Chapter 565: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 565: An Incident (2)
The two lay silently on the grass, watching the white clouds drift by and listening to the cascading waterfall and the melodious chirping of the birds. Time passed quickly in their peaceful reverie.
Nearby, Xiao Hua was bouncing around energetically, chasing wild chickens and rabbits, and leaping through the grass to catch butterflies and insects. Soon, its plump belly from breakfast had shrunk down. It dashed to the stream, splashed around for a while, and then proudly brought two plump fish to Mo Yan, dropping them on the ground and pawing at her shoes with wet paws, making a pleading noise.
“Haha, this guy really is a glutton, but he’s so cute. It makes me want to get a little dog to keep!” Liu Tinglan, noticing the commotion, sat up and patted Xiao Hua’s head with affection.
Mo Yan also sat up and gave Xiao Hua’s neck a gentle rub, then said with distaste, “Why don’t you take this guy back with you? I’ve had enough of him.”
Before Liu Tinglan could respond, Xiao Hua let out a “woof” and lunged at Mo Yan, its large head nuzzling against her chest with enthusiastic affection, its pleading noises turning into low whines of desperation.
“Ugh—damn it, that hurts!” Mo Yan winced and muttered a curse, pushing the furry head away with some force. “Go away, you little rascal, get off me!”
The scolded Xiao Hua stopped nuzzling, looking at Mo Yan with confusion and distress. Its wolf-like eyes were filled with an expression of hurt and bewilderment: Was Mo Yan really disgusted with it?
Liu Tinglan, startled, saw the sweat beads forming on Mo Yan’s forehead and worriedly asked, “Mo Yan, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Mo Yan looked up, her face a bit pale but not showing signs of illness. She awkwardly smiled and explained, “It’s nothing, just that this guy is rubbing too hard, and it’s a bit painful.”

Since last year, Mo Yan’s previously flat body had begun to develop, but despite drinking spiritual spring water daily and eating fruit and vegetables rich in spiritual energy, she couldn’t alleviate the awkward physical discomfort. In fact, because her body had been thoroughly enhanced by the spiritual spring water, her senses were more acute than usual, making the pain feel several times more intense.
Liu Tinglan initially didn’t understand, but then she seemed to recall something, her face showing realization as she glanced at Mo Yan’s chest and stifled a laugh.
Seeing Liu Tinglan’s reaction, Mo Yan suddenly felt embarrassed. She glared at the “culprit,” and, in a huff, grabbed a knife, stood up, and went to clean the fish by the water.
Xiao Hua, understanding its owner’s words but not knowing what it had done wrong, had its face covered in fur but its helpless eyes clearly visible, causing Liu Tinglan to laugh uncontrollably, unable to stop.
As punishment, Mo Yan kept the deliciously crispy fish for herself, giving one to Liu Tinglan and leaving none for Xiao Hua, not even the tail.
Xiao Hua gulped and, seeing that it couldn’t get any scraps from Mo Yan, turned its longing gaze to the remaining half fish with Liu Tinglan. Its pitiful look made it impossible for those enjoying the meal to continue eating.
