A Young Woman's Heart

"Fast? It's alright. The fastest I've ever finished was two and a half days."

“I usually stay for a standard five days each time…” Mo Xueyao sighed, “Ah, it’s still more comfortable when the sun is shining.”

"Awen said that tomorrow you can stay in the mountains, or you can go to the city to do whatever you want, or go out with the teachers who have other plans. Then, you'll go back the day after tomorrow." She stretched out her limbs and leaned back in her chair. "Hmm..."

"You act like you're completely liberated." Mo Xueyao glanced at her sideways. "Tomorrow... I've decided to get a good night's sleep in my dorm. I haven't been getting enough sleep lately."

"Oh dear, there's no evening self-study today, so I can go to bed early. I'm planning to go to the city again and visit some attractions I didn't get to last time."

"Go ahead." Mo Xueyao rubbed her sky-blue eyes and sighed wearily. "I'm so tired, I wish I could finish the humanities exam right now and then go to sleep this afternoon."

Wang Jiale, whose feet couldn't touch the ground, gently swung her legs: "Actually, after a month, it's really hard to leave."

"Why are you reluctant to part with it again?"

"Wouldn't Haruka do that?"

"Probably not." Although Mo Xueyao is much more sentimental than before, she is still quite 'rough' compared to most sensitive girls.

"Come visit again if you have the chance in the future."

"Well, if there's a chance." Mo Xueyao remained noncommittal.

"After we leave, this place will become deserted again, won't it?" Wang Jiale seemed a little regretful. "Sigh, it's actually quite nice."

"Don't worry about that, someone will definitely use it... In a while, some schools will probably start military training or agricultural training during the summer vacation."

"Ah That's good."

"Are you worried this building will be lonely?"

"Hey, I'm afraid the mountains, flowers, trees, birds, and animals here are lonely."

"Why aren't there any bugs?"

"Insects don't deserve loneliness!"

"puff……"

The golden-red sun rose higher and higher, while the grass and leaves in the mountains grew ever greener.

In the distance, you can hear the sound of trucks rolling over the gravel road in the mountains.

It made a 'clattering' sound, like something being thrown into a pot of oil.

Before long, the outline of the truck could be seen on the winding mountain road. It disappeared around one corner and reappeared around another.

They drove up to the halfway point of the mountain, gradually slowing down as they honked their horn to get the students out of the square.

Today's meal is fast food.

Box after box.

Those boxes are similar to clothing storage boxes.

In addition, there were seven iron buckets, which, without a doubt, contained soup.

Even the soups are incredibly diverse; sometimes it's tomato and egg soup, sometimes it's pickled mustard greens and seaweed soup, and sometimes it's tofu soup...

There are plenty of ingredients inside; if there's really no more vegetables to eat, just drinking the soup is enough for a bowl of rice.

Students from different classes were already used to coming to pick up their meals.

There was someone from each class watching over them.

Li Hongran was in charge of this matter in Class Two, and several strong boys were standing next to him.

A typical class has two storage boxes plus a metal bucket.

The quantity is allocated according to the number of students in the class.

"Class 2, Grade 12!" The worker on the bus glanced at the note, looked up, and shouted.

"This way!" Li Hongran immediately led her people to squeeze through and stood guard below.

After receiving the food and soup, two people immediately carried it to the classroom door.

Although that place has now been turned into a temporary examination room, it's still not a problem for a class to come over and have a meal.

Class 2 was one of the first classes to get their food, and other classes came over to watch, seemingly to join in the fun.

When the lid was lifted and people saw what was inside, many of them burst into excited shouts—it was all boys.

Wow! Lunch today is sweet and sour pork and fried pork chop!

"If anyone doesn't want any, I can eat three servings today!"

"Who wants fried pork chop? I'll trade it for his sweet and sour pork!"

These guys immediately started shouting.

"Sweet and sour pork..." Mo Xueyao licked her lips. This was one of her favorite dishes, probably on par with hot and sour shredded potatoes and shredded pork with garlic sauce.

Oh, and of course, grilled sea bass is a must.

"Xiaoyao, do you have a good appetite today?"

"Hey Lele, you want my food?"

"No, no, it's just that you don't seem to have much of an appetite when you're on your period."

"It's been several days now...it's almost over, it's alright, I don't feel anything too special." She wouldn't budge an inch when it came to her favorite dishes, "I want to eat every single one!"

"Pfft, what are you doing? It's not like I'm trying to take it from you."

"Tsk, I'll steal yours then!"

"You dare! If you dare, I'll have Yin Yin ambush you at night!"

"Alas--"

"What? I think I just heard someone call me?"

"This is none of your business, go play somewhere else—" Mo Xueyao pushed away Hua Yinyin's cheek as she leaned in, annoyed.

……

"distant."

"Ok?"

Li Wanyan didn't say anything, but simply put a few pieces of her sweet and sour pork onto her rice.

The bright orange sauce looked so appetizing that it made one's mouth water, and Mo Xueyao had almost finished her own.

Mo Xueyao, however, was not surprised at all. She simply handed her some of her vegetables as a matter of exchange.

Does Li Wanyan really like eating vegetables?

Not necessarily.

Chapter 274 Mountain God Temple

The morning sunlight shone through the cracked window and fell on Mo Xueyao's face.

She silently smacked her lips a few times and then buried her head completely under the covers.

There seemed to be some noise coming from inside the dormitory.

However, she was still fast asleep, so she could only faintly hear voices and footsteps that came and went.

Every time I open the door, all the noise from outside the hallway rushes in.

Mo Xueyao curled up like a kitten, nestled close to the wall, sleeping peacefully.

"Yaoyao, I...I'm leaving..."

"Hmm..." A drowsy voice reached her ears. She didn't think about what was said and just instinctively responded.

"Little one! You really...don't...?"

"...Home...out...oh."

"Hmm..." Mo Xueyao nodded again, still hiding her head under the covers, her voice muffled as if coming from a dream, "Let me sleep in..."

"puff……"

"cute……"

Faintly, I seemed to hear the girls' silvery laughter, and then the noisy chatter and footsteps faded away.

"Click".

It was the sound of a door being gently closed.

After that, all external noise seemed to be completely shut out.

Mo Xueyao was finally able to return to that wonderful dreamland.

She poked her head out from under the covers, letting the sunlight shine on her, and slept soundly.

……

(two)

The sun is getting hotter and hotter.

The weather is exceptionally nice today.

This kind of weather is perfect for doing many things.

But probably the least suitable option is to sleep at home.

The sunlight, like the sun's hand, touched and gently patted Mo Xueyao's cheek.
