"Moqian, I want to know, how do you see me?"

"How I see you?" Su Moqian asked, a little confused.

"Why the sudden question?"

"That's not important, I just want to know the answer," Kiana said firmly.

Seeing Kiana's determined expression, the question that had been weighing on his heart resurfaced, and Su Moqian couldn't help but get lost in thought.

"How do I actually see Kiana?"

As Su Moqian fell into thought, Kiana's heart grew tense.

She hoped to hear the answer she wanted from him, yet she was also somewhat afraid.

Although she had long grown accustomed to loneliness, after experiencing warmth, she began to fear being alone again.

After becoming friends with Su Moqian, she no longer wanted to return to her old life of wandering alone.

Under her hopeful gaze, Su Moqian spoke with a hint of helplessness.

"To be honest, I don't understand much about matters of the heart. You ask how I see you, but I find it difficult to put into words how I feel about you…"

Su Moqian had pondered this question before, but he hadn't found an answer.

Now that it was suddenly brought up, he struggled to organize his thoughts.

Just then, the beautiful shop assistant from the dessert shop suddenly approached them and said in a gentle voice, "Hello, as this lady's purchase has met our standard, we'd like to gift you a rose~"

Saying this, the shop assistant handed the rose over.

However, even though Kiana was the one who made the purchase, the shop assistant handed the rose to Su Moqian.

The meaning was self-evident.

The moment he took the rose, all the chaotic thoughts in his mind vanished.

Only the choice remained.

Su Moqian looked up and met Kiana's hopeful eyes.

Feeling the light filling her gaze, Su Moqian smiled faintly.

Fine, I'll let my future self worry about everything else. The only important thing now is not to disappoint the girl in front of me.

With this thought, Su Moqian gently offered the rose to Kiana.

"Kiana, this is for you… although it really belongs to you."

Seeing Su Moqian's action, Kiana, who had been looking downcast all day, finally broke into a smile.

"Qian, thank you."

At this moment, both of them finally confirmed their mutual affection.

Looking at Kiana's re-emerged smile, Su Moqian couldn't help but feel that everything he had done was worth it.

Giving a gift was like Tai Chi; it was about the intention, not the form. The heartfelt wish to convey was the most precious gift.

Moreover, this was the first time he had actively expressed his feelings to someone.

Watching the blushing young man and woman, the beautiful shop assistant standing nearby also wore a satisfied smile.

Shop Assistant: "????"

Then, the shop assistant suddenly noticed something and quickly spoke up.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, sir, I served the wrong thing."

Saying this, the shop assistant picked up the Tiramisu in front of Su Moqian and explained, "Apologies, this lady ordered chocolate, and I accidentally brought you bitter coffee. I'll replace it immediately!"

Then, the shop assistant quickly served Su Moqian a new plate of Tiramisu.

Looking at the replaced dessert, Su Moqian picked up his spoon, scooped some up, and put it in his mouth.

The chocolate flavor slowly melted in his mouth. Although there was a slight bitterness at the beginning, a blissful sweetness soon followed.

Sensing the taste in his mouth, Su Moqian smiled and nodded.

"Indeed, this is how it should be."

At this moment, seeing Su Moqian's expression, Kiana curiously asked, "Is it that delicious? Let me have a taste too!"

Saying this, Kiana reached out with her spoon.

However, Su Moqian reacted extremely quickly, snatching up the plate of Tiramisu and thus avoiding Kiana's spoon.

"Trying to steal it? Dream on!" Su Moqian said smugly.

Seeing this, Kiana immediately became anxious and slammed the table.

"Hey, Su Moqian! I'm the one who paid for all of this!"

"Of course I know. Since Miss paid for all of this, I definitely have to do something in return."

Su Moqian smiled, scooped a spoonful of tiramisu, and then put it into Kiana's mouth.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be so sensible!"

With the delicious food in front of her, Kiana didn't think much and opened her mouth to eat.

Watching the scene before her, the beautiful shop assistant couldn't help but say:

"I can't take it anymore, this young couple is just too loving."

With that, unwilling to be a third wheel, she returned to the counter.

Upon hearing the shop assistant's teasing, Su Moqian couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.

However, when he looked at Kiana, there was no change in her expression; she was still immersed in the deliciousness of the dessert.

