Pampering Husband And Sweet Wife
Chapter 68 Ai Changhuan, Don't Go!

Ai asked out of curiosity, "Hey, I think you're not feudalistic superstition. Why are you making requests too?"

Lu Zhanke said lightly, "Following the local customs."

Ai snorted in disgust.

Both took notes and wrote their own wishes.

Ai covered her notes and hid them, "Don't peek. People who steal glances eat instant noodles without seasoning packs."

Lu said with a grin, "You have spoken your wish out loud. Do I need to peek?"

"Huh," Ai said with a disdainful expression on her face before she wrote down her wish.

Never before had Lu looked so serious and serious, he had never believed in superstition, but right now he hoped the hope made by the floating lantern would come true.

Ai has lied. Actually, his real wish was, "Lu Zhanke, don't get hurt again."

His last bullet wound really scared him, he hoped that after he left and was no longer with him, he would always be safe and sound.

When they finished, they handed the note to the shopkeeper and asked him to put it on the river lantern, then they took the lantern and went to the river.

Ai looked at the lantern and asked, "Did you bring a match? Our lanterns haven't been lit."

Lu Zhanke did not smoke. Why did he bring a lighter with him? He looked around and saw someone lighting a lantern not far from him. He said to Ai, "Wait here. I'll borrow one."

“Alright, please.” Ai saw Lu Zhanke leave, and then her gaze fell on the Lu river lantern.

After hesitating for a moment, he took out a note on the river lantern, opened it, and looked at the words on it.

“Ai Changhuan, don't go.” This was his unspoken wish.

Holding the paper, he sobbed but did not dare to shout, trembling and biting his lips, he folded the paper and inserted it into the lantern.

Two unlit lanterns stood beside his feet. Ai crouched on the ground with her hands folded on her knees, her cheeks dipped into her knees. A warm liquid gushed out from his eyes and soaked his clothes.

It was very awkward for her to cry in front of him. She tried not to let him see her tears. He took a few deep breaths, desperately drying the tears with his sleeves, and squeezing a stiff smile.

When Lu Zhanke returned with a borrowed match, he saw Ai sitting on the ground and immediately pulled her up, "Don't sit on the ground. There's plenty of water."

"Hey, it's because I'm tired." Ai forced a smile. "Are you borrowing a match?"

Let me turn it on.” Lu crouched down, lit two lanterns one by one, and sat down by the river hand in hand with Ai.

"Are you ready?" ask Lu.

“Siap.” Ai looked excited.

“Then let them go.” The two put lanterns on the river at the same time, and then they crouched there watching the river lantern slowly drift.

Lu asked, "Will that wish really come true?"

Ai looked at the lantern anxiously but did not reply. Lu's wish is destined to be unattainable, but he hopes his wish can be fulfilled.

No. gabe. No. gabe. His wish would also not have materialized because if he were to leave, Lu would definitely be injured.

His eyes were heating up again, Ai suddenly stood up and shouted across the river, "Our desire will be realized. They will!"

He's fooling himself and Lu.

Lu turned to the side to look at Ai whose nose was flushed red, then there was a long silence.

After a while, the two people from downstream suddenly ran towards them, they were Pei Mu and Du Yucheng.

Du Yucheng asked anxiously, "Did you see Ouyang Zhenzhen? He seems lost."

You frowned, "How did this happen? Has he not been with you all this time?"

"Yes," said Pei Mu, "But for a moment, the place was so crowded that when we were pushed out, we had lost him."

"Did you call him?" Lu asked.

"Yes. The phone is turned off" Du Yucheng replied.

"Right now Anxin is waiting under the biggest lantern. Let's take a quick look around. "Pei Mu doesn't look good. After all, Ouyang Zhenzhen was the daughter of Commander Ouyang, and she was taken out by them. How do they explain it? to his family if he gets lost?If something bad happens ... He did not dare to think further.

“Oke.” Lu held Ai's hand, and they walked together.

Ai said, "How can we find him if we stay here together? Let's split up. If any of us find him, we'll call each other. If we don't find it in half an hour, then we'll gather under a big lantern. He shouldn't have gotten lost in such a small place."

“Cautious.” Lu advised again, “Don't go too far. Contact me immediately if something happens.”

"Yes, I know. You must be careful too."

After discussing, they split up and looked for Ouyang while calling out his name.

Ai Changhuan went east, and Du Yucheng went west. But a few minutes later, Ai suddenly realized that someone was behind her. He turned around and found that it was Du Yucheng.

