The man hugged her, and the warm embrace made Lu Yingying blush instantly.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Feng bent down slightly, nestled his head in the crook of her neck, and hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to pull her into his arms.
The hug left Lu Yingying breathless.
But she also sensed Xu Feng's emotions, and reached out her fair hand to gently wrap around the man's waist.
Lu Yingying said softly.
"I have something I want to tell you..."
This is her confession.
However, the person in front of her hugged her even tighter.
"I like you, will you be with me...?"
The sound startled Lu Yingying, catching her completely off guard.
At that moment, joy filled my chest and tears welled up in my eyes.
The happiest thing in the world is that the person you like also likes you.
However, hearing that Lu Yingying did not respond for a long time, Xu Feng felt even more heartbroken:
"I hope you can give me the chance to pursue you. Even if He Yu is your fiancé, I will never give up easily."
Lu Yingying was so touched that she didn't have time to reply.
Upon hearing this, he was immediately bewildered.
"Huh? What do you mean by that? Who are you saying is my fiancé?"
As she spoke, she pushed Xu Feng hard, wanting to see his face.
However, the other person still held her tightly, and Lu Yingying couldn't push him away.
She could only tap Xu Feng on the back, her tone slightly reproachful.
"You scoundrel, why are you slandering me by saying I have a fiancé!"
Xu Feng released her, but still looked intently at Lu Yingying.
"So what exactly is your relationship with He Yu?"
"He Yu? What does this have to do with him?"
Lu Yingying was even more confused.
However, she quickly realized what was happening and retorted angrily.
"That guy told you he was my fiancé?"
As she spoke, Lu Yingying lifted her skirt and prepared to confront He Yu.
Seeing Lu Yingying's reaction, Xu Feng realized that the situation might not be what he thought.
His mood improved, but he stopped Lu Yingying and said...
“You still haven’t told me about you and him… He told me that you and he grew up together, and that no one knows you better than him except for your parents.”
Lu Yingying's eyes widened as she listened.
"How dare this guy be so shameless."
Seeing Xu Feng's somewhat puzzled look, Lu Yingying patiently explained.
“He is my cousin, so we have different surnames. Because his family had an accident when he was young, he lived with my family for a while, about five or six years. After he went to high school, we didn’t see each other much.”
"Actually, we used to fight a lot when we were little. Now that we're all grown up, we seem to have a good relationship. I reluctantly consider him my brother. He doesn't really understand me at all, except for bullying me when we were little. These words are probably just him bragging. Don't take them to heart."
Hearing these words, the heavy weight on my heart inexplicably lifted.
In that case, the so-called "threat" has completely vanished.
As Lu Yingying said this, she also glanced around.
There were quite a few people around, and seeing the ambiguous looks they were giving her, Lu Yingying felt a little embarrassed and pulled Xu Feng towards the backstage.
"How dare he say that? I'm going to give him a piece of my mind later."
Lu Yingying said.
However, as soon as Lu Yingying stepped out from backstage, she felt a gust of cold wind and couldn't help but sneeze.
Xu Feng immediately took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
Lu Yingying blushed again, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.
"Let's leave it at that if you want to cause trouble, after all, he's my future brother-in-law," Xu Feng said casually.
Lu Yingying couldn't help but chuckle, then snorted, "That won't do either. He's deliberately ruining my reputation."
As she spoke, Lu Yingying whispered again.
"Besides, I haven't officially agreed to your request yet."
Upon hearing this, the man immediately gripped her hand tightly, his brows furrowing.
Why don't you want to be with me?
Lu Yingying blushed. She had already agreed in her heart, but there was still one thing that bothered her.
Where is Lin Xue?
Despite hearing Xu Feng's confession and knowing that Lin Xue's side probably just misunderstood, Lu Yingying still couldn't help but say something with a hint of jealousy.
Upon hearing the name, Xu Feng immediately frowned, slightly released Lu Yingying, and met her gaze.
"She's the one who ruined your instrument."
The man pursed his lips and continued, "Perhaps it's best if you don't get involved in this matter, so as not to affect your mood. It was all because of me that I didn't sever ties with her in time, and she even saw the photo of you in a formal suit, so she holds a grudge against you. I also bear some responsibility for this..."
Lu Yingying was also somewhat surprised when she heard what he said.
Unexpectedly, it was Lin Xue who did it. All told, she had only met Lin Xue once.
Just how much hatred did the other party harbor for her?
Of course, she was unaware that Xu Feng had coldly rejected Lin Xue without her knowledge.
Hearing Xu Feng's words, Lu Yingying did not object and said, "Then I'll let you handle things on my end. If she has a good attitude and can admit her mistakes and correct them, let's put this matter aside. Of course, compensation cannot be waived. I've used my zither for so many years, I've grown attached to it."
"However, you can't be entirely blamed for this. After all, you and she are both in the student council, so it's normal for you to have some contact..."
As Lu Yingying spoke, she realized she was getting a little jealous.
But they weren't a couple back then, so could she stop others from getting close to her?
Thinking of this, Lu Yingying became a little angry again.
Seeing this, he smiled and pinched Lu Yingying's puffed-up cheeks, speaking gently.
"If I make you misunderstand that I have ties with other men, then I am failing as your boyfriend."
"No, that would make me seem petty," Lu Yingying snorted.
"You don't need to be magnanimous."
Or rather, she has been very magnanimous.
Given the seriousness of Lin Xue's actions—intentionally damaging other people's property at a considerable cost—it's enough to warrant a lengthy prison sentence.
Hearing the man's words, Lu Yingying felt a little better.
"That's more like it..."
"So, you've agreed?"
Xu Feng looked at her intently.
"Um……"
Lu Yingying blushed and nodded gently.
Then, her hand was raised, and Xu Feng kissed the back of her hand; the place where he touched it felt slightly numb.
Looking into the burning gaze of the person in front of her, she was somewhat afraid to meet their eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like that..."
Xu Feng's gaze grew even deeper. She was wearing her own coat over her white dress, and her makeup and styling were exactly the same. Looking closely, she was even more beautiful than she had been on stage.
Even though she was already very beautiful, it wasn't enough in Xu Feng's eyes; she deserved even better.
Because you are my princess, and my darling...
