I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

Both girls felt their soles were terribly sore and weak, and some were even red.

If it weren't for something in their hearts that kept them going.

Perhaps both girls have given up.

Now they are walking back and forth in the stream, and the expressions on their faces are much more relaxed.

With their feet soaking in the cool stream, the two felt much better.

The two even felt that the heat in their bodies had disappeared.

The stream is filled with pebbles of all shapes and sizes, all round and smooth, and their distribution is not very regular.

However, the girl deliberately walked back and forth on the pebbles, and every now and then you could see small fish and shrimp darting out from the cracks in the stones, startled.

This made both of them burst into laughter.

Chiho gathered her long skirt into a ball and held it in her hands to prevent it from getting wet in the stream.

A pair of long, fair, and delicate legs were revealed, stepping on pebbles.

She comes from a wealthy family, yet she is even thinner, with hardly any flesh on her legs, making her appear rather slender.

While Aoi Asahi is wearing jeans, they aren't the tight-fitting kind. Instead, they're loose-fitting, more casual and sporty jeans.

You can easily roll up your pants to your knees so your clothes won't get wet when you step into the water.

The curve of her calf was a smooth arc, which looked extremely beautiful.

Just looking at her figure, Asahi Aoi seems more powerful and strong.

—Probably because I work in a library and need to walk around a lot, that's why I have such firm and strong thighs.

As Xia Wuzhao thought this, he watched the two people playing in the stream.

Stepping firmly on the pebbles felt like a foot massage. Both girls enjoyed this sensation that relieved foot fatigue.

Some cities even deliberately build roads like this, which elderly people really like.

Sometimes, however, stepping on it can be so ticklish that you might not be able to help but laugh.

Xia Wuzhao could see the girls giggling from time to time, their bodies swaying from side to side, sometimes almost falling into the stream.

Unfortunately, although the girls were wobbling, they were all able to regain their balance in the end.

Chiho hugged her skirt and stomped around on the pebbles. Sometimes she would use her toes to knock the pebbles out of the mud and sand, then kick them together, and then stomp on them again later.

Sunflower, however, did not do that. It simply walked back and forth in the stream, occasionally kicking aside a wisp of waterweed.

Sometimes, Aoi would even walk faster on purpose, watching the ripples spread across the stream.

Chiho also noticed Aoi doing this, as if she was expressing her dissatisfaction that Aoi had interrupted her plan earlier.

Suddenly, he kicked a puddle of water at the sunflower: "Hey! Asahi!"

When Aoi turned around, the water had just soaked her clothes, leaving some water stains on her shirt.

Asahi Aoi looked at Chiho, her eyebrow twitching slightly: "What's this?"

"Just playing games, that's all." Chiho smiled slyly. "Now that we're here, how can we not play games?"

"And it's very cool, isn't it?"

Chiho blinked her crimson eyes and looked at Aoi Asahi with a grin.

Asahi Aoi glanced at Chiho, then ran her fingers through her hair: "Are you sure you're playing a game?"

"Yes, that's right. We're making a game."

Chiho nodded seriously, indicating that she was telling the truth and had absolutely no intention of taking the opportunity to retaliate.

Absolutely not!

“Then, let’s play games again.” Aoi Asahi smiled at Chiho. “Besides, it seems you’ve forgotten. My clothes are actually more convenient than yours.”

Chiho was taken aback and glanced at Aoi Asahi's neat attire.

Her heart skipped a beat.

"Oh no!"

But now, the sunflower has bent down and suddenly splashed a handful of water at Chiho.

"ah!"

Chiho cried out and quickly dodged away.

But when I stepped on the cobblestones, my feet went numb, my body felt light, and I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Taking advantage of the situation, Aoi splashed water forcefully again, catching Chiho off guard and getting soaked.

"Hey!"

Chiho refused to admit defeat and continued to kick and splash around in the stream.

They kept kicking water at the sunflowers.

The sunflowers dodged very skillfully, and hardly any water was splashed on them.

Chiho had to kick the water while dodging it.

He was clumsy and awkward, appearing rather clumsy.

Chiho was hit by the sunflower several times, and most of her body was soaking wet.

Aoi Asahi smiled at Chiho; "See? You really can't beat me."

Aoi Asahi didn't mean to show off, but Chiho felt that Aoi Asahi was showing off.

It's as if it's saying that not only can't they win this, they can't win anything else either.

Chiho puffed out her cheeks and suddenly made up her mind.

"Hey!"

She suddenly let go of her hand that had been gripping her skirt, and abruptly bent down to splash water on the sunflowers!

