Almost at the moment Xuanyuan Che finished speaking, Mei Susu ran away and only a small shadow was left.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast she is, she is not as fast as Xuanyuan Che.

The plum blossom forest is very large, and Mei Susu is petite, so she can move through it very smoothly. She thought Xuanyuan Che would never be able to catch her, but behind the next dense red plum tree, Mei Susu bumped into his arms.

Xuanyuan Che grabbed her in his big hands and held her in his arms, tickling her nipples in a naughty way.

Mei Susu's waist and abdomen were particularly ticklish, and she didn't know how Xuanyuan Che discovered this. But when he tickled her with his slender fingers, she twisted herself into a knot in his arms.

"Hahahaha, Cheche, stop scratching, it's itchy~ so itchy~"

But begging for mercy was of no use, Xuanyuan Che's hands were still messing around her waist and abdomen.

Her little face was pinched, and Xuanyuan Che used some force this time, causing Mei Susu to feel pain.

"I was really wrong, Cheche~"

Mei Susu laughed and admitted defeat again.

"I don't think Su Su knows."

Xuanyuan Che tickled Mei Susu's waist and abdomen with his knuckles and had no intention of letting her go.

This made Mei Susu laugh so hard that tears came out.

"I was really wrong, Cheche. I was really wrong. I'm giving you a gift. Can you forgive me?"

Mei Susu smiled and took out something from her sleeve, holding it high. The red tassel on the object hung from her hand and fell into Xuanyuan Che's eyes.

Xuanyuan Che stopped his chaotic hands and looked at the golden and red love knot in front of him, his shoulders trembling slightly.

The heart-shaped knot is woven with a rope embroidered with gold thread. If you look closely, you can see that the embroidery is crooked, the stitches are rough, and not delicate.

Looking at the weaving technique of the heart knot, some parts are thick and some parts are thin, and it is obvious that the weaver is very clumsy.

But the golden and red tassels underneath are smooth and flowing, without a single wrinkle, which shows that the person who made it was extremely attentive.

Mei Susu's bright eyes popped out from behind the knot of love, her pupils shining brightly, three times more dazzling than the knot in front of her.

"Sometimes I wonder if Cheche has the ability to see through everything and know what's hidden on people. Nothing can escape Cheche's eyes."

Xuanyuan Che froze, then slowly reached out and took the knot, holding it in his palm and rubbing it carefully, feeling the lines on it, his heart seemed to be filled with something: "Su Su made it herself?"

Mei Susu nodded. She had pricked her fingers many times before she was able to make it.

"When? How come I don't know?"

In Xuanyuan Che's opinion, Mei Susu spends almost all of her time with him. This heart-knot needs to be embroidered and weaved, and it will take a while to finish. How can she have the time to do it?

Mei Susu smiled as brightly as a flower, brighter than the sun: "Of course I did it secretly while Cheche was in court."

A blush appeared on her face: "Although I didn't do it very well, it's a thoughtful gesture. If you dare to laugh at me, I will beat you!"

Mei Susu raised her fist, looking as fierce as a kitten.

Xuanyuan Che clenched the knot and her fist into his palm, and once again pulled her into his arms. He opened Mei Susu's small hand and touched her smooth fingertips: "How many times did you prick your fingers?"

Su Su had been raised by him since she was a child. Although he intended to send her to school after she turned into a human, he had never put it into action. Embroidery is difficult in itself, and many girls who were just starting out would prick their fingers with needle holes just to embroider a flower.

He couldn't imagine how Su Su must have felt in pain when her finger was pricked by the needle while she was embroidering the love knot for him. He was probably also afraid that golden beans would fall out.

Mei Susu shook her head, knowing that telling the truth would make him worried, so she said, "I'm so smart, I finished the embroidery in just one or two attempts, and even Yueya praised me."

Yueya, who was completely unaware of the situation, was shivering with cold outside Merlin: Why hasn’t the young master come out yet?

"I thought Su Su would just pick a random object as a gift."

Xuanyuan Che held Mei Susu's forehead and placed his thin lips on her forehead. Although he tried his best to conceal it, he still couldn't hide the slight joy in his tone.

"Usually, it is Cheche who gives me gifts. I have never given Cheche anything. Although the Emperor and the Empress Dowager have given me many good things, Cheche has no shortage of them. Although my knot is not the best, Cheche cannot despise it. This..."

“I like it very much.”

Mei Susu's words were blocked in her throat by Xuanyuan Che's words.

She looked at Xuanyuan Che, who held her little face in his hands as if it were a treasure, and repeated, "This gift from Susu is the best gift I have received in all these years. I like it very much."

Mei Susu looked at the handsome face in front of her, pink hearts appeared in her eyes, and she pouted her lips: "Give me a kiss."

Looking at those lustrous red lips, Xuanyuan Che never thought that after living for so many years, he would be defeated by a little girl. He loved and was so happy for her that the pain reached his bones, but it still wasn't enough.

He could hardly control his emotions, and just when he was about to fulfill the wish of the person in his arms and kiss her on the lips, he never expected that a brocade box would appear out of nowhere, blocking his lips and those of the little girl.

Xuanyuan Che's thin lips kissed the brocade box without any warning.

Mei Susu laughed mischievously, and then she poked out her little face with a sly smile and shook the brocade box: "Oh, I suddenly forgot about this. Cheche will not blame me for interrupting your passionate kiss, right?"

But before she could finish her words, Xuanyuan Che grabbed her jaw and kissed her fiercely. When their lips and teeth met, Xuanyuan Che bit Mei Susu's little tongue for the first time, causing Mei Susu to retract her tongue into her mouth in pain, and never wanted to take it out again.

After Xuanyuan Che moved his lips away, Mei Susu covered her mouth and stared at him with tearful eyes, her look obviously accusing him of what he had done.

Xuanyuan Che licked his thin lips and smiled wickedly.

Mei Susu's ears turned red and she looked away. What a vixen, so alluring. If she looked at him for one more moment, she would be afraid that she would be seduced by him.

"I hope Susu won't blame me for making up for this affectionate kiss."

Mei Susu sighed slightly in her heart, she was still too young compared to this vixen.

"What's in this brocade box, Susu?"

Getting back to the topic, Xuanyuan Che set his eyes on the brocade box in Mei Susu's hand.

Mei Susu picked up the brocade box and opened it in front of Xuanyuan Che.

Inside the brocade box, there lay a pair of jade rings, one black and one white. They were much thinner than a ring, with the black one engraved with auspicious clouds and the white one with a cat stepping on auspicious clouds. They were extremely delicate and ingenious.

Xuanyuan Che suddenly remembered what Mei Susu once said. She said that in the demon world, when getting married, what is handed over to each other is not a jade pendant but a ring.

They don't have this custom here. Women mostly wear bracelets and men wear rings.

Mei Susu took out the slightly thicker jade ring, then pulled up Xuanyuan Che's right hand and put the ring on his right middle finger.

Then he raised the brocade box and blinked his smart eyes.

Xuanyuan Che picked up the white ring with a sense of purpose, then imitated Mei Susu's actions, pulled up her right hand, and put the ring on her middle finger.

Mei Susu looked at the big hand holding hers, the black and white rings matched perfectly.

She smiled happily and then looked up.

"Happy New Year, Cheche."

"Happy New Year, Susu."
