The day before the holiday, the club had a final rehearsal. They progressed very quickly and by this time the finished product was basically out. After the National Day holiday, they would use the last three days to finalize the details and could go on stage directly.
After the rehearsal, Xiang Ling took all the club members to the school hot pot restaurant for dinner. There was no club fee, and the president treated them all.
After dinner, Xiang Ling carried a small bag and took Ji Qiulin to a place with few people.
"I originally planned to give you this as a birthday present, but Su Luyang was there last time and it was inconvenient, so I didn't give it to you." Xiang Ling said as he handed the bag to Ji Qiulin.
Ji Qiulin was a little surprised. After opening his pocket, his expression was dull for a moment.
In the bag was the skirt she had liked for a long time.
"I thought that you guys were going to Singapore, and you wouldn't know many people there. If you wanted to... it would be okay to wear it." Xiang Ling's heart trembled as he spoke, because he suddenly remembered his mother's order.
It's a headache.
Ji Qiulin's eyes were red, and her voice was very low, a little like the whimper of a cub, "Thank you..."
"You're welcome. It's a pity that I might not be able to see you wearing a skirt for the first time, but if Ah Hai saw it, it means I saw it too." Xiang Ling touched Ji Qiulin's head. "Have fun over there. Don't worry about anything. Remember to keep your passports and money safe. Don't separate. You two won't be familiar with the place. If you have any questions, call me or go to the embassy."
Ji Qiulin burst out laughing: "Okay, Mom!"
Xiang Ling: “…”
Ji Qiulin was reluctant to let go of the bag. She never dreamed that she would receive her first dress at such a time.
"You too." Ji Qiulin said, "It's fun to play with Su Luyang."
"I know. Everything has been arranged. I have changed all the previously booked projects into double-person ones." Xiang Ling said.
"What about the room? Has it been upgraded?" Ji Qiulin asked.
"Upgrade? Why upgrade?" Xiang Ling was confused.
Ji Qiulin smirked, "When you two go out together, why don't you upgrade your room to a honeymoon suite? I heard they'll sprinkle heart-shaped petals on the bed!"
Xiang Ling: “……!!”
"You..." Xiang Ling was startled. "How did you know? When did you know?"
"Every time you two look at each other, the pink bubbles almost flood our dormitory. How do you think I discovered that?" Ji Qiulin said, "That's great, brother. I didn't expect that you could actually trick our school hunk into your arms."
Xiang Ling was fair and blushed easily. Facing Ji Qiulin's teasing, his entire face turned strangely red: "Don't talk nonsense, we haven't even started yet."
"Are you planning to confess your love to him when you go to France this time?" Ji Qiulin asked.
"No." Xiang Ling blurted out, but he quickly calmed down and shook his head, "I don't know either. I don't even know what's going on between us right now."
"If you want, you can tell me and I can give you some advice!" Ji Qiulin was very excited.
Xiang Ling was a little speechless.
"Have you reached that stage?" Ji Qiulin asked.
Xiang Ling hesitated for a moment before saying, "When the four of us went out to play that day, two of us held hands in the cinema."
Ji Qiulin: "...and then?"
Xiang Ling was a little excited: "What else do you want? Holding hands is already too much! We don't have any relationship at all!"
"Oh my god..." Ji Qiulin was stunned. "Brother, you are so innocent. Aren't you usually so flirty?"
Xiang Ling was irritated by this and said, "What do you mean by innocent? I'm not innocent. We...we even kissed."
Ji Qiulin: “!” Oh my goodness!
"What happened? Did you two kiss?" Ji Qiulin never expected that he would dig up such shocking news.
"No." Xiang Ling regretted not keeping his mouth shut after he finished speaking, and said in self-abandonment, "We didn't kiss. It was just that in the cinema before, we both turned our heads and he touched my face..."
Xiang Ling's face was very hot. Fortunately, it was late at night and it was pitch black, so he couldn't see anything. Otherwise, Xiang Ling would definitely not tell Ji Qiulin about this.
"You still say you're not innocent..." Ji Qiulin chuckled, "But I understand. After all, you're a virgin, a virgin in your twenties."
Xiang Ling: “…” Ah, I was really angry but I couldn’t refute it.
"But it doesn't matter. Just let it go. When you really reach that point, you'll naturally want to say it out loud and confirm your relationship immediately. You won't want to wait even a second longer, and you won't have to consider so many other issues." Ji Qiulin said, "Besides, this trip can be used as a test. Many couples break up because of travel problems. Maybe this time you two will really get together."
"My mother told me the same thing," Xiang Ling said.
"When you go to France this time, you can try to tell him about me," said Ji Qiulin.
"Ah? Why?" Xiang Ling asked, "Can you tell me?"
Ji Qiulin said seriously, "I know you have that thing in your heart. Tell him about my situation. If he thinks it's okay, then he will definitely accept yours."
