"You, you, you..."

Ambiguity swirled between the two little people, who were being gazed at by each other.

In those eyes, Xiao Hong caught a glimpse of deep affection, but upon closer inspection, all she saw was the other person's smile. Xiao Hong almost stammered.

Her face flushed instantly, and the whole stone became scorching hot. Fortunately, she was naturally red, so her blush wasn't noticeable. Otherwise, Little Red wouldn't know how to face Little Purple in front of her.

What are you doing?

Xiao Hong pushed Xiao Zi away, scolding her, but her movements were weak and feeble.

The two little hands were intertwined, and Xiao Hong turned her head away, refusing to look at the other person again.

"You're teasing me again."

I'm so annoyed.

This stone is clearly smaller than me, and not only does it not call me "sister," it also likes to tease me.

Of the seven stones, Little Purple has the worst personality.

She asked around, and the other five hadn't been bullied by Xiao Zi; it was only her who was always teased by Xiao Zi.

Xiao Zi doesn't like her.

Xiao Hong already knew about this. She lowered her head, her eyes somewhat dim.

But she didn't want to become enemies with Xiao Zi.

The more Xiao Hong thought about it, the sadder she became, and she turned her back to Xiao Zi and gnawed at her fiercely.

It was sweet, but she felt bitter inside.

I want to cry.

Xiao Zi noticed Xiao Hong's unusual behavior at a glance. He twitched his lips and finally let out a long sigh.

"You are a stone spirit, are you really as incapable of feeling love as a stubborn rock?"

Since he finally understood, he treated her differently.

Although his words of love were often veiled, he never concealed his true feelings. The other five stones could understand his thoughts, but Xiao Hong remained oblivious to his feelings and even felt that he disliked her.

Sensing Xiaohong's resistance, he never forced himself on her.

He only thought that over time, the other person would discover his true feelings.

As a result, the longer this went on, the more bumpy his love life became, which explains why the other five stones often laughed at him.

"Never mind."

Seeing Xiao Hong's aggrieved look, Xiao Zi couldn't bear to see her sad.

"Don't you realize what I'm thinking? Have I ever been this kind to any other stone or even any other person besides you?"

“You always say I bully you, but when I get something good, I always give it to you.”

"Even this time, when I was supposed to preside over the assessment, I allowed you to go out and play because you wanted to."

"You idiot, Stone, what do you want me to do or say before you understand?"

Xiao Zi walked to the opposite side of Xiao Hong, moved the candy ball away, and looked at the colorful candy threads on Xiao Hong's cheeks, as well as the fact that the other party was clearly listening attentively but her mouth wouldn't stop talking. She was both annoyed and amused.

"Still eating."

He reached out and carefully wiped the sugar threads off Little Red's cheeks.

"Why can't I eat when I'm hungry?"

Xiao Hong turned her head away awkwardly and said in a much softer voice, "Besides, how am I supposed to understand if you don't tell me?"

Perhaps she sensed something, but when that hazy affection stirred longing in Xiao Hong's heart, it also felt so elusive and elusive.

Even a stone feels both reverence and fear for the word "love".

"You're still muttering to yourself? Don't you even think about it? Besides you, have I ever been so ambiguous with anyone else?"

With the sugar strands in her palm, Xiao Zi tasted them.

The sweetness spread in her mouth, giving Xiao Zi a lot of courage.

He realized he was also at fault.

Knowing full well that Xiaohong was timid, he refused to speak frankly and instead made her guess his feelings; ultimately, it was his fault.

"If you still don't understand, then I'll just say it directly."

"From the moment I gained sentience and saw you for the first time, I wanted to be with you."

“We stones are naturally blessed with spiritual qualities and have long lifespans.”

"Over the past thousands of years, I have seen all kinds of people and things in the world, and many joys have come into my view, but Xiao Hong, the joy I feel when I am with you is the only thing I ask for."

"I like you."

"Purple stones like red stones."

"Did you understand?"

Xiao Zi moved closer to Xiao Hong, her forehead touching Xiao Hong's, and the sweet breath she exhaled made Xiao Hong feel dizzy.

These seven stones, when combined, form the Rainbow Stone, the legacy of the Rainbow Gate.

They are one entity, and usually address each other as brothers and sisters, but in reality, they are not related by blood; they were simply born in the same place.

Having lived for so long, the seven stones have long been familiar with each other.

But this familiarity is different from love.

So what about her feelings for Xiao Zi?

Thinking of Xiao Zi would bring her joy. She would feel sad whenever Xiao Zi bullied her, but her gloom would dissipate when Xiao Zi turned around and tried to please her.

Her emotions were mostly focused on Xiao Zi.

She's happy when the other person is happy.

She thought, this is liking.

Strands of sugar melt, yet the sweetness remains ever fresh.

As memories of her past with Xiao Zi kept flashing through her mind, Xiao Hong's thoughts became increasingly clear.

"Did you understand?"

Little Purple, unaware of what Little Red was thinking, became anxious when she saw that Little Red wasn't responding.

He gripped his sleeve and asked anxiously.

He shouldn't have made everything clear when he wasn't sure.

He was originally waiting for Xiaohong to come back here, and he found it amusing when he saw Xiaohong carrying two candy balls.

But for some reason, after smelling the sweet aroma of the candy balls, an impulse welled up inside him.

Let's talk it out.

He wanted to make everything clear, so he didn't want to overthink things anymore, and he shouldn't let Xiao Hong worry about him.

But after she actually said it, Xiao Zi realized that she wasn't entirely confident that the other person would agree.

Thinking about it this way, Xiao Zi's forehead began to break out in a cold sweat.

"If you promise me, I'll agree to anything you ask."
