Aine blinked a few times, without much surprise on her face. In her heart, she had already sensed that Deng's feelings for her might be a little strange.

After all, he had kissed her without saying anything before, even though it was on the face.

However, Deng's straightforward statement still made Aine feel a little emotional. Why did Tomorin say this so bluntly? They had been so close before...

Aine spoke up, expressing her inner doubts: "Tomorin, are you... sure? Do you really like me? You're not mistaken about your feelings, are you?"

Seeing Aine pretending to be relaxed, Deng gently held Aine's hand. She shook her head and replied, "I don't know..."

"Ok?"

"Aine-chan, I don't know if I like you, but... I've thought about it for a long, long time..."

As he spoke of this, Deng's mind gradually flashed back to the day when he invited Aine to his home...

What a happy memory.

“I… just want to be with you.” Deng took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and spoke to Aine, “I want to go stargazing with you, go to the aquarium to see penguins, and give you the most beautiful stone I found…”

Now that's right, what tomorin said.

Aine had a rough idea in her mind. Since Tomorin could say this, it proved that she was serious.

“Aine-chan…” Deng raised his head and their eyes met.

The surface of the river was blown into fine ripples, as if some emotion was trembling gently. The breeze, with a slightly cool touch, blew on the faces of the two and penetrated into their clothes.

The breeze ruffled Aine's hair. She tried to lift her head and push it aside, but Deng was faster than her.

Deng raised his other hand and tucked Aine's messy long hair behind her ear, then put his hand on Aine's face.

For a moment, feeling the warmth of Deng's hand, Aine's body froze. This was somewhat inconsistent with the Deng she knew.

In Aine's opinion, Deng is not usually so proactive and bold.

"Tomorin?" Aine asked, looking at Deng in confusion. She didn't know what Deng was going to do next.

"Aine-chan, do you still remember the song 'One Sound, One Night'?"

“Oh, I remember.” Aine nodded. “I heard it in the rehearsal room and at the live performance.”

"This song... is for you..." Deng's eyes were always focused on Aine, "This is what I want to say to you..."

"Eh? Was it written specifically for me?"

Aiyin had vaguely felt it before, but because she had no evidence, she was too embarrassed to say it directly, so she could only tell herself that this was written by Deng to mygo.

"Yes." Deng nodded, openly admitting his feelings, "I wrote it especially for you."

“And what I told you before…” Deng leaned forward, and the look in his eyes made Aine feel a little self-conscious, “If there really was a star in front of me that I could touch…”

"Then that star can only be you."

"tomorin..."

Hearing what Deng said, Aine felt her eyes moist. These words were Tomorin's true feelings for her, her inner cry. To be able to say this, she must have made a great determination and had great courage.

“Originally… Aine-chan, I didn’t want to tell you this.” Deng lowered his head again, his expression visibly downcast. “I’m not sure if I really like you, but I think… I think so.”

"Because today... you suddenly told us that you were going to have surgery early... I was so scared, so..."

Hearing that, Aine fell silent.

tomorin was right. If I suddenly received such a message, I would definitely be shocked.

After a long while, Aine spoke up and asked, "Tomorin... do you really want to be with me?"

"I do." Deng raised her head and her answer was decisive.

"You know, I have ALS... I'm not sure how long I can live, Tomorin, have you really thought it through?"

Aine's tone was very light and gentle, which touched Deng's heart, but made Deng silent for a long time.

The wind blows round after round.

Deng finally nodded. "I've been thinking about this for a long time. Even before I knew about your condition, I was thinking about our relationship... After I learned about your condition, I started to reconsider it. Now, I'm sure I've made up my mind."

"Apple blossoms...basically, they only last about ten days. After they bloom, they wither and fall. Even so, do you like them?"

"Flowers are living things, too. Isn't it important to feel the beauty of their blooming with your heart?"

Deng's decisive answer made Aiyin stunned. She wanted to say something but was interrupted by Deng.

