Chapter 37 Sweet Mouth and Love to Smile
Yan Yi came out of the bathroom carrying a basin and took out his cell phone. In a video sent by Qi Lang, a man was using a foam roller to roll a girl's calves to relax her muscles.
He pressed pause, touched the screen with his finger, and zoomed in to see the man's hand resting on her knee.
Even the measured touch made Yan Yi's heart twist, and he felt jealous of being invaded and plundered.
He stood there in a self-deprecating manner, watching the two-minute video from beginning to end, his face gloomy, and he turned a deaf ear to the boys calling him.
…
Before going to bed, the girls gathered in groups of three or four to chat.
Although the environment was harsh and the dormitory was very simple, there were not many opportunities to sleep on such a large bunk bed, and the girls found it quite novel.
Zhan Xinyue, Zhu Lianqiao, and Su Xiaojing squeezed onto Bai He's bed, sandwiching her in the middle. They announced, "Tonight, the four of us will sleep together!"
"Will there be a dormitory inspection?"
"The female instructor will come over to check later."
"Then we can stay as long as we can." After saying that, Zhu Lianqiao hugged Bai He. Seeing this, Su Xiaojing was not willing to admit defeat and said jealously, "This is my best friend! My childhood friend! Go away!"
After saying that, she also hugged Bai He's neck. Zhan Xinyue simply hugged her left and right: "My beloved concubines, I'm high. Serve me hard tonight!"
Zhu Lianqiao said, "Damn, you're addicted to playing the emperor, aren't you?"
Su Xiaojing: "Why is it so dirty?"
Bai He had just finished her shower when the three of them squeezed her into a sweat. She couldn't push them away, and she said, "Help me, can you please stop squeezing me? I can't breathe."
"Come, my beloved, I will give you artificial respiration."
Su Xiaojing blocked Zhan Xinyue's face for Bai He, "You dog emperor, get out of the way! Don't touch Sayuri. If you want favors, come to me!"
"Hahahaha!" Zhu Lianqiao laughed so hard that she fell on Bai He's legs.
At this time, Xu Li walked into the dormitory with a face mask and a basin in her hand. She came to their bed and said enviously, "I saw your dormitory's funny videos on the video account. The data is amazing."
The girls from the Foreign Languages and Journalism Departments lived on the same floor, and it was common for them to visit each other.
Bai He said: "This is the self-media homework assigned by the counselor. We are asked to run an account. The higher the data, the higher the score in the final exam."
"I see. I really envy you guys."
"What are you envious of?" Su Xiaojing said to Xu Li with a disapproving expression, "You have way more followers than us. Just a casual video of you drinking milk tea can get tens of thousands of likes."
"This was the advice Brother Qi Lang gave me during the summer vacation." When Xu Li mentioned him, her eyes lit up. "At first, I just wanted to shoot a video about my travels in Europe, but the data for each episode was not good. Brother Qi Lang said that since I am good-looking, I could try shooting some daily videos showing my face, so he filmed a personal vlog for me, and I didn't expect it to go viral."
Xu Li spoke lightly, and just a few simple sentences contained an explosion of information.
Zhan Xinyue, Xu Lianqiao, and Su Xiaojing exchanged a glance. As expected, Bai He had fallen for it. Her hands clenched the sheets tightly. "He's traveling in Europe during the holidays. Did you... go too?"
"Yes." Xu Li said with a smile, "Aunt Angelia asked him to take me with her to see the world. The people traveling with me were all his friends, and I didn't know them either. He took good care of me."
"I'm so jealous." Su Xiaojing said sarcastically, "You've seen the world now that you're here. I want to go abroad, too. It's a pity I don't have the chance to meet rich second-generations."
The words were a bit harsh, and Xu Li also heard it. The smile on her face was a bit forced, a bit aggrieved, as if she was bullied.
Zhu Lianqiao was a career-minded person and didn't seem to catch their banter. She just asked with great interest, "That bus stop vlog where your data was the most explosive was shot by Qi Lang. The camerawork and composition were so professional!"
