Xia Yanran ran into an alley.
Her sprained ankle had healed completely, and she was so agile she seemed like she could fly.
Xiao Yi stared at her back-view that looked as happy as a little bird. He quickly ran after her.
The young girl and her brother remained there. Shock could be seen in their eyes as they stared at Xia Yanran and Xiao Yi, both exclaiming to themselves.
To them, Xiao Yi was like a devil that people did not dare to approach easily.
A devil would not laugh.
But what were they seeing now?
He caught up with the grinning woman and pulled her into his arms. The woman leaned up and smiled at him.
It was an intimacy and sweetness that everything else paled to.
And that devil-like man was actually smiling as well.
The handsome man and beautiful woman looked like they were a match made in heaven, as if they were a beautiful painting.
People could not help but admire them when they saw them.
Xia Yanran held onto Xiao Yi’s large hand as they walked towards the entrance of the village.
On their way there, several children greeted Xia Yanran obediently when they saw her, while several middle-aged women also exchanged greetings with them.
Xia Yanran was naturally optimistic and friendly. She had become friends with the villagers over the last few days.
However, fear and alertness was still present when everyone saw Xiao Yi.
Although he had shaved his beard and cut his hair to make him looked handsome, he still had a fierce aura he brought with him, making others unable to approach him easily.
Xia Yanran pinched the man’s slender and well-defined finger. “Stop having such a dark expression. You have to smile like me, so that everyone will like you.”
Xiao Yi stared at Xia Yanran, pinching her pretty face. “Why do I need others to like me? Someone will get jealous then.”
Xia Yanran pouted and glared at him. “You’re saying it like I’m very petty.”
“Are you very generous then?”
The two continued to squabble as they arrived at the front of the village.
The shop’s lady boss welcome Xia Yanran with a bright smile when she saw her. Xia Yanran had given her some business recently, so the two of them had come to know each other a little better.
However, when she saw that Xia Yanran had brought a tall man with her today, the lady boss froze in surprise for a second before she pulled Xia Yanran to the side, asking her softly, “Miss Xia, aren’t you taking care of that fierce man in the cave?”
The lady boss’ voice was naturally loud and although she already suppressed her voice, Xiao Yi still heard what she said with his sharp hearing.
He narrowed his eyes slightly at Xia Yanran, who felt his eyes and glanced towards him as well.
The lady boss watch as the two of them flirted with their eyes, unable to stop herself from asking once more, “Don’t you like that man in the cave? However, this man is good too. He’s good looking and has a good figure, he’s probably quite strong in that aspect.”
Xia Yanran was reminded that they had just done it not long before, and her face blushed unconsciously at the thought that he was indeed rather strong.
“Aiyo, did the two of you…” The lady boss’ eyes were widened in speculation.
Xia Yanran hurriedly stopped the lady boss from imagining more things. She said with a smile, “He’s the one from the cave.”
The lady boss froze, she was so shocked her eyes looked like they were about to fall out.
Was that man in the cave originally so handsome? It was no wonder why Miss Xia was not afraid of him when everyone was, and continued to be faithful to him!
Xia Yanran made a scrumptious meal at the lady boss’ house. After they ate with Xiao Yi and the lady boss’ family, the two of them returned to the mountain.
Xia Yanran was wearing the most common clothes in the village, and had tied her long hair up into a fishtail braid that was tilted towards her shoulder. Her face was void of any makeup, her skin supple and moist. She jumped and skipped as she walked, smiling brightly.
He had never seen her this happy before.
The two of them sat on a thick tree branch to watch the sun set, as she hugged his arm and leaned her head on his shoulders.
Xiao Yi glanced at the young woman resting on his shoulders. The scarlet red light of the setting sun fell across her face, creating a soft glow of light around her. She had a smile on her lips, her eyes bright and she looked so beautiful he felt like he could stop breathing.
He leaned down slowly, placing a kiss on her forehead.
…
It had been another ten days.
The time Xiao Yi took whenever his drug addiction acted up became shorter and shorter.
Xia Yanran felt that the two of them should be able to return to Ning City after a few more weeks.
Today, when it was almost the afternoon, Xia Yanran walked to the man who was smoking by the cave’s entrance.
She tiptoed, placing a kiss on his handsome cheek. “I’m going to the lady boss’ house to cook.”
During this period, whenever he was not willing to leave the house, she would go to the lady boss’ house alone to make tasty food and bring it back to eat with him.
Xiao Yi tapped the cigarette, patting her head lightly. “You may go, my snail girl.”
Xia Yanran glared at him. “I’ll definitely bully you for everything you’ve done after you recovered.”
Xiao Yi smiled in a gangster manner. “How are you going to bully me? Taking my yang to replenish your yin?”
Xia Yanran wanted to kick him to his death so badly.
Watching her turn around to leave, Xiao Yi grabbed her wrist and threw her towards the wall behind him. He leaned in towards her with his tall figure.
He was a lot taller than her, as she looked up while he looked down.
This angle was very suitable for kissing.
Xia Yanran naturally wrapped her arms around his neck, her fingers to move to brush through his short black hair and tickle his scalp.
Xiao Yi’s eyes darkened. “Are you itchy?”
Xia Yanran immediately understood what he meant.
This gangster-like man would never change the way he behaved.
She opened her mouth, wanting to scold him when he immediately sealed her mouth with a lips.
He was extremely ruthless today, not leaving any leeway for her.
Xia Yanran felt pain as she hit his head. However, he continued to push her mouth apart and moved his tongue in.
Xia Yanran could not push him away, her legs weakening after the ferocious kiss continued for a while. To prevent herself from falling down, she wrapped her arms around his neck.
In a place where the slight wind was slightly humid, only the water sounds of the pair’s ferocious kiss and the heavy but scandalous pants of their heated breaths could be heard.
…
When Xia Yanran arrived at the lady boss’ house to cook, her scarlet lips were still numb.
“Miss Xia, you’re really good to your man.”
Xia Yanran smiled. “He’s actually rather nice to me too.”
After she was done with the last dish, Xia Yanran had just left the store when the young girl that saved Xiao Yi ran over hurriedly. “Sister Xia, several black sedans arrived at the village and they drove over to the cave!”
Xia Yanran immediately froze.
“I’ll go take a look!”
Xia Yanran did not even care to pack the food. Her legs started running towards the cave without stopping.
Five black sedans had stopped in front of the mountain, and when Xia Yanran ran over, she saw Xiao Xi wearing a white dress getting off a car and running into Xiao Yi’s arms.
There was quite a distance between them, and Xia Yanran could not hear what Xiao Xi was saying to Xiao Yi. She only saw Xiao Yi pat her back with his large hands.
Xia Yanran froze on the spot, not moving forward to approach them.
A while later, Xia Yanran saw a dignified man wearing a Chinese tunic get off from a car.
The man walked to Xiao Yi and patted his shoulders. The two of them conversed for a while and Xia Yanran saw Xiao Yi nodding at him.
Xiao Yi got into the car with them.
The luxurious sedans started to drive away.
When the car Xiao Yi was in passed by her, Xia Yanran heard that man say to Xiao Yi, “It’s good that you’ve thought things through. After I step down, wouldn’t the position of gang leader be yours?”
