The figure was Ji Xingzhi.
Behind the screen was a large round wooden barrel. Ji Xingzhi was soaking naked in the barrel with the water level reaching her shoulders. Her head was resting on the edge of the barrel. In order to prevent her hair from getting wet, she tied her long hair into a bun on top of her head and fastened it with the white and blue striped headband that Luo Bai had given her. Her posture was lazy and relaxed.
After a while, Ji Xingzhi stood up, and crystal clear water droplets slowly flowed down along the contours of her body and finally merged into the wooden barrel.
As Ji Xingzhi walked out of the wooden barrel, she suddenly smelled a familiar light bamboo fragrance. Ji Xingzhi was slightly stunned, then her face blushed a little unnaturally. She quickly pulled down the blue robe hanging on the screen and put it on as a bathrobe. It was a thin cross-collared robe with a blue belt tied around her waist.
Ji Xingzhi even forgot to wear shoes and walked around the screen barefoot. Sure enough, she saw Xiao Moyan sitting at the table, indifferent to the dishes on the table.
Ji Xingzhi did not walk over as usual, but looked at Xiao Moyan in a daze, not hiding the surprise in her eyes, but besides experience, there was also a hint of confusion and... sudden realization.
Xiao Moyan, who was sitting at the table, had changed his usual hazy green clothes and put on a white brocade robe. His long hair was tied up with a lotus crown, leaving a strand of hair on each side of his forehead. His eyebrows were cold and his expression was serene. The white brocade robe with a stand-up collar and silver-striped flowing clouds made him look superior, and he also had a more ethereal and fairy-like air than usual, with no desires or demands, and was indifferent and aloof.
Ji Xingzhi's heart suddenly sank. The emperor's uncle had obviously just changed his robe, but why did she feel that the emperor's uncle had become a different person, somewhat unkind, and seemed so far away even though he was so close.
Xiao Moyan raised his eyes to look at Ji Xingzhi. Seeing that Ji Xingzhi was dressed so casually and that she was barefoot, he couldn't help but frown slightly and said, "Come here."
Ji Xingzhi suddenly came back to her senses and subconsciously walked towards Xiao Moyan. As soon as she reached Xiao Moyan's side, Xiao Moyan reached out and grabbed her arm and brought her into an embrace filled with a light bamboo fragrance.
Xiao Moyan held Ji Xingzhi in his arms and stretched out his hand to warm Ji Xingzhi's feet without any hesitation. The cold feet were wrapped in Xiao Moyan's palms. Seeing Ji Xingzhi was stunned and didn't speak, Xiao Moyan looked at Ji Xingzhi sideways and asked in a low voice, "What are you stunned about?"
Ji Xingzhi was slightly stunned, leaning in Xiao Moyan's arms, her mood suddenly became very low, and she lowered her head and murmured, "Uncle, I like you."
Xiao Moyan paused and said, "I know."
"I like you."
"I know."
Ji Xingzhi suddenly raised her head and looked at Xiao Moyan, and said firmly, "Uncle, I really like you."
Xiao Moyan paused slightly, and this time he didn't say anything. The moment Ji Xingzhi finished speaking, he seemed to sigh helplessly, then lowered his head and kissed those seductive lips, sucking gently with full tenderness, as gentle as if he was treating an unattainable rare treasure, and was reluctant to use even the slightest strength.
Ji Xingzhi's heart seemed to be held high in the clouds, free and unrestrained in the soft clouds. Her cheeks felt hot, and there seemed to be a small flame in her heart that was rushing around in her chest without any reason, and her body became soft.
The kiss made Ji Xingzhi so confused and exhausted that Xiao Moyan's lips gently touched Ji Xingzhi's, their breaths blending together, creating an extremely ambiguous atmosphere.
"I know." Xiao Moyan whispered softly against Ji Xingzhi's lips, and his words sounded like a kiss.
Ji Xingzhi's face flushed, and she didn't care that Xiao Moyan liked her even without saying it.
But...she was probably just confused by the kiss and forgot to care.
