CHAPTER 267: CHAPTER 267: GOING CAMPING TOGETHER (PART 3)
"Mo Siyu."
Tang Yue threw herself into Mo Siyu’s arms the moment she saw him, feeling incredibly happy.
Mo Siyu steadily caught her, his lips incessantly turning upwards into a smile, her light fragrance very pleasing, seemingly dispelling all his weariness.
"You didn’t come back for the New Year, how come you have time to come back now?" Tang Yue’s excitement gradually calmed, and she looked up at him with bright, sparkling eyes.
"My little fairy is about to take the college entrance exam, even if it were at the ends of the earth, I’d fly back here," Mo Siyu’s eyes were filled with smiles, always cold-faced to subordinates and others, but in front of Tang Yue, he could always show his true self, feeling utterly relaxed in body and spirit.
Conservative with words with others, he found himself talking more in front of Tang Yue, unable to resist teasing her.
"Nonsense." Tang Yue smiled, her eyes curving, and pretended to glare at him, saying, "Little fairies are free and easy in the heavens, how could they need to take such a pitiful college entrance exam?"
"My little fairy is taking the exam," Mo Siyu said, wrapping his arm around her waist, feeling she seemed a bit thinner, her waist even slimmer, he said, "Have you not been eating well this past year? Why are you thinner?"
"I haven’t lost weight," Tang Yue blinked, puffing her cheeks saying, "I actually gained a pound."
Last year, when she returned from Jing City, she had lost five pounds, but later, not only did she gain it back, but she also gained an extra pound.
"Really?" Mo Siyu observed her, seemingly better in figure than the last time.
Tang Yue subconsciously wrapped her arms around herself, her face flushed as she scolded, "Shameless, where are your eyes looking?"
"Xiao Yue, I was just looking at the flowers on your shirt," Mo Siyu said seriously, pulling Tang Yue into his arms, his forehead against hers, "Xiao Yue, you have five days until your exam, perfect, tomorrow and the day after let’s go camping, to relax."
"Camping?" Tang Yue hesitated, "My parents definitely won’t agree."
"Don’t worry, I’ll arrange it," Mo Siyu happily took over the conversation.
Before Tang Yue could ask how he would arrange it, Mo Siyu took advantage of her.
His breath enveloped her tightly, Tang Yue’s heart fluttered, feeling like she was struck by electricity, unable to stand steadily, she nestled against Mo Siyu.
This time, after not seeing each other for almost half a year, his figure would unconsciously come to mind in the quiet of the night.
Even though he hadn’t said he missed her since they met, from his eyes, that extreme longing seemed to tell her, just like her, he missed her dearly.
Tang Yue responded softly, though she had been married in a previous life, with Wu Xinming, she was never proactive, even those private matters just perfunctory. Sometimes, she disliked Wu Xinming’s touch and wondered if there was something wrong with her physically, disliking that aspect very much.
Only now did Tang Yue understand, initially, she was just coveting the warmth Wu Xinming provided, even if she thought she liked Wu Xinming, her body truly and clearly told her, she did not like Wu Xinming.
Regrettably, she didn’t grasp this until her death.
Mo Siyu felt her response, his heart blossoming, until...
Tang Yue covered her lips, her clear eyes shimmering with more allure than usual, unhappily said, "You dog."
"Who told you to be distracted?" Mo Siyu raised his eyebrows slightly, lowered his head to meet her gaze, his dark eyes locking onto hers, his Adam’s apple moved, his deep and husky voice clearly reaching Tang Yue’s ears.
"Xiao Yue, I can’t help but feel this way. Can you understand? If you don’t like it, I won’t force you."
Mo Siyu spoke sincerely, every word coming from the bottom of his heart, his gaze almost tangible as it made Tang Yue even more shy.
Tang Yue’s face turned even redder, her long lashes trembled, and she glared at him as if to say, how could you ask such a question?
If she answered that she likes it, would it make others think she’s too immodest or too casual?
If she answered that she doesn’t like it, it would be against her heart, and it would upset Mo Siyu.
When feelings run deep, one naturally hopes to be closer to the other person, making her heart rejoice, but to actually say it, Tang Yue truly couldn’t voice it out.
"Xiao Yue."
Mo Siyu’s hand rested on her waist and he said, "I like you, so I want to be close to you, wishing I could be with you all the time."
Mo Siyu’s hand suddenly let go, and his downcast eyes made it hard to read his emotions.
At that moment, Tang Yue felt a tightening in her heart, as if he was going to leave.
"Mo Siyu."
Tang Yue grabbed his hand, her bright eyes flickering, she looked up and after a long moment, she took the initiative with a quick peck on his lips like a dragonfly skimming water, and after all that she was as red as a boiled shrimp, her eyes bright and shining looking at him, as if to say: This is my answer.
"Xiao Yue."
Mo Siyu held her as she tried to pull away, but it was more than just a dragonfly skimming water kiss.
Tang Yue belatedly realized, Mo Siyu was retreating in order to advance, it was all intentional!

As soon as Tang Yue got home, she headed straight to her room and sat down next to the mirror, staring at her lips which appeared more delicate than usual, and couldn’t help but silently curse Mo Siyu in her heart, if it weren’t for her young age, who knows, he might have devoured her entirely.
"Sis, dinner’s ready." The voice of Tang Jun came from outside the door.
Tang Yue glanced at the time, only then realizing that she had been staring blankly in front of the mirror for an hour.
She looked left and right, making sure there was no issue, then went out to eat. After dinner, Tang Yue went back to her room early. The college entrance examination was coming up soon, and Zhang Hualian and others knew about Tang Yue’s intention to study hard and did not disturb her.
"Second brother, sister-in-law." Tang Mingli came over carrying his son Tang You’an.
"Anan." Zhang Hualian saw the chubby Tang You’an and stretched out her hands to hold him, the eight-month-old Tang You’an, who was growing very well, plump and white, and not shy with strangers, took after Tang Mingli, and was also very good-looking.
"Come to auntie." Zhang Hualian coaxed Tang You’an, as if she saw Tang Jun when he was a child, back then the family was poor, but Tang Jun was also very well-grown.
"It’s like this, Xiao Yue will soon have her college entrance exams, so, I was thinking of taking Xiao Yue and others out to relax." Tang Mingli explained his purpose, saying, "Just next to Wangjiang County, isn’t there a Xiushui Town? There’s a lake there, right? And there are mountains nearby, the scenery is really beautiful, the lotuses in the lake have bloomed, they’re especially beautiful."
