Why are you always thinking about dating me?

Luo Shuishui couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"If you keep doing that, a boxer will smash your teeth in one punch."

"It's okay, even if my teeth break, it won't stop me from barking."

The two looked at each other, then burst into laughter.

Chapter 87 Meeting

Lin An spent a lazy afternoon at Luo Shuishui's house.

He chatted quietly with Luo Shuishui about some interesting things. Lin An wasn't a cynical person. He thought the world was pretty good. Just as he said, most selfish people don't suffer too much because they only need to take care of themselves and the feelings of a small group of people around them.

They sunbathed like that until three in the afternoon, and Luo Shuishui actually fell asleep on the recliner. Lin An called her name very softly and didn't wake her up. He was a little stunned. This girl, doesn't she have any sense of caution at all?

Although she kept saying how dangerous he was, deep down she seemed to believe he was honest. Lin An felt he couldn't betray her trust. Luo Shuishui's kindness to him was often unconditional. Even though Lin An had made a mistake at the beginning, his love for Luo Shuishui was fake, and he treated her as a target, a tool, Luo Shuishui still generously forgave him.

The afternoon sun shone on her porcelain-white cheeks. Lin An sat on the edge of the recliner, looking at her long, thick eyelashes, the light and shadows intertwined beneath them. She slept so peacefully that Lin An felt somewhat at a loss.

So he waited there silently. Su Yuejin asked him what he was doing and if he wanted to play games, but he politely declined, saying that he had something to do, but he didn't say what it was.

Su Yuejin had no choice but to give up. The clothes she had bought had arrived, and she wanted to wear them to show him.

Tomorrow is October 3rd, and she and Lin An have made plans to go to the comic convention together. However, Lin An has a slight headache because Xu Qinghuan is playing a prank on him and wants him to wear women's clothing.

This is more than just embarrassing; he can't really accept this kind of thing. He doesn't have any strange fetishes. Comic conventions... provide a venue for some cross-dressers, and there are many strange cross-dressers. Lin An just doesn't get it.

He could even imagine the look of delight on Su Yuejin's face when she saw him. Lin An's face was always a little resentful. He waited quietly for Luo Shuishui to wake up. Luo Shuishui slept for two hours. When she groggily opened her eyes, Lin An was still sitting on the recliner sunbathing.

He didn't look at his phone, just sat there quietly. Luo Shuishui looked at his profile and then softly called his name, "Lin An".

"woke up?"

"You're used to taking a nap, are you getting bored while waiting?"

"No, I'm just looking at my phone, I'm quite relaxed."

"Let's go back inside. I'll go see what clothes to wear and where we should eat."

"Let me see, it's a hotel, a private room on the twelfth floor."

"Let me see." Luo Shuishui leaned her head over, glanced at the name of the restaurant, searched for it, and then looked at it again. A strange smile appeared on her lips. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "This guy really knows how to pick a spot."

"Oh? You've been there?"

That restaurant seemed to be a rather high-end Chinese restaurant, so it was quite normal for Luo Shuishui to have been there before. However, Luo Shuishui was silent for a second or two, then placed a hand on his shoulder and said, "You know what I'm going to say, right?"

Lin An was taken aback, then his expression became particularly interesting, "You're not going to tell me... this restaurant is also..."

Luo Shuishui had already nodded.

Lin An was speechless.

This guy always manages to give Lin An some unexpected surprises, or rather, shocks. He's a hidden little rich girl who never shows off, but he's also always too lazy to hide it.

She led Lin An to his room. Next to her room was a room for clothes, with rows and rows of clothes in the wardrobe. Luo Shuishui looked up and asked Lin An softly, "What do you think would be most suitable for me to wear?"

"Actually, as long as it's normal, that's fine. I think you look beautiful in anything."

Luo Shuishui thought for a while, looked through all the wardrobes for a long time, and finally picked out a plain black shirt and a pair of black pencil pants. Then she looked at Lin An and said, "So I'll just wear whatever I want?"

"Um, okay."

