Chapter 729 - This Girl Was So Hard to Please

Mu Xiaoxiao blushed. She wanted to retract her little hand as though it had been burnt, but it was held down by him.

"Hey!" She glared at him.

Yin Shaojie laughed and his chest vibrated against her back. Nibbling on her earlobe, he asked in a low, sexy voice, "When are you finally going to give it to me?"

This made Mu Xiaoxiao feel embarrassed and she shrank back, not wanting to answer him.

Who in the world would ask that so directly!

She thought for a while before saying, "Don't think I'll do… that just because you made a romantic atmosphere with some fireflies. I'm telling you it's of no use. I'm not that partial towards fireflies."

However, the scenery before her was pretty. It would always be one where she would treasure in her memories.

Yin Shaojie asked uncomprehendingly, "Don't you girls like fireflies and things like that?"

He still didn't understand why girls hated bugs but liked fireflies. Was it just because their butt lit up?

However, he didn't mind doing these so-called "romantic things" so long she liked it.

Mu Xiaoxiao laughed. "That was because I was young and naive. I thought they looked really pretty when I saw them in fairy tales or cartoons, but once I knew that they were actually bugs, the illusion faded and I decided it would be best to view them from afar. If I were to go amongst them, I would be frightened to death."

They did look like pretty little stars, but once she used her imagination, these little stars were all bugs which not only circled around people but also rested on their heads.

Mu Xiaoxiao felt goosebumps just thinking about this.

She was still very afraid of bugs.

Yin Shaojie felt lucky that he hadn't been able to find real fireflies and instead used these lights to create such an atmosphere.

"Don't you think you're spoiling the mood like this?" he said, pretending to be displeased.

He had spent so much effort to make this romantic, but here she was, trying to analyze the real nature of fireflies with him.

Mu Xiaoxiao shrugged. "You have to be reasonable when you're trying to be romantic too."

He couldn't help but laugh, "Alright, alright, alright. I'll take note of this in the future."

This girl was very hard to please.

However, no one had told him to like her. He was willing to do this for her, so long as she was happy.

Even though it was a little bit of a failure, trying to create a romantic atmosphere should be something interesting to reminisce about in the future, right?

After the pair had enough of being romantic, they prepared to go back to the campsite.

As they walked on the pavement, Yin Shaojie's ears pricked and he looked into the darkness of the forest.

"What's up?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked, puzzled, as she noticed him stop in his tracks.

"It's nothing." Yin Shaojie looked away. Holding her little hand tight, he walked on with her.

They could already see the tents and a bonfire from a distance.

Suddenly, Yin Shaojie stopped in his tracks, bent over, and picked up a stone.

Mu Xiaoxiao stared at him curiously.

Yin Shaojie smirked at her. With a flick of his wrist, he sent the stone flying into the forest.

"Aiyoh," came a shriek from within.

Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened. Alert, she called out, "Who's there!"

Yin Shaojie seemed to know who it was. His lips curled downwards and he commanded coldly, "Come out."

There was silence in the forest for a few seconds before a black silhouette stood up and walked out, rustling the foliage as he did so.

Before the silhouette got close to them, the streetlights illuminated his face and Mu Xiaoxiao saw who he was.

"Yu Zhe? You're following us again?"

Yu Zhe didn't speak, but lowered his head like a puppy who had done something wrong, looking a little pitiful.