"Yes," Xu Li said, "He's such a great photographer. There's no need for post-production, not even beautification. The sun was amazing that day, too."
Bai He said calmly, "He's very good at taking pictures."
Zhu Lianqiao: "Once I have finished writing the new script, I want to invite him to help shoot the next video in our dormitory!"
"No problem." Xu Li said with a smile, "I'll go ask him if he has time..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhu Lianqiao grabbed Bai He's arm and said, "Little Lily, go and tell your story for us and ask him to take a video for us."
The smile on Xu Li's face froze in embarrassment.
Zhan Xinyue and Su Xiaojing gave her an affirmative look that said "king bomb".
Xu Li returned to her dorm. Su Xiaojing rolled her eyes and murmured, "What are you pretending for?"
Bai He hurriedly pulled her, fearing that Xu Li, who had not yet walked out of the door, would hear it.
"Come on, she's already coming over to my face and opening it wide, why are you still afraid of embarrassment?"
"It's okay, just talk normally."
Zhan Xinyue made a seven with her chin: "Based on my countless experiences and meticulous observations of people, she came here to test our Xiao Baihe's attitude and see if Xiao Baihe is interested in Qi Lang."
Bai He: "Then I performed pretty well."
Zhan Xinyue: "It's okay, the advantage of being quiet at times like this is reflected, but..."
She looked at Zhu Lianqiao and Su Xiaojing, "But you have two stupid teammates. The sour smell is almost unbearable. Even a fool can smell it."
“…”
Su Xiaojing quickly said, "Who can stand this? Listen to what she said. She's going abroad and filming a video. It's pissing me off!"
Bai He: "I don't call myself that."
Su Xiaojing: "At a time like this, you still have the mood to correct me? Be a little more vigilant. Your childhood friend is about to be snatched away by someone."
Bai He said indifferently: "No matter who he is with, he is still my friend."
"Well, after all these years of training, you have a big heart."
Bai He lay down and looked at the ceiling: "I'm used to it."
As long as she doesn't have any extravagant expectations, Qi Lang's love affair won't hurt her.
Soon the female instructor came to the dormitory to check and reiterated the rules to them: they must go to bed before 10 o'clock, are not allowed to chat during sleep, and are not allowed to make any noise that would disturb others' rest.
However, it seemed that they also knew that these girls had experienced a carefree and wonderful life during the holiday, and it was probably impossible for them to fall asleep obediently at 10 o'clock, so they were not prohibited from playing with their mobile phones, as long as they did not disturb others' rest.
In bed, Bai He sent a text message to Yan Yi, telling him that Qi Lang had inexplicably opened fire on the instructor today.
Immediately, Yan Yi sent her a video, which was exactly the scene that Qi Lang had just taken.
1: "He didn't delete it completely. Remember to check his phone tomorrow."
Lily: “…”
1: "Don't worry, I will delete it."
Bai He was suddenly speechless, feeling a little guilty, as if he had been caught.
Obviously nothing happened, but because of this video, it seems like there is a ghost.
1: "I have a few sermons to give. Do you want to hear them?"
Lily: "Are you also trying to say that Instructor Fu has ulterior motives towards me?"
1: "That's not the case, but do you know why university teacher-student relationships are strictly prohibited?"
Lily: "You say."
1. "University teachers and students have the privilege of knowing students' regular grades, final scores, and many other aspects of their relationships. Once a relationship develops, the stronger party will inevitably oppress the weaker party, either explicitly or implicitly. Therefore, relationships with unequal power are abnormal. Not only is it unfair to the weaker party, it also undermines fairness for everyone else."
Looking at his words, Bai He seemed to understand.
During the military training, many female students fell in love with the instructors, but discipline strictly prohibited instructors from falling in love with female students. Even though Fu Siwei had known her before and had a good impression of her, during the military training, Fu Siwei, as an instructor, was in charge of the military training results of the entire class, and even the recommended positions for the military parade.
His favoritism towards her will cause unfairness to other students.
…
In the next few days, Bai He really began to avoid private contact with Fu Siwei.
