Chapter: 5762

Lin Wan'er smiled faintly, her eyes filled with sincerity: "As long as the prince is here, I know I've found a place where I can rest my head. The only difference between us is that I have no one to rely on, no family or friends. To me, death isn't something to fear, but rather an escape. So I'd like to take care of it myself and not involve the prince."

Lei Chen waved his hand dismissively: "I can't persuade you even if I tried, so why do you think you can persuade me?"

Lin Wan'er persisted: "This is a personal grudge between us and Wu Feiyun."

Lei Chen spoke calmly: "I have my own grievances with her. Although my parents weren't killed by her hands, she was the mastermind behind it all, making her my greatest enemy."

Lin Wan'er hurriedly said: "So I'll stay here today to slap Wu Feiyun's face, and you can take care of getting revenge on her later. We can divide the workload between us."

Lei Chen shook his head, looking at Lin Wan'er seriously: "Why don't we just do it this way? From now on, whenever there are matters related to Wu Feiyun, you'll accompany me. Today I'll accompany you in slapping her face, and later you can accompany me in exacting revenge. How does that sound?"

Lin Wan'er gazed at Lei Chen, her eyes gradually becoming blurry with tears, and before she knew it, tears were welling up in her eyes.

She forced back her tears, smiled gently, and said: "I am honored by your kindness. From now on, I will accompany you in all matters!"

...

Doubler Ancient Town.

Ye Chen and Lin Wan'er, dressed as a couple, did not rush to buy equipment but instead walked around the town looking at things.

Although Doubler Ancient Town seemed to have undergone a major transformation in Lin Wan'er's eyes, she still managed to find some memories from her youth.

She found a stone bridge that she had walked across many times when she was young and pulled Ye Chen's hand excitedly, exclaiming: "Dear, this is the bridge I used to cross when I was little!"

Ye Chen asked in surprise: "Are you sure it's this bridge?"

"Yes!" Lin Wan'er grabbed Ye Chen's hand and led him onto the green stone path, pointing to a patch of worn-out green stone in the middle, introducing him: "This patch is damaged by a startled horse that galloped across the bridge. The owner was a stonemason who came to give the soil chief of Doubler two stone sculptures for his new house. However, the horse got nervous and slipped, almost falling off the bridge, then it frantically ran forward, knocking over the cart with the sculpture, which landed on this patch of stone."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added: "That day I was accompanying my grandfather from Da Li Ancient City to congratulate the soil chief here, so I just happened to be watching the horse's startled gallop and accident at the bridge edge."

Ye Chen listened as she described it, his mind already unconsciously imagining the scene she was describing.

At that moment, a little girl around 7 or 8 years old wearing Hanfu and carrying a sugar cane, walked onto the bridge with quick, light steps. Her mother was following behind her, taking pictures with her phone. Her father was carrying two big and small bags and holding two cups of drinks, walking leisurely.

Lin Wan'er's eyes were still following that little girl, and a faint smile appeared on her face as she said to Ye Chen: "At that time, I was even younger than her."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er playfully blinked at Ye Chen and said: "But my clothes back then were more beautiful. Granny embroidered the garment for me with great care, and it's a one-of-a-kind piece in all of Xiangnan. It's not like the Hanfu dresses young girls wear nowadays, which are mostly imitations and lack the essence of traditional Hanfu."

Ye Chen thought back to when he met Lin Wan'er in Northern Europe, and she was wearing a Hanfu dress that was exquisite beyond words. So he curiously asked her: "When I first saw you in Northern Europe, where did you buy your clothes?"

Lin Wan'er blushed and laughed, saying: "The first time we met, I was still making my own clothes. The embroidered skirt with the cloud-like shoulder was also handmade by me. My embroidery skills are passed down from Granny, but unfortunately, Granny has passed away, so I only mastered about 6 or 7 parts of her skills."

After that, Ye Chen accompanied Lin Wan'er to explore the ancient town for a few hours. Once Lin Wan'er had finished exploring, they found an outdoor gear store and purchased some camping equipment.

Since they were pretending to be a couple, they bought a tent, sleeping bags, and a portable stove, as well as other necessary items.

In addition, Ye Chen also bought two folding chairs, a folding table, and some daily essentials. JrNovels.com
