"Shall we return now?" Yuan suggested.
Suddenly, an amazing and very romantic idea struck Julie as she listened to Yuan's words. She couldn't help but think, 'Isn't the sunset quite beautiful from the riverside? How about I bring Yuan to watch the sunset together with him? It will be quite romantic.'
"How about we watch the sunset together from the riverside of our village before we return home? The sunset looks very beautiful from there as the sunlight filters through the peak of Pine Mountain," Julie proposed to Yuan a moment later, her voice filled with anticipation. Her cheeks showed a faint blush as she spoke.
'Sunset, huh? Sounds like a perfect romantic idea...' Yuan thought inwardly.
A second later, Yuan turned to Ava and asked, "How about you, Ava? Do you want to watch the sunset with me as well?"
Julie narrowed her eyes at Ava, eagerly awaiting her response.
'Watching the sunset with Yuan? Ahhhh... So romantic!' Ava thought. The mere thought made her heart race and her cheeks warm as a faint blush appeared.
Ava shyly replied, "Naturally... I also want to watch the sunset with you, Yuan..."
Julie's eyes lit up after hearing her little sister's words, and she said excitedly, "That settles it then, little sis. Let's watch the sunset together with our lover, shall we?"
"Yes, big sister..." Ava nodded shyly, her face still blushing.
'Watching the sunset with two beauties, this is life! Many people would envy a moment like this with someone as lovely as Julie or Ava... I'm truly blessed in this life,' Yuan thought inwardly, glancing at Ava and Julie's beautiful figures.
"Alright, both of you, let's get going, or we might miss the sunset..." Yuan said with a chuckle.
Ava and Julie stared at each other with a blank expression upon hearing the word 'miss' from Yuan, quickly rising from their seats.
"Let's hurry!" Julie exclaimed.
"Yuan, we can't miss the sunset!" Ava added, turning to Yuan.
Watching their childish behavior, Yuan couldn't help but slightly shake his head and let out a small chuckle.
Julie frowned at him and said, "Yuan, what are you smiling about?"
"Oh, it's nothing, let's go..." Yuan quickly replied with a slight smile.
Afterward, Ava and Julie both took hold of Yuan's hands and pulled him along with them as they walked out of the restaurant. As they strolled through the bustling village streets, many pedestrians couldn't help but stare at them, as two beautiful young girls were pulling Yuan along.
Ava and Julie ignored the curious glances and continued to move forward, pulling Yuan with them.
Some time later, the three of them arrived at the riverside of the village. The river was rocky and small, its water crystal clear. On closer inspection, colorful fish could be seen darting between the rocks, some of them quite large.
Yuan was stunned by the beauty of the surroundings – the open grassland, the mountain, and the trees – it all felt surreal and almost unbelievable.
"This river flows straight down from the mountain, which is why the water is so clear. Not only that, the water from this river is quite beneficial; we use it for all our farming, and it helps the plants grow faster and healthier," Julie explained, her gaze fixed on Yuan's handsome face, a smile gracing her lips.
"Indeed, thanks to this river, our village has transformed from a poor, small village to what it is today. It's all thanks to my father and my big sister, Rose," Ava added, gazing at the river in a daze.
'I see, so this is the secret of the village's astonishing prosperity. This must be why Harrison returned to this village and built a residence here. A merchant like him wouldn't return without a good reason,' Yuan thought to himself.
A few seconds later, Julie pointed at a large rock and suggested, "Let's go and sit on that huge rock over there. We can get a better view of the sunset from there."
Yuan gazed toward the massive rock that Julie had pointed to. Its high edge hung above the river, offering an ideal spot to witness the sunset.
With a smile, he agreed, "Definitely, let's sit there..."
The three of them carefully climbed atop the massive rock, and Yuan assisted both Ava and Julie as they ascended, mindful of the dresses they were wearing.
"Thanks..." they both shyly murmured once they reached the top.
Yuan shook his head, offering reassurance, "No problem, and besides, it's my duty to help my women with anything they find difficult."
'His women...' Ava and Julie echoed the phrase inwardly, their cheeks flushed with embarrassment. 'He really called us his women... Is this real and not a dream? If this is a dream, I don't want to wake up,' they both thought in unison.
Although Yuan had confessed his feelings for them, it still felt unreal to them, as everything had happened so quickly, leaving little time to process it all.
