Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

Xie Xiao reached out and covered the hands that were covering his eyes, feeling the warmth of Luo Yanran's palms.

Instead of removing her hands, Xie Xiao chuckled and said, "Let me guess, huh? Such a deep voice, hmm, it definitely isn't my cute wife, her voice is always soft and gentle..."

Before he could finish speaking, the hands over his eyes were released, and a soft body pressed against his back.

That body skillfully maneuvered from behind to in front of him.

Then, pulling his hands down, she wrapped them around herself. "Hold me!"

Her voice deliberately fierce, "If not your wife, then who!?"

Xie Xiao laughed, quickly bending down to kiss her on the face, "Of course, it's my wife who gets ruffled so easily~"

The happiness and laughter in Luo Yanran's eyes could not be hidden.

She lifted her face towards Xie Xiao and pouted, the hint couldn't be more obvious.

Xie Xiao understood, and his next kiss landed on her lips.

The scene that Kang Hui walked in on was just that.

It hit him hard, bro. He had just experienced a sorrowful heartbreak, and now he was witnessing the girl he had feelings for being affectionate with her boyfriend right in front of him. What kind of cruel world was this?

However, he saw the happy smile on Luo Yanran's face.

This was a different her from what he remembered.

In Kang Hui's memory, Luo Yanran was always the type to maintain a social distance from others.

Even when she was smiling, there was still a sense of distance.

But now, she was beaming at the boy in front of her, and even from afar, he could feel her joy.

She took the initiative to wrap her arms around Xie Xiao's waist and kissed his lips.

The two were in a private space no one else could intrude upon, a different Luo Yanran.

Kang Hui knew that Luo Yanran had been telling the truth, it had always been this boy named Xie Xiao, and he was truly fortunate.

Finally, he turned and left.

Meanwhile, the young couple only had eyes for each other, "What are we eating tonight?"

With one hand around her waist and the other taking her briefcase, Xie Xiao asked.

Luo Yanran pulled out her phone, "I saw a new place nearby last night while browsing, let's give it a try."

"Okay." As long as I'm with you, anything is good.

In the end, the couple did go to the newly opened restaurant, but the food was quite average,

and they went home after eating.

As soon as they entered, Xie Xiao pressed Luo Yanran against the door and kissed her passionately. Was it like a new marriage after a long separation?

Anyway, both were somewhat excited.

The briefcase and Xie Xiao's backpack were dropped on the floor, but no one cared.

Xie Xiao, with Luo Yanran in his arms, effortlessly entered the bedroom in the unlit room.

Once, they were so carried away that they did it right on the sofa, which ended up being ruined. Since then, Xie Xiao had no chance to try other places.

His wife wouldn't allow it.

...

After everything was over, Xie Xiao turned on the bedroom light.

Luo Yanran lay on top of him, burying her face in his chest, unaccustomed to the light.

Xie Xiao stretched out his hand and touched her back—the air conditioning had been turned on late, and both of them were sweating profusely at this point.

Luo Yanran couldn't stand it any longer. "I need a bath."

Xie Xiao hummed in response, his voice still a bit husky, "Shall I run a bath for you to soak in?"

Luo Yanran grumbled and voluntarily climbed off him.

Xie Xiao couldn't resist and gave her waist a gentle pat.

Then he got slapped on the hand, quite fiercely at that.

Xie Xiao laughed and got up from the bed to run water in the bathroom. He then went out to bring back a glass of honey water.

Luo Yanran lay there, lazily playing with her phone.

"Have a drink. Why are you acting like a gaming addict?" Xie Xiao reached out and touched her head.

Luo Yanran obediently sat up and drank a few sips of water with his help, "I can't help it, work is so busy now."

Her statement was just that, a statement, not a complaint.

Xie Xiao put down the glass and thought of the questions his parents had asked.

But he didn't ask her right then. Instead, he took Luo Yanran with him to soak in the bath. Once they were both relaxed, Xie Xiao finally spoke. "Have you thought about whether you want to stay in City B or go back home in the future?"

Luo Yanran, who had been leaning against his chest, paused when she heard this, and looked up at him, "Why do you ask?"

"No reason. It's just that we're about to graduate, right?" Xie Xiao did not mention it was his parents who inquired, afraid that it might trouble her.

If Luo Yanran knew it was his parents who asked, she would surely guess their thoughts and likely just go along with what they wanted, heading back home directly.

But Xie Xiao wanted to know whether she preferred to stay or leave.

Luo Yanran fell silent for a moment, then sighed, "We're both only children; we might have to choose to go back eventually. Otherwise, our families will worry."

"What do you think?" Xie Xiao asked, "Without considering our families, what are your thoughts?"

Luo Yanran glanced at him, then said honestly, "If it's what I want, I definitely prefer to stay here. My career hasn't even started yet, and your company is here too, right? We're still young..."

While speaking, she looked at Xie Xiao and asked, "Am I being a little too selfish?"

Xie Xiao, however, smiled and said, "Not at all. That's your genuine desire. We indeed are still young. Let's stay here, and when we feel like going back, we'll go back."

Xie Xiao's voice was reassuring. "You said it yourself; we're young, and our parents are young as well. We don't need to worry so much."

Luo Yanran hummed in agreement and after a while asked, "Did your uncle and aunt ask you about this?"

Luo Yanran, having spent a long time with Xie Xiao's family, had some understanding of their character.

And since Xie Xiao had just returned from home and suddenly posed this question, he must have heard something there.

Xie Xiao did not deny it, as there was nothing that needed to be hidden.

But still, he said, "Don't get me wrong, my parents didn't mean anything by it. They just wanted to know where we would like to settle in the future, considering buying us a house."

Luo Yanran sat up in surprise, "Don't buy a house in City B, the property prices are too high!"

She had tried to stop her father from buying one before as well, but without success.

The parents of Xie Xiao were different from her own father; it was certain their family couldn't just produce such a large sum of money all at once—it really wasn't necessary.

Xie Xiao patted her arm soothingly, "Don't worry, I know. I already said we can buy it ourselves."

Luo Yanran blinked, then said earnestly and innocently, "You might be able to afford it, but I can't. My current salary is three thousand a month, not enough to support myself."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Xie Xiao was amused by her and couldn't help but pin her down on the edge of the bathtub and lean in for a kiss, one hand around her neck, filled with a desire to possess, "Then, why don't you please me, and I'll support you, how about that?"

Luo Yanran's body involuntarily shrank back, the sensation of someone else's warm hand around her neck wasn't particularly pleasant.

She met Xie Xiao's passionate gaze, blinked, and obediently kissed him, "Then support me~"
