Stealing the moonlight into my arms

Fu Runing was looking up travel guides for Jincheng when she heard some noise outside. She looked up and saw that it was Xiao Jingting who had returned.

Recently, she and Xiao Jingting reached a brief reconciliation, and the two get along quite harmoniously.

At least we didn't quarrel anymore.

On a spring evening, roses are in full bloom in the garden of Xishan Bay Villa.

Xiao Jingting found Fu Runing in the garden.

She looked at the tall and handsome man who appeared before her, smiled and greeted him: "You came back quite early today."

Her tone was casual and natural, no different from the past three years, as if life had returned to the past.

Back to the old days when they were relatively peaceful.

Xiao Jingting lowered his eyes to glance at the kitten at his feet, then casually sat down on a rattan chair beside him.

"Fu Runing, why did you give these cats away?"

Listening to the man's questioning, Fu Runing scratched the tabby cat's chin and said, "Didn't we agree to find new adopters a long time ago? These kittens are so pitiful. They will definitely not survive if they are released."

She thought to herself that it was all Xiao Jingting's fault. He had to compete with her and asked Chu Yi to catch three kittens.

Xiao Jingting's eyes were looking at nowhere, as if they had no focus.

After a long while, he said calmly: "Stray cats are not pitiful. If you don't pick it up, it will not be pitiful."

"It's pitiful that you picked it up and are about to throw it away."

Hearing this, Fu Runing paused and looked at Xiao Jingting strangely.

What's his tone?

Why does it sound weird.

Fu Runing retorted, "Is this my fault? Wasn't it you who asked Chu Yi to catch him back?"

Xiao Jingting didn't say anything else, his calm gaze fell on her.

After a moment, he slowly spoke, "I've discussed this with your father. We can designate guardianship for the girl named Xu Luo, without going through the adoption process. But I still hope you'll be cautious. Raising a four-year-old child is not like raising a kitten or a puppy. If you don't want to keep her, you can always give her away."

Xu Luo is Old Xu’s four-year-old granddaughter.

Fu Runing met the man's deep eyes and was moved.

She suddenly leaned closer to the man and sniffed his clothes with the tip of her nose.

Xiao Jingting leaned back because of her sudden approach, and his throat rolled slightly.

He looked away and said in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

Fu Runing gave up because she didn't smell any woman's perfume on him.

She calmly stared into the man's deep eyes and teased, "What did you do wrong that you're suddenly so nice?"

She was also a servile person. She always felt that there was something wrong if Xiao Jingting didn't quarrel with her. She had long been accustomed to his cold words.

Xiao Jingting ignored her words and just glanced at the kitten on the ground.

"You can keep these cats if you want. Your family can afford them."

After saying this, the man stood up and left the garden.

Fu Runing looked at his back in a daze.

What does he mean by this? Is he asking for peace?

……

That night, Fu Runing knew why Xiao Jingting was so easy to talk to.

In her drowsiness, she felt the bed sink slightly, and then she was pulled into a damp embrace.

In the darkness, the man turned over and propped himself up above her, his dark eyes locked on her face. He made no further move, just waiting quietly.

Unlike the previous tense situations, this time it was exceptionally peaceful.

The man's low voice sounded in her ears——

"I have nothing to do with others, don't wrongly accuse me."
