Volume 1 Chapter 99 You may not be lacking, but I will give you enough
At the Du family, they had just finished dinner and were sitting in the living room watching TV.
Du Ruo sat on the sofa, staring at her phone in a daze. Xu Jingmo hadn't replied to her messages. Where had he gone?
Xu Siyan walked in and invited, "Sister Du Ruo, Du Yao, do you want to play ball?"
Du Yao: "My sister can't play basketball."
Xu Siyan: "Badminton."
"Okay, let's beat her together." Du Yao excitedly stood up and went to find a racket.
Du Ruo was distracted and didn't notice what they said. When Du Yao came downstairs with the ball and dragged her out, she finally responded, "I didn't agree to play ball with you two."
Du Yao said coquettishly, "Go ahead, go ahead. What's so good about TV? You never watched TV dramas before."
Xu Siyan stood at the door and asked expectantly, "Play with us for a while, Sister Du Ruo."
Du Ruo's heart softened and she agreed. She stuffed her phone into her pants pocket and went out with them, threatening them, "If you insist on inviting me, be careful or I'll kill you two eight hundred times."
Du Yao was not convinced, "I don't believe it. How can you have time to play ball on weekdays?"
Du Ruo didn't respond, but she was in a bad mood and needed to vent urgently.
The three of them walked out of the Du family's gate and headed towards the playground in the villa area.
After walking a few steps, Du Ruo's cell phone in his back pocket vibrated.
She looked down and saw it was Xu Jingmo's call.
I hummed in my heart, it’s been several hours, I finally found her.
She hesitated with the phone in her hand, feeling angry. She didn't want to answer the call right away, but she was also afraid that he would hang up and she wouldn't be able to answer the call. She stopped and said, "You two go first. I'll take the call."
Du Yao said casually: "It's okay, we'll wait for you."
Xu Siyan was very tactful and pulled him away and said, "Okay, we'll go to the stadium and wait for you, Sister Du Ruo."
"Hey, hey, hey, do you know how to be gentle with women? You left my sister alone on the street." Du Yao muttered in confusion.
"Shut up." Xu Siyan was too lazy to explain to him.
After they left, Du Ruo picked up the phone at the last second of the ringing and walked slowly towards the stadium without saying a word.
A familiar deep voice sounded from the other side, which made people's heart itch for some reason.
"What are you doing?"
Du Ruo: "I'm on a date with a handsome guy."
Xu Jingmo chuckled, "Really? Are you as handsome as me?"
Du Ruo: "Equally matched, but the winner is younger."
Xu Jingmo: "Tsk, then as the principal wife, shouldn't I be sensible and not disturb you at this time?"
Du Ruo didn't respond. What you say when you're emotional is the most hurtful, and she didn't want to lose her temper.
Xu Jingmo: "Why don't you ask me what I'm doing? You don't care about me at all."
Du Ruo snorted coldly: "Why should I care? He doesn't reply to WeChat messages and doesn't answer phone calls."
Xu Jingmo continued to laugh and asked softly, "Are you angry?"
Du Ruo said stubbornly: "No."
Xu Jingmo was in a good mood for no reason, and slowly reminded: "Du Ruo, you waited for me for several hours on the day you returned home, but you were not so anxious."
Du Ruo choked. Yes, at that time, she just thought that Xu Jingmo would just wait and see. Now why is she so angry when he doesn’t reply?
Xu Jingmo then asked: "Do you miss me?"
Du Ruo didn't want to lie, but also didn't want him to get too proud of himself, so she simply didn't respond.
Xu Jingmo: "No talk? Then I won't disturb you from your date with the handsome guy. I saw a beautiful girl outside and I want to chat her up."
Du Ruo said angrily, "Okay, you're great." She hung up the phone angrily. Suddenly, someone grabbed her arm from behind. She subconsciously guarded against him and subdued him with her backhand. Xu Jingmo quickly begged for mercy, "Gently, gently, gently, it's me."
Du Ruo was stunned and quickly let go of his hand.
Xu Jingmo shook his arm that was nearly broken, and said helplessly: "I forgot that you are not an ordinary person, and you still want to be a domineering president."