Xiang Ling felt a little tearful, but he finally said, "Thank you. If you really want to tell him, you can tell him anytime, but not for this reason. It doesn't matter. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't work. I'm that old now. I won't be like a child anymore. I'll just let things take their course."
The next day, the National Day holiday officially began. Xiang Ling and Su Luyang got up at five o'clock and took a car to the airport.
The journey was very smooth and the flight took off on time. They would be sitting for about eleven or twelve hours. Xiang Ling had been a little tired in the past few days, so he put on an eye mask and fell asleep directly after getting on the plane.
Their seats weren't next to each other; there was a bit of distance between them, but they could still see each other even if they tilted their heads. For some reason, neither of them asked to change seats, and after boarding, they went about their business like two strangers, each minding their own business.
We had a safe journey and arrived in France at 11:30 am local time.
After finishing all the relevant matters at the airport and getting on the pre-booked hotel shuttle, both of them were obviously a little tired.
Su Luyang didn't sleep well on the plane. His brows were slightly furrowed and he looked uncomfortable.
Xiang Ling was very worried about his condition, but he didn't expect that after Su Luyang got in the car, he fell asleep as soon as his head tilted.
About half an hour later, they arrived at the Champs-Elysées and entered the hotel.
Xiang Ling went to the front desk to register and get the room card, and the porter delivered the luggage upstairs before them.
Xiang Ling asked in the hotel lobby: "Should we go eat or take a rest first?"
"Come to the room to eat, I want to take a shower." Su Luyang said.
Xiang Ling's expression was a little stiff. He was obviously distracted as he followed Su Luyang, but Su Luyang was probably too tired to notice.
Xiang Ling was nervous, and he didn't know what was wrong with him. After chatting with Ji Qiulin last night, Xiang Ling actually called the hotel and asked for a suite upgrade. Unfortunately, there were no rooms left, so he stubbornly requested the honeymoon service...
If nothing goes wrong, when Su Luyang opens the door, he will see a rose heart spread out on the bed.
Oh my god! How could he explain this?
Impulse is the devil.
This hotel has independent butlers for suite guests. Their butler is called Edmund. At this moment, he is walking in front with his head held high, while Su Luyang is walking behind him at a leisurely pace, giving a feeling of strolling in the garden.
Only Xiang Ling was left at the end, looking dejected, as if the Five Elements Mountain was pressing down on his back.
Edmund is French. At first, he tried to communicate in halting Chinese, but later found that both guests could speak French, so he felt at ease and spoke his native language.
The suite was on the top floor. As they went upstairs, Edmund briefly introduced the history of the hotel. When they reached the door, he opened it considerately and made a welcoming gesture to the two of them.
Su Luyang looked inside and was stunned, "Huh?"
Xiang Ling stood by and felt hopeless.
Su Luyang reacted quickly and turned his head to look at Xiang Ling subtly. Xiang Ling avoided his gaze and pretended to squat down to tie his shoelaces...
Su Luyang smiled. All the fatigue in his body disappeared in an instant. He walked in with big strides, feeling extremely happy.
Xiang Ling hesitated at the back for a while before he "tied his shoelaces" and got up and walked into the suite.
As soon as he stepped in, Xiang Ling's heart began to tremble wildly. This service really lived up to the word "honeymoon". It really was like walking into a pink bubble. France lived up to its reputation for romance. The entire suite was indeed very suitable for newlyweds.
Focus, newlyweds!
Xiang Ling was on the verge of collapse, doubting his life endlessly and wondering why he had made that sudden decision to make that call.
If he had a chance to do it again, he would definitely chop his hands, chop his hands, chop his hands!
Following Edmund, they briefly learned about the various basic facilities of the suite. The suite was very large and had Louis XVI-style furniture that Xiang Ling had specifically requested. There was no other reason, it was purely because Xiang Ling wanted to show off.
The hotel is full of flowers, and the corridors and courtyards in the middle are filled with charming fragrance. Inside the suites, because of the honeymoon service, there are really fiery red roses everywhere.
The suite has two viewing balconies, one of which has a view of the Eiffel Tower, and the other has a private swimming pool.
Looking down from the balcony on the other side of the swimming pool, you can see the classic Parisian houses. It is enough to imagine how beautiful it will be when the sun sets and the warm orange light shines on the earth.
There are two lounge chairs next to the swimming pool. On the small table in the middle of the lounge chairs, there is a bottle of champagne and two exquisite champagne glasses.
Of course, there are also red roses, which are indispensable for a honeymoon.
After the butler Edmund finished introducing the suite facilities, he prepared to leave. Standing at the door, he sincerely wished Su Luyang and Xiang Ling a pleasant seven-day trip to France.
Su Luyang and Xiang Ling expressed their gratitude and gave tips.
Edmund was very happy. He looked at Su Luyang and Xiang Ling and said the last sentence in not very fluent Chinese.
"I wish you two a happy wedding and a long and happy marriage."
Xiang Ling: “…”
Xiang Ling: “…………”
Xiang Ling: “………………”
