Chapter 212 Confession of Su Yicheng (2)
Luo Xiaoxi thought that her acceptance ability was much better than that of ordinary people, and there were few things that could make her unresponsive.
But this time, as if she lost the ability to speak, she just blankly stared at Su Yicheng. It really took a long time for her to come to her senses.
“When were you going to tell me?” Without knowing how long it took, Luo Xiaoxi finally got her voice back.
She could see that today, Su Yicheng was stimulated by her to take her home. Otherwise, he would leave after watching the compet.i.tion, like he always did, leaving herself to let her thoughts run wild.
“I’m going to wait until the compet.i.tion is over,” Su Yicheng said, “when the hype of the program dies down, I’ll tell you everything. At that time, no matter what is exposed, it won’t affect you.”
But he did not expect that Luo Xiaoxi was more provoking then he imagined. No matter Qin Wei or Fang Zheng, as long as she left his sight, she would immediately be able to relate to other men, and she was so eloquent, which made him feel so angry.
Today, Su Jianan’s words reminded him that sooner or later, it had to be said.
Since it would be exposed in the end, why should he endure Luo Xiaoxi’s flirting with others, and why should he endure other men’s coveting of Luo Xiaoxi?
Why didn’t he tell Luo Xiaoxi clearly now: She was his, stay away from other men!
“I think about so much for you, just because becoming a model is your dream. I want to try my best to help you protect it,” Su Yicheng looked at Luo Xiaoxi and said word by word, “but now, I change my mind.”
He was not afraid of any criticism of Luo Xiaoxi. Anyway, he did not need Luo Xiaoxi to succeed in her career.
“… I don’t know you intend to do that.” Luo Xiaoxi shook her head. Thinking of her unreasonable behaviors and deliberately stimulating Su Yicheng during these days, she finally bowed her head and said, “I’m sorry.”
“It’s not your fault.” Su Yicheng touched Luo Xiaoxi’s face with his slender hand. “I’m the one to blame. I thought you’re smart enough.”
“…” Luo Xiaoxi was very touched, but all the emotions abruptly stopped when she heard the words. She pushed Su Yicheng forcefully to vent her anger. “That’s how stupid I am. Are you gonna bite me?”
Su Yicheng really bit Luo Xiaoxi on her lips.
“Hss—! It hurts!”
Luo Xiaoxi just wanted to bite him back, but Su Yicheng already kissed on her lips. The violent kiss drowned her. She gradually lost her strength, and her whole body softened, leaning in Su Yicheng’s arms.
The tension disappeared and was replaced by subtlety.
“Xiaoxi.” Su Yicheng’s kiss fell on Luo Xiaoxi’s eyes and brows. “I’m sorry.”
Luo Xiaoxi was puzzled, “Sorry for what?”
“For many things,” Su Yicheng said.
“For example?”
“For the thing that I hid from you during this period, for the thing that I’ve done to you,” Su Yicheng kissed Luo Xiaoxi on her forehead, his gentleness was full of apology.
It was the first time that Luo Xiaoxi had seen Su Yicheng like this, so she continued to ask, “And what else?”
“And,” Su Yicheng’s voice lowered a little, with a bit hoa.r.s.eness, “for what I’m going to do next.”
…
The sunshine of early morning went into the bedroom through the curtain seams, and the two people on the bed were still in sound sleep.
Luo Xiaoxi lay in Su Yicheng’s arms, one of her hand possessively across his waist as if she wanted to tell others that this man was hers.
Around 10 a.m., Luo Xiaoxi awakened in hunger. She opened her sleepy eyes and saw Su Yicheng at first sight.
Suddenly, she no longer felt hungry and leaned on the bed with her hands on her chin, looking at him.
He was still as charming as he was in the daytime. Although his hair was a little messy, he was more real with his eyes tightly closed. He was not as perfect as he was in the daytime, polite but unapproachable.
Luo Xiaoxi stretched out her hand and drew a circle on Su Yicheng’s face with her slender fingers. Seeing him frown, she smugly compressed her lips and breathed in his ear. “Su Yicheng~”
Su Yicheng’s ears were very sensitive, which couldn’t stand this tepid breath. He frowned and opened his eyes, seeing Luo Xiaoxi’s mischievous smile at first sight.
It was at last night when Luo Xiaoxi found this weakness of him.
“If you dare to cross me again, I’ll use it against you!”
