Chapter 421 It must have rained that day
The dance was not held too late.
"Old Qiu."
Xu Cheng patted Qiu Dexian on the back. Qiu Dexian turned around with a look of respect on his face.
"Mr. Xu."
"I'll be leaving first. You should also go back and rest early. We'll see you at the presentation tomorrow."
"Okay, Mr. Xu, don't worry."
Qiu Dexian wanted to see Xu Cheng off, but Xu Cheng thought it was too ostentatious, so he took Lin Wanzhou and took the elevator downstairs.
There was a light drizzle in the sky and the air seemed a little moist. As the wind blew, the wet water vapor flew all over people, causing pedestrians to shiver.
But such a night is not as cool as the temperature.
The night looks quite lively with brightly lit shops, display windows, roadside stalls and couples holding umbrellas.
“Huha.”
Lin Wanzhou raised his arms high and took a breath of fresh air.
Xu Cheng was watching from the side, and always felt that she was like a young sapling at this moment, with her body curves slightly up and down, tender yet eager to move. This made Xu Cheng feel a vague dryness in his throat.
"It's so stuffy inside. The air outside smells better." Lin Wanzhou said.
"After all, everyone is dancing inside and sweating all over. It must smell bad. This is better. You haven't been to a dancer's dance studio yet. There are a bunch of girls practicing dancing there, and they just waste their time on their feet. That smell..."
"What's that smell?"
"Of course it's the smell of stinky feet." Xu Cheng fanned his nose with his hands, as if he was particularly disgusted.
Lin Wanzhou frowned.
Is Xu Cheng really disgusted?
Why did she feel that this kind of place was heaven for this guy?
wrong!
"Have you ever been to the dancers' classroom?"
“Yes.”
Xu Cheng answered casually.
Lin Wanzhou looked suspicious at this time, "You are not a dancer, why are you going into someone else's classroom?"
"Well……"
Only then did Xu Cheng realize that he seemed to have dug a hole and buried himself in it.
"I'm definitely not going to see beautiful women, don't worry about that."
"Of course you didn't go there to see..."
Lin Wanzhou spoke in a sarcastic tone, she felt like bubbles were coming out of her head from jealousy.
"You're such a pervert, who knows if you went there on purpose to... smell it."
Not to mention, the more Lin Wanzhou thought about it, the more he felt that his casual guess was very likely.
hateful!
So angry.
This guy actually dared to smell other girls' feet.
He must be punished to smell her feet for a minute... an hour...
No.
All night long!
"What smell?"
Xu Cheng's face also turned red. "Don't talk nonsense. I remember it now. It happened during the freshman party. You know, I was the director of the party, so of course I had to go and see the dancers' practice."
"Oh, is that so?"
Lin Wanzhou felt that this guy's explanation was quite reasonable.
Well, since he wasn't going to smell other girls' feet, she would not punish him for now.
Xu Cheng had no idea that he had lost some reward.
"Don't get wet in the rain. I'll drive the car over here."
"It's just a little drizzle, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Lin Wanzhou stretched out his hand tentatively from under the eaves. The rain was like soft and soft needles, falling on his hands rashly, causing only a slight numbness.
Xu Cheng originally thought that the girl wanted to go to the parking lot with him, but he didn't expect Lin Wanzhou's sudden proposal.
"Do you dare to walk back with me in the rain, Xu Cheng?"
The boy glanced at the crazy girl.
"I'm fine, but can you...?"
"What's wrong with me? I'm not as frail and sickly as Lin Daiyu."
"No, I mean if I catch a cold, it won't affect my period, right?" When talking about such private topics among girls, Xu Cheng also showed an embarrassed look on her face, "You know, catching a cold seems to cause menstrual cramps."
"Why think so much?"
Lin Wanzhou's face turned slightly red, with a hint of shyness and secret joy on her face.
Hee, is he worried about me?
That's probably how it feels.
When Xu Cheng cared about my most private topics, I felt a sense of excitement that was both stimulating and sweet.
However, compared to being a good girl, the girl's character still had a hint of boldness and rebellion. She took Xu Cheng's arm with her little hand and shook it gently, then looked up at him and spoke in a coquettish tone.
