Chapter 238 What are your plans?
After seeing off all the relatives and friends, it was already past midnight when the bridesmaids and groomsmen were finally able to rest. Everyone was exhausted, so without saying much, they all took taxis home.
Xiang Yun stood at the door waiting. Perhaps he was a little tired after a busy day. He held the autographed copy of Qin You's book that he had gotten for Cui Yuyue.
When Xu Songning finished handling the matter and came out in her high heels, she saw Xiang Yun's back and felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She walked quickly over, the clatter of her high heels clearly audible in the quiet night.
Xiang Yun stubbed out his cigarette and helped her up. "Why are you walking so fast?"
"How did you know it was me?" Xu Songning asked.
Xiang Yun smiled. "How could I not tell?"
He had a faint smell of smoke on him, but it wasn't unpleasant.
Xu Songning leaned over and sniffed his neck. Xiang Yun leaned back slightly. "Is the smell of smoke strong?"
"It's not strong. I've been wanting to ask you something for a long time: what perfume do you use? It smells so good. Is it always this one?" Xu Songning sniffed and asked curiously.
Xiang Yun took her hand and walked back, saying, "It's the same brand, I'll give you a bottle."
"I don't want it, you spray it on yourself, it smells better." Xu Songning followed with a smile.
On the way home, Xiang Yun drove very steadily, while Xu Songning tilted her head and fell asleep in the car.
The car stopped, but Xiang Yun didn't rush to call her. Instead, he took out a thin ribbon from his pocket and gently tied it around Xu Songning's middle finger to measure her finger circumference.
Xu Songning's breathing was very light, and he did not react to it.
Xiang Yun put away the marked ribbons and woke Xu Songning up.
Xu Songning rubbed his eyes, complaining that he was too sleepy and wanted to go back to sleep.
Back home, the two took a shower and then got into bed.
Xu Songning pressed his finger against Xiang Yun's lips. "Brother Yun, I'm warning you, no early mornings, no morning runs. I'm going to sleep until I naturally wake up, and that includes you sleeping with me."
"..."
With his lips pressed against hers, Xiang Yun couldn't bring himself to refuse, so he simply nodded.
Xu Songning withdrew her hand with satisfaction, only to be caught halfway by someone else. She bit her fingertip and mumbled, "Stop messing around."
Then he fell into a deep sleep.
Even Xiang Yun slept for a long time after that.
With the blackout curtains drawn in the bedroom, the sun is out, and no light can get in.
Xu Songning didn't open her eyes until she got hungry.
Xiang Yun was indeed still in bed with her, pressing her head against his chest, while he raised his hand to fiddle with his phone.
"Brother Yun, I'm hungry, let's order takeout," Xu Songning said sullenly.
Xiang Yun patted her back. "Get up, I'll go make dinner."
"Don't do it, it's too much trouble." Xu Songning wrapped her arms and legs around him, not wanting him to get up. She just wanted Xiang Yun to stay with her a little longer.
Xiang Yun had no choice but to indulge her, so they decided to order takeout, since he also didn't really want to get out of bed.
After ordering takeout, Xiang Yun went to wash up first. Xu Songning didn't stop him, but clung to him and followed him to brush his teeth. However, when washing her face at the end, she snuggled up to Xiang Yun and insisted that he help her wipe her face.
Xiang Yun didn't mind the trouble and helped her wipe the water off her face. "Alright, go lie down."
"Ding-dong, ding-dong."
The doorbell rang.
"Is the takeout here?" Xu Songning lay back on the bed, her beautiful eyes peeking out.
Only half an hour has passed since they ordered takeout; that's incredibly fast.
Xiang Yun kissed her forehead, put on a sleeveless vest, and went to get the takeout.
As soon as the door opened, an unexpected person was standing outside.
Xiang Yun paused for only a second before immediately stepping aside to let the person in.
"Aunt……"
Ms. Xu, carrying two suitcases, smiled happily. "I moved up my return to China. Song Ning told me that Qiao Qiao is getting married soon, so I thought I'd fly back as soon as possible. I hope I didn't miss it!"
"Brother Yun, Brother Yun!" Xu Songning's voice came from the master bedroom, getting more and more excited as he shouted.
Xiang Yun coughed lightly and pushed the suitcase onto the balcony. "Please have a seat. Song Ning hasn't gotten up yet."
"Brother Yun, where are my clothes? Where did I take them off last night?" Xu Songning shouted.
The master bedroom door was open, and these words were clearly heard in the living room.
Ms. Xu pretended not to hear and said, "I'm going to get some water. You guys go ahead with your work."
Before Xiang Yun could explain, her ears turned red, and she rushed out and slammed the door to the master bedroom shut.
"I found some clothes." Xu Songning turned her back to him, put on a piece of clothing, and it barely covered her buttocks.
Her smooth back was beautiful, and her two straight legs were slender and long, but at this moment, Xiang Yun did not appreciate them.
Xiang Yun stopped her, "Put your clothes on properly."
"Isn't this how you usually dress?" Xu Songning asked, puzzled.
"Auntie is back."
"Which auntie?" Xu Songning blinked, her senses finally returning to normal. She asked, "...My mom?"
Xiang Yun nodded heavily.
Xu Songning came out after changing her clothes and saw Ms. Xu sitting on the sofa. She went over and asked happily, "Mom, why didn't you tell me you were coming back to China?"
"Didn't I say that? I sent the message last night, but some people didn't see it," Ms. Xu scoffed.
"I was busy at Qiaoqiao's wedding banquet last night. We didn't get back until midnight. We're so tired." Xu Songning leaned on her mother's shoulder, trying to get away with it.
The next second, his head was cruelly pushed open.
"What?! Qiaoqiao is already married?" Ms. Xu exclaimed in surprise. She pulled out her phone, pointed to the date "25," and asked Xu Songning, "Didn't you say the 25th?"
“Yes, October 25th, wasn’t that yesterday?” Xu Songning said.
"Not the lunar calendar?"
"It's the Gregorian calendar..."
"Xu Songning," Ms. Xu called out softly.
Xu Songning coughed guiltily. This can't be entirely blamed on her, can it? These days, which young person still listens to the lunar calendar?
"When you get married, don't get the date wrong for your mother." Ms. Xu said with a forced smile.
Xu Songning quickly went up to comfort her, "How could this be a mistake? You're my mom, of course you have to handle it yourself, right? I already gave Qiaoqiao a gift for you, there's nothing we can do about missing it..."
"Really?" Ms. Xu didn't believe it.
Xu Songning pointed at Xiang Yun, "It's true, if you don't believe me, how can you not believe Brother Yun? He delivered it, and our family sent three gifts."
Xiang Yun confirmed for her, "Yes, Auntie."
"Alright, alright, I just can't do anything with you." Ms. Xu affectionately ruffled her hair. With Xiang Yun by her side, she seemed to be becoming more and more composed.
Xu Songning hadn't finished combing her hair yet. She pressed Xiang Yun onto the sofa to chat with Ms. Xu while she went into the room to comb her hair.
"Auntie, are you thirsty? I'll get you a bottle of water." Xiang Yun tried to get up, but Ms. Xu stopped her.
"Don't take it, Auntie isn't thirsty." Ms. Xu got straight to the point. "Xiao Xiang, Song Ning's friend is already married. What about you? What are your plans?"
