Chapter 168 - 168 Do You Like It?

168 Do You Like It?

Ji Zhao subconsciously looked at Shen Yao, who was sitting beside her, but she was caught off guard and met his gaze.

The moment their eyes met, it was as if the surrounding world had fallen silent.

They could only see themselves in each other’s eyes.

“Try this?” Ji Zhao picked up her chopsticks with a smile. She picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and handed it to the bowl in front of him. “It’s sweet and sour. Try it and see if you like it.”

“Okay.” Shen Yao tasted it carefully and finally nodded.

Ji Zhao smiled sweetly at him, the expression on her face becoming more and more obedient.

The family finished their dinner early and returned to their rooms to rest.

Just as Ji Zhao was lying in bed in boredom (thinking about life), Shen Yao arrived.

“Ah Tao, look at this drunken hibiscus. her color has changed again.” After entering the house, Shen Yao went straight to the point and called out impatiently, “Come and take a look!”

The afterglow of the golden sunset fell on the Drunken Hibiscus. The originally elegant color gradually turned into a crimson color. A gentle breeze blew and blew away the two petals.

The scene was beautiful.

One couldn’t help but sigh at the uncanny workmanship of nature.

“So the Three Drunken Hibiscus would become so beautiful before it withered.” After seeing it with her own eyes, Ji Zhao was completely stunned.

“The most beautiful scenery is in front of me, and the person I love the most is beside me.”

Shen Yao’s confession caught her off guard. The moment Ji Zhao subconsciously turned around, Shen Yao had already taken a step forward.

Her lips brushed past Shen Yao’s cheek inadvertently.

They could feel each other trembling.

Shen Yao could not help but lean closer and closer. In the end, he kissed her lips without a word.

After an unknown period of time, Ji Zhao, who was in a daze from the kiss, accepted everything he showered on her. Shen Yao, who was standing in front of her, tapped the tip of her nose helplessly. “You’re finally willing to wake up!”

“Me? I fell asleep?” Ji Zhao’s eyes widened in surprise. “How is this possible? We just… We just…”

Seeing her pout, Shen Yao was amused.

“You fainted just now. Fortunately, you’re awake now. Mother said that perhaps you lost too much blood on your period and fainted.” Shen Yao gently held her hand and asked softly, “Why didn’t you tell me about this? Is it because you’re shy?”

At this moment, Ji Zhao only felt confused.

Shen Yao caressed her face with heartache. “It’s my fault for not taking good care of you. That’s why you’re so tired.”

“I’m not tired. I just want to rest for a while.” Ji Zhao looked at him seriously and explained softly, “I didn’t expect to suddenly faint. Did I scare you?”

“I’m not frightened. I’m just a little worried.” Shen Yao told the truth. “As for you, the physician specially instructed you to lie in bed and rest more. Don’t come down for the next few days.”

“But I feel much better.” Ji Zhao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Besides, other than repairing the Earth Temple, the restaurant’s shop is about to officially open.”

“Didn’t Big Brother already say that he would help think of a way?” Shen Yao her arm.

“But…”

“No buts.” Shen Yao’s face was expressionless as he said firmly, “Have you forgotten what you promised me previously?”

“…What?”

“Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival.”

“I know.” The confusion in Ji Zhao’s eyes deepened.

“Shall we go for a walk now?”

Before she could answer, Shen Yao had already held her hand and left the Shen family’s courtyard.

The sun was setting in the west, and the entire courtyard of the Shen family was enveloped in a faint orange light. It looked very warm.

“Shen Yao, where are we going?” Ji Zhao, whose hand was held tightly by him, asked curiously. Although the light in the night was a little dim, he still successfully brought her to a place.

Ji Zhao instinctively circled the area and realized that there was no one else around.

“Ah Tao, don’t be afraid!” Shen Yao comforted her with a gentle smile. Then, he caught her off guard and hugged her waist, carrying her on his shoulder.

“Impressive.” Ji Zhao couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Ah Tao, what do you see through the forest?”

“A little light?”

Ji Zhao looked around curiously. In the end, she was extremely curious. “Where exactly is this?”

“This is the westernmost part of the village. We are on a mountain. I heard from the elders in the village that this small mountain is called Nameless Mountain. It has been standing in the wind and rain for more than 300 years.” Shen Yao could not help but sigh when he saw the scenery in the distance.

“Why did you bring me here?”

“Because…” Shen Yao smiled and deliberately kept her in suspense.

The curiosity in Ah Tao’s eyes deepened.

“Close your eyes.” Shen Yao suddenly approached her and kissed her cheek gently. Then, he turned around and left again.

Ji Zhao, who had stayed behind, closed her eyes nervously.

“Done.”

After removing the black cloth from her eyes, Ji Zhao saw the scene in front of her clearly.

Countless cute fireflies glowing with a faint green light formed a beautiful painting. It was dreamy and beautiful.

“Do you like it?” Shen Yao had already circled behind her and hugged her from behind. “I specially prepared it for you.”

“I like it.” Ji Zhao nodded eagerly. It was too beautiful.

“Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I promised you before that I would bring you to the lantern festival. Unfortunately, there have been too many things going on recently. I really can’t fulfill my promise on time…” Shen Yao explained gently, “After thinking about it, I decided to create the most special lantern festival for you, the Firefly Lantern Festival. ”

“It’s beautiful,” Ji Zhao praised generously. “I think this is the most special and unique lantern festival in the world.”

Just as Ji Zhao was about to sit on the ground, Shen Yao stopped her.

“What… what’s wrong?” Ji Zhao swallowed nervously.

“The night is cold and the wind on the mountain is strong. Shall we go back quickly?” Shen Yao said hurriedly.

After returning to the Shen family’s courtyard, Shen Yao could not wait to return to his room. He ground ink and laid out paper, finally recording the beautiful scene that had just happened.

Ah Tao, who was dressed in white, stood under the tree with a lithe figure. Countless fireflies surrounded her. She could not bear to move at all. After all, such a beautiful scene should not be missed!

At that moment, in Hongxing Restaurant.

Qin Minghong asked around and found out the nickname of the Miracle Doctor.

Seizing this opportunity, he rushed to Shanghe Village.

When the carriage stopped at the village entrance, it was already late at night.

It was only at this moment that Qin Minghong realized that he seemed to care more about Miss Ji than he had imagined.
