She was upset at herself for being so easily entranced. She sunk her pretty face into the pillow and said moodily, “Damn it!”
On the other side, Ye Ling, who had left the room, was sitting in the yard. He watched Ye Yang making something with bamboo. He didn’t speak, and neither did Ye Yang. Ye Ling suddenly made a sound and asked Ye Yang a question.
“Yang, how did it feel when you and Duo Er kissed?”
When he heard that, Ye Yang’s hands stopped for a while before continuing again. There wasn’t any expression on his stoic face. “Sweet, soft.”
They only touched each other lightly for a short while. How could he feel anything from that? In any case, her lips were sweet and soft.
Ye Ling’s face turned red when he heard that. He also felt the same way. Both of them sank into silence and were thinking back on the feeling they had when they kissed Liu Duo.
Ye Mo came out and also started to chop the firewood in the yard with an ax. All three of them were silent.
Inside the house, Liu Duo lifted her head from the pillow when she found it difficult to breathe. She muttered, “Ah, so annoying.”
She didn’t know what she was annoyed about. In any case, her heart was just in a state of chaos. That serious gaze that Ye Mo had just given her kept popping into her mind.
“I should find something to do. What should I do?” Liu Duo scratched her head and talked to herself.
She got down from the bed to put on her shoes. She then sat beside the bed and scanned the small space around her. Not only did it lack many basic necessities, but it was also extremely shabby.
She went to take the brush, ink, paper, ink stone, and even a pack of snacks, before leaving the room. She prepared to draw her dream house and the other things, like the wardrobes.
She sat beside the table under the roof and, just as she finished arranging the brush, ink, paper and ink stone, Ye Ling approached her. “Duo Er, are you going to draw something?”
“Yeah, I am preparing to draw something. Come and sit beside me. I’m gonna draw the big house that we will live in in the future. And also the wardrobe and some other things.” She reached out and pulled a stool over for him.
“Oh.” Ye Ling sat beside her and watched her seriously.
Fortunately, she was quite good at drawing. Her drawing of the house looked quite good. It was a relatively simple, four-story building. It was a slightly modified version of the old houses that she was familiar with.
She ate the snacks while she drew. Ye Ling was especially considerate and helped to feed the snacks to Liu Duo.
After finishing the last stroke of the sketch, Liu Duo, feeling satisfied, blew on the ink to make it dry faster.
“Ling, how is it? Do you like this kind of house?” Liu Duo asked Ye Ling with a smile.
He nodded his head. “I like it. If Duo Er likes it, then I like it as well. But Duo Er, why do you want to build a four-story house? We won’t be able to use so many rooms, right?”
The first floor of the house in Liu Duo’s drawing was a very spacious dining room. There were four rooms on each floor, from the second floor onwards, and there were twelve rooms in total.
When she heard him, Liu Duo said with a smile, “Many? How is it too many?”
“Didn’t Duo Er say that each of us will have our own room? Doesn’t that mean that there will be a lot of extra rooms? Building a house like this would cost a lot of money.” Ye Ling’s expression showed that he didn’t really understand. After all, there were just five of them.
Liu Duo pretended to be angry when she heard what Ye Ling said. She turned her face upwards and said, “So? We shouldn’t build rooms for our future babies, just because we are afraid of using money?!”
How did he forget that they would have babies in the future? Seeing that Liu Duo got angry, Ye Ling immediately said nervously, “No, no. Duo Er please don’t get mad. I…I didn’t think that far. It’s my fault for not thinking it through. How could I forget that we would have babies in the future.”
When he mentioned the word babies, Ye Ling’s face even turned red from embarrassment.
