Chapter 300 - You Can’t Get Rid Of Me Easily (2)
"Dummy!" Su Xiaofei lowered her head and smiled foolishly to herself.
When it came to Lu Qingfeng, she wanted to be selfish. Not wanting to share him with anyone. Wanting him only to herself.
"Feifei?" Lu Qingfeng looked at her with confusion. At this moment, he wasn't sure what she was even thinking.
"Lu Qingfeng, you better think twice, no — think of it several times before choosing a woman like me. You better reconsider your decision carefully, because I'm a selfish and jealous woman. I have a fiery temper that cannot easily be extinguished by a mere apology. If you want to be with me for eternity, you better make sure that I would be the only woman at your side and no one else. If you dare to betray me, I will run to Grandpa Lu for help. You can't get rid of me easily!"
This time, she lifted her head and said these bold declarations with an arrogant smile on her face while Lu Qingfeng stared at her with wide eyes, as if he was afraid that he was just hallucinating.
"Lu Qingfeng, I'm not joking! Since it's like this, would you accept this answer?" Su Xiaofei exclaimed, when his reply was only silence. She narrowed her eyes and slightly pouted at him in annoyance.
He should have known that she wouldn't turn him down. He had managed to ingrain himself in her, so deep that it was impossible for Su Xiaofei to live her life without him. If anyone should be blamed for it, it was Lu Qingfeng.
Finally, Lu Qingfeng snapped out of his daze and recovered from his shock. He looked at Su Xiaofei for a moment, before a smile spread on his lips, enthralling Su Xiaofei.
She wanted to turn her head away and cover her face, but she didn't. A smile like that should be illegal, she thought. Lu Qingfeng should only smile like that at her and only for her from now on! She decided. Only she would have the right to see this blinding smile of Lu Qingfeng's, and she would have him all to herself.
"I see. I guess I should be careful not to make Feifei angry with me in the future, so Grandpa wouldn't scold me and denounce me as his heir and choose Feifei instead." Lu Qingfeng finally said as he took her hands in his, placing gentle kisses on her knuckles.
"There would be no other Madam Lu in the future except for you." He promised.
"No other woman behind my back?" Su Xiaofei raised a brow at him in question.
"Feifei is already a handful for me. Why would I take another woman who would only make my life harder than it already is?" He answered her with a question.
Lu Qingfeng couldn't understand why other men would choose to take another woman aside from their wives. Was the thrill of being caught or having a rendezvous meeting with another woman worth getting one's life into an utter mess? Perhaps he would never understand because he was a one-woman man, and he didn't find another woman as enticing and interesting as Su Xiaofei.
Finally, after making it clear about their feelings for each other, Su Xiaofei allowed Lu Qingfeng to draw her into a tight embrace, her heart still racing as usual.
"I haven't been this happy in a long time." She murmured against his chest. "Thank you for having me."
Lu Qingfeng hummed and kissed her crown, his eyes showing gratitude and happiness as he could finally love her without any reservations.
"I should be the one who should be thankful, Feifei. Thank you for choosing me." He said in return.
Su Xiaofei allowed a single tear to roll down her cheek. Did she have to experience all hardships in her previous life so she could receive the best things in life in this lifetime? She wanted to ask him why he was so good to her, but she didn't dare to question him, for she wasn't sure if she was ready to hear his answer.
It was enough that she had him back by her side, and she was his from now on.
This time, she allowed herself to cry in his arms. If Lu Qingfeng was bothered by it, she didn't know because he only held her tighter and patted her back lovingly.
After a moment of holding each other, Lu Qingfeng released her and dried the tears on her cheeks and said in a low voice.
"It's already getting late. Why don't you go ahead and retire for the night? I'll make sure to pay you and Aunty Qing a visit later to celebrate your birthday."
Su Xiaofei shook her head and rested her head back on his chest.
"No. Let me hug you for a little longer. You don't know how worried I was since the news of your accident."
Lu Qingfeng remained silent and allowed Su Xiaofei to hug him if it was something that could make her happy. He knew that there were things she wanted to say, but wouldn't, but it was okay with him.
He knew that Su Xiaofei appeared to be strong and unbothered by others' criticism, but in reality, her sense of security wasn't strong, and she needed her mother and him to rely on.
"There's no need to worry, Feifei. In this world, I'm the one foolish man who loves you the most. You can use me as you like, but I hope that you won't forget about me in the future."
"That's impossible!" Su Xiaofei snapped her head up and looked at him. "I will never forget you! How could I forget someone like you?"
Lu Qingfeng only smiled, but didn't dare to believe it. She had once promised him the same thing in his first life.. Who could say that she wouldn't forget about him for the second time? So long as she was with him, it was all that mattered.