Du Yucheng said, "There is no way there. It's a fence, so I'm back."

“Oh.” Without saying anything more, Ai went to ask the people next to her if they had ever seen a girl who was slightly shorter than her with big eyes and a round face. But all of those people answered no.

Du Yucheng looked at this and said, "I didn't expect you to care about Ouyang. Don't you hate him?"

"I do hate him, but I can't just sit back and do nothing if he disappears."

“Why do you hate it?” Du Yucheng asked again.

"Because ..." When Ai started to reply, she looked up and saw the same face as Qin Zhan. Under the moonlight, not only did they look the same, but they also had the same expression. In a trance, she felt that the person in front of her was Qin Zhan, who stood in the moonlight and asked her to be her boyfriend at the top of the library building.

However, he did not.

He threw away his face and continued moving forward.

“You haven't said the reason.” Du Yucheng continued.

Ai felt a little silly. He stood still and looked back at her. "Why do I hate him? Does that matter to you? Why do you need to know?"

Du Yucheng took a step forward and looked at Ai with a cold gaze, "Because you have fallen in love with Lu Zhanke, right? So you hate Ouyang who loves him too."

"I'm..." Ai subconsciously shifted her gaze and even retreated a little, "I... Why should I answer you?"

"You didn't answer me. Does that mean you admit it? Ai Changhuan, have you forgotten Qin Zhan?" A grin appeared in the corner of his mouth. "You fell in love with another man so quickly. Where is the place? your hearts? Does he know that you play on the field?”

Ai froze everywhere with a faint chill in her heart, "I ... Not ... I'm not ..."

He clenched his palms hard, leaving behind several pale crescent moons.

“Then why don't you dare look me in the eyes, the same eyes as Qin Zhan?” Du Yucheng approached again, and as long as Ai looked up, he would understand her pain and know exactly who she was.

He was panting, in a trance, looking like he was avoiding something.

“Stop talking! Stop talking!” shout Ai. He turned and ran.

Du Yucheng narrowed his eyes behind him, the pain and despair hidden in his eyes would only be known to himself.

Half an hour later, Ai and the others returned to the large lantern, only Lu Zhanke and Ouyang Zhenzhen had yet to return.

Ai was anxious, "Did Lu Zhanke also get lost? Did he call you guys?"

Everyone shook their heads, and Pei Mu proposed, "Should we look for them again?"

Yang Anxin said, "Wait a minute. Maybe he'll be back in a minute."

What he said made sense, so they did not move, but when someone passed in front of them, they came forward to ask if anyone saw Lu Zhanke or Ouyang Zhenzhen.

Some people were asked, but all of them answered not knowing. As he was about to give up, one person finally said that he seemed to have seen Lu Zhanke.

Everyone was happy If they could find Lu Zhanke, Ouyang Zhenzhen might be found soon.

After discussing with each other, they decided that Yang Anxin should stay.The other three followed their fellow villagers to find Lu Zhanke.

Lu Zhanke had taken a very remote mountain road that was filled with bushes and had no street lights. The villagers said that he was going to his own farm when he saw a tall man calling Zhenzhen. He just looked and came back .

Hearing what that person said, Ai felt relieved. Someone had seen Lu Zhanke, so they could find Lu Zhanke as long as they followed the direction the man had pointed.

They called out the names of Lu Zhanke and Ouyang Zhenzhen as they walked, and there were only their cries and the strange screams of some beasts in the desolate mountains.

Ai accidentally stepped on the puddle, if Pei Mu did not reach out to pull her in time, she might be lying in the mud.

"Are you okay? Is this serious?" Pei Mu asked worriedly.

I'm fine.” Ai gritted her teeth and stood up with the help of Pei Mu's arm.

Du Yucheng said, "You should go back. There may be danger ahead."

Ai shook her head, "No, I want to go with you. Come on, it's okay."

Due to his diligence, Pei Mu and Du Yucheng did not say anything more, but the two subconsciously blocked in front of him to keep him from harm.

As they were walking, Ai suddenly heard someone calling for help somewhere in the distance.

"Did you guys .. hear something?" He stopped and asked the other three.

"Huh?" Pei Mu also stopped, listening carefully as he held his breath, "There's a sound in the direction of eight o'clock."

“It's true.” Du Yucheng turned around and rushed in that direction.

Ai and Pei Mu also rushed to follow.