A few times after dinner, Fu Siwei came to her and wanted to give her some snacks or fruits that she couldn't eat during military training. Bai He either refused or asked him to give them to the sisters. Anyway, she didn't want them.
Fu Siwei noticed her intention to avoid suspicion and stopped forcing her.
Qi Lang witnessed all this, and when he passed by Fu Siwei, he walked with the wind.
I thought, I still need to have the skills to translate words.
He walked over to Bai He, who was stretching her calf muscles on the horizontal bar, and threw her a can of Coke. Bai He hurriedly caught it and asked in surprise, "Where did you get this?"
Quite powerful.
Qi Langman said nonchalantly: "There are many senior students willing to bring them to me."
"You're still blaming me!" Bai He said dissatisfiedly, "Go seduce the female instructor yourself!"
Qi Lang covered her mouth with one hand from behind: "If you want me to die, then speak louder."
Bai He felt the boy's strong fingertips with a bit of cold and moist moisture. Her heart was beating fast and she pushed him away unnaturally.
Qi Lang took her Coke, opened it with one hand, took a sip, and handed it to her.
Bai He didn't object and took it and took a small sip. The cool and sweet feeling spread throughout her body.
"Just this one bottle, save it for later."
"How else can I save money? Take it home and spend the night?"
"That's not necessary. It won't taste good if the gas is gone." Qi Lang took it again and took a sip. Bai He pulled his arm: "Leave some for me. You finished it in one gulp!"
The two shared the bottle of ice cola that they had obtained by sacrificing their beauty.
After finishing the drink, Bai He seemed to remember something and quickly said, "By the way, give me your phone!"
Qi Lang didn't ask her what she was doing. He took out his cell phone and handed it to her. He took the last sip of his drink and looked at her sideways.
I saw her little hand poking on the screen, poking into the encrypted document, and prompting for the password.
She looked at Qi Lang, who turned around and made a jump shot, throwing the deflated empty bottle and can into the trash can.
"What's the password?" she asked.
"What?"
"Encrypted document, open it and show it to me."
"This is my private information, are you sure you want to see it?"
"You still have the video you secretly filmed of me and the instructor. I want to check it!"
"No." Someone denied it without blushing or beating his heart. "You deleted them all."
"Why are you pretending? Yan Yi said you still have it."
"You little bastard, betrayed me."
"Hurry up, open it!" Bai He ordered.
Qi Lang muttered unhappily: "The password is my birthday."
Bai He curled his lips, lowered his head and typed in 0808, commenting, "I have to say, your birth date is quite good, and it has a very good meaning."
"Of course, I chose it myself."
"Really?"
Qi Lang narrowed his eyes: "You believe this too."
Bai He was too lazy to pay attention to him. She went into the document and found the video of her and Fu Siwei in the recent collection. She clicked to delete it completely.
There were other videos, and the file names were a bunch of garbled characters. Bai He was afraid that he had filmed other content, so she clicked on it to watch just in case. As soon as the picture came out, her heart stopped and her breathing stopped.
The picture is clearly a large-scale European and American two-person sport.
The shouts of "Oh, yeah, oh, yeah" came one after another, and Bai He's face turned red like cherries in an instant.
Qi Lang snatched the phone away, turned off the video, and said speechlessly, "I told you not to mess around."
Bai He frowned in disdain and said with a tut-tut sound, "You... have such a strong taste."
"That's nothing." Qi Lang said lightly, "Your precious brother wants to see it too, even more than I do."
"Yan Yi won't read this nonsense."
"How do you know?"
"Because..." Bai He chuckled, "Yan Yi and his friends only watch anime, not real people."
"So he's a pervert."
"Nonsense, watching anime makes you a pervert?"
"Do you know that there are many abnormal human sexual positions and settings in anime? There are even human and animal sex. Your brother likes this, isn't he a pervert?"
"Everyone has different tastes." Bai He is actually a very open-minded girl. "You look at European and American people, and you still have the nerve to call them perverts."
"Okay, okay, I'm just protecting him." Qi Lang didn't want to talk to her about such a sinful topic. Besides, he was afraid that she would react again. "What birthday gift are you going to give me?"
