[World 2] Chapter 36

　　Jiang Mu looked at the remaining crystal ball on the table without saying anything.

　　Zhao Jiajia got the necklace, Qin Siyu got the earrings, and Zhou Jing got the scarf.

　　No one wanted this crystal ball. They probably all thought that this crystal ball, a somewhat childish and old-fashioned gift, was chosen by Yang Cheng.

　　Jiang Mu did not take the crystal ball. She lowered her eyes slightly and no one could see her expression.

　　The expressions of the others were a little awkward; they didn't give Jiang Mu any chance to choose.

　　Zhao Jiajia said: "Mumu, we have chosen everything. You don't mind, do you? If you are not happy, how about we change it?"

　　"Once you've chosen a gift, of course you'll just pick it and go." Qin Siyu said with pursed lips.

　　Zhou Jing said: "It's all chosen randomly anyway. No one knows who was chosen in a blind selection. Why should we mind? There's nothing to change."

　　Zhao Jiajia appears to have good intentions, but in fact she is making Jiang Mu the target of public criticism. If Jiang Mu says that she is unhappy, then she is immature.

　　Jiang Mu smiled and said, "No, I like this crystal ball very much. I can also listen to music with it and it can accompany me to sleep at night."

　　After saying that, Jiang Mu opened the music box under the crystal ball, turned the spring, and pleasant music floated out.

　　It was the light music of the Castle in the Sky. It sounded very beautiful. The carousel in the crystal ball also turned along with it, and the snowflakes inside fluttered lightly.

　　The crystal clear crystal ball emits a faint pink light.

　　The corners of Jiang Mu's mouth also curved up.

　　"Who do you think chose this gift? It's so girly." Qin Siyu said jokingly, "It can't be Yang Cheng."

　　Qin Siyu's tone was almost certain that it was Yang Cheng, and her eyes narrowed with a smile.

　　Zhao Jiajia sneered in her heart, this crystal ball is too childish, it looks like a gift for children.

　　She glanced at the necklace in her hand and thought, even if it wasn't chosen by Wu Zeye, it should have been bought by Bai Xue. It's simple yet elegant, and it will definitely look good on her.

　　"Okay, now that the gifts have been chosen, let's go back to the room." Zhao Jiajia said with a smile, holding the necklace.

　　Zhou Jing nodded in agreement. Although she choose the last, there was nothing wrong with the scarf. At least it was better than the crystal ball. She looked at Jiang Mu pitifully.

　　"Then let's go to bed early tonight, because we have to get up early tomorrow."

　　According to the arrangement of the program team, they have to wait until tomorrow to find out who they will date with the gifts they chose.

　　Except for Jiang Mu who already knew the result, everyone else spent the night in anxiety and anticipation.

　　The next morning, everyone woke up very early.

　　A small envelope was stuffed into the crack of everyone's door, and Jiang Mu was no exception.

　　After Jiang Mu got dressed, she walked to the door and saw the envelope. She picked it up, opened it, and saw the following words written inside:

　　[ Please go to the manor gate now and take the vehicle with a white sign. You are about to embark on a warm and pleasant journey. ]

　　…..

　　At the same time, everyone else had already appeared at the gate of the manor, and Jiang Mu was the least active one.

　　The others got up and packed before dawn. They dressed up very beautifully and got into their own vehicles of different colors.

　　But when Zhao Jiajia saw that there was an orange logo on her car and a white logo on Jiang Mu's car, her face fell.

　　Qin Siyu's car has a black logo, while Zhou Jing's is green.

　　They both saw the orange logo on Zhao Jiajia's car, and roughly guessed in their hearts that Zhao Jiajia's date today was Yang Cheng.

　　But Qin Siyu was not in a good mood either. The white symbol was probably Bai Xue. Who could have guessed that Jiang Mu had picked Bai Xue by accident? Why would Bai Xue buy a crystal ball? It was really strange.

　　"Jia Jia, we're leaving first." Qin Siyu got into the car, opened the window and waved goodbye to Zhao Jiajia.

　　Zhao Jiajia forced a smile, "Okay, have fun."

　　Qin Siyu glanced at the orange logo, looked at Zhao Jiajia with a sad look, and said, "You too, have fun."

