Checking the ti, it was still early.
Xu Musen and Yao Mingyue were carrying groceries and passing by a mall when Xu Musen pondered a thought.
"What kind of costics does Aunt Liu usually like to use?"
"You... want to buy costics for my mom?"
Yao Mingyue narrowed her eyes, and it seed as though hints of jealousy wafted through her tone.
"It's winter, the skin needs maintenance, and besides, is there a problem with paying respects to my elders?"
Xu Musen said.
But Yao Mingyue stared into his eyes for a while, and finally snorted, "I think it's because soone is worried about their hit-and-run antics being discovered by my mom, so they're trying to shut her up with a gift?"
Yao Mingyue's words carried an insinuation.
"We're innocent, we haven't even been in a relationship, much less done anything to deserve being labeled as hit-and-run."
Xu Musen said, speechless, but then he paused and looked at Yao Mingyue, "Have you told Aunt Liu about us?"
Yao Mingyue looked up and t his gaze, "About what?"
Seeing her feigning ignorance, Xu Musen didn't beat around the bush, "About dating, is Aunt Liu aware?"
Yao Mingyue's eyes flickered slightly.
Looking at Xu Musen, her heart felt a touch of sourness, but gazing upon the face she adored to her very bones,
she still smiled slightly, revealing her white, pearly teeth.
"In my eyes, you've only been taken care of by another girl for a few days, sooner or later you will still be mine."
The setting sun filtered into her eyes, making her seem to shine, its fiery intensity almost too much to look at directly.
Getting this small tsundere to give up is an extrely challenging task.
Like the Xu Musen of the past, countless people called him a loyal dog, mocking and sneering at him in secret, yet he never once shied away.
Before Xu Musen had a chance to speak, Yao Mingyue reached out with two fingers and lightly pinched his lips.
Her cool and soft fingers, carrying the faint scent of elegant flowers, leaned in closer, she made a slight shush gesture by her mouth, and then winked at him.
"You don't need to answer , otherwise, if I get upset, I might just do sothing drastic, and then you'll be the one to bla~"
Yao Mingyue said with a hint of playfulness, her stunningly beautiful face radiating a girlish sweetness when she smiled.
The sunset on her made the mont particularly beautiful.
Yet, her words also carried a stubbornness that could linger in one's mind for a long ti, those golden-brown eyes possessed a bewitching charm that could make one's heart waver and sink into them.
A dangerous threat.
Just like in their previous life, after she made Xu Musen drink that glass of red wine, she had told him,
"You're never leaving in this lifeti."
This had always been a psychological shadow in Xu Musen's heart.
But in this mont, as he looked at Yao Mingyue who was similarly "threatening" him, his heart was devoid of fear or resistance.
Because he also saw in her eyes, behind that threatening, vehent, and resolute gaze, a hint of forced grievance.
Just like the old him.
Xu Musen reached out and gently brushed aside her fingers.
He had said those words to her too many tis before.
In many ways, the two of them were very much alike.
After all, they were childhood sweethearts, the understanding between them was even more profound than that of so-called "marital affinity."
"Let's go."
Xu Musen shook his head, his lips curling slightly, still catching a whiff of her fragrance.
The two arrived at the mall.
Though Yao Mingyue could sotis be a bit jealous of her own mother, when it ca to picking out things for her, she was decidedly uncompromising.
Since she and her mother often shared makeup and skincare products, Yao Mingyue made the selection with ease.
After choosing a set, Yao Mingyue looked over it and said, "That's about it."
She spoke, with a sowhat acidic tone, "Sure enough, soone's really filial, never bought makeup for though."
Xu Musen turned to look at her; Yao Mingyue's jealous little antics were unexpectedly adorable.
"You are naturally beautiful and don't need it."
Xu Musen took the rare chance to complint her.
After all, Yao Mingyue was top-tier in everything, except for her tsundere personality!
Xu Musen couldn't lie and say she wasn't pretty, otherwise, wouldn't that an he had no eye for beauty in his past life?
The 18-year-old Yao Mingyue was as beautiful as a budding flower, tender, delicate, exuding an invigorating grace.
Any makeup on her face would rely gild the lily, her bare-faced beauty was enough to captivate the gaze.
It had been a while since Yao Mingyue had heard him complint her like this.
After all, she was still an 18-year-old girl, and her heart swelled with sweet sensations when praised by the one she liked.
"Hmph, consider yourself lucky that you can still spout so sweet nothings," Yao Mingyue scoffed, yet her fair face was tinged with a smug blush.
The once insatiable girl was now, surprisingly, blushing and having her heart flutter over a simple complint.
Yao Mingyue turned away, covering her chest with her hand; she felt a bit embarrassed.
In the past, even if Xu Musen praised her beauty every day, she took it for granted.
But now, his casual remark "naturally beautiful" made her heart beat uncontrollably faster.
