"Does Auntie think something's wrong?"
Fang Bai replied without hesitation, "Of course, such an... improper thing."
The kind of knowledge she considers to be that which enhances oneself and makes one erudite, not—
The idea was abruptly interrupted.
Fang Bai was pinched.
Looking at Ji Yuning, Fang Bai saw that she not only didn't let go, but squeezed him again. Fang Bai asked her with his eyes what she was doing.
“Since Auntie thinks the topic is wrong, let’s discuss it in more detail and see who is right,” Ji Yuning said slowly and deliberately.
Fang Bai then had a second question on his mind.
She asked Ji Yuning earnestly, "Aren't you tired?"
Ji Yuning honestly replied, "It's because Auntie is too weak."
This was the first time Fang Bai had been told she was physically weak. Although she rarely exercised, she hadn't missed a day, so it could be said that she was exercising appropriately.
Fang Bai always believed that she had a very good constitution and never associated her with being "weak".
And the type of person she considers physically weak refers to—
You mean I'm getting old, is that right?
"?"
I disagree.
When the topic of age came up, it was like facing a bomb that could explode at any moment. Ji Yuning dared not make any further moves. She carefully withdrew her hand, leaned down and hugged Fang Bai, "No."
When Ji Yuning put her arm around him, Fang Bai realized what had happened. He nudged Ji Yuning's arm, which was pressed against his collarbone, and said softly, "Get up first, I'll go find some clothes to wear."
Ji Yuning didn't move; instead, she hugged Fang Bai tighter.
“I have never cared about or thought about age, because you yourself have already attracted all my attention. I have no time to think about these meaningless things, age is irrelevant to you and me.”
Ji Yuning kissed Fang Bai's earlobe, thinking of the clips she had seen online before, and after a moment's thought, coaxed, "Besides, thirty is the most beautiful age. You are still the most beautiful person in the world. No words are enough to describe you..."
"Are you done talking?" Fang Bai asked.
Ji Yuning: "Mm."
Pushing Ji Yuning's arm away, Fang Bai ignored his racing heartbeat and said, "Go get me some clothes."
Fang Bai's eyes were like the mist in the night sky, hazy and reflecting the shimmering moonlight.
Ji Yuning knew she was shy and thought she should be able to get through this hurdle, so she obeyed the order and got up to find clothes.
As soon as Ji Yuning left, Fang Bai pulled the blanket over himself.
She didn't have any age anxiety at all, and she was very calm when she asked that question; it was just a very simple question.
Unexpectedly, Ji Yuning was even more sensitive than her.
Ji Yuning's words lingered in my ears; her clear, cool voice conveyed an irresistible tenderness.
It's very sweet and cloying.
Ji Yuning handed Fang Bai a black shirt, a rather plain one, the hem of which just covered his hips when he put it on.
Fang Bai rarely wears black; she usually wears various light-colored soft tones.
The black color made her skin appear even whiter, and the slightly open neckline revealed her collarbone and neck in a beautiful way.
The clothes belong to Ji Yuning.
Normally, when Ji Yuning wears her clothes, the buttons on her chest are neatly arranged and the clothes are loose. But when Fang Bai wears them, the gap between the two buttons is stretched open, and her fair chest is faintly visible.
"Xiao Ning, this dress is too small for you," Fang Bai said, but because she was used to the feeling of being restricted by clothes, she didn't want to change it.
Fang Bai didn't notice Ji Yuning looking at her, and turned over to lie down: "Auntie, rest for a while. If Xiao Mu and the others come looking for me, wake me up."
She was a little sleepy.
First, I drank alcohol, then I exercised, and then I got up early.
Fang Bai felt like his whole body was about to fall apart and desperately needed sleep to replenish his energy.
Just as she closed her eyes, she heard Ji Yuning call her name:
"Fang Bai".
Fang Bai didn't open his eyes, but responded, "Hmm?"
"I don't think I've ever told you this before..."
He stopped halfway through his sentence, forcing Fang Bai to lift his eyelids and look at Ji Yuning.
The moment Fang Bai looked over, Ji Yuning placed her hands on either side of Fang Bai's body, her eyes like a cool mountain spring in summer, staring directly at Fang Bai.
Fang Bai asked, "What did you say?"
At the same time, she was still wondering what she hadn't said. She felt that she and Ji Yuning had no secrets.
The words had been lingering in my heart for many years, but speaking them aloud was not so easy.
After Fang Bai's eyelashes trembled twice, Ji Yuning slowly spoke:
"I love you."
The child's confession was full of enthusiasm and deep affection.
Fang Bai felt as if he had fallen into a cotton cloud, deeply immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.
The feeling of being enveloped by layers of clouds is an indescribable sense of security.
Fang Bai half-lifted his eyelids, "Hmm?"
I said, I love you.
"I love you."
Ji Yuning repeated herself, as if making up for what she hadn't had time to say before.
"I--"
Ji Yuning's lips were sealed by soft flower petals, and under the light kiss, Fang Bai's eyes unconsciously moistened.
The kiss ended quickly, and Fang Bai hooked his arm around Ji Yuning's neck, looking into her eyes.
A few seconds later, Fang Bai gently brushed his nose against Ji Yuning's nose, "Me too."
Her voice carried a soft, amused tone.

Chapter 128
Time was tight, so Fang Bai and Ji Yuning did not stay in Yun City for long and left for Hu City on the third day.
However, on the evening of the second day, Ji Yuning took Fang Bai to the mountaintop, ostensibly to watch the sunset, but really to swing on the swings.
When Ji Yuning pulled Fang Bai to sit on the swing, Fang Bai saw through Ji Yuning's intentions, but she didn't expose them and instead gently accommodated her.
After He Ziyan found out about this, she even sent Ji Yuning a WeChat message to make fun of her.
Then……
He Ziyan was blocked by Ji Yuning.
It was the kind of message block that prevented her from receiving new message notifications, because Ji Yuning knew that whenever He Ziyan had free time, she would send her a message from time to time to remind her.
Fang Bai, who was watching from the side, chuckled softly.
Ji Yuning frowned. "Did your aunt tell her?"
Fang Bai blinked, his eyes smiling, "I'm not as childish as you two."
Unexpectedly, although the two became friends, their way of getting along was a love-hate relationship.
“Maybe Xiao He saw it by accident? Just like you did yesterday?” Fang Bai said again.
The last sentence reignited Ji Yuning's memories, and it was very damaging.
“…”
Ji Yuning fell silent.
Otherwise, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to resist blocking He Ziyan.
They flew to Huzhou soon, where Uncle Li picked them up at the airport.
Knowing that Fang Bai was coming back, Wu Mei prepared dinner early. When Fang Bai and his companion stepped into the house, they smelled the familiar aroma.
Fang Bai hadn't eaten Wu Mei's cooking in a long time, and he was missing it a little.
She wasn't hungry at first, but her appetite was whetted.
While Fang Bai was eating, Wu Mei stood to the side, watching the two of them with a loving and joyful expression.
"Miss, did the master say he'd like to bring Xiao Ji along for a family reunion dinner tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow won't work."
Tomorrow is the anniversary of Lu Xia's death, which is why they rushed back to Hushi.
Fang Bai put down his chopsticks. "The day after tomorrow."
Wu Mei nodded: "Okay, then I'll call Mr. in a bit."
Ji Yuning looked at Fang Bai.
