"Also, you gave me such expensive cosmetics, it's nothing for me to treat you to a meal. I hope you'll accept."
Since the young girl said so, Shen Lan felt obliged to agree, "Alright, alright."
"Since you've said so, then I'll join you for a meal when I return to the city."
Xia Mo's tone sounded very happy, "Great, so we've decided. But when will you return?"
Shen Lan played with the kite in her hand, thought for a few moments, and shook her head, "I don't know."
"I quite like staying in the countryside. I suspect I'll be here for several months."
"Several months!?" Xia Mo was shocked upon hearing this, almost wanting to cry, "Really? Please don't trick me..."
"Why are you going away for such a long time? I'm really going to miss you."
"Without you, wouldn't I be all alone?"
Little girl, Shen Lan didn't quite know what to say. She felt this young lady was too clingy. She forced a bitter smile and said, "I asked you to visit the countryside, but you wouldn't."
