Liu Sanniang smiled. “Okay, thank you.”

The waiter wanted to smile at Liu Sanniang, but when Chu Yan looked at him, he did not dare to stretch his lips.

After Chu Yan and Liu Sanniang walked out, the waiter touched his head and muttered. “Why are these two people so strange? One is like a Rakshasa, and the other is like a Bodhisattva…”

Bodhisattva was naturally liked by everyone. As for Rakshasa, it was naturally hated by everyone.

On the bustling street, the morning market was very lively. Many caravans stopped and many tourists strolled around.

Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan found a stall and sat down.

There were more than ten types of breakfast alone. Liu Sanniang was a little conflicted. She wanted to eat every one of them, but she could not possibly eat so much.

Chu Yan said to the stall owner, “One of each.”

Chu Yan looked at Liu Sanniang with a doting expression. “If you can’t finish it, I’ll eat it.”

Liu Sanniang blushed. They were only engaged and had yet to get married. Wasn’t Chu Yan being too intimate like this?

Chu Yan’s gentle gaze made Liu Sanniang become almost infatuated. She did not dare to linger her eyes on him.

She remembered that Chu Yan was not like this at the beginning. The first time she saw him, his eyes were very aggressive, as if he treated her as prey, making her feel terrified.

However, at some point, Chu Yan started to smile. There was a smile in his eyes and his expression became much gentler.

Liu Sanniang was distracted. Fortunately, she could focus on eating.

The breakfast was light, but the taste was extremely good.

Liu Sanniang did not notice that a girl was sitting by the stall.

After eating, Liu Sanniang realized that Chu Yan had already paid the bill.

Liu Sanniang was embarrassed. Chu Yan said, “Let’s go to see the sea.”

The girl at the stall next to him muttered. “What kind of man is that who eats what a woman doesn’t want. It’s so disgusting.”

Liu Sanniang’s hearing far exceeded that of ordinary people. The girl muttered softly, but she heard it. She looked at Chu Yan. Could he have heard it too? Chu Yan’s expression did not change, as if he did not hear it.

Chu Yan held Liu Sanniang’s hand. Liu Sanniang still couldn’t get used to being so intimate with him but Chu Yan spoke up. “You’ll get used to it.”

She almost panicked.

If nothing went wrong, she and Chu Yan would get married and do some really intimate things. However, she was not accustomed to it. Every time Chu Yan got close to her, she would be very nervous.

In the Xia Dynasty, after the engagement, men and women did not have to worry about being affectionate in public.

Chu Yan’s fingers were long and well-defined. When he held her hand, Liu Sanniang wanted to break free a few times, but Chu Yan would increase his strength whenever she had that thought.

She almost panicked.

Ahhh, crazy, crazy.

Chu Yan brought Liu Sanniang to the market. Liu Sanniang couldn’t help but ask. “What are we doing here?”

Chu Yan replied. “To buy a carriage. We can use it in the future.”

Liu Sanniang was about to say that she didn’t plan to go out often, but Chu Yan had already chosen a maroon horse. He said, “We’ll take this one.”

Liu Sanniang looked into Chu Yan’s eyes and couldn’t refuse. She nodded. “Okay, okay.”

Chu Yan smiled. “Sanniang, money.”

For some reason, Liu Sanniang felt very sweet when Chu Yan called her by her name. They were becoming more and more like a married couple where she was the one managing the money.

Liu Sanniang paid the money with a flushed face and sat in the carriage while Chu Yan drove the carriage. Liu Sanniang touched her hot cheeks. What should she do? Her heart was beating so fast.

The carriage swayed as it moved forward and Liu Sanniang gradually fell asleep.

It was Chu Yan who woke her up. She got out of the carriage and looked at the beach and fishing village not far away. She took a deep breath and her mood improved.

The sea was blue. Here, there was an endless sea and villages were scattered along the coast.

In the distant sea, birds that she did not know circled in the air. The air smelled like the sea too.

Chu Yan led the horse. “We’ll leave the carriage at the farmhouse first. Then, we’ll go and take a look at the sea.”

Liu Sanniang nodded.

Chu Yan tied the horse and borrowed a wooden bucket from the farmhouse before bringing Liu Sanniang to the beach.

There were many fishermen digging on the beach after the tide receded. Chu Yan brought Liu Sanniang to the other side. There were not many people here and there were more stones. Chu Yan held Liu Sanniang’s hand and walked past the pile of stones to the small beach. The sand was soft and moist.

Chu Yan handed the wooden bucket to Liu Sanniang. “Let’s go and take a look. We might be able to find something good.”

Liu Sanniang had heard from the waiter yesterday that she could pick up some small things by the sea. All those things were edible. If she was lucky, she could pick up a few good things. This was the first time she came to the sea and was curious about everything.

A crab crawled past in front of them. Liu Sanniang ran over and stepped on it. Her voice was filled with excitement. “I… I’ve never seen such a big crab.”

What was more, it was different from the crabs she knew. However, they walked sideways and had big pincers.

Liu Sanniang grabbed the crab and put it in the bucket.

Chu Yan said calmly, “You’re so lucky.”

Liu Sanniang was very happy. “I think so too.”

“Er… What is this? It’s so big. I’ll pick it up…”

Liu Sanniang felt that these treasures in the sea were coming at her one after another.

Soon, there were several large crabs and large conches in the bucket.

The smile never left her face.

Liu Sanniang was tired from picking up the things. When she saw a woman not far away, she stopped and walked towards the woman.

Xu Xue was lying on a stone wall and was using a pair of pliers to dig something out. When she sensed that someone was there, she stood up and saw Liu Sanniang. Xu Xue smiled. “Miss, it’s you.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Hello, my name is Liu Sanniang.”

Xu Xue smiled. “Hello, Miss Liu. My name is Xu Xue. Are you here to have fun?”

Liu Sanniang nodded. When Xu Xue saw the wooden bucket Chu Yan was carrying, she was a little shocked. “Did you pick these up?”

She nodded. “Yes.”

Xu Xue smiled. “You’re so lucky. These things are very rare. If you sell them, you can get a good price.”

“It’s rare to see such big crabs, snails and abalones.”

Xu Xue was in disbelief. Liu Sanniang actually found these things just by walking along the beach.

This abalone was very big, almost the size of a big palm. It should be from the deep sea. The ones in the shallow sea were all taken away. Liu Sanniang’s luck was so good that it made people jealous…

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Then, I’m really lucky today.”

Xu Xue heaved a sigh of relief. After all, Liu Sanniang was an outsider and did not know that this was rare. It was normal for her not to be so surprised.

Liu Sanniang asked. “I saw you digging something just now. What are you digging?”