With her complacent coda just fell, Luo Xiaoxi’s waist was suddenly held by Su Yicheng. The next second, she was pinned down, unable to move.
“Don’t disturb me,” Before Luo Xiaoxi protested, Su Yicheng warned dangerously first.
But Luo Xiaoxi did not think so and struggled for a while. Seeing Su Yicheng’s eyes turn dark, she vaguely felt something, “coughed” and smiled embarra.s.sedly. “Haha…”
Su Yicheng stared at her dangerously. “I didn’t let you have enough of it yesterday, did I?”
Luo Xiaoxi was frightened and promptly shook her head.
Su Yicheng smiled, obviously very satisfied with Luo Xiaoxi’s response.
Luo Xiaoxi reluctantly bit her lip, kicked Su Yicheng and said, “Order breakfast. I’m hungry.”
She wanted to wash but did not expect that her legs softened as soon as she touched the ground. “Bang”, she fell on her face, suddenly stunned…
Su Yicheng hurriedly stood up to see Luo Xiaoxi. She was not hurt. She just lay on the ground like a frog, unbelievable at what happened. He could not help laughing.
At this time, Luo Xiaoxi reacted. She resentfully looked at Su Yicheng. “Smiling for what! It’s all your fault!”
d.a.m.n it, it turned out that what was written in books were all true. The bones in her body were like being torn to pieces. Although she was not feeling sore all over her body, she indeed had no strength in her at all.
“Well, blame me.” Su Yicheng took Luo Xiaoxi up from the ground. Feeling ashamed, Luo Xiaoxi struggled to come down. So, he asked suspiciously, “Are you sure you can stand firm?”
“…” Luo Xiaoxi settled down and cradled her head in Su Yicheng’s chest, let Su Yicheng carry her into the bathroom.
“Take a bath?” Su Yicheng asked.
Luo Xiaoxi thought about it and nodded. “Go out, I’ll take it by myself.”
Su Yicheng calmly looked at Luo Xiaoxi. “I want to take a bath, too.”
After that, he put Luo Xiaoxi on the washstand to let her sit, and then he went to turn on the water.
Soon, the water level in the bathtub rose, but one person could never use that much water!
Luo Xiaoxi finally realized that Su Yicheng was not joking. She jumped off the washstand but forgot that the floor of the bathroom was so slippery. Once she landed, she staggered. “Ah! Su Yicheng!”
Su Yicheng turned back, nimbly caught Luo Xiaoxi and smiled. “Since you can’t wait to—”
He picked up Luo Xiaoxi and stepped into the bathtub.
Luo Xiaoxi covered her face. “Pervert!”
An hour later, with a woeful face, Luo Xiaoxi was taken out of the bathroom and carried into the secondary bedroom. She was startled and looked at Su Yicheng with dissatisfaction. “What do you mean?”
Did he want to kick her out so soon?
Su Yicheng bowed his head and kissed her while calming her. “Wait here. I’ll change the sheets.”
Luo Xiaoxi’s facial expression was stiff for a while, and she was completely stunned. Then she silently rolled into the inside corner of the bed.
Su Yicheng smiled more pleasantly and returned to the master bedroom in a good mood.
He did not have a very serious mysophobia, but still had certain requirements for the cleanliness and tidiness of his home. His bedroom at the moment was far away from his minimum requirement.
But he actually thought the mess was beautiful.
Su Yicheng began to pack up all the clothes and put them into the laundry basket in the bathroom. And then he took out a new set of bedding and lifted the quilt—
A red flower bloomed on the dark sheet.
He compressed his lips and laid down the new sheet. Then, he went to the secondary bedroom and asked Luo Xiaoxi, “What do you want for breakfast?”
“You haven’t ordered breakfast yet?” Luo Xiaoxi’s eyes were grieving—she was so hungry!
“I’ll make it for you,” Su Yicheng said.
Luo Xiaoxi suspiciously scanned Su Yicheng and said, “Do you still have the energy to make breakfast? Aren’t you… tired?”
Su Yicheng menacingly looked at Luo Xiaoxi, jumped on her, and violently kissed on her red lips again. “Do you want to see how much energy I still have?”
Luo Xiaoxi silently gasped. “No! You have, you have proved that… By the way, I want to have porridge!”
“Wait for me.” Su Yicheng stood up and went to the kitchen.
Originally, he wanted to tease Luo Xiaoxi again. But in order to avoid getting himself into it, he planned to let her go temporarily.
Life was a long time.
