You're My Only Star

Chapter 223 - Wife

Song Xing Xing watched the scene in front of her in a daze. Seeing that everyone was still fighting for the red packets that Lu Xun had sent out, she quickly snapped out of her trance and fight for them as well.

These are the money that her boyfriend had sent out. Why would she let others take more than her?

However... how much money did he had spent on this one night? Lu Xun was really acting like a local tyrant in their server at this time.

He really did not care much about spending his money, didn't he?

In the end, Song Xing Xing managed to collect five of them and her ingots had increased again. Then, she had also received some ingots from her friends who had attended the wedding ceremony.

Song Xing Xing looked at the ingots she had and had this feeling that she had become a rich woman..

It actually felt great.

Seeing that Lu Xun had stopped sending red packets in the local channel, Song Xing Xing went to her photo album to check on her screenshots.

After picking up the best-looking ones, Song Xing Xing uploaded them to her moments with the caption, 'Married'.

Once she had clicked the post button, Song Xing Xing finally raised her head to look at him.

She did not know what was on his mind at this moment, but Lu Xun continued to stare at his phone screen with a dazed look on his face.

"Lu Xun? What are you looking at?" Song Xing Xing waved her hand at him a few times but the main remained unresponsive. After a while, she moved closer to peek at his phone screen.

A look of surprise flashed on her face as Song Xing Xing realized that Lu Xun was staring at the wedding certificate that they had obtained from the game.

Suddenly, Song Xing Xing was feeling very shy. 

That was only some certificate they received in the game. Why was he staring at this for a long time and had even acted as if it was a real thing? He did not even notice that she had called him.

Pursing her lips, Song Xing Xing stretched out her hand to block his view from his phone. "Lu Xun?"

The man blinked a few times before he finally raised his head to look at her.

The moment their gazes met, Song Xing Xing could hear her heartbeat accelerate. She could not understand what it was but there was something in his eyes that made her drawn into his.

Song Xing Xing opened and closed her mouth a few times but in the end, she was unable to say a word.

The silence between them lasted for a couple of minutes.

Lu Xun leaned forward until the tip of his nose was touching hers. Suddenly, his lips curled into a smile and making her dizzy.

"Wife."

Her breath hitched and Song Xing Xing could feel her body tingling all over as she heard his word. Heat crept on her body, turning her face red.

Something exploded in her mind and just like that, her mind turned blank.

This person. How did he casually call her 'wife'?

"You... You... You..."

Lu Xun raised a brow. "What is it about me?"

"How can you call me that?"

"How did I call you?" The smile on his lips widened. Lu Xun seemed to be enjoying himself teasing his girlfriend and watching as her face turned bright red. "Wife?"

Song Xing Xing choked on her breath.

What wife? They were not a married couple.

"Why can't I address you as my wife? We are married, aren't we?" Lu Xun raised the phone in his hand. "You see, we already received our marriage certificate."

"That's only in the game," Song Xing Xing said "It's not in real life."

He should know the difference between in-game and in real life, right? Why is he doing this to her?

"Oh." Lu Xun lowered his head as if hiding his disappointment. Before Song Xing Xing could do or say something about it, Lu Xun had raised his head again. "Then... Song Xing Xing." He stared into her eyes for a few seconds longer. "When are you going to marry me?"

He had always wanted to know her opinion on marriage. Since they were talking about this topic, they should continue and discuss this matter.

Song Xing Xing grew exasperated at his question.

Why did he ask her such a question?

What is this? It couldn't be that he was proposing to her at this time right?

Song Xing Xing wanted to ask him but she did not think that it would be appropriate to ask.

What if he was really proposing? Then, what should she answer him?

Lu Xun stretched his hand to tuck a few strands of hair behind her ears. "You don't want to?"

Song Xing Xing had a feeling as if she was going to faint anytime soon. The stress was just too much for her to handle.

"I didn't say that."

The corner of his lips tilted up slightly. "Then... do you want to?"

"I did not say that either." Song Xing Xing lowered her head and took a deep breath. Now that she was no longer looking into his eyes, Song Xing Xing found that she could breathe better. "Why are you asking me these questions? Lu Xun, you're bullying me."

Hearing that the girl seemed very close to tears, Lu Xun suddenly grew afraid.

He only wanted to tease her a little bit while finding the answer he wanted to know. What if she started to cry?

He would not know what he would do about it.

"I'm not bullying you."

"Then, what are you doing?"

"We have been dating for a while. I just wanted to know what do you think about marriage? Song Xing Xing, in your future, do you see yourself marrying me? In the future... do you want to get married?"

Song Xing Xing licked at her lips. "I don't know."

"You don't know?" Seeing the way she was looking at him, Lu Xun realized that he might have pressured the girl a little too much. Lu Xun took a deep breath to calm down. "Xing Xing, don't be nervous. I am not asking if you wanted to get married right now. This is not a proposal either."

If he was going to propose, this was not the way that he will ask her. His Xing Xing deserved something better. She deserved the best from him. If he wanted to propose, he will have to make a thorough plan.

"I'm sorry." Lu Xun pulled the girl into his embrace and patted her on her back to soothe her. "Don't think too much about it."

He had suddenly mentioned marriage. How can she not get nervous? It was scaring her, alright?

In the future... she does want to get married. However, if he asked her at this time and at this place... she was not ready for it.

Song Xing Xing realized that she needed to give this matter a long thought.
