Chapter 32, 32nd Beam of Light: "Face to Abs".
Song Xingyun savored his words and swallowed the last bite with difficulty.
What's going on here? She drank his unopened water, he drank the water she had drunk from, and then she drank the water he had drunk from... resulting in two indirect kisses!
“I…we’re all so familiar with each other, right…” Song Xingyun had already read the random reply.
Yu Mushang continued patting the dog's head, "So Assistant Song thinks he's that close to the boss? Could it be that he'll be sleeping in the same bed with the boss tomorrow?"
What is he saying?! Am I that kind of person?!
Song Xingyun's face flushed. Suddenly, a childish voice came from beside her. It was a little girl of about eight or nine years old, who was squatting next to Changming and Baisui. "They are so cute, sister, can I touch them?"
She was practically Song Xingyun's savior! "Of course you can, they won't bite, you can touch them as much as you want, I'll protect you."
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Yu Mushang and found that the man's unseen eyes were meeting hers, as if he were looking at her.
Yu Mushang was pondering her words. Touching her casually? It was indeed something she was capable of doing. Would she do that to other people? Just thinking about it made him feel uncomfortable; some feelings were indeed hard to ignore.
The little girl was very bold, and with Song Xingyun crouching down to protect her, she actually petted the two dogs a few times. "They're so well-behaved."
The little girl was at an innocent age. "They look so alike, how old are they?"
When Song Xingyun answered, she glanced at Yu Mushang, "They're all seven years old." If he could see them, he probably would also think that longevity and a hundred years look the same, right? In that case, would he recognize her?
The little girl probably didn't understand what a seven-year-old dog meant. "Wow, they're younger than me, they're still babies."
Song Xingyun smiled but remained silent; a seven-year-old dog is no longer a baby.
Bai Sui kept rubbing against Yu Mushang's leg. The little girl had noticed him long ago, but because of his cold expression, she chose to talk to Song Xingyun instead. Now, she dared to ask him, "Brother, why aren't you saying anything?"
Yu Mushang was somewhat taken aback after confirming that she was speaking to him. He pursed his lips before speaking, "You should call me uncle."
The little girl wasn't scared anymore when he paid attention to her. She tilted her head and said, "But you are my brother, a very young and handsome brother." Yu Mushang was dressed casually today and really did look like a male college student.
Song Xingyun chuckled, "I think you're right, he really is a handsome guy." She didn't deny that her words were partly meant to comfort him and make him forgive her.
But she still felt that her boss was a bit old-fashioned. So there are people who don't like being called younger? She remembered that the little girl had called her "sister" before, and she had accepted it without any qualms.
The little girl noticed that Bai Sui was wearing clothes different from Changming's, pointed to something, and asked curiously, "What is this? It looks like a lamp? Does it light up?"
Yu Mushang skillfully touched the spot the little girl had mentioned on Bai Sui's body. "It's a light. Turning it on at night will allow passersby to see it clearly, so it won't bump into its owner in the dark." As he spoke, he turned on the light and showed it to her.
Children are full of questions, and she immediately asked the next one, "What about it? Why isn't it wearing this dress?" "It" refers to longevity.
Changming seemed to understand and started nuzzling against Song Xingyun, as if introducing her to its master.
Yu Mushang spoke casually, as if he were talking about something ordinary, “Because it doesn’t need to, its owner can see.” He stroked the smooth fur of the hundred-year-old dog under his hand, guessing that the little girl didn’t quite understand, and added, “It’s a guide dog.”
The little girl's mouth dropped open. She knew what a "guide dog" was, but this was the first time she had ever encountered one.
She blinked her eyes and began to carefully observe Yu Mushang, asking cautiously, "Brother, can't you see?" She genuinely hadn't noticed; in her memory, blind people's eyes didn't look like this. Yu Mushang looked no different from a normal person.
Yu Mushang smiled faintly, "Doesn't seem like it?"
The little girl nodded. "Yes! Your eyes are super, super, super beautiful." She even used "super" three times, which was probably the only way she could think of to prove the truth of her words at her age.
Yu Mushang could sense that his smile had widened, extending to the corners of his eyes.
But seeing that smile made Song Xingyun feel uneasy. He shouldn't have been like that, nor should he have been limited to that.
Song Xingyun listened silently to the sound of her grief, bowing her head and pulling weeds, afraid of revealing her emotions.
Yes, he has incredibly beautiful eyes, and she knows that too.
Having apparently not heard from Song Xingyun again, Yu Mushang asked the little girl, "Where's the auntie who was talking to you just now?"
"Auntie?" The little girl was confused for a second, then nudged Song Xingyun, who had just finished her emo phase. "Sister, is brother talking about you?"
Song Xingyun: ...
She also heard the man say that the sadness had long been left behind.
Auntie? Your whole family are aunties! I'll stay eighteen forever!
