He accidentally bumped into the witch while flying on his sword.

"I know, but girls are just afraid of these kinds of scenes."

Li Mei shrank back, trying her best to appear weak and vulnerable.

"The popcorn spilled..." She accidentally stepped on a piece of popcorn that had fallen, making a soft crunching sound under her foot.

"Eat this first, and when you're done, pick it up and put it in here."

Xiao Bai took out the egg waffles that Chen Shun had bought for them, took them out of the paper bag, cut them in half along the thin, crispy center, and handed one half to Li Mei.

She picked it up with both hands, took it, and nibbled on it.

Little White is sharing his food with himself!

It seems that this is not bad.

The sound system in the theater emitted a piercing scream once again, and the screen showed terrifying images once more.

Li Mei quickly closed her eyes, hunched her head, and held the half-eaten egg waffle up in front of her to block her view.

Xiao Bai, standing beside her, seemed lost in thought.

"For someone with this level of strength, one imperial edict might not be enough..."

He's still thinking about this!

Can't you see how scared you are?

Li Mei moved the egg waffle aside, secretly peeking out with one eye. Only after seeing that the scene had changed did she feel relieved and continue to nibble at it.

After they finished eating, they unlocked their phones, turned down the brightness, and placed them on the armrests of their seats.

Using the dim light, the two bent down and began to pick up the spilled popcorn.

Fortunately, the popcorn sold here is quite large, making it easy to pick up. In no time, I had collected all the popcorn in sight into the paper bag.

At this moment, Li Mei noticed that there was also a piece of popcorn rolled down on the inside side of Xiao Bai's seat, on her side.

She lowered her body again, stretched out her arm, and reached hard under Xiaobai's seat.

In this position, she couldn't see what was happening with her hands; she could only rely on her senses and slowly explore.

I touched it!

Li Mei's face lit up with joy, but then she felt something was off about the texture, so she gently squeezed it.

There was no soft touch; instead, it was all hard bone.

She turned her head in surprise.

Little White was looking at him with a surprised expression.

Their heads were very close together; if they were just a little closer, their foreheads would touch.

Li Mei could even vaguely see her own reflection in his eyes.

She tried to hook his finger, and Xiaobai's eyes flickered, unsure how to react.

"Then...you pick it up." Xiaobai pulled her hand away as if trying to escape and sat up straight.

Li Mei chuckled to herself, flicked her arm, picked up the popcorn, and put it into the paper bag that Xiao Bai had opened.

Recalling the sensation she had just experienced, Li Mei couldn't help but feel like humming a little tune.

Although the plan went wrong, by sheer chance, she still managed to hook his finger.

Judging from his somewhat embarrassed look, I wonder what he's thinking right now?

Could they also be itching to do something?

Li Mei felt that she had achieved her goal for the day, and then she quieted down.

Haste makes waste; progress must be gradual.

However, when she encountered those terrifying and horrifying scenes, she still couldn't help but lean towards Xiaobai, and even nervously gripped his arm tightly.

……

……

Yun Yi, who was sullen because Chen Shun had stolen his egg waffles, finally sat down contentedly after snatching Chen Shun's waffles and biting off the same piece.

Before long, he was laughing so hard at the movie that he was twisting and turning in his seat.

As for wanting to secretly make advances towards Chen Shun in the theater, she could only endure it because Xiao Di was nearby.

Lin Xiaodi was the one who was most focused on watching the movie.

I laughed so hard I forgot to chew what was in my mouth.

Because the two groups watched movies of different genres, their facial expressions diverged when they met in the rest area after the movie ended.

Yunyi and Xiaodi were still chatting about the plot, laughing foolishly from time to time, while Li Mei was tugging at Xiaobai's clothes, her face looking rather unpleasant.

Although the distance between him and Xiaobai has indeed been shortened considerably, the price paid has been heavy.

I'm afraid she won't dare to sleep with the lights off for the next few days.

"By the way, where are we going to go next?" Chen Shun asked.

"I...I want to go for a walk in the park and get some fresh air," Li Mei suggested tentatively.

No one else objected, and they left the mall and went to the park next to the moat.

There weren't many people in the park; most of them were children playing around.

Winter was fast approaching, and Chen Shun looked around. The wooden paths in the park were covered with fallen leaves, golden yellow, which crunched underfoot.

As for why he knew this, it was because Yun Yi was holding his arms outstretched, happily stepping on the fallen leaves.

Li Mei's complexion improved considerably upon arriving in this environment, as she watched Yun Yi circle around the four of them.

Xiao Bai walked to Chen Shun's side and sighed:

"This place reminds me of Mount Buluo and Mount Zhiyun."

The mountain path, the stone trail leading to the outside world—this must be the scene at this moment, right?

They used to frolic on paths like these.

Chen Shun looked up at the withered leaf hanging on the treetop in front of him, seemingly about to fall.

A thought crossed his mind, and he pointed to the leaf and asked:

"Little White, can you reach that leaf?"

"Maybe...?" Xiaobai glanced around, changing her tone from certain to uncertain: "What if I take it off?"

"You've taken it off, so what's the point of doing anything else?" Chen Shun shrugged.

"Then I won't pick them."

"Can't you pick it?"

"!"

Little White rolled up his sleeves, took a few short running steps, and leaped down to pluck the dead leaves from the treetop.

He twirled the leaf stalk, proudly showing it off to Chen Shun.

"Look, I've picked it!"

"Well, you're pretty good then." Chen Shun shrugged.

"Shun-ge'er, you can't pick them yourself, can you?"

"Bullshit! Have you forgotten who took you to raid bird nests when you were a kid?"

"Why don't you pick one and try it?"

"Fine, let's pick them!"

Chen Shun rolled up his sleeves.

Three women stood side by side, speechlessly watching the two fools who jumped up to touch the leaves.

"Men are so childish..." Li Mei murmured.

Yunyi and Xiaodi quickly nodded in agreement.

But isn't that exactly the kind of immature boy they like?

"There seems to be a wooden boat over there." Xiao Di tiptoed, leaned over the railing, and peered into the water.

"where?"

"where?"

Li Mei and Yun Yi immediately ran to Xiao Di's side.

They were already imagining themselves paddling and playing in the water with their loved ones.

"It looks like no one is watching over it; it doesn't look like a cruise ship."

Following the direction Xiao Di pointed, a somewhat old wooden boat came into view.

Although somewhat tempted, Li Mei and Xiao Di remained rational. They weren't very good swimmers to begin with, so they naturally didn't dare to take the risk.

Especially in this kind of weather, although the body doesn't feel very cold, the river water is actually quite icy.

.

If someone actually falls into the water while playing, it's no joke.

"Yiyi, let's forget about it... it's too dangerous." Xiaodi took a few steps back.

She's so small, if she falls into the water, even in shallow water, she'll probably drown, right?

“Yes, Yiyi, although I really want to go boating... but if it's a cruise ship, then forget it, this one is obviously abandoned…” After thinking it over, Li Mei also chose to give up.

"Alright, then we won't go boating. But you two mustn't let Chen Shun and Xiao Bai see us. If they do, I'm afraid..."

He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"What do you see?" Chen Shun suddenly appeared beside Yun Yi, leaning over the railing and looking around.

He had a small stack of dried maple leaves in his hand, it was hard to tell whether they had just been plucked from the tree or picked up from the ground.

Boys seem to really like picking leaves?
