The new year this time approached late, and it was already the arrival of spring before the new year.

During the first month of the lunar calendar, it was already a good time for the winter season to come to a close.

On the mountain during the early spring, there was still a chill.

The snow on the top of the mountain had yet to melt, and along the way, one could see a jade belt surrounding the green mountains.

The thin layer of ice on the stream water would be broken with a light poke of a branch. Under the layer of ice, one could occasionally see one or two small fish swimming past.

Such a place with beautiful mountains and clear water was far away from the noisy hustle and bustle of the city. Breathing in the fresh air in such heaven and earth made people feel much more relaxed.

The road up the mountain was very long, and it had been a long time since they had such a relaxed stroll.

Xiao Nanye turned his head to look at the person next to him. He looked at her who was sighing in surprise from time to time, and he suddenly felt that sometimes taking some time out to walk around was also a good choice.

Just like just now, when he acted on a whim, he pulled her along to climb the mountain.

Su Mo had not come out for a long time to relax. She was very excited along the way. When she was about to reach the top of the mountain, she pointed at the cedar at the edge of the cliff in the distance and said, "Xiao Nanye, look over there! It's amazing!"

"Are you kidding me?" Xiao Nanye glanced at the place which she pointed at and turned to look at her.

He thought to himself, "It is just a tree. Why is it so amazing?"

The smile on her face suddenly froze. Su Mo looked at Xiao Nanye with dissatisfaction. "You're not competent. It was you who took me out to relax."

When she was brought out just now, she thought she was going home. She even said that they need to say goodbye to his grandfather. Unexpectedly, Xiao Nanye said that if she wanted to go home, she had to at least meet his Second Uncle.

Su Mo's mood plummeted. She pouted and said, "Why did you bring me out instead of going home?"

When Xiao Nanye saw that she was unhappy, he rubbed her hair and said, "I just took you out to relax."

Su Mo thought to herself, "You said that we were here to relax, but you are so insensitive. You did not say a word along the way and you even mocked me when I took the initiative to talk to you.

"Seriously?

"Do you think I am a monkey invited for teasing?"

Su Mo drew circles in her heart to curse him silently, thinking to herself, "Xiao Nanye, you boring idiot!"

Xiao Nanye saw the expression on her face and knew that she must be cursing him in her heart again. He thought that she was getting smarter now since she knew that if she said it, her butt would suffer.

Little did she know that she was a person who could not hide things, and her eyes had already betrayed the thoughts in her heart.

Xiao Nanye thought to himself, "This woman knows how to take a yard after getting an inch. She knows that the more I dote on her, the more unruly she could be. She actually dared to say that I was incompetent!"

Xiao Nanye seemed to reflect on himself for a moment, "You don't like this place? Then, let's go back." After that, he turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing that he was about to go down the mountain, Su Mo quickly pulled him back and called his name in exasperation, "Xiao Nanye!"

She clearly did not mean that. Since he was so smart, she thought he must have deliberately misinterpreted her meaning.

"Xiao Nanye, you did it on purpose." Su Mo glared at him.

"Alright, I did it on purpose." Young Master Xiao had always been honest, and the corners of his mouth curled into an evil smile.

He turned his head to look at her, "So? Do you still want to go to the top of the mountain to see the scenery?"

"Yes!"

Su Mo was afraid that he would go back on his word, so she didn't care about being angry anymore. She took his hand and said, "Let's go quickly, or the sun will set when it's too late."

The person who was pulled by her didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He looked up at the sun that had just risen.

He thought to himself, "How could someone be stupid to this extent?"

Young Master Xiao was puzzled.

When they reached the top of the mountain, the scenery was completely different from what they saw on the road.

When they stepped up to the highest peak, all the mountains below would be seen as insignificant.

Standing here and looking down, they could see the fertile fields in the distance, the straight roads at the foot of the mountain, and some further places where the scenery was not clear.

Looking toward the distance, at this moment, Su Mo felt as if the entire world was in front of her eyes, which gave her a deeper sense of awe toward nature.

Su Mo opened her arms and felt the wind blowing on her face under the cliff with a bone-piercing coldness. She exclaimed that this was the feeling of standing in a high place!

"Xiao Nanye, this place is really beautiful!"

It could be seen that Su Mo was really happy. She took out her phone to take photos. Sometimes, she took photos of the scenery. Sometimes, she took photos of the person who accidentally entered the scenery.

She felt that it was also her scenery.

Ever since he was sixteen years old, Young Master Xiao rarely took photos. Sometimes, his photos appeared in newspapers and magazines because of his work needs.

Xiao Nanye thought to himself, "That woman still thought how smart she was. Did she think I didn't know that she was secretly taking photos?"

Xiao Nanye shook his head and walked over. He took her phone. Su Mo was so scared that she hurriedly tried to save the phone. She hugged his arm and begged, "Your Majesty, please let me go."

Xiao Nanye thought to himself, "Beg for mercy?

"Let go of the photos on the phone?

"She thought that I was bored enough to come and delete her photos?

"Yes, it was indeed very boring. I was so bored that I took the initiative to come over and wanted to help her take a photo."

Young Master Xiao gritted his teeth coldly. He thought this woman had the potential to drive him crazy.

At this point, it was impossible for him to say anything to help her take photos. Xiao Nanye put her phone into the pocket of his coat and said, "Go down the mountain."

