On the first day Lin Ru moved to the mountain, her doorway was piled high with rare fruits and delicious mushrooms, all decorated with a bow that was positively girlish.
On the second day after Lin Ru moved to the mountain, several large baskets of gold, silver, and uncut gemstones were left outside her door, glittering so brightly they nearly blinded her.
On the third day after Lin Ru moved to the mountain, she was ready to lie in wait early that morning. The moment she heard a noise, she flung open the door.
But this time, a red prayer cord was tied to her doorway. Hanging from the end of the cord, which passed through a tree branch, was the wish slip she had once hung beneath a hundred-year-old tree of destined marriages on a whim--
"May I have peace, good fortune, a long life, and a fortune without having to grow old alone. P.S. God..."
Before she could finish reading, a red thread suddenly drifted down onto her fingertips. The handsome young man, caught by surprise, wore prayer cords all over his head. He bashfully peeked out from amid the lush green branches, the tips of his ears red and his lovely eyes fixed on her.
"Are you... happy?"
His face was full of shyness. "I-I sealed the deal... So, could you be my wife?"
She stood there dumbfounded, her mind a blur. Then she happened to glance at the little note she'd written beneath the wish slip all those years ago.
"God, please send me a guy who's handsome, rich, and ridiculously fit, devoted to his wife, willing to do all the housework, hardworking, obedient, ambitious, and such a lovesick homebody that he'll fall for me all on his own. (〃▽〃 ) Hehe, just thinking about it makes me happy. I promise I'll treat him so well, mmm, love you, love you, please, please, bless me, I'll get down on my knees, mwah mwah mwah~
--From your sincere believer, the universe's cutest, prettiest, luckiest, most amazing girl, Lin Ruzi ^o^~"
At the very bottom, two crookedly written words read, "Pinky promise~" There was also a little paw print of her own.
Lin Ru: ...
Seriously, was I that shameless back then?
Wait!!!
You signed and sealed it, and you actually meant it...
--
Zhaosui was the mountain god's son, and the young man who had been thinking of her for many years.
He had thought he would never see her again.
Until Lin Ru set foot in the mountains once more and awakened him again amid the morning dew and mist.
This time, the young man carefully prepared everything, hoping Lin Ru's wishes would come true soon and she would smile again.
His face flushed crimson. With a sincere heart tempered by countless years, he approached her carefully, embraced his precious treasure, and called softly, "Wife..."
Before meeting Lin Ru, he was the mountain's mornings and evenings, and thought himself cold and dull.
After meeting Lin Ru, she was a spirit of the human world, bringing vibrant life to every season.
