Xiao An held onto the crescent-shaped door, and watched in shock as Pang Yi poured a bucket of water he had just brought up from the well over her head. Then, as if he was still not satisfied, he quickly drew another bucket of water and poured it over himself again...
"Pang, Pang Yi," Xiao An was really frightened. Even though it was the hottest time of the year in June, it was not very hot in Ningguta. Besides, the well water was really cold. Xiao An was really afraid that Pang Yi would get sick from the water. While Pang Yi was fetching water, Xiao An hurried over and held Pang Yi's wet hand. She looked at him anxiously. "Pang Yi, what's wrong with you? Did you... catch a cold? Why is your body so hot?"
Yes, Pang Yi's hands were very hot. Even though he had just poured two buckets of water on himself, Pang Yi's hands were still very hot. When Xiao An touched them, they became even hotter.
"Go back to the house." Pang Yi tried hard not to look sideways. He looked up and stared at the plum tree beside the well.
When the house was being renovated, Xiao An asked him to bring the plum tree planted in the pottery jar. He planted it in the yard. He was not a person who could plant flowers and grass. He dug a hole next to the well and planted the tree. Later, Xiao An came and saw it, and got angry with him for it. Xiao An originally planned to plant the plum tree in front of the bedroom window in the backyard, thinking that she would be able to see it when she woke up every morning and opened the window. Who knew Pang Yi was so unromantic? But now Xiao An looked at the plum tree with green branches and leaves standing gracefully by the well, and she didn't think it was ugly at all.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiao An felt that something was wrong with Pang Yi. Not only was his body very hot, but his mood today was also very different from usual. Since coming to Ningguta, Pang Yi has been more talkative and cheerful than before, and he talks even more when he is with Xiao An. But today Pang Yi was too quiet, especially when he was talking. He didn't even look at Xiao An. His face was not very good, but gloomy, as if he had returned to the past. When the two were still confronting each other, Xiao An was very uneasy. She grabbed Pang Yi's wet sleeve and whispered, "Pang Yi, are you feeling uncomfortable? If you are, you must tell me."
Pang Yi suddenly shook off Xiao An's hand. While looking at Xiao An's shocked and hurt face, he wiped his face vigorously. He had never been so embarrassed before. He was no longer an ignorant boy. He had survived the most difficult days of a young man. Such things had never been a problem for him. But ever since he had been in love with Xiao An, Pang Yi felt that he had become much dirtier. When he looked at the girl's white and tender ears, he would have wild thoughts. When he looked at her smooth hair, he would still have wild thoughts. Even when he just listened to Xiao An's soft voice, he would still have wild thoughts. When he was eighteen or nineteen years old, when he was the most impulsive and absurd, he had never been so dirty-minded as he is now. Pang Yi was really distressed and guilty. So since Xiao An moved in, he began to deliberately reduce the time he spent alone with Xiao An. It was really too exhausting.
"Pang Yi, what do you mean by this?" Xiao An looked at Pang Yi with an aggrieved face. She sniffed and said hurtly, "Do you dislike me? Are you going to regret it? Do you not want to marry me anymore?"
A few days ago, Pang Yi and Xiao An went to the mountain to worship the Buddha and asked a master in the temple to match their horoscopes. The wedding date was set for September 12.
"I... I'm not," Pang Yi said hurriedly, but he was tongue-tied at the moment, and he felt guilty to begin with, so he stuttered as soon as he opened his mouth, "I I I..."
"What?" Xiao An suddenly became even sadder, her eyes were full of tears, "You usually speak well, why are you stuttering now? It shows that you lied to me, you regret it! You don't want to marry me anymore!"
Pang Yi was so confused when he saw Xiao An's appearance that he wanted to hug her and comfort her. However, when he saw her slender neck and white shoulders, he didn't dare to take a step forward. He just stood there timidly: "I, I, I... I didn't do that."
