It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1223

"This place is a bit deserted and poor compared to S City. I bet you don't like it here, right?" Kevin looked up at the sky and thought the air was fresh. Unlike big cities, life in this place was slow and quiet. Staying here was like staying in a paradise which could make people feel very comfortable.

"No. Actually, the place doesn't matter. I'm happy as long as I am with you," responded Leena before looking at the very few and scattered bungalows in the distance. She did not know that there were people living in such houses two hundred kilometers away from the city.

"Let's go!" Contented with her answer, Kevin smiled gratefully and carried all the groceries they brought with them. It was a puzzle to Leena why Kevin shopped for so many goods from the supermarket last night. She got no idea of what he was up to at all.

"Let me help you," said Leena as she reached for some bags Kevin was holding. She wouldn't mind giving him a hand with those heavy bags.

"No. I can handle these." Kevin moved the groceries away from Leena as he refused. They had to climb the hillside before them and he wouldn't want Leena to get tired. It was lucky that she was wearing flat boots today since he didn't think that high heels would make their journey easier.

"Are you sure about that?" With a mischievous stare, Leena turned her head to Kevin's handsome face.

"Yes, I am sure. I don't have the gut to lie to you anyway." The man shook his head at Leena resignedly. In fact, he came here every year and was so used to doing it. Even if he was busy sometimes, he would still find time to come to this place again.

"I know that you dare not lie to me." Leena picked up an unfamiliar grass and waved it in the air like an excited child. She was following Kevin closely and didn't even bother to ask about where Kevin was taking her. She loved Kevin and she just simply wouldn't mind wherever they went.

"You're right. Didn't you say that you were a super-woman? How dare I oppose a super-woman?" Thinking of what she had said, Kevin could not help but make fun of her.

"You bet! How far are we going to walk?" Leena felt that the road was bumpy. She had a struggle to walk, so she asked.

"Well... About half an hour. Are you tired?" Kevin glanced at her. Apparently, the main vehicle in this place was the carriage. Local villagers used carriages to pull goods, so people usually walked.

"Is it a market where we just got off?" Curiosity was all over Leena's face as she asked. She saw a lot of things on sale in that place just now. Although it looked crude there, the goods were of a wide variety.

"Yes. Villagers from dozens of miles around here usually go to that market to buy some groceries and meat." Kevin patiently answered every question she asked.
