Most young men and women of the Miao ethnic group are passionate and unrestrained when it comes to relationships.
If you like it, you just like it, and if you like it, you should sing it loudly.
They don't coyly hide their thoughts in their hearts and wait for others to guess, which Xu Ziyin admires very much.
Men and women, at most, only have trivial things, hiding them and waiting for their partner to discover them. If they guess correctly, everyone will be happy, but if they guess incorrectly, they will get sullen for no reason. Isn't this just looking for trouble?
The full moon is in the sky.
Accompanied by the rising bonfire, laughter and laughter spread by the Yingyue Lake.
One after another, Miao men poked their heads out of the water, but their empty hands also indicated that their trip was in vain.
However, they were not upset and jumped ashore to continue joining the dancing army.
Xu Ziyin looked interesting and looked at Yun Xianyu aside and asked.
"Xianyu, why do I feel that none of these people have picked flowers?"
Pursing her lips and smiling, Yun Xianyu whispered.
"Yingyue Lake is very deep."
"Even if you have good water quality, it is difficult to dive to the bottom of the lake. In addition, the lake water is cold this season, which makes it even more difficult."
"But picking flowers is a ritual. If you dare to jump, you are already a brave person. No Miao girl will feel that her partner is dissatisfied if he fails to pick flowers."
Xu Ziyin nodded without comment.
Speaking of which, he was quite curious about flowers that could grow in water, but looking at the Miao men who returned without success, he could only temporarily put aside his desire to find out.
…………
Happy time is always short.
As time goes by, the coolness in the air deepens, and Yingyue Lake is gradually covered by the white mist.
The Miao people returned to their homes one after another.
After a while, only Xu Ziyin and three others were left standing on the shore of Yingyue Lake.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Ziyin smiled.
"We're going back later."
"We have class tomorrow."
After a hum, Yun Xianyu said softly.
"Then I'll go back and clean up, and then let Uncle Li drive the boat to take us out."
With that said, Yun Xianyu took her sister's little hand and left here.
Perhaps knowing that Xu Ziyin had something to say to him, Song Shi tightened his coat and squatted on the stone steps on the shore, staring at the reflection of the bright moon in the water, dazed.
————
The unburned bonfire faintly reflected Xu Ziyin's complicated face.
After a long silence, he said softly.
"Shishi, I have something to tell you."
Hearing this, Song Shi turned around and glanced at Xu Ziyin, and then tried hard to calm down her mind.
"Do you want to talk about Xianyu?"
Song Shi is not stupid, but extremely smart.
In the two days since she came to Miao Village from Suzhou, she found more than once that Xu Ziyin was hesitant to speak.
With their current relationship, what else is there that Xu Ziyin can't make a choice about or talk about?
Naturally, it is Xianyu.
Girls in love are sensitive, and you can tell the clues from many details.
Xu Ziyin thought he hid it well, but in fact, in Song Shi's eyes, his relationship with Xianyu was a bit too subtle.
"You know everything?"
After being stunned, Xu Ziyin suddenly felt a little relaxed.
Shaking her head, Song Shi didn't reply. She just looked at the lake with dull eyes, a look of relief or disappointment on her face.
After a while she said quietly.
"Xu Ziyin, do you know, in fact, I have been waiting for you to speak for the past two days."
"But I'm afraid you'll talk to me."
…………
The picture in his imagination did not appear. Song Shi's reaction was very calm, as if he had been waiting for this moment to come.
Sitting down next to her, Xu Ziyin looked side by side at the bright moon shadow hidden in the mist in the center of the lake, and then sighed.
"I don't want to hide it from you."
"Whether you think I'm a scumbag or a scumbag, I think I should be honest with you."
"It would be disrespectful to you if you keep hiding it."
"so……"
Looking sideways into Xu Ziyin's eyes, Song Shi said bitterly.
"So you want to break up with me?"
separate?
Xu Ziyin was stunned and blurted out.
"I didn't say I wanted to break up with you."
Song Shi couldn't finish this sentence in an instant.
Since you are not here to break up with me, why are you suddenly telling me this?
In Song Shi's mind, she had indeed thought about this scene.
It was normal for lovers to break up. She had no illusions that she and Xu Ziyin would never have conflicts, but this day came too quickly.
But now Xu Ziyin revealed his feelings to her but it was not for the purpose of breaking up, which really made Song Shi a little confused.
