When our eyes meet, we feel the distance between us.

Her palm-sized face was as red as the setting sun, and the panic in her eyes fell into his equally panicked eyes.

Yi Yao walked out of the house and was shocked to see them like this.

The tomb owner who was not interested in women was actually molested by Mu Shuiqi!

Look, the tomb owner's face is slightly red!

"Mu Shuiqi, what are you doing to the tomb master?" Yi Yao rushed over and pulled Mu Shuiqi away.

Mu Shuiqi smoothed her hair awkwardly, "Just as you can see."

"You..." Yi Yao pointed at her and couldn't say a word. "You are shameless!"

"How am I shameless?" She said anxiously, "I didn't do it on purpose, I just didn't stand firmly!"

"I deliberately didn't stand still!"

"I'm wondering why you always target me. Are you jealous that I'm close to your tomb master? Are you having any improper thoughts about him?" She even suspected that Yi Yao had a crush on his tomb master.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yi Yao was almost fainted with anger. "Master, look at her nonsense."

Bingyou straightened her sleeves that were torn by her, and her expression quickly returned to normal.

Chouchou became smaller and flew over to join in the fun and settle the lawsuit: "You two are so childish!"

Upon hearing this, Yi Yao and Mu Shuiqi rolled their eyes at Chou Chou. He put on a smile, stuck out his tongue, and hid behind Bing You.

"Come in." He glanced at them with a half-smile and went into the house carrying a bunch of food.

Yi Yao followed him in, staring intently at the food, rubbing his hands together secretly. "Master, I smell the scent of fragrant chicken."

"Master, your face is so red. Do you have a fever?" Chouchou poked Mu Shuiqi's face.

She huffed, "I got mad at some idiot."

She bought a sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice cake and brought it back especially for Bingyou. Knowing that he loved sweets, she bought quite a few sweet pastries this time.

The fragrant chicken was originally meant for Yi Yao, but Yi Yao had just made her so angry that she didn't want to give it to him at all.

Looking at Yi Yao's wolfing down of food, she asked, "Is it delicious?"

Yi Yao nodded: "It smells good."

"Do you want to eat it next time?" She said with a forced smile.

Yi Yao hesitated, "What do you want to do?"

"If you want to eat the fragrant chicken I bought you in the future, please be polite to me." She crossed her arms over her chest, still brooding over what had just happened, with a look of anger on her face.

A good man never suffers a loss in front of him. For the sake of the fragrant chicken, he compromised. "Miss Mu is so tolerant and generous. Don't argue with me."

Yi Yao was still a teenager, after all, and still had a childish streak. Bing You was used to being respectful to him, and she rarely saw him act so willfully.

He then remembered that Yi Yao was still a child. He was just used to Yi Yao's maturity.

With Mu Shuiqi's arrival, the Ice Tomb was much more lively than before, and the Cloud Pavilion also had a vibrant life.

He lived a long and peaceful life alone, without any joy, anger, sorrow or happiness.

Later, they adopted little Yi Yao. Yi Yao was sensible and capable. Knowing that he always liked quietness, they never dared to disturb his peace easily.

Until Mu Shuiqi appeared, she was full of youthful vitality and often made people laugh.

He began to experience a slight sense of joy.

It is indeed much more interesting than being as dull as water.

He silently savored her sweet-scented osmanthus rice cake. It was lightly sweet, not overpowering. The unique fragrance of the sweet-scented osmanthus flowed between his teeth, leaving a lasting aftertaste.

"Do you like sweet-scented osmanthus rice cakes?" She held her face with both hands and stared at him with bright eyes.

Yi Yao smiled and said, "The osmanthus glutinous rice cakes you brought back last time were all eaten by the tomb master. Do you think he liked them?"

He gave Yi Yao a look, letting him take it in. Yi Yao made an "oh" shape with his mouth and ate silently.

Too much talk leads to mistakes. This is what the tomb owner often taught him.

"Bingyou, why is Zishang Lake frozen?" She remembered to ask this question.

Bing You's eyes flickered slightly as she said calmly, "Because you took the contents and activated the formation."

It turns out Zishang Lake is protected by a formation. Even a lake is so spiritual. If you take something from it, it will freeze over, preventing you from entering or taking anything else.

"When will it melt?"

"It depends on its mood." Bingyou said.

"It still has a mood?" she gasped. "It's outrageous."

"There are elves guarding Zishang Lake. It's a formation set up by those elves." Yi Yao explained to cover up for the tomb owner.

So, if the elves could just let down their guard, the formation around Zishang Lake would be lifted? She thought this method was feasible.

"Then can you go and talk to the elves of Zishang Lake to melt the ice so that I can go home?" She asked Bingyou.

Bing You put down the glutinous rice cake, his handsome face slightly startled: "You really want to go home?"

"Well, I have a lot of things to do back home." When she thought of her courses, part-time job, and Cui Mengmeng, she wanted to go back.

People always have things they care about when they are in a foreign land.

"Now that you're back, do you still want to come to Xuanyu?" he said calmly.

Two days ago, her answer would definitely be no.

But now, she hesitated.

"Do you want me to go back to Xuanyu?" She smiled and asked instead of answering.

He raised his eyes to meet her charming peach blossom eyes, and remained silent.

Seeing that the tomb owner was too embarrassed to say it out loud, Yi Yao said it for him: "The tomb owner must want you to come back."

If she didn't come back, wouldn't the tomb owner's plan be in vain?

Bing You looked at Yi Yao's childish face, her gaze slightly tense. This child would never learn the lesson of the dangers of talking too much.

Yi Yao understood the blame in the tomb master's eyes and hurriedly lowered his head to gnaw on the chicken.

For Yu Mu Shuiqi, getting this answer made her very happy.

Even though it wasn't the answer Bingyou gave personally, she assumed it was what he meant.

"I'll come back to see you." She turned her head and looked away, smiling like a flower.

Chouchou felt that she was laughing for no apparent reason, so he asked, "Master, is there anything funny?"

"..." She stretched out her fist and punched it on the head. "Stop talking nonsense, eat yours."

The sound of snow falling outside the window was so faint that no one heard it.

Only Bing You was as careful as a needle. He looked out the window and said softly, "It's snowing."

He was born in the glacier and had always loved ice and snow. Every time the snow fell, he would watch it carefully.

He stood up, walked slowly to the door and leaned over the railing to look at the snow.

The sky was dark and white snow fell from the night sky, turning into ice water and covering everything on the earth.

The filth of the world is about to be washed away by the snow.

She ran out and was pleasantly surprised to see snow. In Yicheng, it only snowed three or four times a year.

Her delicate hands reached out to catch the snowflakes, which were as cold as her own.

He looked at her sideways, and her joyful expression was reflected in his eyes.

"Do you like snow?" he asked with a smile.

She held the snowflakes she had gathered in her hand in front of him, her smile blooming like a flower.

“I’ve loved snow since I was a child,” she said, “and now I love it even more.”

"Why do you like it more now?"

"Because I love the whole house, I love the whole family too." Her smile gradually became shy.
