Want to kiss?                                   Qiao Ruoxin leaned into the man’s embrace, and once the Lu sisters had left, her tears abruptly stopped as easily as turning off a tap, her emotions at hermand—a testament to an actor’s self-discipline.


    “They’re gone, no need to pretend anymore.” The man released the Little Ghost in his embrace.


    Qiao Ruoxin speared a small piece of roastedmb with her fork and put it into her mouth, nodding, “Mmm, it’s delicious, do you want some?”


    She speared another piece of meat and offered it to the man’s thin lips, which he epted in one bite.


    Mo Chen raised his hand and wiped away the tear stains on her cheek, his voice deep, “Did you really hit her?”


    “Mmm… Do you think I’m cruel?”


    She had nced at Lu Xingxing’s face just now, which was swollen like a pig’s head, probably needing a whole night of icing to reduce the swelling.


    “Why did you hit her?” The man’s tone was devoid of emotion, cool and indifferent.


    Qiao Ruoxin said, “Because I discovered this afternoon, Lu Xingxing deliberately threw something at the white horse to spook it, causing me to nearly get thrown off, so…”


    She hadn’t finished speaking when the man suddenly turned away.


    Qiao Ruoxin grabbed him, “Where are you going?”


    “I will kill her tonight!”


    Mo Chen shook off her hand, anger radiating from him as he turned to leave.


    She quickly set the delicacy aside and clung to the back of the man’s tall figure, “Mo Chen, Brother! It’s not necessary, I’ve already avenged myself!”


    The man sneered coldly, “Just a few ps?”


    She let go of her arms and moved in front of him, “With such beautiful scenery, such a lively atmosphere, why waste it on her? Keep mepany, will you?”


    Mo Chen looked down at her moist eyes, the long, curledshes still beaded with drops of water.


    He touched her cheek, his voice firm, “You’re not allowed to ride horses anymore.”


    “Mmm, okay.”


    The man nced at the roastedmb, then said, “Still hungry? I’ll get you another portion.”


    Qiao Ruoxin smiled and shook her head, “No more, let’s go watch the stars!”


    Disdain crossed the handsome man’s face, “Watching the stars again?”


    What’s so interesting about these stars?


    “You don’t understand, this is the grasnd, it’s perfect for stargazing. Look, this is what a starry sky truly looks like.”


    The moment Qiao Ruoxin looked up, she was truly astounded. The images of the starry skies she had seen online were right before her eyes, breathtakingly beautiful.


    Mo Chen frowned, nced up, and was unmoved.


    He didn’t see what was so special about it.


    …


    The bonfire party continued in full swing.


    She and Mo Chen reached a secluded spot, sitting on a massive rock, savoring the expanse of the starry sky.


    In the distance behind them was the bonfire party, and even at this far-off remove, the jubnt atmosphere of the event was palpable.


    Qiao Ruoxin rested on the man’s shoulder, gazing up at the stars, “These stars are different from what you see in the city, you can see so many more stars here.”


    “Mmm…” The man responded nomittally.


    “Mo Chen, Brother.”


    “Hmm?” He looked down at the Little Ghost’s profile, the intery of light and shadow casting a mysterious allure.


    “Are you with me because you like my type?”


    Mo Chen’s brows knitted slightly, “Otherwise?”


    Would anyone be with a type they didn’t like?


    She hummed softly, “That only proves I’m your ideal type. If I were totally not your type, but you still wanted to be with me, that would be love.”


    Mo Chen scoffed disdainfully, “Stop reading those brain-dead quotes.”


    “…”


    This damn man really has a venomous tongue.


    The man wrapped his arms around her slender waist, hisnguid voice slowly began, “Little Ghost, all you need to know is that I love you, I can’t live without you, that’s enough. Don’t overthink the rest.”


    She smiled sweetly, “Okay.”


    “Let’s get married, okay?” He looked down at Qiao Ruoxin’s face.


    Qiao Ruoxin looked up, blinking, “If I say no, will you strangle me on the spot?”


    “You could try.” The man’s gaze was deep and serious, patiently waiting for her answer.


    She grinned, “Okay, let’s get married. I want to be Mrs. Mo.”


    The title of Mrs. Mo inexplicably pleased Mr. Mo.


    He lowered his head to approach slowly; Qiao Ruoxin considerately closed her eyes, waiting for the fiery kiss toe.


    However, watching her obedient appearance, Mo Chen’s lips curved up, and he stared a few seconds longer, “Why are you closing your eyes? Want a kiss?”


    Qiao Ruoxin suddenly opened her eyes, damn it! She’d been teased!


    “Love it or leave it!” She huffed and left his shoulder.


    But Mo Chen’srge palm caught her head, bending down to kiss her deeply, so tenderly and lingering as if kissing his most precious treasure.


    “Mmm! If you’re going to kiss, do it properly, why are you biting me?”


    The man, his voice husky, pressed his forehead against hers, “Little Ghost, let me ask you something.”


    “Go ahead.”


    “If after two years, you still haven’t escaped back here, and won’te back to find me, would you marry someone else?”


    “…” She really needed to think about it, but such a hypothetical was simply impossible.


    Mo Chen gazed into her eyes, observing every subtle change in her expression.


    She said, “I want toe back to find you, even though I thought maybe you’d have a new love by then. But I still wanted to see you, just once, even if from afar. So, I would find you no matter what. If you had a girlfriend, I’d congratte you. If not, I’d chase you back.”


    The man smiled, yet his smile held a touch of mncholy.


    “But if I saw you and discovered you were with another man, I might force you to break up with him immediately.”


    “…”


    Not surprisingly at all, that was Mr. Mo’s explosive nature – simple and violent.


    Mo Chen looked at her; indeed, this Little Ghost was reasonable, while he was the hot-tempered and impulsive type.


    He wrapped Qiao Ruoxin in his arms as if trying to fuse her into his bones and blood.


    “I like you, a lot, extremely, immensely, liked you from the very first moment I saw you, even though you were still very young. It was a bit perverted.”


    Qiao Ruoxin was stunned for a few seconds, then lifted her arms to embrace his body.


    “Mo Chen, brother…”


    “So, you can only marry me, understand? You have no choice!”


    “I like you too, I’ve never liked any other man but you.”


    What she said was true; she’d always found boys to be irksome ever since she was little.


    Even after growing up, though many men pursued her, she hadn’t been interested in any of them.


    Since bing Mo Chen’s woman, she had never taken an interest in another man.


    All the fantasies she had about the world of love were satisfied by Mo Chen.


    Mo Chen scoffed, “I fucking well know it, I just wanted to be your first man.”


    “Yes, yes, you are the first and thest.”


    “Mmm, good girl.” He buried his head in the Little Ghost’s fragrant shoulder, inhaling the exclusive soft fragrance of her.
