Chapter 110 Xiao Mo, please don’t be angry
In the woods, Bai Rushue kept running forward.
But in the end, Xiao Mo still grabbed Bai Ruxue's white and tender wrist.
"Let me go." Bai Ruxue struggled a little, but Xiao Mo never let go.
Xiao Mo looked at Ruxue's shaking eyes, which said "I don't want to care about you anymore", and couldn't help but smile in his heart.
If Ruxue really didn't want to pay attention to me, if Ruxue really didn't want to be held by me, with her strength at the immortal level, how could I possibly catch up with her.
"I think you might have misunderstood something, Ruxue." Xiao Mo said.
"I didn't misunderstand. You came out of a woman's boudoir in the middle of the night." Bai Ruxue lowered her head and muttered softly.
"This..." Xiao Mo was speechless for a moment. This was indeed difficult to explain.
Bai Ruxue looked at Xiao Mo, who didn't know what to say, and her face became even angrier.
Xiao Mo raised his head and looked at the sky: "Ruxue, how about we take a walk? I'll explain it to you slowly. After I'm done, it won't be too late for you to get angry."
"." Bai Ruxue neither refused nor agreed, but lowered her head even lower, as if burying it in her chest.
"Let's go."
Bai Ruxue was pulled by Xiao Mo and walked towards the top of the mountain step by step.
Xiao Mo organized his words and slowly explained:
"Two months ago, I went to Senior Sister Shang's courtyard every night."
As soon as Xiao Mo finished speaking, Bai Rushue raised her small foot wearing embroidered shoes and gently kicked Xiao Mo's heel.
"hiss"
Xiao Mo felt a little pain, smiled and continued.
“I wanted to learn something, but my senior sister was busy during the day, so I could only go at night.
In order to prevent you from discovering me, my senior sister gave me a gem. As long as I activate this gem, I can sneak out as long as I don’t get within ten feet of you.
Everything was going smoothly, but I didn't expect you to find out."
"Hmph!" Bai Ruxue turned her head away.
"But Senior Sister and I really didn't do anything." Xiao Mo glanced at the woman beside him, "For the past few days, I have been learning painting in Senior Sister's yard every day."
"Learn painting?" Bai Ruxue blinked. "What kind of painting?"
"What else could it be? Of course it's an ordinary ink painting." Xiao Mo smiled and said, "Senior Sister's attainments in ink painting are extremely deep. I heard that there are not many people in the world who can surpass Senior Sister."
"But why do you want to learn painting? And even if you, Xiao Mo, want to learn painting, why do you hide it from me?" Bai Ruxue pouted.
"Because of this matter, I can't let you know for the time being."
"Why!" Bai Ruxue puffed out her cheeks. There was no dignity of the Lord of the North Sea anymore. All she had was anger and coquettishness towards her lover.
"Well?" Xiao Mo looked at the sky and changed the subject, "It's almost dawn."
"It's already three quarters past midnight." Bai Ruxue said unhappily.
"Then we have to hurry up." Xiao Mo grabbed Bai Rushue's wrist and quickened his pace.
"Huh?"
Bai Ruxue blinked, not knowing what Xiao Mo was going to do.
The higher Xiao Mo and Bai Ruxue climbed to the top of the mountain, the whiter the sky became.
A hint of pale gold gradually emerged on the horizon, and then gradually burned, as if a goddess had spilled red ink, staining the entire sky.
In the woods, the red morning glow was just beginning to descend, and the sunlight tiptoed tentatively through the gaps between the branches and leaves, carefully sliding down the tree trunks.
The bark was stained with a layer of porcelain white, and the texture was clearly visible, as if it had been carefully carved. The cool light meandered downwards along the uneven lines, and countless pale red rays of light slanted through the gaps in the forest and penetrated the thin, floating morning mist.
When Xiao Mo pulled Bai Rushue to the top of the mountain, the rising red sun had half revealed its outline in the east.
“Boom boom. Boom.”
After half of the Mao hour, the sound of bells echoed throughout the academy.
And at the moment the bell rang, Xiao Mo took out a scroll from his sleeve and threw it gently forward.
The scroll hovered in the air and unfolded on its own, revealing a blank painting.
"Xiao Mo, what are you going to do?" Bai Ruxue was puzzled.
"You'll know if you touch it." Xiao Mo said with a smile.
Although Bai Ruxue was confused, she still walked forward and stretched out her slender fingers towards the scroll.
The moment Bai Ruxue's fingers touched the scroll, layers of ripples spread out on the scroll, and golden sunlight was slowly outlined on the scroll like a thin line.
Finally, when Bai Ruxue withdrew her hand, her eyes trembled.
In the scroll, a woman in a white dress stands on the top of a mountain, gazing into the distance.
Every stroke of the woman's figure and expression are so lifelike.
Although this is a black and white ink painting, Bai Rushue feels that the woman in the painting seems to be alive.
The woman in the painting is not someone else, but herself.
"Xiao Mo, this painting is..." Bai Rushue's eyes shook.
"Ruxue, have you forgotten? Today is your birthday. This painting is my birthday gift to you."
Looking at Ruxue's infatuated look, Xiao Mo explained with a smile.
"Two months ago, I was thinking about what kind of birthday gift to give you, Ruxue.
But Ruxue, you lack nothing. You have all the treasures from heaven and earth.
Later, I thought of giving you a painting, and my senior sister is proficient in ink painting, so I went to find her.
This painting took me two and a half months. The paper and ink were both made of the finest Liuqing paper and Yuesi ink, which can be preserved for thousands of years.
And Ruxue, you said that you were born after midnight on the morning of the Rabbit Hour.
So originally I was thinking that I would go back tonight and secretly give you this painting as a surprise at around 12:00 AM.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened and made you angry."
Bai Ruxue looked at the painting, listened to Xiao Mo's words, and then thought of how she had misunderstood Xiao Mo just now, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.
"Xiao Mo, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have distrusted you. I shouldn't have misunderstood you and Senior Sister Shang."
Bai Ruxue lowered her head, walked in front of Xiao Mo, stretched out her hand, gently pulled the corner of Xiao Mo's clothes, and whispered.
"Xiao Mo, please don't be angry, it's all my fault, can you scold me? As long as you are not angry, you can do anything to me."
"Silly boy, I'm not angry." Xiao Mo smiled and stroked the woman's silver hair. "But two months is still too fast. I think this painting still has some flaws. I'll go back and revise it and give it to you later."
"No!" Bai Ruxue took the ink painting down from the air and held it tightly in her arms, as if she was afraid that Xiao Mo would take it away. "This painting is already very beautiful, I like it very much!"
"Really?" Xiao Mo felt Ruxue was comforting him.
"real!"
Bai Ruxue nodded vigorously.
She held the scroll and looked at it again and again, as if she could never get tired of it, just like a little girl who had obtained the most precious treasure in the world.
Xiao Mo, who was standing not far away, looked at her quietly under the red glow.
She stood on the top of the mountain and gazed at the scroll, her figure blending into the morning light, her white dress contrasting with the mountains and rivers, just like the Queen Mother of the West who had fallen into the mortal world.
Xiao Mo couldn't tell whether what he saw was real or a painting.
"Xiao Mo!" Bai Ruxue turned her head, her curved eyes seeming to intoxicate the world, "This painting is really beautiful."
Xiao Mo looked at the picturesque woman:
“It’s very beautiful.”