Du Ruo was shocked at first why he suddenly appeared here, but she quickly figured out what he had done during the hours he lost contact in the afternoon, and she felt angry and happy at the same time.
She was angry that he had hidden his loss of contact and made her upset, but she also felt that he had really given her a big surprise by doing so.
She said proudly, "Aren't you going to chat up some pretty girls? Why are you looking for me here?"
Xu Jingmo reached out and touched her chin, with a wicked smile on his face, "Isn't this a peerless beauty? I have a rather picky eye. I've liked this type since I was 5 years old. It's one of a kind in the world."
"Nervous, you said you are precocious?" Du Ruo was amused by his rude tone and couldn't help but hit him, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
Xu Jingmo hugged her tightly, buried his head in her neck, and asked softly, "Do you miss me?"
Du Ruo asked proudly: "Do you miss me?"
Xu Jingmo laughed and said, "I think my presence here is the best proof."
Du Ruo raised her lips slightly, tilted her head to kiss his cheek, and admitted softly, "I missed you."
Xu Jingmo let go of her slightly and locked eyes with hers. The emotions in their eyes were intertwined and self-evident.
On the quiet path, the branches of the sycamore trees rustled in the breeze. Under the street lights, the shadows of the boy and girl were stretched very long, yet inseparable.
His breathing became steady. Xu Jingmo gently pinched the back of Du Ruo's neck and said in a hoarse voice, "What did I tell you this morning? As long as you say you miss me, I will cast a spell."
Du Ruo was still in a daze, her beautiful eyes seemed to be shrouded in mist, and she murmured, "What magic?"
Xu Jingmo took her hand and put it in his coat pocket.
Du Ruo fumbled around but couldn't figure out what it felt like. When he took it out, he saw that it was a beige electronic watch.
She looked at Xu Jingmo in confusion.
Xu Jingmo put it on her wrist, then raised his left wrist and lightly touched the watch screen. It was a black electronic watch of the same model.
A message quickly appeared on Du Ruo's watch screen: "Your partner's heart rate is 120 beats per minute at this moment, and he is in an abnormally excited state."
Du Ruo looked confused, "What do you mean?"
Xu Jingmo opened her mobile phone screen again and guided her on how to check the location.
She said softly, "I originally wanted to give it to you when you go back to school, but after thinking about it, I think it's appropriate to give it to you today."
"This is a digital watch that I had modified. No matter how far apart we are, as long as we wear the watch, we can share our real-time heartbeats with each other."
“You can check your real-time location and save your walking routes for the past month.”
"I didn't enable the permissions on your watch, but my permissions are enabled for you 24 hours a day."
"It is said that long-distance relationships are the most challenging test of a person's sense of security. Du Ruo, you may not lack it, but I will give you enough of it as a partner."
Du Ruo didn't respond, but just raised her wrist and moved it in front of him.
Xu Jingmo raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Du Ruo raised the corners of her lips slightly, looked at him and smiled: "Xu Jingmo, who are you looking down on? Open my authority. I can't lose to some insecure kid."
Xu Jingmo defended himself stubbornly, "I didn't say I was insecure. Your social circle is so limited, is it possible that you would change your mind to an old man?"
Du Ruo saw through it but didn't expose it. He studied it himself, opened the permissions, and shared his real-time heartbeat.
The screen of Xu Jingmo's watch lit up and he pressed receive.
Du Ruo hugged him and said, "You can always ask me to prove that I love you."
Xu Jingmo looked at the gradually rising and falling heartbeat frequency on the screen, and the corners of his lips curved into a beautiful arc.
He held her and murmured, "That's enough. Du Ruo, I'm not afraid of time or distance. I'm only afraid that after we separate, you will no longer love me."
Du Ruo looked up at him, stood on tiptoes and wanted to kiss him. Xu Jingmo gently hooked her waist, lowered his head first, and kissed her lips. Suddenly he realized something, looked up, and turned around while holding her. The two of them switched positions in an instant.
Du Ruo didn't understand and looked behind him blankly.
Du Yao and Xu Siyan blindfolded each other, leaving large gaps between their fingers. They held the tennis rackets and peeked at each other with shy looks on their faces.