　　Zhao Jiajia's expression was almost out of control, but she still held back.

　　Zhou Jing also walked away behind Qin Siyu.

　　Zhao Jiajia took a deep breath and finally got in the car.

　　She could only comfort herself that the color of a sign didn't mean anything.

　　Maybe the program crew did it on purpose, trying to make them misunderstand.

　　Yes... that's probably the case.

　　She looked up and smiled at the driver, "You can go now."

　　The moment the vehicle started, Zhao Jiajia turned around and saw Jiang Mu who was late.

　　She was wearing a champagne-colored silver-thread long-sleeved dress with beautiful bows on the cuffs. The entire skirt was knee-length. In the sunlight, the dress reflected a crystal luster that was not dazzling but gentle, classy and lively. Coupled with Jiang Mu's soft, black, shiny and slightly curly long hair, she looked like a fairy walking out of the sky.

　　Zhao Jiajia's face darkened and she kept staring at Jiang Mu until the car drove away and Jiang Mu disappeared from her sight.

　　…..

　　Nearly an hour later, Jiang Mu's car stopped in front of the hot spring hotel.

　　Her date today was a trip to a hot spring.

　　After Jiang Mu got off the car, it drove away. The photographer was far away from her. She stood there waiting. Soon she saw Bai Xue walking towards her from a path on the right.

　　There were a few street lamps on the path where Bai Xue walked. They were not very bright, but a light warm yellow. When they shone on his cold face, he had a feeling of being as gentle and kind as jade.

　　Jiang Mu always felt that there seemed to be no lust in Bai Xue's eyes, they were clean and pure, and apart from a hint of melancholy and coldness, no other emotions could be seen.

　　This is also the biggest reason why Bai Xue fascinates her.

　　I really want to fill his eyes with madness and lust, to see him get jealous, to see how he looks when he's trapped in love.

　　The evil factor in Jiang Mu's heart was clamoring and jumping, and she wished she could turn into a demon, pounce on Bai Xue and entangle him.

　　However, it's not possible now. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

　　…..

　　Watching Bai Xue approaching, Jiang Mu's eyes were filled with deep surprise.

　　"It's really you." Jiang Mu looked at Bai Xue with joy and shyness.

　　Bai Xue's eyes fell on the crystal ball in her hand.

　　To be honest, Bai Xing didn't have any expectations that the gift he chose will be picked by Jiang Mu.

　　This crystal ball didn't seem like a gift he would buy. He hadn't originally said he wanted to buy this gift, but for some reason, when he saw the crystal ball, he thought of a gift he received as a child, and he picked it up for some reason. Later, when the clerk came to ask him about it, he simply bought it.

　　He wasn't really looking forward to the Valentine's Day date arranged by the show because he knew it was random and thought it might be as boring as his last date with Qin Siyu.

　　But unexpectedly, the person who came was Jiang Mu.

　　There seemed to be stars in Jiang Mu's eyes, twinkling with joy, and the look in her eyes when she looked at him was always so joyful and lovely.

　　Before, Bai Xue thought that Jiang Mu liked Wu Zeye, but in the past few days, Jiang Mu's behavior was not what he expected.

　　Jiang Mu took two steps at a time and walked to Bai Xue, holding up the crystal ball in her hand. "I like it very much. It keeps me company at night, and I don't feel lonely or scared anymore."

　　Bai Xue looked down at her, and he seemed to be able to imagine her curled up in bed pitifully, not daring to fall asleep.

　　Jiang Mu: "Actually, I'm very timid. Thank you for your gift. I feel very safe with it."

　　Bai Xue said softly, "As long as you like it."

　　"Yeah!" Jiang Mu looked up and smiled at him, her bright smile seemed to illuminate him.

　　Bai Xing slightly shifted his gaze away, his eyes slightly raised, "Let's go, let's go in first."

　　"Good."

　　Bai Xing led Jiang Mu inside and soon they arrived at the pool prepared by the program team. The environment here was very good, the buildings were very old, and the scenery was charming, like a fairy tale, making people linger. On the way here just now, Jiang Mu saw many people driving private cars in, which shows that this place is very popular.

　　But what Jiang Mu wanted to do was not to soak in the hot spring, but to watch Bai Xue soak in the hot spring.

