The morning sun was rising, and the morning light was gradually replacing the stars from the distant skyline. The dazzling light made Li Mo, who had stayed up all night, could only keep his eyes open in pain.
"How about it, how does it feel to do bad things with your sister?"
Xuan Ye poked her head out from behind Li Mo. She hugged Li Mo's waist tightly and asked softly in his ear. Under the cool morning breeze, her warm body temperature clearly spread throughout Li Mo. The whole body at the end.
But Li Mo was not moved at all at this moment, and his already fierce expression even became more gloomy.
"I feel terrible, and there is also a sense of guilt that arises spontaneously. I regret that I was impulsive in the first place. I will never do it again..."
"This is normal. Your current situation is called sage time. Once it accumulates for a while, you will start to miss this feeling again. Then my sister will still accompany you to do bad things."
Xuan Ye showed a mischievous smile and gently poked Li Mo's cheek with her index finger.
"But... who would have thought that doing something bad would be to steal the rescue team's flying dragon?"
The two of them were riding a flying dragon through the thin clouds.
Li Mo gently pulled the reins downwards, and the well-trained flying dragon immediately lowered its altitude slowly with understanding.
The moment he broke through the clouds, the mountain forest that he had walked through for a few days before the end was fully displayed in front of his eyes. It seemed that the endless forest sea connected to the sky full of morning light.
"Isn't this a bad thing? They usually don't lend it to us, right?" Xuan Ye asked, tilting her head.
"Although it is true..."
"Then how bad is the bad thing you want? Is it the kind that makes you so excited that you can't sleep all night? Or is it the kind that is so bad that it's hard to talk about it?" Xuan Ye said excitedly with a red face.
"Can you stop using that weird expression?"
"By the way, the most exciting moment in my life was when I signed the divorce agreement. At that time, I secretly hid a knife in my arms..."
"Stop talking!"
Li Mo felt that being with this woman was heart-stimulating in every sense of the word.
"But it's really exciting! We were able to take away such a big flying dragon without anyone noticing!"
Xuan Ye's topic turned back to "doing bad things" incomprehensibly.
"Let me tell you, your father is a gentleman no matter what, but you are actually a pervert who can get pleasure from stealing things."
"Humph, you didn't see how the leading boy handed my father's ashes to me like a prize. I didn't beat him up, but I just gave him a flying dragon and it was an advantage."
"Indeed, I also want to beat that brat, but what are you stealing? Where do you want to steal a flying dragon? Or is it just pure revenge?"
Although Li Mo didn't want to agree with the drunkard's words, he felt the same way this time.
The young forest ranger who led the team was very well-spoken and well-organized in his work. Unfortunately, he was too rigid and even a little heartless. Li Mo was once so angry that he had a stomach ache due to his "awarding" behavior.
"there."
Xuan Ye pointed to the hilltop not far away without hesitation.
She probably didn't know the structure of this mountain forest. It was obviously a place she wanted to go to temporarily.
Although he didn't know what she wanted to do, Li Mo, who was forced to board the pirate ship to take care of her mood, had no choice but to obey her request.
He shook the reins and signaled the flying dragon to descend. However, the top of this forest mountain range was too narrow and there was no space for the flying dragon to stand, so the flying dragon could only flap its wings and hover in the low air.
"Do you want to go down?" Li Mo asked.
Xuan Ye didn't answer, she just hesitated silently for a long time and then suddenly jumped down.
After landing safely, Xuan Ye staggered for two steps before Gululu fell to the ground and rolled twice. She was so frightened that Li Mo also jumped down quickly.
"Ah, it scared me to death. In fact, I'm a bit afraid of heights, so being on the ground makes me feel more at ease."
When Li Mo grabbed Xuan Ye, she was holding the old man's ashes tightly to her chest and giggling.
Li Mo also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her look: "I don't think a woman who can knock me two meters away with one punch is afraid of heights. Why are you pretending to be a lady?"
"ah?"
Xuan Ye grabbed Li Mo's collar and stood up, then lifted Li Mo off the ground with her bare hands. She glared at Li Mo with vicious eyes and said, "Don't think that you can talk nonsense just because there are three of you, you brat! "
It turns out the wine is not sober yet!
"That's right. So much liquor can knock down an elephant. How could it wake up so quickly?"
"I didn't drink!"
"fart!"
"What law says I was drunk?"
"Only the law can restrain you anymore?!"
If the reality hadn't been right in front of him, Li Mo would never have believed that such a long-winded and cheerful person could be the same person as the humble girl who was submissive and groveling at the shrine before, and even felt her own existence was a nuisance.
But Li Mo always felt that this was not the character of a drunkard who showed up through the power of drinking, but her true nature, which she had previously hidden under her submissiveness.
A biting morning breeze blew from the bare mountain top. The dew in the wind had already wetted Li Mo's hair. It would be very cold if his whole body got wet.
"Stop making trouble. What do you want to do here? If you don't make it clear, I won't accompany you."
Li Mo struggled to break away from Xuan Ye. He looked around but found nothing worth paying attention to.
At first, Li Mo thought that Xuan Ye just wanted to come to a place like this to calm down and calm down.
But Xuan Ye's mood was very stable from beginning to end, and she couldn't even see the slightest sadness. Li Mo could no longer guess her.
Perhaps, the old man whose heart was filled with hers actually had little weight in her eyes.
Li Mo could only hold his fist tightly.
"I just want to see what kind of place it is that can make an old man lose his home."
Xuan Ye slowly walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at the forest sea in the distance.
Li Mo was afraid that the drunkard would slip and fall, so he quickly stood beside her.
Only then did Li Mo notice that this was probably the highest cliff in the forest in the southern suburbs, and everything here was in full view.
"What do you think after watching it?" Li Mo asked.
"It's boring. It's full of trees at first glance. It's very boring."
"The old man probably thinks the same as you."
"Then he should go back to pay homage to his dead wife and visit his daughter whom he has not seen for a long time."
I knew from the old man before that there was a conflict between father and daughter that was difficult to distinguish between right and wrong.
On one side is the soldier father who longed for his daughter to be able to stand on her own feet and left cruelly, and on the other side is the daughter who resents her father for abandoning her and her mother twice. It is probably because of these contradictions that Xuan Ye is so dismissive of her father's death.
Maybe he could help her, Li Mo thought.
"It's not that he doesn't want to go back, but this place cannot live without a hero, a hero like him."
"Let me guess what he said at the end," then Xuan Ye said with a droopy face, imitating the old man's tone: "The duty of the forest guard is to risk his life to protect this forest!"
"Ha ha."
His guess was correct, Li Mo was amused by her appearance.
"My father is good at everything, but there is only one bad thing. He is a hero."
Xuan Ye hugged her father tightly and smiled.
Under the morning light, that smile seemed to be shining, a smile that suited her beautiful face very well.
It was also the first time that Li Mo saw her really laugh.
"I had a dream last night, and I seemed to remember some things from the past. Can you listen to me for a moment, Li Mo?"
"Can you finish speaking in ten seconds?"
"If you dare not listen, I will punish you by marrying me."
"Then I'd better listen and see."
