After some moments…
Shi Yan's eyes looked bruised and swollen from crying for too long.
Shi Yan, who had just stopped crying, realized that it was Li Shuxian who calmed her down. She was just silent for a moment. But in her mind, she was thinking all kinds of things. 'Argh...I feel ashamed for crying in front of the guy that I've been angry with all this time. He must remember that I am a weak girl and cry easily...'
*Blush*
Shi Yan's face turned red from holding back embarrassment when she thought about it. She covered her face with both hands.
Li Shuxian, who looked at Shi Yan, realized that and asked.
"Oh? Why are you covering your face? Do you want to cry again? Cry all you want if that's what you feel like."
Shi Yan answered with her hands still covering her face.
"No! I'm covered my face not because I wanted to cry again!"
Li Shuxian raised his eyebrows.
"Hmm? If not that one, then why?"
'*&%&$%*'
Shi Yan's heart felt angry with Li Shuxian, who was insensitive to the condition of her.
"Because I'm embarrassed!" Shi Yan shouted as she turned her red face to the other side.
Li Shuxian, who was stunned by those words, then realized that Shi Yan's cheeks were red and just laughed out loud. "Pfftt! Hahahaha!!"
He continued his words. "Oh, I didn't expect that! You really look as cute as a ghost."
Mischievously, Li Shuxian just smiled as he teased Shi Yan and patted her head slowly.
*Pat, pat *
"Dang it!" Shi Yan accidentally scolded Li Shuxian, with her face getting redder.
Li Shuxian chuckled when seeing that.
"You know what, it's fun teasing you every time."
He continued his talk not long after that. "Because I think I fell for you." Li Shuxian smiled mischievously and said this while grinning, showing his white teeth.
'Argh!!! This man!'
Shi Yan, who heard that, was even more embarrassed. She felt that her heartbeat was getting fast! Her shame of embarrassment felt so thick that she felt like it was as big as the mountain in front of her!
"You! Li Shuxian!" Shi Yan shouted his name as he turned towards her.
"Yes, it's me. Why?" Li Shuxian asked back as he raised his eyebrows.
"Ah! Never mind!" Shi Yan was desperate to fight with the annoying guy next to her. She was just about to throw the title 'annoying guy' away from Li Shuxian, but seeing Li Shuxian tease her again, it felt unnecessary to throw it away!
Shi Yan then stared at the mountain in front of them, ignoring Li Shuxian's tease, who sat beside her.
Li Shuxian just kept laughing seeing Shi Yan until he fell silent.
"....."
He watched as Shi Yan looked at the mountain in front of him thoughtfully. Then, he looked away to see the mountain.
"The mountain looks beautiful, doesn't it?" Li Shuxian asked Shi Yan slowly.
Shi Yan, who was no longer embarrassed and was looking at the mountain because of its beauty, nodded.
"Yes, very beautiful. I also hope to live in a house on a mountain, surrounded by rivers and birds flying around. It must be very comfortable!" Shi Yan let out her excitement as she said, like a child. Her face looks happy, and her eyes shine from talking about things she likes.
Li Shuxian, who looked at her behavior, just smiled at Shi Yan's face. "Yes, I think it must be very comfortable."
Perhaps because Shi Yan expressed her sadness that had been hidden all this time, she felt open and happy to talk to Li Shuxian. She talked about various things about the mountain and the beauty of the environment with him.
------------
After she talked a lot with Li Shuxian, Shi Yan slowly opened her mouth while glancing at his face.
"Li Shuxian, I think you are very similar to the little boy I once knew..."
Li Shuxian immediately looked at Shi Yan and raised his eyebrows. "Yeah? Just like the boy you told me about before this?"
Shi Yan nodded. "That is correct."
"Do you know that little boy's name?" Li Shuxian asked.
Shi Yan shook her head left and right while frowning. "No, I don't know. All I remember is his nickname. I only remembered that nickname not long ago… His nickname is Cookie."
Li Shuxian raised his eyebrows. "Oh, I see. But why do you say I'm just like that little boy?"
Shi Yan nodded slowly. "Yes, that's right. Well…I said that you looked like him because your attitude, the way you talk, and your behavior are the same. Well, except for that annoying behavior of yours." Shi Yan said honestly to him.
Li Shuxian smiled sweetly at Shi Yan. He chuckled and turned his face down while covering his smiling lips with his hand.
*Ha! *
After that, he stared at Shi Yan as he raised his eyebrows.
"What if I say that I'm that little boy?"
"What??!!!" Shi Yan was shocked, and her mouth gape wide open.
She was stunned to hear those words that came from Li Shuxian.
Li Shuxian is…that little boy??