This man is more handsome when he doesn't talk! Isn't it better to be a quiet, handsome man? Huh?
Oh no! Song Xingyun immediately dismissed the idea. Giving him sight but making him mute was too cruel, unacceptable, unacceptable.
She put on a smile and said, "Boss, I'm here."
Yu Mushang was relieved when he heard her voice and said "Oh" and "It's good that you didn't go far. I was afraid you might accidentally touch someone else outside, and then I would have to pay compensation."
He admitted that he really wanted to know certain answers and, being petty, tried every possible way to find them.
Song Xingyun: ?
What nonsense was he spouting? She sensed the sarcasm in his words, but what could she do? Explain, of course! "Hehe, how could that be, boss? You're making me sound like... a law-abiding citizen, someone who's never even held a boy's hand before!"
Yu Mushang trusted her for the time being, asked about the time, and then reminded her, "It's time to feed them."
Song Xingyun was also amazed at how quickly time had passed. Indeed, moments with a high "happiness" content always fly by. Fortunately, she hadn't forgotten to bring food for the two little ones when she went out. She even took out two rice bowls from her bag. "Time to eat!"
Yes, she remembered to bring the dog bowl, but not her own water.
The little girl found it fascinating and asked, "Sister, can I help you?"
Having a little helper was of course a joy for Song Xingyun, and the two of them, one big and one small, started "cooking." Yu Mushang listened intently as she gently explained the steps.
It was called "cooking," but it was really just pouring ready-made food into a bowl, but the little girl was still very happy.
Longevity and a hundred years old rice were eaten in no time, leaving the person who "cooked" feeling a sense of accomplishment. Song Xingyun wiped the bowl clean with a wet wipe, put it in a bag, and put it back in her bag. The whole process was like an assembly line.
A voice called out from afar, probably from the little girl's family. Song Xingyun saw her turn around and wave to them, "Go back right away."
After the little girl finished speaking, she turned back and touched the longevity and health symbols several times with reluctance, saying, "Eat well and grow up quickly."
Hearing these words from a child was somewhat endearing, and Song Xingyun patted her head, saying, "I'll answer for them, and you too."
But the little girl sighed again, "Let's grow up slowly, because we'll get old when we grow up." What a precocious child!
The little girl suddenly looked up at Yu Mushang, her expression and words utterly innocent, "Brother, will your eyes be able to see again when they get old?"
These unexpected words, like a pebble thrown into water, created ripples in both of their hearts.
Song Xingyun looked at him, and the heat that had been suppressed in her eyes almost surged up again.
Yu Mushang smiled faintly, "Maybe."
The little girl's family called again, and she quickly got up to say goodbye. "Goodbye, brothers and sisters, puppies. It was so nice to meet you all." Then she pointed to the sun in the sky. "I just made a wish to the sun. Brother, your eyes will definitely get better! Bye-bye."
Making a wish upon the sun is something I've never heard of before.
As Yu Mushang listened to the receding footsteps, he pointed at someone who had been silent for too long today, "Assistant Song, you."
Before he could finish speaking, Song Xingyun reflexively interrupted him, "I didn't touch anyone! I was also making a wish to the sun!"
"Boss, you will definitely regain your sight."
"This sunlight is so dazzling, it's definitely responding to me, it can happen!"
She wished she had magic to instantly heal his eyes, or that she were Ma Liang with his magic paintbrush to draw a Yu Mushang who could see...
Just as she was letting her imagination run wild, she heard the man's sharp comment: "Childish."
Song Xingyun clenched her fist and waved it a few times in front of him. Yu Mushang didn't notice, but it startled Changming and Baisui. Their two pairs of blinking dog eyes seemed to say,
"Are you out of your mind?"
"If you want to get fired, don't drag me into it."
Yu Mushang was unhappy that she was ignoring him, thinking that she hadn't heard him clearly, so he repeated himself, this time even raising his voice a bit, "Childish."
Song Xingyun, "unable to bear it any longer," reached out and covered his thin lips with her palm. "Ah!"
She was the one who covered someone's mouth, and she was also the one who let out a gasp.
The reason was simple: Song Xingyun was quick, but she misjudged the distance between them; her arms weren't long enough! She didn't even have time to feel hatred!
She was originally half-squatting, but because there was nothing to support her in front of her, she knelt down, and her unsteady upper body fell straight towards the man.
The hand that was originally aimed at his mouth is now pressed below the man's collarbone.
Yu Mushang felt a familiar sweet fragrance wafting into his nose, and then his unprepared body fell backward because of her "impact". He was sitting at the entrance of the tent and was pushed down into the tent by her.
As Yu Mushang lay down, Song Xingyun's hand slid down his body and stopped. Fortunately, it wasn't on a sensitive area.
But the next second she felt something was wrong, because she felt a tense body beneath her...
Her face was pressed against his abs...
