Chao Yan’s hands looked even paler under the soft light. His knuckles were long and thin, and because he was too thin, his knuckles were distinct.

He slowly traced her eyes and eyebrows, and they overlapped with the image in his mind. There was the image of her when she was young, and the image of her when she grew up.

No matter what it looked like, it was still her.

There was a tiny mole on her brow, and he had touched it personally. His fingers could not feel the tiny mole.

His fingers traced it for a long time, but no matter how he drew it, it was only the feeling of his hands. His eyes could not see it. He liked to see her smile.

But he could not see it anymore.

He slowly withdrew his hand and moved his body closer to her. After a while, he stretched out his arm and held her in his arms, pressing his chin against her forehead, he said in a low voice, “I didn’t want to hurt Fu Tingyu. It was an accident.”

“It was an accident. I didn’t expect that to happen. I planned to go personally, but…I couldn’t. I could only ask Yin Shi to send someone else.”

If he went, there would be no mistakes.

After Chao Yan finished speaking, the corner of his mouth twitched. “Even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe as you’ve decided. But it started with me, so I’ll take the blame.”

After Chao Yan finished speaking, the room became quiet again. It was so quiet that one could hear Qin Shu’s shallow breathing. It was very even and long.

She slept extremely peacefully. It was because her mind was calm and her mind was fragrant.

Chao Yan did not speak anymore. He lay quietly and enjoyed the short period of time by her side.

He felt that the time during the day was too long, but he also felt that the time at night was too short. He felt that in the blink of an eye, the day had brightened up.

The days were getting shorter by the day.

He was not afraid.

Qin Shu stared at the top of the bed for a long time and felt that something was wrong. She turned her head and saw the book she read last night on the bedside table. The book was placed on the table.

She remembered that she seemed to have fallen asleep reading last night, but the book was on the bedside table. It meant that she put down the book first before falling asleep last night.

What was going on?

Qin Shu lifted the quilt and walked into the bathroom to wash up in her slippers.

Not only was the scenery on the mountain nice, but the air was very fresh too.

But none of this could change Qin Shu’s unbeautiful mood.

Although she ate well every day, lived well, enjoyed the scenery, listened to the birds, and smelled the flowers, her mood was getting more and more depressed every day.

That inexplicable mood made her irritated, and she even wanted to beat someone up.

She stood on the shore of the artificial lake and looked at the gazebo in the centre of the lake. The white figure sat there like a bell, motionless.

She was wearing a dress with the Chinese element today. The material of the dress was silk, and it was very comfortable to wear, especially when the scenery was so beautiful. Her beautiful appearance felt as if she had walked out of a painting.

She was passing by here, and not here to see Chao Yan.

She turned her head and walked toward the space in front of her.

There was a space not far from the artificial lake. The lawn planted there was the best, not the kind of low-grade lawn.

The space was slightly big. In May, the lawn was slightly soft. She directly took off her shoes and stepped on them. Although it was not as comfortable as the fox fur slippers, it felt very good.

The sunlight was very soft early in the morning.

She sat down on the grass and then lay down again. Her hands were placed behind her head, and her slender legs were casually crossed.

As she lay there, the smell of grass filled the tip of her nose, making her feel as if she was on the prairie.

She slept well last night, so she felt a little drowsy as she lay there.

The warm sunlight shone on her body, and she fell asleep.

She had a very long dream, and she vaguely remembered that Chao Yan was in the dream.

In the dream, she was only ten years old, and everyone called her Ling Bao. She had two bun-shaped hair, and she was wearing a black and red martial artist’s uniform, revealing her jade-like arms and a pair of short legs. Her skin was very white, it was a little dazzling under the sunlight.

There were a few strands of hair on her forehead, which stuck to her forehead because of sweat.

Last time, Ling Bao had snuck down the mountain out of curiosity because she discovered that there were people in the manor at the foot of the mountain. She discovered that there was a quiet youth who lived in the manor. He was a few years older than her, so he should be called her little brother.

Therefore, there were two times that she had taken advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her to come down from the mountain to see that little brother.

The youth’s eyes were covered with gauze, almost covering his entire face. She could only see his beautiful chin.

His eyes could not see.

She went twice and found the young man sitting in the gazebo, motionless like a small monk meditating.

She walked into the gazebo with small steps and shouted behind him, “Ah! ! !” In an attempt to scare him.

She had scared a lot of people. Everyone on the Qi mountain had been scared by her, and they all had frightened expressions, except for the master.