"Aine-chan, I... don't care about what you're worried about. I just know... that being with Aine-chan makes me feel safe and happy, and that's enough."

Aine opened her mouth but didn't utter a single word. After a moment, she closed her mouth with a slight smile on her lips.

She said nothing, yet she said everything.

Deng looked into Aine's gray eyes and gently hugged Aine: "Aine-chan, thank you for accepting me."

“I was also accepted by Tomorin.” Aine smiled, “Please give me more guidance in the future.”

"Well, please give me some advice."

At some point, Aine's long hair had slipped out from behind her ears and was falling quietly on her body. The wind blew again, lifting her long hair and dropping it onto Deng's shoulders.

Deng let go of Aine, but the wind still did not stop. The breathing of the two of them was mixed in the wind. Deng discovered for the first time that the wind in March could also be scorching hot.

Aine raised her right hand and tucked her long, flowing hair back behind her ear. The wind gradually died down.

“Aine-chan…” Deng placed her hands on Aine’s shoulders, and her gaze towards Aine was filled with passion.

Aine didn't say anything, but just looked at the light quietly, responding to her silently.

Seeing this, Deng slowly moved his hands, one hand came to Aine's waist, and the fingers of the other hand gently wrapped around Aine's fingertips, and the warm touch spread along her skin.

Without much hesitation, Deng leaned forward. She could clearly feel that Aine's breathing was trembling slightly.

Looking at Aine's drooping eyelashes, Deng felt that her breath was very close, and he could even smell the scent of matcha hard candy lingering between Aine's lips, which was fresh and soft.

The lamp kissed me.

At first it was just a light touch, as if testing, but when Aine's fingertips unconsciously clenched the corner of her clothes, Deng deepened the kiss.

Aine-chan's lips are softer and warmer than I imagined... and have the delicate scent of matcha.

Deng closed his eyes, and the only sound in his ears was the gentle flow of the river and the intertwining of their breathing.

The wind blew again, and Aine's hair brushed against Deng's cheek, making it itchy.

Chapter 289 A Historic Meeting

Not long after, Deng slowly let go of Aine. She knew very well that Aine's body was no match for hers, and she didn't want Aine to suffer because of her.

However, their breaths still intertwined gently.

Aine's eyelashes trembled slightly, and when she opened her eyes, her vision was still a little hazy, as if she had just woken up from a soft dream.

Her fingertips were still unconsciously clutching the corner of Deng's clothes, her knuckles slightly white, as if if she let go, the moment would slip away with the wind.

Deng lowered her head, looking at Aine's fingers clutching the corner of her clothes, and couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile. Her laughter was so light that it almost melted into the river.

Then, Deng raised her head, and in Aine's hazy eyes, she withdrew her hand from Aine's waist and wiped the moisture from the corner of Aine's mouth.

“Aine-chan’s face… is so red.”

Deng's words gradually brought Aine back to consciousness. She belatedly felt the burning sensation on her cheeks, and even the tips of her ears were burning.

Aine turned her face away and stammered, “Obviously…Tomorin’s face is even redder than mine.”

I don’t know how red my face is, but I don’t care…Tomorin’s face is just redder than mine.

Thinking of this, Aine continued, “I didn’t expect that Tomorin would actually kiss me directly.”

Hearing this, Deng lowered his head again and stammered, "I'm sorry... Aine-chan, I don't know. When I look at Aine-chan, my body can't help but..."

Aine didn't say anything else, just sat there quietly, their fingers still intertwined.

The wind blew again, but Aine didn't feel the coolness.

After sitting there for an unknown amount of time, Aine turned her head and looked towards the light: "Tomorin, let's go?"

Deng tilted his head: "Where are you going?"

"go home."

"Eh?"

Because the two of them had their fingers crossed, Aine was able to easily pull the lamp and follow him away.

The two of them took the train back to Aine's house.

