The white rose I picked up cried and said she liked me.

"Little Creek! What are you doing?"

Xu Nian sat up abruptly, taking a few steps back in alarm.

He had seen it on TV; kissing on the lips was something only lovers or married couples did.

Xu Xi stood there, stunned, her mind blank.

She never expected that Xu Nian would wake up at this time.

It's infuriating! You don't wake up when I shake you, and you don't wake up when I wipe your body.

You woke up when it was time to collect taxes?

Should we just be honest with each other?

No...no!

Judging from his reaction, he definitely doesn't have any feelings for me yet.

Xu Xi knew that confessing her love was not a battle cry, but a triumphant song of victory.

We need to find a way to explain the past.

What should I do? What should I do?

You can't exactly say, "Your lips are a little cold, let me warm them up for you," can you?

Hurry! Think of a solution!

Xu Xi's gaze fell on the water bottle beside her.

"Brother...brother! You've been swimming in the sea for so long, and you fell asleep as soon as you got ashore without even having a sip of water. I...I was going to give you some water..."

"You're talking nonsense! Do you need to kiss to drink water?"

"Of course I used it!"

Xu Xi quickly unscrewed the bottle cap, tilted her fair neck back, took a sip, and held it in her mouth.

Then, she took a running start and leaped onto Xu Nian, kissing his lips amidst his horrified gaze.

Then, a stream of mineral water, warmed by the girl's body temperature, flowed into Xu Nian's throat.

"Silly brother! You're asleep, so this is the only way I can give you water!"

Xu Xi put on a sullen face, put her hands on her hips, and pouted as she spoke.

"When my brother used to get drunk and had a cold, he would sleep for most of the day, and I always had to feed him water, right?"

"Not only is my brother ungrateful, but he's also being mean to Xiaoxi!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian was stunned.

He licked his lips and realized that he was incredibly thirsty, his mouth feeling as dry as a desert.

The tiny sip of water I just drank was nothing more than a drizzle.

No wonder I didn't feel thirsty at all when I woke up after getting drunk that day and after fainting from a fever.

It turns out the stream was helping me drink water.

For a moment, Xu Nian felt somewhat ashamed.

He noticed that because of his shout, many tourists around him were casting curious glances at them.

Especially Xiaoxi, who was still wet and hadn't even had time to change out of her swimsuit, came to feed her water because she was worried about being thirsty.

Xu Nian's face showed even deeper guilt.

"I'm sorry... Xiaoxi, I didn't know..."

The plan worked!

If a little person lived inside Xu Xi's heart, that little person would surely be clapping their hands and jumping three feet high.

Xu Xi still pouted, her pretty face full of grievances.

She knew that if she softened immediately, it would prove that she had something to hide.

To convince Xu Nian completely, Xu Xi decided to ignore him for a while.

Xu Xi hummed softly, turned her little head away, and squatted down on the beach.

Let me be stingy for thirty minutes first.

Well, since I was the one who ate first, fifteen minutes it will be.

Xu Nian awkwardly touched the back of her neck and squatted down next to Xu Xi.

"Little Creek...don't be angry, your brother apologizes."

Take the initiative to apologize, about ten minutes.

"I'll make dumplings for you when we get home tonight."

Something delicious is here! (Five minutes)

Seeing that Xu Xi still refused to forgive her, Xu Nian was so anxious that she scratched her head and cheeks.

Damn it, making his sister, who cares about him, lose face in front of so many people.

Xu Nian felt incredibly guilty.

But he had never been coaxed before, so he had no idea how to coax an angry girl.

"Little stream, you must be thirsty too. Would you like some water?"

He took the bottle of mineral water from earlier and nudged Xu Xi's arm.

Logically speaking, Xu Xi had been swimming in the sea for a long time, so she should be just as thirsty as I was.

My brother is concerned about me! Just for a minute.

Xu Xi licked her dry tongue.

Okay, I'm really thirsty, 30 seconds it will be.

Thirty seconds later, she pretended to forgive her brother and took the bottled water from his hand to drink.

Xu Xi silently counted down 30 seconds in her mind.

29..28..27..

15..14..13..

I heard the sound of a bottle cap being unscrewed and the sound of a plastic bottle being squeezed beside me.

9..8..7..6..

A dark shadow loomed over her.

3..2..1..

Well! ! !

Under Xu Xi's shocked gaze, her small face was gently lifted up, and Xu Nian kissed her thin lips.

Immediately afterwards, the warm mineral water flowed over my lips and teeth, across my tongue, transforming into a clear oasis spring in the desert.

"Gulp!"

His throat bobbed up and down, swallowing every last drop of the trickling water.

Xu Xi's eyes widened, and she could no longer contain her excitement, hugging her brother's chest tightly.

Xu Nian didn't know why he closed his eyes; it seemed to be some kind of instinct ingrained in his bones, prompting him to enjoy this wonderful feeling.

For a moment, he wished time could stand still and make this moment eternal.

"Damn it! You lured the dog in here to kill it, didn't you?"

"I'm speechless! Weren't there supposed to be couples arguing and breaking up? They're kissing like this! Tell me, what kind of breakup is this?"

"Who was it who said there was some juicy gossip? Come out here! You tricked me into eating a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)! I'm going to drag you out and shoot you!"

The onlookers dispersed, gritting their teeth, their faces filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

I don't know how much time passed, maybe a minute, two minutes, or five minutes?

Only when Xu Xi was almost out of breath did she reluctantly let go of the boy's arms.

"Cough cough cough..."

The moment their lips parted, a persistent coughing sound followed.

Xu Nian felt like she was suffocating, her face turning bright red.

At first, he was able to maintain even breathing.

Just as he was about to shut off the sluice gate after the stream in the river had dried up, a tabby cat from the jungle bit the switch, and then a small water snake swam in.

From that moment on, his ingrained instincts compelled him to hold his breath.

My mind went blank, completely overwhelmed by a strange impulse.

Suddenly, Xu Nian wanted to experience that magical feeling again.

But he suppressed his impulse and said with remorse.

"Xiaoxi... I'm sorry, please don't be angry."

"elder brother..."

Xu Xi touched her burning hot face, still not quite recovered from the thrill of reaching the top of the roller coaster.

What?! Xu Nian actually kissed me!

And he was kissing his own little lips!

Good heavens, my plan actually yielded an unexpected result!

Or... how about reaping even more rewards?

"Waaaah... Brother, you're such a dummy! You're such an idiot! You're such a bad person! Xiaoxi won't forgive you, brother! Unless you kiss Xiaoxi again!"

"But... we've already drunk all the water we brought..."

Xu Nian scratched his head and awkwardly held up the empty mineral water bottle.

"If I don't feed him water, kissing isn't something we can do together..."

"Hmph! Then I won't forgive my brother!"

"Huh? No way... Xiaoxi, let's change the terms!"

"Hmm...then every night before bed, you should give Xiaoxi a sip of water."

"This...isn't that unnecessary? Wouldn't it be faster to just drink it directly?"

"Hey hey hey hey! Little Creek, stop tickling me!! I promise you!! I promise you, okay....."
