âYeah, itâs interesting! Very fun!â Mo Xiaomeng laughed happily.
âXiaoxiao, itâs a pity that you have classes. Otherwise, I would really like to come here with you.â
Hearing that, Mu Xiaoxiao couldnât help feeling moved. She was itching so badly to head over there right then.
But it was already so late.
Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at Yin Shaojie beside her, who was looking sulky.
With a puzzled expression, Yin Shaojie gave her a questioning look, as though he was asking her if something was up with Mo Xiaomeng.
Mo Xiaomeng continued saying, âOh yeah. Sijue said that this Water Lantern Festival will be held for three days, and the third day just happens to be a Friday. Xiaoxiao, see if you can come here on Friday? Xiaoxiao, having stayed in China for so long already, you still havenât spent much time with me⦠I really want to have more wonderful memories together with you.â
Hearing that, Mu Xiaoxiao felt a little guilty.
Mo Xiaomeng came to China to visit and spend time with her, but she hadnât been able to find the time to hang out with Xiaomeng. She was feeling quite guilty.
Moreover, Mu Xiaoxiao also wanted to go for the Water Lantern Festival, so she promised her, saying, âOkay, Iâll go. Enjoy your time with Sijue for now. Wait for me. Iâll see when I can head down there.â
âReally? Thatâs great!â Mo Xiaomeng exclaimed like an excited little bird.
Infected by her high spirits, Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and said. âEnjoy yourself then. Iâll see you then.â
âMm, alright. Weâll chat again next time. Weâll go and release the lanterns now.â
âAlright then. Bye bye.â
Mu Xiaoxiao hung up the phone, and her little brows wrinkled.
Yin Shaojie crept himself up to her from behind, his arms around her, he asked beside her ear, âWhat happened?â
Mu Xiaoxiao snorted at him. âSee how romantic Sijue is. He took Xiaomeng to the Water Lantern Festival. What did you do?â
Yin Shaojie laughed. So that was what she was grumbling about.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDid you tell Xiaomeng when you will go and meet her?â
âIâm not telling you! I will go there myself when the time comes!â Mu Xiaoxiao deliberately looked away from him.
âYou want to go there by yourself? You really donât want me to go with you?â With his strong arms, Yin Shaojie tightened his hold on her. His elegant face pressing against her delicate cheeks, his voice became deeper and sounded more alluring.
Mu Xiaoxiao pouted. âYou only know how to make me angry and upset! You can go look for Su Lin. Iâll find someone else to go with to the Water Lantern Festival.â
The Water Lantern Festival was also to some people a Valentineâs Day, where couples would make a water lantern together and release it onto the water to make their wish to be together forever.
Yin Shaojie narrowed his eyes. âWho are you going to ask? That Feng Shengyang?â
At the mention of that personâs name, he sounded quite jealous.
Mu Xiaoxiao tilted up her chin like a queen and snorted. âWith my charm, I can find a handsome guy easily. I donât need you!â
He wasnât the only one who could charm many. Back when she was in America, lots of people tried to court her, okay?
Yin Shaojieâs eyes turned dangerous. âYou would rather find someone else then to take me there with you?â
âArenât you meeting Uncle Su tomorrow? Uncle Su must be looking for your help. How would you have time to go for this thing.â Mu Xiaoxiao said gloomily as she leaned back into his arms.
Her head tilted to the side, placing her ear right at his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat.
Of course, she hoped that he would be the one to accompany her.
Yin Shaojie held up her little hand and put it in his. Placing his lips at her ear, he said, âDonât worry. Iâll go with you. No matter where you want to go, Iâll go with you. Donât even think about finding some other guy to go with you, do you hear?â
