After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

There seemed to be a dark fire burning deep in Lu Siheng's heart. Lin Qingran was a little overwhelmed. She instinctively grabbed his collar with her fingers. At the moment when she was almost dizzy from the kiss, she pushed Lu Siheng hard and panted softly, "No, I'm suffocating."

Lu Siheng put his arms around her and looked her up and down. Her peach blossom eyes were misty and she looked very emotional.

He curled the corners of his lips slightly, brushed away the strands of hair on the side of her face with one hand, and gently kissed her forehead.

Lin Qingran grabbed his hand and asked, "What do you want to tell me?"

Lu Siheng looked at her with sparkling eyes, "I want you to be my girlfriend."

Lin Qingran slightly widened her eyes, looked at him for a while, and smiled, "Aren't we considered boyfriend and girlfriend now?"

Lu Siheng's eyes lit up, "Does it count?"

"What do you say?"

Lu Siheng looked into her eyes and said, "Then just tell me that you agree to be my girlfriend."

Lin Qingran refused, "No."

It's already so obvious, and yet she still says such things. It's childish and a bit shameful.

Lu Siheng pestered her, not giving up until he achieved his goal, "Say you are willing to be my girlfriend."

Lin Qingran's fair cheeks were now completely red, "Okay, I do."

These few simple words obviously pleased Lu Siheng. He seemed to want to be even closer to her. He lowered his head, breathed against her neck, and showered her with kisses on her delicate skin.

Lin Qingran was somewhat helpless as he pestered her, "Lu Siheng, why are you so clingy?"

Lu Siheng kissed her for another two or three seconds, raised his head, and raised the corners of his mouth, "Because I like you very much, so I want to smell your scent and kiss you."

He spoke too bluntly, and Lin Qingran blushed again.

"I've never seen you like this before."

I don’t know who I was showing my asexual look to before.

"How do you know I didn't like it before?" Lu Siheng asked back, "My likes are all hidden in my heart."

Lin Qingran was a little embarrassed by his cheesy words, and thought he was just trying to please her, "Don't use such flowery words in the future."

Lu Siheng said innocently, "I'm not saying sweet words, I'm serious."

Seeing that he was pretending to be quite enthusiastic, Lin Qingran raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm going to change my shoes."

She was suddenly pulled in by Lu Siheng just now and she didn't even have time to change her shoes.

Lu Siheng hurriedly said attentively: "Sit down, I will change it for you."

Lin Qingran sat down on the stool for changing shoes in the entrance hall.

Lu Siheng bent down in front of her, took off her boots, and put the fluffy slippers on her feet. "Okay."

Lin Qingran stood up slowly and walked towards the restaurant.

The table was already filled with several dishes.

"Do you like it? If you don't want to eat it, I can make it again." Lu Siheng looked at her with a hint of expectation.

Lin Qingran teased him, "Guess, Chef Lu."

Lu Siheng seemed very satisfied with the title bestowed upon him by Lin Qingran. He raised his lips proudly and confidently and said, "These must be what you like to eat."

He had a memo specifically for studying the taste of Lin Qingran's usual cuisine. Every time they ate together, he would silently note in his mind the dishes she ate the most and summarize them in the memo.

Lin Qingran didn't say anything. She walked upstairs slowly and came down again a few minutes later with a Band-Aid in her hand.

She walked towards Lu Siheng while tearing off the Band-Aid, "Why are you so careless?"

Lu Siheng was sitting on the sofa. He turned his head to look at her when he heard her voice, and raised the corner of his mouth, "Ranran is so considerate."

While cooking, all he could think about was Lin Qingran, and he was a little absent-minded. His index finger was cut by the knife, and Lin Qingran happened to press the doorbell at that time, so he didn't have time to find a Band-Aid.

Lin Qingran stood in front of him, asked her to stretch out her hand, and carefully put the Band-Aid on the wound. After confirming that it was perfectly applied, she prepared to open.

"The meal is not ready yet, please sit for a while." Lu Siheng pulled her over and patted his thigh with one hand, the hint was obvious.

Lin Qingran glanced at him, her ears burning, "What are you doing?"

Lu Siheng looked at her expectantly, "Sit on my lap."

Although they were the only two people in the room, Lin Qingran still looked around subconsciously out of shyness. She met Lu Siheng's gaze and whispered, "Why are you so..."

"Huh?" Lu Siheng was puzzled. "What's wrong with me?"

"you……"

Before she could finish, Lu Siheng put his arms around her and pulled her over.

Lin Qingran's center of balance was unstable, so he pushed her down and made her sit on his lap.

She reflexively wrapped her arms around his neck, her face brushing against his cheek inadvertently.

Lin Qingran's heart burned, "Lu Siheng, what are you doing?"

As she spoke, she was about to stand up, but he held her tightly with one arm.

Lu Siheng put his lips close to her ear and said in a nagging tone, "What's wrong with sitting for a while? Didn't you say you were willing to be my girlfriend?"

"Lu Siheng, we seem too clingy like this." Lin Qingran said embarrassedly, gently pushing his chest with her hand, trying to get up from his legs.

In Lu Siheng's view, her tiny strength was even less than that of an ant.

He easily grabbed her hand, kissed the back of her hand gently, and said with a smile: "There's no one else here, so what's wrong with being a little sticky?"

Lin Qingran sighed, "You have changed, Lu Siheng."

This person was never like this before.

"What's changed?" Lu Siheng lowered his head and kissed the tip of her nose. "It's you who has changed. You are totally different from seven years ago. At that time, you were still a delicate and tender little girl. When I saw you when I returned to China, I almost didn't recognize you."

Lin Qingran frowned, "Seven years ago? Did we meet seven years ago?"

"You forgot again, didn't you?" Lu Siheng pinched her palm and said, "We met seven years ago near New York's Grand Central Station. You took me to eat pizza and gave me a scarf."

Lin Qingran listened and narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Lu Siheng, you are not mistaking another woman for me, are you?"

As far as she could remember, she had never met Lu Siheng before.

Seven years ago, that seemed like a long time ago.

"No, Lin Qingran, even if you turn into ashes I will not admit my mistake." Lu Siheng said.

Lin Qingran was silent for a while, then said awkwardly: "It's not like he'll turn into ashes."

Lu Siheng smiled, "Uncle Lin went to the United States on a business trip at that time, you should have come with him..."

At this point, he seemed to remember something and took out a cropped photo from his wallet and handed it to her, "Look and see if that's you in the photo."

The photo is very blurry. I don’t know how many years Lu Siheng has kept it. The edges are worn out beyond recognition.

Lin Qingran held the photo in her hand. Although it was blurry, she could still tell that the little girl in the store was indeed her.

She was a little surprised, "Is this true? Where is this?"
