Yun Jingting's voice was deep and powerful. "Little girl …"
Little girl?
This somewhat ambiguous form of address, coupled with his sexy voice in the quiet night, carried a special kind of shock.
Mi Xaing 'er only felt her heart twitch. She didn't know why, but a warm current flowed through her body.
When she heard the second half of his sentence, she asked, "… You missed me?"
She was a little uneasy.
She immediately widened her eyes. "Don't listen to Gu Dalong's nonsense! Why would I … miss you for no reason? "
She thought to herself: You didn't rush back just because of this, right?
Yun Jingting seemed to be able to read her mind. "I've been quite busy recently, so I've been staying on the mountain! Today, I heard from Boss … Mm, I came back to get something! When I passed by your house, I saw that the lights were still on! I have to rush back tomorrow morning at 6 o 'clock! "
"Ah? So urgent? "
"You don't want me to go?"
"Tsk!"
"…"
Yun Jingting laughed … Mi Xaing 'er's expression had the unique tenderness of a young girl, and it made his heart ripple.
He gazed at her … Her eyes were moving, her lips were slightly pouted, and her long hair was loosely gathered over her left shoulder, hanging over her ample bosom. When the breeze blew, her hair danced and brushed past her porcelain-white cheeks.
He didn't dare to look at her for too long, afraid that he would fall into her charming charm. He quickly lowered his head, took out a cigarette, and lit it up. As he puffed out the smoke, the bright moonlight shone on his face, starting from his tall nose bridge. Half of his face was bright and gentle, while the other half was dark and bewitching.
From afar, a few dog barks could be heard …
Mi Xaing 'er was a little troubled!
It was the middle of the night, and the two of them were talking with a wall between them. In the countryside of that era, if they were seen by someone …
She hesitated for a moment before rushing over to open the door. "Come in!"
"Okay?"
Good or bad … it would definitely be better than him standing outside!
Mi Xaing 'er stood by the door and said, "I'll count to three. One, two …"
Before she could say "three", the man had already stepped into the courtyard. He casually extinguished the remaining half of the cigarette and tilted his head to smile at her. There was a hint of mischief on his face, which was poles apart from his usual reticent, cold, and arrogant self. "Why aren't you asleep yet? Waiting for me? "
"Cut it out! You wish! I need to pack a few things! "Mi Xaing 'er walked up the stairs." I heard that … you guys are very busy with digging canals? "
"Yes!" Yun Jingting followed behind her. "The military hopes that the canal can be completed in time for the busy farming season, so in order to hurry up, we bury the herbs almost every day. This task is very dangerous, so I have to keep an eye on it!"
Open a mountain?
It was indeed dangerous!
Mi Xaing 'er couldn't help but stop in her tracks. In this short moment of hesitation, Yun Jingting had already walked in front of her.
He was tall, and as soon as he stepped through the door, his forehead hit a bamboo basket under the eaves with a bang. He couldn't help but shrink his neck and exclaim softly, "Hiss! What's this? "
He looked … as adorable as a child.
Mi Xaing 'er laughed. "You deserve it! It's your fault for not keeping an eye on it! "
Although she said that, she rushed over on her tiptoes, took the basket down, and placed it by the door. "These are herbs!"
"Are you sick?"
"No!" Mi Xaing 'er didn't want him to worry, so she deliberately played it down. "It's for someone else!"
"Oh!"
Yun Jingting was relieved. He looked around and saw that the room was spotless. There were a few handfuls of herbs scattered on the square table. It looked like they were washing and removing their roots. He didn't care and sat on a chair at the side.
The light in the room brightened up, and Mi Xaing 'er could see his face clearly … His eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't look good. There were dark circles under his tired eyes. "How many hours do you sleep every day?"
"Not necessarily!" Yun Jingting said casually, "I'm the regiment commander, so I have to take the lead. The soldiers work in three shifts, and I try my best to follow them! It's to complete the mission! Don't worry! It's fine! "
His tone was casual and affectionate … as if he was a family member.
Mi Xaing 'er pondered for a moment. "Have you eaten?"
"I'll eat when I get back to the platoon!"
"That's good, I made a pot of mushroom soup …"
"What soup?"
"It's mushroom soup. The mushrooms are all picked from the mountains, so they're very fresh! Why don't … you try it? "
Mi Xaing 'er didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did!
She was indebted to him for saving her life and taking care of her. It was only right for her to show concern for him in return.
Yun Jingting didn't stand on ceremony. "Then I'll try it!"
"Wait here! I'll heat it up for you! "
"Don't heat it up! It's so troublesome! Soldiers aren't that particular! I'll drink it even if it's cold! "
Mi Xaing 'er ignored him and turned to leave the main room. Before she could light the fire in the kitchen, Yun Jingting had already followed her. "Why don't … I help you with the fire?"
"No need!"
Mi Xaing 'er was already very familiar with this big pot. She swiftly stuffed a handful of straw into the stove and drew a line to the fire. Then, she pressed two pieces of dry firewood and pulled the bellows a few times … The fire under the stove burned brightly, and her little face turned bright red.
Yun Jingting leaned against the door with her long legs crossed. She quietly watched the scene in front of her. Her entire heart seemed to have melted into a pool of spring water by the fire.
After a while, steam rose from the pot … and the kitchen was filled with a fragrant aroma.
The man sniffed. "It smells so good!"
Mi Xaing 'er looked up. Her eyes were burning with passion, her lips had dimples, and her long hair was hanging down slightly. "Hmm? Smells good, doesn't it? "
She lifted her chin towards the cupboard. "Bowl!"
"Okay!" Yun Jingting agreed readily. She strode over with her long legs, took a white porcelain bowl, and placed it on the stove. "Here!"
Mi Xaing 'er opened the lid of the pot and stirred the soup with a big spoon. She scooped out a spoonful of mushrooms and scooped half a spoonful of soup into the bowl. Then, she turned around and took out two corn cakes from the cupboard. "Eat first! I'll fry a few duck eggs for you! "
The man half-joked. "Huh? Don't bother with duck eggs! I made them especially for you! I put in a lot of effort! I don't want to hide it from you. I feel quite bad about destroying the entire nest of ducks! "
Mi Xaing 'er glared at him. "Stop joking around! It's getting late. Hurry up and finish eating and go back to rest! "
She took the opportunity to pick up the bowl of soup and placed it in front of him …
Halfway through holding the bowl, she felt that it was a little hot and quickly switched hands … Yun Jingting immediately stepped forward. "Be careful!"
They took the bowl …
Their fingertips touched at the bottom of the bowl …
Mi Xaing 'er quickly retracted her hand. She lowered her head and tidied her long hair by her ear. All she could see was the man's broad palms and rough joints.
Yun Jingting felt that the temperature of her fingertips was hotter than the rim of the bowl. She didn't know what to feel. She absent-mindedly took a sip of the soup and immediately stuck her tongue out. "Hey, it's so hot!"
Mi Xaing 'er looked at his disheveled appearance and chuckled. "Slow down! This isn't the army cafeteria. No one is going to fight with you! "
Yun Jingting narrowed his eyes and looked at her. There was a feeling in his heart that he couldn't suppress. He took half a step forward and looked down at her. His voice was low and passionate. "Mi Xaing 'er, I have something to say …"
