Grandma Ye looked at the slammed door and started to shout out a series of curses. Ye Xuan turned around and left. He did not want to listen or watch his grandmother speaking and behaving unreasonably.

After she felt like she had scolded enough, Grandma Ye and Ye Lanlan went home. They didn’t even go to find Ye Mo and the others. After Liu Duo returned to the bedroom, she continued to do yoga. What had just happened did not affect her mood at all.

When it was about time to do so, Liu Duo went to the kitchen to boil water to prepare for a bath. Her body was sticky from the sweat, and it was really uncomfortable.

Liu Duo took the flint and tried to light a fire. She tried for a long time and the fire only lit once she had started to sweat again.

“It’s finally lit. I almost went crazy.” She wiped the sweat from her forehead and then started to replenish the firewood and boiled the water.

After she finished bathing, Liu Duo began to prepare dinner. She was preparing to make dumplings. She started by chopping the vegetables and making the fillings. She then used the coarse powder to make the dumpling skin. She made thirty each for Ye Mo and Ye Ling and made fifteen for herself.

The dumplings that were filled were placed on a plate. She wanted to wait until they got home before cooking them. She cleaned the kitchen stove, closed the yard door, and then went out for a walk.

Liu Duo felt that it was especially quiet while she walked on the road by herself. Ye Liu was not there to tease her and take advantage of her. Why did it feel like something was missing?

She stood beneath a big tree and looked at the people far away who were busy working in the paddy and vegetable fields. Her heart was especially calm.

She saw a woman who was pregnant but was still working in a vegetable field. Liu Duo muttered, “She is already very pregnant but is still doing farm work. She is quite awesome!”

She stole a few more glances at the woman and then turned around to continue looking at the village’s scenery.

Ye Mo looked at the color of the sky, and it appeared to be around six o’clock. Ye Mo said, “Ling, it’s about time to go home. We will come back tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Ye Ling nodded and followed Ye Mo up to dry land to prepare to go home.

Li Chunmei saw that Ye Mo and Ye Ling were about to go home, and she immediately also prepared to go home. She became very happy when she saw Liu Duo hadn’t come in the afternoon. She wouldn’t need to look at her.

“Big Brother Mo, wait for me.”

Ye Mo turned around and look at her. “Do you need something?”

“Nothing. I’m also about to go home and just wanted to make it more lively.” Li Chunmei smiled and said very naturally.

Ye Mo didn’t respond and continued to walk coolly when he heard her. Ye Ling glanced at Li Chunmei. She was quietly walking beside Ye Mo. He always felt that Li Chunmei was interested in Ye Mo, but he wasn’t sure.

Ye Ling lifted his head and looked at Ye Mo. He saw that his handsome face was expressionless, and it looked so cool. He thought, Has Mo noticed Chunmei’s interest in him? Or am I wrong and she only wants to walk with us?”

Ye Ling’s face turned blank when he thought of this. He could not figure it out.

“Ling.” Liu Duo immediately shouted when she saw them at the crossroads. She stood there and waited for them to come over.

Li Chunmei’s smile disappeared when she saw Liu Duo. She said to Ye Mo, “Big Brother Mo, I’ll leave first,” and then walked away from them.

She didn’t want to face Liu Duo. She felt that even though Liu Duo smiled when she looked at her, the smile felt very fierce and imposing. It made her feel a bit scared.

When they were closer, Liu Duo laughed, “Ling, what’s on your mind? When I saw you just now, you seemed to have a lot on your mind.”

“I wasn’t thinking about anything. What’s there for me to think of? Let’s go home.” Ye Ling hid his gaze. How could he dare to say that he was thinking about whether or not Chunmei liked Mo? He wasn’t even sure himself, so he didn’t dare to make any irresponsible remarks.

Ye Ling hoped that it wasn’t true. Even if it were true, he believed Ye Mo wouldn’t betray Liu Duo and also wouldn’t betray the oath that the four of them had taken.
