After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 52 - What’s Going On Now?
Chapter 52: Chapter 52 What’s Going On Now?
He wanted… to get closer once more.
Song Sinian’s nose gently brushed her small face, and his lips slowly moved downward…
“Mr. Song.”
A delicate and soft voice suddenly sounded inside the car, instantly making Song Sinian’s movements halt.
His dark eyes sank slightly as he remembered that Lu Zhaozhao had mentioned they could only be intimate when the two of them were alone.
So had he just crossed a line?
Was she… unhappy?
Song Sinian looked at Lu Zhaozhao and hesitated only for two seconds before he decisively reached for her small hand and rested his chin on it.
Lu Zhaozhao: “…”
She watched his actions, dumbfounded, and then heard Song Sinian ask very seriously, “Is it the hand that’s wrong?”
After that, he took her other hand and did the same.
Lu Zhaozhao’s heart was already on the verge of dropping to her knees and furiously beating the wall. Oh dear God… who could withstand this?
She pinched Song Sinian’s handsome face with her small hands, then cheerily said, “I’m not angry anymore, I have something to tell you… about my identity.”
When she said “identity,” she clearly forced a bitter smile.
But she quickly bounced back.
When Song Sinian heard that Lu Zhaozhao was not angry anymore, his mood steadied quite a bit, “Does it have to do with the man just now?”
Recently, there had been quite a few men around Lu Zhaozhao, all connected to the Xia Family. He had also sent Zhao Xi to investigate the Xia Family’s circumstances; the information hadn’t been received yet, so he knew very little about the Xia Family.
Lu Zhaozhao nodded, her little hands nervously twining together, “That person just now was Lao Si from the Xia Family, Xia Wenyan. He just came to see me, wanting me to give up on our marriage contract.”
“…”
Song Sinian’s expression visibly darkened.
He had already lost a lot of time with Lu Zhaozhao because of her so-called biological parents, and now someone was asking Lu Zhaozhao to leave him?
Would there still be time to flatten their entire family and throw them out of the country?
While Song Sinian was contemplating how to deal with this “major crisis,” Lu Zhaozhao spoke again.
“This marriage contract was originally between the Song Family and the Lu Family, and I am no longer a daughter of the Lu Family…”
Song Sinian grasped Lu Zhaozhao’s small hand with urgency, staring at her intently, and said word by word, “The one I’ve always wanted to marry has only been you.”
It had nothing to do with the marriage contract.
He had spent so much time finding her again, he would not simply hand her over to someone else!
It was the first time Lu Zhaozhao had heard Song Sinian say such words to her, diminishing almost all the anxiety in her heart.
Her eyes curved, her brows and eyes filled with warmth, “I didn’t expect our Mr. Song to have such a sweet mouth~”
Lu Zhaozhao deliberately drew out her tone, tilting her head cutely to look at him.
Just as she was feeling smug, she was suddenly pulled over by Song Sinian, who grasped the back of her neck.
And then his lips pressed against hers.
Zhao Xi’s hand trembled and hit the volume control, filling the car with the melodious English song in an instant.
Startled, Zhao Xi shivered and quickly tried to press back.
The boss and the lady boss getting cozy and here he was, unwittingly adding background music?
But clearly, Song Sinian’s attention was not on the music inside the car at all, his heart and eyes were filled with Lu Zhaozhao.
Song Sinian slowly released Lu Zhaozhao and, seeing her dazed look as a result of his actions, his mood instantly improved a great deal.
Lu Zhaozhao touched her lips in disbelief, “Mr. Song, did you just…”
Song Sinian raised his hand and gently rubbed the smeared lipstick at the corner of her mouth, explaining in a methodical manner, “I was just tasting the flavor.”
…
His expression was so serious that if she hadn’t been the one he kissed, she’d doubt whether the initiator was Song Sinian at all.
It was over, she might have led their family’s Mr. Song astray!
If he kept flirting like this, her heart was bound to need bypass surgery sooner or later…
The afternoon autumn sun was still scorching hot.
Xia Wenyan, after having an unpleasant interaction with Lu Zhaozhao, was feeling utterly deflated.
He returned to the Xia Family home irritated, yanking off his mask and hat and tossing them aside.
Xia Wenqing, who was sitting in the living room dealing with documents, glanced at him and asked casually, “Causing trouble outside again?”
Before, Xia Wenyan had said he’d be busy these few days, attending training and competitions; Wenqing didn’t expect him to be back home so soon.
Xia Wenyan frowned in annoyance, “Me, causing trouble? The entertainment companies are undergoing self-inspections these days, so they gave us a break.”
Xia Wenqing, holding the document in his hands, seemed to suddenly remember something, “The place they’re inspecting this time isn’t where your competition is being held, is it?”
He had heard that someone anonymously reported drug use at a gathering, which led many entertainment companies to scramble into action.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
Besides frantically denying the allegations, the companies started internal inspections of their own artists, fearing getting entangled in this scandal.
Xia Wenyan shrugged noncommittally.
Xia Wenqing looked at him suspiciously, eyes measuring him up and down.
If it had been any other time, Xia Wenyan would’ve been hopping mad about having to return home, seeing as singing and dancing were his life.
What about now? Suddenly lost his drive for life?
Wenqing’s eyes drooped slightly, and upon seeing Xia Wenyan’s conflicted expression, his lips curved into a slight smirk, and he decided to stay quiet.
Lao Si was the most restless by nature. The more Wenqing would press him for answers, the less likely he was to tell the truth.
So by maintaining silence, he’d make himself open up first.
And as expected, the living room remained quiet for no more than five seconds before Xia Wenyan sighed deeply.
“Big Bro, do you think Lu Zhaozhao’s brain isn’t quite right?” Xia Wenyan mentioned Lu Zhaozhao and couldn’t help but start fuming, “I was obviously trying to look out for her, and she ended up getting angry at me!”
Hearing the name “Lu Zhaozhao”, Xia Wenqing’s brows slightly furrowed, and his eyes sharply fixed on Xia Wenyan.
“Did you go to see Zhaozhao today?”
Xia Wenyan nodded, “Yes, I just wanted to tell her not to marry someone out of spite, and she snapped at me!”
Wenyan then recounted the entire incident with Lu Zhaozhao at school to Xia Wenqing.
“Big Bro, don’t you think she went too far?!” After finishing his story, Xia Wenyan didn’t forget to seek solidarity from Xia Wenqing.
By this point, Xia Wenqing’s face had already darkened significantly because of what Wenyan had just said.
He turned and called out towards the corridor, “Kaka! Come here!”
Soon after, a mynah dog bounded over from the end of the corridor, the black bandana tied around its neck standing out sharply.
Xia Wenyan immediately recognized it as the one Lu Zhaozhao had intended to give to him.
He frowned in dissatisfaction and muttered, “Big Bro, I’m talking to you about Zhaozhao and me; why did you call Kaka over?”
Xia Wenqing glanced at Xia Wenyan with disdain, picking up Kaka, “Isn’t my attitude obvious enough?”