“Aine-chan…is it inappropriate for me to come?”

Hearing Deng's question, Aine was a little confused: "Why do you say that? We are obviously a couple."

"But..." Deng lowered his head, "I always feel a little..."

"It's okay, Tomorin, it's not like you've ever been to my house before." Aine smiled, trying to soothe Deng's emotions, "My parents like you too."

"Is... is that so..." Deng showed a relaxed smile. Uncle and aunt like me too... so that's it.

Ain knocked on the door, and soon the door was opened. However, unlike what Ain expected, the person who opened the door was not her mother, but Xiangzi.

"Sakki?" Aine was stunned. She looked past Xiangzi and saw Mu and Su Shi sitting on the sofa. "Mumu? Soyorin? You are all here..."

"Yes," Xiangzi nodded. "The tour is over, so I came over to have a look..."

As Xiangzi finished speaking, she noticed the light behind Aiyin. Then, her eyes switched back and forth between the two of them. For a moment, she seemed to understand something: "Light?"

"Ah?" Deng raised his head and looked at Xiangzi in panic.

Deng was very clear about the relationship between the three people in the house and Aine. At this moment, her heart was very confused and she didn't know how to face the three of them.

"Xiao Deng is here too?" Su Shi stood up from the sofa, looking past Xiangzi and seeing the two people standing outside the door. She sighed softly, "Xiao Xiang, stop blocking the door. Let Aine-chan and the others come in."

"Oh, sorry."

Hearing Su Shi say this, Xiangzi hurriedly made way and closed the door after the two came in.

Deng's reserved look caught Su Shi's eye. She smiled and called softly, "Xiao Deng?"

"Ah?" Deng shuddered, raised his head, and looked at Su Shi weakly, "What's wrong...Su Shi?"

"Nothing." Su Shi grabbed Deng's hand and pulled her to the sofa, "No need to be so reserved."

"Hmm..." Although Deng nodded in agreement, his body was still tense and he didn't look relaxed at all.

Mu, who was sitting on the side, kept his eyes on Deng: "Deng, what did you and Aine-chan say...?"

"I……"

Deng hesitated, feeling as if ants were crawling on her body.

"Mu, you can tell at a glance, right?" Xiangzi sat aside, covering his mouth with his hands and laughing. "Deng and Xiaoai's faces are so red, what do you think?"

Deng was so flustered when she heard this that she raised her hands and tried to explain, but she couldn't utter a complete sentence: "I... I... Xiaoxiang..."

"Confession?" Mu said it bluntly. She looked at Deng, but Deng didn't seem to want to explain at all. To be exact, Deng didn't know how to explain at this moment.

Seeing this, Mu turned his attention back to Aine.

“Yes.” Aine nodded, “Tomorin confessed to me.”

"As expected." Su Shi nodded and put a grape into her mouth. She glanced at the others, "Four Wings (six) one 彡栮2T氿二y9/*ue-/ are already here."

"I'm sorry...Suyo, I... really like Aine-chan."

Deng Ruoruo sat next to Su Shi, her head lowered, and she looked visibly lost.

Xiao Deng started to feel lost again.

Su Shi sighed, put his hand on Deng's shoulder, and then said comfortingly: "It's okay, Xiao Deng, we don't blame you."

Although Su Shi said this, Deng shook his head: "But... for you guys... am I also competing for Aine-chan..."

"But look, aren't I on good terms with Xiaoxiang and Xiaomu?"

Hearing this, Deng raised her head and met Su Shi's gentle eyes. Then, Deng looked at Xiangzi and Hemu. Seeing that their expressions were still the same as before, her heart gradually relaxed.

"Really……"

"Really." Xiangzi nodded and walked to the lamp. "So don't worry, our relationship is very good."

Soshi agreed, "Sodayo, it won't cause any trouble to us."

"Aine-chan...you're very good, that's why everyone likes you." Mu fixed his eyes on Aine and smiled.
