When they arrived at the Lavender Scenic Area, it was just past ten in the morning. Despite the heat, the area was exceptionally beautiful.
There were few people, and the lavender was blooming splendidly.
Large patches of purple spread out like splashes of paint.
Xia Chuqing rushed to the Lavender Field as soon as she got out of the car, bending over to inspect the lavenders and constantly taking photos with her phone.
This was probably the largest Lavender Garden she had ever seen, and it was incredibly beautiful.
Xiao Mo was not particularly interested in flowers and plants; he preferred watching her as she enjoyed the scenery.
With a small sling bag, the youthful and rosy-cheeked Xia Chuqing was brimming with energy and laughter.
Xiao Mo leaned against the car door with his arms folded, sun pouring down from above, squinting as he watched Xia Chuqing wander around the Lavender Field.
"So beautiful!" Xia Chuqing turned and shouted to Xiao Mo, "Co over here!"
Xiao Mo laughed: "I’ll co over in a bit."
"Okay!"
Xia Chuqing seed to forget the displeasure between her and Xiao Mo. She bounced forward and was soon imrsed in the sea of purple.
Xiao Mo took out a DSLR from the car, adjusted the lens, and snapped a few photos.
Indeed, the photos taken here were a lot more beautiful.
But they were all of Xia Chuqing’s back, Xiao Mo had no choice but to raise his cara and shouted, "There’s a little dog behind you!"
Xia Chuqing got startled and quickly turned around.
In the mont she turned and lowered her head, Xiao Mo captured a few snapshots. It would be a waste if Xia Chuqing didn’t beco a model.
Realizing she was tricked, Xia Chuqing walked a few steps towards Xiao Mo, annoyed: "Where is the dog?"
"Not there? Maybe I saw wrong," Xiao Mo shrugged nonchalantly.
"No, there is one," Xia Chuqing gave him a sly look, "a mangy dog!"
"..." Xiao Mo’s mouth twitched, was this a roundabout way of insulting him?
"What did you take? Show , let see how good your photography skills are," Xia Chuqing wanted his DSLR.
"Haven’t taken any," Xiao Mo lied.
"Then lend the DSLR, I’m quite good at it," Xia Chuqing had not expected soone like Xiao Mo to be into photography.
"No way, what if it gets broken," Xiao Mo obviously refused. If he lent it to her, could he still take proper photos?
"Jeez, why are you so stingy, a big man like you?"
"Still no."
"Forget it, stingy ghost." Xia Chuqing stopped bothering with him and turned around, continuing to take pictures with her phone.
Xia Chuqing once again slowly rged with the Lavender Field, and Xiao Mo slowly walked behind her, accompanying her.
There were a few other tourists here, but not many, the area had not yet fully developed into a well-managed scenic spot.
There was a newlywed couple taking wedding photos, and Xia Chuqing watched them with envy.
"The bride is so beautiful, and the wedding dress is gorgeous," Xia Chuqing murmured.
"Not as beautiful as you, let’s go!" Xiao Mo said lightly.
"..." Xia Chuqing was taken aback. Was he complinting her, offending her, or consoling her?
As they walked, Xiao Mo joined Xia Chuqing’s side, and the two walked shoulder to shoulder.
Not far away, there was a clear stream with a windmill by the river.
Just like any other ordinary girl, Xia Chuqing handed her phone to Xiao Mo: "Can you take a picture of , please?"
Xiao Mo gave her a look, his lips curving slightly with an ambiguous expression.
Xia Chuqing felt awkward: "Just one shot, I won’t be picky."
She knew n hated taking photos for won, and she guessed Xiao Mo was no different.
"Is there any benefit for ?" Xiao Mo asked.
"..." Xia Chuqing was taken aback, "What benefit do you want? Have you negotiated so much that you think about benefits in everything? At worst, I’ll also take a photo for you."
"No need for that hassle, let’s take one together, saves the trouble of doing it twice."
Xiao Mo was a man of action, no sooner had he finished speaking than he handed his SLR cara to a passerby, exchanging a few words with him.
Xia Chuqing hadn’t even reacted before Xiao Mo dragged her in front of the windmill.
"Hey, Xiao Mo, I don’t want to take a photo with you."
"Don’t waste resources."
"How is taking two photos wasting resources? I really can’t follow your logic."
"Low IQ of course you don’t understand. Taking another photo wastes ti and energy, ti is invaluable, and electricity is a resource that consus a lot of energy; it seems insignificant, but a dike thousands of miles long can be destroyed by an ant hole, little by little can add up, if everyone only thinks about wasting resources and not saving them, what would our environnt turn into?"
Xiao Mo nonsense confused Xia Chuqing who was absolutely baffled.
Dammit, he’s such a smooth talker.
Just as Xia Chuqing was about to retort, Xiao Mo whispered, "Smile a bit."
The passerby quickly took a photo and made an "OK" gesture.
"That’s it." Xiao Mo walked over.
"Xiao Mo, you’re shaless!" Xia Chuqing exclaid, "You’re so good at counting costs, you might as well not drive, use public transport! And... hey, wait for !"
Xiao Mo didn’t respond, simply walked ahead with his SLR in hand.
Xiao Mo looked at the photo; it turned out not bad.
Although Xia Chuqing looked reluctant, at least her expression was in place.
Throughout the trip, Xia Chuqing had a lot of fun and soon forgot about the incident.
Most of the ti, it was Xia Chuqing talking, and even though she didn’t want to deal with Xiao Mo, he was the only person around, and it was uncomfortable not talking.
Sotis they would chat casually, Xia Chuqing found out that Xiao Mo didn’t have any childhood trauma, so why was he so sarcastic, so selfish?
When they were tired, they sat in a small teahouse to rest.
Xiao Mo ordered a pot of green tea and handed a cup to Xia Chuqing.
"Xiao Mo, do you often date like this?"
"No steady partner, how to date." Xiao Mo responded indifferently.
"Well, I’m not your partner either."
"Any person will do."
"I... darn." Xia Chuqing cursed softly, "Then Xiao Mo, I want to ask you a very serious question, extrely serious."
"You don’t look that serious."
"Can you seriously listen to my question?" Xia Chuqing sternly looked at him.
"Go ahead." Xiao Mo took a sip of his tea.
Xia Chuqing stared at his face, his eyes without sunglasses were very beautiful, glowing like starlight, deep and bright. This man’s features were strikingly handso. As she looked at him, he was also looking at her.
eting his gaze, her cheeks reddened slightly.
Fortunately, the sun was strong, it was not apparent if her cheeks were sunburnt or blushing.
It seed quietly silent around, a breeze brushed her face, spreading the scent of lavender everywhere.
"Xiao Mo, have you ever liked ? Even for a mont." Xia Chuqing asked earnestly.
She wasn’t joking at all, she was waiting for his answer.
