"Ms. Jadeti!"

Alena came to the table and was about to talk to Xingmo when she saw Aurora beside her:

"Miss Assistant? Are you going tonight too?"

"Of course we're going," Aurora leaned back in her chair. "We're going on a date, right?"

"Ah? A date?" Aliena's eyes trembled.

"Ah? Date?" Xing Mo's mouth twitched.

"Yes," Aurora raised her chin, "I'm Miss Jadeti's girlfriend... wooooo!"

Before Aurora could finish, Xingmo stuffed an ice cream cone into her mouth:

"She didn't take her medicine today," Xingmo looked at Alena calmly, "Good afternoon, Miss Alena."

"Good... afternoon?" Aliena was a little at a loss. "Well... well, did I bother you..."

"No, you are an important role tonight," Xing Mo said calmly, "Looks like it's time?"

"Well," Aliena nodded, "it's time to get ready...preparing for the ball..."

"Okay, let's set off."

Xingmo said as he picked up another ice cream cone and stuffed it into Aurora's mouth, then walked to the front desk to prepare to pay.

"Boss, how much is it?"

"This meal is on me," said the boss.

Xing Mo looked up and met the boss's kind face:

"Ms. Jiedeti, you may not remember that you cured my granddaughter... She is now cheerful after recovering from her nightmares... All this is thanks to you..."

"I seem to have an impression..." Xing Mo felt that the old man in front of him looked familiar, "Ah... But no matter what, I still have to pay the bill..."

"Please accept my kindness. Since you don't charge for treatment, there are really not many ways we can repay you."

The old man said this firmly and refused Xingmo's payment again.

Xingmo wanted to say a few more words, but seeing the gleam in the old man's eyes, she finally put away her wallet.

"Then...I wish your granddaughter will always be happy."

Because, that might mean another sun for Winter County.

......

5) Winter's Legacy (Part 2) - 4k4 - (2-in-1)

After getting off the carriage, Xing Mo saw a huge building through the faint wind and snow.

It looked like some kind of manor, but even more magnificent - the main structure of the classical church was expanded to form a townhouse-like structure in both directions, and the windows emitted orange-yellow lights after the wind and snow, like the mythical hundred-eyed giant.

"It's hard to imagine that this is a building in Winter County." Xingmo wrapped her scarf tighter.

"This is a place where the rich and powerful go to have fun. It used to be a manor," Aliena whispered. "Parties are held here every day."

"We're having a party every day, aren't we pigs?" Aurora muttered. "Everyone's so hungry, why not just slaughter the pigs and feed them to everyone?"

Still such a terrifying statement, it fits Aurora's evil god persona very well...

Xingmo gently patted Aurora's shoulder, reminding her that Alena was still nearby, and then said:

"Miss Aliena, I'm afraid we can't get in through the main door?"

"Yes, I have no choice but to go in with my father," Aliena whispered, "but I've prepared everything for you..."

As she spoke, she took out a card and handed it to Xingmo.

Xing Mo took it and looked at it, and found that it was something similar to an identity card.

"This is a merchant certificate. It'll prove to the guards that you're a merchant," Aliena said. "There are a few barrels of wine in the back of this carriage. That should be enough of a disguise."

"It doesn't matter. Even if they notice, we have a way." Xing Mo said.

"What method?" Aliena asked curiously.

"A little trick from the doctor." Xingmo blinked.

Alena stared at Xingmo blankly, then turned her head abruptly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Well... there's a dress in the back of the car that will allow you, Miss Jie Deti, to blend into the crowd without any hindrance..."

"Thank you, thank you for your trouble." Xingmo smiled politely.

"I helped you choose it, didn't I?" Alena glanced at Xingmo cautiously. "Well... I didn't know what style you would like... so..."

"It doesn't matter, I like everything you choose." Xing Mo nodded.

As soon as she finished saying this, she felt an itch at the root of her thigh and immediately trembled slightly.

"What...what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Aliena asked worriedly.

"Ah... that... no... it's okay..." Xing Mo forced a smile, "Um... you go quickly... I'll get ready and go..."

"Well... well then!" Aliena chuckled. "I'm looking forward to seeing you in all your finery!"

After saying that, Aliena trotted off to meet the housekeepers.

After she walked away, Xingmo felt herself being pulled away and pushed into the carriage.

When she came to her senses, she found that she had been pressed into the carriage by Aurora, with a pair of stubborn blood-red eyes staring at her.

"You are not allowed to wear what she bought for you." Aurora said coldly.

"It's too late to buy it now, right?" Xing Mo said as calmly as possible, "Don't be willful, be good."

Aurora stared at Xingmo intently, the light in her eyes turned from stubborn to somewhat dim, and her lips pursed slightly.

She knew she was being unreasonable, so she let go of Xingmo and sat down in her seat angrily.

