In that instant, it was as if countless fireworks exploded in her mind, and Lu Qingyan could not ignore her heart beating twice as fast.
Rong Qing's confession was nothing like him; it was simple, straightforward, and not romantic at all. Lu Qingyan felt threatened as he held her tightly in his arms.
But Lu Qingyan was ultimately willing, and she replied, "Okay."
When she cooked, he helped her pick the vegetables; when he painted, he helped her grind the ink and paint. They ate together, read together, and took walks together... Before they knew it, their lives had become intertwined with one person.
Lu Qingyan realized that she no longer had the ability to refuse him.
Rong Qing smiled with satisfaction and placed a gentle kiss on the top of Lu Qingyan's head.
She nestled in his arms, as if a rib had returned to its rightful place.
On the way back, Rong Qing said, "Qingyan, many people in your Xia Kingdom confess their love like that. Do you like it when I do it that way? If you don't like it, I'll try a different way next time."
Lu Qingyan chuckled: "Next time? Didn't I already agree this time? Why are you trying to cause trouble again?" Then, Lu Qingyan said seriously: "Rong Qing, I believe you."
I believe your confession was well thought out and not just a momentary impulse.
"I said those words to you on impulse after reading a lot of dating guides. Of course, I want to tell you that it was my truest feeling, but I felt it was too perfunctory for you. I want to confess to you seriously one more time." After calming down, Rong Qing also expressed his thoughts.
Lu Qingyan laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to be like this."
You wouldn't normally guess that Rong Qing is such a passionate person.
However, now she seems to see that all of Rong Qing's passion is reserved for her alone.
“Rong Qing, I’m planning to go back,” Lu Qingyan said. “I also plan to take you home so my uncle can meet his future son-in-law.”
Rong Qing's expression darkened when he heard the first sentence, but he became excited again when he heard the second sentence.
"Really? You're going to take me to meet your family?" Rong Qing asked Lu Qingyan to confirm.
He knew that in Xia Country, once he met the other party's parents, the marriage was practically settled. He was naturally overjoyed to hear this news.
“Of course, I’ve been away from home long enough, I can’t not go back,” Lu Qingyan said.
Two weeks ago, Lu Qingyan called Rong Xu to tell him that she had thought things through and would be home soon, and that he shouldn't worry.
However, when Rong Xu pressed her for details about when she would return, Lu Qingyan still postponed the date by half a month.
Sometimes, Lu Qingyan could only marvel at the power of fate. This city was clearly not big, but she had managed to hide from Rong Xu for several months, keeping him from finding her.
Having vented her anger enough and figured everything out, and having found the person she could spend her life with, Lu Qingyan felt that she had to go back now.
From now on, she will always remember that Rong Xu is her uncle, her elder, and the person who gave her a second life. She will take good care of him, care for him in his old age, and see him off in his final days.
The last sentence may sound ominous, but it definitely represents Lu Qingyan's truest and most respectful thoughts.
