Daytime comes early in the village. Just after six o'clock, there are noisy sounds of farm work outside.

Zhou Zhi snored all night, and she was used to her bed. So far, she has only slept for more than three hours. Shi Mu turned over and pulled the thin blanket over her body. In a daze, she heard the boys talking in low voices.

"Do you want to sleep for a while or eat something?"

"Where's Shi Mu?"

"Inside."

"Yeah."

The footsteps approached, and Shi Mu half-squinted.

Suddenly, the blanket on her head was pulled away, and the other party's cold hands pinched her slender neck tightly. The sudden attack made Shi Mu open her eyes.

The boy's face was close at hand, his eyes were unfathomable, and his beautiful lips were pursed into a straight line. Shi Mu saw the sparks bursting out from his eyes.

He was very angry. Shi

Mu was panicking.

"Are you comfortable here?" Fu Yunshen couldn't bear to pinch her. After seeing the fear in her expression, the strength in his hands loosened immediately.

While he was talking, Zhou Zhi next to him handed over a pair of stinky feet. Fu Yunshen kicked them away in annoyance and directly threw the schoolbag on his shoulder at him.

Shi Mu hurriedly stood up and stepped back a few centimeters, curling up his body and being very alert.

He took off his shoes and got on the bed, lying next to Shi Mu and slightly closed his eyes.

Shi Mu swallowed his saliva. The bed was very small, and the two of them were not short. It immediately became crowded when he came over. After feeling the coldness and fatigue of the boy, Shi Mu tremblingly covered him with the blanket, quickly jumped off the bed and fled the room.

It was so scary. She thought she could sleep peacefully by hiding from Xia Hangyi. As expected, she was still too young and too naive.

Shi Mu went out and stretched out her head facing the red sun in the east. She was sleepy at first, but she was suddenly awakened by Fu Yunshen's fright. She sighed in her heart and washed her face in the pool in the yard.

"You don't want to sleep?" Xia Hangyi, who had just finished chopping wood, moved a small stool next to the stove, ready to make a fire and boil water.

"I'm not going to sleep anymore." Shi Mu shook her head, "What can I do for you?"

Xia Hang refused without thinking: "Just take a good rest, you don't have to do anything."

"Oh." Shi Mu looked around. This courtyard house was old. The tiles on the roof had been damaged by wind and rain, but someone could be seen repairing them from time to time. She retracted her gaze and whispered, "Why didn't you tell me that Fu Yunshen was coming?" The

fire started. Xia Hang covered the pot with an innocent expression: "He didn't let me say it."

"...Fuck." Fu Yunshen is such a dog!

Xia Hang glanced over: "Did you have a fight?"

Shi Mu was annoyed and ruffled her hair, "No fight, it's just..."

You can't say that Fu Yunshen confessed to her, right?

Shi Mu bit his lip and swallowed back all the words in his heart: "Nothing."

The two were talking when Xia Hangyi's great-grandmother came out with a cane. The old lady's legs were trembling and she seemed to be about to fall. Shi Mu hurriedly went up to help her down.

The great-grandmother squinted her eyes, looked at Shi Mu carefully, and said: "Where did you come from, the little girl is so pretty."

Xia Hangyi washed his hands and came over, helped the old lady sit down on the rattan chair, and whispered in her ear: "This is the Shi Mu I told you about. She is not a girl, but a boy. Your grandson did not lie to you. Shi Mu is very beautiful."

Shi Mu glanced at the old lady and withdrew his hand without changing his expression.

Grandma Xia is 85 years old. She has some hearing problems, but her eyes are clear. She kept shaking her head: "Girl, girl, it's a girl. The old woman's eyes are not blind yet."

Shi Mu's heart tightened and he said: "Grandma, I'm a boy."

"Oh, so pretty." As if she didn't hear what Shi Mu said, the old lady's old hand touched her face.

Shi Mu could see that the old lady liked her, and she didn't avoid it. After touching her

enough, the old lady took her hand back and said to Xia Hangyi with a smile: "She is prettier than Xiu'er when she was young."

Xiu'er was the nickname of Xia Hangyi's mother. Among so many granddaughters-in-law, the old lady liked Xia Hangyi's mother because his mother was the most beautiful and the most beautiful girl in the whole area. The old lady always felt that marrying her grandson to her was a disgrace.

"Have you found a partner?"

Xia Hang handed a handful of brewed hot tea to the great-grandmother, looking helpless: "Great-grandmother, Shi Mu is still a student, and you will bother him by asking this. Don't you have an appointment with Grandma Li for morning tea today? Can I take you there now?"

The old lady looked at Shi Mu, "There is a dress in my closet. I originally made it for Xiu'er, but it's a bit tight. I'll give it to you later."

Xia Hang helped the old lady out, "You are really old and confused. Shi Mu is a boy and can't wear girls' clothes. I'll take you to Grandma Li now and pick you up later."

