Mu Xiaowan raised her chin. “My boyfriend must be handsome and rich. At the same time, the most important condition is that he must be kind!”
“Am I not kind?” Yang Guang said with a bitter smile.
“Do you think you’re kind?”
Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes at him and said in a bad mood, “Ever since I met you, I’ve been very unlucky!”
“It’s not that you’re unlucky, it’s that we’re destined. That’s why you’ve been experiencing intimate encounters!” Yang Guang said seriously as he rubbed his walnuts.
Mu Xiaowan looked at him and suddenly gritted her teeth. “If you keep talking like that, I’ll slap you to death!”
“I’m not a fly!”
Yang Guang rolled his eyes at her. Seeing that the beauty was about to explode, he quickly smiled and said, “Alright! Alright! I would stop. We’ve known each other for so long, why are you always angry? You’re not cute anymore!”
Mu Xiaowan was stunned when she heard this, and half of her anger was instantly extinguished.
Then, she put away her anger and said helplessly, “Please, I’ve known you for less than two days. Please don’t act like you know me!”
“But I feel like I’ve known you for a long time. It’s like I’ve dreamed of you before!” Yang Guang said.
“Stop it. Your pickup skills are too bad. No girl would believe such words!”
Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes. Then, she saw that Yang Guang had already rubbed out several walnuts the size of ping-pong balls. She quickly took and pinched them.
Even though her face was flushed red, she still couldn’t crack one open. Yang Guang couldn’t help but laugh. “Idiot, can’t you just smash it with a stone?”
Mu Xiaowan ignored the fact that he said she was an idiot. She asked with a puzzled look, “That’s not right. When I ate walnuts in the past, they were all crushed with just a pinch!”
“That’s a processed plant variety. This wild one is very hard!”
Yang Guang expressed his regret at her common sense. He turned around and took a stone. He placed the walnut on the stone slab and smashed it twice.
The kernel of this wild walnut was actually not big, so when she saw the tender white kernel inside, Mu Xiaowan was immediately disappointed!
“What? This is too small. It can actually be eaten?”
Yang Guang looked at her. “Not only can it be eaten, but it also tastes very good. If you don’t believe me, you’ll know after you try it!”
He took out the newly formed kernel that had not reached the ripening stage and handed it to Mu Xiaowan.
Mu Xiaowan took it in her hand and looked at the crystal clear walnut. She seemed to have smelled a refreshing fragrance from the tip of her nose. She could not resist and directly put it into her mouth.
Then, she chewed it and her eyes widened. “My goodness, it’s so sweet!”
“Of course. After it’s fully ripe, you can keep it for winter. By then, the walnuts will have solidified and dried. They will taste like candied fruit!” Yang Guang said proudly.
“Quick, open a few more for me. The taste is very special. The fragrance of the walnuts is very strong!” Mu Xiaowan said quickly.
Yang Guang was naturally happy to serve the beauty. He nodded and smashed a few more walnuts.
While Mu Xiaowan was eating the walnuts, he began to rub the other peels. The two of them worked together happily.
However, after eating five or six walnuts, Mu Xiaowan suddenly said, “That’s enough. Keep the rest. Go back and give them to Yaya!”
“Yo, you still miss her?”
Yang Guang looked at her in surprise.
Mu Xiaowan pouted. “What’s wrong with that? The little girl is fat and chubby. She’s too cute. Can’t you leave some delicious food for her?”
“It’s not that I can’t, but I didn’t expect you to be so caring!”
Yang Guang smiled, stood up and said, “Unfortunately, I didn’t bring my basket with me, so I can only use my clothes to wrap the walnuts!”
After saying that, he didn’t even look at Mu Xiaowan, and directly took off his jacket.
Only a vest was left inside, and the muscles on his shoulders, neck, and back were exposed.
Yang Guang lowered his head to pick up the walnuts, completely unaware that Mu Xiaowan’s eyes were already straight, and she even secretly swallowed her saliva!
After tidying up, he turned around. “Have you had enough fun? Can we go home now?”
“It’s still too early!”
Mu Xiaowan rolled her eyes and looked at the surrounding mountains and trees. “There’s only walnuts in the mountains. Nothing else is delicious?”
“How is that possible?”
Yang Guang shrugged. “There are a lot of delicious things in the mountains!”
“Really? Then I want to see if you’re bragging or not!” Mu Xiaowan said.
“Those who brag are puppies!”
Yang Guang glared at her and threw the walnuts that were wrapped in his jacket to her. “Follow me into the forest. I’ll show you what it means to be rich in natural resources!”
“Okay!”
Mu Xiaowan’s trick succeeded. She immediately laughed and stood up.
Then, the two of them walked deeper into the mountains and entered a relatively dense primitive forest.
The crowns of the tree above them blotted out the sky and the sun, so not even weeds grew under the tree. There were thick fallen leaves everywhere.
The surroundings were silent. Only the rustling footsteps of the two of them could be heard. After walking for a while, Yang Guang suddenly turned his head, he looked straight at Mu Xiaowan. “You’re really bold. You actually dared to follow me into such a deep forest. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll take advantage of the fact that there’s no one around and do something to you?”
“…”
Mu Xiaowan stopped in her tracks. Panic could be seen in her eyes, then, she forced herself to raise her chin. “Bah, I don’t believe that you dare to do that. Sister Yingxue knows that I followed you into the mountain. Even if you harmed me, she would look for you and interrogate you!”
“Uh, you believe what I said?”
Yang Guang rolled his eyes and immediately turned around to continue walking forward. “How boring!”
“Who asked you to make such a joke!”
Mu Xiaowan glared at his back and was dumbfounded.
After walking for a short distance, Yang Guang squatted down and groped for a while among the fallen leaves. Then, he used his fingers to dig.
Mu Xiaowan walked over and asked curiously, “What are you digging for? Bamboo shoots?”
“Sister, where could you find bamboo here?”
Yang Guang was speechless. He raised his head and looked at her. Then he said in a bad mood, “I found pine mushrooms!”
“Ah?”
Mu Xiaowan’s eyes widened. Of course, she knew what pine mushrooms were. They were rare and precious fungi. They were very expensive!
She squatted down and watched Yang Guang carefully dig. Mu Xiaowan swallowed her saliva. “Is it really pine mushrooms?”
“You’ll know when it’s dug out later!”
Yang Guang lowered his head. After some time, he chuckled. “Don’t be shy later!”
“Shy about what?”
Mu Xiaowan was confused. She didn’t understand what the joke was.
Carefully separating the soil, he found the root of the pine mushroom bit by bit. Then, Yang Guang exerted some force, and the entire pine mushroom was dug out.
Holding it in his palm, he handed it to Mu Xiaowan. “You must have seen the mushroom before, right? Take a look.”
“Sure enough!”
Mu Xiaowan took it, her face was full of surprise.
However, when she touched the pine mushroom, she found that Yang Guang was laughing evilly. After being stunned for a moment, she looked at the long dark red mushroom in her hand.. Mu Xiaowan immediately came to a realization, and her face instantly turned red!