　　She followed Bai Xue closely, but her eyes would look at Bai Xue from time to time.

　　Since it was a hot spring date, it should be just the two of them soaking in the same hot spring pool.

　　Thinking of this, Jiang Mu couldn't help but feel a little excited.

　　Bai Xue was wearing swimming trunks and soaking in the hot spring. His slim and beautiful figure was faintly visible in the hot water. The scene must have been very beautiful.

　　But just as she had the thought, she heard Bai Xue say, "You're here, I'm next door, call me if you need anything."

　　After saying that, Bai Xue turned around and went to the locker room next door, leaving Jiang Mu alone.

　　Before Jiang Mu could react, a staff member told her, "There is a supermarket in front of the locker room where you can buy swimsuits."

　　Jiang Mu didn't know she was going to take a hot spring bath before she came. She only had a crystal ball in her hand and didn't bring a swimsuit, so she had to go to the supermarket to buy one.

　　There were a lot of people in the supermarket, and Jiang Mu picked out a red one-piece swimsuit with a cherry pattern.

　　She changed into her swimsuit and walked into the hot spring pool, only to find that the white-walled hot spring pool was right next to her, only one meter away.

　　This is no different from taking a dip in a pool.

　　Jiang Mu's eyes lit up, and she shouted, "Bai Xue," as she stood by the hot spring pool.

　　Bai Xue originally had his back to her, but when he heard the voice he slowly turned around.

　　His face was a little blurry in the heat, but maybe because of the high temperature, his expression didn't seem so cold, but rather a little soft.

　　Jiang Mu looked down along his chin and saw his collarbone.

　　This is the real clavicle that can be used to raise fish.

　　Jiang Mu thought, I am raising fish in my heart, but you're raising fish in your collarbone, that's okay.

　　The hot spring area of this hot spring hotel has more than thirty different types of hot spring pools. Jiang Mu and Bai Xue are soaking in the same outdoor hot spring pool with no barriers between them. It is easier to relax in an open-air environment, but the two people in the hot spring pool can face each other, which makes people's heart beat faster and nervous.

　　Jiang Mu walked slowly into the hot spring, splashing water.

　　The water in the hot spring was very hot. Jiang Mu took a while to adjust herself before she dared to slowly soak her body in it.

　　As the hot water wrapped around her body, she immediately felt hot all over, and the warmth rushed into every part of her body. She couldn't help but let out a sigh.

　　Jiang Mu blinked and looked at Bai Xue.

　　There was hot air between the two hot springs, like smoke and fog, like a fairyland.

　　Bai Xue was in the mist, looking somewhere unknown, with his side profile facing her. She could see his body above the collarbone, which was so handsome that it didn't look like that of an ordinary person.

　　Obviously, Bai Xue's facial features are not very delicate, but the more you look at them, the more unforgettable they become. They give people a feeling of being out of reach yet delusionally attainable.

　　Like a fairy.

　　Jiang Mu repeated this word silently in her heart.

　　Jiang Mu's face was getting redder and redder in the heat. She slowly walked to the other side of the hot spring, only one meter away from Bai Xue, as if she could touch his shoulder with just a stretch of her hand.

　　"Bai Xue." Jiang Mu called his name softly.

　　Bai Xue slowly turned around.

　　The moment he looked back at her, his eyes were melancholy and deep, with a hint of doubt. Jiang Mu felt as if she had been hit and fainted.

　　It's just too delicious. It would be great if we could eat him right here and now.

　　"What's wrong?" Bai Xue's voice floated into her ears, giving her a fatal enjoyment.

　　Jiang Mu couldn't help but curl up her toes soaking in the water, and her whole body felt numb.

　　This was the first time that a man's voice could make her react.

　　"I feel so hot." Jiang Mu looked at Bai Xue without blinking, the emotions in her eyes flowing as if they were about to burst out.

　　She was sure that Bai Xue felt the glance she conveyed.

　　Bai Xue's expression was unnatural for a moment.

　　"The hot spring water is so hot, you'll be fine once you get used to it." Bai Xue said calmly.

　　Jiang Mu moved her toes in the water. The sound of the white water sluice was so beautiful that it not only stimulated her eardrums, but also disturbed her heart, making her feel empty and comfortable.
