The uncontaminated sea was as clear as the blue sky above. The sounds of the emerald waves incessantly crashing onto the white sands of the beach pervaded the air.
If bluish white was the color of heaven, then the Aegean Sea was a piece of paradise on earth.
The serpentine pebbled path, which was at the foot of the hill and by the sea, had white railings. A white house stood there; its blue roof had a white cross and its blue windows occasionally revealed the white curtains within.
Pei Ge in a long bohemian dress strolled on the beach, feeling at peace with herself for once in her life.
Her long dress danced with the gentle breeze.
The view here was simply breathtaking.
One’s soul could get cleansed just by listening to the Greek music playing from afar and looking at the bluish white expanse above and the woman in a long dress.
When Ji Ziming arrived, he saw this very scene. For a moment, when he looked at the young lady standing not far away, he thought that it would be good too if they could hide their identities and stay here forever.
“Ziming, you’re here! Where’s my juice?”
The woman picked up a seashell from the sands and stood up; this was when she saw him standing there, staring at her with fervent eyes.
“I had someone send it over.”
As he spoke, the man walked to her side and gently embraced her.
“The sun here is high now. Why don’t we head back and rest?” suggested the man while smiling at her.
Who knew that she would roll his eyes at him, though?
“I don’t want. I don’t feel like heading back.”
“Alright, then. Let’s not head back.”
As he saw her looking upset, he knew deep down the reason for it.
However, although he knew…
“Shoot! How did your benefactor find out about this place? Did you tell her?” she demanded, feeling infuriated as she thought of this matter.
She wanted to spend time alone with him before returning home to resume work, but who would have expected that Qiao Jingyun would appear in front of them before she could spend enough time with him, though?
Pei Ge boiled with unknown rage the moment she thought of that woman appearing right in front of her and saying ‘what a coincidence’ with a big smile on her face.
“I didn’t tell her,” denied the man without thinking.
“If not you, who did? She dared to say ‘what a coincidence’; is she lying to ghosts?!” She pouted her lips in dissatisfaction. “She obviously knew that you’re here, so she purposely came to look for you!”
“If you don’t like it, let’s go to another place. We don’t have to stay here per se.” He tapped her head lightly.
“I don’t want! Why should we leave the place when we are the ones having our honeymoon here?! Plus, we have our home here…”
This was the real reason why she did not want to leave. Their initial plan was to stay at the beach house by the Aegean Sea for some time before flying to Provence and Maldives to have their remaining wedding photoshoot, but because of the beautiful view here, she decided to spend their remaining time here.
The man, who had long predicted what her answer would be, shook his head wryly at her.
“Stupid woman.”
“I’m not stupid! Hmph!”
Just as the two were bickering, several waiters in uniforms brought over a long, white table.
As they got nearer, she noticed that there were quite a lot of food, beverages and wine on the table.
“This is…”
She confusedly blinked her eyes at the man.
“What is this? Don’t tell me we’re having today’s lunch here?”
“Mhm, right.”
He nodded his head while he watched the waiters lay out the table and set up a transparent, anti-dust canopy. He held her hand and led her to the prepared canopy.
“Didn’t you say that you wanna have a meal by the sea? Since the wind isn’t too strong today, it’s just perfect for a meal outdoors.”
Hearing that, her anger finally dissipated.
Every time they had their meals these few days, Qiao Jingyun, who was staying at the house opposite of theirs, would always walk over to propose that they shared a meal.
Although he mercilessly rejected her every time, Pei Ge still felt uncomfortable.
Sitting across him, she looked curiously at the food on the table.
“Could it be that… all this food was prepared by you?”
Looking at the delectable Greek delicacies, she could not help but think to herself. Could it be that this annoying fellow had disappeared earlier to learn how to cook Greek cuisines?
“What do you think?”
The man did not answer her question; instead, he arched a brow of his slightly at her with a smile that was not quite a smile.
“I-It couldn’t be!”
She looked at him as if she were seeing a ghost and exclaimed, “You abandoned me earlier and disappeared for so long just to make lunch? It couldn’t be. Since when did you learn to cook local cuisines?”
“The dishes here aren’t difficult to learn. They’re easy compared to Chinese dishes.”
His reply only confirmed that the food was indeed prepared by him.
“Ziming, how am I going to be a good wife to you and a mother to your kids if you’re learning new cuisines wherever you go?” she softly complained, feeling her stress mounting.
For others, the case is usually the wives cooking well and doing it often, but when it comes to this man, it’s the complete opposite! Although such a husband is fantastic, I too want to be a good wife and a mother!
“Then, I’ll reluctantly be a good husband and a father!”