"Well, it's not far from our home anyway, so it's okay to leave the car here overnight, right?"
Xu Cheng thought about it and realized that he really didn't need a car tomorrow. Besides, it was such a short distance from here to his home, and with such a light rain , it shouldn't be a big deal for two people to get wet for a while.
Looking at the rain curtain like smoke and curling, the boy was also moved. This kind of atmosphere and the city walk with the girl he likes seemed quite romantic.
Before the boy opened his mouth, Lin Wanzhou had already trotted out into the rain. When she turned around, the hair on her shoulders swung neatly in a semicircle, like a dance in the rain.
She looked at Xu Cheng, her hands clasped behind her back, her head slightly tilted to the side, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
"Come here quickly, I don't like boys who dilly-dally."
When Xu Cheng heard Lin Wanzhou say this, he walked away quickly with an indifferent look on his face.
The reason why he didn't care was to maintain his decent attitude, and the reason why he walked quickly was because he was afraid that Lin Wanzhou really didn't like him. Even though he knew she was just talking, the boy would not agree.
He gently held the girl's hand.
"Let's go."
He said to her.
Lin Wanzhou did not resist and let Xu Cheng hold her hand. She even moved her tender shoulder closer to the boy's strong and thick arms, causing them to collide from time to time.
"Not cold, is it?"
Xu Cheng expressed concern.
Lin Wanzhou nodded and said, "I'm not afraid even if it gets any colder!"
She's not trying to show off.
But the first half of this sentence was hidden in her mouth -
As long as you are by my side, I am not afraid of the cold!
The night in the foreign concessions is brilliant and full of romance. The two of them walked along the street, curiously looking at the exquisitely decorated shops, feeling overwhelmed.
“The wedding dress is so beautiful.”
When passing by a wedding photography shop, Lin Wanzhou looked at the wedding dress on the model in the window and little stars appeared in her eyes.
"Want to wear it?"
Xu Cheng asked a question from the side. Lin Wanzhou pursed his lips and said nothing, but that did not stop Xu Cheng from saying the next sentence.
"Lin Wanzhou, if you marry me tomorrow, you can also wear this beautiful dress."
I have to say his tone is very persuasive.
The girl's willpower was really shaken by the beautiful wedding dress. She couldn't wait to marry him tomorrow... no, tonight, and wear the wedding dress herself.
But what made Lin Wanzhou even more excited than this sentence was that Xu Cheng said he wanted to marry her. Although it might have been just a casual remark, but...
Get married!
But he is planning to marry her!
This almost made the girl's 19 years of reserve completely gone, and she was so happy that she jumped onto Xu Cheng's waist and hugged him and spun around.
"I don't want to wear it so early."
Lin Wanzhou still held back and looked at the wedding dress with longing in her eyes, "It would be nice if I could wear such a beautiful dress more times."
"Hello!"
Xu Cheng was not happy, "What do you mean, Lin Wanzhou!"
"I just told you to try on wedding dresses more often. Why are you so excited?" The girl blinked like a cunning little fox. "Besides, I didn't say I would definitely marry you."
"???"
Xu Cheng's expression instantly went crazy.
"What do you want to do, Lin Wanzhou!"
Seeing Xu Cheng's angry look, Lin Wanzhou covered his mouth proudly, bent down and laughed for a while.
Then he raised his head, glanced at Xu Cheng, and muttered something in a low voice.
"Why, do you really want to marry me?"
The girl tried hard to hide her anticipation in her eyes.
And Xu Cheng's answer was so certain.
"Yes."
"I really want to marry your Lin Wanzhou."
"You may not know this, but I have actually already started planning our wedding scene. I want to give you the most beautiful wedding in the world, and make you the happiest bride in the world."
The raindrops were cool, but when they hit the girl's face and neck, they all evaporated because of the hot temperature.
Even though she was a little prepared, after hearing Xu Cheng say these words so bluntly, the girl still felt the urge to bury her head in Xu Cheng's arms out of shyness.
"What nonsense are you talking about."
"I'm not saying anything stupid, I'm serious."
"whispering sound."
"Hey, look ahead."
Xu Cheng pointed ahead. Under the street light, a small tricycle with a sign selling sweet water was moving slowly forward.
