Shen Yuqing, nodded slightly, and said softly, "Miss Shen, thank you for your kind words!"

However, little did they know that Su Yun Chu was the world surfing champion in her previous life and the world record holder, whose record had not been broken to this day.

Navigating this small boat was child's play for her; it was more like a large toy. She could make the boat move even without a suitable oar.

When the two of them looked up again, Su Yun Chu had already rowed her boat to the other side of the lotus pond, which was much larger.

Su Yun Chu waved towards Shen Yu Qing and Liu Wen Tao, and shouted loudly, "Cousin Yu Qing, Brother Wen Tao, come over quickly, there are still many here."

Because they were quite far apart, it took Shen Yuqing and Liu Wentao a while to hear what Su Yunchu was saying.

The two women looked in Su Yun Chu's direction and were instantly overwhelmed. It was far too far! Su Yun Chu was on the opposite side of the lotus pond, and there was no path in between. To get there, they would have to walk around the lotus pond.

However, the two of them still walked a long circle around the lotus pond to the other side. Because it was a bit hot, they were both suddenly out of breath.

Seeing this, Su Yunchu looked at Shen Yuqing, then at Liu Wentao, shook her head slightly, and sighed, "Hey, Cousin Yuqing, Brother Wentao, it's so hot, why didn't you two call me?"

"I can row over and meet you, then you won't have to work so hard!" Su Yun Chu said, glancing at Shen Yu Qing and Liu Wen Tao, who were drenched in sweat.

After hearing this, Shen Yuqing and Liu Wentao looked at Su Yunchu and shook their heads slightly.

Shen Yuqing then spoke up, "Cousin Yun Chu, we only exercised a little and sweated a bit, it's nothing! Don't you think so, Young Master Liu?"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao looked at Shen Yuqing, then at Su Yunchu, and nodded slightly. "Yes! It's a good opportunity to improve our physical fitness."

After Liu Wentao finished speaking, he suddenly remembered some things Shen Yuqing had said on the way to the temple.

He looked at Shen Yuqing and found that her complexion was normal. Although she also looked a little tired, she did not feel as physically exhausted and weak as he did.

Liu Wentao thought to himself that he really should work on his physical fitness, otherwise how could he protect Chu'er, or the person who would be with him for the rest of his life?

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuqing and Su Yun suddenly remembered some things that had happened on the road where they and Liu Wentao had come to the temple.

Su Yun Chu looked at Liu Wen Tao and nodded slightly, "Brother Wen Tao, you can definitely do it, keep it up!"

Shen Yuqing then spoke up, "Young Master Liu, you're not going to make me and Cousin Yun Chu carry you back later, are you? Let me tell you, that's impossible!"

As Shen Yuqing spoke, she glanced at Liu Wentao and smiled. Upon hearing this, Liu Wentao shook his head slightly, "Miss Shen, it's not that bad. I, Liu Wentao, am not that incompetent!"

After hearing this, Su Yun looked at Shen Yuqing, then at Liu Wentao, sighed, and said in a low voice, "Hey, Cousin Yuqing, please say less!"

As Su Yunchu spoke, she slowly steered the small boat towards Shen Yuqing and Liu Wentao, "Cousin Yuqing, Brother Wentao, would you like to come aboard?"

After hearing this, Shen Yuqing and Liu Wentao looked at Su Yunchu and nodded slightly. After the small boat docked, Su Yunchu helped Shen Yuqing and Liu Wentao up one by one.

After the two women had steadied themselves, Su Yun Chu rowed the boat to the center of the pond.

In the center of the pond was a large patch of lotus flowers. The lotus flowers were pink and tender, like little fairies dressed in pink clothes. They were so beautiful!

Looking at the vast expanse of beautiful lotus flowers, Liu Wentao picked two of the larger and prettier ones, giving one to Su Yunchu and the other to Shen Yuqing.

Su Yun Chu and Shen Yu Qing accepted the lotus flowers handed to them by Liu Wen Tao. Shen Yu Qing nodded slightly, while Su Yun Chu smiled and said, "Brother Wen Tao, thank you, I really like them!"

Shen Yuqing and Su Yunchu placed the lotus flowers on the small boat and then began to pick the lotus pods. Before long, the three of them had picked quite a few lotus pods.

Su Yun Chu also dug up a lot of lotus roots in the lotus pond. The lotus roots looked muddy and very dirty.

Seeing this, Shen Yuqing looked at the lotus root, then at Su Yun Chu, and shook her head slightly. "Cousin Yun Chu, why did you bring up such dirty things? Is this even edible?"

After hearing this, Su Yun looked at Shen Yuqing and said with a slight smile, "Cousin Yuqing, this is lotus root, it's a really good thing!"

"Don't be fooled by its dirtiness, it'll be clean after a quick wash. We can use it to make pork rib soup, or we can make lotus root starch and soak it in the starch to eat—it tastes really good!"

After hearing this, Shen Yuqing looked at Su Yunchu and nodded with some disbelief.
