Chapter 217 Snow
Meeting a worthy opponent in chess, Mu Jinghua felt more depressed than ever before.
But he was not a coward, so he simply threw down the pen in his hand and said bluntly: "In two days, the school in Shiqiao Village will be completed. Xu Shuding will go to the ceremony. We will meet at the back entrance of the mountain."
"Just a meeting?" Qin Lianxi raised an eyebrow. "Do you really think our conflict can be resolved in this way?"
"How do you know if you don't try it?" Mu Jinghua took out a new piece of paper and began to write down the menu. "After all, this is not the place to talk."
"If you really want to talk, why don't you come to Muyi Building every day and find me?"
"You are the husband of the county magistrate. How can it be easy for me to see you?"
Qin Lianxi stopped talking, stared at Mu Jinghua for a while, and then smiled: "I've been with Xu Shu for a long time, and even the polite words we say are the same."
Mu Jinghua ignored him and lowered his head to start writing the recipe.
Qin Lianxi leaned forward to take a look, then asked, "Today is your birthday, what did Xu Shu give you?"
Mu Jinghua glanced at him and still said nothing.
Qin Lianxi felt bored and sat aside to drink tea.
Mu Jinghua carefully wrote the recipe, folded it carefully and put it into the envelope.
When Qin Lianxi saw that he was done, he stood up to take it, but Mu Jinghua stood up and avoided him, with no intention of giving it to him at all.
Qin Lianxi's hands froze in the air, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.
Mu Jinghua didn't even look at him, but walked straight out towards Xu Shu.
Xiao Ran made his intention clear, and Xu Shu agreed. It was naturally a good thing to have the future male protagonist under his nose.
But he couldn't let this brat get involved with Mu Jinghua. Although he was confident in his charm, if someone really supported the couple Mu Jinghua and Xiao Wuyan as Qiao Wan said, then wouldn't that just be raising a love rival...
Xu Shu was thinking when Mu Jinghua came over, poked his head softly out of the door, and smiled at him softly, "Xu Shu."
"Come here." Xu Shu called him and smiled at him gently.
Mu Jinghua walked towards him with a smile, sat next to Xu Shu, and handed the envelope to Xiao Ran: "Recipe."
Xiao Ran took it without even looking at it, and just smiled: "Where did Ah Xi go?"
Mu Jinghua shook his head and leaned closer to Xu Shu: "I didn't see him."
Xu Shu turned his head to look at him: "Why, are you tired already?"
Mu Jinghua closed his eyes and pretended to sleep: "No?"
"Okay, okay." Xu Shu rubbed his head helplessly, and smiled at Xiao Ran awkwardly.
Xiao Ran put away the recipe and chuckled, "Then I won't bother you anymore."
Xu Shu responded, "I'll send it over at a certain time."
Xiao Ran nodded in agreement, and Mu Jinghua then asked, "What did you send?"
"Xiao Wuyan." Xu Shu kissed him, "I'll take you to see the gifts."
Hearing this, Mu Jinghua finally opened his eyes: "Where?"
Xu Shu raised his hand and whistled, then took out an oil-paper umbrella from somewhere, opened it and served it to Mu Jinghua.
Mu Jinghua felt the sky above him suddenly darken, and looked at Xu Shu in confusion: "Is it going to rain? Why are you holding an umbrella?"
"It's not rain." Xu Shu looked up at the sky, "It's something you'll like."
Mu Jinghua followed his gaze. The midday sun was so bright that he didn't like it.
Xu Shu saw through his thoughts and said softly, "Wait a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking, rain began to fall from the sky, dripping onto the ground.
Mu Jinghua was a little surprised. Just when he was about to ask Xu Shu how he knew it would rain today, he heard Xu Shu say, "Don't worry."
Mu Jinghua was confused and looked carefully at the rain in front of him.
It was quite strange that raindrops were falling even though the sun was shining brightly in the sky.
Did Xu Shu want him to see this?
Is this the gift Xu Shu gave him?
It would be better to give him the rolling pin.
Mu Jinghua was complaining in his heart, but he saw Xu Shu reaching out to catch the raindrops outside.
The raindrops hit his hands, which were as slender and well-proportioned as bamboo joints. Most of them slipped through his fingers, and those that did not slip through turned into white fluff.
It stopped on Xu Shu's hand, and soon a fine and dense layer of it fell on it.
Like goose feathers.
Also like...
Mu Jinghua looked up at the sky and suddenly realized that the drizzle had turned into white fluff without him noticing. In the blink of an eye, the blue brick floor was covered with a thin layer of white.
Like, snow.
"Is this snow?" Mu Jinghua finally realized it and looked at Xu Shu excitedly, "Really? Really?"
Xu Shu took his hand back and handed him a cup of warm tea: "It will be a little cold, warm up first before playing."
Mu Jinghua was not interested in this, he just looked at Xu Shu with bright eyes: "Really, Xu Shu, is this snow?"
"Yes." Xu Shu saw that he was like a child, forgetting everything else when he saw the snow, and couldn't help but laugh, "Do you like this year's birthday gift?"
"I like it." Mu Jinghua couldn't wait to stand up and wanted to get into the snow.
Xu Shu quickly pulled him back and handed him the cup of tea: "Drink something hot and put on your cloak."
"Cape?" Mu Jinghua took the teacup and drank it all. He looked around and couldn't see the cape. He was a little anxious. "There's no time."
He broke free of Xu Shu's hand and tried to run out again, but Xu Shu pulled him back and shouted toward the door, "Cai Die, come quickly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Caidie came over hurriedly with a cloak in her hand: "Sir, put it on quickly."
When Mu Jinghua saw the cloak, he calmed down a little. After putting it on, he looked at Xu Shu again: "Is it done? Is it done?"
His eager look was so adorable that Xu Shu wanted to tease him, so he deliberately said, "No."
Mu Jinghua's originally excited expression suddenly became dull, and even a little aggrieved: "The snow is about to stop."
Xu Shu, however, was not understanding: "Are you happy with the birthday gift I gave you?"
"I like it, I like it very much." Mu Jinghua said anxiously, looking at Xu Shu and then at the snow outside.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and there was a strong wind in the air. Xu Shu knew that it would get even heavier soon, so he stopped teasing him and said solemnly, "Mu Jinghua."
When Mu Jinghua heard him say this, he thought he was angry. His heart skipped a beat. He was about to explain that he was just too happy, but he saw Xu Shu suddenly kneeling on one knee in front of him.
Xu Shu threw away the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, took Mu Jinghua's hand, and knelt on one knee in the wind and snow.
The snow fell heavier and heavier, and soon it covered Xu Shu's long black hair, making him look a little funny.
Mu Jinghua was a little stunned, not understanding Xu Shu's actions, and called him softly. Unfortunately, the voice seemed too soft, and Xu Shu did not respond.
Instead, he took out a beautiful white jade box from his arms, opened the box and handed it to Mu Jinghua.
There was a familiar silver ring in the box, which was the ring that Qiao Wan gave to Xu Shu at that time.
Mu Jinghua couldn't recognize the ring, nor did he understand what Xu Shu was doing. He just stared at the ring and Xu Shu behind the ring in a daze.
Xu Shu didn't want to explain more.
The moment he knelt on the ground, he suddenly became impatient.
So he threw away the preparations he had made for a long time.
"Little Hibiscus, the snow and wind are too strong, there is no time to talk."
"I just want to ask."
"will you marry me?"
