Luo Xikui placed a deposit on this ring at the beginning of the month, but she has been busy with practice and performances and has not come to pick it up. She suddenly remembered it today.
She ordered this ring intending to propose to him after returning to China, but he beat her to it by coming here first.
However, the result is the same no matter what. Just as he told her, they are working hard on different paths, but as long as they are determined, they will eventually come together.
"You..." Xu Ziyu didn't know what to say to her. He was extremely glad that he had come prepared this time. If she had proposed first, he would have lost face and it would have been like he had married into her family.
"Mr. Xu Ziyu, are you willing?" she asked him loudly again.
“Of course I would, I couldn’t ask for more.” Xu Ziyu handed her his hand.
In the bustling city, this place was unusually quiet. As if in a church, she solemnly slipped the antique ring onto his ring finger.
Xu Ziyu embraced her waist and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
The two kissed passionately and slipped into a narrow alley.
She pushed him against the wall, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him with all her might.
Her fingers even slipped inside his collar, and she opened her lips to kiss his neck.
"Luo Xikui..." he gasped, regretting that he had let her go last night. She was fearless and dared to act like this even in public.
"I'll take responsibility." Luo Xikui relented, looking at the strawberry she had planted there with satisfaction. She hoped that when she returned to China, the strawberry plant would still be there, and she would then plant new ones.
"I hope you can take responsibility when the time comes and not beg for forgiveness." Xu Ziyu took a while to calm his breathing and then quietly held her.
The sweetness of being together is accompanied by the sorrow of parting.
She eventually saw him off at the airport; she had two more performances in Europe and couldn't go back with him.
"I'm through customs." Xu Ziyu tugged at her coat, straightened it for her, and then said, "You're not allowed to eat those things that have no nutritional value anymore."
"I only did it once, and you caught me." Luo Xikui retorted softly. After all, she was a foodie, and she would never normally mistreat her taste buds. Yesterday was a special case, though.
“You need to raise it to a certain feel.” Xu Ziyu returned these words to her, and said with a smile, “I will check it when I return to China.”
"If you don't try it now, how will you know if your touch will be better after you go back to China?"
"..." Xu Ziyu realized that he was at a disadvantage in this regard. Fortunately, everyone here was a foreigner, and only he could understand what she was saying.
"Ayu." Luo Xikui suppressed her smile, then snuggled into his arms again, taking a deep breath of his scent: "I'll come back to find you soon."
"Mm." Xu Ziyu nodded and kissed her temple: "Happy birthday."
After a long embrace, the two reluctantly let go only after the airport announcement came over the loudspeaker.
Xu Ziyu carried his luggage bag and went through customs.
Luo Xikui kept watching until he could no longer see the shadow of the man.
She silently told herself, "Don't worry, this separation won't last long."
Xu Ziyu boarded the plane and sent Luo Xikui a message a moment before takeoff: I'm waiting for you.
He was about to turn off his phone when the in-flight announcement said the plane was taking off. Just before turning it off, he saw her reply: "Okay."
He turned off his phone with peace of mind, turned his head to look out the window, the plane slowly took off, the scenery outside the window gradually became smaller, and after flying into the clouds, he couldn't help but smile, his smile full of sweetness.