"Then I'll go change my clothes, you wait for me here."

"okay."

Lin An waited quietly for Luo Shuishui to come out of the room. Her hair was loose behind her, and two buttons on her black shirt were undone, revealing her delicate collarbone. Her figure was slender, just the right size for an eighteen-year-old girl, her body like a tender willow branch. Standing in front of Lin An, dressed in all black, she made Lin An feel a little dazed.

Because Luo Shuishui usually wears warm-colored clothes, Lin An was a little uncomfortable with this sudden change. Luo Shuishui stood next to Lin An and said, "Let me think, should I put on some makeup or something?"

"You're already very beautiful. This is just icing on the cake. It doesn't matter. It's up to you." These were Lin An's heartfelt words. Luo Shuishui's skin was incredibly beautiful, as tender and white as a freshly peeled lychee.

"Then I won't wear makeup, hmph."

"It's also very good."

With nearly two hours to go before seven o'clock, Luo Shuishui and Lin An sat on the sofa in the living room and watched a horror movie together. Luo Shuishui was a delicate little girl, and she was also afraid, so she chose to sit next to Lin An. When she was nervous, she would grab Lin An's arm and her face would turn pale.

"You can hug me, I'm scared," she suddenly said.

"Oh...oh." Lin An gently put his arm around her shoulder, as if this action would give her a sense of security. Luo Shuishui's fear was relieved a lot, and then what was left was the thrill. People always like to pursue all kinds of thrills in order to temporarily forget their rationality.

The girl's body was delicate and soft, and he simply held her gently without making any inappropriate moves.

Luo Shuishui leaned slightly closer to him, and when she saw something that frightened her, she would cover her eyes with her hands and then peek carefully through her fingers.

"I thought you wouldn't be afraid of these things."

"Please, I'm a girl too, okay?"

"And you, aren't you afraid?" Luo Shuishui asked back.

"Actually, my hands were shaking, but I had to pretend I wasn't scared," Lin An said jokingly. In truth, he was scared, but thinking that there were people who were even more scared than him and needed a little protection, he didn't seem scared at all.

They watched until 6:30, when it was time for them to leave. Luo Shuishui casually put on a pair of black running shoes, carried a small bag, and then put the black hair tie from her wrist onto Lin An's wrist.

"Here you go, take good care of it."

"okay."

Then Luo Shuishui led Lin An to the garage, where several luxury cars were parked. Lin An felt that they looked familiar, as if he had seen many of them when he was researching those luxury cars before.

Okay, in the end she drove an electric car.

Lin An sat in the passenger seat, and Luo Shuishui drove. She unbuckled her seatbelt, and as the car started, Luo Shuishui suddenly said, "Qin Xueming might have seen me before."

"Huh?"

"She had always wanted to do business with my family, but my dad is a hands-off manager, and so is my mom. There are a lot of people managing things at home. In the end, it seems that my sister was bored and went to talk to her. It seems that we have some cooperation with her family."

"That's really amazing."

"There's nothing amazing about it. I'm not the amazing one. I just suddenly thought of it and mentioned it casually. So, let's... go." Luo Shuishui always drove very steadily.

Twenty minutes later, the two arrived at the agreed-upon restaurant. It was 6:50 when they went in. The waiter at the front desk kindly asked if they had made a reservation, and Lin An replied that they did, and that his surname was Qin.

Then the waiter led Lin An and Luo Shuishui upstairs in the elevator. Lin An and Luo Shuishui stopped at the door of a private room. The waiter left, and Lin An stood at the door, seemingly silent for a moment.

The waiter had told me that Qin Xueming was already waiting inside.

He took a deep breath, and Luo Shuishui looked up into his eyes. "Are you nervous?"

"Perhaps a little, after all, it's been a long time since we last met." Lin An replied softly with a wry smile. Luo Shuishui stretched out her two slender, fair arms and placed them on his shoulders.

