Chapter 409: Chapter 329 Shen Qingning Has Guests in the Living Room

“I can’t hold it anymore, I can’t hold it!”

Lin Lu felt she was about to burst.

But kissing is really magical, isn’t it?

She couldn’t help but want it to last a little longer, then even longer.

She had always been a person with poor self-control, which was the case with drinking bubble tea as well; when she could not resist the urge to drink it, she would deceive herself: sincerity leads to zero… calories!

When she was kissing just now, she felt as if her whole being was floating.

That’s what happens when a novice kisser meets a skilled one.

Not to mention, the tugging before the actual kiss had already blown her mind.

The real battle is on a spiritual level.

As a result, she almost paid the “price of greed.”

There’s typically a public restroom in parks, and Lin Lu made it to the bathroom by sheer willpower.

The path wasn’t long, but it felt like an arduous journey to the West.

She shouldn’t have overestimated herself, really shouldn’t have.

If she had known she could kiss in the park, she wouldn’t have avoided the restroom at the cinema just to hold hands for a bit longer!

That was a miscalculation, a miscalculation.

And yet, this troublemaker beside her was laughing non-stop, asking, “Can’t you walk properly? Do you want me to carry you and run?”

Cheng Zhu even made a gesture as if he was going to hoist a cannon.

Honestly, he was not joking; with Lin Lu’s petite frame, he could indeed pick her up and run.

Completely focused on holding back her urge to pee, Lin Lu didn’t have the strength to hit him. Who would want to be carried that way? It would be so embarrassing!

Of course, this made Cheng Zhu realize why, after just a kiss, her face could blush as if there were afterglow reverberating through her body.

Urgent human needs indeed.

Above all, Lin Lu felt incredibly ashamed.

She had just lost her first kiss like that, feeling like dying of embarrassment despite the excitement and thrill.

I kissed Cheng Zhu!

And kissing turned out to be so different from what she had initially imagined.

But what on earth was “kissing and peeing”?

No, absolutely not.

How could she live with herself?

This could only mean girls are thin-skinned and inexperienced.

Unlike some out there who, despite feeling nothing while lying there, would pretend to their men that they needed to pee, blaming them, then satisfying those men’s useless vanity.

Once at the public restroom, Lin Lu quickly went inside, while Cheng Zhu stood guard outside the door.

He faced away from the door, keeping an eye on the surroundings.

He was a detail-oriented person, indeed manipulative at times, but in some moments, those details gave women a tremendous sense of security.

At this moment, Cheng Zhu reminisced about Lin Lu’s awkward expression and body language when she pushed him away after kissing, and her last words made him think that not many men could endure this.

Had he not known that Lin Lu was telling the truth and not flirting, he might have kissed her again there and then.

Inside the restroom, Lin Lu was staring at her white panties a bit dazed, puzzled.

“How, how could this happen!” she exclaimed.

After her shock, she silently placed a piece of tissue paper on them.

Kissing him was magical.

And kissing him was terrifying!

…

…

Public restrooms in ’14 certainly wouldn’t have hot water available.

Washing her hands at the sink, Lin Lu felt the cold water chilling to the bone.

Her hands, which had been warmed by Cheng Zhu, were now icy cold again.

“But it doesn’t matter, I have my portable furnace, I have my winter-exclusive hand warmer!” Lin Lu thought to herself.

After taking a tissue from her bag to dry her hands, she was about to repeat her previous action when Cheng Zhu took her hand.

“Enough, don’t raise your hands anymore, you always look like a little zombie whenever you do that,” Cheng Zhu said.

Of course, he must have found it quite cute in his heart.

But this person was too difficult to handle. He needed to put some limits on her so she wouldn’t do whatever she wanted just because she was cute!

And as for Lin Lu’s smugness…

Deadly was the fact that when she heard Cheng Zhu mention “little zombie,” she really did raise her other arm and hopped forward twice.

A smile broke across the lively Little Lu’s face as she hopped and laughed, while Cheng Zhu only had one thought in his mind: “Bounce, bounce.”

If zombies were really like this, who wouldn’t be enthralled?

“Shall we head back?” Cheng Zhu looked in the direction they came from.

“Sure,” Lin Lu agreed.

They had been out for quite a while, and it would take a good twenty minutes to walk back from there.

“Cheng Zhu, it seems like the snow is getting heavier,” Lin Lu said, looking up at the night sky.

“Yeah, there might really be some accumulation tomorrow,” Cheng Zhu replied, glancing up as well.

That’s good; the school would definitely be lively tomorrow.

He could foresee hordes of teenagers playing with snow on the roads like wild dogs.

And all sorts of uniquely ugly snowmen would be piled up in the most random of places.

In fact, he had just seen from his dormitory group chat that Dong Dong had hung an umbrella outside the balcony to catch snowflakes.

