"That's true."
Mo Shisheng still felt that Jiu Mo's words made a lot of sense.
Seeing Jiu Mo raise his finger to point to the little bit of crimson under his eye, Mo Shisheng couldn't help but raise his hand to touch the corner of his left eye as well, and said softly, "Although we are destined to meet, there is no need to trouble you to help me gather herbs."
"If you keep doing this to your forearm, the wound will just stay there forever."
Upon hearing this, Jiu Mo frowned slightly, quite dissatisfied with Mo Shisheng's indifferent attitude.
"It's alright."
Mo Shisheng smiled slightly. "I'm waiting for it to get dark. If you have something to do, you can leave now."
"Wait until it gets dark?"
Jiu Mo's gaze fell on Mo Shisheng. He felt that the girl had an absolutely beautiful face and a slightly cold temperament, but she also gave off a faint illusion of a peaceful and serene life.
Despite having just experienced such a terrible ordeal, she was now so calm, as if she hadn't taken it to heart at all.
"You can go now if you have something to do. Thank you for your help today."
Mo Shisheng smiled and tilted her head slightly to look at Jiu Mo. "You give me a very familiar feeling. Although I don't know who you are, let's have a good chat next time we have time?"
Sensing that Jiu Mo was considering leaving, Mo Shisheng repeatedly asked him to leave.
At that moment, Jiu Mo had no intention of staying any longer. He lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Take care."
"good."
Mo Shisheng chuckled softly, slowly turning her gaze away, staring blankly at the unidentified wildflower in front of her.

After Jiu Mo left, he quickly took out a mirror from his pocket, raised his hand and used his spiritual power on the mirror. The mirror immediately displayed the scene from when Bei Rao and he first met...
In the sweltering summer, the fish in the pond couldn't stand the high temperature in the water and poked their heads out. Bubbles of all sizes kept rising and falling on the surface of the water.
Bei Rao, dressed in a pink dress, sat on the grass. Her face was still young and innocent, yet she already possessed a captivating beauty.
Seemingly finding the bubbles rising on the water's surface interesting, she bent down with a faint smile and picked up a few pebbles from the ground, placing them in her palm.
One piece at a time was gently tossed into the water, creating tiny ripples on the surface.
The long branches of the willow tree drooped down to its sides, swaying gently in the slightly warm breeze.
A seemingly mischievous gust of wind blew against Bei Rao's cheek, tickling her.
Bei Rao couldn't resist reaching out and grabbing the mischievous branch. With a slight tug, she pulled the whole thing down.
"Let's make a hat."
Bei Rao muttered something to herself, then lowered her eyes and began to carefully weave a hat with willow branches.
Her small, fair hands were incredibly nimble; the willow branches twirled around in her hands, and soon, a hat was successfully woven.
Bei Rao held the hat in front of her and examined it closely, feeling that something was missing. Then, out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a small flower beside her, plucked it off, and decorated the hat with it.
The hat instantly looked much prettier.
Bei Rao nodded in satisfaction, gazing at the bubbles still rising in the water, and said softly, "I'll give you the one I wove."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bei Rao threw the hat in her hand into the pond.
With a "whoosh" of water, Bei Rao was slightly taken aback, and looked up with a puzzled expression.
In that instant, his gaze seemed to freeze on one spot, unable to look away, his eyes sparkling with a star-like luster.
