As night deepened, Qin Yue and Qin Yu got up to say goodbye.
Jiang Li took a bowl and packed the remaining mooncakes for them.
You can eat it as a dessert when you get home.
Jiang Li escorted the two to the door, while Ye Jingmo tidied up the tables and chairs in the front yard.
After waving goodbye, Jiang Li closed the front gate and walked along the bluestone path leading to the fields.
She crouched down to check the condition of the ground; the soil was somewhat dry and had clearly clumped together.
It crumbles into sand when you squeeze it in your hand.
Fortunately, the crops in the field are growing very well, and the sunshade in the front yard will prevent them from drying out and dying due to temporary water shortage.
Ye Jingmo went to the well, drew three buckets of water, poured them into the buckets, and moved the large steel plate to cover the well opening.
Jiang Li weeded the fields, and he helped by watering the crops.
Water is not so scarce for them now, so they can be relatively generous when irrigating their crops.
Jiang Li also filled the pond with water to prevent the fish from dying due to lack of water and oxygen.
After finishing the work in the front yard, Jiang Li went back inside and took a shower to wash away the dust and sweat.
She sat slumped on the sofa.
Ye Jingmo sat down beside her and massaged her shoulders and waist with his hands.
Jelly ran over and nuzzled Jiang Li's hand, then snuggled into her arms.
Pudding, not to be outdone, squatted down beside Jiang Li's legs, letting her feet step on it, acting as a blanket.
"How is this strength?"
Jiang Li relaxed and leaned against the sofa armrest, stroking the cat's head with one hand.
"Hmm, this pressure feels very comfortable."
"Brother Mo, you could become a professional massage therapist someday. I guarantee your massage parlor would be a huge success."
She said it jokingly.
"How about I open a shop to serve you exclusively and become your personal massage therapist?"
Ye Jingmo continued, echoing Jiang Li's words.
"Hehe, then I won't charge you money, I'll go every day."
Jiang Li laughed out loud. She moved her shoulders and felt that the soreness had lessened a lot.
She glanced at her watch; it was almost midnight, and she couldn't help but sigh.
"Time flies, today is over in the blink of an eye."
Jiang Li got up and prepared to lie down on the bed, trying to fall asleep.
suddenly,
Ye Jingmo grabbed her arm.
Jiang Li looked puzzled.
"Is there anything else, Brother Mo?"
Ye Jingmo pulled out a bamboo music box from behind him, shaped like an ancient multi-story building.
At the bottom of the lobby, there is a lifelike jade rabbit, its warm yellow glow shining through the light.
Gently turn the knob below, and classical music will play, tender and passionate.
Jiang Li took the music box, a surge of warmth welling up in her heart.
She lovingly stroked it with her hand, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Ye Jingmo.
"Is this a Mid-Autumn Festival gift for me?"
Ye Jingmo stepped in front of Jiang Li, so close that Jiang Li could feel Ye Jingmo's breath on her face.
Jiang Li felt her heart pounding as if it were about to leap out of her chest, and her hands involuntarily clenched tightly.
She had a guess in her mind, her lips slightly parted as if she wanted to ask something, but she didn't utter a sound.
"Lili, would you like to be with me?"
I want to be with you, not as an older brother, but as your lover.
This huge news was so shocking that Jiang Li couldn't believe it and could only stare blankly at Ye Jingmo.
Jiang Li felt that her soul was detached, like a puppet on a string, and she could only nod blankly.
Ye Jingmo's fingertips caressed Jiang Li's cheek, his voice filled with barely suppressed joy and excitement.
"Great, you said yes."
Ye Jingmo pulled Jiang Li into his arms and chuckled softly.
Jiang Li's pupils dilated, reflecting the image of the person in front of her.
"Brother Mo..."
He slowly kissed her lips, his voice fading into his throat.
The man's movements became more intense, hooking her slender neck and plundering the saliva from her mouth like an invading city.
The hot breath brushed against her face.
Jiang Li stared blankly at Ye Jingmo, her eyes filled with a faint mist, blinking dazedly.
Ye Jingmo looked at the dazed Jiang Li, hugged her limp body even tighter, and chuckled softly.
Jiang Li, realizing what was happening, felt a little embarrassed and struggled to get out of his arms.
Ye Jingmo loosened his grip on her arms, took out a ring from his pocket, and slipped it onto Jiang Li's index finger.
A dazzling diamond is set in the gold ring of the Möbius strip.
Feeling the coolness on her fingers, Jiang Li held her hand up to the light, looking at the sparkling ring, a blush crossing her face.
She is so happy.
With tears of emotion welling up in his eyes, Ye Jingmo wiped them away with his fingers.
"Alright, don't cry when you're so happy."
He reached out and stroked the ends of her hair, his tone gentle yet helpless.
"This is tears of joy!"
Jiang Li rested her head on Ye Jingmo's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and mumbled softly.
Her little hands were fiddling with the music box Ye Jingmo had given her in her bosom.
"Brother Mo, why did you give me a music box? Wouldn't a ring have been enough?"
Ye Jingmo closed his eyes briefly, inhaling her sweet fragrance, and slowly spoke:
"Today is your birthday, you've forgotten?"
Jiang Li's fair fingers gripped Ye Jingmo's clothes, her face full of surprise.
Is today her birthday?!
Ye Jingmo chose this day to confess his feelings to her because he thought it was a special and memorable day.
Jiang Li felt a slight swelling in her chest; her Brother Mo was still so gentle and considerate.
"You don't even remember your own birthday? Aren't you a forgetful idiot?"
Ye Jingmo put his arm around Jiang Li's waist, sat down on the sofa, and gently flicked her forehead with his finger.
Sitting on hard, muscular objects made Jiang Li feel uncomfortable, so she shifted her body, trying to find a more comfortable position.
As Jiang Li twisted, Ye Jingmo's eyes slowly deepened.
He held Jiang Li's shoulders, controlling her movements, and said in a low, hoarse voice:
"Don't move around."
Jiang Li paused upon hearing Ye Jingmo's words.
Even if you haven't eaten pork, haven't you seen a pig run?!
Jiang Li immediately realized what was happening. Her ears turned red, her eyes darted around, and her limbs stiffened. She didn't know how to move.
"I will be your partner from now on."
We will rely on each other until we grow old.
Don't be so shy.
Ye Jingmo teased Jiang Li.
Jiang Li stood up, threw herself onto the bed, and covered her head with the blanket, indicating that she didn't want to talk to Ye Jingmo.
Feeling a dent in the corner of the bed, Jiang Li blinked in the darkness of the covers, waiting for Ye Jingmo to speak.
But after waiting and waiting, there was still no sound. The air in the quilt became thin, and Jiang Li blushed and opened a small corner of the quilt.
Ye Jingmo's usually cold and silent face was now filled with a smile.
"Don't be angry, go to sleep."
It's very late.
Ye Jingmo gently rubbed the top of her head.
Jiang Li pursed her lips and finally nodded.
She needs time to process what happened tonight before she can adapt to this change in identity.
Ye Jingmo pulled the blanket up for her, turned off the light, and went back to his bed.