Afterward, the three of them settled on the edge of the rock and awaited the sunset, with Yuan in the middle and Ava and Julie on either side.
A few minutes later, it finally happened. As the sun dipped below the horizon, Yuan, Ava, and Julie found themselves perched on the edge of a colossal rock overlooking the rugged river below.
The warm hues of the setting sun painted the sky in shades of crimson and gold, creating a breathtaking backdrop for the trio.
Yuan couldn't help but steal glances at both Ava and Julie, his heart torn between two remarkable souls.
The gentle breeze tousled their hair, and the soft murmurs of the river below filled the air, creating a serene atmosphere.
In that moment, the world seemed to slow down, and Yuan's feelings grew stronger with each passing second.
His heart swelled with affection for both of them, their laughter and conversation a symphony to his ears.
The romantic tableau before them mirrored the complex emotions in his heart, leaving him yearning for a future where love could find its way through the intricacies of his heart.
Ava's eyes sparkled like stars as she gazed at the fading sun, while Julie's smile radiated warmth that rivalled the sun's dying rays.
Yuan's heart was torn between these two incredible women, both of whom had captured his heart in ways he had never thought possible.
As he felt the weight of their gazes upon him, he took a deep breath, the words welling up within him like a river of emotion. With trembling sincerity, he spoke, "Ava, Julie, in this breathtaking moment, I must confess that my love for both of you has grown stronger with each passing moment in this beautiful, serene environment."
"I love you both with all my heart, Ava and Julie," he declared after a moment of silence.
Ava and Julie exchanged surprised glances, their eyes filled with a mix of astonishment and affection. Did he just confess to us once again? Is this really happening?
Then, as if they had synchronized their actions, they both threw themselves into Yuan's arms, their laughter ringing out against the backdrop of the river's song.
"I love you too," Ava whispered, her voice filled with warmth.
Julie echoed her sentiments, tears of joy sparkling in her eyes. "Yes, Yuan, we love you too."
Yuan locked eyes with them for a moment and then brought his face closer to Ava's, pressing his lips against her soft, moist ones. He kissed her passionately for a brief, intense moment.
'Why did Yuan choose her again this time? He should've chosen me...' Julie grumbled inwardly, feeling a twinge of jealousy as she watched Yuan kiss her little sister.
A few minutes later, Yuan broke the kiss with Ava and released her. Playfully, he inquired, "How was it? Did you like the kiss?"
Ava's face turned a shade of crimson upon hearing Yuan's playful words. She knew he was teasing her, but the embarrassment still colored her cheeks.
After a moment, Ava shyly looked down at the river and whispered in a soft voice, "Um, I liked it... I liked the kiss..."
Yuan couldn't help but be amused by Ava's adorable embarrassment. He made a mental note to tease her more in the future.
Ava, on the other hand, felt a sudden chill down her spine but dismissed it as mere embarrassment, thinking, 'Why did I feel a sudden chill? Let's forget it; it must be because I'm feeling a bit embarrassed...' She muttered this to herself, her confusion evident.
Meanwhile, Yuan shifted his gaze to Julie's and apologized, "Julie, sorry for keeping you waiting. I hope you don't mind."
Julie replied with a playful smile, "It's totally fine, and besides, it's only a few minutes. You can make up for it by kissing me a little longer than Ava here." She licked her moist lips in a seductive manner, inviting him to kiss her immediately.
'Compensate, hmm? Sure, I can compensate it... Only a fool wouldn't pay this kind of compensation...' Yuan thought inwardly with a smile.
Without hesitation, he said, "Sure, let me compensate you..." Yuan grinned and quickly closed the distance between them.
His lips met Julie's, and he wrapped his arms around her waist, while Julie put her arms around his neck. Their kiss deepened, growing more passionate with each passing moment.
After a while, Yuan broke the kiss with Julie and spoke to both of them, "It's getting dark now; let's return home, shall we?"
Ava nodded, agreeing, "Definitely."
Julie added shyly, "Well, let's go then; they must be waiting for us to return home."
Some time later, the three of them arrived at the doorstep of the manor.
Ava took the lead, saying, "Let's go inside."
Madam Layla's playful voice greeted them as they entered the manor. She remarked, "Oh my, you guys are back from your little date, and here I was thinking you guys wouldn't be coming back until late at night. It seems I was wrong..."
