The sky was already completely dark, and a bonfire was lit at the foot of the mountain. The locals were singing and dancing, and Shui Junjing brought the three of them to join the crowd. Naturally, Qiang Qiang and Weiwei were in the same group, and she was in the same group as Shui Junxian.

Both of her hands were held by Shui Jun, who was constantly changing postures. Everything in the mountain was beautiful with a sense of simplicity. She felt that it wouldn't be a bad thing to live here in seclusion if she had the chance.

She was playing crazily. That night, she was as happy as a little bird. It was as if she had flown into the sky and felt the world's most beautiful beauty.

However, no matter how beautiful the scenery was, the bonfire would eventually be extinguished. When the children rushed towards their small tents with excitement still lingering in their hearts, she was unable to smile at all.

Four tents were placed side by side. The left one was hers, the right one was his, and the two small tents in the middle belonged to the children. Weiwei and Qiang had already snuggled into their tents and comfortably laid down, but the curtains were wide open and they were panting heavily as they asked Weiwei, "Weiwei, is it fun?"

The world of children only consisted of novelty and fun, but the world of adults was filled with trials and hardships. She turned her head to look at the Land Cruiser that was not far away from Shui JunJue. When he and Weiwei fell asleep, it would be time for her and the strong guy to leave.

"It's fun. Qiang Qiang, do you have a blanket?" Weiwei crossed her legs and looked very satisfied.

"Yes, you see, here." Qiang Qiang already got up. His small body nimbly went in front of Weiwei's tent and showed the blanket to Weiwei.

"Mm, I have one too. Daddy is so nice, I've prepared it for you, but I've never slept in the tent. Do you think a tiger will appear if we fall asleep?"

"Even if there is, I'm not afraid. Your father is here."

"But I'm afraid. Even if Daddy is here, I'm afraid too." Weiwei's little body trembled as she pointed towards the mountain outside, "It's so dark there."

Forcefully covering his mouth as he laughed, "Coward."

"You're the coward. I'm not afraid of the dark. I'm only afraid of the tiger. The tiger will eat the man."

"Strong, don't say Weiwei!" She couldn't bear to part with it. She only wanted to leave Weiwei a beautiful night.

"Fine." He wrinkled his nose and went back to his tent. Seeing Weiwei's scared look, Mo Xiao also smiled. "How about sleeping with auntie, okay?" He really wanted to hug Weiwei and sleep, even if it was just for a night.

"No, I have to let her train tonight. Weiwei, Daddy and Auntie will protect you and Qiangqiang from both sides. You can sleep at ease. If you're still scared tomorrow, then I'll let you sleep with Auntie."

Shui Junzhi was really a bastard. Tomorrow night at this time, she had already left Weiwei. "Shuishui, let Weiwei sleep with me."

"No, we can't let the child go like this. I said tomorrow night, go to sleep. Tomorrow, Father will take you and Qiang to the cable car. When the time comes, we will still be able to see the waterfall."

"Really?" As soon as she heard what he said, Weiwei's eyes lit up with anticipation.

"Really."

"Alright then, I'll sleep by myself. I'm a big kid now, if I'm strong enough to sleep by myself, I can also sleep by myself."

Tonight, it was definitely impossible for Mo Xiao to sleep with her. He snuggled into his own tent and lay down comfortably. Mo Xiao also started to let his imagination run wild. Other than sitting in the car all day, she didn't cook for him. She only ate barbecue at night. But now, she was tired again.

But she couldn't sleep. She promised Li Ran.

He gently closed his eyes, allowing himself to remain awake the entire time.

It was so quiet that the children must have fallen asleep.

Listening to the birds and insects chirping in the mountain night, the night was very quiet.

After an unknown period of time, he heard a rustling sound. It was the sound of shoes stepping on grass. Just as Mo Xiao was about to get up, the footsteps stopped in front of her tent. It must be him, right?

What was he going to do at this late hour?

Holding her breath, she quietly looked at the curtain of her tent. The curtain was pushed aside, so he must have thought she was asleep.

Looking at the man's figure that was already more than halfway in, she started to panic.

Just when she was guessing what the Shui Jun Jue wanted to do, the man's body suddenly stopped. Mo Xiao also heard the soft sound of his phone ringing. Shui Jun Jue picked up his phone and slowly retreated out of her tent, as if he was afraid to wake her up.

The curtains closed, and outside the tent, the two of them seemed to be from two different worlds. She heard his extremely low male voice, "An Feng, what is it?"

