Chapter 143: The Beach
Before long, the sound of the bathroom door opening came from the room, and a beautiful figure slowly walked into the living room.
“Mo… Mo Ziyang, how… how do I look…”
It was Lin Muxi, standing in front of her good bro for the first time in a swimsuit. Her shy little face was blushing, her head slightly lowered, and her eyes peeked at him now and then, secretly checking his reaction.
She wore a cute light-blue swimsuit. Thin straps wrapped over her slender shoulders, and the front was slightly raised, showing the faint curves of a girl just starting to grow up.
The skirt part was short, made of three layers. The top two were light-blue wavy ruffles, and the bottom layer had white lace trim. The layers swayed gently with her small body, sometimes revealing a little glimpse of the “secret scenery” underneath.
Lin Muxi nervously held one arm with her other hand, looking down shyly. Her pale, slender legs made her look even more delicate.
In Mo Ziyang’s eyes, she was like an angel who had just stepped down into the world. Pure, cute, and impossibly lovely.
Too cute…
Staring blankly, Mo Ziyang suddenly felt like he must have been some great hero who saved the galaxy in his past life, to be rewarded in this life with such an adorable girlfriend. And the best part, she was his good bro.
“H-hey… say something already…”
Seeing him just staring and not moving, Lin Muxi’s face, already red, turned even redder. It was too embarrassing, what was he thinking about, just staring like that without saying a word?
Feeling flustered, she gripped her own arm tighter, and with her other hand, she pinched the hem of her skirt, looking even more shy.
Luckily, the one in front of her was Mo Ziyang, her good bro, and her future “husband.” If it had been a stranger here, Lin Muxi would have definitely run away at top speed and found a hole to hide in.
When she noticed her good bro still looking like he wanted to say something but didn’t, her blushing face showed a trace of dissatisfaction. She pouted her lips, glanced at him with displeasure, and finally pulled him back to his senses.
“I never realized before… but you look amazing in this swimsuit.”
Mo Ziyang slowly lifted Lin Muxi’s small hand, pulled her closer, and then, not satisfied with just that, wrapped her in his arms.
Lin Muxi was, of course, happy at his reaction. But being hugged so suddenly made her soft, pale skin press closely against him. Wherever his cheek and hand touched her, the feeling made her small body squirm uncomfortably.
“Uu~ Mo Ziyang… that tickles…”
The problem was, one of her hands was still clutching her skirt, so she only had one hand free to push against his head. She twisted and turned, trying to escape his embrace.
Well… that was just the difference of being in a girl’s body.
Her light pushing eventually turned into playful little slaps. After struggling for a while, she finally wriggled free from his arms.
“Sorry, you were just too cute, I couldn’t hold back.”
Looking at the little “wife” in front of him glaring at him with a scolding face, Mo Ziyang scratched his head awkwardly.
It could only be blamed on him not being able to hold back for a moment. But in Lin Muxi’s eyes, Mo Ziyang apologizing like that actually had a special charm to it, making her feel a deep sense of satisfaction inside.
Standing in front of her good bro, even though her little face was still a bit hot, Lin Muxi still put both hands on her slim waist. With a slightly unhappy tone, she urged him.
“Hmph… hurry up and change already. How long do you want me to wait here?”
“Alright, alright, I’ll go change now, okay?”
Seeing her acting so proud yet impatient, Mo Ziyang couldn’t help but find it funny. He had no choice but to pack the things he had prepared for the beach into a small bag and let this impatient little dummy go wait at the beach first.
When he went into the bathroom to change into swimming trunks, Lin Muxi’s unhappy expression immediately disappeared. Her lips curved into a sweet smile without her even noticing.
Being praised by her good bro filled her with happiness she couldn’t explain. Her heart beat faster, and she quickly slipped on a pair of slippers before heading out the door.
As the door opened, a cool sea breeze carrying the salty smell of the ocean blew across her face. Her long hair lifted up and danced in the air with the wind.
“The sea! I’m coming!”
Lin Muxi’s eyes lit up as she looked at the ocean right in front of her. Excited, she opened her arms and ran toward the beach, not even caring when her slippers flew off while running.
But the moment her pale little feet stepped onto the sand, burning hot from the midday sun, she regretted not going back to pick up her slippers right away.
“Ahhh! Hot, hot, hot! Why is the sand so hot?!”
Knowing it was too late to turn back, Lin Muxi clenched her teeth and ran on tiptoe with tiny, quick steps toward the part of the beach closer to the sea where the sand was wet.
After all, no matter how hot the sun was, the seawater couldn’t possibly be hot too. Otherwise, all the people who had gone into the sea before would have been boiled like dumplings.
Right now, Lin Muxi looked just like a cat on a hot pan, panicking as she rushed across the beach. Thankfully, the beach didn’t disappoint her. The moment her soft little feet touched the cool wet sand, a refreshing chill spread up from her soles.
Panting heavily, Lin Muxi finally stopped to catch her breath. For her weak body, even a little bit of running was too much. Otherwise, she wouldn’t always end up with weak legs and unable to get out of bed whenever her good bro teased her at home.
This private beach was wide, so wide she could run back and forth freely. Not far from the shore, there were also beach umbrellas and lounge chairs set up.
If she didn’t know this was a private beach, Lin Muxi would have thought it was a place for parties.
But what caught her attention wasn’t any of that. It was the little tools placed beside the lounge chairs for building sandcastles, like small shovels and different kinds of plastic buckets.
Carrying Mo Ziyang’s small bag, Lin Muxi set it down next to the lounge chair. Then she squatted down and started looking curiously at the toys, until Mo Ziyang gently knocked her little head from behind.
