After the villagers had walked far away, Qian Sisi realized that they might have been mistaken for corn thieves by the villagers.
She stopped and looked at Bai Cheng'an, only to find that Bai Cheng'an was also looking down at her. Their eyes met, and they couldn't help bursting into laughter, unable to run any further!
The sun had already set behind the treetops, and Bai Cheng'an was walking slowly through the woods with Qian Sisi, with unnamed birds jumping on the branches above their heads. In the distance, someone's goat was tied to a tree trunk, looking utterly calm as it chewed on grass and watched them pass by.
Qian Sisi looked down at Bai Cheng'an's large hand holding hers and suddenly felt an inexplicable surge of sweetness in her heart.
Clutching the large ear of corn in her arms, she imagined the two of them by the river, clumsily roasting corn, and then sharing an ear of roasted corn. She couldn't help but laugh at the thought!
