The Village Chief's Sexual Harassment Scandal

"You..." Ning Shile seemed to have sensed something. With his face buried against Zheng Ye's neck and shoulder, he asked in a muffled voice, "What are you doing?"

"Nothing." Zheng Ye lifted his head slightly, moving away from the spot he had just kissed.

"...Really?" Ning Shile certainly didn't think he had imagined that, but he didn't press the question. He merely withdrew from Zheng Ye's arms, a little embarrassed.

Ning Shile got up from the ground. His skin was fair to begin with, and with his eyes now red, he looked just like a frightened little rabbit. The village chief checked on him several times, then sent him to the hill behind the village once he was sure Ning Shile was all right.

With a small bamboo basket on his back and a little hoe in hand, Ning Shile searched as he walked.

The weather was cold, so there really weren't many varieties of wild greens on the hill, but there were still some.

He stood on a rock and surveyed the area for a while, finally choosing an apple grove. He walked over and got to work.

Sure enough, there were plenty of wild greens behind the apple trees. Overjoyed, Ning Shile worked away diligently with his little hoe.

[Is everything Ning Shile's digging up edible?]

[Yes, he's only digging up edible stuff, like Shepherd's Purse. We go up into the hills to gather it too.]

[I didn't expect Ning Shile to actually recognize wild greens. I thought he picked gathering greens so he could slack off.]

Ning Shile dug the Shepherd's Purse out of the soil, shook off the dirt, and put it in his little basket.

Within minutes, the bottom of the bamboo basket was covered, leaving Ning Shile with a great sense of accomplishment.
