Chapter 297 - A shutter of Camera
Xiong Zhi continued to set the rules.
"Okay, we have three questions before the other player's turn. Q or A, which player would you choose?"
Linfeng gave way to his Young Miss. "You can do the honor of being player Q."
"Okay. Let's make the first punishment easy. Punishment... is to give me a flower. "
"Alright," Linfeng chuckled. What kind of sweet punishment was that? Nevertheless, even he answered the three questions, he made up his mind to give her a bouquet of flowers later on.
"First question... Linfeng, do you like me?" Xiong Zhi asked seriously. So serious that Linfeng was stunned.
"..."
That was so sudden.
But he had made himself clear before that he liked her right?
...Or maybe it was not clear enough?
He stared at those eyes waiting with anticipation. She looked at him with eyes that glittered with a hopeful light, her soft cheeks caressed by a few stray strands along with the gentle breeze.
She looked like a fluffy white rabbit wanting to be petted.
This look of Xiong Zhi made him want to tease her more.
Linfeng pretended to think deeply.
"Hmm. It's only the first question and it is already hard."
"..." Xiong Zhi's eyes widened. What was so hard about that? He just confessed to her three months ago!
Did he forget already? Then... then why did he act intimately with her all along?
The straight ball Xiong Zhi felt anxious. Seeing the uneasy look on her face, Linfeng immediately gave up on teasing her.
Ah~ His heart was always weak when it came to his Young Miss.
He smiled as he lowered his head slightly and looked directly into her eyes. With his action, a few strands of his hair was ruffled by the wind, just like Xiong Zhi's. Locks of hair messily danced with the wind over his forehead, but he paid it no heed. He looked especially handsome, youthful, and untamed at this moment.
"It might be hard, but I can definitely answer it. My dearest Young Miss, my lovely Zhi'er..." he chanted in a hypnotic whisper. "Yes… I do like you. A lot more than you can imagine."
Afterwards, he grinned at her, like a ray of sunlight.
Xiong Zhi felt as if her ears were getting pregnant of his hushed whispers. She felt both relieved and joyful. Her cheeks started to flush. She fidgeted slightly in mixture of happiness and bashfulness.
Yes, her Linfeng liked her. The corner of her lips started to curl up.
Ah, it was a lovely feeling to hear it over again from his lips. If it was possible, she wanted to make him repeat it again every morning, every night,?and every day.
She coughed shyly a bit before asking the second question.
"Next question. What do you like about me?"
Linfeng stared at his Young Miss. This game was a bit strange.
...Did his Young Miss made up the game because she wanted him to assure her that she would not lose him?
He answered seriously.
"That one is not hard at all. But I have a very long list." He stepped closer to her. "I like my Young Miss's eyes which always look at me with affection. I like the Young Miss who always smile so sincerely for me, who wishes the best of the world for me, who first saw what my heart wished for, and what I desire." Linfeng had found it marvelous that his young miss had always put his feelings first. He was the luckiest man in the world as Xiong Zhi chose to give her all attention and care to him.
" I like my Young Miss who keeps pushing the closed doors to know me, even when I felt so insecure and closed up, you kept on knocking on my door to get to me. I fell for the Young Miss whom I stupidly pushed away but still did not give up on me, did not let go of me. I love my Young Miss who is so understanding, so caring—"
As he chanted endlessly, Linfeng reached out towards her. Those times in the past, he did not want to admit his feelings and kept on pushing her away from his mind and heart. But in the end, she won.
All the events from the moment he met the Young Miss were replaying on his mind. Clearly, he had fallen deeply and irrevocably into the pit she had dug for him. He himself never wished to rise from it.
His fingertips touched her soft cheeks and caressed her face as smooth as a peeled egg. "I like my Young Miss who is so understanding, so caring, so stubborn, and strong. I like that, all of you."
His gentle and enigmatic eyes were enchanting as he looked at her.
They were so close together. The late afternoon sun shone before them and casted long shadows of the loving couple on the ground behind.
Xiong Zhi's eyes slowly became watery as she listened to her beloved confess his love to her. His face was close to hers, looking especially handsome with his messy hair. Their foreheads touched.
Xiong Zhi felt his warm breath fan her lips. She unconsciously licked her lips, turning them into a more vibrant reddish color.
Her action immediately caught Linfeng's attention. His eyes were drawn to her cherry red lips. His throat suddenly felt dry.
"Can I have my turn to ask?"
"...Um."
They already forgot about the rules of their game. To hell with it.
"If I do something impolite, will you let me?" Linfeng asked in a whisper, swallowing. His eyes never left her lips.
"..."
This request sounded so familiar. Xiong Zhi felt excitement and anticipation creep up on her heart. Finally, this time, it must happen!
Xiong Zhi gulped, feeling the hot atmosphere between them.
"Yes..."
Linfeng's eyes seemed to devour her. She saw how those beautiful eyes seemed to contain the universe.
He lowered his head decisively.
"Click."
"..."
"..."
The two was frozen for a second. They clearly heard the shutter of a camera.
Linfeng's eyes darkened instantly like a pool of freezing hell.
This...this man!!!
He contained his angry heart and whispered to Xiong Zhi in gritted teeth.
"Young Miss, stay here. I just need to catch that mosquito."
Xiong Zhi nodded immediately. She, too, was angry.
This was the second time.
How maddening!
Could these pests at least let them kiss first?! Their lips could never even get to touch each other!
Her face was chilly like a banshee who came crawling from hell as she looked at Linfeng's back.
Linfeng immediately ran to the direction where they heard the sound come from.
He saw a man running away from him.
Linfeng sped up. He must beat this man to death!
Linfeng knew that the picture must not reach the wrong person's hand. He was not afraid for himself if it got out.
But his Young Miss's reputation would be at risk. He did not want his Young Miss to suffer humiliation and criticism from the public. Considering the direction from where it was taken, his Young Miss's face was clearly exposed.
This made Linfeng even angrier. Whoever it was, he would not let this man destroy his Young Miss's reputation!