She really didn't want to hear it, but when she heard it, she couldn't help but want to know if An Feng had called Shui Junxian because of Yuan Ran. Yes, Li Ran had said that Yuan Runqing was really going to die this time.

She was going to leave anyway.

After five years, after many days and nights, she had thought of countless times seeking revenge on Yuan Wenqing. But now, just based on the relationship between Li Ling'er and Yuan Wenqing, she knew that Li Ran would definitely not allow her to harm Yuan Run Qing.

The same was true for the Waterlord's Awareness.

"Alright, let's leave it at this for now. I'll take care of it." In a trance, a male voice entered her ears, followed by the sound of footsteps heading towards her tent.

Waterlord felt as though he had returned.

Mo Xiao's heart seemed to jump into his throat.

The air in the mountain was so nice, so fresh that it felt like dripping water. He quietly lied on the blanket, and when he came in, his face stopped in front of her face. The heavy smell of a man hit her in the face, making her heart race even more.

"Xiaoxiao, wake up." The man's voice was low in her ear. He was waking her up.

In truth, she was already awake a long time ago, and pretending to be asleep didn't feel good at all. Borrowing his voice, she stretched her waist, then slowly opened her eyes, looking at him in the darkness with a hazy expression, "Shuishui, what are you doing?"

"Take you to a good place." As she spoke, his wet lips were kissed, and she felt her body lighten. She was lifted up by him and walked out of her tent. It was pitch black, and nothing could be seen clearly. She was confused. "Water, where are we going?"

"Take you to the hot spring. You always like to sleep. When you get back, you have to check the reason."

"And the children?" She tilted her head to look at the two quiet tents. Qiang Qiang and Weiwei were both asleep.

Don't worry, I've asked the locals to keep watch. When we get back, they'll leave, and there's a Lovers' Soup in the mountain that can only be used by two people. It's really inconvenient for me to bring them along, but tomorrow, I'll make it up to the children and also take them to soak in hot springs.

"Hey, I don't want to go. I'm tired." She was really sleepy.

"I'll make it up to you when I go back in the future. Don't move, I'll carry you there."

He carried her as if she were walking on flat land as they walked through the mountains. He must have already figured out the route, and very soon, Mo Xiao heard the sound of water and leaned against him. When the fog blew against her face, she felt like she was in a dream.

She heard the powerful heartbeat of Shui Junxian as he held her in his arms.

It was a small tent next to a hot spring. She was carried inside and placed on his lap. "Xiaoxiao, does it look like a dream?"

Suddenly, Mo Xiao remembered something. When he went to her room that night a few years ago, she was in the shower, and as he walked into the misty bathroom, their eyes met. She looked into his eyes which were shrouded in mist and softly said, "It really is like a dream, you are here."

She still remembered that night in the bathtub, he had asked her to go to the bathroom again and again. That night, before he left, she lied on his arm and said to him, "Jun, I heard that the hot spring soup at Mount Xiang is very good. Have you been there yet?"

A long, long time ago, he had asked a question. If it weren't for the fact that he was holding her in his arms until they reached the hot spring in the middle of the evening, she really wouldn't have been able to remember.

His hand lightly wrapped around his neck. "Water …" She gently looked at the face of the man in the dark. It seemed like it wasn't real at all.

She softly called out, causing his kiss to fall on her lips in an instant. He sucked her lips, but his hand quickly tore at her clothes, piece by piece, as he lightly landed on the ground. After that, he carried her into the Lovers Soup outside the tent.

The water was really good. It was neither cold nor hot, and it was very comfortable and warm. She was still being embraced by him, and her heart was thumping, "Water, do you love me?" She foolishly asked the silly question that all women liked to ask, hoping that he would give her a special answer.

He was sitting on his lap with her in his arms, his body wrapped in warm water, his head on the crook of his arm. She looked into his eyes and heard him say, "I like you."

The answer he always gave her was love, not love.

He really wanted to ask if the person he loved was Mo Xiaoyi.

However, after thinking about it for so many times, she didn't ask. Look at her, was she still going to be jealous of him?

The two of them only had this one night left. Thinking back to the call that he had just picked up, she was being nudged by Li Ran on one side, and he was being nudged by An Feng on the other.

She closed her eyes and raised her head to kiss the man's lips. "Water, please."

If she loves him, then he might as well make a moth. Perhaps, she could give him a fiery aftertaste.

That night, he had allowed her to fall in love with him, and not be able to extricate herself from it.
