Then, the little girl successfully kissed the sleeping man. She heaved a sigh of relief. She continued to hold the bell on her ankle and went back to copy the commandments scroll.

She kissed him in the morning and was punished to copy the commandment scroll ten times again.

She didn’t finish copying and had to continue in the afternoon.

But she could kiss him a little longer every afternoon.

He wouldn’t find out that she had kissed him secretly if he was asleep.

This way, she wouldn’t be punished by copying the commandment.

The little girl held the bell on her ankle happily and walked away quietly.

The breeze blew, and the colorful petals fell.

Under the quiet and peaceful peach blossom forest, the man slowly opened his eyes.

His gentle and beautiful purple eyes were so clean that there was no impurity.

He didn’t move.

He just quietly watched the little girl in the distance bitterly copying the commandment scroll, and paused for a moment.

The corners of his lips curved up slightly.

The peerlessly beautiful young master slowly raised his hand and gently touched the corner of his lips with his gentle and beautiful fingertips,

“Stupid Ah Si.”

He seemed to be murmuring. In his gentle voice, there was a faint smile.

“Why are you so stupid?”

His words sounded like a sigh and helplessness. They were like a gentle breeze, drifting in the air and disappearing in a flash.

The petals that fell all over the ground were witness to their intimacy.

…

Yun Si instantly opened her eyes.

Her clear eyes were filled with shock.

“Morning, Sisi.”

Taosheng was basking in the warm sunlight as she greeted Yun Si in a childish voice.

Yun Si slightly clenched her fists and did not say a word.

After a while, she lifted the blanket and got out of bed.

“Taosheng, does Jiuge like me?” Yun Si’s voice trembled.

She… She dreamed.

She had kissed him secretly, but he had always known.

He even said she was stupid because she didn’t understand his feelings.

Yun Si was almost incoherent.

“It’s … It was true, and … Or is it just my imagination?”

Taosheng made a sound of surprise and moved its petals. It was a little hesitant.

“Sisi, I don’t know what Master Jiuge is thinking. But I think he likes you.”

After all, no matter how good-tempered Jiuge was, he didn’t have to tolerate someone he didn’t like for so long, right?

Moreover, Master Jiuge was good to her.

He picked the peaches used to make the peach blossom crisps every day in the morning.

He carefully selected each piece and placed them in the flower basket.

Yun Si had woken up late, so she didn’t know.

But Taosheng lived in the peach forest.

It watched Jiuge pick flowers in the forest and make peach blossom crisps every day.

When Yun Si’s clothes were torn, he would take a needle and thread to fix her clothes.

A grown man, with his head lowered, patiently sewed her clothes. He even thoughtfully folded them and placed them by her bed.

He taught her how to read and write gently, and supervised her as she read.

Even a fool could tell Jiuge had fallen for Yun Si.

Tao Sheng shook its flower branch and sighed.

It was a pity.

Sisi had never noticed these details.

She had also never realized Master Jiuge’s overwhelming gentleness towards her.

This kind of silent feeling in the spring rain was…

It made Taosheng jealous.

In comparison, the person it had met before was frustrating.

“Sisi, why don’t you try to believe it? Believe that Master Jiuge likes you. Maybe something unexpected will happen?”

Taosheng’s soft petals touched Yun Si’s hand, and its tone was probing.
