A Little Story After the Rain: Fog

But the next moment, Kiana suddenly spun around and launched herself into a flying back kick at Su Moqian.

"Take this!"

Kiana tried to catch him off guard again, but how could Su Moqian fall for the same trick twice?

He swiftly avoided the force of Kiana's leg, then caught it with both hands.

However, just as Su Moqian instinctively tried to throw her away, he seemed to think of something and suddenly stopped.

Kiana quickly seized the opportunity and bit down on Su Moqian's arm.

Su Moqian's expression changed, and he immediately let go of Kiana.

"Wait, I said you could do whatever you wanted, but I didn't mean this!"

"Hehe, this time, this young lady still came out on top!"

After escaping, Kiana laughed smugly.

"Fine, fine, you win."

Su Moqian rubbed his arm and nodded helplessly.

He had already intended to let her win one move, but this little bug could actually bite people. That had truly been beyond his expectations.

After rolling up his sleeve, he could clearly see a bite mark on his forearm.

At this moment, Kiana also realized that she had used too much force in her panic, so she quickly pressed her palms together and apologized:

"Sorry, Moqian. I accidentally used too much force just now. Let me take a look at the wound."

As she spoke, Kiana leaned over, took hold of Su Moqian's arm, and began examining it.

Seeing how serious Kiana looked, Su Moqian asked in surprise:

"Kiana, do you know medicine?"

Kiana gently shook her head. "It doesn't really count as medicine. It's just something I learned from spending so much time living outdoors."

As she spoke, Kiana stuck out her tender pink tongue and licked the wound.

"Hey, Kiana, what are you doing?"

Su Moqian instinctively tried to pull his arm back, but Kiana held it tightly, leaving him unable to move.

"The bite isn't serious, so you don't need medicine. Just lick it and it'll be fine. My dad taught me this." Kiana replied without looking up.

Hearing this, Su Moqian's expression turned strange.

Although he knew this really was effective, it still felt rather odd.

After all, men and women were different. Wasn't this a little inappropriate? Even if it really needed licking, shouldn't he be the one to do it?

Wait, there was still Kiana's saliva on the bite mark. Wouldn't it be even stranger if he licked it himself?!

After thinking it over, Su Moqian decided to stop struggling and simply let her continue.

Before they knew it, a light drizzle suddenly began falling from the sky.

Feeling the coolness of the raindrops, Kiana raised her head, looking puzzled.

"Why did it suddenly start raining?"

Su Moqian nodded. "Luckily, it's only a light rain. We can keep walking back."

The moment he finished speaking, the light drizzle intensified. Fine, dense strands of rain began to fall without end.

Su Moqian: "..."

At this point, Kiana seemed to sense that the rain would only grow heavier, so she suggested:

"My house isn't far from here. Let's run back."

Su Moqian nodded. "All right. I'll stay at your place for a while, then head back once the rain stops."

Kiana smiled. "No problem. My house is pretty big, so you can stay as long as you like."

Wait, hold on. Wasn't Qian Yun a huge Mei fan?

Chapter 49: A Little Story After the Rain: Fog

The sudden downpour caught the pedestrians on the road completely off guard.

At this moment, a man and a woman whose clothes were completely soaked were running down the street.

"Kiana, the rain's getting heavier! We need to move faster!"

"Of course I know that!"

By the time they reached Kiana's front door, the rainwater dripping from their bodies had even formed a trail on the stairs.

"Seriously, why did it suddenly start raining so heavily? There wasn't any warning at all."

After opening the door, Kiana couldn't help complaining.

Tonight should have been a very happy occasion, but she had never expected them to be caught in such a heavy downpour.

Following Kiana into the room, Su Moqian smiled.

"All right, go take a shower first. I don't mind having been out in the rain this long, but it'd be bad if you caught a cold."

"What do you mean, you don't mind? Don't keep wearing those wet clothes. I'll find you something to wear first."

Kiana puffed out her cheeks, clearly dissatisfied with what Su Moqian had just said.

Hearing this, Su Moqian's expression changed, and he hurriedly said:

"No way! I'm not wearing women's clothes. I'd rather keep wearing wet clothes forever!"

Seeing his expression, Kiana burst out laughing and turned around.

"What are you thinking? Why would I make you wear a little skirt? I have ordinary hoodies that either men or women can wear."

Hearing that Kiana was going to get him a hoodie, Su Moqian's expression relaxed.

