Chapter 193 We’re Penniless Now
Although Ling Tianyi was not afraid of coldness, he liked Xia Xiaoluo’s hand-made sweater very much. He really wanted to wear the clothes made by Xia Xiaoluo. Though his clothes were very expensive, but now he liked this sweater best.
Xia Xiaoluo knew that Ling Tianyi wanted her to make more clothes for him, so she smiled bitterly and said, “Darling, the knitting wool is almost used up, I can just knit a pair of gloves for you. If you want the scarf, hat or woolen trousers, you have to wait till I get the salary next month. Because I want to buy it with my own money.”
Ling Tianyi was very moved and happy. “Darling, I’m glad about that. But I don’t want you to work so hard. In fact, as long as you knit it by yourself, I will love and cherish it even if you buy it with my money. Because that’s your goodwill, it’s priceless!”
“But I want to buy things for you with my own money. I like that feeling. They are different!” Xia Xiaoluo said. She always felt anxious. If Ling Desheng wanted to separate them, she wished she could leave something to him, so that Ling Tianyi would not forget her soon. At least in winter, he could remember the warmth she gave him.
“You can do it as you like. Anyway, don’t be too tired.” Ling Tianyi said happily.
“My God! I’ve been talking to you. Get up quickly or we’ll miss the plane.” Ling Tianyi scrapped Xia Xiaoluo’s nose.
Xia Xiaoluo got up quickly. She always got up quickly because she wanted to sleep a little longer. She usually finished washing in five minutes, but today she was ready in only three minutes. She was already at the door now.
“Darling, hurry up!” Xia Xiaoluo was wearing her boots and shouting at Ling Tianyi.
“Yes! I am faster than you!” Ling Tianyi put on his shoes and took Xia Xiaoluo out.
There was no traffic jam all the way, so they arrived at the airport on time. The staff of Hously Hotel brought their luggage and helped them to check it out.
Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo to pass through the Security Check directly when they arrived at the airport. An awkward trip for Ling Tianyi was about to begin.
When they arrived at Y City, it was really warm there. Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo to the hotel to get changed first. Xia Xiaoluo put on the white dress Ling Tianyi bought for her. “Darling, am I beautiful?”
“Beauty, come on, give me a kiss!” Ling Tianyi joked, he believed in his taste.
Xia Xiaoluo tiptoed and kissed the chin of Ling Tianyi. “Darling, it’s time to go for dinner! I’m hungry!”
“OK!” Ling Tianyi kissed Xia Xiaoluo. He knew that Xia Xiaoluo didn’t like the food in the hotel. So he agreed to take her to eat all kinds of local snacks in Y City.
Y City was like spring all the year-round. But it was not summer now, so Xia Xiaoluo was wearing a thin sweater, thicker stockings and boots. These clothes were put in the suitcase early in the morning by Ling Tianyi. Although he hoped that his wife could be beautiful, he did not want her to catch a cold.
Xia Xiaoluo took a small bag and left the hotel with Ling Tianyi in casual clothes.
“Darling, I heard that the Cross Bridge Rice Noodles are very famous. Let’s have a try! Then we can go and buy some Flowers Cakes! What’s more, there would be a lot of fruits.” Xia Xiaoluo sat in the taxi, talking continuously. She was a glutton, even she dressed like a princess. As long as there was delicious food, she would eat it quickly without noticing her image.
“This is the most famous Cross Bridge Rice Noodles restaurant in Y City, you will enjoy it!” The taxi driver was very enthusiastic.
“Wow! I’ll have a big meal here!” Xia Xiaoluo got off the car excitedly.
“I’ve been to Y City before, one bowl of Cross Bridge Rice Noodles is enough for you, so don’t think about other foods. Anyway, we will stay here for several days. We can taste other foods one by one. Don’t get sick on the first day, otherwise you won’t play here.” Ling Tianyi said, “Every time we went for a trip, you would have an accident. This time we must be safe!”
“Yes! When I went to the Hot Spring Park, I was kidnapped. When I went to the grassland to ride a horse, I fell down. Even if I went to the Ocean Park, I fell into the pool. However, these were coincidences. I will not be so unlucky this time.” Xia Xiaoluo said.
“Ha ha ha!” Ling Tianyi laughed and said, “If I come alone, I’m sure nothing will happen. If you are here, everything could happen.”
“Please, am I so unreliable? Darling, believe me this time, OK?” Xia Xiaoluo said sadly.
