Chapter 97: Would You Rather

I just smiled and teased Joy, as if what happened to them had nothing to do with me.

He was also shocked by my calmness, and felt his gaze staring straight at me, not saying anything more.

I don't know what's wrong, but after that kid left, I changed and became indifferent.

In the past few months, I have not contacted them, only Huo Nanyi sent them postcards once a month in my name.

But I no longer feel ashamed of them as I used to, and I feel cold-blooded and ruthless. On the contrary, I felt inexplicably relaxed, and I didn't have to carry the guilty days, which was really comfortable.

Silently, he walked to the end of the bluestone path, a small bay with mud and sand glowing brick-red.

He once again accompanied me to fulfill a wish. Before I met him, I didn't dare to have a wish. After getting to know him, all the unspoken desires were fulfilled by him.

We sat on the wooden bridge, and in a moment of play, we kicked off our shoes and soaked our feet in the cool water.

"Huo Nanyi, are you free tomorrow night? I heard from the people in the town that the scenery of 'Little Zhu Feng' in the north corner is very good, especially the night view, surrounded by fireflies all year round, and at night, it is like a night pearl shining. If you have time, let's check it out! ”

As soon as the back of his hand was hot, his hand came up and squeezed it gently, "You don't blame me anymore?" ”

"Did you blame me?"

Looking at his hesitant eyes, following his example, pinching the tip of his nose, "Silly! I'm just like you. Avoiding you, it's just hard to accept for a while. How could I really blame you? ”

Now that I think about it, it did. It's just that I can't accept the fact that the child is completely gone, and I don't want to accept that I haven't been able to protect him, so I will blame him for the mistake and seek peace of mind.

But his indefatigability broke my plan, and I intensified it, constantly dodging and fleeing.

Instead of clenching his hand, he looked away and looked at the sea seriously. This moment was the calmest moment in my life for more than 20 years.

I finally smelled the smell of the spring breeze, the coolness of the faint sea breeze seeping into my body.

Sitting by the sea until late at night, leaning on his shoulder, I kept laughing, laughing from the bottom of my heart.

After walking for so long and escaping so many times, I finally found peace. And in the tranquility, with him by my side, this is my happy appearance.

Basking in the sea breeze, I fell asleep in his arms.

It wasn't until I felt the warmth of his back and opened my eyes in a daze that I realized that we were already walking on the stone road that had turned back. Touching his ear, seeing that he was not angry, he boldly played with it again.

It feels soft and firm to the touch, funny, and smiles brightly like a child who gets candy.

"Mu Zi!" He kept his voice in his voice reminding me not to go too far, but I was so focused on playing that I didn't care.

When he warned me for the third time, I finally understood the rules and stopped doing it. Leaned over his lips, gently took his ear, and exhaled: "Uncle Huo, you are more sultry than before." ”

I saw his reddish ears, just like a little girl who was just starting to fall in love, very cute.

After knowing him for so long, I realized that he would also blush, and it would be straight to the base of his ears.

I found his weakness and retaliated at will, and along the way, I tried to play with his ears, and even felt its temperature rise sharply, like a balloon filled with hot air.

But I forgot one thing, he has always been "calculating" to me.

When I got home, I couldn't get rid of him. Forced to be in my house, I took over his dog, and naturally adopted him as the owner by default. Then I went straight into the room, and naturally undressed and took a shower as if I was at home.

Even though I had already seen through his routine, I still pretended to be stupid, pretending that I couldn't do anything about him, so I had no choice but to let him stay.

Lying with me in his arms, I could feel the longing in his eyes and the heat in his body. But he never moved me, holding back his restless lust and simply putting his arms around me to sleep.

Returning to his arms again, it was like bathing in the spring breeze, lying on the fragrant green grass, intoxicated and not knowing the way back.

I silently swore in my heart that this time, I would not hurt him again, and I would not let go again.

The next day, before I got up, I saw him packing my things lightly, and I thought he was going to take matters into his own hands again.

It didn't, he just helped me pack my things and go play together.

But when I saw that he had brought two whole large boxes of things, I thought it was incredible.

People say that the biggest difference between men going out and women going out is the suitcase, women are eager to move their homes, but men only bring what they can use, and never add burden.

Can...... How is he an outlier among men?

"You're moving? We'll go out for a day and a night, you need to exaggerate it? ”

"It's not an exaggeration, it's just that I love you."

“……”

originally wanted to reduce the burden on him, but when he saw his happy smile, he kept silent and let him toss.

Because he brought too many things, he was delayed for a lot of time, and when we came to the foot of the little Zhufeng Mountain, it was already two o'clock in the hottest afternoon.

