Song Shishi felt her whole body falling backwards, and then someone held her and spun her around in a circle.
At this moment, she seemed to return to the scene before her death in her previous life.
Someone also called her name at that time.
Now the two voices overlapped and echoed in Song Shishi's ears at the same time.
That familiar voice turned out to be Meng Xunzhou!
A child rushed over from where Song Shishi had just stood.
Probably because he almost hit someone, the child even looked back.
"Are you okay?" Meng Xunzhou let go of Song Shishi and looked down to check.
Song Shishi shook her head, still a little dazed, her eyes fixed on Meng Xunzhou who had a worried look on his face.
...
...
No wonder she always felt that the voice was familiar, but she didn't have time to think about it at the time, and after her rebirth, she couldn't remember the voice.
After confirming that Song Shishi was not injured and seeing her dazed look, Meng Xunzhou smiled helplessly.
"we……"
Just as Song Shishi opened her mouth, she saw Meng Xunzhou's hand suddenly stretched out.
Almost subconsciously, Song Shishi dodged back a bit, "What's wrong?"
Meng Xunzhou probably realized that his actions were a little too intimate, and he withdrew his hand awkwardly and rubbed his nose.
He pointed to the corner of his mouth, then took out a square handkerchief from his pocket and handed it over, "Here, dip it in some sugar."
Song Shishi took the handkerchief and wiped off the sugar crumbs.
"Thanks!"
She looked up at Meng Xunzhou and said, "Let's go."
"Shishi, I have something to tell you." Meng Xunzhou called her.
Colorful lanterns were hung on both sides of the street. The two of them standing in the bustling crowd seemed particularly abrupt, as if time had stood still.
The soft light illuminated Song Shishi's face.
Song Shishi became inexplicably nervous, so nervous that her palms began to sweat as she held the lantern.
Meng Xunzhou's Adam's apple rolled slightly, he swallowed, and his hands clenched and unclenched unconsciously.
He took a deep breath and mustered up his courage and said, "You know what? Every time I'm with you, even if I'm just walking quietly, my heart is filled with joy.
From childhood to adulthood, I never cared about other people's opinions. I always liked to follow you because I liked it. "
When Song Shishi heard the word "like", her body began to stiffen.
She raised her head slightly, with a hint of panic in her eyes.
She never thought that Meng Xunzhou would suddenly express his feelings to her so directly, and she was a little at a loss.
Meng Xunzhou's heartbeat became more and more rapid. Now that he had said it, he didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he continued, "I like you, Song Shishi."
"I originally wanted to wait a little longer, until you noticed my love for me, until you liked me back.
But you are so outstanding, I am afraid that if I wait any longer, you will be snatched away by someone else at any time, and I don’t want us to miss each other.”
Song Shishi lowered her head slightly, her cheeks became hotter and hotter, and the blush spread all the way to her ears.
She pursed her lips, unsure of how to respond.
And Meng Xunzhou's voice continued in my ears.
"Shishi, are you willing to be with me?"
At this moment, Song Shishi had a momentary tinnitus.
The noisy sounds around disappeared, leaving only the sharp tinnitus echoing in my ears.
Her lips trembled slightly, and she wanted to speak several times, but didn't know what to say.
Time seemed to freeze, and every minute and every second became extremely long.
Meng Xunzhou's scorching gaze was fixed on her, making Song Shishi afraid to look directly at him.
After a long while, Song Shishi stammered, "Xunzhou, this... this is too sudden, I..."
Meng Xunzhou's heart sank suddenly. Fearing that Song Shishi would reject him, he interrupted her and said, "Shishi, my heart is very small. It is so small that it can only accommodate you in this life."
When Song Shishi heard Meng Xunzhou say this, the shock in her heart could not be described in words.
She had to admit that apart from her mother Zheng Peilan, Meng Xunzhou was the best person to her.
It has been like this since childhood.
After she came back, Zheng Peilan kept asking her about her relationship in a roundabout way.
She knew that even if she got rid of An Jinsheng, there would be someone else in the future.
Rather than being with someone else, she would rather be with Meng Xunzhou.
Although her feelings for Meng Xunzhou had not yet reached the point where she could not live without him, she had to admit that she did have a good impression of him.
No one had ever said these words to her, either in the previous life or in this life.
She couldn't believe that such straightforward words came from Meng Xunzhou's mouth.
"good."
After a long while, just when Meng Xunzhou and Song Shishi were rejecting him, he suddenly heard a very small voice responding.
