Chapter 330 - An Amour” (1/2)
Since Mo Junyang had come to Tan Mountain, he didn’t plan to leave.
He and Shi Qingxue expressed their love to each other, and they were willing to stay together, wishing to be like conjoined twins. How would he leave?
Not to mention leaving Tan Mountain, Mo Junyang didn’t want to leave Shi Qingxue’s bedroom even at night.
Although they were an engaged couple, they were unmarried, so they couldn’t live together.
Therefore, Mo Junyang restrained himself and chose a room next to Shi Qingxue’s bedroom.
His bed was next to the wall, and the other side of the wall was next to Shi Qingxue’s bed.
They were separated by only a wall.
However, at bedtime, Mo Junyang had to return to his room.
He sat at the table and looked at the big bed in a daze, as if he had X-ray eyes and could see what Shi Qingxue was doing through the wall.
What was Qingxue doing?
Had she blown out the lamp?
Had she gone to bed?
Was she asleep?
Was she…missing him, too?
The trifling thoughts circled around his brain, like poisonous snakes pestering him, making him incurable, unable to get rid of them.
Gee!
Mo Junyang sprang from his seat and then opened the door, walking out.
He found that the light in the next-door room was out, so his desirous heart finally calmed down a bit, but he was still restless and couldn’t fall asleep.
Mo Junyang gave up the plan to knock at Qingxue’s room door and jumped up to the eave opposite to him, regardless of the light snow falling outside.
He wiped away the snow and sat in the open space, facing Shi Qingxue’s dark room.
It was silent around at midnight, as if only Mo Junyang were left in the huge world.
There was nothing but the strong wind and snow in his ears.
Even though Mo Junyang was iron-willed, he wouldn’t be in high spirits in such an environment.
He just sat quietly and stared at Shi Qingxue’s room.
Although he could see nothing, when he merely looked at it in this way, he could relax seemingly.
Mo Junyang didn’t know how long he had been sitting on the roof. He couldn’t notice time passing or feel cold but just sat there.
His eyes were blank, and he let his mind drift away.
In fact, he didn’t think about anything, yet he needed a place to calm his restless mind.
He was like this till a creak was heard.
Shi Qingxue’s room door was opened.
She stood at the door, and as soon as she raised her head, she met Mo Junyang’s eyes.
Both of them were stunned.
Mo Junyang thought that there was something wrong with Shi Qingxue, so he hurriedly flew to her from the roof. “What’s the matter?”
“What’s wrong with you?” Shi Qingxue stared at him and frowned.
He didn’t sleep at midnight but stayed on the roof in the cold wind. He was so romantic.
Shi Qingxue got angrier while thinking. No matter what reasons Mo Junyang had, she was in a rage.
Mo Junyang looked away with guilt rarely and lowered his head in silence.
Shi Qingxue was speechless.
Only in an instant, she stopped being angry because of Mo Junyang’s action to show the white feather.
“It’s cold outside. Come in first.” Shi Qingxue sighed and gave up her plan to rebuke him. Then she pulled him into the room.
Even though Mo Junyang was in good health and almost had never got sick, he couldn’t mistreat himself in this way.
He had been on a journey for several days successively in the blizzard, and now he even enjoyed the wind on the roof at midnight. Even an ironman couldn’t stand it.
Fortunately, Mo Junyang didn’t forget to put on his thick and big coat. Otherwise, Shi Qingxue would be irritated by him to death.
She lit the oil lamp and then put the warmer kettle in Mo Junyang’s arms before pouring him a cup of hot tea.
She watched Mo Junyang finish drinking the cup of hot tea and then started to interrogate, “You didn’t sleep at midnight. What were you doing on the roof?”
“Nothing. I…” Mo Junyang tried to find excuses randomly, but before he spoke out the excuse, he held it back under Shi Qingxue’s “murderous” glare.
He stayed silent for a long time and gave up the plan to hide it from her in the end. “I can’t fall asleep.”
Mo Junyang’s wish of many years had come true. Even though Shi Qingxue hadn’t married him, it was enough for him to be over the moon.
Mo Junyang tried hard to restrain himself before he could maintain his composure on the surface, so he wouldn’t be like a madman who had a windfall and went crazy.
He didn’t want to restrain himself at all.
Mo Junyang had the same feeling as all the stingy misers’ in the world and just wanted to hide his treasure.
He wanted to hold Shi Qingxue in his arms and hug her all the time.
She was his, and her heart was his. He wouldn’t give her to anybody who wanted her.
But…he couldn’t do it!
He couldn’t frighten Shi Qingxue, so he had to control himself.
Shi Qingxue looked at Mo Junyang. The man still looked calm as always, and the ordinary people couldn’t find anything unusual, while she showed an expression, as if lost in thought.
After a while, she suddenly chuckled. “What a coincidence. I can’t, either.”
Mo Junyang paused for a moment and suddenly raised his head, gazing at Shi Qingxue.
He was like a fierce beast which found the only delicious prey in winter and wanted to swallow it at one gulp but hesitated and didn’t do anything.
If it swallowed the prey, it would have no more.
His eyes lit up, and even the starlight was dimmer than them, yet there was hesitation which could hardly be noticed in his eyes.
Shi Qingxue saw it and then smiled. She grabbed Mo Junyang’s hand and said more straightforwardly, “I also miss you so much that I can’t fall asleep.”
Mo Junyang felt dizzy.
There was no word which could soften Mo Junyang’s hard heart more than these.
It turned out that he didn’t fall in an unrequited love with her.
His beloved woman, his Qingxue loved him, too.
Mo Junyang didn’t need to worry about if she loved him anymore.
He excitedly hugged Shi Qingxue and fixed her in his arms.
