Chapter 371: May the Years Be Good as We Grow Old Together

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Serenity felt a little embarrassed to eat and drink while the others worked, so she followed Sam and the others to collect firewood.

The firewood-collecting group split into two – Sam and Serenity in one group while Leonard and another colleague formed the other. This way, they could cover more ground.

Serenity had just picked up a piece of dry wood when Sam grabbed it and tossed it. She looked at him in confusion. “What are you doing?”

“There’s a temple at the back of the mountain with a wishing tree by its entrance. This path leads to the back of the mountain. Let’s go take a look,” said Sam.

“Didn’t you say that we’ll go with the others once we’re done with our meal?”

“Are you stupid? Do you want to make a wish in front of so many people?

They’ll probably mock the wish and fool around.”

“But…” Everyone was waiting. It wasn’t good for them to sneak to the back mountain first. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝑚

Sam knew what she was going to say. “Don’t dawdle.”

“Give me your phone. 1’11 make a call.” She spread the fingers of her hand.

Gabriel was keeping her phone which contained her phone so Sam’s phone was the only way she could call Gabriel so that he wouldn’t be worried.

Sam muttered something about how troublesome women can be as he took out his phone and placed it in her hand. The phone did not have a password so Serenity easily unlocked it and entered Gabriel’s number. Before she could make the call, the screen suddenly turned black.

“What’s going on?” She pressed the power button, but there was no response.

Sam took the phone and pressed the power button too. But even after doing so for a minute, the screen remained black. He shrugged. “I must have forgotten to charge it last night.”

He had had too much fun yesterday until he forgot to charge his phone before going to bed. Although he brought the power bank, it was in his backpack with the others.

“Let’s go back.” Serenity was now even more hesitant to go to the temple without the others and Sam could tell. But he pulled her towards the fork in the south anyway. “You’re not even married yet and you’re already reporting your whereabouts. Once you get married, you won’t have any freedom at all.”

It took them less than twenty minutes to walk to the temple. Sam and Serenity arrived at the staircase outside the main entrance. On the left was a thick wishing tree with luxuriant branches and leaves as well as a red wishing note tied to it.

The two first went to the temple to burn incense and pay homage to the Buddha statue before donating incense money and collecting their wish paper.

Serenity thought about it for a long time before writing her wish. Her wishes in the past had always been very simple: to marry John after graduation. Now, her wish was for her child to be healthy and safe, and for her and Gabriel to be happy for the rest of their lives.

After thinking for a long time, she picked up the pen and wrote down ten words, “May the years be good as we grow old together.”

When Sam looked over, she turned to glare at him. He chuckled. “1 didn’t see anything.”

The two walked through the green bamboo stairs under the tree and tied their wishes to the nearest branch.

Serenity took a peek at Sam carefully tying his wish stick to the tree branch. His usual mischievousness had disappeared, replaced by a rather solemn look.

“Isn’t this just to give us peace of mind? There’s no guarantee the wishing tree works so don’t get your hopes up and pin all your hopes on this.”

“If you’re sincere, it’ll work,” said Sam. free webno vel

Serenity smiled, still not fully believing in such gestures. She was here only to accompany Sam.. “Is your wish to eat all the delicacies in the world and become a great photographer?”
