Xiang Hengxi had been hanging out with a group of men since he was a child, and apart from his younger sister, he really didn't know much about the other girls.
He didn't know where to go on a date with a girl. This afternoon, he heard his sister invite Xu Ziyu to go strawberry picking in a couple of days, and he figured that most girls would like to eat strawberries.
Moreover, the aroma of strawberries is so strong that she can smell it even if she can't see them.
Plus, this strawberry patch belongs to his younger sister, so picking strawberries here won't disturb their time together. That's why I brought her here, but I really don't know if she'll like it.
“If you don’t like it, we’ll go somewhere else.” Xiang Hengxi took her hand.
"No need." Jing An'an pulled his hand back. Although she didn't quite understand why he brought her to pick strawberries, it was better than going to a hotel.
"Then you stand here first, I'll go get the tools." Xiang Hengxi cupped her head and kissed her, then deftly went to get the basket.
When he turned around, he saw Jing An'an already squatting down in the strawberry field, as if smelling their fragrance, quiet and beautiful like a painting.
He walked quietly to her side and unexpectedly kissed her cheek.
Jing An'an was startled and playfully slapped him.
Xiang Hengxi couldn't help but laugh; he felt she was perfectly embodying the saying "spare the rod and spoil the child."
"Here, take this." He handed the small basket to Jing An'an.
"Why is it so quiet here? Is there no one else here?" Jing An'an felt this was illogical; there should be many people picking strawberries in Yihai City this season.
"No, this land belongs to my sister. She especially loves strawberries, so my dad got her a strawberry patch. Apart from the people who take care of it, no one comes here." Xiang Hengxi said it as if it were a matter of course, without feeling that her family spoiled her sister too much.
Jing An'an was speechless. She likes to eat strawberries, so she built a strawberry field. If she likes the moon, she would probably build a rocket to go to the moon.
She had heard Xiaomei gossip before that the men in the Shen family doted on their wives and daughters, and sure enough, it was true.
But Xiang Hengxi didn't inherit any of the good qualities of the Shen family men; all she did was bully her.
Pshaw, she must be confused. She's not his wife, why would she think that way!
"The strawberries here are irrigated with milk, so they have a milky aroma." Xiang Hengxi squatted down, picked one, and held it to her nose for her to smell.
Sure enough, there was a faint milky scent, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily curved into a slight smile.
Although she had never met his sister, she could imagine that she must be a woman like a princess, pampered and spoiled. She had only heard him mention her twice, as if they were very familiar.
"At this spot." Xiang Hengxi put his arm around her, guided her hand to a strawberry, and gently picked it.
Jing An'an couldn't help but smile. It was her first time picking strawberries. She used to find these kinds of activities boring, but now that she couldn't see, she could appreciate the beauty of these ordinary activities.
“There’s a really big one here.” Xiang Hengxi took her hand and picked another one.
“I can do it myself.” Jing An’an felt that being hugged like this was too intimate, even more embarrassing than when they did that in bed that day, as if they were really a couple in love.
"Then take your time." Xiang Hengxi reluctantly let go of her.
He agreed to let go because he felt the atmosphere was good and didn't want to upset her. In this greenhouse filled with the scent of milk and strawberries, a sweet fragrance seemed to seep into his heart, making him feel sweet.