Could it be that you held it in for so long just to tell me that you also like Xianyu?
So what's the point?
Isn’t it just adding to the troubles and estrangement between each other?
Looking at the pair of eyes that were gradually filled with mist, Xu Ziyin couldn't bear it, but he still gritted his teeth and said slowly.
"Shishi, I admit that these words hurt people, but I have to say them because I don't want to deceive you. This is unfair to you and Xianyu."
"so what?"
"Do you want me to be more conscious and quit on my own initiative?"
Lonely smiled, Song Shi suddenly felt ridiculous.
She really likes Xu Ziyin, really, really likes him.
In her opinion, she should always be with Xu Ziyin from graduation to marriage.
This should be the most perfect love in every girl's mind.
Otherwise, she would not have chosen to call Xu Ziyin home on her birthday to let her parents know about their relationship.
She didn't say it, but she was actually very concerned about Xu Ziyin's thoughts.
Otherwise, given her character, why would she think of using that shameful way to make herself thrive? Doesn't it mean that he likes women with big breasts?
But the scene in front of her suddenly felt strange to her.
The boy I like also likes other girls.
Looking at the girl who had tears welling up in her eyes but still trying hard to pretend to be strong with her tight little face, Xu Ziyin felt a pain in his heart and then said in a deep voice.
"Shishi, I have never thought about breaking up with you. I have never thought about it."
"I will confess this to you today, just, just..."
After all, Xu Ziyin still didn't know how to say that sentence.
"Just what?"
"Is it possible that you still want Xianyu and me to be your girlfriends together?"
Song Shi's seemingly joking sentence suddenly silenced Xu Ziyin.
After waiting for a while but no reaction from Xu Ziyin, Song Shi's eyes gradually widened.
Could it be that he was right?
She felt angry and funny in her heart.
How could this person have such ridiculous ideas?
How dare he think about two people being his girlfriend?
…………
When the topic reached this point, Xu Ziyin actually had nothing to hesitate about.
He pondered over and over again and said.
"Shishi, you know Xianyu's character. She won't fight for anything. All she wants is to be able to stay by my side."
"Just like it is now."
"How is it now?"
Hearing this, the tone of Song poetry suddenly rose much higher.
She suddenly stood up, looked down at Xu Ziyin, and her breathing became rapid.
"Xu Ziyin, are you crazy?"
"You know what you're talking about?"
"I know."
"I just want you all to be my girlfriend, that's all."
"Xianyu won't compete with you for anything. All she needs is that I can accompany her occasionally."
That's it, nothing more?
Song Shi almost laughed out of anger.
However, she didn't feel very sad in her heart. Instead, she felt a sense of relief flowing in her heart.
Some words may seem difficult to say, but actually saying them is not as difficult as imagined.
Looking up at the girl's cold face, Xu Ziyin's tone softened again.
"Shishi, I know this request is very difficult, but I really don't know what to do."
"Both of you, I don't want to give up either of you."
"Don't want to give up? Okay."
Song Shi suddenly laughed.
She stretched out her finger and pointed at the cold lake surface, smiling.
"No one has picked flowers from the bottom of the lake tonight. If you jump in and pick a flower, I will promise you."
As soon as Song Shi finished speaking, there was only a thud.
A person as big as Xu Ziyin disappeared from her eyes, leaving only ripples on the lake surface.
Not even a second of hesitation.
Seeing this scene, Song Shi panicked for a moment.
She just wanted to ridicule Xu Ziyin out of anger, but she never thought about actually asking her to pick those flowers.
Xianyu said before that the lake is very deep and there are so many Miao men who are good at swimming but there is nothing they can do. Who knows if Xu Ziyin can swim.
Besides, the lake is so cold now.
"Hey, Xu Ziyin, I'm joking with you, come up quickly."
Song Shi shouted loudly towards the lake.
But the only response to her was the calm and unrippled lake surface.
——————
——————
Xu Ziyin never expected that Song Shi would say this.
Regardless of whether what she said was true or false, at least there was a certain amount of room left in her words.
When the time comes that you actually pick the flowers and bring them to the shore, you will be able to express your feelings, right?
But should I say it, the water was really cold. In just a moment, Xu Ziyin felt that his internal organs were about to freeze.
Fortunately, the lake water was clear enough for him to see the underwater scene clearly.
