105 Chapter 105 : Running towards spring (2/2)

”Okay, I won't tease you anymore. How about I give you a long list of songs to pick? But I think it's useless. Usually, a theme couple song imprints them if the song was randomly played during a romantic moment.” Nuo Shu mentions. While they converse, she quickly opens her music playlist on her laptop and started browsing for some love songs to send to Xiulan.

”Ugh. Complicated.” Xiulan grumbles. She had a quick vision of how they will get their theme song. She imagined a lot of possible cringe moments.

Nuo Shu chuckled from her sister's reaction. ”I'm telling you, that's how you get a theme couple song!”

”Alright, big sis. It's getting late. I'm going to sleep.” Xiulan didn't like where the conversation was going so she quickly ended the call.

Xiulan heaved a long sigh while she lays on the huge bed. ”No, Hongqi. You aren't supposed to fall in love that quick.” she silently mutters and she has an obvious troubled expression.

”Men in love are troublesome.” she softly and quietly mumbled. She really hopes that Hongqi was just excited about all the sweet nothings they shared in bed.

Romance and love are too early for them. They just got cozy with each other just a few months ago. She felt like this is too fast for a man like Hongqi. Very impossible!

Though it's just a speculation, still it bothered her. It bothered her so much to the point that she became exhausted from thinking too much and she eventually succumbed to sleep.

The day flew by quickly and Hongqi seems to be still insisting that love song. Xiulan kept telling him that a theme song should imprinted from a special moment, not declaring it.

Hongqi only pouted and was deeply disappointed that they can't easily have a normal couple life. He wanted to use that song for his confession but damn, why is it so hard?

With the days ending briskly, it eventually reached the day that Xiulan has to visit the Ling family inn.

”Your mother's family sure are very demanding in this matter. Why can't they just hire an investigator and lure that damn woman?” Hongqi was at it again and kept complaining about the Ling family. He just can't take it that the Ling family had the audacity to use his wife for their own problems.

He was supposed to act as a husband in distress so she would be clueless about his plans but it can't be helped that he's actually really distressed.

”Hongqi, I'm helping my mom. The Ling family are useless when it comes to confrontation.” Xiulan tries to pacify him for the nth time while she packs the remaining toiletries.

Hongqi angrily crossed his arms. ”Why does it have to be for one month? How about me? Your husband? You know what, I can easily put that woman behind bars!”

”Shhh! Please, shut up! It's just one month.” Xiulan glared at him. She can't believe this husband is making tantrums! When he left for long business trips she never displayed such temper in front of him. Does he think this issue can be easily solved? There are a lot of conflicts behind this problem.

Hongqi pouted and quickly went near his wife. ”I'll visit you there, I promise!”

”You don't have to. Just stay here and be a nice husband.” Xiulan made a 'no you don't' face to him. As possible she doesn't want Hongqi to interact with the Ling family that much.

She remembers during her wedding, the Ling family had a distasteful look on their faces when they found out that she married Xing Hongqi. Of course, they got more enraged when they knew it was the hated son-in-law, Song Yingpei, who initiated such atrocities.

With all the gossips lurking around the infamous Xing Hongqi, they don't want their precious niece to end up with him. The Song sisters are controversial when it comes to their failed marriage, so the Ling family were slightly alarmed that Xiulan got married to a womanizer. It's the end, the image of the Song sisters are doomed.

Xiulan left the suite after an hour of having a couple's argument with Hongqi. It'll take three hours before she arrives in the Ling family inn. She napped during her travel and she didn't notice that her paranoid husband already sent her a lot of messages and missed calls.