"Surprise, can't tell you in advance."
"My birthday is almost a month away, what kind of surprise can there be?"
Bai He thought about it and decided it wouldn't hurt to tell him, "It's the game cartridge for Weird World 3. I asked someone to buy it for me, and it's shipping from the US! There was a slight delay with the international shipping order, but it should arrive after military training. This game hasn't even been released in China yet, and I thought you'd like it."
As she spoke, she looked at the boy's face, which didn't seem to show any excitement or surprise, and asked hesitantly, "You don't like it?"
“I like it. I’ve been looking forward to this game for a long time and have always wanted to get it…”
In fact, Qi Lang bought this game when he went abroad for summer vacation.
But he still used his acting skills as an 18th-tier celebrity, "Sayuri, you understand me so well! I'm so happy, I'm about to pass out!"
Bai He: ...
Can you be more exaggerated?
"So, you've already bought it?" she asked with a little disappointment.
"No, how could I buy it? I don't have any channels."
"Stop pretending, Qi Lang."
They grew up together and they don't know each other.
Qi Lang insisted, "I really didn't buy it. Really."
Bai He felt a little lost and sighed.
Because they were so familiar with each other, she knew all of his preferences. Even the idea of a birthday surprise turned into an awkward situation. "If I had known earlier, I would have let you bring it up. My gifts have already been the same as yours three times. For your twelfth and fifteenth birthdays, I bought you double."
"This shows that you understand me. No one in this world understands me better than you. This is the best gift."
Qi Lang put his arm around Bai He's thin shoulders and patted her gently, "With a friend like this, what else could I ask for?"
Bai He finally felt a little happier and looked at him infatuatedly: "Qi Lang, that's not what you meant."
"Well, you want me to tell you the truth?"
"No way."
The little girl blushed and reached out to push his face away, but he insisted on coming closer and said to her, "I'm so lucky to have such a wife..."
"Shut up, you scumbag." Bai He pinched his lips, "Don't tease your best friend!"
…
That night, some people tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
She lay in bed, listening to the soft chirping of insects in the silence outside the window. What lingered in her mind was... Qi Lang's eyes.
Although I had already decided to let go, my mood began to fluctuate again.
It was all just an illusion, or maybe he was just teasing her.
Flirting with girls has almost become his subconscious action. If a pretty girl looks at him a few more times on the street, he will smile at her, like a butterfly radiating charm everywhere.
Who can get his true heart?
Can she get it?
Bai He remembered Li Man’s words. Yes, every girl thinks that she is the most special one. If she can enter his heart, even a prodigal son can turn back.
But in fact, this is just a naive fantasy.
Bai He suppressed the slightest ripple in his heart.
Twenty days of closed military training came to an end, and Bai He gradually got used to this high-intensity and strictly disciplined life.
During the last three days, the most rigorous stage of training, Bai He's menstrual period arrived.
For her, the pain of pelvic contractions on the first day was the most unbearable, but the pain would not go away in the following days.
She insisted on doing exercises in the early morning, but in the afternoon the flow of traffic increased and Bai He could not bear it anymore.
She quickly raised her hand and reported, explaining the situation to Instructor Fu Siwei. Fu Siwei looked at her pale face and said worriedly, "I'll tell the chief instructor to send you back."
Bai He Lianlian waved his hand: "Thank you, instructor, I can walk by myself."
After all, with so many classmates watching her, she didn't want to be involved in any scandals in the last few days.
Fu Siwei nodded: "If there are any problems, report them in time."
"Um."
Bai He held her cramping lower abdomen, frowned, and slowly walked back to the dormitory.
From a distance... Qi Lang, who was leading the team in drills as the vanguard, saw the little girl's thin body and the way she walked with her back hunched, which clearly showed that there was something wrong with her.
He frowned and shouted with full force: "Report to the instructor!"
"explain!"
"My stomach hurts, I need to go to the bathroom."
"Hold on a little longer! We're almost disbanding!"
“Ah~~”
The boy covered his stomach and let out a soul-stirring groan, causing all the girls in the row to giggle.
