Xu Ling was completely unprepared. By the time she snapped back to reality, Yang Guang had already kissed her on the forehead!
She raised her head in shock and saw his burning gaze. Xu Ling panicked and quickly lowered her head. “What are you doing!?”
Her tone was coquettish and didn’t have the slightest hint of anger. There was even a hint of elation!
Yang Guang had taken advantage of her, but he didn’t continue. Instead, he reached out and hugged her shoulder.
Xu Ling struggled slightly. Seeing that he was hugging her very tightly, she didn’t resist and simply let him hug her.
Yang Guang was overcome with delight. Although he didn’t say it out loud, it was very obvious that he had already obtained the heart of the beautiful village chief!
The two young people leaned against each other in the water. In front of them was a raging forest fire. However, the nervousness from before had completely disappeared. It was as if this fire just complemented their current happy mood.
Time passed minute by minute. Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from the sky. One could tell that it was an airplane!
However, the terrain here was narrow. They were already deep in the valley. Behind them was a mountain peak, and in front of them was a burning field filled with thick smoke. Hence, they couldn’t see the airplane at all.
However, very soon, when white powder poured down from the sky. Yang Guang and Xu Ling knew that a fire brigade had come to put out the fire!
“I told you, it’s a blessing in disguise. We’ll definitely be fine!” Yang Guang said excitedly
A large amount of white powder fell and stopped the fire.
Xu Ling also heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she nodded. “We’re fine now.”
Yang Guang looked at her and didn’t say anything.
Xu Ling blushed from being looked at. She couldn’t help but say coquettishly, “Why are you looking at me?”
“Can we be considered to have gone through thick and thin together?” Yang Guang asked.
“You can say that. I was really scared to death just now. Fortunately, it was JUST a close call,” Xu Ling said.
“Then when we get out, you…”
Yang Guang’s mouth was a little dry, and his heart was racing. So, he quickly picked up a mouthful of water from the pond and took a gulp.
Xu Ling was stunned and said in surprise, “We’ve soaked in this water, so don’t you think it’s dirty?”
“Don’t interrupt me!”
Yang Guang hugged her shoulders. “When we get out, can you be my girlfriend?”
“Huh?”
Xu Ling’s eyes widened!
Although she had a premonition that he was going to say something important, she still found it hard to believe when she heard it with her own ears.
Seeing Yang Guang looking straight at her, Xu Ling lowered her head and said in a low voice, “Uh…”
“You don’t like me?” Seeing her expression, Yang Guang asked.
“No, it’s not that…”
Xu Ling shook her head and looked up at him with a blush. “But now isn’t the time. Can you give me some time?”
“Why?” The two of them sat together for a long time. Feeling that her body was trembling nervously, Yang Guang asked in puzzlement.
“There are some things that you don’t understand. I… I need some time!” Xu Ling’s eyes flickered as she said.
When he saw this, Yang Guang thought that she didn’t like him, so she was looking for an excuse to turn him down.
Therefore, his face fell. He forced a smile and said, “Okay, I understand.”
After saying that, he let go of her hand and stopped hugging her.
“It’s not what you think!”
Xu Ling panicked and reached out to grab his arm. In a moment of desperation, she raised her head and kissed Yang Guang on the cheek!
Following that, she blushed even more and she quickly lowered her head.
This time, Yang Guang was a little confused.
A beautiful girl taking the initiative to kiss him already showed her feelings very clearly, but why did she still want to wait?
His previously elated mood was instantly replaced with confusion.
With both hands supporting Xu Ling’s shoulders, Yang Guang asked, “What exactly is the reason?”
“Don’t ask. I’ll tell you when the time comes,” Xu Ling said and broke free from his grasp. She stood up from the water and headed to the shore.
Looking at her drenched body and the clothes on her body sticking to her skin, Yang Guang was in no mood to admire her beautiful figure.
Xu Ling even took off her coat and pants to dry the clothes, but he still wasn’t in the mood to look at her figure.
The aircraft was very efficient in extinguishing the fire. The fire in the forest was already under control, but the heat wave was still there. Therefore, even though they were more than ten meters apart, steam was still rising from the soaked clothes.
Xu Ling sat on a rock and hugged her knees. She stared at the clothes in a daze. Yang Guang looked at her in the water and suddenly felt his heart ache.
This girl obviously had something on her mind, but she couldn’t tell him. Perhaps she had her own difficulties?
Thinking of this, Yang Guang stood up from the water, then dragged his wet body to Xu Ling and squatted down.
While Xu Ling was confused, Yang Guang had already helped her take off her shoes. “Dry this too. Otherwise, you won’t be comfortable when you walk after getting out.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Xu Ling’s smile was forced, but she didn’t move and let him help her take off her shoes and socks.
After Yang Guang was done drying them, Xu Ling said, “Dry your clothes too. Wearing wet clothes makes it easy to catch a cold.”
“Okay.”
Yang Guang also took off his coat, leaving only a pair of boxer shorts.
While waiting for the clothes to dry, Xu Ling asked nonchalantly, “Sister-in-law is at home. She must be very anxious, right?”
“She should be, but my sister-in-law definitely won’t believe that something will happen to us. She is definitely waiting for us!” Yang Guang said.
Xu Ling stared blankly at the distant forest that had been burned to ashes. She didn’t say anything else.
The originally serene atmosphere, because of her worries, was ruined and the two of them were at a loss for words for a moment.
“I might not be able to go out tonight. I’ll get some weeds over. I’ll sleep here tonight!” Yang Guang said.
“Okay.”
Xu Ling knew very well that although the fire had been extinguished, there were still ashes left on the wood in the forest. The temperature was also very high and no one would be able to withstand it. They could only wait for the ashes to be extinguished before they could go over.
There were many one-meter-tall weeds by the pond. Yang Guang plucked some and pounced on two large patches by the shore.
There was some distance between the two, so they didn’t touch each other.
The sky gradually darkened. The roar of the plane hadn’t been heard for a long time. It was obvious that the fire had ended and it had returned to the airport.
Sun Wannian’s remaining sheep were eating grass by the water. They were very relaxed and had completely forgotten that they had almost died in the sea of fire just now.
Yang Guang looked dejected and couldn’t help but say, “You guys seem really comfortable. I still don’t know what to eat for dinner tonight!”
Xu Ling smiled when she heard that and turned to look at him. “You should be fine even if you don’t eat for the whole night.”
“I was afraid that you would be hungry, but I don’t mind!”
Yang Guang smiled and felt that the atmosphere was a little better, so he continued, “This fire should have killed a lot of small animals. I’ll go and look for them later!”
“Don’t. There are still burning coals everywhere in the fire. Don’t endanger yourself. I’ll be fine!” Xu Ling shook her head and said softly.

“Alright then.”
Yang Guang nodded. He didn’t dare to look at her, so he turned his head.
Xu Ling was wearing shorts and a white tank top. Her outfit looked cute and innocent. Any man would feel titillated just by looking at her.
Yang Guang was the same. He was afraid that he would get a nosebleed in front of her again, so he didn’t dare to look at her anymore.
The sun set, and the forest gradually darkened as night fell..
