Chapter 133: Don’t worry, I won’t marry you.
Chapter 133
Over the past two days it was Hua Wuyou who had been looking after Xia Miaomiao.
It was not until her eyes were completely better that Xiao Han removed the medicated eye patches.
Having not seen the light for two days, Xia Miaomiao's eyes were still not quite adjusted.
Fortunately it was nighttime now, and the candlelight in the room was not glaring.
"How is it? Any discomfort?" asked Xiao Han.
Xia Miaomiao blinked a few times, then slowly opened her eyes again, "No..."
"Good then!" Xiao Han clapped his hands and glanced at Hua Wuyou beside him, "Well then...I'll stop being a lightbulb here, you guys talk!"
After saying that, Xiao Han got up and left.
Once Xiao Han was gone, there was only Xia Miaomiao and Hua Wuyou left in the room.
Hua Wuyou did not say anything. Xia Miaomiao instinctively looked up at him and saw Hua Wuyou standing there, staring at her unblinkingly, not hiding his gaze at all.
Although it had been Hua Wuyou looking after her these past two days, she hadn't been able to see, so she didn't feel it was inappropriate.
But now seeing Hua Wuyou's face and the way he looked at her, Xia Miaomiao felt a little uncomfortable.
"Why...why are you staring at me like that..."
Hua Wuyou walked over, leaned down to look at her eyes, hooked his lips and said, "Little bunny, why is your face red?"
"My face isn't red!" Xia Miaomiao instinctively covered her cheeks with both hands and looked at Hua Wuyou indignantly.
Her appearance was adorably explosive.
Hua Wuyou paused, devastated by her adorable look. He unconsciously swallowed and immediately stood up straight, no longer looking at her.
"You...don't seduce me."
"..."
Xia Miaomiao was so embarrassed she immediately stood up and went to push him. "Ahhh, you get out, get out, I don't want to see you..."
Hua Wuyou couldn't help but laugh. Xia Miaomiao pushed him halfway to the door.
But Hua Wuyou suddenly turned around and hugged her.
Xia Miaomiao was stunned, but did not push him away.
The two just hugged quietly for a while. Hua Wuyou felt very reassured holding her, though he didn't know why.
He closed his eyes, nuzzled his chin on the top of her head, and murmured, "Miaomiao..."
Xia Miaomiao voluntarily put her arms around his waist, "Hua Wuyou, I have something to tell you..."
Hua Wuyou knew Xia Miaomiao might want to give him an answer. He released her and took her hand to the window.
"Look, the night scenery is so beautiful tonight."
Xia Miaomiao looked out the window.
The night sky was full of twinkling stars, and the moon looked like a little fishing boat sailing on the vast silver river.
"Yeah, it's so beautiful." Xia Miaomiao looked at the starry sky and smiled.
Hua Wuyou looked down at her, his eyes full of affection. "Want to get closer to them?"
"Hmm?"
Xia Miaomiao was still wondering when her body suddenly floated up. In a flash, Hua Wuyou had picked her up, jumped out of the window, and flown straight onto the roof.
"Ah..."
Xia Miaomiao exclaimed, and Hua Wuyou had already put her down on the roof.
"How about it? Isn't the view much better up here?" Hua Wuyou smiled at her.
Standing on the roof, Xia Miaomiao looked at the lights of Chu City and the starry sky. She was utterly amazed.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Xia Miaomiao smiled.
Hua Wuyou took her hand and they sat down on the roof together.
Xia Miaomiao immediately took out her phone and took a picture of the exquisite night scene.
"What's this?" Hua Wuyou was surprised to see her capture the scenery on her phone.
"This is called a cell phone. It can record beautiful scenes at any time."
Xia Miaomiao held up her phone, took a selfie of them, then flipped to the photo album and showed him. "See, these are the photos I took in Lan City and Miao Territory."
Hua Wuyou inadvertently saw her photo wearing the bunny mask, which reminded him of the first time he saw her.
"I've seen this scene before, I guess it was the first time I saw you." Hua Wuyou pointed at the photo.
Xia Miaomiao tapped on the photo, surprised. "You saw me that early? I didn't know that."
She zoomed in on the blurry figure on the roof behind her in the photo and looked at Hua Wuyou in astonishment. "Could this person be you?"
Hua Wuyou took the phone and carefully examined the figure above. He was also surprised. "Yes, it's me."
Xia Miaomiao laughed. She felt it was such a coincidence. "I didn't expect we were in the same frame so early on?"
Seeing her laugh made Hua Wuyou feel better too. He leaned on his hand on the roof, moved closer to her and teased, "Perhaps...this is fate? Little bunny, you were destined to be mine, right?"
Looking at his face up close, Xia Miaomiao's heart raced.
Her eyes fell on Hua Wuyou's lips, and she couldn't help but move closer.
A warm touch came over her. Hua Wuyou was clearly stunned.
Feeling a little shy, Xia Miaomiao just wanted to pull away after a quick peck.
But Hua Wuyou suddenly cupped her face with one hand and passionately kissed her.
He repeatedly kissed her soft lips, prying open her shell teeth with his tongue.
Hua Wuyou’s hand slid from her cheek down her fair neck and pulled her a little closer.
The passionate kisses left both their breaths somewhat chaotic.
After a long time, Hua Wuyou reluctantly released her.
His eyes were deep and tinged with desire, the blue orbs full of seductive appeal.
Xia Miaomiao’s eyes shimmered, her lips kissed red and pouty, looking very bulliable.
Hua Wuyou’s fingers inadvertently caressed her neck, his voice slightly low, "Miaomiao, marry me, okay?"
Over the past two days, Hua Wuyou had told Xia Miaomiao all about himself, including his unsavory past.
But Xia Miaomiao had not given him a clear answer.
Yet he could feel Xia Miaomiao liked him.
"Hua Wuyou...I won't marry you."
Xia Miaomiao's sudden words left Hua Wuyou's mind blank. He slowly retracted his hand, lowering his eyes. For a long time he did not say a word.
Seeing his disappointed look, Xia Miaomiao felt a little heartbroken. "I'm sorry..."
Hua Wuyou looked up at her. "Why? Just now you clearly..."
Clearly felt it too.
Xia Miaomiao looked down at the lights below. "I like you, but...I can't marry you."
"I don't understand..."
"Do you believe there are other worlds?" Xia Miaomiao suddenly asked.
"What do you mean? How could there possibly be other worlds?" Hua Wuyou did not understand.
Xia Miaomiao turned to look at him seriously. "But I'm from another world. I don't belong here, neither do my friends."
She pointed to her phone. "This thing is from our world, which is why you've never seen it before."
She flipped through her photo album to older pictures and handed it to Hua Wuyou. "This is what our world looks like, this is me in our world."
Hua Wuyou looked at the unfamiliar cities and clothing in the photos, frowning.
"We don't know why we suddenly came to your world either, but we don't belong here. I went with you to the Palace of No Worries to get the Treasure Map, because the Treasure Map is our tool to get back to our world.
We only have four months left. If we still can't find a way back after four months, we will...disappear completely."
Hua Wuyou grabbed her hand, still not fully comprehending. "But...didn't your friend get married?"
"That was her choice. I have no right to interfere, but I don't want that. I'm sorry..."
"So...you're giving up on me?"
Xia Miaomiao smiled and did not want to seem too serious. "Not entirely, if you are willing, we can date for four months! Just like...now!"
Hua Wuyou hugged her over without any hesitation. "I'm willing, I'm willing!"