The instructor frowned, then let go and said, "Go quickly and come back soon."
Qi Lang handed the flag to the person next to him and jogged all the way back to the girls' dormitory building through the woods and the small hill.
Bai He lay on the bed, curled up like a baby in his mother's arms, hugging his body tightly and trembling slightly.
It’s unbelievable! The first day of menstruation is such torture!
Just as Bai He clutched the sheets tightly to endure it, a pair of hands fell on her arms. Bai He was suddenly startled and looked up.
Qi Lang, dressed in green camouflage, squatted beside her cot, sweating all over, his brow furrowed, his dark eyes looking at her worriedly: "Are you going to give birth?"
“…”
You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth.
Bai He seemed to realize something and sat up, saying in surprise, "This is the girls' dormitory! How did you get in?"
"No one stopped me." Qi Lang had no taboos.
There was no one in the girls' dormitory at the moment. It was empty except for her, so she didn't have to worry about bumping into other girls and feeling embarrassed.
"No, no, hurry up and leave! If you're caught, you'll be severely punished!" Bai He covered her abdomen with one hand and pushed him with the other. "Leave now while no one is watching."
Qi Lang didn't move at all, just looked at her worriedly: "What's wrong with you? Did you have a stomachache?"
"No, it's my period."
"Why does it hurt so much? You're sweating." He rubbed her forehead with the back of his hand.
"It's going to hurt anyway, just bear with it and it will pass."
"This won't do." Qi Lang put one hand under her armpit, picked her up without saying anything, and walked out of the dormitory building, "I'll take you to the infirmary."
"Is there an infirmary here?"
"Are you stupid? Without an infirmary, what will happen to so many students who suffer from heatstroke every day?"
"That's right."
Qi Lang held her and ran towards the infirmary across the playground under the scorching sun. Many students who were undergoing military training saw this scene.
Especially Qi Lang's instructor, who waited for a long time but his vanguard soldier did not come back from the toilet. When he turned around, he saw him running towards the infirmary with the girl in his arms, frowned and muttered -
"You bastard."
Qi Lang ran very fast. Bai He put her arms around his neck, and the skin of her arms was exposed against the hard muscles on the back of his neck.
It was so hot, her heart was being roasted by the high temperature.
She almost forgot about the menstrual pain and stared at the boy's handsome profile.
Looking from the side, his features are really deep, with his brow bones and nose bridge being particularly straight.
When you like someone, you simply cannot control the desire to possess them.
Qi Lang carried her into the infirmary. The female doctor took out an ibuprofen capsule and gave it to Bai He. Qi Lang immediately filled a paper cup with warm water and fed it to her mouth.
"You'll feel better after taking the medicine." The female doctor sat back at her desk, took a pen and signed, and instructed, "Rest well today. I'll write you a leave application."
"Thank you, doctor."
Upon hearing this, Qi Lang walked to his desk and said persistently, "This won't be over in a day or two. How about asking for a week's leave?"
The doctor glanced at him and said, "One week, the military training is over. Take the medicine and see if it hurts. If it still hurts tomorrow, I'll prescribe medicine for another day."
"How about a three-day prescription? She's in excruciating pain every time, and her reaction is very severe." Qi Lang looked at the doctor with a smile, "Sister, you are kind and beautiful, can you prescribe it for a few more days?"
It is generally difficult for people to refuse a request from a good-looking person, especially a sunny and handsome guy with a sweet mouth and a smile.
The doctor looked at Bai He's pale face and said, "How about this? I'll give you two days of leave. After that, you can directly attend the graduation ceremony. You don't need to do military training."
"Uh, thank you, doctor."
After the doctor left the ward, Bai He looked at Qi Lang unhappily and said, "Can you please stop trying to seduce girls like this?"
"I'm helping you."
"I don't need it!"
Qi Lang would not argue with her when she was sick. He pinched her face and joked, "Sorry, it's just a habit."
"You stinky scumbag." She cursed softly.
Qi Lang's hand that pinched her face fell to her chin and gently lifted it up: "Did you protect yourself from the sun?"
