his little warmth

Chapter 63
It was already getting late. Cheng Mu and Jiang Nuanxing left the park and took Xiao Mu back to the store.

After some constant "teaching" by Cheng Mu, Xiao Mu somehow plucked up the courage and not only successfully got into the children's play circle, but also unexpectedly made friends.

In the end, Xiao Mu happily went home with his friends.

As night fell, the crowds in the shops became thinner.

Cheng Mu went into the store and bought a cup of milk tea, and sat on the leisure chair side by side with Jiang Nuanxing.

The boy's straight and slender legs were slightly draped over the end of the chair, and the milk tea in his hand was still filled with mist.

Cheng Mu opened the lid and let it cool for a while before handing it to her hand.

"Is the game over?" The warm milk tea passed through the paper cup and sent warmth to the palms. Jiang Nuanxing held the cup tightly and asked him softly.

Cheng Mu nodded casually, "It's over...half of it, we have to go back tomorrow."

His own schedule is over, but there are still those brats left.

As the captain, Cheng Mu is also the backbone of the entire team. He has to go back and take charge.

"In such a hurry?" Jiang Nuanxing was surprised, "Then why are you still here?"

"I'm worried, so I rushed over to accompany you."

He spoke easily, but his busy schedule put a layer of tiredness on his face.

Jiang Nuanxing was helpless. She was no longer a child. What else could he be worried about?
"Then go back, don't wait any longer." Jiang Nuanxing stood up and pulled him up.

"Let's go back to bed."

"Huh?" Cheng Mu lazily raised his eyes, not forgetting to tease her even though he was very sleepy.

"Sleeping? Just the two of us?"

Jiang Nuanxing glanced at him, "What a beautiful idea. If you don't have your tent, you can sleep outside by yourself!"

Her voice was soft even when she was having a little temper.

Cheng Mu touched his cheek lightly with the tip of his tongue, with a hint of scorn in his expression, "Then I won't leave. Didn't I agree to wait for my classmates?"

"Let's wait together."

This morning, Cheng Mu saw Xiao Ping helping Jiang Nuanxing carry something. He originally wanted to rush over and give a warning, but unfortunately the boy happened to go to help Ling Huan carry something.

Hehe, he was lucky in the morning, but not necessarily tonight.

Cheng Mu sat on the stool and really didn't plan to leave.

Jiang Nuanxing, on the other hand, looked indifferent. She put the milk tea into Cheng Mu's hand and threatened her softly.

"I have already written a piece of paper and left a message for Xiao Ping. If you don't leave, then shall I leave?"

Cheng Mu raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Ping can teach him a lesson anytime, but how can he rest assured when Jiang Nuanxing leaves alone?

"…Let's go together."

Cheng Mu drank the milk tea in two gulps, stood up with Jiang Nuanxing, and held her small hand in his big hand.

The two facing figures walked farther and farther away.

-

Street on the other side.

The night sky is blurred by the evening breeze, and the moonlight shines through the sparse branches, casting a deserted light and shadow on the ground. It is far away from the sound of people, and the streets are even more quiet.

Xiao Ping's face was cold and helpless: "Yuan Li'er said that a classmate encountered difficulties and needed my help, so she hurriedly pulled me over."

"What's the result? You lied to me."

"What's the matter with you?"

"Xiao Ping, do you have to be so indifferent to me?" Shen Xian asked as calmly as possible, holding her skirt tightly.

"We are childhood sweethearts and have grown up together. Do you really have no feelings for me at all?"

"Shen Xian," Xiao Ping's face turned completely cold.

"My feelings for you are that of a friend and a sister. Other feelings are reluctant to come. I already have someone I like. Please don't pester me anymore."

What he said was crisp and clear.

Shen Xian's face instantly turned pale.

"It turns out Li'er didn't lie to me. You really...you really have someone you like!"

Xiao Ping pursed his lips and remained silent, acquiescing.

Shen Xian bit her lip tightly, feeling uncomfortable in her heart, but her mouth seemed to be maintaining the last trace of dignity.

"Okay, let's make it clear. I hope... you and the people you like will have a good life, and I... won't pester you in the future."

When he mentioned the person he liked, Xiao Ping's expression finally softened a bit.

"Thank you. If nothing happens, I'm going back. She's still waiting for me."

After Xiao Ping finished speaking, he turned around.

Then there was a pause, which seemed to be the last tenderness between friends.

"You should go back early, too."

The moon in the night sky finally hung high on the treetops. The dim moonlight gave off a bright light, and the night scene was very lonely.

Shen Xian watched the tall figure of the boy disappearing into the night and getting further away, and tears finally burst out of her eyes.

The street was very quiet, and there seemed to be the sound of children playing not far away.

The evening breeze blew gently, and the girl's sobbing cries were mixed with laughter, making it even more tragic.

Gradually, the crying stopped.

Shen Xian's delicate face showed a look of severity that was different from her age.

He said feelings cannot be forced.

But love is never satisfactory.

What if...she had to force herself.
