Looking into my hand, I realized this was it.

"lecher!"

Bai Ruxue's cheeks turned as red as strawberries, and she quickly snatched the bodice from Xiao Mo's palm.

Clutching the bib to her chest, Bai Ruxue ran into the room and slammed the door shut.

“Something’s wrong”

Xiao Mo stared thoughtfully at the girl's tightly closed door.

Like snow, she...

She's actually starting to feel shy?

You know, once before, a piece of clothing blew into Xiao Mo's face, and Ru Xue laughed happily, even wanting to stuff it into Xiao Mo's mouth.

During lunch, Bai Ruxue would take a bite of food and then steal a glance at Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo took the rice bowl and accidentally touched her hand.

Bai Ruxue withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted, looking somewhat dazed. She quickly sat down and started picking at the rice in her bowl.

Xiao Mo and Xiao Qing exchanged a glance, both looking puzzled.

"Brother Xiao, what's wrong with my sister?"

"Find an opportunity for your sister to leave," Xiaoqing asked with some concern.

“I don’t know either,” Xiao Mo shook his head. “Ru Xue has been like this since she woke up this morning.”

Xiaoqing: "."

Well, how should I put it?

If Bai Ruxue were an ordinary woman, Xiao Mo would have thought her behavior today was quite normal.

But Bai Ruxue, who was originally silly, suddenly became ashamed overnight, and even had a shyness like that of someone experiencing first love, which really made Xiao Mo feel very strange.

I'm even a little uncomfortable

That evening, after Xiao Mo finished taking a bath, he found that Bai Ruxue was gone, and only Xiao Qing was feeding silkworms in the yard.

"Xiaoqing, where is your sister?" Xiao Mo asked.

"Brother Xiao, my sister said she's going for a walk outside and will be back in a little while," Xiaoqing said, holding a bowl of mulberry leaves and looking up.

"Hmm." Xiao Mo thought for a moment. "I'll go look for her. Xiao Qing, are you alright staying home alone?"

"Sure." Xiaoqing nodded, a hint of joy even flashing in her eyes.

After Xiao Mo left, Xiao Qing revealed her true form and started looking for food.

Although my sister's cooking is pretty good, I haven't eaten hamsters in a long time, and I really miss them.

As he left the village, Xiao Mo roughly guessed where Bai Ruxue was.

Xiao Mo walked straight towards Sheshan.

as predicted.

On that rock, Xiao Mo saw her, dressed in a white dress, hugging her knees, raising her head, and looking at the stars in the night sky.

"Did something unpleasant happen again?"

Xiao Mo shouted at Bai Ruxue.

Hearing Xiao Mo's voice, Bai Ruxue's delicate body trembled slightly, and she looked away from the air: "No, no."

"Really not?" Xiao Mo walked up to Bai Ruxue.

"There really isn't any this time," Bai Ruxue said softly, her head lowered.

"But you've been acting strange today, and you seem to be avoiding me. Why is that?"

"I'm not as good as you, you must be mistaken," Bai Ruxue turned her head away.

Xiao Mo glanced at Bai Ruxue's profile: "Alright, then maybe I really made a mistake. It's getting late, let's go back, otherwise Xiao Qing will worry."

"Oh wow."

Bai Ruxue got off the rock and followed Xiao Mo down the mountain.

The two walked along a mountain path, the moonlight pouring down silently like flowing water, filtering through layers of pine branches and casting dappled shadows on them.

Xiao Mo slowed her pace intentionally or unintentionally, and her snow-white skirt gently brushed against the tips of the drooping grass by the roadside, as if afraid of disturbing the creatures sleeping in the mountain night.

Two figures were cast on the dark ground, sometimes close together, sometimes apart.

Blue awns floated by, and fireflies appeared silently, dancing lightly in the low sky like tiny stars.

A firefly drifted close to the woman's temple, like a drifting star, pausing briefly before leisurely flying away.

The woman looked up at his profile.

Bai Ruxue felt as if the softest part of her heart had been gently touched.