It's so hot that we just want to soak in the cold water, but we have to climb the mountain under the sun. I was even more unhappy in my heart, and I wanted to scold him, but when I saw him carrying a bunch of things on his back, he still strode in front of me and opened the way for me, and his anger was blown away.

He loves so stupidly, but he has no regrets, what else can I do? Who made me love him too?

After walking and stopping, I arrived at the top of the mountain before dark and set up my tent.

We found the place where fireflies often haunted, but we didn't want to, disturbing other couples on a date.

At the time, we were going to leave after saying our apologies, but they were very welcoming and left us, saying that we were going on a big date together.

disturbed the sweetness of others, and felt very guilty, so it was difficult to refuse, so I sat down and enjoyed the silence with them.

With us, there were eight couples in total, and we sat around the lake and listened to their love stories. After introducing myself, I realized that they all came from other cities, because this magical place has a legend of love.

At one time, a hunter couple lived on this mountain and lived a peaceful and happy life. Men love women, and women take care of men. The sun rises and the sun sets.

But once, on a cold winter's day, the prey on the mountain was almost extinct, and it was difficult to catch the prey, and the woman was sick and recuperated, and it was the time when she urgently needed to replenish her nutrition. But he couldn't hit the prey, and the man looked at his increasingly thin wife, feeling distressed and guilty.

On the day when the woman was so weak that she could not hold on, the man took a bow and arrow, and went out hunting like a desperate man, just to catch a prey, at least to give his wife a good meal before she died.

Unfortunately, he broke his leg because he was in a hurry.

That night, the wind and snow were blowing, and the wife stood at the door with her weak body in tow, holding the lamp, anxiously waiting for her husband to return.

When she saw her husband crawling back with a wasted leg, she ran towards him with teary eyes.

But just as they touched each other's hands and could hug each other, a bright light flew in, forcibly separated them, and gradually pushed them away in the opposite direction.

The cries of the husband and wife spread throughout the mountain, shaking the ice and snow to break, and even the mountain suddenly steamed, melting the ice and snow.

Gradually, the snow rolled down and tumbled, but it rolled the woman farther and farther.

The man saw that his wife was turned pale, angry, and roared to the sky, and suddenly, everything returned to tranquility, and his wife, still fine, stood at the door of the house, looking at him gently.

The man hurriedly rushed towards his wife and hugged her tightly into his arms, but he didn't want to, and his wife slowly froze. The man was frightened for a while, and he let go in fear, hiding far away, witnessing his wife being completely frozen, and then turning into a pool of red snow.

That's it for the story, there is no background and no ending. But the people here think of it as a love story.

And in this place where we are, there is a lake in the shape of tears, and in the middle of the lake stands a red stone, which glows red in the clear moonlight on the night of the fourteenth of every month. This is the home of the legendary man and woman, and for thousands of years, people have regarded it as a lake of love. Couples often come here to pray for a long love.

Some people say that this spring lake was formed by the tears of a woman. It is also said that this is the tears of remorse of men. He also said that in fact, the woman was the mountain god of the mountain, and her duty was to protect all living beings, but she fell in love with the hunter of slaughter. For the sake of love, he indulged men, but also angered the gods and was punished......

Anyway, there are endless versions, and the ending of the story is also quite controversial.

But one thing is recognized, a man does not love his wife much.

When I first heard this story, I thought the same thing, but ...... They may just not choose the right way to love.

Subconsciously looked at Huo Nanyi beside him, supported the ground with both hands, got a little closer to him, and leaned his head on his shoulder.

"Do you think the man doesn't love his wife?"

He turned his head, looked at me seriously, and said, "That's just a legend, I don't know." But I'm sure I love you, and it hasn't changed since I first met you. ”

Raising his eyes and looking into his eyes, "Actually, I want to say that I love you too, more than before." ”

Looking at him with a smile, he felt that the vacancy in his heart was finally filled, soaked in sweetness.

When it was our turn to tell our story, I couldn't open my mouth and connect the dots between us, only to realize that I was really stupid and cowardly.

Along the way, I only paid attention to how helpless and painful I was, but I forgot that he was not comfortable.

Listening to him tell our story to others, he didn't complain about me, except praise me, not a word of belittlement.

The others were also moved to tears, knowing that we were not married or engaged, so they had to officiate a simple wedding for us, saying that this is fate, if we get married here, we can stay together in the future, and there will be no more pain.

We looked at each other, but we didn't speak, but I could read the anticipation in his eyes.

"Would you, would you like to?"
