Mu Yun turned her head to look at him and saw that his handsome face was a little pale. She knew that she had said too much, but she did not want to get married. Her father had found a new partner less than a year after her mother left.
She didn"t believe that there would be anyone in this world who would be willing to treat her sincerely. Everyone had their faults, and although they might have fallen in love at the begi
ing, once a certain amount of time pa.s.sed and the love faded away, it would become the pain of two people.
"You don"t want to get married because of your parents?" Nangong Yao asked in a soft voice.
Mu Yun trembled slightly, but she did not reply and walked out of the tent.
At the top of the hill, where it had rained, the temperature plummeted and grew cool, and the men from the other tent came out.
"Look, there"s a rainbow there. I have to take it." Li Qing jumped up happily and quickly looked for a camera to take pictures.
Mu Yun stared blankly at the clean sky in the distance, her heart was a mess.
Nangong Yao sat inside the tent, still angry. He did not want to go out.
"Where is Elder Nan Gong?" Li Qing immediately asked with concern.
When Mu Yun turned around, she discovered that Nangong Yao was still in his tent.
She had no choice but to bend down and dig her way in. She saw the handsome man"s face turn away, and his eyes turn a little red.
"Can you stop being angry?" Mu Yun asked in a low voice.
"No way!" Nangong Yao calmly replied to her.
"We"re not kids anymore, are you going to keep getting angry at me?" Mu Yun was also somewhat helpless. She thought that Nangong Yao looked mature and calm, so he should have a rational att.i.tude towards matters of the heart. However, she never expected him to have this kind of personality when he became angry.
Nangong Yao raised his eyes and stared at her, "You still haven"t answered my question just now."
Mu Yun knew that she couldn"t avoid this question. She nodded. "You guessed right. It"s because of the emotional problems of the previous generation that I"m unwilling to get married."
"What are you afraid of?" Nangong Yao suddenly grabbed her hand and leaned forward, almost touching her lips. Mu Yun backed away in fright and said in a fl.u.s.tered tone, "I"m not afraid of anything."
When Nangong Yao saw the panic in her eyes, he released his hand. Perhaps he had been too anxious and made her feel insecure.
Mu Yun walked out of the tent quickly, her face red for no reason.
"Mu Yun, be honest. Did the two of you do something bad inside?" Li Qing suddenly walked over and asked in a gossipy tone.
Mu Yun was already embarra.s.sed to begin with, so the question from her made her even more embarra.s.sed.
"Don"t talk nonsense, we"re just hiding in the rain." Mu Yun didn"t dare admit it.
Nangong Yao walked out from the tent. His tall body gave the woman a sense of security. Li Qing"s eyes could not help but take a few more glances at him.
After the rain stopped, they continued to walk towards the top of the mountain.
After the heavy rain, the mountain roads were slippery and it was difficult to walk on them. Many times, they needed each other"s help.
"Mister Nangong, please help me." Li Qing purposely followed behind Nangong Yao. Seeing a rock blocking their way, she revealed the weakness of a woman as she shouted.
Nangong Yao turned around and reached out his hand to help her. Li Qing purposely lost her balance and leaned on him. Nangong Yao managed to hold her back in time.
Mu Yun was walking at the back when she suddenly saw Nangong Yao helping Li Qing. She felt a pang in her heart and felt a stifling sensation in her chest.
This feeling came so suddenly. When she sensed it, Nangong Yao stood in front of her and extended his hand out, "Let me help you. This rock is too big. Be careful not to fall."
Mu Yun looked at the big hand that he stretched out towards her, but unconsciously, she still put her hand down. The man clenched his fist tightly, carefully helping her pa.s.s by the rock.
Li Qing turned around and glanced at Nangong Yao. When he had helped her earlier, he had been a gentleman. But now, when he had helped Mu Yun, he had been filled with gentleness and affection.
Mu Yun"s mood was as if she was tied up by something. Before she came out to play, she wanted to be happy, whether it was her heart or body, she could walk and relax in the scenery. But today, what had happened to her?
Seeing Nangong Yao helping Li Qing, she actually felt uncomfortable.
Could he only allow this man to help him? What kind of logic was this?
"Pah!" While leading the way, Zhang Kui accidentally fell. His entire body was covered in mud, making him look very miserable.
"Everyone, walk slowly. This place is covered in moss. It"s too slippery." Zhang Qili reminded everyone in front of them.
Nangong Yao"s gaze never left Mu Yun"s body. Although she had hurt his heart, he realized that he could not care less. In his heart, he still paid attention to her.
Mu Yun could also feel that the way the man looked at her was still very hot. This kind of feeling made her very confused. Since she was young, she had only felt the warmth of family affection. She had never known that when love came, she would be so fl.u.s.tered and helpless.
Ah!" Li Qing suddenly cried out in alarm. Immediately after, her feet slipped and she directly pounced forward. The only one following her was Nangong Yao, and Nangong Yao had no choice but to continue supporting her.
Mu Yun saw Li Qing leaning on Nangong Yao"s shoulder with a soft and helpless look. Her heart trembled, what happened to Li Qing today? It was as if she was extremely pampered.
Furthermore, she seemed to be approaching Nangong Yao on purpose.
A woman"s sixth sense was very accurate. As Mu Yun came to realize, this friend of hers was paying a lot of attention to Nangong Yao.
Nangong Yao had a certain charm that attracted women to him. The elegance and elegance that came with him was not something a man could pretend to be. Although Li Qing despised him for being just a company employee, this man"s figure was irresistible to women.
"Li Qing, are you alright?" Mu Yun asked in concern when she saw that she was up to no good.
"Mu Yun, I don"t know what happened. Maybe I just cooled down a bit, but my body felt weak." Li Qing revealed a pitiful expression as she tried to get some sympathy.
"Is that so? I have some cold medicine in my backpack, I"ll get it for you. " Mu Yun cooperated with her and pa.s.sed the two medicines to her. "Since you"re out climbing the mountain, you should train your body a lot. If you ever come here to climb the mountain, bring your boyfriend over."
When Li Qing heard that Mu Yun wore her boyfriend dress, her expression changed instantly. She said in an indifferent tone, "What, you"re afraid that I"ll s.n.a.t.c.h Mister Nangong away?"
"It"s not that you"re afraid, it"s that you"re really afraid. You"ve always been very popular with men." Mu Yun answered with a smile.
"Heh, Mu Yun, then you better watch over him properly. If he"s so handsome, many people will remember him." Although Li Qing didn"t immediately fall out with him, her tone was already filled with bitterness.
Mu Yun frowned as she felt depressed. She raised her head and met Nangong Yao"s gaze. The man had a happy smile in his eyes.
Mu Yun"s face flushed red. She seemed to be fighting with Li Qing just now.