Because it was an uphill section, and there were some thermos barrels installed at the back of the tricycle, the old man riding in the front had to pedal hard, but the tricycle seemed unable to go up. There was also a little boy and a little girl pushing hard at the back of the tricycle.
Without much hesitation, Xu Cheng strode over to help push the cart.
Lin Wanzhou also hurried over to lend a hand.
"Little boy, let your brothers and sisters come."
After saying something to the two children, he replaced the boy and girl's positions and joined hands to push the cart up.
With their help, the car drove onto this section of road easily.
The old man riding the bicycle in front was very grateful and kept saying thank you. He also wanted to treat the two of them to sweet soup. Even though the two said no, they still forced them to have a portion of candied pear.
Lin Wanzhou took a bite and showed some surprise on her face, "It's delicious, you try it."
She put the spoon to Xu Cheng's mouth. Xu Cheng took a bite and found it to be refreshingly sweet with a hint of fragrance, not greasy at all.
He looked down at the two children beside him who were looking at him eagerly and asked softly.
"Are you brother and sister, or sister and brother?"
“We were classmates in kindergarten…”
The boy seemed a little introverted, but the little girl with pigtails looked much more generous and emphasized loudly beside him.
"No, I'm Liangliang's wife. I'm going to marry him when I grow up."
Xu Cheng and Lin Wanzhou burst into laughter, while the little boy named Liangliang lowered his head shyly.
After a brief chat, the two said goodbye to the old man and two children. Xu Cheng took the candied pear tea that Lin Wanzhou had drunk, finished it quickly, and then threw the box into the nearest trash can.
When he came back, Lin Wanzhou seemed to have something to say, and seemed hesitant to speak.
Perhaps because her hair was wet, it looked like it had been permed, with the ends slightly curled and sticking to her temples. Her already pretty face looked even more charming .
"What's wrong?"
Xu Cheng knew that she must have something to say, so he rolled up his sleeves and wiped the water off her face. When his palm touched her little face, it felt soft and cool.
"Xu Cheng..."
She looked into his eyes.
His eyes seemed to be dodging, but he was always looking firmly.
"Actually, it would be nice to marry you."
The girl's voice was soft, like the sound of raindrops dripping on a calm lake, making even the ripples seem so subtle.
There was a thin mist around the boy and the girl.
Xu Cheng could hear an unknown song playing on a speaker not far away on the street, and the sound of raindrops hitting the leaves was also in his ears.
But after Lin Wanzhou opened her mouth, everything became silent, with only the girl's tiny voice ringing clearly in her ears.
At this moment, Lin Wanzhou was not at all as arrogant as the little girl who just said she wanted to marry the little boy.
But Xu Cheng could understand what the meaning and courage behind saying such words meant to a young girl after shedding her childhood innocence.
"Then let's get married as soon as we graduate." He couldn't help but touch her head.
More than ever before, Xu Cheng hoped that his life would speed up rapidly and he could graduate in no time.
"I, I still have to go to graduate school...at least until I finish graduate school."
"I can't wait. I absolutely can't wait."
Xu Cheng looked anxious, and Lin Wanzhou felt even more embarrassed. She covered her eyes and dared not look at him again.
"It's annoying. I can't run away again."
Then he put his hands down and thought about the future.
"But the day we get married must be a rainy day."
"Rainy day?" Xu Cheng was stunned. "Why? People usually get married on sunny days."
"Don't you think it was special? It was a windy and rainy day, and everyone was soaked from head to toe. We were soaked too. I was wearing a wedding dress and you were wearing a suit. You dragged me around in my wedding dress, but we were both smiling. I'm sure I'll remember this wedding for the rest of my life."
“Is that so?”
Xu Cheng listened carefully to the girl describing the scene she was thinking about, then nodded thoughtfully.
"I didn't expect that some people who say they don't like me and hate me all the time actually have already thought about what the weather will be like on the wedding day."
"Hate."
Lin Wanzhou was so angry that she picked up her bag and hit him on the head. Of course, this action was very gentle. She didn't want to smack her... groom...
Ugh.
It's a childhood sweetheart.
She didn't want to knock him into a fool.
Who made him so stupid?
Even if she never said it.
Doesn’t he know that her answer must be “I do”?
