Moonlight falls into my arms

The two ate lunch a little late, around 2 p.m.

During the meal, Ruan Li asked for Jiang Yuci's phone.

"My yarn has arrived." She scrolled through the shopping app on her phone; it was all her stuff. Jiang Yuci rarely shopped online.

"Okay, I'll pick it up after I finish eating," Jiang Yuci said.

As Ruan Li listened to the voice beside her, she suddenly looked up at Jiang Yuci. He calmly lowered his eyelashes and used a spoon to brush away the oil droplets from the soup.

"Will you come with me?" she asked, her voice tinged with anticipation.

"What do you think?" Jiang Yuci reached out and took the phone back, her tone clearly indicating that she didn't want to go out with Ruan Li.

"Actually, I'm a little curious why you're willing to let me stay at your house?" Ruan Li asked.

Jiang Yuci suddenly paused, giving Ruan Li a strange look, "What are you going to act now?"

"..."

Ruan Li shut her mouth, as if no matter what she said, Jiang Yuci always felt that she was acting.

“You…” The person who had just lowered his head looked at Ruan Li again, his eyes deep and dark, as if he were hiding something.

Ruan Liqing's sharp gaze fell upon her. "What, you want to apologize to me? Do you realize that your attitude hurt me?"

“…” Jiang Yuci said, “Remember to make next Saturday free.”

Ruan Li nodded, feeling that perhaps she could gain something from meeting Jiang Yuci's mother this time, such as why Jiang Yuci always felt that she was acting in front of him.

Jiang Yuci cleaned up the dishes and, after washing them, sat on the sofa to watch TV, a rare occurrence for him.

Ruan Li went out to pick up the express delivery and came back carrying several bags.

When Jiang Yuci saw this, she simply carried it to the sofa.

Several bags were thrown to the ground with a clatter, stacked one on top of the other, pressing down on Jiang Yuci's feet.

Jiang Yuci moved to the side.

Ruan Li took a pair of scissors and started opening the package.

Jiang Yuci casually picked up the trash can and placed it in front of her package.

"Hold this for me." Ruan Li opened one and handed it to Jiang Yuci.

Jiang Yuci glanced at the empty sofa next to Ruan Li.

I took the package from her and put it on the shelf.

"Are you squatting?" He always saw Ruan Li squatting instead of sitting on the sofa.

"No, I won't sit." Ruan Li handed over another delivery bag. "Please toss it aside, thank you."

Jiang Yu resigned and became her deputy.

Ruan Li opened four express delivery bags: two small ones containing hair clips and hair ties, one large one containing a ball of yarn, and another containing a small blanket she had bought herself.

"You..." Jiang Yuci asked her with difficulty, "Aren't you trying to save money?"

Ruan Li nodded: "Yes, once I buy this batch, I'll never buy any more! I'm going to start saving money!"

Jiang Yuci simply gave an "oh" indifferently.

"Hold this yarn for me." Ruan Li handed it to him, blinking her eyes at him.

Jiang Yuci: "Weren't you going to knit me a scarf as an apology gift?"

Ruan Li nodded: "Yes, that's exactly what I was about to do."

"You gave me this as an apology gift, and you want me to help you?" Jiang Yuci took the ball of yarn.

Following the instructions in the video, Ruan Li first rolled the yarn into a ball.

Meanwhile, she accidentally dropped the ball of yarn on the floor, and it rolled all the way to the bathroom door.

Ruan Li followed along with her bent over the whole way.

Jiang Yuci watched from the side, both stunned and amused.

But by the time Ruan Li returned with the ball of yarn, he had already stopped smiling.

"Hiss, is this the way or the way? How did we get over there?" Ruan Li propped Jiang Yuci's phone up on the coffee table, craning her neck to almost touch the screen. "How did it suddenly get better?"

Jiang Yuci watched as she dragged the progress bar forward for the sixth time.

"This way..."

The little girl went from squatting to sitting on the floor, with several clumps of yarn beside her and yarn wrapped around her wrists and fingers.

His eyes were fixed on the screen, and his hand gestures were awkward as he twisted the yarn back and forth.

In the end, it either gets tangled into a knot or results in an ugly pattern that's completely different from what was taught.

A boring slice-of-life drama was playing on TV.

When Jiang Yuci listened to the video explanation for the eighth time, she couldn't resist anymore and took the yarn and knitting needles from Ruan Li's hands.

Ruan Ligang's palms were sweaty and damp from circling around for so long.

When Jiang Yuci's dry fingertips rubbed against it, it caused a slight itching sensation.

Ruan Li paused for a moment before looking at him.

With a flick of his fingertips, he unraveled the thread that Ruan Li had wrapped incorrectly and rewrapped a perfect one.

Ruan Li paused: "You? You can knit scarves?"

so amazing.

Jiang Yuci raised her eyes, which had been focused on the yarn, and glanced at Ruan Li: "I just learned it."

Ruan Li touched her nose: "You learn so fast." She braced herself on her knees, trying to stand up, but suddenly her vision went black and her head felt dizzy. She swayed to the side.

A hand quickly reached down to her side, stabilizing her as she was about to fall.

The room was heated, and Ruan Li was only wearing a thin sweater, a stark contrast to the warmth of a down jacket worn during the snowy daytime.

The tactile sensations in an enclosed space are even more profound.

Ruan Li's waist area is quite sensitive; she would shy away and laugh if her friends touched it.

But now it feels like I've lost my previous sensitive system, and I just feel a little... hot.

She lowered her eyelids and glanced at the hand with its distinct knuckles, but quickly withdrew them.

Ruan Li rubbed the fabric on her waist.

"Not that malnourished?" Jiang Yuci said casually, her eyes lowered as she knitted the scarf in her hands.

Ruan Li pinched the flesh on her waist; it felt numb.

She was a little dazed and sat down next to Jiang Yuci. "I'm just a little uncomfortable standing up suddenly after squatting for so long."

Jiang Yuci quickly finished weaving a row of neat patterns in one go.

Ruan Li's yarn was returned again. "It's pretty simple," he said.

Ruan Li pouted, "I really don't know how your hands are so useful. You can use them to wield a scalpel, cook, and even knit scarves."

Ruan Li lifted her leg and pulled it back, half-lying on the sofa, casually staring at the video tutorial.

They no longer have the same serious attitude as before.

"Hey, I clearly followed her instructions, how come it's reversed again..." Ruan Li looked down and started unraveling the stitches. "I'm flipping it over again, help, it's still wrong."

Ruan Li looked at the row she had woven, which contrasted with the row Jiang Yuci had woven.

They are practically the epitome of both excellent and poor students.

"Jiang Yuci..." A soft, sweet voice called his name in his ear.

Jiang Yuci, who hadn't been paying attention to television to begin with, quickly shifted his gaze to Ruan Li:

"busy?"

Ruan Li moved forward a little closer to him, "How do I do this? Why is mine different from what I've made? I clearly copied it."

Jiang Yuci pointed at the finger that was holding the string, "Your hand is in the wrong place. Take a good look at how it's placed in the video."

Ruan Li felt as if her finger had been burned. She pulled back slightly, stared at the phone screen, and said, "Tell me."
