Chapter 117: The Second Heartfelt Confession

Lin Beixiu planned to make her some warm milk, but Qin Muxue stopped him.

“Don’t bother, let me do it. You go take a shower first this time.”

“Ah, really?”

“Hurry up, I’m fine. Leave it to me.”

Qin Muxue knew he was doing it for her, her tone gentle yet unquestionable. Lin Beixiu had no choice but to take his clothes and go shower.

Once he went in, Qin Muxue prepared the milk and heated it up.

Satisfied, Qin Muxue sat on the sofa, waiting. She then took out her phone, thought for a moment, and changed Lin Beixiu’s contact name to “Little Husband.”

It used to be “Little Brother Beixiu,” then changed to “Brother Beixiu.” Since their relationship was confirmed, she decided to go straight to “Husband.” Qin Muxue was already thinking ahead to their future marriage.

Looking at her contact name, Qin Muxue couldn’t help but feel sweet inside.

“Ah, Mantou, look at this. Beixiu confessed to me.”

“Do you know? He confessed to me.”

Mantou: ……

Yawning, Mantou meowed casually, then jumped off the sofa and sat by the bathroom door.

Qin Muxue was annoyed, “Mantou, you don’t stand a chance.”

Not long after, Lin Beixiu came out.

Guys sure shower quickly.

He saw Mantou sitting by the door, so he squatted down and petted Mantou.

Qin Muxue greeted him with a smile, pulling him eagerly to the living room. “Beixiu, the milk is ready.”

“Thank you. You should go shower too.”

Qin Muxue playfully said, “Remember to blow-dry my hair.”

She then went to the bedroom to find her clothes, while Lin Beixiu sat in the living room, picked up his cup of warm milk, and started drinking.

Rich and creamy, full of milk flavor.

It was delicious.

Of course, warm milk was just warm milk, what other taste could it have?

Lin Beixiu glanced at Mantou, who had followed him, and petted the cat.

Soon, Qin Muxue finished showering and came out. She saw Lin Beixiu playing with the cat on the sofa, frowned, walked over, casually tossed the cat aside, and sat next to him.

“Beixiu, I’m here. Hurry up and blow-dry my hair.”

It had been a while since he last helped her blow-dry her hair. Lin Beixiu smiled, stood up, grabbed the hairdryer, and started blow-drying.

It was the familiar routine, the familiar feeling.

But…

Qin Muxue was no longer as docile as before; she started to fidget.

“Don’t, it tickles.”

Lin Beixiu swatted away her mischievous hand, “Older sister, be gentle.”

Qin Muxue pouted, “You’re my boyfriend now, what’s wrong with me touching you?”

“Wow, you just confessed, and you’re already getting handsy. You’re something else, Laoliu.” Lin Beixiu was speechless.

As a straight guy who had never been in a relationship, he didn’t understand.

When they lived together before, Lin Beixiu had always respected boundaries, except for sleeping together, he never crossed the line. He wouldn’t do anything more.

“Don’t call me older sister. I’m your girlfriend now. Can you give me a special nickname?”

Qin Muxue looked displeased.

After some thought, Lin Beixiu suggested, “Little Xue?”

“No, that’s what my mom calls me too.”

Putting down the hairdryer, Lin Beixiu sat next to her, teasingly said, “Then how about little sister? Hehe…ouch.”

Qin Muxue pinched his waist, annoyed, “Lin Beixiu, you’re so annoying.”

Seeing her upset, Lin Beixiu held her hand. Qin Muxue didn’t resist, but her expression clearly showed…

I’m upset, and you better make it right.

“Mumu?”

Qin Muxue turned her head, blinked, and her smile indicated that she had been appeased.

Qin Muxue affectionately rubbed his arm, feeling happy, “Say it again.”

“Mumu.”

“Mm~”

Qin Muxue sat on Lin Beixiu’s lap, startling him, and he dared not move.

“You…”

Qin Muxue hugged his neck like a little fairy.

“Beixiu, carry me to the room.”

Suppressing his restless heart, Lin Beixiu picked her up and walked to the bedroom, hesitated for a moment, then lay down on the edge of the bed.

This was their first time sleeping together after breaking the ice, and Lin Beixiu felt different.

“Beixiu, it’s time to confess.”

Lin Beixiu turned around to see Qin Muxue looking at him expectantly.

Lin Beixiu blushed again. Although he had thought of countless sweet words on his way back, when it came to actually saying them, his mind went blank, and he couldn’t remember anything.

After a while, Lin Beixiu finally said, “Mumu, I like you. I can’t explain when I started liking you. Maybe your determined personality rubbed off on me, or maybe it was the accelerated heartbeat every time we slept together, or the way you cried in my arms that made me ache. Your every move touches my heart, and I just knew I felt differently about you.”

“Hearts don’t lie, so, I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?”

They say no guy can resist a girl crying in his arms, and Lin Beixiu was no exception. He felt sorry for her.

Compared to other sweet words, Lin Beixiu preferred to express his true feelings.

Sincerity was more important than any flowery language.

Listening, Qin Muxue’s eyes welled up with tears. After all this time, wasn’t it all for this moment?

“Yes, I agree.”

The more Lin Beixiu spoke, the redder his face became. His heart thumped, and after finishing, he just looked at her, a faint smile on his lips.

Qin Muxue leaned in for a hug.

But Lin Beixiu didn’t understand, he reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes.

“Don’t cry, I’ll feel bad. I’ll protect you and make sure you never cry again.”

“Then why aren’t you hugging me?”

Only then did Lin Beixiu see the resentment and petulance on Qin Muxue’s face, realizing she had come for a hug.

He reached out and embraced her.

It was the same familiar softness, fragrance, but with a hint of something different.

“What about my reward?” Lin Beixiu looked at her, eagerly awaiting.

Qin Muxue chuckled, “Lie down and close your eyes.”

Lin Beixiu complied, feeling a bit excited.

At that moment, he felt a weight on his waist, then a sudden tension. Qin Muxue straddled him.

Lin Beixiu instinctively wanted to look, his body reacting, but the next moment, Qin Muxue pushed him back, covering his eyes, enveloping him in darkness.

“Don’t peek.”

Nervous yet somewhat expectant, Lin Beixiu waited.

Qin Muxue blushed even more, remembering what she was about to do, her expression firm.

*Kiss*

Lin Beixiu stiffened, feeling the sweet breath in his mouth, an electric sensation spreading from head to toe, leaving him in a daze, unable to move.

He never expected Qin Muxue to kiss him.

He was kissed!

His first kiss was gone!!
