He gave people a breath of fresh air. Be it his speech or actions, he made people feel especially comfortable. There was no discomfort at all, and it was very easy for others to let down their guard.
Bai Xianyu did not decline and took the silver from him. “Alright, I’ll go buy it then. Do you want a stick?”
“Emm.”
Bai Xianyu liked to eat sweet things, be it pastries or sweets. After walking a few steps, she bought two sticks of candied hawthorn from the vendor.
Mo Linyuan took one. “Thank you.”
Bai Xianyu took a bite, and the sour and sweet taste exploded in her mouth. She narrowed her eyes in satisfaction and said with a smile, “You’re welcome. You just said that we’re friends, and also the money is yours.”
Mo Linyuan looked at the girl’s exquisite face and red lips, and his heart skipped a beat. “Is it delicious?”
“Yes, yes. Try it quickly.” Not only did Bai Xianyu like to eat it herself, but she also liked to encourage others to eat with her.
Mo Linyuan obediently took a bite. To be honest, it was too sweet and not something he liked. When he bit down, it was sour and sweet. In the past, he would never have eaten it.
However, Bai Xianyu raised her head and looked straight at him with her beautiful eyes. She was implicitly looking forward to it and her cheeks were slightly puffed up. She was ridiculously cute.
Mo Linyuan smiled, “Delicious.”
Bai Xianyu revealed a knowing expression and smiled innocently. “1 knew it.
There are also men who like to eat sweet things. In the past, I…” novelbuddy.c om
She suddenly paused.
Mo Linyuan smiled and asked, “What did you do in the past?”
‘In the past, when I bought it for Xie Xingyun, he did not like it.’
“In the past, someone told me that men don’t like to eat such sweet stuff.” The smile on Bai Xianyu’s face faded. “But seeing that you said it was delicious today, it proves that he’s not right either.”
Seeing her secretive look, Mo Linyuan had a guess about this man who did not like sweets.
“Yes,” Mo Linyuan said. “People have different tastes. Some like sweet food, some like sour food, just like the person they like. Some like those who are lively and energetic, and some like those who are quiet and reserved.”
Bai Xianyu remembered that the purpose of his trip was to form a marriage alliance. Including her, there were a total of eight girls here. She wondered who he would choose in the end.
What type would a gentle and refined person like Mo Linyuan like?
She was a little curious and recalled their interactions over the past few days.
Mo Linyuan was caught off guard. “What are you thinking about?”
Bai Xianyu reflexively replied, “I’m wondering what type of person you’ll like.”
After saying that, the two of them were stunned.
Mo Linyuan smiled. “Do you want to know?”
Bai Xianyu answered subconsciously. It was only when she blurted it out that she realized that this question had gone overboard. She apologized, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have asked so much.”
Mo Linyuan saw the blush on her face and his heart palpitated even more. “You don’t have to apologize. 1’11 tell you if you want to know.”
Bai Xianyu was thin-skinned. With a little exercise, her cold white skin would be covered in a layer of redness, which was especially attractive. Seeing him say this, she could not suppress her curiosity. “Which type?”
Among the girls here, there were the quiet and elegant type, the unruly type, the warm and hospitable type. No one knew who he wanted to marry.
Mo Linyuan silently leaned closer, but he thought of something and kept her in suspense. “Guess.”
Bai Xianyu raised her eyebrows. Seeing that he was smiling without saying anything, she did not insist on asking for an answer. After all, as long as he did not like her, it was fine.
As soon as this thought crossed her mind, Bai Xianyu immediately shuddered warily. She probed jokingly, “In any case, it can’t be like me, right?”
Mo Linyuan thought that she was shy. In the past two days, even a blind person could tell that she cared about him.
Now, she even took the initiative to get along with him and buy food for him.
In reality, many women had expressed their feelings to him openly and covertly, but other than thanking them politely, there were no ripples in his heart. However, now that the protagonist of this matter was Bai Xianyu, he had a different feeling.
“Maybe.” Mo Linyuan’s answer was ambiguous. He took a bite of the candied hawthorn with a faint smile.
Seeing that he did not seem to be interested in her, Bai Xianyu was relieved.
Xie Xingyun’s eyes were cold when he saw them chatting and laughing. The sweet smell of the candied hawthorn in his hand became bitter.
The sound of gongs and drums filled the sky. The people who came and went happily called out counteroffers. A young couple in brocade clothes passed by with their children.
The child had two braids and was chasing after his friends with a bright smile.
Suddenly, a stick of candied hawthorn blocked her way. She looked up and saw a very handsome big brother.
He asked, “Do you like this?”
The little girl looked at the candy and swallowed her saliva, “Yes, yes.”
“Take it.”
The little girl shook her head with difficulty and said seriously, “Mother said that I can’t take things from strangers casually.”
Awhile later,
Xie Xingyun lowered his head. His eyes were dark, as if he was regretful. “If we had a daughter, she would have taught her well like your mother..”