Luo Xiaoxi lay in bed, looking at the white ceiling. A few minutes later, she suddenly rolled on the bed and laughed out loud.
She and Su Yicheng, so it meant that they were already together, right?
She pursued him for so many years and did not give up even though being ridiculed for so many years. Surely she was right?
So, people must insist. What if they were lucky enough?
Half an hour later, a burst of fragrance floated from the kitchen. Luo Xiaoxi could not tell what exactly it was, only felt it was fresh and pleasant. So, she curiously got up to the kitchen to see it, only to see that Su Yicheng was boiling sampan porridge in a ca.s.serole.
It was her favorite porridge!
Su Jianan also could cook it, and the porridge she made was quite well. But because of too many ingredients and time-consuming preparations, when they were studying in the United States, Su Jianan only had time to boil sampan porridge for her on holidays or weekends.
Su Yicheng was obviously good at it, too. There were thin bright yellow egg slices, jellyfish, fish fillets, and shrimps floating in the crystal, soft porridge. Just before turning off the fire, he sprinkled deep-fried dough stick crumb, peanut kernels, and so on. Then, he put it in the bowl and sprinkled green onions at last. The air was filled with the sweet smell of porridge.
Luo Xiaoxi felt hungrier, she helped to bring the porridge to the dining room. If it weren’t too hot, she could have a big bowl of it immediately.
“What to drink?” Su Yicheng’s voice came from the kitchen.
“Corn juice!”
Su Yicheng opened the refrigerator, there was just two fresh corn left. He squeezed two cups of corn juice, and the porridge was almost cold.
Luo Xiaoxi was eager. “I’m going to eat!”
She tasted it with great expectations. Its taste was just as good as what Su Jianan cooked, and even could be comparable with the most authentic Xiguan porridge store in City A.
She could not be more satisfied!
“Su Yicheng,” said Luo Xiaoxi excitedly, “If you cook so well, marry me! I’ll treat you well!”
Su Yicheng’s lips irrepressibly twitched several times.
When he calmed down, he smiled and said, “Okay, let’s go and get the marriage certificate this afternoon?”
“Ahem!” Luo Xiaoxi didn’t expect Su Yicheng to follow her words, so she laughed embarra.s.sedly. “Well, I’m just kidding…”
Come on. She was a girl! How could he let a girl propose?
But was Su Yicheng really willing to marry her?
Thinking of this, Luo Xiaoxi shook her head fiercely.
Even if Su Yicheng was willing, she would not! She did not go through a vigorous love; how could she be married? She still wanted to have romantic dates. Otherwise, how could it be called falling in love?
Su Yicheng did not go on with this topic anymore. He knew Luo Xiaoxi. As for some things, it was too early to put them on the agenda.
After eating the porridge, Luo Xiaoxi leaned on the table and looked at Su Yicheng with a smile. “You just said… you are not tired?”
Su Yicheng smiled. “And I also said, you can try it yourself.”
Luo Xiaoxi smiled more brilliantly and quickly got up. “If you’re not tired, wash the dishes. I’m going to sleep!”
She walked into the living room, turned on the TV, and then curled up on the soft sofa, resting comfortably on the pillow, feeling that life could not be more comfortable.
Su Yicheng washed the dishes and came out, only to see her lying on the sofa watching the replay of Top Model on TV with her head tilted while dangling her legs leisurely, without realizing that there was a man at home.
He walked over. “Pah—”, he patted on Luo Xiaoxi’s bottom. “Sleep after eating. Were you a pig in your last life?”
“You were a pig in your last life!” Luo Xiaoxi kicked Su Yicheng with her legs. “Where are my clothes?”
Now she still wore Su Yicheng’s shirt. Although his shirt was not short, she was not short, too. The shirt-tails would be rolled if she was not careful. Now Su Yicheng was still with her, if that really happened, it was going to be a lot more than awkward.
So, she had to get her clothes back.
Su Yicheng calmly raised his eyebrows and said, “Do you think you can still wear it?”
“…” After realizing it, Luo Xiaoxi’s face blushed. She reluctantly asked, “What then?”
Su Yicheng glanced at Luo Xiaoxi faintly. “You are not without clothes now.”
Luo Xiaoxi almost jumped up. “But I can’t go out in your clothes!”
Su Yicheng smiled casually, pulled Luo Xiaoxi out of the sofa, blocked her lips and kissed her deeply. “Then never go out.”