However, what disappointed her was that the young man didn’t seem to hear her at all, not to mention that he was not scared that he didn’t fall to the ground.

She sat down next to the young man in disappointment and curled her lips in dissatisfaction. “Why don’t you look scared at all?”

The youth, “…”

Ling Bao saw that he still didn’t speak, so she curiously went over and stared at his bandaged eyes and then at his ears. His earlobes were slightly thin.

She seemed to have heard someone say that people with thin earlobes were unlucky.

But she did not believe it.

“How long have you been sitting? Did your legs feel numb? When I first went up the mountain, the master told me to squat. In less than half an hour, my legs were numb.”

The youth,”…”

To verify if his legs were numb, Ling Bao stretched out her small, fleshy hand and pinched his legs. She did not forget to raise her head and ask him, “Did your legs feel numb?”

As soon as she finished speaking, her hand was slapped away by the youth. It was obvious that he was angry.

“Are you angry?” Ling Bao thought that he was still angry about the day he had almost fainted when she had thrown him into the water.

“I fell from the mountain by accident. Moreover, I did not know that you were in the water. I do not have clairvoyance. Besides, didn’t I pull you to the shore? I even apologized to you.”

Ling Bao continued to explain herself, but the youth didn’t seem to appreciate her kindness because he didn’t pay any attention to her.

She sneaked down from the mountain during lunchtime, so she didn’t dare to stay for long. Seeing that the youth ignored her, she could only return to the mountain.

The next day, she stole a very long rope from her master, which was very strong too.

It was not only easy to go down the mountain by tying the rope to the crooked tree, but it also saved a lot of time.

When she came this time, she took the candy. When she walked into the gazebo, without exception, the young man was still sitting there.

She guessed that he was thinking about life.

She sat cross-legged next to the young man, grabbed his hand, and put the candy into his palm. She said, “This is the candy. It’s for you to eat. Master Baili said that when you’re in a bad mood, eat the candy. Your mood will be much better.”

The youth wanted to throw the candy away, but for some reason, he didn’t throw it away, nor did he intend to eat it. He just placed it on the short table next to him.

“Today, another martial arts student came to the mountain. He came late, so he should have called me senior sister, but he didn’t. Then we fought, I was better than him, so I beat him down.”

Ling Bao said proudly, and even laughed twice.

Then she continued, “I know he is holding a grudge because last night at the foot of the mountain, I accidentally knocked him down in the ancient city of Wind and Moon. I even misunderstood that he was a girl and touched his chest. It was flat. I accidentally tore his clothes.”

“I didn’t do it on purpose. He was too beautiful, so I misunderstood.”

In the end, she even emphasized her tone.

“Do you want to go out for a walk? Master said that you should exercise more, or else you’ll grow into Little Fatty.”

After Ling Bao finished speaking, seeing that the youth still did not speak, she wondered if he was mute?

She sat up curiously and looked at his bandaged eyes. With one hand supporting the tatami, the other small hand carefully reached out in front of him and grabbed the edge of the bandage, trying to open it to see his eyes.

Before she could open it, her hand was swatted away by the youth, and she heard his crisp voice, which was like a mountain spring, “Don’t touch me.”

So he wasn’t mute.

Ling Bao didn’t ask at first because she was afraid that he would be unhappy.

“You can talk, so why haven’t you answered me?” She was a bit displeased.

The youth still didn’t answer her.

After returning to the mountain, she looked at Ling Han. Although he didn’t talk much, he was much better than the youth.

She then looked at Ling Yan, who was more talkative too.

She glanced at Ling Yan again and realized that he was looking at her too. That gaze was somewhat arrogant. She turned her head, not wanting to see him.

She didn’t look for Ling Mu, because Ling Mu didn’t like to talk too, but he was also better than the young man. At least, whatever she asked, Ling Mu would answer.

So she went to look for Ling Feng.

She chatted with Ling Feng for quite a while, and just happened to be heard by her master.

Then, she chatted with the master for a while, but she did not tell them about the young man at the foot of the mountain.

They all said that such a person might have autism.

Ling Bao did not know what autism was like because she had never seen it before. It was probably because she did not talk to others and played with herself.

But she did not see the young man playing with her either?

For a few days in a row, Ling Bao did not go down the mountain to see the young man.

Four days later, she rested that day.

She secretly went down the mountain and came to the gazebo. The young man sat in the gazebo motionlessly as usual.