Xu Ziyin can swim. He grew up by the sea in his previous life and is naturally good at water.
To dive in suddenly, he only relied on his breath. If his breath was not steady, he could only dive to the shore, otherwise he was afraid something would happen.
If the system hadn't improved his strong physique, Xu Ziyin really wouldn't have that confidence.
There was no time to think about anything else, Xu Ziyin quickly dived to the bottom of the lake.
…………
The clear lake water is like a blue mirror, staring at the world together with the bright moon in the sky.
Standing on the shore, Song Shi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
After calling several times but no response came, Song Shi took out her mobile phone and called Yun Xianyu in a panic, ignoring the others.
The phone rang for a few seconds before being answered.
There was no time to talk nonsense, Song Shi said directly.
"Xianyu, come here quickly, Xu Ziyin jumped into the lake."
After hearing this, there was a "bang" sound from the other end of the phone, a sound of seats colliding and falling, and then the phone was hung up and a beeping busy tone was heard.
…………
After reaching the bottom of the lake with a sigh of relief, Xu Ziyin finally saw the scene at the bottom of the lake clearly.
There are no flowers that can grow under water. They are actually just stones shaped like flowers.
Among the dense water plants, brightly colored stones are dotted among them.
Xu Ziyin seriously doubted whether the rumor about the Moon Fairy sowing seeds into the world was a lie deliberately fabricated by the ancestors of the Miao people.
And these lifelike "flowers" are probably their masterpieces.
After searching for a while, Xu Ziyin found the brightest colored stone and put it in his pocket and was about to return to the water. However, after thinking for a moment, he touched another stone and stuffed it into his pocket.
…………
Just when Song Shi was standing on the shore, closing her eyes and secretly praying that nothing would happen to Xu Ziyin.
There was a sound of rushing water.
The next moment, a soaked man jumped up from the lake.
Looking at the man, Song Shi's breath trembled, and then she rushed over, her fists hitting his chest like raindrops.
"You don't want your life?"
"You just want to die that much, don't you?"
Letting the girl vent her anger in his arms, Xu Ziyin licked his smile, but his teeth were trembling with coldness.
After Song Shi finished venting, Xu Ziyin squeezed out a smile from his pale face, and then slowly stretched out his tightly held palm.
Open your palm, and there is a shining flower inside.
Under the shadow of the moon, the beautiful flowers shine with hazy and fantastic colors.
Staring blankly at the flowers in Xu Ziyin's hand, and seeing him drenched and crumbling, Song Shi couldn't hold back any longer, opened her small mouth, grabbed his arm, and bit it down hard.
, and then burst into tears again.
This was the first time Xu Ziyin saw Miss Song, who had always been careless and heartless, crying so loudly in front of him.
However, Xu Ziyin's mind relaxed in an instant.
It's good to have a reaction.
What he fears most is plain indifference, which is the most suffocating despair.
Having a reaction shows that the matter is not without room for negotiation.
Even if she doesn't agree immediately.
But at least this matter has been talked about openly, and I can try to open her heart step by step in the future.
…………
…………
A firelight lit up in the darkness.
Yun Xianyu held a torch in one hand and her skirt in the other and hurried to Yingyue Lake.
He didn't know why Xu Ziyin suddenly chose to jump into the lake, but he knew without thinking that it must have something to do with him.
Thinking of what he had said to her last night, Yun Xianyu felt panicked for no reason.
Did the relationship with Shishi break down?
It should be true, not everyone will be able to tolerate another girl being by Xu Ziyin's side like him.
How could Xu Ziyin have acted in such a drastic way if the relationship hadn't broken down.
The pace was so hurried that Yun Xianyu had no time to think about it and hurried to Yingyue Lake.
But the moment she approached the shore, she suddenly stopped.
far away.
Under the bright moonlight.
A pair of figures embracing each other caught her eye.
(I didn’t originally want to write this chapter like this, as it felt uninteresting.)
(But thinking about it, it seems that the role of Song Shi is indeed a bit too much. It is obviously not the main palace but it takes up a large space of ink. Let’s just follow this plot.)
(Originally I wanted to write a story about breaking up and then pursuing a drama like Yunqing, but after thinking about it, I decided not to do it~ It’s enough to have Feiyan, and I don’t want to make it more difficult for the male protagonist.)