“Well, trust you! Don’t worry, I’ll protect you. But you have to be more careful.” Ling Tianyi took Xia Xiaoluo’s hands for fear that she would get lost in a strange city.
“Darling, I am not a child anymore. Even if I lose everything, I will not lose myself.” Xia Xiaoluo laughed.
“I hope so!” Ling Tianyi was still worried about Xia Xiaoluo, taking her hands all the time.
“Darling, don’t be so wordy. Let’s go! I’m hungry” Xia Xiaoluo rushed into the restaurant with holding Ling Tianyi’s hands.
“I think you’re greedy! I don’t believe that you’re hungry after eating so many snacks on the plane!” Ling Tianyi followed Xia Xiaoluo into the restaurant, exposing her true thought.
Although it was over two o’clock in the afternoon, there were many tourists in the restaurant. Y City was a famous tourist city. Xia Xiaoluo took Ling Tianyi to sit in the crowded hall. She liked the feeling of bustling, and the food would be more delicious. Ling Tianyi sat with her without objection. Since he married Xia Xiaoluo, he was used to eating in the hall.
Ling Tianyi ordered the most luxurious set. The waiter served them well. All the trimmings were placed on the table, with a huge bowl of delicious soup.
Ling Tianyi helped Xia Xiaoluo to put the rice noodles and trimmings into the soup. Xia Xiaoluo looked at the bowl in front of her and said, “How big it is!”
“If you can’t eat it up, you can put it there. Don’t get sick, otherwise our journey will be ended again.” Ling Tianyi was afraid that she would overeat.
“Darling, just one bowl! I can eat it! Look at the girl next to us, I can eat more than her!” Xia Xiaoluo said, pointing at a thin girl next to her. The girl who ate up all the rice noodles and trimmings was enjoying the soup now.
“Be careful anyway!” Ling Tianyi said. He wanted to take some vegetables from her bowl later. He had to help her to eat some so that Xia Xiaoluo would not overeat.
After soaking for a while, Xia Xiaoluo picked up the chopsticks and began to eat happily. Ling Tianyi saw that Xia Xiaoluo was eating happily. He began to enjoy it too. Y City was warm, and they felt hotter after eating the hot Cross Bridge Rice Noodles, so Ling Tianyi took off his coat and put it on the chair beside him.
“I will help you to eat some!” Ling Tianyi put his chopsticks into Xia Xiaoluo’s bowl.
“No, I can eat it up!” Xia Xiaoluo protected her bowl hurriedly for fear that the delicious food would be robbed by Ling Tianyi.
They ate happily, laughing and talking. Ling Tianyi only took a few rice noodles from Xia Xiaoluo’s bowl. Finally, Xia Xiaoluo ate up all the noodles.
“Burp!” Xia Xiaoluo touched her belly and said with satisfactory, “I’m full!”
“Are you all right!” Ling Tianyi was afraid that Xia Xiaoluo would overeat, so he asked, “Shall we go to the hospital?”
“No, let’s go! I need some walking!” Xia Xiaoluo said.
“OK, if you don’t feel well, just tell me!” When Ling Tianyi said this, he wanted to take his coat and pay for the bill.
“Where’s my coat?” Ling Tianyi found that his coat was not on the chair beside him.
Ling Tianyi stood up and looked around, but he couldn’t find his coat. Xia Xiaoluo also helped him look for it. “Darling, it might be stolen! Your coat is expensive!”
“Darling, it is not the problem of the coat. My wallet and mobile phone are in the pocket of the coat, I have no money to pay for the bill. You have to pay for it.” Ling Tianyi thought that Xia Xiaoluo has spent all the money she earned, but there was a lot of money in the card he gave her, and they could use the money in the card.
Xia Xiaoluo’s small bag was hanging on her back. But when she pulled the belt, she found that her bag disappeared. “God! Where is my bag!”
Ling Tianyi took the belt in Xia Xiaoluo’s hands, it was obvious that her bag was cut off by someone.
“Darling, my wallet and mobile phone are in my bag.” Xia Xiaoluo was anxious now.
“Darling, we’re penniless now!” Ling Tianyi said helplessly, “We have no money to pay for the bill!”
“I’ll wash the dishes for the boss and deduct the money.” Xia Xiaoluo suggested.
“No. Let me deal with it!” Ling Tianyi shook his head, he did not expect that such a thing could happen.
