Never Late, Never Away Chapter 937
That would also appear more sincere.
Meanwhile, Vivian and Finnick were indeed having a whale of a time.
It was their first day here, and they went to a place that resembled a temple. Over there, they met a fortune-teller.
Usually, Vivian wouldn’t pay fortune-tellers by the street any mind, but this one was indeed special.
There were a few sizeable words written on the stall above him that read: On my word of honor, no payment is needed if my fortune-telling isn’t accurate.
The second part of the utterance was cliche, but the first half sounded rather severe.
As her curiosity peaked, Vivian wanted to go and get her fortune told.
Finnick, however, was averse to such superstition. He only believed in hard work and resolve in the attainment of success. Thus, he wanted to pull Vivian away. But upon noticing her brimming curiosity, he relented.
Vivian stepped forward so that the fortune-teller could take a look at her hand, while Finnick kept a close eye on them at the side. The fortune-teller was a middle-aged man, and Finnick refused to allow him to touch Vivian’s hand, so he could only look at her palm and countenance before giving his verdict.
After listening to him, the two of them nodded and paid him. Then, they decided to return to the inn.
They had come out at noon, and it was now evening after they had seen the sights. Nevertheless, they didn’t plan to stay out late since they were unfamiliar with this place.
“What should we do tomorrow, Finnick?” Vivian was a tad drowsy now, so her eyes felt rather heavy as she gazed at Finnick.
“We’ll stay in bed for the entire day tomorrow.”
“What?”
Vivian stood there in a trance after hearing that, then followed him in.
When they returned to the inn, they went to the dining room to eat. However, a wave of helplessness inundated Vivian at the sight of the food available in the dining room.
The selection before her was very simple. There wasn’t any fish or meat. Instead, vegetables made up the entire fare.
Hence, she was rather hesitant as to whether they should be eating here. But on second thought, she was too lazy to wander around anymore, so she decided to just make do.
Surprisingly, when the food was later served, the taste far exceeded her expectations. Even the food that was usually served in restaurants paled in comparison to this.
