Jared’s suggestion seemed good, so Agnes didn’t object either.
So, the trio starts to divide the chores.
Nocturne seemed quite intrigued.
He usually slept for long hours, and when he was awake, he would spend most of his time quietly
studying or reading.
There was rarely any rural entertainment like this happening.
Indeed, after dividing tasks, their efficiency skyrocketed.

It was as though they were having a silent competition amongst themselves.
Everyone was trying to finish their tasks as quickly as possible.
In just half an hour, Jared had already filled three baskets.
Agnes, however, was the slowest. She sat on a small stool, choosing and picking vegetables.
As it went on, her attention was completely drawn to the two people competing in the yard.
Her hands naturally slowed down.
“Mom, you’re the slowest,” Nocturne said, chuckling.
Agnes also laughed, brushing off the snow from Nocturne’s hair. “Is it fun?”
Nocturne, in a rare moment of excitement, replied, “Very fun, I’ve never done this before.”
Nocturne had a little free time since he was a child, and when he was awake, he was always coding
with Nate.
Nate was introverted and didn’t like to talk much.
So Nocturne had developed a mature character under his influence.
But it was a rare sight to see him this happy.
Agnes felt that this was how a child should be.
Jared said, “You should take Nocturne inside. It’s cold out here, and his shoes are soaked. Go inside
and change them.”
Nocturne’s shoes were indeed wet, but Jared’s were even more soaked.
Agnes was a bit reluctant. She told Nocturne, “Go and change into slippers by yourself. I’ll come in
soon.”
Nocturne obediently went inside.
Agnes stayed outside with Jared to pick more vegetables, hoping to speed things up with two people.
Jared didn’t say anything.
Indeed, they were much faster.
In ten minutes, they had picked and cleaned the remaining lamb’s quarters.
When Agnes and Jared entered the house, Agnes‘ shoes were completely soaked, and her toes were
numb from the cold.
When she stood up after washing the vegetables by the well, she felt unsteady and began to fall
backward.
Luckily, Jared was right next to her. He stretched out his arm and caught Agnes.

Agnes‘ forehead hit Jared’s chin, and their bodies were pressed tightly together.
Agnes was a bit shocked, but also felt extremely awkward.
Even though it was freezing cold, Jared’s hand was somewhat warm.
He smelled of a clean, cold fragrance.
Agnes‘ heart beat faster every time she smelled this scent that was uniquely Jared’s.
Agnes softly said “Thank you,” and tried to step back.
But Jared’s arm around her waist didn’t loosen.
Instead, it tightened.
They were so close that they could hear each other’s breath.
Agnes was a bit annoyed and tried to break free.
But Jared held on to her like he was teasing her, and his arms felt like iron chains.
Agnes was trapped in his arms and couldn’t escape.
Agnes was angry As she asked, “Jared, what are you doing?”
Jared hadn’t heard this in years, Agnes‘ shy complaint.
Jared looked at Agnes, who was blushing with anger, and shamelessly realized he missed this.
Jared leaned down and kissed Agnes.
Agnes froze, her eyes wide open.
After a long kiss, Jared finally let Agnes go.
Agnes was almost holding her breath and not breathing, completely stiff.
