To Love You Again

Chapter 262 - The Greatest Gift

On matters like this, she was used to being the active party.

Thus, she stared bravely at him head on and said in determined voice.

"You will be my first, and I will get your first. Remember that." After she said this, she turned around to hide her red face. She felt that her head was about to let out steam from embarrassment.

Linfeng's laugh stopped. Eh? What did she say again?

'You will be my first and I will get your first?'

His Young Miss was always direct. There was even a time when she said to him directly, 'I can't get enough of you', which really shocked him to the core.

So, this 'first' she was talking about could only be...

Linfeng instantly turned red. His cheeks were burning.

How could his innocent Young Miss say those things? Who influenced her? Did she read it off a novel?

...But was it not usually the man's line?

"..."

His thoughts ran wildly. He shook his head to clear up his mind, but her words echoed in his mind. His gaze grew hotter as he looked at her slender back.

'Young Miss wants me to be her first...'

Then he turned red again.

Argh! How could they continue conversing like this?!

He began to recite scriptures in his mind to calm himself. Amitabha.

There was an awkward silence as the two young people hidden in the corner tried to calm their pounding hearts with Buddhist scriptures, although they were not Buddhist believers. The scriptures were truly effective in calming the mind.

"Ahem. Young Miss... No. Zhi'er," Linfeng softly called after a while.

Xiong Zhi calmly turned around to face him. The blushing face was gone.

Linfeng felt a hint of regret. Ah. How he wished he could see it more.

'You'll be my first...'

Amitabha.

Linfeng struggled to calm his mind that started to run wild again. He raised his hand that was holding the necklace.

"How did you recharge it?" Xiong Zhi asked preemptively in curiosity.

He looked into her eyes as he answered. "Like this."

Then, he slowly kissed the crescent moon necklace. His deep eyes never left her.

Xiong Zhi sucked in her breath. Blood rushed to her cheeks once more.

She felt like... It was her being kissed instead of the necklace.

With his lips pressed against the necklace, Linfeng suddenly recited an ancient poem in Old English.

"May thee giveth strength to mine own young misseth,

"May thee provideth warmth in lonely nights,

"May thee standeth as me and guideth h'r at each moment,

"F'r yond is thy mission until I cometh again."

Xiong Zhi's heart skipped a beat, as she digested those words.

Linfeng then took the initiative this time to step closer to her. His scent once again assaulted her nose, making her breath hitch. He gently held her shoulder and turned her around, sweeping her neck to one shoulder.

From behind her, his arms appeared on both sides, as if embracing her.

He gently put the necklace on her. His warm breath on her nape sent shivers down her spine.

His presence overwhelmed her.

Linfeng took a step back, gently turned her around again, and smiled lovingly at her.

"It should work, until I recharge it again the next time we meet," Linfeng playfully said.

Xiong Zhi held the necklace like it was the most precious thing on earth. It felt scalding hot in her palm.

Linfeng's kiss... She was holding Linfeng's kiss!

Linfeng chuckled, seeing that Xiong Zhi seemed to be in daze. He was actually embarrassed of saying the poem out of the blue. It was too cheesy, but he really could not help it.

But he was not yet done.

He took a music recorder from his pocket.

He gently took her hand and placed the object onto her palm. He did not let go and enveloped her hand in his.

It would be a long time before he could hold her hands again.

"You can play this when you miss me..." Linfeng felt embarrassed as he said this, so he quickly added.

"Actually, the pieces I played are all for soothing the mind and calming the heart. It is better if you play it in a loop until you fall asleep. It is much better than that music lamp," Linfeng said with hidden intent.

Xiong Zhi's eyes lit up. The stars in her eyes shone more brightly.

She got Linfeng's kiss, Linfeng's poem, and now, Linfeng's serenade.

Xiong Zhi, who had watched countless romantic movies courtesy of Xuantin, was so happy that she finally experienced this 'courtship' that she missed in the past life.

In the past...

Xiong Zhi tried to recall, but those sad memories was unable to resurface at this moment, as all her mind was capable of thinking right now was him giving her so much love and care, despite the dire situation he was in.

Xiong Zhi felt really loved.

She could not speak because she was afraid she would tear up.

Linfeng got worried that he said too much, because he did not hear Xiong Zhi's reply.

"In fact, you did not have to play it every night. If you just have a chance and listen to—"

"No. I like it. I like it very much." Xiong Zhi answered her with a big smile on her face. The happiness and relief in her watery eyes were all visibly shown. The pear vortices on her cheeks appeared as she smiled happily.

She looked too far from the cool and wise Young Miss of the dignified Xiong family. Right now, she was just a blooming young girl who had received a very precious gift from her first love.

Indeed. Xiong Zhi had received the gifts she always craved for since her previous life.

Sweet moments like these with Linfeng.

Being spoiled by him all over again.

Experiencing the entire process of falling in love.

In this second chance, it was a few of the most precious gifts she ever received.