"Am I tanned?" Bai He quickly took out a small mirror and looked at his face.
"You have freckles." He rubbed her nose with his finger.
"Oh, these have always been there, you just didn't notice them."
“Now I’ve discovered it.”
Qi Lang stared at her, his eyes seemed to be drawn.
Being so close, Bai He couldn't stand the gaze, and her earlobes felt hot. "Hurry up and leave."
"Don't you want me to stay with you a little longer?"
Think about it, Bai He dreams about it...
Some things are addictive.
Bai He was afraid that she couldn't control her heart. If she really fell for him, she would be doomed.
Qi Lang suddenly said, "Sayuri, I want to confess my love to someone."
Bai He's heart trembled.
These words were like a wake-up call, making her wake up instantly.
Suppressing her bitterness, she pretended to be curious and asked with interest, "Who is it?"
"He's a friend of mine." Qi Lang observed her subtle expressions, not wanting to miss a single emotion. "We're quite familiar with each other, so I'm a little worried. I'm afraid that if I fail, we'll all be friends."
Xu Li?
Bai He thought to herself that they had even traveled abroad together, and Qi Lang had helped her shoot vlog videos.
He probably cares about her.
I care so much...I'm even afraid that if I fail, I won't be able to be friends anymore.
Bai He knew that Xu Li also liked Qi Lang, but she didn't want to say it out loud, so she said, "This is really a bit troublesome."
"Yeah." Qi Lang stared at her with deep eyes, "Other girls are fine, but she... I don't dare to bet."
"Who told you to be so fickle? What if she doesn't like fickle guys? That's it." Bai He said righteously, "You should wait and see. Don't confess so rashly."
"You're right, she doesn't like stinky scumbags."
"Yeah! So I can't even tell you! I'm sure we won't be friends anymore, it'll be so embarrassing."
"She's also very afraid of embarrassment." Qi Lang's eyes were filled with bitterness. "So, do you think I have no chance of success?"
Bai He saw it, but he still wanted to try.
Do you like it so much? Why are you unwilling to accept it?
She felt her eyes were sore, but she held it back and patted him lightly: "If you really want to try, then go ahead. With your temper, you might not be willing to give it up if you don't try."
Qi Lang observed her flawless expression.
She still treated him as a friend and had no such thoughts at all.
So annoying.
——
Bai He felt much better after taking ibuprofen. She walked back to the dormitory building from the infirmary. Her classmates had already dispersed, but she saw from afar that Qi Lang had been punished again and was doing push-ups with one hand.
The girls surrounded him, cheering him on and counting loudly together: "81! 82! 83..."
Every time the boy lay down, his posture was perfect, his arm muscles bulged and full of strength.
Several girls blocked Bai He's view. She withdrew her gaze. Zhan Xinyue and Su Xiaojing called her, so she trotted over and went to the cafeteria with them.
Night falls. The moonlight is bright tonight, and the sky is dotted with stars. Students in camouflage uniforms are gathered in groups of three or four by the training camp playground.
Life in the military training camp is almost over, and everyone is reluctant to leave.
Bai He, Su Xiaojing and the other two were sitting on the edge of the playground looking at the stars when they received a message from Yan Yi, who shared his location and asked Bai He to come find him.
Bai He followed the map and walked towards the stone path in the mountains. He watched the small orange and blue icons on the map getting closer and closer. There were no street lights in the mountains, and there was no other lighting except the moonlight. It was pitch black.
Bai He watched helplessly as the two people's small icons overlapped, but he didn't see Yan Yi.
"Huh?" She couldn't help but call out, "Ayi."
Suddenly, a huge hug came from behind and absorbed her into his arms.
Bai He was startled, but immediately smelled the familiar scent on the boy and felt relieved.
In the darkness, there were only the shadowy shadows of trees and the fragmented moonlight. He held her tightly in his arms, buried his cheek in her hair, and took a deep breath.
"Hayi, what are you doing?"
"I haven't seen you for more than ten days." The young man's mellow voice came from my ear, "We have never been apart for so long..."