He specially took a photo and sent it to Brother Zhu, saying it was their ammunition depot for tomorrow, and to see if any other dorm dared to accept the challenge from the four male gods of Dorm 309!

Little did they know that to others, Dorm 309 was seen as: Male god and those three guys.

“Maybe we can have a snowball fight tomorrow, and build a snowman. I want to make an ugly one and write your name on it,” Little Lu said.

“As if, you’ll freeze to death!”

“Cheng Zhu, this is the most unusual birthday I’ve ever had, I didn’t expect it to snow this much,” Lin Lu suddenly uttered.

The emphasis of her words was naturally on the first part; the snow mentioned in the second part just added to the effect.

Cheng Zhu smiled without saying anything, and they continued walking hand in hand through Hang City’s streets, not hurrying, taking a while to return to the car.

It was now past eleven in the evening.

After getting into the driver’s seat, Cheng Zhu glanced at the navigation. It would take about twenty minutes to drive to the KTV.

But according to his original plan, he wanted to stay with Lin Lu until the early morning.

All the way there, Lin Lu was chattering constantly. Sometimes when her favorite songs played, she would hum along, clearly in a great mood.

Arriving at the KTV, she insisted on staying in the car for a bit longer, claiming she loved the song playing and wanted to finish listening before starting the car.

Before getting out of the car, Lin Lu asked, “Cheng Zhu, you’re going back to Xinhang Apartment, right?”

“Yes, why? Want to come over for a while?” he asked.

“No way!” Lin Lu decisively refused. She didn’t dare.

Kissing was so magical, and she indeed wanted to kiss again, but she didn’t dare to do it at Cheng Zhu’s apartment.

Dangerous, dangerous, dangerous!

She still wanted to go home and further investigate the issue with her white panties.

“Okay then, you drive ahead, and I’ll follow behind,” Cheng Zhu suggested.

“Sure!”

Since they were both headed to the same place, they drove one after the other. She found it a bit sweet.

Now and then, through the mirror, she’d glance at the Land Rover following her and thought the sweet songs playing seemed even more delightful than usual.

However, near the last traffic light before Xinhang Apartment, Cheng Zhu got stuck at a red.

This led Lin Lu to drive into Xinhang Apartment first and park her car.

She didn’t hurry down but waited there for Cheng Zhu.

Next to Lin Lu’s car was an empty parking space, and she silently wished, “Will Cheng Zhu purposely park next to me?”

There were also quite a few empty spaces near the entrance of Building B, which was farther from Cheng Zhu’s place.

They say a girl’s romantic thoughts are like poetry; sometimes, girls just have these quaint, whimsical ideas.

Just like during school days when handing in homework, if two notebooks coincidentally ended up on top of each other, ripples would rise in their hearts.

In the end, Cheng Zhu did drive over and began reversing into the space in front of her car.

Lin Lu, very pleased, got out of the car first and watched Cheng Zhu reversing.

Once he parked, she quickly jog-trotted to his car and gently knocked on the window.

Cheng Zhu, a bit puzzled, rolled down the window, only to see Lin Lu reach forward from the opening, stand on tiptoes, stretch her little head inside, and quickly peck Cheng Zhu on the face.

“Last minute of my birthday! Just getting a bit more advantage!” Little Lu said.

Her little face was bright red, and those eyes sparkled as always.

Before Cheng Zhu could react, she was already off and running.

Wearing thick black tights and little leather shoes, Lin Lu’s steps tapped on the ground as she ran towards Xinhang Apartment’s Building A.

Her black coat and scarf lifted slightly mid-air as she ran.

Standing in front of the brightly lit glass doors, she swiped her key fob, and the glass doors slowly opened.

As the doors opened halfway, the voiceover actress suddenly turned around, waved smilingly at Cheng Zhu sitting in the car, and bid farewell:

“Cheng Zhu! Bye-LA~”

…

…

Inside the car, Cheng Zhu sat there, watching Lin Lu’s figure disappear from sight.

He had just rolled down the window, thinking she wanted to say a few words, and then, he was ambushed!

Just like that, she kissed him!

Not reasonable at all, very unreasonable!

Cheng Zhu helplessly smiled, then gathered his things inside the car and got out.

He looked up towards where Lin Lu and Shen Qingning shared their apartment, which was still lit.

Cheng Zhu’s gaze intensified for a moment, then he tucked his hands into his pockets and headed toward his Building B.

In reality, as soon as the overjoyed Lin Lu entered the door, she saw Shen Qingning sitting on the sofa holding a tear-jerking romance novel.

She took off her shoes by the shoe cabinet, then pulled out the two hand warmers tucked under her shoe soles and tossed them into the trash.

After that, she flopped down on the sofa.

“Yah! Ning Bao! Were you waiting for me to come home?” the girl happily said.
