Jiang Yu stood under the long corridor, his long black hair loosely draped over his back. He rested his chin on one hand, gazing at the emerald green lake.
Yun Li quietly walked up behind him, picked up the hair tie she had prepared earlier, and gently tied up his long, smooth, black hair.
"Brother, don't move around, you'll hurt yourself," Yun Li said cautiously.
Jiang Yu froze, waiting for the other person to finish tying their hair. "Are you done?"
"Alright..."
Yun Li withdrew his hand and sat down beside him... The two looked at the river and neither spoke first. Jiang Yu tugged at his sleeve and couldn't help but glance at Yun Li's face, just as their eyes met.
He hurriedly looked away, but the other person's hands held his face, turning him towards them...
"Brother... look at me... I have something I want to say."
Jiang Yu coughed lightly, suppressing the words she wanted to say, and stared intently at the other person.
"Brother... I know I'm younger than you, and I know we haven't known each other for very long, but before I came to the cabin, I was only interested in you and only wanted to be interested in you. At first, I was worried that you wouldn't like me... that you would push me away..."
Yun Li tightened her grip on his face, moving closer to him, her voice firm, "But... brother, you didn't push me away, so you like me too, right?"
Just as Jiang Yu opened his mouth slightly to speak, the other person gently covered his mouth again. Yun Li blushed and was slightly nervous, but his hand covering the other person's mouth remained steady. He felt a soft touch in his palm, and his Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed. "Brother, if... if you like me too, then just nod... you don't need to say anything. If you refuse, then just shake your head."
After saying this, Yun Li withdrew his hand, closed his eyes, as if awaiting the judge's answer.
Jiang Yu covered his mouth and couldn't help but laugh out loud. He reached out and touched the other person's tense eyes.
Yun Li seemed to realize then that he had just told the other person not to speak.
As the other person's features gradually became clearer, the light in Jiang Yu's eyes grew stronger. She smiled and nodded gently, then, as if afraid the other person wouldn't see her, she nodded more forcefully.
The lake breeze outside the corridor stirred the water, creating ripples that spread from the depths of my heart and eventually filled my entire being.
[Aaaaaaah!!!]
Congratulations!
Seeing them together makes me happy, makes me feel blessed.
[So why won't you let Jiangjiang speak! (angry)]
[I can't take it anymore, I'm afraid of ruining the mood, hahaha]
After much persuasion, the couple managed to stay together peacefully.
[I was just heartbroken because of Shengsheng, but seeing them together makes me feel better. I'm going to go and watch the other people's live streams!]
Wen He lay listlessly on the stone table, her stomach rumbling with hunger.
Grandpa Ji anxiously rushed into the kitchen, watching the chef prepare the dishes. His cane tapped repeatedly on the ground as he complained, "Oh dear, don't forget to add some nourishing herbs to this soup!"
Butler Liu, supporting his hand, spoke in a steady voice that was particularly clear in the busy kitchen, "Master, why don't you go out? It's too hot in here. Go outside and get some fresh air. It'll be a while before the young master and the others return."
"Dessert, don't forget the dessert, Xiao He loves sweets."
"Knew..."
The chef nodded, his hands never stopping.
"Once these dishes are cooked, take them to that brat's yard so Xiao He can get some nourishment; look how thin he is..."
Grandpa Ji, leaning on his cane, sat back down on the sofa. Wen He's live stream was playing on the big screen.
"That brat! Why isn't he here yet? Oh dear, it's so hot, don't let our Xiao He get sunburned. Go tell the kitchen to make some more cooling mung bean soup."
Grandpa Ji pointed to the kitchen with concern and asked Butler Liu to add another dish.
The temperature wasn't high today. At midday, Wen He sat under the shade of a tree, and a cool breeze would occasionally blow to cool him down, which actually made him feel a little sleepy.
My eyelids drooped up and down, becoming heavier and heavier, until finally they gently closed together.
[What does Dog Ji Chi need? Why hasn't he come over yet? Is he just leaving us hanging?]
[I'm fucking furious! What does this jerk Ji Chi mean? Why did he make Xiao He wait so long?!]
[That's just how men are; once they get something, they don't cherish it anymore. (knife)(knife)]
[I've been waiting with Xiao He for almost ten minutes now, Ji Chi. If you don't come soon, I'm driving over and taking Xiao He home with me.]
[I'm not going to win. My house is only ten minutes away. I'm driving there right now to snatch Xiao He. You stinky Ji Chi, you don't deserve it!!!]
In the blink of an eye, a figure slowly stepped out of a car in the distance. The camera panned over, and what immediately caught the eye was not the person's nonchalant gait, but the red roses he was holding, adorned with white pearls for added brilliance.
But what's most eye-catching isn't the red rose or the white pearl, but the RMB hidden inside the rose.
[Leopard, I was wrong, can I have one?]
[If you give me these flowers, then I forgive you. It's only ten minutes; I can wait.]
[Ten minutes? My baby has been held for ten minutes! Aren't your arms tired? Let me hold him for you?]
[The abacus beads hit my face!]
[This is what the audience looks like, hahaha, I can't stop laughing.]
[Such double standards! I love it! I want to be Xiao He's soul!]
Ji Chi his pace and walked gently to the stone table. He placed the flowers in his hand on the table and, imitating the other person, gently lay down on the stone surface. Their heads were close together, and he closed his eyes to gently feel the other person's breath.
A faint scent of roses wafted into his lungs. Wen He pouted and gently raised his head; maintaining the same posture for so long had made his neck ache.
Ji Chi reacted quickly, supporting the other person's neck and asking gently, "Awake?"
"It's all your fault... you were too slow."
Wen He followed his words and quietly complained about the other person.
All the irritability from just waking up was vented on the other person.
"Hmm... it's my fault."
Ji Chi smiled and pushed the flowers in front of him. Besides the RMB, there was also a white box stuck in the flowers.
The earlier agitation gradually disappeared with the other person's actions. Wen He smiled, sat up straight, and accepted the bouquet from the other person with both hands. She picked up the white box inside and asked, "What's this?"
"A little gift~", Ji Chi said with a rising tone, reaching out to rub his cheeks that had been pressed red.
Wen He excitedly pried open the small box, revealing a brand new mobile phone inside.
"My phone!" Wen He looked at Ji Chi, but it quickly faded. "But my phone isn't broken, it still works!"
"Use this one, it's a matching couple's phone with mine!" Ji Chi took the phone and turned it on; the screen saver was a photo of the two of them. "I've already downloaded all the apps for you, just insert the SIM card."
When the words "couple's style" came out, Wen He couldn't hold back her smile. Her two small dimples were like deep whirlpools, almost sucking Ji Chi's heart in.
"Do you like it? There's one more thing..." Ji Chi gazed tenderly into the other's bright eyes, his fingertips moving from his face to his pink earlobe, gently kneading it with his fingertips.
He took the small box out of his suit pocket; the red velvet exterior complemented the square shape of the box.
Ji Chi opened it, and inside was a deep red dove earring.