"What? What did you just say?"
Meng Xunzhou couldn't believe what he had just heard, fearing that he had misunderstood.
"Shishi, I didn't hear you clearly just now. Did you just promise me? Hmm?"
Being pestered with questions about this kind of thing, especially in such a crowded place, Song Shishi was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole in the ground.
Her eyes were constantly scanning the surroundings, fearing that people around her might hear her.
She avoided his gaze and didn't dare to look directly at Meng Xunzhou.
Song Shishi buried half of her face in her scarf and said in a muffled voice, "Forget it if you didn't hear it."
How could Meng Xunzhou let her go like this? He bent down and looked her in the eye. "I don't care. If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent. From now on, you are my partner, and you are not allowed to cheat."
Seeing Meng Xunzhou's smug look, the corners of Song Shishi's mouth hidden under the scarf also rose.
"Sister, why are you here? We have been looking for..."
Xu Li saw Song Shishi and Meng Xunzhou from afar, and ran over holding Li Haoyang's hand.
But halfway through her conversation, she keenly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere between the two of them.
Xu Li paused and turned to look at Xu Qiang who was following her.
"Boss, Comrade Song, Yao Wen and the others are at the noodle shop up ahead. They said they were a little hungry. Shall we go over together?"
Although Xu Qiang didn't know what happened between Meng Xunzhou and Song Shishi, he could guess from Meng Xunzhou's expression that his boss was in a particularly good mood.
Meng Xunzhou looked at Song Shishi and asked softly, "Are you hungry?"
Song Shishi took the hand that Li Haoyang extended to her and nodded, "Indeed, a little bit."
"Pretty aunt, are you too hot? Why is your face so red?"
Li Haoyang has been staring at Song Shishi since he came here.
It was not until Song Shishi started talking that Li Haoyang could not help but ask out of curiosity.
Only then did Xu Li notice that Song Shishi's cheeks were unusually red. Worried that she had caught a cold and had a fever, she walked up to her and touched Song Shishi's forehead.
Only when she felt the normal temperature did Xu Li feel relieved.
Meng Xunzhou noticed Song Shishi's embarrassment at the moment, and before Xu Li spoke, he explained for Song Shishi: "There were a lot of people just now, and we ran for a while. She probably got too hot from running."
Xu Li and Li Haoyang obviously accepted Meng Xunzhou's explanation and did not ask any further questions.
After they met up with Meng Xiaoqi and the others at the noodle shop, they each ordered a bowl of noodles. Seeing that it was getting late, Meng Xunzhou and Xu Qiang sent Song Shishi and the others back to the compound, while Meng Yinting and her husband went back on their own.
On the way back, Li Haoyang was held by Xu Li.
Xu Qiang and Meng Xunzhou looked at each other, then shouted to Meng Xiaoqi, "Sister Xiaoqi, do you dare to compete with me?"
"Compared to what?"
Meng Yinting was so tired after visiting the lantern festival at night that she had no energy left. But when she heard Xu Qiang's question, she subconsciously asked back.
Xu Qiang showed a smug smile on his face, "Let's see who can ride faster. The end point is the street ahead. Do you dare?"
"Why not? You're still with Sister Li and Xiaobao."
Meng Yinting was worried that this would be unfair to Xu Qiang.
Xu Qiang waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "This little weight has no effect on me. Just decide whether to compete or not."
Meng Xiaoqi was immediately aroused by the desire to win. "Let's compete. Who's afraid of who? Don't look back and say I bullied you after you lose."
"Won't."
The front ends of Xu Qiang and Meng Xiaoqi's cars were side by side. Both of them supported themselves with one foot on the ground, looking straight ahead, ready to rush out at any time.
Considering that Xu Li was still holding Li Haoyang, Xu Qiang tilted his head slightly and said, "Li Li, hold on to me, don't fall down with Xiao Bao."
"I understand, brother." Xu Li responded.
Li Haoyang held Xu Li's waist obediently and nestled in her arms, staring at her with wide eyes full of excitement.
When the word "start" was uttered, Xu Qiang and Meng Xiaoqi's bicycles rushed out directly.
Song Shishi sat on the back of Meng Xunzhou's bicycle and asked worriedly, "Is it really okay for them to do this?"
"Don't worry, Xu Qiang knows his limits."
Meng Xunzhou knew clearly that Xu Qiang was not trying to compete with Meng Xiaoqi.