"It was my negligence that I forgot to ask for a dress at the party. Otherwise, I would have chosen one for you..."

The little evil god suddenly became very lonely, as if he had become alienated from everything around him.

Xingmo climbed up and carefully sat down next to Aurora, looking at the kitten with its head slightly drooping.

"You're having dessert because of something else, right?"

"None of your business." Aurora turned her head.

"You jealous little thing," Xingmo scratched Aurora's cheek. "Actually, I secretly went to a clothing store once."

Hearing this, Aurora's pupils froze slightly, and then she looked at Xingmo in disbelief:

"You've been there, but you didn't buy yourself a dress? Is that why you want her..."

"Because I'm going to buy you a dress, silly boy."

Xingmo said, grabbing a small box from a seat nearby and handing it to Aurora.

Aurora took the box blankly and opened it, only to be greeted by a beautiful white and green dress, neatly folded into a square.

"Ah... Actually it's not the best one. I bought the normal one to save money..."

Xingmo smiled apologetically:

"I only have enough money to buy one, but since you haven't worn anything this beautiful, I bought it for you first... I'll just wear the one Alena gave me..."

"..."

Listening to Xingmo's words, there seemed to be light and shadow flickering in Aurora's eyes, and her small mouth was slightly pursed.

After a long time, she covered herself with clothes and hummed softly:

"You always take care of us..."

"Aren't you being taken care of well?" Xingmo smiled.

"I want to take care of you for once!" Aurora raised her voice a little, then turned her head away in despair.

As expected...it's because of this incident...

It seems to have become a hurdle in her heart...

Looking at the girl's delicate profile that looked like a rag doll, Xingmo felt a little pity in his heart.

Outside the carriage, the winter wind and snow were howling, and from time to time there was the dull sound of horses' hooves stepping on the snow.

Inside the carriage, in the small space, the two sat in their seats in silence.

Is she still afraid? Afraid of the inequality between the two sides, afraid that because of her neglect of care, Xingmo will run away?

Xing Mo didn't know this. The little girl in front of her looked so petite, but her heart seemed to be tangled with countless knots.

Analytical words are like scalpels, but they are ultimately just scalpels. You can use clever language to guide and untie a knot in someone's heart, but it is impossible to untie all the knots.

Aurora was just like that. When she first came into this world, she was so innocent and simply interested in everything.

But after experiencing the rain in October, the feeling of anxiety and fear of loss finally took hold of the little girl's heart.

At this time, there is no point in saying too much.

After all, the sapling needs to experience its own wind and sun before it can become a big tree.

Xingmo is at most just a ray of sunshine in her life.

Well, the best thing sunlight can do is provide warmth.

No overthinking, no overtalking, no opening.

Xingmo opened her arms and held Aurora in her arms:

"Okay! Don't be upset!" Xingmo rubbed Aurora's head with a smile.

"Gu..." Aurora did not struggle. She grabbed Xingmo's arms with her two little hands, but only squeezed them weakly.

Xingmo held the kitten in her arms, closed her eyes, and felt the world around her gradually quiet down.

Faintly, there was a heartbeat:

“Plop… plop… plop…”

Even gods have heartbeats...

So what is the difference between this little evil god and a cat?

......

The process of passing the manor guards was not difficult, especially when Xingmo gave a barrel of fine wine directly to the guards, the smiles on their faces were very attentive.

Without any difficulty, Xingmo and Aurora drove the carriage into the manor, stopped in front of the entrance to the wine cellar in the backyard, and began unloading the goods.

There were several coachmen traveling with them, most of whom had numb expressions on their faces as they repeatedly moved the wine barrels from the carriages into the cellar.

In the cellar, thousands of barrels of wine of similar capacity are neatly displayed.

They drank more wine than I drank water...Xingmo complained inwardly.

After dealing with the wine, Xingmo sneaked away with Aurora, and walked all the way to the main building through the path in the back garden.

"..."

In the hidden cloakroom, Xingmo and Aurora quickly changed into their dresses and prepared to sneak into the party.

"It suits you very well..."

Looking at the drawn curtain, Xing Mo praised her own vision with satisfaction:

Aurora, in her evening gown, looked like an angel born from flowers. Her green and white dress lingered around her body like clouds and flowers, reminding Xingmo of the scene when they first met.

Seeing Xingmo's admiring gaze, Aurora felt unusually awkward and tapped her heels lightly.

"Don't look!"

"The purpose of changing into nice clothes is to show people..." Xing Mo laughed, "Didn't you keep looking at me when you were putting on my dress before?"

"I...I'm the owner. What's wrong with watching my pet change clothes?" Aurora puffed up her cheeks.

"You're the little pet," Xingmo walked up to Aurora and smoothed her messy hair behind her ears. "Do you like this dress?"

Aurora lowered her head, paused, and then whispered:

"...Not bad."
