Anime, but you can win a prize by confessing your love

"She knows."

"Tell her again...what did you say?"

"Little Pochi knows. I've talked to her about it. Not only that, her parents also know about it, but they haven't fully agreed yet. They said they'll observe me for a while before making a decision."

Hongxia felt that her three views were shattered, and so did Kita who was walking by.

That's what they were talking about that night?

…………

After a night of tutoring, Ye Mu rubbed his eyes and got up. The blonde girl lying next to him had left at some point.

Probably went to school, poor high school student.

I thought today would be the same as yesterday, with me going to work in the restaurant as usual and then going to Fanxing for training in the afternoon. However, when I opened my phone, the unread messages that came into my sight broke this peaceful daily routine.

"Mr. Ye, are you free today? There is a small task that is quite good. It is easy to do and the commission is high. Are you interested in going together?" - Vinate

Oh boy, doesn’t Vinate have to go to school?

Continuing to look down with doubts, she immediately gave an explanation.

"I've asked for leave, but Xiaojia can't go because she's been absent from class too many times and the teacher no longer trusts her excuses for leave."

Go to another unread message, it’s from Gabriel, and it’s a voice message.

As I clicked on it, the complaining voice came out: "Ahhh, I want to go too! I want to skip class!"

hum~

While Ye Mu was thinking, Vinate sent another message.

"Xiao Jia really can't go. Does Ye Jun want to go? The mission is really simple and won't take a day. Just treat it as climbing a mountain."

Is there anything to hesitate about?

Ye Mu decisively asked for leave and contacted Vinate. After a while, the cute little devil appeared at the door.

"Good morning, Ye-kun!"

She greeted with a gentle smile.

She is wearing a grey sweatshirt, denim shorts, her round calves are wrapped in black socks, and she is wearing a pair of sneakers. Today she is dressed like a sporty girl and looks very cute.

"Good morning Vinate, are you still carrying your backpack?"

Ye Mu glanced behind her and saw a huge backpack that was completely inconsistent with the girl's body shape and was wider than the girl's slender waist.

Vinate took off the travel bag she was carrying and opened it to show Ye Mu the bulging contents inside.

There were pickled meats, vegetables, seasoning bottles and snacks packed in fresh-keeping boxes, and at the bottom there seemed to be waterproof cloth and bottled water. It was a dazzling array of things, and it really felt like an outing.

Seeing Ye Mu's surprised look, Vinate's smile became even wider.

"I went to the supermarket to do some shopping last night. If you don't go, it might be wasted."

There were beads of sweat running down her face, and her complexion was a little red. She must have been exhausted from carrying such a stuffed backpack all the way here.

This is not a devil at all; it is clearly an angel shining with holy light!

Ye Mu pursed her lips, hugged Vinate in her arms, and touched her little head with her hand.

"Don't do that... I'm all sweaty... I smell."

Vinate blushed and tried to struggle out of Ye Mu's arms, but was paralyzed by his next move.

Ye Mu suddenly lowered his head, moved close to Vinate's purple hair, and took a deep sniff.

"No, Vinate smells delicious all over. Thank you for your hard work. I'll carry the backpack from now on."

The breath hit Vinate's hair, making it itchy.

She buried her face in Ye Mu's arms and agreed in a weak voice.

First I took the tram, then took a taxi, and finally stopped at an intersection of a winding mountain road.

After seeing the two people off, the taxi driver shuddered as he recalled the urban legend about this mountain.

He turned around and ran away.

Neon is a mountainous country, and the mission location is a small peak somewhere in the mountains. Because it has no special features and its remote location, the yang energy is not strong, and over time, unclean things are bred.

But unfortunately it ends here.

The trident emitted a purple-black halo, which flew off into the distance as if automatically aiming, and then trapped a mass of distorted air.

"Now Ye Jun!"

Ye Mu did not hesitate. With a flash of lightning, he threw the coin and fired.

In an instant, the twisting thing turned into a ball of black ash under the lightning and then disappeared.

Vinate's expression didn't change from beginning to end. She put away her trident and clapped with a smile.

"Well done Ye Jun, mission accomplished!"

Ah, is this the end? No wonder Vinate said just treat it like climbing a mountain.

The task was completed unexpectedly smoothly. The two men only climbed the stairs for twenty minutes and ended the battle in less than twenty seconds.

Looking around, the thick fog that was once as solid as a solid object was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the sunlight was shining through the lush greenery.

The beautiful scenery, the hill with no one around because it is haunted, and the girl next to her with her hands behind her back and smiling sweetly, it is quite clear what to do next.

Hand in hand, they walked carefully up the moss-covered stone steps toward the top of the mountain.

There was no one around, and apart from the gurgling water flowing through the cracks in the rocks and the chirping of birds, there was no other sound. It was as quiet as if one were isolated from the world.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and moved forward silently, unwilling to break the peace.

Occasionally when they stopped to rest, Vinate would take out wet wipes and gently wipe Ye Mu's sweat. However, when Ye Mu also wanted to wipe her sweat, she would avoid him with a mischievous smile.

Time seems to stand still here.

Chapter 77 BBQ

The view from the top of the mountain is wider. Looking down, you can see the winding mountain road and the small town in the valley. The scenery is unique.

The altitude is not too high, but not too low either, just enough to lower the hot temperature to a comfortable level.

"Ye Jun, let's have a picnic here. Go pick up some branches."

