Chapter 38: Good Luck Comes

After devouring the large bread soaked in straw mushroom soup, Helian Jing was in a better mood as they continue on with their journey.

Halfway through their trip, it rained again, the raindrops as big as beans, pelting down and hurting their face.

“Let’s take shelter under the tree there!” Helian Jing suggested, squinting his almond-shaped eyes as he pointed towards a tree ahead.

“Are you crazy? Take a shelter under a tree in the rain? Do you want to get shot by lightning?”

Right after she had just berated him, the sky resonated with a muffled thunder growl.

They looked at each other, creeped out.

Helian Jing clenched his teeth and took his shirt off.

“What are you doing?” Ye Jiayao demanded.

Helian Jing held his shirt up above their heads to shelter them both, laughing. “This way we won’t get wet.”

Ye Jiayao could not help but feel touched as she watched him bare the top of his body to the cold just to protect her. More than half of his shirt was covering her head, and his upper body was already trickling with rainwater, yet he was still smiling so radiantly. This fellow might know next to nothing and could be quite unreasonable, but he was adorably innocent. Plus, he doesn’t get angry every time she bossed him around. That was the true mark of a gentleman right there.

“Let’s go!” Ye Jiayao inched closer to him and they both ran in the rain with their heads touching.

Fortunately for the two, the summer rain came and left quickly, leaving a double rainbow in the beautiful azure sky.

Helian Jing shouted excitedly, “Quick, look! There’s a double rainbow! I heard that if you see a double rainbow, good luck comes.”

Right now, he was desperately wishing for his luck to change. He’s been dealt with ill-fated days and it would be nice if that could change.

Ye Jiayao was in slight awe. It was her first time witnessing the double rainbow phenomenon and it was stunning.

“Say, if I make a wish, will it come true?”

Helian Jing laughed. “Who cares whether it will come true or not? Just make the wish.”

After he said that, he put his palms together, closed his eyes, and began to make a wish.  Oh beautiful rainbow fairy, please bless and protect Brother Jin and me so that we can return to Jin Ling smoothly.

Ye Jiayao followed suit. Rainbow fairy, although I am a lowly and ordinary person, I have a big wish. I want to open Jin Ling’s most famous and popular restaurant and count money everyday till my hands cramp. Of course, it is not entirely just to make money. I also want to promote Chinese cuisine…

Helian Jing opened his eyes after making his wish and saw that Brother Jin was still praying, his eyes closed. From the tiny drops of water clinging onto his curved lashes, the perfect curves from his forehead to his chin, Helian Jing found every part of him attractive.

He’d always found that brother Chunyu was an extremely enchanting man, but there was something about brother Jin that held his attention. Chunyu’s appeal and handsomeness were more heroic and masculine, while brother Jin was…  how can I describe it? Brother Jin’s look is gentle and mesmerizing.

When Ye Jiayao opened her eyes, she saw little Jingjing staring foolishly at her. “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?” Ye Jiayao touched her cheek, perplexed.