Su Mo thought to herself, "We have just come up, and we are going down the mountain so quickly?"

Su Mo couldn't care about the photos. She chased after him and said, "Xiao Nanye, wait a little longer! Just a little longer!"

Young Master Xiao looked at her frozen red cheeks and reached out to raise the collar of her clothes. "The wind is strong on the mountain. You are still sick and you can't stand the wind."

Su Mo thought to herself, "You know I can't stand the wind, yet you still brought me here!"

Su Mo complained about him in her heart, "Young Master Xiao, you must be kidding!"

As soon as she finished cursing, she heard Xiao Nanye say, "We'll come back when you get better."

Therefore, Su Mo's angry little eyes immediately turned into starry eyes. She was looking at him and repenting, shooting hearts out of her eyes. She thought to herself, "Xiao Nanye, I should not have misunderstood you."

When they went down the mountain, Su Mo accidentally slipped on a branch and sprained her foot because she did not look at the road under her feet.

"Su Mo, you can be a little more stupid!"

Young Master Xiao's face darkened. He looked at the woman who had done something wrong with a wronged expression. He thought that there would definitely be no woman more troublesome than her in this world.

"Come up." Xiao Nanye bent his noble waist.

When Xiao Nanye squatted down to carry her, Su Mo's nose was sour and her eyes were full of mist. This familiar scene reminded her of the first time she climbed the mountain many years ago.

She remembered that it was in high school when her school organized the students to climb the mountain.

At that time, Lin Jinyao was the president of the student union. Naturally, he could not miss this kind of collective activity. Therefore, as the “family” of the president of the student union, Su Mo also followed him.

It was autumn at that time, and the mountain was not so high. Everyone else was in high spirits, traveling all the way through the mountains and playing with water, but Su Mo was extremely tired. She had only climbed halfway up the mountain when she was already exhausted.

Everyone else had gone far away, and only she was still at the end of the team. At that time, Lin Jinyao would always be by her side.

The two of them were the last to reach the top of the mountain. When they got there, Su Mo sat limply on the ground. She felt that her legs were no longer hers, and she could not raise her spirits at all, let alone admire the scenery at the top of the mountain.

At that time, Su Mo was still a willful little princess. She had a gentle prince by her side to protect her, so she was even more spoiled.

When it was time to go down the mountain, everyone had packed up and left. Only she refused to leave no matter what. She insisted on staying on the mountain to watch the stars. No matter how Lin Jinyao tried to persuade her, it was useless.

Once Princess Momo wanted to do something, she was absolutely impossible to give up halfway. Lin Jinyao doted on her and could only follow her nonsense.

So, in the end, everyone left, leaving only the two of them on the entire mountain peak.

Her idea was good, but it was a pity that the heavens did not grant her wish. Until the end, Su Mo could not see the stars.

In the evening, it began to rain.

At first, it was just a drizzle, but the raindrop slowly became as big as the size of a soybean.

The rain was urgent and dense. It hit her face with a pitter-patter sound. It was cold and somewhat painful. With a light breath, she could smell the scent of rain washing the soil.

That smell was something that she would never forget for the rest of her life.

The weather on the mountain was changing rapidly. To prevent danger when going down the mountain since the rain was getting heavier and heavier, this time, Lin Jinyao was very persistent in going down the mountain.

However, Su Mo was too willful at that time. She wanted to see the stars and refused to leave if she could not see the stars. Lin Jinyao had no choice but to carry her down the mountain step by step.

Fortunately, the weather in the mountains was unpredictable. The rain came and went quickly, and it stopped halfway.

The sky was blue after being washed by rain, and a rainbow appeared on the distant horizon.

But at that time, their clothes were also drenched by the rain. They were wet and stuck to their bodies. It was very uncomfortable. Su Mo had been throwing a tantrum all the way and did not have the heart to appreciate the scenery at all.

Later, Su Mo thought more than once that it would be great if she could never finish the road down the mountain. In that case, Lin Jinyao could always carry her on his back.

Unfortunately, there was always an end to the road, and no one would know what was at the end of the road.

A long time later, Su Mo occasionally thought of what happened that time and felt a little regretful.

If she had not been so willful back then, if she had been able to obediently stay by his side, she would not have missed that beautiful scenery.

After she left the country, she never had the chance to walk that road with him again, nor had she seen such beautiful scenery.

She thought to herself, "Brother Jin, how are you doing now?"

She had always thought that they would be together. Before she turned eighteen, she had never doubted it.

At this time, similarly, it was on the way down the mountain, and someone carried her on his back, but now, Su Mo had grown up and become sensible.

She thought that she finally did not miss out on her scenery this time.

She wrapped her arms around Xiao Nanye's neck, thinking that even if they walked through this road, she was not afraid anymore, because they still had more roads to walk together in the future and more scenery to see.

Su Mo thought to herself, "Oh right, I want to take a lot of photos and make them into albums.

"Then, one day, when we are both getting old and could no longer walk, we could flip through the previous albums and count these endless memories under the starry night sky."

It turned out that she had already thought of the future and wanted to have him participate in her life every day in the future. She wanted to gaze at the roiling clouds with him and slowly grow old together.

Lying on Xiao Nanye's back, Su Mo thought a lot.

When she walked on the streets of a foreign country, many times, she had the urge to return to this city regardless of everything. However, she had never been able to find a reason to return.

But now, she finally had a reason to stay.
