How can someone travel through time and space and become a beggar?

Xia Chu pounced on Zhao Huazhang's back, but then she got scared again. She was afraid that if Zhao Huazhang knocked her down, she would fall too.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Huazhang held her steady, swaying only slightly. With her on his back, he suddenly realized how intimate this position truly was. Her soft body rested on his back, her hair sliding from his shoulders to his neck, cool and silky, with the delicate fragrance of osmanthus wafting through.

Zhao Huazhang clenched his hands. Should he grab her thighs? The thought made him blush from neck to ears, and he still didn't dare to reach out.

Xia Chu held onto his shoulders and noticed that Zhao Huazhang's shoulders were very broad. She secretly compared them and found that four fingers made up a palm, which was three palms wide. Wow! His back was also much wider than hers! If they were to hug, would he be able to wrap her up completely?

She imagined it and felt so safe.

After a long while, the person under him didn't move, and Xia Chu couldn't help asking: "What's wrong? Am I too heavy?"

"No!" Zhao Huazhang quickly retorted, stretching out his hands but not daring to hold the other person's legs. He simply hooked his wrists around her knees and stood up. It was very light, very small. Zhao Huazhang smiled gently, but unfortunately the person on his back couldn't see it. He said softly: "It's very light."

The sudden rise made Xia Chu feel as if she was about to fall. She closed her arms and put them around Zhao Huazhang's neck. The distance between them became closer. She could smell the scent of Zhao Huazhang's hair. It seemed to be a woody scent, but she couldn't tell what it was. It smelled a bit pleasant. "Your hair is so black."

It was thick, unlike my own hair, which was thin and soft. When I woke up from sleeping, it looked like a bird's nest.

Zhao Huazhang looked down at his chest, where the other person's hair mixed with his own. There was an inexplicable harmony. "Your hair is also very black."

Xia Chu was a little worried when they first started walking, but Zhao Huazhang walked steadily and seemed very relaxed.

It was nice not to have to walk by herself, she gently rested her chin on Zhao Huazhang's shoulder.

Zhao Huazhang has very good skin. His skin color is not white, but he has no pimples or pores.

The eyebrows are neat and straight, with the peak pointing upwards, giving them a sharp look. The eyes are very close to the eyebrows, with obvious double eyelids and long eyelashes that are not curled.

His nose is straight, his lips are neither thick nor thin, his chin is not pointed, and his jawline is clear.

Hey, that's my Adam's apple. Why does it keep rolling up and down? I wonder if it feels hard or soft. Is the Adam's apple a bone?

Zhao Huazhang's cheeks tightened, and Xia Chu's gaze made him feel a little hot. The other person's breath sprayed on his neck, moist and warm, making him want to hide away.

Xia Chu noticed his bulging masseter muscles. Was it too heavy? "Are you tired?"

"No." Zhao Huazhang shook his head subconsciously, but Xia Chu just moved and her lips brushed across Zhao Huazhang's cheek.

Soft lips slid across his face, bringing a slight shudder. Zhao Huazhang tightened his hands and felt a tingling sensation spreading from his cheeks to his heart.

Xia Chu's head jerked back, her face flushed and her eyes widened as she stammered an apology, "Ah! Yes, I'm sorry!"

Zhao Huazhang's body swayed, and he bent down, worried that Xia Chu would fall. He said nervously, "It's my fault."

The two people with red faces fell silent, each feeling annoyed.

Xia Chu squeezed her eyes shut, her mind screaming, "How embarrassing! Why should I apologize?! I just kissed my boyfriend on the cheek! What's the big deal?"

This doesn't feel like a relationship between a boyfriend and girlfriend at all, they don't feel very familiar.

Zhao Huazhang said it was his fault, but there were only two words in his mind: so soft.

He wanted to be kissed again, a few more times. He resisted the urge to turn his face away and focused on the road ahead.

Xia Chu paused for a moment, wanting to say something but not knowing how. He could only look around. The mountain road was not smooth, but Zhao Huazhang walked on it as if it were flat ground.

The surrounding trees were lush and green, and occasionally a couple of squirrels could be seen darting across the branches. She looked up at the branches overhead and asked worriedly, "Will a snake fall from there?"

"No." Zhao Huazhang said calmly, "Snakes are afraid of people. They will hide when they hear any noise. As long as you don't provoke them, they won't attack you."

His firm tone reassured Xia Chu, "Is that so?"

"Well, humans are not within the snake's hunting range," Zhao Huazhang explained. "Animals prefer to prey on prey that is smaller than themselves, or not much smaller than themselves. Humans are too big for snakes."

"Oh." Xia Chu relaxed and put her chin back on Zhao Huazhang's shoulder. She felt the other's shoulder muscles tighten and couldn't help thinking: He is so nervous just putting his chin down. If I blow on his neck, he won't throw me away, right?

Hey, his neck is red.

Shy?

Is she so innocent? Xia Chu couldn't help but chuckle. The red color could be seen spreading upwards, and her ears were red enough to bleed.

Zhao Huazhang's face flushed red, and half his body felt numb, especially his neck, which felt hot and numb. He felt as if something was gently tickling his heart, causing an unbearable tingling sensation.

Xia Chu seemed to have discovered some interesting toy. She moved her chin closer to Zhao Huazhang's neck and felt the heat.

This arc seems to be very suitable for placing a face. If I rub it with my face, will he fall to the ground?

Forget it, Xia Chu put away the idea of playing tricks. Falling would still hurt, and if he rolled down this hill, he would be dead.

Zhao Huazhang wanted to turn around, but was afraid of bumping into something else. He could only walk forward stiffly. Fortunately, he finally reached the top of the mountain.

He found a flat ground and slowly put the person down. When he looked up, he met Xia Chu's smiling eyes and couldn't help but smile, "Are you hungry?"

"A little bit. Are you tired?" Xia Chu asked, looking around and finding a rock. "Sit down for a while and eat something."

Zhao Huazhang leaned over and sat down next to the person, then became stiff again.

Xia Chu didn't notice that she had lifted the cotton cloth to reveal neatly arranged Chongyang cakes. Because the basket was not big, only one of each flavor was placed in it.

She introduced them to Zhao Huazhang one by one, "Which one do you want? I like this flavor the best."

"Then I'll try this." Zhao Huazhang said, but realized that there was only one, and Xia Chu also liked it. He moved his hand and handed the cake to Xia Chu, "You like it."

Xia Chu took it and broke it in half, "Try it too."

The wind on the top of the mountain was a little cool, but the midday sun made people's skin burn. Xia Chu shrank back and hid in the shade of the trees.

The mountain wasn't very high, and there were higher peaks around it. At a glance, it was all green. Looking down, she saw the official road she had come from look like a small white earthworm.

"It's delicious. Did you make it?" Zhao Huazhang turned his head and couldn't help looking at Xia Chu's lips, which were pink and attractive. It was here just now, did it touch his face?
