To Love You Again

Chapter 330 - A promise (II)

Chapter 330 - A promise (II)

He kissed her hair. The calming fragrance of lavender from her shampoo and her own natural scent reached his nose, tickling at his heart.

Linfeng breathed in her scent. He did not let go and just continued raining butterfly kisses on her head.

Xiong Zhi felt warm and safe in his strong embrace. She leaned against him, encircled her arms around his slim waist, and rubbed her cheeks against his strong, wide chest.

She quietly listened to the rhythmic sound of his heartbeat.

The early autumn wind swept into the garden, sweeping up a few fallen leaves around them.

They stayed in place, enjoying the peaceful time.

How she wished they could forever stay like this. No separation. No conspiracies.

But in their lives, with the way they were born, standing up high in the society with many people trying to pull them down, they needed to fight and prepare for everything.

In order to have a successful love and peaceful future, they needed to overcome all the tribulations that came their way.

Linfeng pressed his face on Xiong Zhi's head, whispering, "Zhi'er, I will surely come back. And when I come back, liberated from everything, I will definitely stick with you 24/7. You have my word."

Xiong Zhi looked up with her head still lying against his chest, her little face an inch away from Linfeng's.

"Even when I'm showering?"

"..."

He tensed.

Wanton pictures were instantly conjured up in his mind one after another.

His body heated up and his throat suddenly felt dry.

He felt a bit helpless.

Young Miss, why do you have to ask... unexpected questions like that?

But Linfeng's inner demon bit the bait that his little woman had thrown to him in an innocent invitation.

The corner of his lips raised up.

"If you like it, then, I am willing."

Xiong Zhi blinked.

She mistook his words as 'If you like it, then, I am willing to live with you'.

So basically in the future, they would live together?

Xiong Zhi's eyes sparkled.

Linfeng was just teasing her. He was expecting Young Miss to blush but was confused instead when the Young Miss's eyes seemed to brighten more.

'...'

Would she really do that? Showering together with him?

He looked at the girl in his arms, and another image replaced the current scenery.

Within his arms, Xiong Zhi's long dark hair was slightly wet, her cheeks flushed red due to the hot shower, her jade body smooth and bare, and her longs white legs exposed below. Drops of water clung to her cheeks, rolled down to her neck, and to the gully below...

Linfeng's face instantly burned. He could feel his body slowly reacting.

Too dangerous! And they were still at the Xiong Mansion!

Xiong Zhi who was close to his chest heard the fast and loud beating of his heart.

Was he too excited about living together, like her?

Then she noticed that he was red from neck to ears.

Linfeng regained his thoughts and met Xiong Zhi's brilliant eyes.

"Cough!" He coughed. He was a man with normal orientation and natural urges. After that passionate kiss with his Young Miss, from time to time, his mind would naturally wander to some rated 18 images of him and his Young Miss. The trip to the bathroom became more often and longer each time.

He shook his head to clear his mind.

Darn! His Young Miss was too young for that. Also, she did not seem to know the implications of her actions, even after his warning before about proper distance with men.

He's a virile man, too!

If Xiong Zhi knew what he was thinking about, she would have offered herself willingly and become a passionate student learning 'those' things with him.

Linfeng calmed himself down. He did not answer her question and changed the topic.

"Did you talk to your grandfather about Xiong De's machinations?"

Linfeng still have that in mind. His men were moving quietly, tracing down every one of Xiong De's dark deals with the underworld. He would not let that man easily get away from what he had done. Just thinking about it still made him upset.

Xiong Zhi was surprised for a moment, but she immediately calmed down and her eyes turned faintly cold.

"Yes, I already told grandfather about it. Grandpa will help me."

"Did Master Xiong decide to punish them?"

"Because of lacking evidences, he cannot really accuse my good uncle up front."

"So it was through other means then."

"Um. Tomorrow, Grandpa will teach him a small lesson. Let him taste a bit of suffering first," she said with a cold glint in her eyes. "There will be more to come in the future."

"He deserves it."

"Um." She sighed. "Things would get really busy soon. You will not be the only one totally busy in the upcoming two years."

Xiong Zhi would also have to prepare a lot for the upcoming battle of the Xiong inheritance. Two years later, once she secured Linfeng back to her side, she would start her long-awaited revenge.

She knew it would not be an easy play. So she has to put these two years into good use. Traps must be laid.

Linfeng knew that his Young Miss has a lot of mysteries in her body. She had many secrets. But no matter what they were, he would support her.

Linfeng brushed her hair. The soft and silky sensation was addicting.

"That cruel decree—I mean, Young Miss's instruction to not meet, if you ever changed your mind, please tell me. I will surely come running."

"…Don't tempt me."

Linfeng chuckled.

This two years would likely be a bit difficult for his Young Miss, he got to make his father promise to him that Xiong Zhi would not suffer.

"...I really don't want to leave you for such a long time."

"But that period is too pivotal for us. We both have to work hard for the future."

"Yes." Linfeng's eyes glinted. He must develop himself first. Only when he was powerful enough would he stop becoming her burden and help her in turn. "You must be absolutely careful when I'm not by your side."

Xiong Zhi nodded. "You don't have to worry about me. Grandpa now knows about the threats on my safety, so he will watch out for me. It is you I'm worried about. Do not forget to eat proper meals. You focus too much in your work that you sometimes forget to eat." She pinched his waist in reproach. She did not talk much but she was willing to spend all her saliva on scolding Linfeng.

Xiong Zhi's words gave Linfeng an idea. His eyes lit up.

"Then Young Miss, since you are worried about me, can we at least have dinner every day together through video calls? And at least five minutes of talk before sleeping?"

Linfeng could not really stand not seeing her, so he would have to satisfy himself through other means.

Xiong Zhi brightened up as well. She pressed down the curvature of her lips and seriously nodded. "But make sure that your time with me will not be a bother."

Linfeng grinned. "Of course, it's not! I will make sure to call you whenever I have time to rest. I need some strength too, you know. You're not the only one who needs a recharge," he laughed.

"Does it mean I can give you strength, too?" Like how he gave her strength? She inwardly added.

Linfeng lowered his head. Their faces were only inches part.

"Of course you do. That's why I need to see you, in order to encourage myself, my little Zhi'er."

He saw how the girl's eyes curved up into small crescents. He could clearly see stars within them.

Seeing her joyful, he felt happy as well.

Jang Shin once told him before in one of his random ramblings that girls liked to hear romantic sweet nothings. It seemed to be true.

Romantic, huh.

He looked up briefly and confirmed that no one was around.

To make her happier, he added some cheesy lines that his past self would never say.

He cleared his throat.

"In the past week, I can't really sleep well because I keep thinking about you."

The straight ball girl's eyes lit up. She experienced that, too! So she was not alone in this.

"I also think about you every night! I even dreamed of you!" Her voice was unusually excited, and it faintly echoed within the garden.
