It's very quiet here; across the lake, it's a bit far from the other side, where the willow trees droop silently, and there's hardly anyone around.
Pulling Chiang Xiao to this spot, Meng Xinian couldn't resist any longer and drew her into his arms, imprinting a kiss on her lips.
"Little, I missed you so much it hurts here." He grabbed her hand and placed it over his heart.
Thump, thump.
For the first time, Chiang Xiao realized that listening to a man's heartbeat could make her ears hot and her face flush.
"I also hmm hmm." Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, and the last two words were practically stuck in her mouth, impossible to pronounce.
Meng Xinian raised an eyebrow, "What's 'hmm hmm' supposed to mean?"
"I miss you!"
Facing him, Chiang Xiao couldn't help but show a little playfulness.
In front of Meng Xinian, Chiang Xiaoxiao seemed like a completely different person than Jiang Xiao in front of others.
