The tent was huge and it had just enough space to fit two adults. A few kids gathered into one tent to sleep. They slept in the middle with a few adults around them so they could enjoy themselves to their hearts’ content.
Everyone was busy preparing food and water. The passersby who saw them could not help but shoot envious glances at them.
Yu Minmin was trying to get water. She glanced outside and told some people, “There’s spring water over there. I will go get some for drinking.”
“Alright, but be careful.” Mu Feiran said.
Gu Jingming heard her and got up together as well. “I will go with you.”
Yu Minmin turned around and looked at him meaningfully.
Both of them set off and were admiring their surroundings as they walked.
Yu Minmin smiled gleefully as she admired the scenery and she turned to look at his face which was as beautiful as the scenery.
She always felt very happy to be able to stay by his side. All these years, they spent every day with each other and shared the nights together. The life that he gave her was something she never had before. She led a life filled with hardships since she was young where she had to always worry about survival, but ever since she got together with him, her life had completely changed.
Although he was very overbearing and at times aloof, she felt very contented.
However, there were still times that she was afraid that she might lose everything she had. She felt that the kind of life she was leading would pass away eventually.
But she could not imagine how life would be without him.
After all, when they just got together, they agreed to not interfere with each other’s matters but now, they had been so involved in each other’s lives.
The two of them were too familiar and used to each other and this made her feel lost.
How did he feel?
Gu Jingming could feel that Yu Minmin was staring at him. He turned around to look at her. “What’s the matter? Are you tired of walking? Do you want to take a break?”
“Oh, no it’s not that. We just started walking. It’s not tiring.”
“How about I piggyback you?”
“Huh? Forget it, forget it. What will the others think when they see that?” Yu Minmin avoided in a moment of fluster.
Gu Jingming seemed to have felt her rejection and that made him a little upset.
He did not like it whenever she tried to avoid him as if he was a very intimidating person. Even though they had been together for a very long time and both of them were used to interacting with each other in this way but it still made him unhappy.
He put his arms around her shoulder and looked at her. “What’s the matter? Does it make you uncomfortable when I say that I want to piggyback you?”
“Of course not.” Yu Minmin just felt that he was the President and it would be too much of a prank if he were to piggyback her.
Gu Jingming did not think that way. He narrowed his eyes and it made him look even more threatening. He walked on, looking very upset.
Yu Minmin did not know how she had offended him, but still went after him and hit him lightly on the shoulder. “Gu Jingming, what’s wrong with you?”
Gu Jingming stretched out his hand to brush her aside.
Unexpectedly, Yu Minmin tripped over a rock and her entire body fell backward.
She fell with a loud thud.
Gu Jingming immediately turned around and saw Yu Minmin on the ground. He rushed over anxiously to grasp her body and held her up, “How are you feeling? Where did you get injured?”
Yu Minmin pushed him away with annoyance. She was fuming mad, “Let go of me!”
“I’m sorry.” Gu Jingming grabbed Yu Minmin’s arm and looked at her, “I did not do it intentionally.”
Yu Minmin knew that his apology was sincere but his expression still appeared to be cold and aloof. He was not good at expressing his sincere look.
Yu Minmin turned her face to the other side. “It doesn’t matter whether you did it intentionally. Let go of me! I can walk on my own!”
“Minmin!” Gu Jingming called out her name and gazed at her, “Don’t reject me, okay?”
Yu Minmin looked at him. “I’m sorry I’m not your puppet. I’m a human, and humans know how to reject something and not just listen blindly to your commands.”
Gu Jingming’s expression twitched and his gaze seemed a little different. He was taken aback to hear her say that.
“Minmin, do you always think that you are a puppet? I’m not trying to order you around, I’m just...”
“You are just used to giving orders, I know.” Yu Minmin called out to him and interrupted his words. She got up and patted her clothes to get rid of the soil. She took up the bottle and continued to walk on stubbornly.
Gu Jingming stared at her back and after a long time, he went after her.
Yu Minmin was pulled back by his grip. He grabbed her shoulders such that she would be facing him.
Yu Minmin could not take it any longer. She shouted, “Gu Jingming, that’s enough. I have already said it. I don’t want to be forced to do anything. What do you want? If you really love puppets that much then go and get an inflatable doll. Don’t take it all on me okay?”
After she finished lashing out at him, Yu Minmin saw the tense expression on Gu Jingming’s face. Then, she suddenly remembered the person standing before her was the great President of C Country.
He was the most popular president of C Country in recent years. He held power in his hand to rule over the entire nation. He was always high and mighty in position. Nobody dared to go against him.
Besides them, some people were there to play and sightsee and they noticed the quarrel between them.
Yu Minmin quickly turned her head around. She thought to herself, Was she trying to get herself in trouble? What breaking news that would be if someone saw that the two people who were quarreling turned out to be Gu Jingming and Yu Minmin?
Fortunately, they did not pay much attention to both of them. They had also not realized that the person standing there was Mr. President who appeared on the news every day.
She wanted to retract those words but that was impossible. She knew that he would be able to deal with her as easy as dealing with an ant. But these words have already come out of her mouth.
Perhaps she was getting a little fearless lately. She did not realize that she now had the guts to speak to Gu Jingming in that way.
Meanwhile, Gu Jingming held her hand and lowered his head to look at her. He talked slowly with a deep and sincere voice, “I’m sorry. Did I make you feel like you are an inflatable doll all the time?”
Feeling a little awkward, Yu Minmin lowered her head. “I didn’t mean that...”
Gu Jingming gripped her wrist forcefully. “I command you to tell me your honest thoughts now.”
Yu Minmin raised her head to look at this tall man. She stood before him and he looked as if he was charging forward and that made her feel a little frightened, “Alright, I just felt that the way you control me is like how you treat a doll you like. You hope that I live the way you want but in that way...”
Gu Jingming found it amusing and laughed. Then, he took in a deep breath and gazed at Yu Minmin lovingly, “I’m not, Minmin. In the beginning, I did want to make you mine. I wanted you to only listen to me and not do things that may cause trouble for me. That was because when I first saw you and during the multiple times we interacted thereafter and the few times before we got married, I felt that you are a very firm person, very independent, and you want to live your life the way you want.”
