As she entered the restaurant, she smelled the delicious aroma, closed her beautiful eyes slightly, and craned her neck to peer inside.
"You're back? Hurry up and wash up, dinner will be ready soon."
Wow, what day is it today? Such a lavish feast!
A table full of delicious food made Qilin's eyes light up.
"Today marks one month since we met, so we should definitely celebrate!"
"Hehe, you still remember this? Hmm, we should definitely celebrate."
After returning to her room, Qi Lin took a good shower and dressed up before going back to the restaurant.
Like a first love
He plopped down in the chair, enjoying the bowl and chopsticks that Xu Feng handed him.
Then, I saw Xu Feng set out red candles and red wine.
"Wow, so formal?"
"A candlelight dinner to celebrate our one-month anniversary, hoping for an even happier and more fulfilling future."
"whee..."
Xu Feng's words made Qi Lin's cheeks blush slightly.
However, spending these days together has made her more open-minded.
Xu Feng respected her a lot, even though he would sometimes take advantage of her.
However, it definitely didn't cross her bottom line.
Qilin was very satisfied with all of this.
The restaurant lights suddenly dimmed, and a few red candles cast a mysterious atmosphere over the room.
The candlelight flickered, whether out of shyness or the light itself, it was hard to tell.
At this moment, a slight blush appeared on Qi Lin's pretty face.
Beautiful, blinking eyes; delicate features; slender, graceful figure.
It is a feast for the eyes and a sight to behold.
Her heart fluttered once again.
Chapter 18 Preparing to Take Down Qi Lin
Full moon candlelight dinner.
Qi Lin couldn't help but think of many things.
Although a month is not a long time, it was enough for Qi Lin to endure under Xu Feng's fierce attacks.
He exuded an indescribable aura.
Even though he is still very young, he is incredibly mature and composed.
Although she can be clingy at times, those are almost always tactics she uses on Qi Lin.
They treat outsiders and servants in a very proper and conventional way.
These past few days of interaction have made Qilin feel very warm and comfortable.
There's no so-called threshold of matching social status, nor any messy rules.
Perhaps, he really is a very good choice.
By candlelight, Qi Lin looked up at Xu Feng.
His casual attire accentuated his youthful charm.
For some reason, in this atmosphere, Qi Lin suddenly felt her heart beat a little faster.
"Xu Feng, can I ask you a question?"
After thinking for a moment, Qi Lin decided to ask the question that had been on her mind for many days.
"Oh? Sure, go ahead and ask."
"You, um, do you really love me?"
"Uh, why do you ask that?"
"Because you are still young, I think that what you consider love might be gratitude."
Yes, gratitude—that's what Qilin has been keeping bottled up inside these past few days.
"What gratitude?"
"Phew, do you remember the first time we met?"
"Yes, I remember. I was bullied by a group of thugs who even tried to kidnap me. Luckily, you, the embodiment of justice, appeared."
Honestly, you were absolutely gorgeous back then.
"Pah, what nonsense are you spouting?"
What do you mean by "perfect" or "not perfect"? Only an immature child would say that.
"That's why I asked you, was it because I left a deep impression on you back then that you became interested in me?"
"Is there anything wrong with this?"
"Definitely. If that's the case, then this isn't pure love, but rather, repaying a debt of gratitude, or rather, feeling thankful..."
"No no no..."
Xu Feng knew what Qi Lin wanted to say; he understood Qi Lin's personality very well.
According to the original storyline, justice is what she upholds.
She has her own principles in doing things. Just like in the original story, even if ordinary soldiers from Earth attacked China, her gun would not be pointed at those ordinary people.
In her words, the gun in her hand was only for aliens or demons.
When faced with unpleasant things, they keep them to themselves so as not to trouble others.
She perfectly embodies the image of a gentle, approachable older sister next door.
Xu Feng didn't want Qi Lin to become that kind of person.
Before the plot begins, he wants Qi Lin to maintain her lively personality.
Therefore, some things need to be planned in advance.
"I like you, not because you appeared right beside me when I needed you."
"In fact, I had been paying attention to you for a long time. As for your sudden appearance, I can only say that it was fate."
"I like you because you have a strong sense of justice and you use your frail body to stand in front of the weak."
"The one I love is someone who embodies justice, yet possesses an astonishingly beautiful appearance..."
"Yes, I was attracted to you at first sight, I was captivated by you, that's why I like you."
Xu Feng didn't say a word, but Qi Lin's cheeks flushed slightly.
As she finished speaking, Qi Lin couldn't help but roll her eyes.
What a load of rubbish! Men are all such bastards.
If she didn't have such a beautiful appearance, even if I possessed all the things Xu Feng mentioned, this little rascal probably wouldn't even give me a second glance.
However, there are no "what ifs" in this world.
Appearance is innate, so do we really have a natural affinity with him?
"You said you've been paying attention to me for a long time, when was that?"
"Hehe, I've been paying attention for a very long time, but the specifics are a secret buried deep in my heart."
"Tch, still keeping it a secret."
Qi Lin picked up her wine glass and, as if to cover up her actions, gulped down the wine in one go.
Not only that, but I also felt instantly relaxed.
She had already gotten the answer she wanted, as long as Xu Feng's feelings for her weren't just gratitude.
Does it matter how long ago he started paying attention to me?
"Honestly, you can be really shameless sometimes."
"Huh? Where's the shamelessness? Come on, let's have a drink first."
"Gudong, you actually conspired with my parents to trick me! How could you do this?"
"That's because of you. I just turned 18 and I can't wait to possess you."
"Pah, you're a bastard, and a pervert too."
"Oh yeah, yeah, I'm a pervert, I'm a bastard. Come on, cheers for our future."
"Ugh, I feel so dizzy. Tell me, did you do all that on purpose, to make me... well, somewhat unable to live without you?"
After downing glass after glass of red wine, Qilin was starting to ramble incoherently.
