Chapter 776: Mr. Xie, What was Your Wife like? “I’m a little curious what kind of person your wife was to be so lucky to have your daughter…”

Xie Xuning interrupted Xie Yi sternly and said, “I don’t think people who study medicine have time to gossip.”

Xie Yi was shocked by his words. However, the more Xie Xuning acted that way, the more she grew obsessed with him.

The plum grove appeared right in front of them.

Thousands of beautiful plum trees were planted on the mountain.

The scenery of the red plums and white snow under the sun looked like a paradise.

There were voluminous white clouds in the clear blue sky.

There was pure white snow under their feet and a flaming plum grove in front of them.

A cool breeze would occasionally caress their skin as the snow on the plum blossoms slowly melted away.

“It’s gorgeous.”

Xie Yi could not help but admire how the monks had built a magnificent temple on the top of this mountain for more than a century.

There were so many beautiful plum trees planted here. Was there a beautiful story about this that was passed down between generations?

Xie Xuning secretly liked the beauty in Xie Yi’s eyes.

His mind was stuck on the sign he just received.

The words on the sign were deeply imprinted in his mind.

“Ah…”

Xie Yi was just about to walk deep into the plum grove when she suddenly slipped and fell into it.

Xie Xuning returned to his senses, pounced beside Xie Yi, and grabbed the end of Xie Yi’s scarf.

“Be careful.”

Xie Yi didn’t slip down.

She felt a little uncomfortable with the scarf wrapped around her neck.

The snow seeped into her clothes through the gap in her neck when she fell to the ground. It felt chilling.

“Thanks.”

Xie Yi struggled to stand up from the ground and adjusted her scarf a bit.

“You reacted quite fast just now.”

Xie Xuning said softly, “Thank you.”

Xie Yi became a little bit irritated. What was wrong with this man?

Why was he being so careful with his words now?

“I don’t want to look at the plum blossoms anymore.”

Xie Yi was almost furious. They finally had the chance to be alone so she could show her best side to Xie Xuning. Why did she mess that up when she fell on the snow?

“Then let’s go back.”

When Xie Xuning and Xie Yi returned to the temple, Ye Tianxin and Shi Han were already sitting by the charcoal brazier. A few cooked potatoes were roasted on the edge of it.

Ye Tianxin exclaimed in surprise, “Dad, look at the baked potatoes.”

Xie Xuning sat down with Ye Tianxin and asked, “Do you want to eat?”

“Yes, but the potatoes are a bit hot. I don’t want to peel them yet.”

Xie Xuning picked up a potato from the edge of the brazier and peeled it for Ye Tianxin carefully and tenderly.

On the other side, Shi Han had already peeled one off and was feeding it to Mo’er.

“Careful, it’s hot.”

Ye Tianxin nibbled on the roasted potatoes.

Sometimes, cooking the food in the most primitive way was the only way to maintain the most simple taste of the food itself.

“Take small bites, don’t burn yourself.”

Xie Xuning grabbed a teacup with some green tea in it. He handed it to Ye Tianxin to let her drink some.

“Dad, are the plum trees blossoming already?”

“Yes, they are.”

Ye Tianxin asked Xie Yi, “Dr. Xie, do you like plum blossoms?”

“No, I don’t.”

Xie Yi decided that she would not like plum blossoms anymore. It was rather unfortunate.

Ye Tianxin was a little shocked and replied, “Sorry, Dr. Xie, I didn’t know you don’t like plum blossoms.”

Glancing at Ye Tianxin’s delicate face, Xie Yi explained to her nonchalantly, “It’s none of your business.”