Luo Xiaoxi shivered. “Su Yicheng, this kind of line is generally from psychopathic murderers.”
Su Yicheng scratched Luo Xiaoxi’s waist. “Then you can see if I’m a psychopathic murderer.”
“Ah! It tickles. Let me go.” Luo Xiaoxi dodged him. But finally, she did not know what was going on and was suppressed by Su Yicheng again.
“No!” She looked resolutely at Su Yicheng. Saying no meant no.
“What are you thinking about?” Su Jianan didn’t know if Su Yicheng was smiling or not. “Does it hurt now?”
This time, Luo Xiaoxi’s face was really red. She turned her head, tried to pay her attention to the TV replay, and shook her head. The next second, she said angrily, “But it hurt a lot yesterday!”
Su Yicheng lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “It won’t hurt anymore, I promise.”
Luo Xiaoxi looked at Su Yicheng with suspicion. “How could you guarantee that?”
“With my skills!” Su Yicheng made no secret of his strong self-confidence.
Luo Xiaoxi. “…”
In other words, didn’t Su Yicheng learn all his skills from his ex-girlfriends?
Well, so was she taken advantage or not?
Without thinking of any answers, the only thing Luo Xiaoxi could think about was: Eat more and lose less.
Su Yicheng did not notice Luo Xiaoxi’s movements at all. She almost bounced up from the sofa and pressed her lips on his. She was nibbling him rather than kissing him, without any rules or skills.
Strangely enough, he actually enjoyed it.
After a while of nibbling him, Luo Xiaoxi loosened Su Yicheng, who frowned and expressed his contempt. “Can you kiss?”
“Dislike it?” Luo Xiaoxi showed an expression that said “I’m not afraid of you disliking it”. “It’s too late!”
“Compared with disliking it, it’s better to teach you…”
Before Luo Xiaoxi could respond, her lips had become Su Yicheng’s territory. But he did not kiss her as fiercely as before. He demonstrated actions one by one and then told her what it was called and what the skills were, with due diligence.
Twenty minutes later, Luo Xiaoxi realized what happened. Was Su Yicheng taking advantage of her in the name of teaching?
After seeing Su Yicheng’s satisfied smile, Luo Xiaoxi had a positive answer to her question. When Su Yicheng kissed her, she bit his lip mischievously.
For 30 years of living, Su Yicheng was only bitten by one woman, Luo Xiaoxi, more than once.
He dangerously pulled Luo Xiaoxi over. “Let the teacher check how you are learning.” After that, he kissed Luo Xiaoxi’s lips again.
Luo Xiaoxi was already tired. And now she was unable to withstand, so she could only let Su Yicheng do whatever he wanted.
Finally, Su Yicheng’s voice sounded vaguely in her ear.
“Xiaoxi, I love you.”
Luo Xiaoxi was like being struck by lightning, lying stiff on the sofa and looking at Su Yicheng.
She tried to find a hint of joking in Su Yicheng’s eyes, even a little. But no, there was only a consistent seriousness in his eyes.
Luo Xiaoxi suddenly wanted to cry.
“I love you.” Everyone could say the simple three words out loud. In the past few years, she said as a mantra to Su Yicheng, but each time, he did not respond her.
Later, these three words became the words to tease Su Yicheng. From time to time, she would say “Su Yicheng, I love you” to sound him out.
Sometimes, Su Yicheng just looked at her. Sometimes, he frowned helplessly. “Luo Xiaoxi, that’s enough!”
At that time, she thought that Su Yicheng should have been immune to these three words, right? And he really didn’t love her, did he?
She might never have the chance to hear Su Yicheng say this to her.
But now, he did.
Su Yicheng saw that Luo Xiaoxi did not respond and stroked her face. “Do you blame me for saying this to you now?”
He sighed. “You used to say that to me every time you saw me and affected me in a very bad way. No matter who said it to me, I would think of you. For a long time, I felt it was too common.”
Only recently did he realize that this sentence was serious. It was serious, at least in Luo Xiaoxi’s heart.
Luo Xiaoxi wanted their relationship to go public. Even if he already said that they had the possibility, and hat he wanted her to be his girlfriend, she was indifferent. She just wanted him to say this sentence.
Only then did he realize that it was no joke when Luo Xiaoxi said this to him in the past. Every time, she was sincere. And every time he ignored her; he was hurting her.
He could not turn back time, but the future was still to come.
So now he told Luo Xiaoxi. “I love you.”
