Zhou Sui came out because she had already made an appointment with Song Qi'an to watch the fireworks together.
The last time they watched fireworks together, Song Qi'an was still heartbroken after his confession failed. The fireworks that year were beautiful, but also a little bittersweet.
This year, the two held hands and leaned close together, not even finding the smell of fireworks unpleasant.
Instead of going to crowded places, the two stood side by side on a quiet path, Song Qi'an with his arm around Zhou Sui's shoulder, looking up at the dazzling fireworks in the sky.
Fireworks exploded everywhere. Song Wanyi released Zhou Sui's hand, turned her around gently, and pulled her into her arms.
"Sui Sui, Happy New Year." The two of them would be going home before midnight, so Song Qi'an could only say Happy New Year in advance.
Zhou Sui wrapped her arms around Song Qi'an's waist. There was a faint scent of perfume on his clothes, sometimes there and sometimes not. Zhou Sui secretly took a sniff; it smelled very nice.
"Happy New Year."
Under the dazzling fireworks, the two embraced, and Song Qi'an wished he could meld Zhou Sui into his body.
Since returning home, they have had to restrain themselves from each other and can't see each other often. They have to be careful about their every move. The new year has just begun, and Song Qi'an feels that he can't take it anymore.
"I'll come to your house to wish you a Happy New Year tomorrow." He's been trying to find ways to meet Zhou Sui every day.
"Hmm?" Zhou Sui gently pushed him away. There would still be people passing by on the road ahead, and it wouldn't be good if others saw. "Tomorrow is only the first day of the new year."
Generally, the first few days of the new year are for visiting close relatives to offer New Year's greetings, while visiting friends and relatives should be done a few days later.
"You can also visit relatives and friends on the first day of the Lunar New Year."
“Let’s go out and play together on the second day of the Lunar New Year.” He also knew that the relationship between the Zhou family and the Li family was tense, and he would not go back to his parents’ home on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
"Come to my house on the third day of the Lunar New Year."
I'll visit your house on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
"Then we'll go back to the city together on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."
This arrangement~~
Zhou Sui glanced at the man beside her, "Don't you have to visit relatives?" From the first day of the Lunar New Year, no, to be precise, from New Year's Eve onwards, Song Qi'an would try every means to be with her.
It's understandable that the Song family's relatives don't keep in touch, but Zhou Sui remembers that the Zhao family has quite a few relatives.
"Visiting relatives is nothing compared to spending time with my girlfriend." This answer left Zhou Sui momentarily speechless, her upturned lips revealing her good mood.
"I probably won't be able to come to your house on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Meimei and her family are coming over," Zhou Sui said apologetically. Meimei and her family usually come to visit on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
Song Qi'an was silent for two seconds, then said, "I also know Zhou Meimei."
"Huh?" Zhou Sui looked at him, puzzled, not understanding what he was trying to say.
Song Qi'an cleared his throat. "It won't be awkward if we all know each other and eat together."
What? Has he forgotten the time he asked Xiaomei who she was?
Zhou Sui understood his thoughts, "I've noticed, you're quite clingy."
"And then?" Song Qi'an looked down at her. The two stood face to face, their hearts only two fists apart. The light from the fireworks shone on Zhou Sui's face, flickering on and off.
Zhou Sui suddenly stood on tiptoe, "I like it."
Song Qi'an felt a soft, warm touch flash across his lips, and a strange look crossed his eyes.
Just as Zhou Sui was about to pull her head back, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her waist, holding the back of her head and pulling her towards him.
A crisp, refreshing scent wafted over her, and something pressed down on her. Their lips met, and in an instant, Zhou Sui felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She couldn't breathe, and her mind went blank.
It wasn't until Song Qi'an's invasion subsided that Zhou Sui realized her legs had gone weak, and she was now panting heavily with her head resting on Song Qi'an's shoulder.
To accommodate her, Song Wanyi slightly bent her back, her voice filled with obvious laughter, "Remember to breathe next time you kiss, holding your breath for too long is uncomfortable."
Zhou Sui's face turned bright red. If she had suddenly had a change of heart and thought that Song Qi'an looked incredibly handsome under the fireworks, especially his lips, she might have inexplicably gone up and taken a sip, wanting to flirt with him.
Now, before he could even savor the feeling of teasing her, he felt like a lamb thrown into a tiger's den. He felt that if Song Qi'an had let go a few seconds later, he would have fainted from suffocation.
"Hmm." Faced with Song Qi'an's teasing, Zhou Sui responded in a muffled voice. Embarrassing, so embarrassing!
Knowing that Zhou Sui was shy, Song Qi'an didn't say anything more. The two of them quietly embraced each other, creating a peaceful and serene scene.
In fact, Zhou Sui wanted to let go of Song Qi'an. She tried, but her legs were still very weak and she couldn't stand up straight. In her heart, she was shouting: Is this a kiss? This is clearly sucking all the oxygen out of my body.
It wasn't until Zhou Peng called that the two slowly separated. Song Qi'an asked considerately, "Can you stand up straight?"
Zhou Sui nodded vigorously, her face flushed. "I'll go to the intersection to wait for my brother. You go back first."
After saying that, she felt something was off, as if she had used the person and then turned her back on them.
"I'll take you there and watch you get on the bus before I go back." He had overheard the phone call earlier. Zhou Peng was almost in the village, and he would be arriving at the intersection from here.
Zhou Sui did not refuse. The distance to the intersection was not long. Looking at the man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes next to her, Zhou Sui suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
"Isn't it really unfair to you that we're doing this secretly?"
If Song Qi'an were with someone else today, he might have brought them back openly and honestly long ago, without having to go to great lengths or be secretive.
Unfortunately, I ended up with someone who felt the relationship wasn't stable enough and didn't want to make it public.
"How could that be?" Noticing the change in Zhou Sui's emotions, Song Qi'an's voice softened a little. "This is a matter of mutual consent, there is no unfairness. When you truly accept me, we can be open and aboveboard."
To be honest, although they had known each other for a long time, they had only just begun to spend time together, and he completely understood Zhou Sui's thoughts.
Song Qi'an felt that as long as he was good enough, this day would eventually come. There are many ways to fall in love, and not every way needs to be known by everyone, although he really wanted to tell everyone he knew that Zhou Sui was his girlfriend.
Zhou Sui felt both guilty and happy after hearing this. She took Song Qi'an's arm and leaned against him affectionately, saying, "Thank you."
She is a rather cautious person when it comes to relationships, especially since the Zhou and Zhao families have become much closer because of her and Song Qi'an. It would be great if this relationship could take another step forward, but it would be a bit of a pity if it stalled because of them.
So Zhou Sui wanted to wait a little longer. If the final result was bad, it would be easy to resolve. If the result was good, then everyone would be happy.
