Chapter 414: The Fiancé Ran Away with the Most Beautiful Girl in the World (39)

Shu Shichu didn't expect Mu Changqing to express his feelings to her directly. The anger that had just risen suddenly subsided. She stammered for a while, "Please don't slander me. I am innocent with you. When did I steal your heart?"

Mu Changqing had already realized that it was impossible to fall in love with the woman in front of him, so he simply went all out and said with a hint of accusation: "But I have been with you for such a long time. Even if you don't have any feelings for me for the time being, you can't keep me in the dark about everything... I thought we were at least good friends with similar interests..."

Hearing what he said, the pair of dark eyes on the handsome face seemed to look at her with a little grievance, and Shu Shichu's heart softened immediately. She was a person who would not respond to soft words, and she was also a face control patient. So when she met Mu Changqing at this time, she began to reflect on herself, wondering if she had really been too much to him. After all, Mu Changqing had always taken good care of her.

Seeing her face soften, Mu Changqing was immediately delighted, thinking that he finally had hope. He retreated to advance, and said, "Forget it, Arong, let's not talk about this anymore... We finally met here, so why don't you buy me a drink?"

"You've already sat down, can't you just pour the wine yourself?" Shu Shichu breathed a sigh of relief. Mu Changqing didn't hold on to her weakness, but just asked her to buy him a drink. Doesn't that mean that he won't hold her accountable for hiding her identity from him and pretending not to know him?

Seeing the look of "lucky escape" on her pretty face, Mu Changqing could not help but chuckle, and really didn't bother to be polite with her and started pouring the wine himself. Now that he had found the person, could he let her get away again?

"Now it is March, the time when peach blossoms are in full bloom. I have a farm on the outskirts of the city with many peach trees planted in it. Arong, do you want to go and enjoy the flowers?" Mu Changqing asked Shu Shichu.

Shu Shichu had nothing to do in the first place, and was just wandering around aimlessly. When she heard what Mu Changqing said, she naturally wouldn't refuse, so she immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I really like to appreciate flowers."

After drinking and listening to the book, Shu Shichu followed Mu Changqing to his villa on the outskirts of the city. The villa covered a vast area. In addition to more than half of the fields being used to grow crops, the rest of the mountain land was planted with fruit trees, including peach trees and pear trees. It was the season when peach and plum flowers were in full bloom. As soon as Shu Shichu entered the villa, he saw the red and white peach and pear blossoms at a glance, which were gorgeous and spectacular.

When Mu Changqing saw the joyful look on her face, he immediately knew that he had made the right decision to invite her to enjoy the peach blossoms. In such a romantic place, he could take the opportunity to express his feelings more. Maybe Rongrong would agree to him if she was happy!

Mu Changqing had a good idea and even had dinner placed in the peach forest. Fortunately, the farm was well maintained and had everything available. Mu Changqing really had someone prepare a sumptuous meal under the peach forest. Lanterns were hung on the peach branches along the way. In the dim light, the gorgeous peach blossoms sparkled, as if in a fairyland.

Appreciating flowers at night seems to be more stunning than during the day. At least Shu Shichu was astounded by what Mu Changqing did. This man understood the beauty of "candlelight dinner" hundreds of years ahead of his descendants.

Shu Shichu felt a little regretful that he couldn't take out the good wine in the space and drink it. In such an environment, drinking would make the atmosphere more interesting.

Perhaps Mu Changqing and she had a tacit understanding, because he had someone prepare fine wine early on.

With beautiful women, fine wine and delicious food, Shu Shichu felt that he was already a little tipsy even before he drank any.

"Why did you think of hosting a banquet for me under the peach forest?" Shu Shichu asked Mu Changqing, taking a sip of the mellow wine. "You're so smart."

"Don't you like it?" Mu Changqing asked, staring at her with his sharp eyes. The light in his eyes was shockingly bright. Shu Shichu's face felt a little hot under his burning gaze, and she couldn't help but avoid his gaze.

"I like it." Shu Shichu nodded. She admitted that she was vulgar and really wanted to enjoy the beautiful scenery, delicious food, wine, and beauty.

"I'm glad you like it. My efforts are worth it." Mu Changqing sat opposite her. The servants who had prepared the banquet had left early, so there were only the two of them left here.

March was still early spring and quite cold, especially in the woods at night. Although there was a brazier nearby, the wind was still a bit chilly. However, both of them were people with profound internal strength, so the cold was nothing to them.

The petals fluttering in the wind were like pink snow, landing on Shu Shichu's hair, shoulders, and even sticking to her face. Mu Changqing held the wine glass and looked at her with infatuated eyes. He had long forgotten to drink. He now truly understood the meaning of "people are more beautiful than flowers".

Shu Shichu already had a stunning appearance, with fair skin and beautiful looks. Now in the dim light, the fluttering petals fell on her from time to time, making her look like a fairy, as if she would fly into the sky at the next moment.

Mu Changqing couldn't help but reach out and stroke Shu Shichu's face.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Shu Shichu had drunk several glasses of wine, and the wind made her a little dizzy. When she saw him trying to touch her face, she did not dodge, but asked Mu Changqing with a pair of charming and beautiful eyes.

"You... have flower petals on your face." Mu Changqing said, gently taking off the delicate flower petals on her face. His fingers touched her slightly cool skin, and he suddenly felt worried, "Are you cold?"

"I'm not cold, how could I be cold?" Shu Shichu smiled naively. She was greedy, and when she came across good wine, she would drink as much as she could. So she drank too much, and her mind was confused. She smiled and grabbed Mu Changqing's hand, which he didn't have time to retract, and pulled it hard, and Mu Changqing fell on her shoulder.

Of course, Mu Changqing, the scheming man, did it on purpose, otherwise, with his martial arts skills, Shu Shichu would not be able to pull him away if he didn't want to.

"Feel it, I'm hot." Shu Shichu said to Mu Changqing with his black and white eyes shining, like a child who had done something good and wanted to be praised by his parents. He also said proudly, "See, I told you I'm not cold, right?"

She took Mu Changqing's hand and placed it on her...neck. Mu Changqing looked at her snow-white and slender neck with deep and dark eyes, feeling the warm and delicate touch of his fingers. His voice immediately became hoarse, and he said with a dangerous tone: "Arong, you are drunk...but I am not a gentleman."

"What gentleman, bamboo?" Shu Shichu said vaguely. Mu Changqing threw away his hand, poured himself a glass of wine flexibly, and drank it in one gulp.

Mu Changqing looked at the little drunkard with a helpless smile, and suddenly didn't know whether to behave like a gentleman or just take advantage of the situation.
