He smiled knowingly and wiped her mouth with a tissue.
After her mouth was clean, Xia Xi leaned back and continued to eat the skewers, leaning back in her chair. She praised him again, "That's so thoughtful." She held up a skewer in her hand and said, "Wouldn't you like to try it?"
The lamb skewers and beef skewers looked very similar after being grilled. Xia Xi took a look and suddenly was not sure whether it was beef or lamb. He tasted it first, carefully identified it, and confirmed that it was lamb before handing it over.
Xu Yanfeng held her wrist and lifted it up, then took a bite of the place where she had just bitten.
Xia Xi asked him, "How is it?" as if she had grilled the skewers.
Xu Yanfeng said modestly: "Not bad."
He released her wrists, returned to his original position, and continued to grill her corn.
Although the two were alone, their gazes inevitably fell on them as they chatted. Their words couldn't be heard, but their every move was captured and recorded by dozens of eyes. Those silent scenes only served to evoke more imagination, sweetness, and envy.
Cheng Manyi, who was dizzy, had a stuffy nose and coughed, witnessed those scenes and didn't know whether his body or his heart felt worse.

We originally planned to spend the night on the top of the mountain so that we could watch the stars after dark. When choosing a tent, we deliberately chose the one with a transparent roof, but Xu Yanfeng said it was not very safe and it would be better to go back to the B&B to sleep.
His words carry weight, and once he speaks, no one will contradict him.
At dusk, everyone picked up the rubbish they had made, packed up the things they had brought with them, and headed down the mountain in a mighty procession. Someone started singing a love song, and everyone joined in because it was so familiar to them.
The singing never stopped all the way, floating in the wind and reaching the other side of the mountain.
Xia Xi was carrying a bag, empty; all her things were with Xu Yanfeng. She put her hands in her pockets, strolled leisurely, and contemplated a trick that Xu Yanfeng didn't know about.
Everyone ate too much barbecue and was not very hungry at night. After returning to the B&B, the chef made some farm dishes and boiled wild vegetable porridge. Those who wanted to eat could go to the restaurant, and those who didn’t want to eat could stay in the room and rest.
Xia Xi invited Xu Yanfeng to the restaurant. They each drank a small bowl of delicious porridge and took a walk around the B&B. At around eight o'clock, they each returned to their respective rooms.
Feng Xiaolai had already taken a shower and was leaning on the bed playing with his mobile phone. He put earphones in his ears for fear of disturbing Xia Xi.
Xia Xi took a shower and changed into a nightgown with suspenders. It was cold at night, so she put on a matching robe. She walked to Feng Xiaolai's bed, took off her headphones, and whispered, "Remember to lock the door. I'm leaving."
Feng Xiaolai was watching a variety show, and before he could hide his smile, he asked, "Aren't you coming back?"
"Shhh."
Xia Xi did not give a direct answer. She put her index finger on her lips as a gesture of silence, blinked, picked up her phone and left the room, leaving Feng Xiaolai stunned.