Bai He thought, that’s right, he has never been so far away from home and separated for so long, he must miss home and his parents.
She turned around, pinched the boy's cheek, and said with a smile, "You're almost an adult, and you're still so childish."
"So what if I grow up?" Yan Yi said, "When I grow up, I'm still yours..."
He paused, "Your one."
The moonlight shone faintly on his face, and Bai He found that his facial features seemed sharper, as if he had really quickly transformed from a boy into a man in just a few days. His originally fair and clean skin was now a little yellowish due to the tanning, and a mature aura came over him, and even his breathing felt like a man's.
You really need to grow up.
"Where is your medical school's camp?"
"It's just over the mountain." Yan Yi pointed to the mountain road over there. "I climbed over a mountain and came here secretly."
"Then you have to go back quickly. Military training is about to end. Don't get punished."
"fine."
Yan Yi took out a thermos from his schoolbag and said, "I made you some brown sugar water. I can't get any wolfberries or red dates. Take a sip. Are you okay today?"
"I felt a little uncomfortable, but I'm fine after taking medicine."
"Please ask for leave."
"Yes, please."
He unscrewed the bottle cap for her, and Bai He took a sip of the brown sugar water, which was still warm.
He said, "Drink it, I'll bring you more tomorrow."
"good."
Bai He gulped down the brown sugar water in one breath, not leaving a drop.
The two of them found a rock in the mountains and sat down to chat. Yan Yi was prepared and sprayed floral water on her legs and hands to prevent mosquitoes.
His attentiveness is truly astonishing.
"Have you been punished by the instructors during these days of military training?" Bai He asked him.
"Of course not. I was chosen as the first pacesetter and will lead the graduation parade."
"Qi Lang is the same." Bai He said, "I even suspect that the selection of model soldiers depends on appearance."
"Maybe you have to look at your figure too," he said.
She laughed and reached out to pinch his chest muscles. They were so hard that she couldn't move them. "You're amazing! They're bigger than mine."
"No, not as big as you."
"You really want to compete with me?" She put her arm around his shoulders jokingly. "You don't want to be my brother or sister, do you want to be my sister?"
Yan Yi turned his head and stared at her: "How are you feeling these days?"
"There are good times, and there are... bad times." Bai He looked up at the stars in the sky and naturally put her head on his shoulder. He lowered his shoulder to let her lean more comfortably.
She knew in her heart that when she was in a bad mood, it was mostly related to that person.
"Is he flirting with girls again?"
"Not really, no, it seems like I'm serious this time."
"I've never seen him care about anyone so much before. He even...didn't dare confess his feelings because he was afraid they wouldn't be friends anymore."
She suppressed her sadness and murmured, "The brave adventurer has become so cowardly. It seems that he really likes it."
Yan Yi frowned slightly after hearing this: "Who do you think he is talking about?"
"Xu Li, who else could it be?"
“…”
Yan Yi didn't say much. He took her hand and looked down at the little crescent moon on her fingernail: "Bai He, I want to celebrate my birthday soon."
"Can't you wait?"
"yes."
He couldn't wait to grow up, and before the secret misunderstanding between her and Qi Lang was cleared up, he couldn't wait... to capture her into his territory and make her his own.
"Bai He, I should go back."
"You should have gone back a long time ago." Bai He shook the empty cup and handed it to him. "Thank you, my gentle, considerate and understanding little brother."
"Hold me again?"
"OK."
Without thinking much, she opened her arms and Yan Yi held her in his arms, burying her face deeply in the crook of his neck.
Don't love him anymore, love me.
Yan Yi said sadly in his heart.
He kissed the scar on her neck calmly through the black lace neckband.
In the darkness, there were only the sounds of wind and insects. Bai He sensed a hint of ambiguity in this hot and wet embrace.
But she felt that she was overthinking it.
Until someone saw their vague figures in the mountains not far away.
Although hidden in the darkness, distant and unreal, Qi Lang could recognize his two childhood sweethearts, who were hugging each other tightly and affectionately.
In the moment of her daze, the few fireflies that she had caught in her net bag all night to make her laugh also flew away.
