Chapter 136 I Love You Too
Chapter 136 I Love You Too
Lu Mingxuan looked up and gestured with his eyes. Song Qiao then realized that the pillow had gone to her side.
"You mean I took the pillow?" Song Qiao looked confused.
Then he looked at the pillow next to her, her ears were red. When Lu Mingxuan saw her like this, he remembered that in high school, she was teased and people said that she and Jiang Ming were the school beauty and the school hunk. She had the same expression.
At that time, Lu Mingxuan felt not only envy, but also jealousy.
"Qiao Qiao!" Lu Mingxuan's Adam's apple bobbed; he was starting to lose control.
Seeing Lu Mingxuan walking towards her, Song Qiao quickly looked at him and backed away: "No! I said I can only agree to your request on the day I get a divorce."
Lu Mingxuan looked pained: "If I don't do something, people will think I have a physical defect."
Song Qiao tried to block his leaning body with her hand: "You're perfectly fine, I saw it last night."
"Huh? You saw it? You actually did it while I was sleeping..." Lu Mingxuan said, looking like he had been raped.
Before he could finish speaking, Song Qiao gritted her teeth in anger: "Lu Mingxuan...!"
Song Qiao was so angry that she couldn't help but call out his full name, pretending to be angry.
Lu Mingxuan finally laughed: "I was just teasing you. Don't I know my own body best? Qiaoqiao! I really wanted to..."
Before he could move, Song Qiao immediately sat up: "Get up, come with me for a walk in the mountains."
Song Qiao understood. If she stayed in bed any longer, even if Lu Mingxuan didn't make a move, she wouldn't be able to control herself. All she could think about now was Lu Mingxuan's strong physique and alluring eyes.
Lu Mingxuan was right. If she couldn't resist such a handsome man, there must be something wrong with her.
"Alright!" Lu Mingxuan reluctantly agreed.
He sat up but didn't immediately put on his clothes. Instead, he put his hands together like a devout believer and muttered something. Song Qiao laughed and asked, "What are you muttering?"
"I pray that you get a divorce soon and that God will give my Qiaoqiao back to me."
Song Qiao was so moved by Lu Mingxuan's actions that she stopped putting on her sweater.
He has waited for her for so many years, can't she sacrifice something for him?
With this thought in mind, Song Qiao dressed even faster, afraid that she would pounce on Lu Mingxuan the next second and become uncontrollable.
After getting dressed, Song Qiao hurriedly left the room and breathed a long sigh of relief in the corridor.
The air in the resort is fresh and pleasant; even the rooms are different from those in the city.
Song Qiao went to the washroom and stood by the sink. She noticed that the shelf was fully stocked with skincare products. Just as she was wondering if they were for Yun Miao, Lu Mingxuan leaned against the door and said, "These are for you. Do you like them?"
"You even... prepared this?"
Song Qiao suddenly remembered a saying: "If someone cares about you, they'll worry you've caught a cold if you cough; if someone doesn't care about you, they'll think you're asleep even if you're dead." Judging from what Lu Mingxuan did for her, she was always in his heart.
"Yes, hurry up and wash up. We'll go downstairs later. I bet Grandpa and Aunt Yun will be exercising outside around this time."
Lu Mingxuan saw her standing there in a daze and reminded her.
Hearing that Lu Wenguang and Yun Miao had the habit of getting up early to exercise, Song Qiao became curious and quickly washed her face, applied some water and lotion, and came out: "Go wash up, I'll go downstairs to wait for you and also check on my dad."
Song Qiao doesn't wear makeup; she always goes bare-faced because she has fair skin, delicate features, and a naturally beautiful appearance—she's the kind of person who's born with natural beauty.
Lu Mingxuan tidied himself up briefly, then picked up an electric shaver and shaved the beard under his mouth. He looked at himself in the mirror and went downstairs.
When they arrived downstairs, Song Qiao was just coming out of Song Jianguo's room. Lu Mingxuan asked, "How is Uncle?"
"Still the same!"
Seeing the faint sadness in Song Qiao's eyes, Lu Mingxuan walked to Song Qiao's side and put his arm around her shoulder.
"Don't worry, there's an old saying that goes, 'Illness comes like a landslide, but healing is like pulling silk from a cocoon.' A slow recovery is better for your health."
Song Qiao looked up at Lu Mingxuan. At this moment, the word "lust" had disappeared from her mind. She nodded at him.
"Mingxuan, thank goodness for you."
She really wanted to say, "Thank goodness I have you in this life," but after thinking about it, she decided to drop the "this life."
"Come on! I'll take you for a walk. The air on the mountain is so fresh in the morning. If you stay here for a while, you won't want to go back to the city."
Song Qiao nodded and walked out with Lu Mingxuan.
Sure enough, as soon as they stepped out of the gate, they saw Lu Wenguang practicing Tai Chi in the square outside. Yun Miao was beside him, moving in unison with him, her steps synchronized.
At this moment, Lu Wenguang didn't look like someone using a cane at all; he looked more like a healthy old man with white hair and a youthful face.
Yunmiao's set of punches was fluid and graceful, her expression composed, making her appear much more refined and elegant.
"Mingxuan, when we get old, let's come to a place like this and live a life in this paradise, free from worldly strife, with only mountains and rivers for company."
Lu Mingxuan took the opportunity to hold her hand: "As long as you like it, we will settle down here in the future. You don't know, do you? The scenery here is even more beautiful in the summer."
Song Qiao also liked this place and nodded: "Winter has its beauty, and naturally summer has its beauty too."
Imagine how magnificent this place must be on a day with heavy snowfall.
"Come on! I'll take you for a walk over there."
Without disturbing Lu Wenguang and Yun Miao, the two walked up the mountain from the other side.
In winter, all the other trees on the mountain have lost their leaves, but the pines and cypresses still remain green despite the severe cold.
"Qiaoqiao, come here when you have time this weekend. I'll take you to the back mountain. There's a natural cave there with stalactites inside."
Song Qiao's eyes lit up with surprise: "Really?"
"real!"
At this moment, Song Qiao put aside her work and forgot all her worries; all she could see was the mountain and her beloved boy.
Whenever she thought of Lu Mingxuan, the image of him wiping her body last night flashed through her mind.
"careful!"
Lu Mingxuan looked down at the stone under his feet to remind Song Qiao, but it was too late. She lost her footing and was about to slip when he reached out and caught her.
Nestled in Lu Mingxuan's arms, Song Qiao felt no chill of the morning, only the scent of mint emanating from him. At that moment, her mind was blank except for the man before her.
Lu Mingxuan lowered his head, while Song Qiao looked up. Their eyes met, and sparks of love flickered in them.
Lu Mingxuan kissed her, and this time she neither dodged nor refused. The two embraced tightly, feeling the warmth of their love for each other in the quiet mountain forest.
"Baby! I love you."
After keeping these words bottled up inside for so many years, Lu Mingxuan finally blurted them out.
"I love you too!"
Song Qiao met his burning lips, and the two embraced.
