Chapter 420

Under the warm sunlight, the movements of Lin Mo and Keqing filled the air with intense emotion.

Hearing Lin Mo's words and realizing that Lin Mo wanted to go further, Keqing's heart was filled with contradiction and anxiety.

"I, my clothes don't have buttons."

Keqing's voice was weak and shy, her cheeks flushed, and her eyes carried a trace of confusion and fear.

Keqing held Lin Mo tightly and whispered: "I, I'm not ready either. Can, can you give me some time? Tomorrow is the Rite of Descension, and there are many things to be busy with."

Although Keqing had anticipated the situation, thinking of the Rite of Descension tomorrow and the recent busy matters.

She was not prepared either.

So when Keqing held Lin Mo and spoke, there was a trace of anxiety in her eyes, as if she were afraid that Lin Mo would be angry.

Although she had deep feelings for Lin Mo, at this critical moment, Keqing felt an indescribable panic.

She worried that Lin Mo would be angry because of her refusal, and worried that this would affect the relationship between her and Lin Mo.

In Keqing's eyes, one could even see a pleading desire, hoping that Lin Mo could understand her feelings.

"Of course."

Hearing Keqing's words, Lin Mo, who was busy, paused and chuckled: "I can understand you."

Lin Mo's response was gentle and understanding; there was no disappointment or anger in his voice, only deep understanding and respect for Keqing.

For Keqing, he was quite understanding.

In the time spent with Keqing, he felt that he and Keqing were naturally walking together; the two were clearly not lovers, yet at this moment, it was better than being lovers.

And he was quite busy himself.

He had Collei in the morning, Jingliu in the afternoon, and Collei again in the evening.

If he put his energy into Keqing now, it might affect his performance with Jingliu in the afternoon.

"Tha, thank you."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, this reaction from Lin Mo made Keqing's heart relax instantly.

She knew that Lin Mo was not the kind of impulsive person; the feelings between them were built on the basis of mutual understanding and respect.

At this moment, although they were not lovers, the tacit understanding and deep affection between them were better than lovers.

Thinking that Lin Mo respected her so much, Keqing was moved and held Lin Mo for a while.

Lin Mo truly considered her too much.

Thinking of this, a trace of apology appeared in Keqing's eyes, and she whispered: "I, I'm sorry."

"No need to apologize."

Hearing Keqing's words, Lin Mo chuckled and patted Keqing's shoulder, saying softly: "There is nothing to apologize for; even if you are willing to marry me in the future, when you are ready, I am willing to wait."

"Who said I wanted to marry you?"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing's face flushed slightly, and she pretended to be proud, pinching Lin Mo's ribs and humming.

"Not willing? If you're not willing, then forget it."

Sensing the proud Keqing, Lin Mo chuckled: "If you're not willing, then I won't marry you."

"You dare?!"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing was suddenly fierce, her face flushed, and she shyly pinched Lin Mo's waist: "You've already done this to me, and you dare not take responsibility."

"How could I."

Lin Mo smiled and pinched Keqing's cheek: "Being able to take responsibility for a Liyue Qixing is also a very happy thing; ordinary people don't even have this opportunity."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing chose to let Lin Mo off with a proud expression: "I'll count it as you speaking nicely."

Saying this, Keqing sat back in Lin Mo's arms, leaning on Lin Mo, and together they looked at the bright sun in the distance.

"Is it very uncomfortable?"

Suddenly, the next second, Keqing, who sensed something, leaned in Lin Mo's arms and whispered.

"Hmm?"

Sensing the sneak attack of Keqing's small hand, Lin Mo shook his head: "It's okay, but it's not good for you to sneak attack like this."

"Don't you like it?"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing hummed, her small hand pretending to withdraw: "Then, then I'll let go."

"I still like it quite a bit."

Lin Mo chuckled: "Of course, it would be better if the speed was a little faster."

An incense stick of time passed unknowingly, and Keqing was completely clinging to Lin Mo's arms.

Feeling the soreness in her arms and mouth, Keqing complained: "Why is it so slow? Hurry up, I've already switched from hands to mouth."

"Just kiss me again."

Lin Mo breathed gently and whispered: "This can't be blamed on me either."

"But I've already kissed you many times, more than ten times."

Keqing's tone was full of love and complaint, complaining: "It's fine that my hands are numb, but my mouth is also numb. You are so strong; who can stand you in the future?"

"That's not necessarily true."

Lin Mo chuckled: "Don't underestimate the people of the world."

"How can you say that."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing rolled her eyes at Lin Mo and hummed: "I know you are extraordinary, but I don't care; I want the highest status."

Keqing knew that such an excellent person as Lin Mo would definitely have more than just her by his side in the future.

Since she had already decided on something, she must do it to the best of her ability.

"On my side, everyone has the highest status, and everyone is treated equally."

Hearing Keqing's words, Lin Mo pondered for a moment, thought seriously, and shook his head gently: "If the bowl of water is not balanced, then no one will be convinced, and that's not good."

"Is that so?"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing frowned imperceptibly.

But thinking of the decision she had already made, Keqing sighed: "You really are a nemesis."

"Of course."

Hearing Keqing's words, Lin Mo chuckled and teased: "Maybe in the future, the status can be judged by technique; whoever has the best technique will have the highest status, how about that?"

"You really are a bad guy!"

Hearing this, Keqing glared at Lin Mo with a shy and angry expression.

She wished she could take the sword beside her and chop Lin Mo's head.

How could anyone have such an idea!

"Actually, the status is not important; it's good for everyone to get along."

Lin Mo shook his head gently: "If you have to fight for status, what is the point? Just like you Liyue Qixing, the status of both sides is equal, but the direction of responsibility is different, just like your philosophy sometimes differs from Ningguang's, but it does not hinder your contribution to Liyue; Liyue cannot do without you."

"What you said also makes sense."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Keqing was stunned.

After thinking about it carefully, she found that it was really like this.

Immediately, Keqing rolled her eyes at Lin Mo and continued to bury her head...

Time passed quietly, and the noon sun was warm and bright, shining on the hillside of Guyun Stone Forest, making this grassland look even more vibrant.

Lying on the grass, Keqing, facing the sky, felt the warmth of the sun and the breeze.

Her eyes were half-closed, and her face was filled with a peaceful smile.
