for Advance Chapter
"Haha, it's so itchy." Ye Youyou stepped on the mottled and uneven rocks eroded by wind and rain in her socks. The white and tender soles of her feet felt tingling and she couldn't help laughing.
The river breeze blew her skirt, and she held down the long hem of the skirt, revealing her well-proportioned and slender legs wrapped in long black cotton socks.
The girl is as delicate as a morning flower covered with dew, quietly blooming. I am reluctant to pick her. Just looking at her, the wonderful feeling penetrates my heart.
"Lin Junyi, turn around and don't peek." There was a hint of shyness in Ye Youyou's smile. The stockings that were above the knees and stuck to the thighs could be considered as a girl's close-fitting clothing. Although she put her hands into the skirt to take them off and nothing would be exposed, Ye Youyou's heart was still beating wildly in front of Lin Junyi.
"I won't peek at you until you think I'm a hooligan." Lin Junyi thought that one day when he peeked at her secretly, she would just be embarrassed and scold him as a "pervert".
Ye Youyou was worried, so she ran behind a bush and took off her socks. When she ran out, her white and delicate calves and beautiful slender feet as smooth as jade were exposed.
Ye Youyou casually rolled up her socks and placed them on the rock. Lin Junyi ran over, picked up her socks, and stuffed them into his pocket. "These socks are smelly and will attract ants and bugs crawling around. It's better to put them away."
"Your socks are the ones that smell, mine don't smell at all, I don't believe you..." For a little girl with good hygiene habits, the most intolerable thing is others saying this, Ye Youyou said indignantly, but stopped talking, her neck flushed with shame.
"Really?" Lin Junyi asked doubtfully, "My socks are very smelly, let me smell yours."
After saying that, Lin Junyi picked it up and smelled it naturally. "Sure enough, it doesn't stink, it smells nice. How strange... Haha, I'm just curious why your socks don't stink, just like you're curious about why I have an Adam's apple."
Ye Youyou pursed her lips, staring at Lin Junyi, not knowing whether she was embarrassed or annoyed. Lin Junyi said that her socks smelled delicious, and Ye Youyou didn't mind at all, but the socks he had just taken off from the base of her legs, he clearly smelled the part above the knees!
Ye Youyou turned her head away, her cheeks flushed, and a hint of shame quietly blossomed in her little thoughts, making her want to cover her face... She was just a little happy. She felt that all the things Lin Junyi did made her heart seem to melt.
There was a lingering fragrance on her hand. Lin Junyi felt the warmth of Ye Youyou on her socks and the unique scent of a young girl's body. He held Ye Youyou's little hand and led her down to the shallow water by the river.
"The water is so cold." Ye Youyou pressed down her skirt with one hand, tested the water temperature with her toes, and then stepped in.
"Hold on to my hand. You won't be in any trouble if you fall here, but your clothes will get wet." Lin Junyi led the way. "Look at this crab. It's eating a shrimp. Catch it."
Ye Youyou held her breath, her little face full of excitement, and she reached into the water with trembling hands. The crab was surprisingly alert, and sensing the strangeness of the water flow, it paddled with a few legs and dived sideways into the dark water, disappearing without a trace.
"Why did he run away? I couldn't catch him!" Ye Youyou was very disappointed, and her little lips pouted.
"There's another one over there. Don't be nervous, just act like you're picking up a stone from the water." Lin Junyi used shredded meat to hook out an extra-large crab.
This time, Ye Youyou didn't miss. She pinched the crab's butt hard and ran happily to the shore, splashing water. "Look, Lin Junyi, the one I caught is the biggest!"
With Ye Youyou's involvement, the speed of catching crabs slowed down significantly. Most of them were scared into running into the caves and would not come out even if they were lured with meat strips. Ye Youyou, on the other hand, was having a lot of fun. Lin Junyi could only catch those crabs who were still wondering whether the white and smooth toes like pearls were delicious food and put them into the net bag before she made a move.
"Lin Junyi, I'm hungry, what should I do?" Ye Youyou knelt on the grass by the river, watching Lin Junyi busying himself. The steam rising from the pot and the aroma made people salivate.
Lin Junyi prepared a mixture of chopped scallions, minced ginger, balsamic vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and sesame oil and placed it on a small dish. When he was in college, he was keen on going on long trips with a group of fellow hikers. However, later on, these activities gradually deteriorated, becoming synonymous with extramarital affairs and one-night stands. As a large number of inexperienced people with ulterior motives infiltrated the group, Lin Junyi gradually withdrew from such activities and became accustomed to traveling alone. He had extensive experience in the wild, let alone preparing such picnics.
In September, female crabs are eaten. Lin Junyi picked those female crabs with round bellies and horizontal stripes. After steaming, the color of the blue crabs turned orange and emitted an attractive aroma. Lin Junyi skillfully turned over the crab shell, pinched the golden roe, dipped it in sauce, and fed it to Ye Youyou.
"Hey...eat slowly, you're biting my fingers." Lin Junyi quickly retracted his hand. Ye Youyou was really hungry. The yellow paste was extremely sweet and delicious, so she ate it in an aggressive manner.
"It's really delicious, but I don't know how to peel it..." Ye Youyou took a crab and turned it over and over, but couldn't get any roe out. She looked at Lin Junyi anxiously.
"Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry. I'll peel it for you. Look how greedy you are." Lin Junyi pinched Ye Youyou's nose affectionately. Ye Youyou was like this, without a trace of shyness. She acted coquettishly in front of Lin Junyi naturally. The feeling of closeness and attachment made Lin Junyi intoxicated.
Most of the crab meat and roe went into Ye Youyou's mouth. Even when all the crab meat was picked out and eaten cleanly, Ye Youyou still felt unsatisfied. Only then did she regret that she should have stayed on the river bank honestly.
"What's wrong?" Lin Junyi began to clean up the mess and saw Ye Youyou suddenly frowned with a painful expression.
"Ah! Lin Junyi... My stomach hurts, it hurts so much..." Ye Youyou tightly grasped Lin Junyi's arm, her face a little pale.
How could that be? He had cleaned all the crabs in the nearby well and steamed them for a long enough time. They couldn't possibly be unclean, and it wasn't like he had an upset stomach. It was just that crabs are cold in nature... Lin Junyi suddenly thought of a possibility and felt annoyed. "Are you having your period?"
"Which one?" Ye Youyou's voice had a hint of tears.
"Aunt."
"What?" Ye Youyou had never heard of this before.
"good friend?....
