Mu Wanting struggled and pushed Shen Xinglan away, but Shen Xinglan held the back of her head and kissed her even deeper.
There was a heavy thud at the door. Mu Wanting turned her head and saw Zhao Zhiyuan standing at the door with a deathly pale face, looking extremely unwell.
His lips trembled, and his eyes were filled with sorrow.
Noticing Mu Wanting's distraction, Shen Xinglan frowned.
He then struck out with his palm, causing Zhao Zhiyuan to stagger back a few steps, and the door he had just opened was closed again.
Shen Xinglan pressed her lips to hers, smiling smugly.
"Now, he probably won't want to go see the meteor shower with you."
Mu Wanting frowned, knowing that Shen Xinglan was doing it on purpose.
When Shen Xinglan kissed her, she turned her head to avoid him. His lips landed on her delicate earlobe, and he mischievously gave it a light bite.
Mu Wanting's cheeks flushed instantly, and she moved to the side.
"Shen Xinglan, I really don't feel like it."
She had just learned that her third brother was not dead, but in a state of suspended animation. Her mind was in turmoil, and she had no time to be intimate with him.
Seeing that her complexion was indeed not good, Shen Xinglan stopped fooling around and instead took her hand.
"Let's go, I'll take you to see the meteor shower."
Mu Wanting rolled her eyes: "I don't want to watch."
"You don't want to watch the meteor shower with me, do you want to watch it with him?"
After saying that, he put his arm around her waist and led her out of the room. Zhao Zhiyuan was still standing at the door, looking lost and dejected.
When he saw Mu Wanting, his eyes reddened, filled with complex emotions and regret.
Shen Xinglan had already picked her up and, with a few leaps, carried her to the rooftop of the highest building in Qingfeng Valley, where Zhao Zhiyuan could only watch longingly.
The meteor shower was beautiful; this was the first time Mu Wanting had ever seen such a large-scale meteor shower.
The convicts in the valley were also overjoyed, and cheers filled the air. They temporarily forgot their suffering and the disaster.
Shen Xinglan looked at Mu Wanting, whose eyes were full of innocent joy, his Adam's apple bobbed, his eyes were warm, and he placed a kiss on her forehead.
This kiss carried a sense of cherishing.
Mu Wanting was stunned for a moment, wondering what was wrong with Shen Xinglan. She would rather he kiss her in a fit of rage than disturb her inner peace.
Soon, Shen Xinglan's gaze traveled from her forehead to the tip of her nose, finally settling on Mu Wanting's rosy lips, thick and glossy as if they could be stretched into strands.
Just as he was about to kiss her lips, Mu Wanting raised her hand to cover her lips, and Shen Xinglan kissed the back of her hand instead.
He frowned, feeling uneasy.
"what you do?"
Mu Wanting had gone to great lengths, even resorting to drugging him, to get into his bed. How come she's rejecting him now?
The atmosphere was so nice.
Mu Wanting didn't let go of her hand, and her voice sounded muffled.
"No, Shen Xinglan, no, I told you, I don't want to kiss you."
Shen Xinglan took a deep breath and her gaze involuntarily turned to Zhao Zhiyuan under the roof. A mocking smile appeared on his lips.
"Is it because of him that you won't let me kiss you?"
Mu Wanting frowned: "What does this have to do with him?"
Shen Xinglan didn't want to talk anymore. He had seen Mu Wanting and Zhao Zhiyuan go to the mountain to see the peach blossoms before. The two of them were chatting and laughing, and seemed very close.
Zhao Zhiyuan kissed her cheek, and she didn't flinch; instead, she blushed.
Just imagining that scene made him feel like his chest was about to overflow with bitterness.
How could she be so shameless, letting other men kiss her so easily?
Even though she and Zhao Zhiyuan had already exchanged marriage certificates and were engaged, they weren't married yet, so how could she kiss him on the cheek!
Noticing that Shen Xinglan's mood had dropped, Mu Wanting didn't bother to coax her.
After the meteor shower passed, Mu Wanting saw a meteorite fall into a ravine not far away.
Her eyes lit up, and she immediately flew off the roof and headed towards the ravine.
The meteorite looked about the size of a small car in her spatial dimension. After checking that no one was around, Mu Wanting put the meteorite into her spatial dimension.
Turning around, she came face to face with Shen Xinglan standing behind the tree trunk.
She was startled, but seeing that Shen Xinglan's expression was normal, she didn't know if he had seen it or not.
She tentatively opened her mouth.
"I came here to pick wild fruit, but there's nothing here but wild fruit."
Shen Xinglan gave a faint "hmm".
“On my way here, I saw more wild berries on that side.”
Mu Wanting was certain that Shen Xinglan hadn't seen it; otherwise, given his personality, he would definitely have pressed for answers.
She left without any burden. Seeing that Shen Xinglan was still standing there, she was worried that he would see the crater made by the meteorite, so she took his hand and left.
Shen Xinglan looked at the two holding hands, her eyes deep and unfathomable.
Then my gaze fell on the charred pit.
He wasn't mistaken; he saw Mu Wanting standing there with his own eyes, and then that large meteorite just vanished.
Thinking back on everything that had happened, Shen Xinglan had a hunch that Mu Wanting's secret was related to the missing meteorite.
After picking the fruit, they went back to sleep. Mu Wanting went into the house first and then locked Shen Xinglan outside.
Shen Xinglan was so angry he laughed. Mu Wanting actually had a day when she would reject him.
However, when he thought about the lost meteorite, he had a different idea.
Perhaps she's afraid her secrets will be exposed, so she's deliberately keeping her distance from me.
Otherwise, how could she bear to part with it?
Without Shen Xinglan sleeping with her, Mu Wanting had a rare good night's sleep, and then went to her space for a visit.
The meteorite had cooled down; it was a reddish stone a moment ago, but now it was a black stone. She put on gloves and touched it, finding it to be a very hard metal.
This stuff would probably be very sturdy if used to forge weapons.
Just then, the melodious chimes of a bell rang out from her space once again, stirring a surge of emotion within her.
She was outside during the last space upgrade.
This time, she "saw" the ripples of the bells.
The bell tolled from the very top of the center of the space, and as the sound grew closer, she saw changes in the space.
Wherever the bell tolled, plants grew faster, the soil became more fertile, and even the thick fog spread outwards.
Mu Wanting saw a small pool of water, about the size of a washbasin. The water was milky white and clearly very nutritious.
She walked over, picked up a mouthful of the soup, and drank it.
In an instant, I felt as if my body had been cleansed, and I felt refreshed and slightly warm.
Later on, she felt her body getting hotter and hotter.
She sat cross-legged on the bed and circulated her internal energy. After a while, she felt her sluggish meridians flow smoothly.
Her body was covered with a layer of dark substance and had a fishy, foul smell.
Mu Wanting immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower, and it took her two showers to get clean.
However, her body also became fairer, and even the scars left from before faded considerably.
She struck a tree with her palm. In the past, she couldn't project her internal energy outwards, but now, the palm made the leaves shake a few times.
Her eyes lit up; this white soup was simply a treasure.
