Every world is full of ghosts and monsters begging for hugs

He Mian brought Bai Yao back to the cabin. In this small place, it seemed as if they could be isolated from all the people and things in the world, except for them.

Bai Yao's clothes were still wet, but He Mian once again took out her clothes and replaced them for her.

It seemed that since they met, every time Bai Yao needed something, He Mian would always appear in time and provide her with everything she needed.

Bai Yao sat on the sofa. He Mian took a dry towel, untied her braids, and wiped her wet long hair.

Bai Yao hugged his waist, her beautiful eyes sparkling with tears. Her moist eyes curved up and she smiled and said to him: "He Mian, I've only been apart from you for a while, but I feel like I've been apart from you for a long time. I miss you so much."

He Mian raised the corner of his lips, lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips, "I miss you too."

"No!" She suddenly cried out, exaggerating: "I can't imagine being separated from you! Not even for a single day!"

What's more, she goes to college and rarely comes back once a month!

He Mian picked her up and sat on the sofa. He wiped her hair gently with his hands, "Yaoyao, you can call me if you miss me."

These were the words Bai Yao had told him not long ago, before she thought she was about to leave the manor.

Bai Yao lazily leaned in his arms, poking his chest with her fingers playfully, stroking down along the strong lines of his body through the fabric of his T-shirt, "He Mian, come with me to the city, we can live together."

He Mian's face froze slightly, and his body became rigid.

Bai Yao raised her head and looked at him, her eyes full of smiles, clean, pure, bright and dazzling, "I want to be with you every day, what about you?"

He Mian always gave people a cold impression. He was as hard as a rock, and even his emotional changes became more obvious after he was with Bai Yao. But now, his eyelashes trembled, his eyes were dim, and he unexpectedly revealed a bit of fragility.

"Yaoyao..." He said with difficulty: "I can't go to the city with you yet, I...I still have things to do, you go to the city obediently, I will wait for you to come back to see me when you are on vacation."

Bai Yao stared at him for a long time, so long that he couldn't stand it anymore. When he turned his head away to avoid her gaze, he lowered his eyebrows as if to escape.

But the next second, Bai Yao held his face back forcefully, "He Mian, don't you like me anymore?"

"I like it!" He Mian's tone was a little anxious. What he feared most was that Bai Yao would doubt his feelings. How could he not like her?

Bai Yao was the first person in his life that he wanted to hold on to, and luckily, she had the same feelings towards him.

This was the first time in He Mian’s eighteen-year-old life that he felt that God was not being harsh on him.

Bai Yao deliberately rubbed his face, turning his anxious expression into something funny and cute. She laughed out loud, "Of course I know you like me. I was just joking. Don't be nervous."

He Mian said depressedly: "This joke is not funny."

"I'm sorry, He Mian, I won't say such things again." Bai Yao hugged him and patted his back gently. Her tone was very gentle, as if she was coaxing a child. "I know that He Mian loves Yaoyao the most in the world."

He Mian had a strong sense of self-esteem, but he was extremely spineless at this moment. Bai Yao just said this, and his mood improved again. He rubbed her neck, lifted her chin, and kissed her slowly.

The phone in Bai Yao's pocket had been vibrating for a long time.

She said: "I'm a little hungry and want to eat something."

He Mian said: "I'll go get it, you wait here for me."

Bai Yao nodded, and He Mian left the cabin.

At this time, Bai Yaoye answered the phone.

Lan Ge's anxious voice came from the other side, "Bai Yao! Where are you?"

"I'm at the manor."

Lan Ge was stunned. "Why did you go back again? Is it for that bag? Aunt Fang has been looking for a long time, but she couldn't find the purple bag you mentioned."

"It's okay, it's not important." Bai Yao leaned on the sofa and looked at the grape trellis outside the window.

The bunch of grapes on the shelf has grown a lot bigger, and the fruit bags have been swollen. The fruits should be ripe soon.

Bai Yao said to the person on the phone: "There is one thing that I cannot do by myself, so I would like to ask you to do me a favor. Maybe you will find it a little scary, but don't be afraid."

Blue Pigeon was puzzled: "What?"

When He Mian came back, Bai Yao was still curled up on the sofa with a bored look on his face. He only got two loaves of bread and a box of yogurt. Bai Yao felt happy looking at these simple little things.

Bai Yao took a bite of bread and took the yogurt with a straw inserted. "Blue Pigeon is urging me. I have to go."

He Mian pursed his lips slightly, "Yeah."

He knew that Bai Yao would eventually leave. Minghu Town was too small, and she should go to a bigger place.

Bai Yao asked him, "Will you send me off?"

He Mian nodded, "Yes."

Bai Yao smiled, finished her meal slowly, pulled him up, and asked him to take her to Ming Lake, where Lan Ge was waiting for her.

Bai Yao wanted to leave before, but she hugged him for a long time and didn't want to be separated from him. This time on the way to Minghu, she walked briskly and happily, and didn't seem reluctant to leave at all.

He Mian felt unhappy, but because Bai Yao kept holding his hand, he suppressed the words lingering in his heart: "Don't you like me that much anymore?"

A car was parked on the road ahead. Lan Ge was holding on to the car and catching his breath. No one knew what kind of physical activity he had done or what he had experienced. He raised his head and looked at He Mian beside Bai Yao. He looked confused and doubtful. He swallowed and was vaguely a little panicked and scared.

He Mian and Lan Ge were just nodding acquaintances, they were not familiar with each other. He Mian once naively regarded Lan Ge as an imaginary rival in love, which was really unfair to Lan Ge. Lan Ge had no romantic feelings for Bai Yao.

Bai Yao let go of He Mian's hand and walked forward a few steps. She turned around and smiled brightly at He Mian, "He Mian, come with me."

He Mian stayed where he was, his face pale.

Bai Yao stretched out her hand in his direction, "He Mian, come here."

He Mian didn't dare to take a step forward.

It's not that I can't, but I don't dare.

The boundary marker of Minghu Town is right between her and him. Bai Yao can easily step out of this range, but he cannot walk out of this range.

What he feared most was that Bai Yao would notice that something was wrong. He had been trying very hard to pretend to be an ordinary and normal person. In Bai Yao's eyes, he never wanted to be an outlier.
