Chapter 189 - My Husband is Still the Best
“My husband is still the best…”
Jiang Yuning was moved to tears.
Lu Jingzhi watched as Jiang Yuning gobbled down the food greedily, as if she had been starving all along. “Slow down. Eat slowly.”
Both of them had already decided to take a different route down the mountain today. The route that they had planned on taking would be on the opposite side of the mountain. This side of the mountain would challenge both of them physically as they make their way down.
After eating her breakfast, Jiang Yuning quickly cleaned up before she grabbed her backpack and followed after Lu Jingzhi.
Jiang Yuning had initially thought that hiking down the mountain would be easier with Lu Jingzhi, but she was wrong. Lu Jingzhi stuck to his promise and was very strict with her.
His footsteps were way quicker in comparison to Ku Jie’s and at this time, he was like an emotionless machine.
Lu Jingzhi tightened the hood of Jiang Yuning’s windbreaker to prevent the rain water from getting into her clothing.
This was because she did not complain nor did she give up even when they were faced with many challenges and difficulties.
They had already been hiking for about three or four hours continuously without taking a break and she did not complain at all. She did not cause any trouble to Lu Jingzhi.
“But you have been taking care of me and making sure that I am doing fine all along the way.”
“I am your husband. Of course I would take care of you. As far as I am concerned, even when I am not around, I am certain that you would be able to do well without me.”
After listening to Lu Jingzhi’s words, Jiang Yuning took out her cell phone and took a picture of them under the rain as a keepsake.
“Did you bring your whistle along with you?”
“Yes, I brought it,” Jiang Yuning replied as she took the whistle out of her pocket.
“I will take advantage of this opportunity to teach you some of the ways that you can use your whistle to call for help. It is useless to simply blow the whistle when you are out in the wild. You have to blow the whistle three short times, three long times and followed by another three short times to call for help. Make sure that you remember this, okay?”
“I will keep this in mind,” Jiang Yuning replied as she nodded her head. “When the time comes, I do not believe that the expert team will be able to look down on me then. Both of you are my secret weapons!”
She already had two male gods helping her out.
“Muyang is right. Most of the so-called experts do not actually have real life experience in the wild. Therefore, you should not be afraid of them, nor should you allow them to belittle you. What they possess is merely knowledge that they have gained from books.”
“Alright, I understand, second brother. I will not embarrass you,” Jiang Yuning quickly raised her hand and assured Lu Jingzhi.
Lu Jingzhi held her hand before he kissed her gently on her lips. After the rain stopped, he then started leading the way down the mountain again.
At this time, Jiang Yuning finally understood that her brother and second brother had already agreed beforehand to take turns to guide her. This was so that they could help her gain more knowledge and skills that the other party would not have been able to teach her.
They did not tell her in advance and that was why she had been really surprised when she saw Lu Jingzhi on the mountain.
Later in the evening, both of them finally made it out of the mountains. Jiang Yuning felt extremely exhausted and she felt as though her legs were about to give way because she was really worn out.
She looked at her ankles which were covered with blisters and broken skin, yet still felt that this trip was completely worth it.
This was especially because she had the opportunity to look at Lu Jingzhi’s back the whole way down the mountain and this gave her a sense of joy and security that no one else could ever provide…
