Therefore, in order not to hurt Jinglian or cause her to overthink, Ah Li neither asked nor continued to look for Jinglian.

Now, this person has come looking for us.

Jinglian put her arm around Ali's shoulder, rested her head on Ali's head, and said, "Yes, Ali, will you marry me?"

Ah Li nestled in Jing Lian's arms and said, "I do."

"Thank you, Ali." Jinglian hugged Ali even tighter.

It's unclear how much time passed, but the two remained in that position without changing.

Ahri moved her head and said, "We're living a peaceful life like this."

"Um."

Ah Li raised her head, looked at Jing Lian, and asked, "That day, did you hear what Jing Yuan and I were saying?"

Jinglian did not deny it; he nodded.

Ah Li continued, "Then do you mind? Do you mind that I've liked other people before?"

Jinglian lowered her head and slowly kissed Ali, saying, "It would be a lie to say I don't mind."

Ah Li raised her hand and placed it on Jing Lian's shoulder. "Then why did you come looking for me?"

Jinglian raised an eyebrow and hugged Ali's waist tightly. "Because he has never kissed you like I have, nor has he ever returned to secular life for me like I have."

"Ah Li, you actually have feelings for me too, don't you?"

As Jinglian spoke, she deepened the kiss.

Ahri didn't refuse and went straight to meet her.

Sometimes, actions speak louder than words.

Jinglian also told Ali that Jingyuan had gone to the Miasma Forest to find his red fox.

That day was also the time when everyone went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots.

The red fox was being mischievous again, chasing after a little rabbit. Then someone shouted from behind, and the red fox fell into the miasma forest.

Without thinking, Jingyuan jumped down.

"And then what happened?"

Ah Li looked at Jing Lian, wanting to know what happened next.

Jinglian touched Ah Li's waist and back, then pointed to her lips, "Kiss me."

Ah Li didn't ask Jing Lian. Instead, she calmly stood up from beside Jing Lian, then looked outside. It was already dark.

Ali hung a sign outside the teahouse that said it was closed.

Jinglian thought Ah Li was angry, so he wanted to finish telling what had just happened.

Ali said first, "I'll go cook something to eat first, and I'll eat something when I'm fasting later."

"oh."

Jinglian looked at Ali with some regret.

Ah Li stepped forward, placed one hand on the table and the other on Jing Lian's shoulder, and asked, "Jing Lian, do you know how couples in the mortal world get along?"

"Um."

"Do you think a kiss is enough?"

"Um."

Jinglian looked at her with an expression that said, "Isn't that how it is?"

Ah Li patted Jing Lian on the shoulder, "It's okay, I'll teach you after you've eaten."

"good."

Jinglian nodded and helped Ah Li cook noodles together.

Jie Kong smelled the aroma, came out of his room, and went to the kitchen. "It smells so good! It makes me hungry!"

Ah Li had already started preparing the noodles. She placed three bowls in front of her, each already filled with seasonings.

Ali divided the noodles into three portions, poured broth over them, and together with Jinglian, carried the three bowls of noodles to the table.

Jiekong followed behind the two of them, saying, "I'll do it, I'll handle mine!"

Ali took out three pairs of chopsticks and gave them to Jinglian, who then handed them to Jiekong.

Jie Kong, chopsticks in hand, sat down at the table and called out, "Then I'll start eating!"

Then, he lowered his head and started eating.

Ah Li also said to Jing Lian, "Try it and see if the taste is different?"

The noodles were plain, just with different seasonings added.

Jinglian took a bite first, savoring it carefully, and then said to Ali, "It still tastes the same. I like it very much and miss it very much."

Ah Li was in a good mood after hearing this, especially since the food she cooked was delicious and watching them eat it was a pleasure.

The three of them quickly finished eating and drinking, and Jie Kong originally wanted to talk to Ali.

The two of them didn't stop sitting in the courtyard. Their hands were always together, and they would look at the starry sky from time to time, whispering to each other.

Jie Kong said wearily, "Never mind, I'll go for a walk outside by myself."

Jinglian waved her hand and said, "Go."

After Jiekong left, Ah Li pulled Jinglian back to her room.

Ali also said, "In the mortal world, there are many things that couples do together."

The night was beautiful; even with the lights off, the light in their eyes was still clearly visible.

After an unknown amount of time, Ah Li found Jing Lian's hair too prickly.

Jinglian continued to work diligently on what was in front of her, and then asked, "Ali, is this okay? Or is it like this?"

Ah Li tossed and turned, clutching the blankets beneath her. She hadn't expected that Jing Lian could be so self-taught, not at all like a novice.

Just now, she only gave him a little guidance, and he was able to apply what he learned to other situations.

...

When Jiekong returned, he was wondering why Ahli and Jinglian were nowhere to be seen when he heard strange noises coming from Ahli's room.

Just as Jiekong walked over, he heard Jinglian say, "Ali, relax, it's hard for me to move like this."

What are you moving?

Jie Kongxiang pushed open the door and went in to see what the two were doing.

But when they heard Ah Li's voice from time to time, and Jing Lian's voice without any attempt to conceal it, they were overwhelmed.

Jie Kong blushed and took a step back. These two...

Jie Kong covered his ears and ran back to his room, then grabbed a pillow from his bed and covered his ears with it.
