Chapter 218

On his way to the orchard behind the mountain, Theodore was bored and tried to turn the ring, but found his little finger empty.

Golden Eyes paused slightly, remembering that the branches would occasionally snag on the ring while picking fruit, so he took it off and tossed it into his pocket.

But at noon, he made up a random excuse to appease Jiang You. Now, it was impossible for him to take the ring out of his pocket and put it on.

Small actions shouldn't be easily changed. Theodore continued walking forward, and when he finally found the ring for the third time, he was so annoyed that he was about to explode.

"This is so annoying!" Theodore's eyes narrowed suddenly as he looked at Jiang You. It was all her fault.

How could the cat be at fault? It's all someone else's fault.

Jiang You didn't notice that Theodore was acting strangely, but she did notice that he kept touching his little finger. He must have been wearing that ring for a long time; it was a habit he'd developed.

Tsk, she sold her ring just to eat sweets, I'm speechless.

She looked up as if to say something, when suddenly, Theodore reached out and rubbed her cheeks in a fit of rage.

“…Um, Theodore, you… um…”

Before Jiang You could finish speaking, Theodore put down his hand, turned around and left angrily.

What did I do to offend him this time? Jiang You rubbed his flushed face and followed, without delving into the matter.

After all, cats are creatures that can suddenly attack you out of nowhere.

“Theodore, you go ahead and pick them first. I’ll take over when you get tired,” Jiang You said, walking beside Theodore.

Theodore snorted but didn't say anything, and Jiang You knew he had agreed.

“Give me a lollipop,” she said.

"No."

"I saw you put it in your pocket, hurry up."

"No means no. You dead cockroach, stay away from me."

"I'll go out and buy you a ring."

"Ha, who cares... Hey, don't you dare take anything from my pocket!"

In the orchard on the back hill, everyone worked diligently to cut and pack the fruit.

Theodore sat on the ladder, viciously cutting off a fruit, and turned his head to look at Jiang You not far away.

She was engrossed in chatting with others, sucking on a lollipop, completely forgetting that someone was waiting for her.

Hmph, saying he's like a cat, when she's clearly the wildcat.

"Jiang You, it's your turn to cut."

"Oh, you're here," Jiang You turned to reply to Theodore, then turned back to say a quick goodbye to Gary next to him: "I'll come over to learn when I have time, come over whenever you have time."

Theodore climbed down the ladder and glanced at the woman talking to Jiang You. She had brown hair, brown eyes, and freckles on her cheeks, and was not as handsome as him.

Turning her gaze away from Jiang You, who was running towards her, she asked, "What were you talking about with her?"

"Hehe, it's a secret. You'll find out in a few days, maybe a couple of days," Jiang You said, picking up the scissors and climbing the ladder.

“Who cares to know?” Theodore said nonchalantly, not caring at all.

A few minutes later, Jiang You, who was carefully cutting fruit, felt someone tug at her skirt.

She looked down, and Theodore held out a lollipop. When their eyes met, he blushed and turned his head away: "What did you say to that woman?"

Jiang You smiled and took it, putting it in his pocket: "I already said we'd know in a couple of days."

Theodore's expression immediately changed: "Give me back my candy."

Jiang You pouted defiantly and shouted, "If it's given to me, it's mine. If you're so capable, take it back!"

Theodore climbed the ladder, and Jiang You's eyes widened: "Wait a minute."

As soon as she finished speaking, the ladder veered to the right, and she fell down, taking Theodore down with her.

Jiang knelt on either side of his waist, sitting directly on his waist. Theodore froze on the ground, his expression very strange.

"Are you alright? Are you alright?" Jiang You moved and felt something pressing against her butt. Before she could think too much, Theodore blushed and pushed her away.

"Theodore?" Jiang You patted her skirt and stood up. Seeing that Theodore was so angry that his neck and face were red, she felt guilty and shrank back, whispering, "I'm sorry."

“It’s nothing,” Theodore said, his expression still strange.
