Chatted with the four older men for a bit,
Cheng Xiao Xiao turned and walked into the bamboo forest. Liu Danhang wasn’t
going to let this opportunity goes to waste and followed her in.
After dozens of steps into the bamboo
forest, one could still see the villagers retrieving water from the well
through the bamboos, but Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t care. She stopped and looked at
the person who followed her in, “Okay, you can speak your mind now.”
“Xiao Xiao, you knew I had something to
say to you?” asked Liu Danhang, surprised.
“Ugh….” Cheng Xiao Xiao was speechless.
That was only too obvious, but she nodded at him.
A simple smile, Liu Danhang scratched the
back of his head, “Xiao Xiao is so smart!”
“What do you want to say to me?” Cheng
Xiao Xiao looked at him, it was hard to dislike him also. She wasn’t sure what she
could do.
Liu Danhang blushed after she asked him a
second time. Shyly he casted a quick glance at her before he summoned all his
courage and said, “Xiao Xiao, I really like you!”
“I know,” replied Cheng Xiao Xiao
nonchalantly, nodding.
Seeing her emotionless expression, even
the simple Liu Danhang finally understood. He looked disappointed. His lips
moved, but he didn’t say anything.
“I have no older siblings, just young
ones. If you don’t mind, I will treat you like an older brother, what do you
say?” Afterall, Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t want to hurt him, that was all she could
do.
“Brother!” Liu Danhang paused and looked
at the cool Cheng Xiao Xiao. He nodded, “Xiao Xiao, I will always treat you
like a younger sister, and not let anyone hurt you!”
After saying that, Liu Danhang turned and
leave. His back straight, his strides large. He walked out of the bamboo forest
in no time.
Looking at him leaving, Cheng Xiao Xiao
couldn’t help but to say, “He looks foolish, but he’s smart. I hope he can find
someone more suitable for him in the future!”
“Young mistress, he’s not that bad!” said
little Yuteng with a smile, appearing out of nowhere.
Cheng Xiao Xiao shook her head, “I have no
feelings for him. He’s just a friend. If I want to look for a boyfriend, at the
very least I should feel my heart beat raised and my face flustered when I see
him, wouldn’t you say?”
“Heart beat raised and face flustered?”
asked the confused little Yuteng, blinking her watery eyes, “Young mistress,
what kind of feeling is that? Wouldn’t that be some kind of illness?”
“Ugh…” Cheng Xiao Xiao smacked her own
forehead. Why would she expect a fairy to understand that? “Yes, it’s an illness,
and a serious one!”
“But why?” The curious fairy continued to
press.
“No reason, you will understand that some
day!”
“Really, young mistress, I want to find
out more about it now!”
“Ugh, I can’t help you there!”
“Why not?”
“You keep asking me, but I don’t have
answers!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao randomly chitchatted with
little Yuteng while on her way home. When she arrived at home, there was nobody
in the courtyard. She could hear a lot of ruckus coming from the direction of
the ranch. Cheng Xiao Xiao had Yuteng returned to the dimension while she
headed toward the sound.
“Miss Cheng, you are here!” greeted
Innkeeper Zhu with a big smile, cupping his hands.
She casted a look at him and thought about
it for a second, “After this sale, we will reach out to you when we want to
make another transactions. No need to keep coming back!”
“Well, that….” He couldn’t make that
decision so he looked at Deacon Bai.
Deacon Bai walked over after hearing the
conversation, smiling he said, “Miss Cheng, we will wait for your notice;
however, we may reach out with some questions before then, I hope that will be
alright!”