Aoi couldn't dodge in time, and a large section of her clothes on her shoulder was instantly soaked.

"Hahaha."

Chiho, hands on her hips and chin tilted back, declared, "I won! I won!"

Asahi glanced at her clothes, and while Chiho was laughing, she suddenly bent down, scooped up a handful of water, and splashed it at Chiho.

Chiho was feeling smug when suddenly a splash of water hit her face.

It soaked her crimson hair.

Her eyes twitched suddenly, then widened and started playfully fighting with Asahi Aoi again, not wanting to be outdone.

The girls' laughter flowed through the stream and the open space, and the sun slowly reappeared, making the stream sparkle.

The flowing, trembling light spots slid and flowed across the girls' clothes.

The laughter was so loud it could drown out the chirping of cicadas.

If it were anyone else, they would probably be unable to resist joining in and playing with the girls.

After all, the girls' smiles were beautiful and youthful, their long hair flowing, and their figures were lovely.

But Xia Wuzhao just watched quietly, her face showing little expression.

Xiao Ai said with a hint of envy, "Now, it's really enviable. Don't you envy Lord Xia Wu?"

"What's there to envy?"

Xia Wuzhao asked Xiao Ai in return.

“Because they look so happy,” Xiao Ai said; “while you, Lady Xia Wu, look completely out of place right now.”

"What's wrong with being out of place?"

Xia Wuzhao asked Xiao Ai this question in return.

Xiao Ai was stunned by the question. She wondered if such a thing needed a reason.

Isn't it obvious how sad it is to feel out of place when others are happy and joyful?

Isn't this obviously pathetic? Because if something is incompatible with happiness and joy, then isn't that unhappiness?

With that thought in mind, Xiao Ai told Xia Wuzhao all of this.

Xia Wuzhao said, "Seeing others happy makes me happy too. It's like I'm drawing fuel called happiness from them, so just seeing them standing in the stream cheering and jumping makes me feel the presence of happiness and joy."

"What does it matter whether I fit in or not?"

"In fact, the safest strategy is to just sit here and watch."

"Just watching will only make you feel happiness and joy. But if you join in, you might feel pain."

"So, I just chose the safe way."

Xia Wuzhao said, "Happiness and joy are fleeting things, rare flashes of inspiration. If you were to join in, you might have to endure the arguments that might happen, and the mundane daily life that would leave no memory of you."

So, now is fine.

“When they are happy, you just need to watch,” Xia Wuzhao said. “Most people don’t even realize the existence of happiness when they are happy. Only when they are watching can they clearly know that it is happiness.”

“Isn’t that too sad?” Xiao Ai retorted; “Never having experienced happiness, only watching others be happy and joyful. That’s too sad, Lady Xiawu.”

"is it?"

Xia Wuzhao said, "I don't feel sad."

He spoke casually, but Xiao Ai knew that Lord Xia Wu would not change his mind.

Xiao Ai could only remain silent and say nothing more.

She felt she couldn't change Lord Xiawu.

So all we can do is remain silent.

The girls were still playing around, and in the bright sunshine, they stood in the stream, forgetting all their troubles.

They were just playing a childish game, splashing water on each other.

The crisp laughter mingled with the summer cicadas' chirping, carried on a cool breeze, and accompanied by the rustling of leaves.

Xia Wuzhao suddenly thought: Perhaps, this is what youth is all about.

There's no need to think about anything, just laugh out loud.

Chiho suddenly shouted something at Natsugiri Kai, and Asahi Aoi also looked at Natsugiri Kai.

But at that moment, Chiho cunningly splashed a large handful of stream water all over Asahi Aoi.

"Haha."

Chiho laughed heartily after her successful sneak attack and ran away before Aoi could react.

They skipped and hopped through the stream.

Aoi was chasing after it.

The two ran around, chasing and playing.

Chapter 189 The Handover Between You and Me in the Shadow Under the Tree

The two stopped fighting after their clothes were completely soaked.

Chiho's black dress was completely stuck to her body.

While not overly revealing, the curves of her body were still too obvious.

You could even see the outline of her underwear through the clothes that clung to her skin, and her skirt was completely soaked with water, clinging wetly to her thighs.

Chiho didn't feel embarrassed at all, because there was no one else around.

Besides Xia Wu, there was only himself.

"What's there to be ashamed of if Xia Wu saw my body?"

"Or rather, I just wanted Xia Wu to see it."

Asahi's clothes were also soaking wet.

Her jeans were fine, but her white top was soaking wet, like a semi-transparent film.
