671 The Woman Who Kissed Him (2/2)
”I can't say why I've become more active. If I love a person, it's worthwhile for me. I want to loudly declare that I need you, even the neighbors have figured out that's how I'm feeling now…”
Xuxu sat at the bay window in her room and covered herself with a blanket. She gazed out of the open window, and her mouth blissfully curled upwards.
'I want to hold your hand like this and not let go. Can love be forever simple and pure without sadness?'
'I want to hold your hand like this and not let go. Can love be easy and simple without getting hurt?'
'Ah Sheng, would it be possible?'
…
Yan Rusheng stood outside Xuxu's house. He placed the bowl of noodles in her hands. After giving her the bowl, he awkwardly rubbed his empty hands together, not knowing where to settle them.
He remained at the same spot without uttering a word. It seemed that he was refusing to leave.
Xuxu feigned ignorance and knitted her eyebrows. ”Anything else?”
”Nothing.” Yan Rusheng shook his head. He was preparing to go back into his house when he suddenly mustered up his courage and turned back to look at Xuxu. ”Xuxu, tomorrow I'll be taking the morning flight. Tomorrow morning…”
Xuxu smiled. ”I've yet to finish the eggs and bread.”
”Ok.” Yan Rusheng nodded his head and his eyes glinted with a flash of disappointment. ”Then… then you have an early night after your dinner.”
Xuxu replied with an 'Mm' and was about to turn back into her house.
Yan Rusheng's reluctant voice sounded from behind her again. ”Xuxu, good night.”
”Yan Rusheng!” Suddenly, Xuxu halted her steps.
Yan Rusheng paused, and in the next moment, a cold feeling landed on his face in a flash.
It momentarily stunned him. By the time he recovered from his shock, the woman who had planted a kiss on him had already gone back into her house and shut the door.
He was still slightly dazed. He touched the area of his face where the kiss landed. It felt like a dream.
After some time, the corners of his mouth curled up slowly before breaking into a broad smile. He was as excited as a child.