"And here's me. You wanted me here because you wanted me to give you some psychological support, right? So, don't be afraid, and you're not allowed to be afraid. Remember, for the next two hours, you are my man, Luo Shui Shui's man. My man shouldn't be afraid of anything."

"Shui Shui, it's better if you treat me like a boy." Hearing her gentle voice, Lin An seemed to relax a lot. Luo Shui Shui always had the ability to heal people's hearts, so he gently pushed open the door and went in with Luo Shui Shui.

Qin Xueming's seat was directly opposite the entrance.

Just as Lin An had predicted, she was dressed in an outfit very appropriate for her age: a white short-sleeved dress that clung tightly to the slender curves of her body. Her figure was tall and delicate. Her hair was tied in a ponytail, and her dark eyes seemed to gleam.

Two years have passed.

She appeared much more mature than when she was younger, but she was only nineteen years old. Lin Anzai looked closely into her eyes and saw that the naivety she once had seemed to have vanished. What remained was clean and sharp, giving people a sense of psychological pressure.

Qin Xueming has grown up.

"Long time no see," she said softly.

"Yeah, it's been a long time... Sister Xue." Lin An smiled at her.

At this moment, Lin An suddenly saw things clearly again. There was nothing to be conflicted about. Being conflicted was not like him. He was not so obscure and unbearable. If he saw his ex, he would just be his ex. What was wrong with being honest?

Luo Shuishui followed Lin An in. There were only three seats at the small round table. Luo Shuishui sat down next to Lin An, and then she extended her hand to Qin Xueming in a generous manner, "Hello, Qin Xueming."

"Hello." Qin Xueming's voice was clear and pure.

"My name is Luo Shuishui." Luo Shuishui is always like this, gentle and kind to everyone.

"Hmm." Qin Xueming's expression suddenly froze for a moment.

She stared blankly at Luo Shuishui, then turned to look at Lin An, her brows furrowing slightly. But after her lips parted for a second or two, she ultimately said nothing.

Luo Shuishui... Luo Shuishui, Qin Xueming seemed to have heard this name in her memory, but she couldn't remember it for a moment. Who was she?

"Shall I serve the food?" Qin Xueming said, leaning forward slightly and placing her hands on the table.

"Okay, sure." Lin An nodded.

Chapter 88 No Going Back, No More Goodbye

How have you been lately?

It seems like familiar old friends always start their greetings like this, except this time, it was Lin An who said it.

Qin Xueming was a little surprised, but she still answered softly, "After junior high school, I haven't had a good time. I've just drifted through two years, but I'm doing pretty well now."

She could look directly into Lin An's eyes, and so could Lin An; he didn't flinch at all. He heard Qin Xueming ask, "And you?"

"Me? I'm alright. I've had a pretty happy couple of years, though the days just passed by in a blur." Lin An smiled, and the simple greeting was over. Qin Xueming glanced at the lamplight above her head and then turned her gaze to Luo Shuishui.

"I feel like I've heard your name somewhere before, Shui Shui."

Qin Xueming's voice was very gentle, as gentle as an autumn evening breeze. It was a simple, casual conversation. Luo Shuishui didn't feel any pressure from her, because she was Luo Shuishui. From childhood to adulthood, she had always gotten what she wanted and never needed to fear anyone.

"Maybe it's because of my sister."

"Your sister?" Qin Xueming began searching her memory for a girl with the surname Luo, then she asked softly, "Luo Baiwei?"

"Yes, yes, she is my older sister." Luo Shuishui nodded gently.

Qin Xueming's expression froze for a moment, as if she had heard something particularly surprising. She turned her gaze to Lin An again, and seeing Lin An's calm, confused, and clueless expression, she suddenly found herself speechless.

“Lin An…”

"what?"

"You're really lucky," she murmured, the things she had originally planned to do vanished without a trace in that instant.

"To be precise, I'm the lucky one. I met someone I truly love and decided to spend my life with them. Just being able to experience this is lucky in itself." Luo Shuishui's smile was sweet. Qin Xueming glanced at her and finally nodded gently.

The smile on her lips took on a bittersweet tinge.