It felt like something was about to burst forth from the soil of my heart.

Sweet and sour.

I want him to know, yet I'm also afraid he'll find out.

"Xiao Mo." Bai Ruxue seemed to have mustered up her courage, her cherry lips slightly parted, and she softly called his name.

"Mm," Xiao Mo responded.

"No, it's nothing," the woman said, looking into his eyes, then seemed to back down a bit. "I just noticed that the fireflies were quite beautiful tonight."

"It's quite beautiful."

"."

Bai Ruxue lowered her head and fell silent, her small hands stroking the hem of her skirt.

But soon, Bai Ruxue mustered her courage again: "Xiao Mo."

"Ok?"

"No, it's nothing. I noticed the moon is very round today."

Xiao Mo looked up and said, "It's alright."

"Xiao Mo."

"Ok?"

"I noticed there are so many stars tonight."

"It's quite a lot."

"Xiao Mo, I've noticed that Aunt Wang seems particularly happy today?"

"It must be because his son's business in the county town has taken off."

"I discovered that Xiaoqing doesn't like to eat green peppers."

"I discovered it a long time ago."

"Xiao Mo, I've noticed that the big black ox in the village has become lazy."

"Because it's old."

"Xiao Mo".

"Ok?"

"I think I've fallen for you."

Chapter 45 Will he marry me?

In the courtyard, Xiaoqing let out a burp.

Just now, Xiaoqing had a good talking session.

Xiao Qing swallowed up all the dozen or so mice nearby in one gulp.

Just as Xiaoqing was full and comfortable and wanted to go to sleep...

Suddenly, Xiaoqing saw her older sister running back from the darkness.

"Sister, you."

"Xiaoqing, I'm going to sleep!"

Before Xiaoqing could finish speaking, Bai Ruxue ran into the room as if fleeing, leaving Xiaoqing bewildered in the night.

What's wrong with my sister?

Where is Brother Xiao?

Didn't he go to find his sister?

Xiao Qing waited in the courtyard, and Xiao Mo returned after about half an incense stick's time.

Xiaoqing rushed forward: "Brother Xiao, what happened to my sister? Did something happen between you and my sister?"

“Hmm,” Xiao Mo thought for a moment, “Your sister and I did have a little thing happen, but it’s okay. Ru Xue is actually fine, so you don’t need to worry.”

"Ok."

Since Brother Xiao has said so, then Sister should be alright.

"Get some rest, I'm going back to my room now," Xiao Mo said to Xiao Qing.

Xiaoqing nodded: "Brother Xiao, you should also get some rest."

"I said it, I really said it."

Bai Ruxue lay on the bed, her ankles straight, her shapely calves constantly thumping up and down against the bed.

She pulled the pillow tightly over her head, leaving only her peach blossom eyes visible.

I think I might be falling for you.

Recalling what she had just said to Xiao Mo, Bai Ruxue felt extremely embarrassed, and her fair legs thrashed even faster on the quilt.

After a long while, the shyness in her heart slowly faded, and Bai Ruxue gradually regained her composure.

"Wait a minute. Why am I so shy? And why am I running in the mountains?"

After calming down a bit, Bai Ruxue realized that she seemed to have done something wrong.

After I said those words, I was so ashamed that I just wanted to run down the mountain as fast as I could.

But actually, there's no need to be shy.

If you like it, you like it; if you don't like it, you don't like it.

I just like Xiao Mo!

I simply expressed my feelings.

I didn't even wait for Xiao Mo's reply before I ran down the mountain.

"Really? Why would I run away?"

Bai Ruxue continued to bury her head in the pillow, feeling somewhat annoyed.

After feeling annoyed for a while, Bai Ruxue turned over and lay on her back on the bed.

She stared at the ceiling, clutching a pillow in her arms, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

Does Xiao Mo like me?

He probably likes me, right?

He said it before: once I understand what true love is, he will marry me.

This must be what true liking is, right?

Will he marry me?

Does what he said back then still stand?

The more Bai Ruxue thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
