Chapter 217: You Are My Sky

Looking at Yun Xiangxiang who tried to look awe-inspiring as she gulped down the water with her eyes closed, a smile spread from Song Mian’s eyes .

They sat around for about half an hour before Song Mian held her hand and took her toward the dense jungle before them .

“Where are you taking me?” Yun Xiangxiang was curious . She thought Song Mian took her to the mountain for a stroll .

“Not far now . Just up ahead,” Song Mian didn’t answer directly .

After going through something resembling a dirt path, a stone path revealed itself before them . Following the two turns along the path, they were greeted by a wooden door and a fence . They were only nearing it, and there were already dogs barking inside .

Someone then came to open the door . He was a mustached middle-aged man . As he knew Song Mian, he opened the door, “Mr . Song, you have arrived . ”

“I’m bringing my girlfriend for a spin here at your place,” Song Mian introduced Yun Xiangxiang .

“Mr . Song, your girlfriend is gorgeous,” he praised .

Song Mian looked at the couple of moles on her face with a smile in his eyes, “She is . ”

“Well, someone’s shameless,” Yun Xiangxiang glared at him .

“It’s all vegetarian here,” Song Mian still smiled lovingly as he took Yun Xiangxiang inside .

Yun Xiangxiang found out it was a vegetable garden . It was designed beautifully, and it had various veggies too .

There were eggplants and tomatoes hanging in the air, as well as some pumpkin stands . But the pumpkins were absent . It was probably not in season .

“What will you have today, Mr . Song?” the owner of the courtyard asked .

“The freshest dishes will be fine,” Song Mian requested . He took a basket before taking Yun Xiangxiang and went past the vegetable garden, revealing loquat trees, apple trees, and a strawberry farm .

There were fruits there . Yun Xiangxiang exclaimed, “There are even loquats here!”

It was the season of loquats’ maturation . Loquats couldn’t take the cold . Its tree would blossom in autumn and winter, only bearing fruit in spring .

Beijing’s winter was freezing . Loquats would die from the cold if planted in Beijing . But its fruits looked golden here . Just looking at them could work up her appetite .

“As long as you know the symptoms and prevent it from being taken out, naturally they would bear fruit,” Song Mian handed the basket to Yun Xiangxiang . “Take whatever you want . ”

“Isn’t this supposed to be a boyfriend thing?” Yun Xiangxiang asked as if it were a matter of course .

“And I thought my girlfriend would enjoy working herself more . I seem to be mistaken . Hold on a second, my girlfriend…”

“I’m doing it myself,” Yun Xiangxiang snatched the basket away .

Since she came here, she had to enjoy the process of picking the fruits herself . She could just buy it if she wanted it ready-made . She was just teasing Song Mian out of habit .

Yun Xiangxiang searched for the largest strawberry and picked more than a dozen of them before going on to pick four apples .

When she arrived at the loquat tree, she gave Song Mian the basket before jumping up and hanging onto a twig . Grasping the branches, she quickly went to the highest fork and plucked a few clusters that were facing the sun . She would then put them in her pockets .

It just so happened she was in her casual attire today . She would have trouble keeping those loquats otherwise .

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t come down immediately after she was finished with the plucking . She lay against a branch high up there, looking down upon Song Mian . She took one loquat out, peeled it and wrapped it with paper before eating it on the tree .

“En, it’s so sweet . You want some?” Yun Xiangxiang seduced Song Mian with a look of enjoyment .

Song Mian immediately played along with her, “Yes, I do . ”

“Beg for it, then,” Yun Xiangxiang gave him a smug look as if she pulled off her devilish prank .

Song Mian thought his girlfriend had a lot of faces . She would be different every time . She might be childish now, but he felt inexplicably sweet . “I don’t have a smooth tongue . How should I beg for it from my girlfriend?”

“Praise me . I’ll give you some if it’s nice,” Yun XIangxiang quickly chose a good spot and sat down . She took another loquat out and started peeling its skin .

“My girlfriend is empathetic, intelligent, gentle, best in the world, has unparalleled beauty and talent…,” Song Mian praised her seriously .

Yun Xiangxiang kept on listening as she secretly enjoyed it . Song Mian didn’t stop without her command . He had a great vocabulary, showing no signs of slowing down even after more than ten minutes .

Yun Xiangxiang peeled another one before jumping down the tree and went up to feed Song Mian the loquat she had in her hand .

“It’s sweet,” Song Mian smacked his lips after finishing it .

Yun Xiangxiang rolled her eyes . She threw the trash away and looked for a water source to wash her hands and the fruits .

When she was about to go to the kitchen to take a plate and cut up the fruits, Song Mian took the basket from her hands, “This is the kind of stuff your boyfriend should do for you . ”

Yun Xiangxiang let the basket go and sat down on a spot beneath a natural wooden stand that had many leaves entangling it .

It was cool and had dappled sunlight shining through it . They had a swing chair . Extending her legs, she swayed slightly . She closed her eyes, enjoying the feeling .

Yun Xiangxiang was surprised Song Mian made a beautiful platter . Aside from the fruits she picked, there were also Indian jujubes and bananas .

These fruits were probably bought by the shopkeeper . With its various colors in it, the platter became tantalizing .

“I want to swing . Feed me,” Yun Xiangxiang kicked the ground and started swinging back and forth .

Song Mian speared a piece with a toothpick . He fed it to Yun Xiangxiang as she got closer, and she bit the piece of fruit off .

Yun Xiangxiang suddenly wanted to play . As she played and ate, Song Mian didn’t complain, and only fed her patiently .

“I shouldn’t keep this up . I can’t have dinner if I keep on eating this,” Yun Xiangxiang stopped . She looked at the platter that she had eaten two-thirds of . “You finish the rest . ”

“Sure,” Song Mian agreed readily . He sat down beside Yun Xiangxiang and started eating the fruits .

Yun Xiangxiang leaned on his shoulders . Raising her eyes, she looked at the drifting clouds in the sky . “Ah Mian, I think I am just like the clouds in a clear sky . ”

“En . Soft, warm, and flawlessly fair,” Song Mian agreed .

“Not like that,” Yun Xiangxiang denied that answer . “I am like the clouds under the sky, and you are the sky for me . You gave me a huge space for me to fly around unfettered and free . ”

Yun Xiangxiang was already relaxed when she was together with Song Mian . Now that he brought her to this place which was so close to nature, he immediately washed away all the fatigue that clung to her from before .

“I think I should slow down and take a look at the scenery around me, remembering all the beauty brushing past me . ”

Yun Xiangxiang’s mind also had a subtle change . Because of her past life, she was constantly working herself to the bone and was used to getting herself busy with work . She thought this was the only way to keep her soul from feeling empty .

There was nothing wrong with hard work, but she should learn how to relax occasionally and learn how to contemplate slowly . If she looked at things in a different way, perhaps her life would be more colorful .

She was no longer alone in this life .
