Chapter 247 - You Won’t Be Alone Anymore (1)

The weather up north was considerably cooler than what Su Xiaofei was used to back in Qiying City. She thought that with the late notice she had given to Lu Qingfeng, both of them would have a hard time finding a place to stay for the night, but she was mistaken.

With Nine's help, Lu Qingfeng was able to book two private rooms for them to use that night. The inn was located in the western part of the province, with mountains on one side and a huge lake on another, it was a magnificent view for guests and travelers like them to enjoy the scenery.

In particular, Su Xiaofei hadn't expected to see a bunch of chrysanthemum flowers blooming in this season or maybe her geographical knowledge about this place was really limited. It was a good thing that Lu Qingfeng and Nine came with her or else, she would need to trouble the Zhang siblings to care for her needs on this trip.

She and Lu Qingfeng were having dinner at the dining area of the inn, which was facing the calm lake under a starry night. The calmness of the scenery was far from the busy streets and fast paced life they both have back in Qiying City.

A moment like this allowed Su Xiaofei to reflect on her way of living and how exceptionally different her life was compared to the one she had in her previous life. She couldn't remember being this calm and content when she was with Mo Yuchen.

After the first year of their marriage, the two had often been at each other's neck with no one willing to back down on their argument. Su Xiaofei's mind had been occupied with things regarding work and how she could defeat Ye Mingyu, to prove that she was better than the latter.

'How foolish.' Su Xiaofei thought as she held a steaming cup of tea with a small smile gracing her lips.

"I don't know what kind of date you have in your mind. Does this suit your taste?"

The sudden question Lu Qingfeng threw her way caused Su Xiaofei to snap her head towards him and stared at him with confusion. It took her a moment to realize what he was thinking about. She blinked slowly upon realization.

Lu Qingfeng's smile faltered when she remained silent. He was fine if this was their date, so long as they were together and could enjoy each other's company.

"I see, then I'll do better next time. You must be tired from our long travels." He said as he pushed his hurt aside, in order to make sure that Su Xiaofei was comfortable.

This place was unlike the urban cities they used to visit and there weren't many attractions to visit and see as a couple.

If they were back at Qiying City, it would be easy for him to reserve a fancy restaurant Su Xiaofei might like, take her out to the mall for the day, buy her whatever she wanted and end the day by sending her up to her doorsteps. Alas, with limited time and options, Lu Qingfeng could only prepare a special dinner for her like this.

"Well, I think we're on a date." Su Xiaofei smiled at him. "It's the thought that counts, Xiao Feng. You don't need to prepare lavish gifts and take me to a fancy restaurant to consider it as a date. It's enough that you have me in your mind when you make these preparations."

Her words made his gut squirm a little and Lu Qingfeng looked away. He was looking flustered and was desperate to bring his attention to something else other than her slightly pale lips. It had truly been a challenge for him to stop himself from pinning her in the corner and kissing her senselessly as he wanted to.

Thankfully, the need to ensure that she was happy and well was able to overcome his desire to possess her.

"We can take a stroll tomorrow and look around if you don't mind. The inn owner told me that the sunrise looks good this season." He suggested, feeling that this mere dinner couldn't count as a date with her.

They had dined together a couple of times, and Lu Qingfeng wanted to make this special between them.

"Xiao Feng, are you sure you want to be with me?" Su Xiaofei suddenly asked, much to his surprise.

Lu Qingfeng scowled at her.

"What kind of question is this, Feifei? You should know the answer to this question already."

Su Xiaofei raised a slender brow as she noticed that Lu Qingfeng was looking bashful, something she rarely saw on him. Lu Qingfeng was always calm and collected, and it's rare to find him in an uncomfortable state.

"Even if the whole world hates me?" She asked, because there's no doubt that Ye Mingyu and Mo Yuchen would not be her only enemies in the future.

After her divorce with Mo Yuchen in her previous life, Su Xiaofei thought that ambitious women like her would only have two options in life. It was either to gain a supportive partner or to lead a lonely life. She then decided to keep herself out of love and would rather stay alone and rely on no one. It wasn't until Lu Qingfeng came to her that her views started to change, slowly but surely.

"I can't promise to solve all your problems, but I can promise that you won't have to face them alone from now on. Is this enough, Xiaofei?" Lu Qingfeng asked in return.

Su Xiaofei felt moved by his words. Before her death and before Lu Qingfeng found her, she had always felt alone. She had always wondered what it would feel like to have someone who could truly understand her and won't get tired of her.

Initially, she didn't want to fall in love or need someone.. She really didn't want anything but to exact revenge, but then Lu Qingfeng appeared and now she wanted to experience what love truly was.
