Drifting with the wind, unable to control myself, yet seemingly guided by someone, I wonder where I am going?
"Crunch, crunch!" It really sounded like footsteps on snow.
Has someone come over?
Crystal clear, almost ethereal, such beautiful petals! A finger reached out and gently picked up a petal from the ground…
"Brother, hurry back," came a woman's voice, high-pitched and familiar. She was calling me "brother"—who was "brother"? Could it be the person who picked me up?
"Coming," Mo Tian replied, taking a quick step forward. She bent her arm and placed the flower petals she had picked up into the pocket of her cotton coat…
Interesting! A man who actually likes flower petals! For some reason, Wan'er suddenly wanted to see this man's face, to know who he was. However, at this moment, she wasn't tall enough, and she was stuffed into a pocket, so she couldn't see him. Alright, then I'll wait for my chance…
Before me stood a slightly worn farmhouse, and a pretty farm woman was sweeping the snowflakes from the ground with a broom in her hand…
Soon, a clear path appeared beneath our feet, leading directly to the stairs...
"Sister, what are you doing? I think the snowflakes are beautiful on the ground, why are you sweeping them away?" Mo Tian asked, puzzled.
"Actually, I don't necessarily want to sweep it, but you see, these past few days, I've been busy preparing things for the New Year."
"The house has been exposed all day. If I don't fix it up properly, they'll find it soon and might cause me trouble." The pretty woman in front of me was Xiao Qiaomei, who had become sworn siblings with Hua Motian.
“Sister, you’re mistaken.” Mo Tian grinned, “There’s a saying that goes, the most dangerous place is the safest. As long as you don’t give yourself away, they can say that they can’t find you at all right now.”
"Are you talking in your sleep, child?" Qiao Mei turned to look at Mo Tian, not understanding for a moment.
"Think about it." Mo Tian sighed softly, raised his head, looked around, and looked very seriously at Qiao Mei opposite him. "Look at you now, you're slender, pretty, with a ponytail tied behind your head, like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. You're not the same as before at all. And this room, now that it's exposed, has lost its original mystery. Looking at it now, it's just a simple farmhouse, with no mystery whatsoever, and you can't smell any aura. As long as you don't lose your composure, you should be fine for a few days."
Mo Tian's words were reasonable and well-founded.
"Oh right, hehe!" Qiao Mei suddenly realized, opened her mouth and smiled, then raised her hand to cover her mouth, a little embarrassed. "Look at me, the habits I've developed over the years have become fixed ways of thinking. If you hadn't reminded me, I would still be busy doing the wrong thing."
As she spoke, Qiao Mei put down the broom in her hand.
“But sister, don’t be careless. Only after we figure out where these people came from and completely sever ties can we relax completely,” Mo Tian looked up at the deep blue sky. “If I’m not mistaken, if they can’t find you, they will definitely try another method. They will inquire around the area and look for changes in the house these past few days…”
"You mean the danger isn't over?" Qiao Mei gasped upon hearing this. "Then what do we do?"
"Go to your father and ask for his help."
