The girl was smiling, but there was not a hint of jest in her tone. To her, Xu Musen was her only bottom line.
Once childhood sweethearts, husband and wife in a past life, how could they bear to see each other get hurt?
Xu Musen was stunned for a long ti, then he pinched her cheek.
"Fool... don't ever say such silly things again."
His words were tinged with a bitter sweetness. Yes, it was this very incident that had brought a change in their relationship.
But what if it had never happened?
How would they be then?
The girl who once could unabashedly enjoy all of Xu Musen's favoritism and boundless doting.
Now she fought valiantly and cautiously just to receive the tenderness and rembrance that had always been hers...
Xu Musen held her even tighter, "I could never forget you, and I never even thought of forgetting you. Don't you ever think I will forget you in the future, do you hear !"
Yao Mingyue also squeezed into his arms, listening to Xu Musen's words beco more and more impassioned and resolute, she nodded gently, "I know..."
The night grew deeper.
The ice was cold.
"Let's go back."
"Okay."
Yao Mingyue slowly got up from his embrace, her gaze lingering on the separate ice surface.
"Do you rember the question I asked you just now?"
Xu Musen nodded tacitly, "The one about the two of you falling into the water together? I've already said that's a false dilemma..."
"But every question should have an answer, or rather, an order."
Yao Mingyue's eyes glimred, she looked deeply at Xu Musen, smiling, "I'll tell you the answer, you should save Nuannuan first."
Xu Musen's hands trembled, he wanted to speak, but Yao Mingyue placed her cold fingertip against his lips.
"This isn't an answer, nor is it forcing you to choose, it's just that now we both know what we need the most. I don't like Nuannuan, after all, she took away the man I like the most.
"But I also thank her. If it weren't for her, perhaps we would never have realized the issues between us. She took you away, but in a way, she allowed to really have you."
Yao Mingyue's eyes seed to reflect the shimring, unfrozen water in the distance, "I'm actually quite selfish, but sotis I can be quite content, and occasionally, I want to be generous just once. I've monopolized you for a lifeti, so I might as well... let her have a few days' advantage first."
Yao Mingyue gently scraped at the ice surface with the tip of her foot, one hand caressing Xu Musen's cheek, while the other lay softly on her own chest; her eyes raising seed to blend the light of the water and the stars.
"Xu Musen, I love you, rember , and... wait for ."
Xu Musen fell silent for a long ti, watching the expression of the girl, his gaze fixed upon her chest.
He reached out, intending to wipe the corner of her eye.
"Alright now, it's so cold, Little Moriko, ti to go back and warm up the bed for ."
Yao Mingyue's tone suddenly changed, she smiled as she pinched Xu Musen's face, then turned around, took a step back, and elegantly twirled on the ice.
Cold winds lifted over the lake, the girl's black hair blended into the night, making her skin appear even more snow-white. At this mont, she glided slowly on the ice like a Snow Elf of the winter days.
She was always ant to be this beautiful; it was just that winter seed to have beco her prison. She slid along, her figure light and nimble, reflecting off the ice under the night sky, her voice gradually carrying with the wind.
"But let say the ugly part up front.
Perhaps one day in the future.
I, Yao Mingyue.
I will still snatch you back!"
