Liu Duo only stopped smiling when she couldn't see Ye Ling's back. She felt so frustrated! However, she couldn't tell him, otherwise, she might corrupt his youth.

After all, Ye Ling was only nineteen years old and didn't know about such things. She didn't want to turn a little white rabbit into a big bad wolf!

Feeling depressed, she tied all the hair on her head into a ponytail and then went beside the well to wash her face and rinse her mouth.

On the other side, Ye Mo was still deep asleep on the bed. This was the first time in his long life that he had slept so peacefully.

When he was young, he had needed to wake up early to help with work. When he started going to school, he had still needed to wake up early to go to school. Later, when their family began to have problems, he had also needed to wake up early to take care of a young Ye Ling.

They could eat after the mantous were steamed. Ye Ling ladled in the paste. Liu Duo then helped to carry it to the table and arranged the bowls and chopsticks.

"It seems like Mo is really tired. He still hasn't got up." Ye Ling looked at the bedroom door and said faintly.

"Emm, yeah. Ling, we don't need to wait for him. Let him sleep." Liu Duo said insincerely.

He nodded and then carried Ye Mo's bowl of paste back into the kitchen to keep it warm in the pot.

Ye Mo finally woke up naturally, late in the morning. He put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom.

The sunlight in spring was always very gentle. Ye Mo walked to the side of the well and washed his face and rinsed his mouth, but he didn't see any trace of Liu Duo or Ye Ling.

He frowned, carelessly washed his face and rinsed his mouth, and then went out.

Liu Duo and Ye Ling, on the other hand, were transporting the rice seedlings to the side of the paddy field, so that they could be transplanted. Of course, Liu Duo wouldn't be going down into the paddy field.

Ye Ling insisted on transplanting the seedlings. He said, "Mo is too tired. Almost all of the farm work is done by him. I need to help with some of it. I won't wear myself out."

Liu Duo initially didn't want him to do this, as she was afraid he might get tired. However, she couldn't dissuade the stubborn Ye Ling. Liu Duo could only compromise and help him carry the rice seedlings.

Ye Mo circled the area near their house and didn't find them. He also didn't find them in the vegetable field. He finally found them in the paddy field. He let out a breath.

At that time, he had been really afraid Liu Duo had ran away again. He had been even more worried than when she had ran away on her first day there. He hadn't really known why, but he had just been especially afraid that she might disappear.

As if she had telepathy, Liu Duo turned around and saw Ye Mo panting heavily. He was even sweating all over. She frowned, "Tsk, you thought that I ran away again, right? You are so senseless!"

She rolled her eyes at him!

Ye Mo did not feel embarrassed at all that his thoughts were exposed. Instead, he smiled and thought, That's good. What she said was true. She really won't run away again."

Liu Duo saw Ye Mo smiling, while staring at her, and was unable to make head nor tail of it. He looked like an idiot!

She pouted and turned around, her back facing him. She didn't want to pay attention to him. He had crossed the line and used her hand without saying anything. He even suspected her of running away again. She was really angry in that moment. Humph…

Ye Mo smiled, walked forward, and touched Liu Duo's head. He then took off his shoes, rolled up his sleeves and trousers, and then went down to the paddy field to help transplant the rice seedlings.

"Ling, don't work for too long. Pay attention to your body, and don't get tired." He exhorted Ye Ling and then began to transplant the rice seedlings.

"Yeah, I know. Mo, have you eaten the paste that was being kept warm in the pot and the mantou?" Ye Ling saw that Ye Mo had arrived and lifted his head to ask him.

"No. I'm not hungry yet. I'll go back and eat it later. It's all the same." Ye Mo's opinion differed from Ling's. He lowered his head and busied his hands with work.

"Why didn't you eat? It's not good for your body." Ye Ling frowned. All three of his brothers liked to be like this and skip breakfast.

"It's fine. It's just one meal. It's not important."
