One, Two, Three
On the other side.
Tang Si propped her head on her hand as she racked her brain. Now that they were planning to return to the capital, what should she do?
She had been away from Houliao for a very long time. If she didn't return soon, her father would definitely send someone to look for her. When he found her, he would definitely skin her alive.
But —
She couldn't bear to leave Mo Ruo!
Conflicted, she slammed the table and ran to find Mo Ruo.
Mo Ruo was sitting in a pavilion by the pond, drinking and reciting a poem under the moonlight.
"Day after day, under the moonlight in Xilong, a pot of fine wine, gentle and graceful."
Mm, good poem!
He took a gulp of wine and saw Tang Si running towards him. His hand trembled and the wine pot in his hand almost fell to the ground.
It was as if he had seen a ghost.
He couldn't afford to offend this kind of woman!
But before he could run, he was stopped by someone.
"Why did you run when you saw me?" Tang Si questioned.
He put on a fake smile. "Nothing. Look, it's getting late and we still have to leave tomorrow.
I was planning to go back and rest. "
"Really? I thought you ran because you saw me. "
"Of course not." He quickly waved his hand. "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
He pushed Tang Si's hand away, intending to make a run for it.
"Wait."
Tang Si stood in front of him and spread out her arms.
"I have something to ask you."
"What is it?"
"Promise me first that you'll tell me the truth. You can't lie to me."
Huh?
Mo Ruo looked her up and down. What was this girl doing?
He nodded and said impatiently, "Hurry up and ask. I'll tell you everything I know."
Tang Si paused for a moment and licked her red lips. She looked at him with a pair of serious eyes and asked slowly, "Do you want me to return to the capital with you?"
Do you want me to return to the capital with you?
Mo Ruo froze and looked at her in confusion. "What question is that? Why do you ask? "
Tang Si bit her lip and mustered up her courage. "You know, I've been away from Houliao for a long time. If I don't return to Houliao soon, my father will definitely come looking for me. When that happens, he'll have to carry me back. So … I want to ask you, do you want me to go back? Or do you want me to take the risk of being chased by my father and go to the capital with you? "
"Of course I'm going back. You're from Hou Liao, don't tell me you want to stay in Great Lin?"
Hurry up and leave!
Hurry up and leave!
Tang Si was upset and anxious. "So you want me to go back?"
"Of course. You already said that your father will hunt you down, so why are you still staying outside? Hurry up and go back. "
"But … what if we put aside these problems? What if my father doesn't chase me back to Houliao? Do you want me to go back to the capital with you? "Tang Si's eyes lit up as she looked at him expectantly.
Mo Ruo was at a loss for words. He burped and didn't say anything.
If he didn't make his stance clear, Tang Si couldn't calm down. She stepped forward and tugged on his sleeve, shaking it vigorously. She continued to ask, "Tell me, do you want me to go back to Houliao? Or go back to the capital with you? "
"I …"
"What about me? I'll give you a count of three. If you want me to go back to the capital with you, no matter who tries to stop me, I'll go with you. But if you don't want me to go, I'll go back to Houliao when you guys go back to the capital tomorrow. "She seemed to be throwing a tantrum.
Mo Ruo was rendered speechless by the question.
He had been drinking wine and was even in the mood to recite poems. But when this lass came, his mood was completely gone and he was even muddle-headed.
His head was about to explode.
Tang Si also started to count.
"One!"
Mo Ruo struggled internally. This woman was like a piece of sticky candy, sticking to him and not willing to come down. It was very annoying. There were many times when he wanted to kick her away.
"Two!"
But she had saved his life. She was his benefactor and she wasn't a bad person. It was just that her mouth was a little cheap, a little noisy, and even a little crazy. But he seemed to have a little bit of feelings for her …
He hurriedly shook his head.
"Three!"
There was no response.
Tang Si stared at him for a long time. Finally, the hand that was tugging on his sleeve dropped bit by bit.
Disappointment!
She hung her head, tears welling up in her eyes. But she stubbornly wiped them away and said, "I know."
Ah?
Mo Ruo thought to himself, what did she know?
But she hung her head dejectedly and turned around weakly, preparing to leave.
Seeing this, Mo Ruo's brain suddenly spasmed and his mouth began to move. "Erm, hurry up and prepare your things. Don't leave anything behind. If you complain that you didn't bring anything along, I'll throw you down."
Huh?
Tang Si's lowered head suddenly looked up.
Her eyes were filled with surprise!
She turned to look at him.
"What did you say? Say it again. "
"Say what again? Aren't you annoying? When we reach the capital, I'll definitely take a good look at you and see what's wrong with your brain. "He waved his hand.
His face was still full of disdain.
What he meant was — — for Tang Si to follow him to the capital.
Tang Si's eyes slowly overflowed.
She pursed her lips together and smiled like a thief. Her delicate body twisted towards Mo Ruo's side.
"You should've said so earlier! I thought … "
Heh heh.
She was laughing so happily!
Mo Ruo wrinkled his nose and took a step back. He pointed to the sky and said, "It's late. Go rest early. We still have a long journey tomorrow."
"Well …"
Before Tang Si could finish speaking, he had already walked away. But he had only taken two steps when he was suddenly hugged tightly from behind.
His whole body quivered.
Tang Si didn't know where she got the courage from, but she hugged him and pressed her face against his back.
She closed her eyes and smiled sweetly.
At that moment, time seemed to stop.
Mo Ruo stood there in a daze, as if someone had cast a spell on him. He only glanced sideways but didn't push the woman away. He just let her hug him.
·
Time passed slowly.
Tang Si opened her eyes and took a deep breath. She let go of him and went around to stand in front of him. She stood on her tiptoes and lifted her chin to kiss Mo Ruo's cheek.
Like a dragonfly touching the water!
Then, she ran away like a child who had done something wrong.
She disappeared like a wisp of smoke.
But he could still hear her laughter from afar.
What a great bargain!
But —
Mo Ruo was completely dumbfounded.
Yes, he had asked that lass to return to the capital with him, and he had also admitted that he had a little bit of feelings for that lass, but, weren't you a little too damn fast?
Couldn't you give me some time to prepare?