"Then... all right."

Since Kiana had turned around, Su Moqian couldn't help focusing his attention on her.

Kiana's clothes were completely soaked, clinging damply to her skin and highlighting her shapely figure.

Her long white hair was wet as well. Combined with the young lady's refined bearing she had whenever she was silent, she looked exactly like a beauty with wet hair.

After accidentally taking a glance, Su Moqian hurriedly turned his head away, afraid that Kiana might suddenly explode.

Kiana, however, didn't seem to pay much attention to his gaze and simply returned to her room to look for clothes.

Soon, after bringing Su Moqian two gender-neutral outfits and a towel, she went into the bathroom first to take a shower.

As the sound of running water came from the bathroom, Su Moqian, sitting in the living room, inexplicably felt as though he wanted to dig in and eat.

But he quickly shook his head, took out his phone, and prepared to call Bronya at home to let her know.

"Beep—"

The phone rang only once before it was quickly answered.

"Hello, you've reached the Su household."

Hearing that familiar female voice, Su Moqian looked puzzled and asked:

"Mei? Why are you at my house?"

"Ah, it's Moqian!" Mei's voice carried a hint of pleasant surprise.

But she quickly suppressed it, then put on the same indignant tone she had used during the day.

"I had something I wanted to discuss with you, so I came to your house. But I didn't expect you not to be there. There's only a little girl at home."

Standing in front of the landline, Mei glanced at Bronya on the sofa as she spoke.

"I see. I'm at a friend's place taking shelter from the rain right now. I might not come back until it stops."

Hearing Su Moqian's voice, Mei nodded, then said:

"It's already past seven. If the rain doesn't stop, you can stay at your friend's place for the night."

"It's already dark, and it's raining too. It wouldn't be good if something happened to you."

Raiden Mei's words were filled with concern.

"Uh... we'll see. All right, then."

After hanging up, Su Moqian quietly waited.

However, to his surprise, the sound of water from the bathroom stopped after only a short while.

The bathroom door opened, and a young woman's jade-white feet stepped out first.

A moment later, a beautiful white-haired woman wrapped in a bath towel emerged from the misty bathroom, droplets of water still clinging to her snow-white skin.

The scene looked like a painting of a beauty emerging from her bath.

"Moqian, this young lady's done! You should go in too!"

However, the instant Kiana opened her mouth, all the beauty of the scene vanished.

Looking at Kiana wrapped in a bath towel, Su Moqian turned his gaze aside and said:

"I didn't expect you to shower so quickly."

In his impression, girls took a long time to shower. Supposedly, that was because they liked playing with bubbles in the bathtub.

"Hehe, I was quick, right? I did it so I wouldn't keep you waiting." Kiana smiled.

Looking at Kiana like this, Su Moqian felt a warmth in his heart.

Who would have thought this idiot was actually considerate?

"Then I thank our young lady Kiana. I'll go wash up first."

As he spoke, Su Moqian picked up the hoodie and athletic shorts Kiana had prepared for him and entered the bathroom.

Since he was at someone else's house, Su Moqian felt too embarrassed to take a long shower. He simply rinsed himself off, changed his clothes, and came out.

After leaving the bathroom, Su Moqian could smell the young girl's fragrance clinging to the clothes, and he still wasn't used to it.

To be honest, he felt embarrassed wearing Kiana's clothes.

But he was at her house, and it wasn't as if he could go without clothes, so he had no other choice.

"You're out." Kiana, sitting on the sofa, greeted him.

"Mm."

Su Moqian nodded lightly, then looked around Kiana's room.

Just as she had said, the house was indeed quite large.

But since only one person lived there, it seemed rather empty.

Seeing this, Su Moqian couldn't help asking with concern:

"Kiana, don't you feel scared living alone?"

"Huh? What's there to be scared of?" Kiana patted her chest and said proudly:

"I, Kiana Kaslana, am a woman who has walked across the Eurasian continent on foot! There's nothing in this world that can scare me!"

Seeing Kiana's smug expression, Su Moqian pondered for a moment before asking:

"Then, are you afraid of spiders?"

Kiana's expression froze. "...Anything but spiders!"

Su Moqian: "What about centipedes?"

Kiana: "...Anything but centipedes!"

"Then..."

Su Moqian was about to give a few more examples, but Kiana quickly cut him off.

"Moqian, shut up! Don't say anything else, aahhh!"