The amount of brainpower she had used today was equivalent to her entire year's worth, so Kiana had completely given up on thinking.

This love for the present moment touched Su Moqian.

This pure innocence was something he longed for but could never attain.

At this moment, Kiana also noticed Su Moqian staring at her and subconsciously asked:

"Hey, Moqian, what are you looking at?"

Su Moqian snapped back to reality and replied with a smile: "Of course, I'm looking at the incredibly, unbelievably, super-duper cute Kiana."

Hearing this, Kiana furrowed her brow slightly: "Hmm, why does that feel a little strange?"

"Well, it's fine, though. It means I'm the cutest, right?"

As she spoke, Kiana's frown immediately relaxed.

Seeing her silly expression, Su Moqian smiled with satisfaction.

At the same time, he said silently in his heart:

"Kiana, with me here, you can rest assured and continue being silly."

Chapter 48: The Biting Bug

After finishing all the desserts, Su Moqian and Kiana walked out of the dessert shop.

The shop assistant's voice followed them:

"You two lovebirds should come again!~"

Hearing the voice from behind, Su Moqian's mouth twitched, but after thinking about it, he didn't retort.

Just then, Kiana suddenly said to Su Moqian:

"Moqian, can you walk me home? Just me this time."

Su Moqian glanced at Kiana's face and then nodded without hesitation:

"Of course, no problem."

They walked side by side, chatting as they went on their way back.

Since Kiana had returned to her usual self, Su Moqian also enjoyed talking with her.

As they were chatting, Kiana suddenly asked:

"Moqian, have you ever encountered trouble when you help people?"

Because on her journey to the Far East on foot, Kiana had indeed caused a lot of trouble while trying to help people, and had been on edge several times.

Therefore, she couldn't help but ask Su Moqian about his experiences.

"Me? It's alright. The Far East has very strict gun control, so I don't have to worry too much," Su Moqian shrugged.

"The only trouble might be encountering some foul-mouthed thugs. When they confront you, they never lay a hand on you; they just curse you, and they can curse for ten minutes without repeating themselves."

"Ah?" Kiana frowned and asked:

"What do you do then? Curse back?"

"Of course not. I've never liked cursing," Su Moqian shook his head and said calmly:

"Because I'm good with my hands!"

Hearing this, Kiana chuckled and then repeatedly nodded:

"Right, I'm the same way. It seems we're quite alike."

"No, there's still a difference," Su Moqian gently shook his head.

"I don't like to curse because I have good manners, while you don't like to curse because you don't have the words in your brain."

As soon as he said this, Kiana, who had been smiling cheerfully moments ago, immediately puffed up her cheeks in anger:

"Su Moqian! What do you mean? Are you saying I'm uncultured?"

Su Moqian nodded: "Generally speaking, I'm telling the truth."

"Su Moqian, are you looking for a beating again!"

Kiana let out a soft cry before throwing a punch.

Su Moqian instinctively reached out, brushing past Kiana's fist, then grabbed her wrist and guided her.

To his surprise, Kiana's punch was different this time, soft and lacking any force.

Because of this, when Su Moqian applied a little pressure, Kiana stumbled in the direction of her punch.

"Ah!"

Seeing Kiana exclaim in surprise, Su Moqian, startled, quickly stepped forward and caught her body.

The next moment, a soft sensation was transmitted directly.

It was only after holding Kiana that Su Moqian suddenly realized this little bug was quite well-endowed.

The last time they had held each other tightly was during a life-or-death crisis, and he hadn't had time to notice, but this time was different.

Held in Su Moqian's arms, Kiana didn't struggle. She just turned her head, puffed out her cheeks, and said:

"I didn't even use any strength, and you still countered my move."

"Sorry, I didn't expect that either."

Su Moqian awkwardly helped Kiana stand steady, then let go of her and continued, "Actually, you don't need to hold back. You can just be unrestrained like before."

"Really? Then this young lady is going to beat you up?" Kiana asked tentatively.

Hearing this, Su Moqian feigned surprise: "You're really going to hit me? Then I'll hit back."

"Tch, you want to hit back? I'm not fighting anymore, not fighting." With that, Kiana started walking forward.

Seeing her walk ahead, Su Moqian smiled and followed her.
