Chapter 283 - The First, The Last
The group only returned to the residence in the evening.
Last night, Song Xing Xing did not get enough sleep after too much excitement. The moment she returned to her room, Song Xing Xing decided to take a quick nap.
When she woke up again, Song Xing Xing checked her phone and saw a text from Lu Xun, telling her to inform him when she had woken up.
Song Xing Xing went to the bathroom and splashed some cold water on her face. After putting on light make-up, she left her room and went to find Lu Xun in his room.
"Why didn't you tell me you're awake? I can go and find you." Lu Xun patted her head as she leaned over to rest her head on his chest.
A faint smile curled on his lips. This girl was behaving like a cute kitten again.
"Well, I miss you." Song Xing Xing wrapped her arms around his waist and snuggled to find a comfortable space on him.
Lu Xun chuckled. "How am I going to move like this?" Seeing that the person in his embrace did not move, Lu Xun decided to lift her and carry her into his room.
Song Xing Xing exclaimed in surprise when her feet left the ground. A few seconds later, she was seated on the sofa. The two of them were staring at each other face to face with their nose almost met.
"What are you doing?" Song Xing Xing leaned on the sofa and looked away shyly. Her gaze stopped at his desk and she saw that he had his laptop on. "Are you working again?"
"I was just looking at some documents to kill some time." Lu Xun finally leaned over to peck at her lips. "Are you hungry? Do you want to go and eat something?"
"Let's go and call my brother and eat together."
"Your brother is not here."
"Where did he go to?"
After arriving in D Town, her brother would often leave on his own and go to have fun without her. Song Xing Xing was a little dissatisfied. She wondered just where did Long Fei had kidnapped her brother?
"Long Fei invited him out to visit a few places. Since we are leaving tomorrow, Song Wei said that h wanted to go and look around."
Song Xing Xing decided to forget about her brother. She placed both hands on her cheeks and looked at Lu Xun with her bright eyes. "Then, there are only the two of us here?"
Lu Xun saw the mischievous look on her face and laughed. He pinched the tip of her nose and spoke, "What are you thinking?"
"Nothing." She leaned into his arms and said, "Just that, we're going to get busy again after we return to Capital City. I just wanted to spend my time sticking on you."
His gaze softened. Lu Xun leaned over to kiss her lips and spoke, "Let's go and grab something to eat. Then, we'll go out and walk around the place."
Song Xing Xing naturally had no objection.
The couple ate some local dishes that the chef had prepared for them. Song Xing Xing looked at the amount of food she had eaten and sighed.
These past few days, she has been eating, sleeping, and playing around a lot. It looks like she will have to go on a diet when she returned to Capital City.
After having their dinner and walking around, Song Xing Xing went out to check on her brother. However, she was not surprised when she noticed that Song Wei had not returned to his room.
Song Xing Xing texted her brother and found out that Long Fei took him out fishing again and they will only return before dusk.
They really left the large courtyard to both her and Lu Xun...
Song Xing Xing thought that the Long family was really generous.
Meanwhile, when Lu Xun knew that his friend had taken Song Wei out, his expression gradually changed. He suddenly recalled how he had run into Long Fei in that convenience store earlier that day.
With no one around, Song Xing Xing decided to hang around with Lu Xun.
Song Xing Xing watched as he packed a few items in his luggage and asked, "When will we be leaving tomorrow?"
"After lunch. Long Fei had arranged for us to have a meal with his family."
Song Xing Xing knew about the Long family and wondered if they were going to see Long Fei's grandfather, a reputable person in the country.
Lu Xun zipped his luggage halfway before he went to sit down next to her. The moment he sat down, Song Xing Xing leaned into his body and clasped their hands together. He looked at their intertwined hands and could not stop smiling.
The ring on her finger was a little dazzling. Thinking that this person had agreed to marry him made him happy. Subconsciously, his hand tightened around hers. He lifted her hands and kissed them.
"I think I'm pretty lucky."
Lu Xun lowered his gaze when he heard her speak. His girl was staring at the ring on her finger. After a few seconds, Song Xing Xing finally looked up and meet his gaze.
She flashed him a smile and adjusted her position so that she was laying on his lap. Then, Song Xing Xing stared at the ring on her finger again and twirled the ring on her finger. It felt a little strange to wear this ring. But each time that she look at it, her heart warmed and her lips would subconsciously tilt up.
Lu Xun did not say a word and only waited for her to continue speaking.
"When my friends were busy with their puppy love, I have never thought about them." She looked at him again and spoke, "I heard that not many people were lucky enough to marry their first love. This is my first time liking someone and that person had already asked me to marry him."
Lu Xun had always known that he was Song Xing Xing's, first love.
It was her first time liking someone but from early on, he had let her experience heartbreak as well.
When he thought of that time when he had chosen to push her away, Lu Xun was suddenly filled with regret.
His first love had hurt him deeply and left a big scar. Time might have healed them but later, he was too scared to love again.
Lu Xun thought that meeting Song Xing Xing was something that happened at the right moment and time. If he had met her earlier than this, perhaps he would continue to be stubborn.
Fortunately, he came to his senses and had given them a chance. If he had really let her go, he would never experience this feeling as he had now.
He felt happier with Song Xing Xing around.
As the thought came to his mind, Lu Xun lowered his head and started to kiss the girl.
Song Xing Xing might not be his first love but she will be the last.
