Chapter 288 It’s fun when it snows

Since she was little, she liked the scene in winter when the ground, houses, flowers, and trees were covered with a thick layer of snow, and the sky was dotted with snowflakes. However, although it was very cold in winter at home, it rarely snowed, and even if it snowed, it would not accumulate such a thick layer.

She ran out, holding up her skirt, laughing as she ran. Shi Yuan, who was behind her, called out to her as she walked away, and followed her.

……

After finishing his work in the Experience Hall, Mo Xinglan walked out on the corridor, covering his lips and coughing uncomfortably a few times.

"Your Highness!"

"Owner!"

Fang Hao, who was following behind him, walked forward worriedly when he saw this, and subconsciously reached out his hand but did not dare to touch him.

Chi Feng, who was standing on Fang Hao's shoulders, expressed his concern in unison.

Mo Xinglan held onto a column beside him and raised his hand to stop them.

After a while, the girl's cheerful laughter like a bell reached my eardrums.

He looked up and saw the girl holding up her skirt and jumping around in the snow like a little rabbit, shaking off the snowflakes that had finally landed on her body.

The red cloak looked particularly bright against the snow-white surroundings, fluttering up and down as the girl jumped and skipped.

The surrounding trees, which should have lost all their leaves due to the coming of winter and are now covered with snow, are more vibrant because of this touch of dancing red.

A few scattered snowflakes fell into his sight, making the girl not far away look hazy and beautiful, making him stand there in a daze.

Even Fang Hao and Chi Feng, who were standing beside him, looked a little dazed.

However, Chi Feng quickly came to his senses. After all, he had spent a long time with Chu Jiu and knew what kind of person she was. When he thought of her original character, the filter in front of him was immediately shattered.

Then it looked at Fang Hao who was still in a daze, raised its wings and hit Fang Hao's head.

Fang Hao came back to his senses, holding his head in pain and glaring at it. Just as he was about to scold Chi Feng, Chi Feng's unruly voice rang in his mind: "Fool, don't blame me for not reminding you. If you look at it again, your eyeballs will be lost."

"Tsk, what do you care?" He sent a voice message back. But he still glanced at Mo Xinglan cautiously.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she found that he wasn't looking at her, and didn't dare to look at the bright red in the distance.

Chi Feng has been with Mo Xinglan for a longer time and knows Mo Xinglan better, which is why he listens to Chi Feng.

Moreover, he felt that the little lord before him was very different from the first lord except for his appearance.

The first lord was dignified and serious in front of others, but in private he was very affectionate and lively. He had followed the first lord for more than 300 years and had a deep understanding of this. In addition, the first lord treated him and his elder sister as his younger brother and younger sister in private, so he and his elder sister naturally regarded the first lord as their only relative in the world.

In the one or two days he spent with the little lord, he found that the little lord seemed to be neither hot nor cold. He seemed to be easy to talk to, but he always gave people the feeling that he would be beaten to death if he said something that made him unhappy. The little lord would smile from time to time, but the smile did not reach his eyes, and was always cold. Even though he had lived for more than three hundred years and had seen a lot of worldly affairs, he felt cold in his heart when he saw the little lord's smile.

The little lord was too scary, not as gentle as the first lord. But the little lord was the only one who was particularly kind to the little human girl. Just like now, that gentle smile on his face only appeared when he saw the little human girl.

At this time, the cheerful voice of a girl was heard over there.

"Haha, Shiyuan, Shiyuan, come here quickly."

Chujiu stood under a tree covered with snow and waved to Shiyuan, who was standing beside her and shouting at her nervously to slow down and be careful.

Shi Yuan sighed a little tiredly and walked over: "Miss Chu, what do you want to do now?"

She was teased several times along the way.

Miss Chu is really full of energy. She is not tired even after playing outside for such a long time.

Chujiu pulled Shiyuan over and said, "Hey, don't look so sad. People don't have much happiness in life. When it's time to play, you should have fun boldly. You should smile more now."

Then she held Shiyuan's arms and asked her to stand next to the tree: "Come, come, let me show you a snow-filled sky."

"Snow flying all over the sky?" Shi Yuan tilted his head in confusion.

"Yes, yes." Chujiu nodded, raised the corners of his mouth calmly, and quickly pointed to the sky, "Look at the sky."

After hearing this, Shi Yuan subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Chujiu's mouth curled deeper, and she took the opportunity to quickly reach out and shake the tree trunk, and then she swooped away from the tree. Even so, she was hit on the head by snow, but she didn't care at all.

The overwhelming snow over there hit Shiyuan's face. Shiyuan's head was instantly confused and he stood there motionless like an ice sculpture.

“Hahaha…” Chujiu stood a little distance away, holding his stomach and laughing.

Shi Yuan finally came to his senses and realized that he had been tricked by Miss Chu again.

Even though she was a professionally trained maid, she was still a girl, not much older than Chujiu. It was natural that she felt unbalanced after being fooled again.

She raised her hand to wipe the snow off her face, glared at Chujiu angrily, and stamped her feet: "Miss Chu, you are playing tricks on me again."

Seeing that she was angry, Chujiu suppressed his laughter and apologized, "Okay, okay, I was wrong."

Although he said so, there was no sign of admitting his fault on his face. Instead, it was obvious that he was gloating over someone else's misfortune.

"Cough." A light cough interrupted the two girls' playfulness.

Shi Yuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted. He adjusted his demeanor and bowed to the person who came over: "My Lord."

Then he looked at Fang Hao, who was a few steps behind Mo Xinglan, and walked over to stand beside him.

Chujiu was also stunned when she saw Mo Xinglan. She glanced sideways and saw a young man standing not far away looking at her with gentle eyes.

A light moon-white robe fluttered in the breeze, and half of his black hair was draped over his body.

"Xingxing." Chujiu shouted at him and ran towards him with her skirt lifted up.

When she got in front of him, she braked suddenly and stopped. Then she stretched out her arms and gently put them around his waist, then looked up and grinned at him.

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, brushed away the snowflakes on her head and shoulders, held her face, lowered his head and pecked her moist lips: "Why did you run out instead of staying in the house?"

"Let's play, hehe." She tilted her head with a smile.

"Play?" Thinking of her jumping on the snow just now, he looked around at the white snow, "What's fun in the snow?"

"It's fun when it snows. It's most fun when it's snowing lightly like this and the ground is covered with a thick layer of snow." She tilted her head and looked around.

"Do you like snowy days?"

"Ah."

"..."

After hearing her answer without hesitation, Mo Xinglan fell silent.

Seeing that he had a sullen face and didn't speak, Chujiu tilted his head and said, "Don't you like snow?"