After seeing the old lady off, Xia Hang looked at Shi Mu embarrassedly, "Grandma is a little confused, don't mind it."

Shi Mu seemed to have cryptorchidism, or as they say, a hidden disease. She was already self-deprecating enough, and now that her grandmother said this, she must feel bad.

Thinking of this, Xia Hangyi glanced between her legs.

Shi Mu slid down along the line of sight, calmed down, and said, "It's okay, I don't mind." As soon

as the voice fell, Shi Mu saw Xia Hangyi's eyes fell on the back, she felt a chill on her back, turned her head and met Fu Yunshen's sinister eyes.

His body froze, and Shi Mu dared not to breathe.

"Come here, I want to talk to you." He spoke with a calm expression.

Shi Mu shook her head repeatedly and hurriedly jumped away from Fu Yunshen, "I, I don't think we have anything to say."

Fu Yunshen did not give her a chance to refuse, and forced Shi Mu to walk out.

The boy's hand was very strong, and no matter how hard Shi Mu struggled, he couldn't get it loose. The old people passing by in the village looked over curiously, and the old ladies sitting at the door ate melon seeds and cast ambiguous glances at them.

Shi Mu blushed, "Fu Yunshen, let go, so many people are watching us."

Fu Yunshen refused and pulled her to continue walking into the woods, "Then let's go to a place where no one is."

She was tired of struggling, and panted to follow the boy's pace, "You, you let go first, I can't walk anymore."

Fu Yunshen looked at her suspiciously, and slowly let go. Taking this opportunity, Shi Mu ran back. Fu Yunshen had already guessed her routine, and directly blocked in front of Shi Mu, sneering: "Where are you running to?"

Shi Mu was startled and turned around to continue running.

Fu Yunshen's face darkened and he shouted, "Stop, I have something to say to you."

Shi Mu didn't dare to look back, and he shouted while running, "I don't want to listen,

you bastard!" "... Come back."

Shi Mu covered his ears, "I don't want to look! A rooster is laying eggs!!"

"..."

"If you don't stop, you will hit the tree."

Bang.

After he finished saying this, Shi Mu's head hit the tree trunk hard. The violent impact made Shi Mu stagger back a few steps. After a dizzy spell, he fell softly on Fu Yunshen.

The young man held her shoulders with his big hands, his eyes full of sarcasm: "Generally speaking, water accounts for two-thirds of the total weight of the human body." Shi

Mu's breathing

was rapid, and her eyes were dark. She leaned on Fu Yunshen's chest, her lips trembling: "So, so?"

Fu Yunshen said coldly: "Two-thirds of your body is in your brain."

"...Your fucking brain is filled with water." After slowly coming

to her senses, Shi Mu pushed Fu Yunshen away, covering her bruised forehead and grinning.

She squatted slowly against the tree trunk, and raised her head after the dizziness disappeared. The shadow of the tree fell on him, making his eyebrows and eyes look even more beautiful.

Shi Mu licked his dry lips, "Let me be frank, I treat you as a brother, you can't treat me as a wife, put away your dirty thoughts and tell me that what you said before was a joke, then I will go back with you and won't hide from you."

He lowered his eyes, his gaze burning: "What if I don't?"

If not...

there is nothing she can do!!!

Fu Yunshen pursed his lips and squatted in front of her, speaking clearly word by word: "Shi Mu, it took me a long time to think carefully before deciding to tell you my feelings. I don't want you to take those words as a joke. I like you and want to spend my whole life with you."

Shi Mu grabbed a handful of hair, feeling both amused and helpless: "Brother, you are only 17 years old this year. You tell me a lifetime just because you know how long it is. I know it wasn't easy for you before. No one wanted to approach you and no one wanted to play with you. It's just because I was the first person to make friends with you, so you misunderstood your feelings for me, but it doesn't matter. I believe you will be able to tell the difference soon. After all, you are so smart..."

Shi Mu's voice gradually lowered, and she saw that the boy's eyes were red and his expression was vaguely not good.

She leaned against the tree trunk, thinking that the words she had just said were a bit hurtful. She opened her mouth and said in a weak tone, "Fu Yunshen, I didn't mean anything else..."

"I don't know how long a lifetime is." He looked at her with a firm gaze, "But I believe that a lifetime is a lifetime."

Fu Yunshen said, "Shi Mu, I have never lied to anyone since I was a child. I won't lie to you. Do you believe me?"

Looking at the helpless eyes like a little tiger, Shi Mu couldn't bear to say anything to refuse.

She began to realize her cruelty. From the beginning, she only regarded Fu Yunshen as a mission target, and everything she did was premeditated. But what about Fu Yunshen? Fu Yunshen, who lived in the dark, regarded her as a beam of light, and was unwilling to let go after grabbing her.

She couldn't continue to lie to him. No matter what the result was, even if she couldn't go home, she couldn't deceive this kind-hearted boy.

Shi Mu clenched his fists and whispered, "Fu Yunshen, actually I..."
