Chapter 202 - Is He Still Her Boyfriend?
After Lu Xun had left, Song Xing Xing went back to her bedroom and rolled around the bed as she waited for a phone call.
Knowing that someone might be eavesdropping on their conversation, the couple decided to talk again on the phone after Lu Xun had returned to the hotel.
Although Song Xing Xing did not do anything much, she was still a little tired after Lu Xun visited her parents' house. Because she was a little worried that someone might bully her boyfriend, Song Xing Xing was constantly on guard.
Fortunately, nothing had happened and everyone was behaving well.
After waiting for a while, her eyes were starting to droop and Song Xing Xing was feeling sleepy. Just as she had closed her eyes, the phone in her hand started to ring. She looked at the phone screen and her lips curved into a faint smile when she saw her boyfriend's name.
"Did you just arrived at your room?" Song Xing Xing asked.
.Because she had fallen asleep for a few minutes, her voice sounded a little groggy.
Lu Xun, who heard how her voice sounded like on the other line, was momentarily stunned. A warm feeling spread from his heart and he had this urge to pull his girlfriend into his arms. Unfortunately for him, his Song Xing Xing was too far away.
"Were you sleeping?" Lu Xun asked. His throat suddenly felt a little dry.
"Un. I fell asleep a while ago."
"Sorry." Lu Xun chuckled. "Xing Xing, it's fine if you're going to bed earlier if you're tired."
"No way." Song Xing Xing stretched out her body and yawned. "I still have some matters I wanted to ask you. "Lu Xun, you still did not tell me what you talked to my dad about earlier."
"Didn't I tell you just now? Your father only wanted to know how I will treat his daughter."
Song Xing Xing narrowed her eyes. She had a feeling that Lu Xun was not telling her the whole truth. However, no matter how much she asked, both her father and boyfriend did not want to say a thing.
"That's right. I just remember something," Song Xing Xing said. "Lu Xun, you brought a gift for every member of my family. Why didn't I see you bring anything for me?"
As she recalled how her brother had shown off the shoes he had got from Lu Xun, Song Xing Xing felt a little jealous. She knew that he had wanted to win her family members' approval. However, how could he forget about her?
Is he still her boyfriend?
"Who said I didn't bring a gift for you? I did, didn't I?" Lu Xun asked. There was a hint of tease in his voice. However, Song Xing Xing was unable to detect them.
"Really?"
Hearing that Lu Xun did not forget to bring her a gift, Song Xing Xing was immediately excited. She sat up on her bed and planned to head downstairs to look at the bags of gifts again and see if she could find something that belonged to her.
"Un. I'm your gift. Are you not happy with it?"
Song Xing Xing was unable to react well upon hearing his answer. The smile on her face gradually faded. "Lu Xun, why didn't I know that you can be this cheesy?"
His laughter could be heard on the other line.
"What's the use of a gift that I cannot keep with me?" Song Xing Xing spoke. "If you wanted to present yourself as a gift for me, then you have to be prepared to be kept by me for a long time."
His laughter halted. Song Xing Xing's words turned his imagination wild and a few images appeared in his mind. Suddenly, Lu Xun was slightly regretting that he had made this joke to her. He wanted to scold her for her provoking words but it was him who had started it. It seemed that he would not be able to sleep well after this.
Lu Xun cleared his throat as he tried to get rid of the images in his head. "What do you want as a gift? I'll get them for you."
Song Xing Xing heaved a sigh. "Forget it. I don't want to receive a gift without reasons." It was fine if he had prepared something. But it was a different feeling if he gave her something because she had asked for it.
Lu Xun made a mental note to prepare a surprise gift to make up to his girlfriend later.
The two of them exchanged a few words.
"What did your parents think of me?" Lu Xun asked after a while.
Song Xing Xing giggled. "I don't know. I guess you are still under observation at this time."
"Oh?"
"Well, my mother seemed to think that there is no problem if we continued to date. As for my father... at least he is not against it."
A thought came to his mind and Lu Xun could not help but ask, "Xing Xing, tell me the truth. If your parents think that we are not suitable, will you break up with me?"
Song Xing Xing clicked her tongue disapprovingly. "What are you saying? If my parents think that we are not suitable, then I will do my best to convince them that we are very suitable. Just like my move to Capital City. Initially, my parents were against me moving to find a job there. It might take some time, but as long as they are assured that I am happy, my parents would not be against it."
A smile appeared on his face as Lu Xun heard that she was not going to give up on their relationship easily.
It was not easy for him to finally found someone he like. Lu Xun did not want this relationship to end.
Lu Xun could still remember the day that he had found her with that producer beside her. Lu Xun had thought that she was drugged and had fallen into someone's trap. He tried to help her but it turned out that she was only pretending and had her plan to escape such a tricky situation.
Then, she had also helped him to get out of such a situation when someone had schemed against him at the place where he least expected it.
Lu Xun knew that Song Xing Xing is someone who can protect herself well.
Song Xing Xing's father had told him that his daughter could be a little immature. However, Lu Xun thought that this girl can be really matured when she needed to be.
He liked that she can be strong at a time and soft and cuddly at another time.
Perhaps, she only acted childishly and spoiled around the people that she could trust very much. Thinking of how this girl had often acted coquettishly around him after they had started dating made his heart raced in excitement. This meant that Song Xing Xing trusted him, right?
