Chapter 227 Perhaps, this is fate.
After the map was drawn, looking at the ink that had not yet dried completely, Ji Mo suddenly thought of Lin Miaomiao who was far away at Ji's home.
Ji Mo raised his head and looked at the sky outside through the tent.
"I don't know how she is doing, is everything okay?" At the same time, Lin Miaomiao, who was practicing, seemed to feel something. She stood up and walked out of the yard, habitually looking towards Ji Mo's room.
There was total darkness, without any fire. Five days had passed since Ji Mo left.
"I wonder if everything is going well with the young master?"
"When can you come back?"
……
As the night deepened, the croaking sounds of frogs could be heard from the deep forest, giving people the illusion that they were still near Baishui Mountain.
At the end of the season, he put away all the maps in front of him and stretched out in the tent.
He was introverted and gently pinched his cheeks with his fingers. His expression moved slightly, and with the delicate adjustment, people could feel an air of fatigue emanating from him.
At the end of the season, he looked at his masterpiece and nodded with satisfaction.
The control of his facial expressions became more and more refined and habitual, which greatly improved his acting skills.
Ji Mo yawned and walked out of the tent. Now, it was his and Li Sun's turn to take over.
A breeze blew through the woods, and a white ribbon swayed from the tree.
When Ji Mo looked over, he saw neither Li Sun, who was supposed to take over, nor Bai Shui, who had a good relationship with Ji Mo.
On the branch, Ji Yun lowered his head and looked at Ji Mo with a slight smile.
"It seems that the 'companion' during this period has changed."
Ji Mo walked to the campfire and added some firewood. With the new fuel, the flames were suppressed at first, and then the suppressed flames shot up into the sky. The scorching temperature baked Ji Mo's body, making him warm and comfortable.
Ji Mo yawned again and walked towards Ji Yun. When he reached the tree, he jumped lightly and sat next to Ji Yun.
There was a distance of two people between them, far less close than Baishui.
Ji Yun looked at the space between the two of them and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Ji Mo looked at her, frowning slightly, as if he didn't quite understand what she was laughing at.
Of course, all this is fake.
Of course Ji Mo knew what she was laughing at, and he felt a little embarrassed when he heard the laughter.
The favorability she had with Baishui was too high before, which led to Baishui being very close to the end of the season. To outsiders, the two of them were very close, and there were even some elements of love between them.
In addition, Bai Shui has been getting up early in the morning to cook in recent days, and his sneaky and furtive behavior makes people guess what is going on.
"What are you laughing at?"
Ji Mo asked in a puzzled manner.
Ji Yun's brows were relaxed, his eyes revealed tenderness, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised like a crescent moon, his cheeks were slightly flushed, and his palms gently covered his lips.
She suppressed her smile and shook her head: "Nothing."
Her puffy cheeks and the smile in her eyes showed that she was trying to hold back a laugh.
Such an expression made Ji Mo speechless.
Ji Mo curled his lips and said nothing more.
Although Ji Mo was strong inside, he still felt an inexplicable shame when he encountered such a thing for the first time.
"Ah! I want to die. I shouldn't have done this. I'm just reaping the consequences."
Ji Mo thought so in his heart, but his expression did not change, and he still looked at Ji Yun with confusion.
The two of them were silent for a moment, and Ji Mo's mouth twitched unconsciously.
"Laugh if you want to. Looking at you, it's so uncomfortable to hold it back."
Before Ji Mo finished speaking, Ji Yun burst into laughter. Her laughter was not loud, but very gentle, giving people a sweet feeling.
The smile stained her cheeks red and her red lips opened and closed.
"At the end of the season, I didn't expect you to be so humorous"
After saying that, she continued to laugh. Ji Mo's tone and that look really hit her funny spot.
It was a response that showed one knew what Ji Yun was saying but had no choice but to give it a try, along with a quick glance.
Ji Mo didn't reply. At this time, he didn't know what to say. He had no such assumption in his mind.
He could only sigh softly.
And this sigh only made Ji Yun laugh even louder.
An unknown amount of time passed before Ji Yun, holding her stomach with flushed cheeks, finally stopped. She was gasping for breath, apparently due to lack of oxygen from laughing for too long.
She forced herself to calm down, and glanced at him dimly. Tears of laughter still remained in the corners of her eyes, and she rolled her eyes speechlessly.
Ji Yun was aware of this little action, and he almost laughed out loud again, having been trying to hold back.
Ji Yun moved a little closer to Ji Mo, poked Ji Mo's waist with her elbow, and raised her eyebrows slightly.
"I didn't realize you were so good at making girls happy."
"Oh? Why do you see it?"
Ji Mo looked at her in confusion, and she covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Stop pretending. Look at Baishui's recent actions."
Ji Yun seemed a little melancholy as she spoke, but this melancholy was quickly covered by a smile. She narrowed her eyes slightly, as if recalling the past.
"I've been with Baishui for so long, but I've never seen her get up early in the morning to cook before everyone else wakes up."
"We even chose the early morning hours to investigate this matter."
"And it's not with everyone, it's made specifically for someone."
"You should have seen her sneaky little movements in the early morning, too. She's so girly!"
Ji Mo curled his lips helplessly, "I didn't do anything."
"I don't know why this is happening."
Ji Yun looked at Ji Mo's cheek, poked Ji Mo's waist with her elbow again, and showed a smile that said I understand everything, you don't have to pretend. She turned her head and looked at the sky through the sparse leaves.
“But it feels good this way.”
"Baishui is a very good kid."
Ji Yun suddenly gave Ji Mo the feeling of an old mother, and her whole temperament changed from that of a young girl to that of a mature woman.
Her legs were undoubtedly swinging in the air, and the smile on her face became more and more intense, as if she was thinking of something extremely happy.
"It's really rare."
Ok?
Ji Mo looked at her in confusion, wondering what she was thinking about.
“I never thought that one day I would be sitting with my uncle’s son and talking about these things.”
“It’s incredible.”
This made Ji Mo extremely confused, and he asked curiously.
"Why do you say that?"
Ji Yun withdrew his gaze and looked at Ji Mo again.
"Since the generation of the previous patriarch, the various branches of the family have been seriously divided."
"Although we are all family, the intrigues and complicated affairs have long made this family lose its humanity."
"According to the lineage differentiation, we are completely incompatible with my uncle's family. Compared to your aunts, we are better off, but I can't imagine such a scene."
Ji Mo didn't expect Ji Yun to say this. Although he was strong inside, he couldn't help but think of what happened before. Ji Mo fell into silence for a rare time and he smiled bitterly.
"Maybe this is fate."
