49 She Had Forgotten About Him (2/2)

Yang Yun descended the tree and headed towards the river. He took out his flask and filled them with water. Then, he turned around to where Mingyue was.

When he arrived, Mingyue was busy digging another plant from the ground. The black cat meowed when he saw him.

Mingyue looked up when she heard Xiao Mi's warning. Her lips curved into a smile. ”Yang Yun! You're back!”

”What are you doing?” Yang Yun cast a glance towards the herbs Mingyue had studied before he left.

”I found ginseng! I'm guessing that this ginseng would be a few hundred years.” Mingyue said excitedly. Finding ginseng under the fallen leaves was a miracle!

”That's good.” Yang Yun said. He took out the water flask and handed it to Mingyue. ”But first, drink some water.”

Mingyue drank the water obediently before she continued to dig the soil carefully with a trowel. After a while, she stopped to look at Yang Yun with a frown. ”Yang Yun.”

Hearing Mingyue calling his name softly, Yang Yun's lips curved into a smile. From her tone, he could guess that she had a request from him. ”What?”

Mingyue lifted her right hand. ”I love this thumb ring you gave me, but it can be inconvenient for me to dig around the soil, with this.”

Yang Yun tilted his head sideways. ”So, you don't like it?”

Jiang Mingyue frowned. It seemed that he had misunderstood her. ”That's not what I meant,” she said. ”I'm worried that the ring might slip off my thumb.” She slid off the ring from her thumb to demonstrate how easy it will be for her to lose the ring. ”Next time, find me a thread so that I can hang it around my neck. I don't want to lose this ring accidentally.”

Yang Yun laughed and nodded. ”Alright. Next time, I will find something to help you hang the ring around your neck.”
