To Love You Again

The beautiful island was surrounded by a sparkling ocean.

The sound of waves greeted Xiong Zhi the moment she get out of the car. Her heart palpitated with excitement.

How long has it been since she visited the ocean with Linfeng?

She looked up at the clear sky. The sun was on its peak, illuminating the bright atmosphere.

Today's weather was perfect too.

While Linfeng took their baggage into the villa, Xiong Zhi walked towards the beach. She took off her sandals and let her bare feet feel the rough warm white sand.

She closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. The salty smell of the ocean and the refreshing waves, it really calms the mind.

A pair of hands embrace her from the back.

"Can't wait any longer?" Linfeng kissed Xiong Zhi's earlobe.

Xiong Zhi leaned on him as her eyes stared at the sparkling sea.

"It's been so long. I missed the ocean."

"It's the ocean you missed, not me?" Linfeng was pouting, acting pitiful.

Xiong Zhi turned around and comforted the fake wounded man. Whenever they were alone, Linfeng would like to act pitifully as if she wronged him, just to get a kiss from her.

And Xiong Zhi would always go along with him.

She cupped his face and kissed him loudly on the lips. "Of course, I miss you too."

"More than the ocean?"

Xiong Zhi pretended to think about it. "Hmm...A little bit."

"Hey!" Linfeng tickled her sides. He can't believe his young miss could joke prioritizing others more than him. It happened more frequently nowadays. "You learn how to be naughty now? Who taught you? Xinyang?

Or Song Xuantin?"

Xiong Zhi struggled out of his arms. She was trying not to laugh because of Linfeng's tickles. "No one. Just me."

Linfeng embraced her knees and carried her to the villa. "Then, I'll show you who is better."

Xiong Zhi laughed. They have just arrived and the sun was still brightly lit. What this man was thinking?

"I think we should eat first..." She said in a soft voice.

Linfeng's steps halted. He felt conflicted before putting Xiong Zhi down and prepared food for the both of them.

They arrived on the island after lunch. Although they have eaten on the plane, it's only a light meal. Now that both of them were relaxed, their hunger was apparent.

It's been a long time since Linfeng cooked for Xiong Zhi, so after the helper stuffed his fridge with fresh ingredients and meat, Linfeng started showing off his specialties.

Xiong Zhi was not idle too. It was rare to see her Linfeng cook for her nowadays, affected by the sweet and warm atmosphere, she proceeded to help him.

Although she had made more trouble than helping him, Linfeng did not mind it. He was smiling and teasing her every time she made mistakes. In the end, Xiong Zhi took note that she would memorize all the kitchen tools and attend some of the cooking classes to not embarrass herself next time. She too wanted to cook beside Linfeng.

In an hour, the food was prepared. It was simple with only a few dishes. But all of it was the two's favorites. They ate with satisfaction and the warmth of the food reached their hearts. With their relished expression, it seemed like the meal was better than the five-star restaurant.

After the meal, the two also do their dishes. Doing simple chores together, they felt like they were husband and wife. The atmosphere was so sweet that one could taste its sweetness around them.

The two take a stroll together on the shore, holding their hands, to digest their food.

Before leaving, Linfeng glanced at his helper at the door. The helper nodded in understanding.

This helper was not an ordinary person. He was actually a professional who was the best at arranging proposal venues. He and Linfeng had already made a plan two months ago.

The plan was simple. While Linfeng distracts Xiong Zhi on the island with the booths they had prepared in advance, he would transformed the path to the villa and the whole villa for the two love birds.

Facing the beautiful sunset across the ocean, among the flowery beds and candles, Linfeng would take out the ring and propose to Xiong Zhi.

It was a flawless plan that every little detail has meaning and was perfected.

...

Linfeng held Xiong Zhi's dainty hand. The sun was still high but the refreshing breeze dispel the heat. Linfeng arranged Xiong Zhi's hat which was a bit crooked.

"I heard the stalls around here are famous. Do you want to take a look?"

Xiong Zhi's eyes lit up with curiosity. "Let's see."

Although the two walked around for some time, Xiong Zhi haven't seen any tourists like them. She first wondered if the whole island was rented by Linfeng, but she dispel this ridiculous thought after she heard that they were stalls operating.

When they arrived at the first small shop, she was stunned. It was actually a shooting booth that was commonly seen in the amusement park. When she glanced at the toys displayed, she stopped.

Linfeng looked at her. "Do you want to play?"

"Ah? No...." Xiong Zhi shook her head. She just felt that those two toys on display very much looked like the elephant and rabbit she got from her first date with Linfeng.

Those two toys were still kept well in her bedroom even though many years had passed. It was Linfeng's first gift so, of course, she treasured them very well. She also got those toys from this kind of booth. Thinking about how young they were at the time and how Linfeng's shooting ability made the shop owner drop his mouth, she laughed.

"What are you thinking?" Linfeng asked with a smile.

"I just remembered how stubborn you are when we are young."

"Stubborn? Hmm...Do you mean when you are trying to seduce me and I keep avoiding you?"

Xiong Zhi was slightly stunned. "You knew?"

She tried many times to make the young him like her soon as possible, but the man ignored her advances. She even tricked him into a group date so that she could make memories with him alone.

"Of course. You keep saying how good-looking I am and stared at me the whole day. You are practically burning a hole on my face that time." Linfeng laughed remembering how her stone-faced young miss would spout words that could make one blush.

He was put in a dilemma countless times because of her confusing words and actions.

Xiong Zhi was embarrassed. "Well, I just miss you at that time. Seeing you felt like a dream."

Linfeng understood the underlying meaning of her words. His heart ached again. He squeezed her hand and kissed her cheek. "Well, now you can stare at me as much as you like. And can you do naughty things freely-" Xiong Zhi immediately cover his mouth.

Xiong Zhi had a hint of blush. They already arrived at the second booth. And there were people there. They might hear Linfeng's perverted words!

Linfeng chuckled and licked Xiong Zhi's hands which owed a glare from her.

It was a bowling booth.

The three men playing noticed them. The tall man looked a bit familiar and waved at them. "Hey, angel."

Xiong Zhi: "???" Does he know her?

Linfeng glared threateningly at the man while the other just laughed it off and resumed playing.

Xiong Zhi was amused. Her Linfeng looked like a cute puppy around her but when faced with others he act like someone stepped on his tail and bare his fangs.

Linfeng muttered incoherently, "If you aren't there that time I would not consider inviting you..."

"What are you muttering about?" Xiong Zhi asked with a light smile.

Seeing Xiong Zhi's smile, Linfeng was immediately healed.

"I am just saying that he is so foolish to flirt with a girl when her boyfriend is around. He must have been hit and become foolish when he was young." His tone was full of sarcasm.

Xiong Zhi blinked. Now she realized why that man looked familiar.

"Isn't he the boy I hit with the bowling ball before?"

Linfeng's annoyed face instantly blossomed with a smile. "You still remember that? You really hit him hard. See, he did become a fool."

"But I did not hit him in the head, I hit him in the abdomen."

Linfeng: "...."