Vinate motioned for Ye Mu to put down his bag, then spread out the picnic tarp and started packing up.

"Oh, no problem."

It was already noon, but Ye Mu was still a little dazed, as if time was not passing so quickly.

I turned on my phone and it was already 11 o'clock in the morning, just as Vinate said.

Well, Ye Mu curled his lips and searched around for branches. He thought that there was some strange monster that had not been destroyed, causing the two of them to mistakenly enter the space of eternal time.

Now that I think about it, how could such a strange development be possible?

It is not difficult to find branches. The key is to pick the right ones. Fresh branches that have just fallen from the tree are too wet, so they are obviously not suitable.

Soon, Ye Mu discovered the secret, which was to find branches that had fallen on the stone steps for some time, away from the wet ground, so most of them were relatively dry and suitable for making fire.

As he was picking up the trash, Ye Mu suddenly heard some tiny noises. With his heightened sensitivity, he caught a glimpse of a grey shadow passing through the bushes.

It's a hare!

Ye Mu's eyes lit up. Now the food could be improved.

He slowly followed the direction the hare ran in, and soon he saw the hare standing at the entrance of the cave, which had not yet entered.

He estimated the distance between them and gathered his strength slightly. A flash of lightning passed by and the poor victim twitched twice. He struggled to escape but was caught by Ye Mu with one hand.

"Great!"

A few minutes later.

"Vinate, look what I caught?"

"What? Ah!"

Vinate, who was fiddling with the grill, turned her head and was startled by the rabbit that was still fluttering around.

Slowly coming back to her senses, Vinate calmed down and took the rabbit from Ye Mu, but her movements were much more graceful.

She put the gray rabbit on the ground, but the rabbit didn't run away. Instead, it curled up into a ball, and its long ears trembled along with its body.

"So cute~"

Vinate giggled, and Ye Mu next to her deliberately took over the conversation.

"Yes, the rabbit we just caught is so cute, why don't we roast it and eat it."

Vinate's smile froze instantly. She took a hard look at the gray ball of fur, and couldn't connect the cute creature in front of her with the processed marinated meat beside her.

"Ah, yes... What a cute rabbit. It should be delicious... But I think... it's a pity to eat it directly."

She stammered as she explained, and when she saw Ye Mu's sly smile as if he had succeeded in playing a successful prank, she suddenly reacted.

No, regardless of whether this wild rabbit is clean or not, Ye Mu didn’t even kill it, and it seemed that he didn’t intend to eat it.

Seeing Vinate’s angry expression, Ye Mu couldn’t help but laugh.

"Vinate's reaction is so cute. I can't think of it like the devil in hell."

"I don't think either of us can handle this rabbit, so I didn't kill it when I caught it. I just came back to see your reaction, but I didn't expect..."

"You didn't expect me to be so soft-hearted and embarrassed? Your impression of the devil is too stereotyped!"

Vinate patted the hare gently, and after it ran away, she took out an alcohol wipe and began to wipe her hands.

"Who says that demons must be bad guys? I've been in the human world for a while, and the biggest trouble I've caused to others is accidentally getting scared by bugs and blowing up Gabriel's room."

"Is it really that scary? No wonder I found surprisingly little garbage when I went to Gabriel's house a few days ago..."

Ye Mu was recalling, and Vinate, who was sitting next to him, naturally grabbed his hand and wiped it with alcohol wipes, complaining softly while wiping.

"Don't do this next time. Wild animals are not clean. I'm a demon so it doesn't matter. But you should try not to get infected with any germs or anything like that."

Vinate's hands are very small. Maybe it's a psychological effect, but Ye Mu always feels that those small hands with distinct joints are just the right softness.

When did the distance between us become so close?

By the time Ye Mu started thinking about this question, the girl in front of him had already sat next to the barbecue grill.

The mini barbecue grill has been set up, three or four seasoning bottles are neatly placed next to it, and the meat and vegetables are also arranged in advance according to the order of roasting. Everything seems to have been taken care of by Vinate.

"Oh yes, Vinate, this is the branch I picked up."

Ye Mu, who felt that he was not playing a role, suddenly remembered something and pointed to a small pile of branches tied with a climbing rope.

"Great, Ye Jun did a great job!"

Vinate took out the coal from the bottom of her backpack, put it on the lower layer of the grill, then freed her hand to give Ye Mu a thumbs up.

"Ah??? Don't you have coal? If I pick up these branches...I still need to make a fire?"

Ye Mu was a little confused.

"Actually, I never said I wanted to use branches to make a fire. Isn't this just to give Ye Jun something to do and give him a sense of participation?"

Vinate blinked and stuck out her tongue.

"Hey, it looks like the opposite effect has occurred. I've successfully become a demon that causes trouble for others."

However, things are definitely not that simple. Ye Mu looked at the pile of dry branches and an inspiration flashed in his mind.

There is so much fog on the top of the mountain that if you want to find branches, you can only pick up those that have fallen on the steps. Could it be that Vinate wants to clean it up at the same time in order not to disturb later tourists?

Looking at the back of the little devil who was busy again, Ye Mu thought more and more that it was possible. After all, Vinate really looked like the kind of girl who would volunteer to clean up garbage.

"but…"

Ye Mu slowly approached Vinate who was kneeling there.

"I'm not the kind of herbivore who gets manipulated by girls."

"Ye Jun, what's wrong?"