Ling Bao stood behind him with the back of her hand holding a caterpillar in her hand. She called out first, “Little brother, I have something for you.”

After saying that, she put the caterpillar in his hand. The green caterpillar crawled and crawled as soon as it touched the back of the young man’s fair hand…

The young man’s face turned black where Ling Bao could not see. He raised his hand to grab the caterpillar in his hand and crushed it to death. Then, he picked up the wet towel on the short table and elegantly wiped the dirt on his hand.

Ling Bao stood behind him and did not see that the young man = crushed the caterpillar to death. She asked, “It doesn’t bite. It’s just a little itchy when it crawls on your hand.”

After saying that, she walked over to his side and sat down.

The youth stopped wiping and quietly took a wet towel to wrap up the caterpillar’s corpse. Then, he threw it into the trash can at the side.

After Ling Bao sat down, she turned her head to look at the youth’s hands. After searching for a long time, she did not see a green caterpillar. She asked him in puzzlement, “Where’s the caterpillar I gave you?”

The young man did not say anything.

She searched for a while more and realized that the candy on the short table had disappeared. She was a little happy. When she smiled, she revealed two small canine teeth. “You ate the candy?”

The young man still did not say anything.

Ling Bao asked again, “Isn’t it very sweet?”

The young man,”…”

She took it as his acquiescence. Then, she touched her pocket and realized that she had eaten all the candy on her. She could only say, “I don’t have any more candies with me. I’ll bring it to you next time.”

Young man,”…”

The next time she came, it was two days later. The weather that day was not very good, and it looked like it was going to rain.

This time, Ling Bao not only brought candy, but she also brought something for the young man to play with.

She thought that the young man would stay in the house, but she did not expect that he would still be sitting in the gazebo. If she did not know that he was sitting there every day, she would mistakenly think that he was sitting there on purpose to wait for her to come.

She quietly walked behind him and opened the small box in her hand. She placed the things she brought from behind in his hand.

Its body was slender. Its body was very slippery, especially on the young man’s fair hand. It almost slipped off.

“Is this a snake?”

The young man did not sit still this time. He directly threw the thing in his hand away and jumped up. He was most afraid of snakes and most afraid of the feeling of the cold body sticking to his skin.

Ling Bao did not expect him to have such a big reaction when he directly woke up from the short table. She thought that he would still sit calmly and not speak or move.

So when she saw this scene, she could not help but laugh out loud. “Haha, that’s not a snake, it’s a yellow eel. I stole it from the kitchen.”

Today, during lunch, she heard the chef say that a yellow eel had run away.

The young man stood in front of the short table, his face even darker than the last time.

He felt that this little girl was deliberately toying with him to make him happy.

“If you have the ability, don’t run.” Although the young man couldn’t see, he could walk as usual, but his speed was slightly slower.

“I am running away.” Ling Bao slipped away immediately. The young man was chasing after her and he looked very angry.

She could not help but laugh out loud again because this was the first time she saw the youth walk out of the gazebo.

After chasing for a long time, it suddenly started to rain. It was summer rain, and it came very quickly.

Ling Bao was afraid that he would not be able to see, so she panted and said, “I’m not running anymore. It’s raining.”

The youth stopped in his tracks too. With one hand on the railing, he did not blush or pant.

Ling Bao took out some candies from her pocket and held them in her palm. She handed it to the youth. “Don’t be angry. I brought some candy for you.”

The rain became heavier and heavier.

Qin Shu raised her hand to cover her eyes. She slowly opened her eyes. Before she fell asleep, the sun was still shining brightly. Now, dark clouds covered the sky, and it was raining.

She seemed to have a dream just now, and it was raining in her dream.

She dreamed of Chao Yan, the young man.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it had no intention of stopping.

She hurriedly stood up on the grass, picked up the shoes on the ground, and ran into the house.

When she passed by the artificial lake, she saw a white figure in the gazebo from the corner of her eye. A few images flashed through her mind, so fast that she could not catch them in time.

By the time she ran back to the room, her clothes were wet, and it was uncomfortable to touch her skin. She took the dry clothes and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

In the gazebo in the middle of the lake.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. The sound of the rain was ringing in her ears.

Chao Yan listened to the sound of the rain and supported himself with his hands on the short table. Suddenly, he stood up and walked out of the gazebo while supporting himself with the pillar.

What Qin Shu dreamed just now was what Chao Yan was thinking now.

He didn’t have much time left. Why would he waste time on her?
