You're My Only Star

Hugging the girl in his embrace, Lu Xun carried her back into the living room. Then, he went around the house to open every window.

The smoke gradually disappeared and it was not that difficult to breathe.

Lu Xun returned to the living room carrying a glass of water. "Drink. You'll feel better afterward."

Song Xing Xing stared at him before she obediently reached for the glass. She drank half of its contents and held the glass in her hand tightly.

Lu Xun observed her every move and sighed. Looking at her, he could guess that there was something that was bothering her. Otherwise, how could she stand in front of the stove with a dazed expression? She had almost caused a fire.

When he thought of what would happen if he did not show up in time, Lu Xun grew distressed.

He wanted to scold her. However, he realized that with her condition at this time, scolding would only turn the situation worst. Song Xing Xing had something in her mind and she was still shocked after what had happened. At this time, he needed to be soft.

Lu Xun pulled her into his embrace. His hand caressed her long hair. It was clear that he was coaxing her. "Alright, tell me. What's been bothering you?"

She was still fine when he saw her in the morning. Lu Xun could not figure out what was it that made her mind distracted.

"Was it something related to work?"

They have taken a few days off from work. Lu Xun knew that Song Xing Xing would be busy with work once she returned to the office. It was possible that she would be thinking about her piling assignments.

Song Xing Xing shook her head but did not say anything afterward.

"Xing Xing, tell me, aright?" His tone was soft. "If you didn't tell me anything, then how would I know what you were worried about? If you have a problem you need to tell me. We'll work together to resolve everything."

Song Xing Xing pondered over his words for a while. She thought about Liu Yu Sheng's words again. Her hand was gripping on his shirt tightly as she continued to worry.

However, under his caress, her body began to relax. Song Xing Xing stared back at Lu Xun with an aggrieved look on her face. "Lu Xun."

"Un."

Song Xing Xing leaned on his chest again. Her arms were hugging him around his waist tightly. "I like you very, very much."

His expression froze at her sudden confession. After a few seconds, his lips tilted up into a warm smile. "I like you very, very much too." Lu Xun hugged her and kissed her on top of her head. "However, telling me you like me isn't going to divert my worry. Xing Xing, what's going on?"

"Just now, I suddenly realized that we are engaged even before I meet your parents." She pulled away and stared back at him. "What would I do if your parents did not like me?"

Lu Xun stared back at her with a puzzled expression. He could not help but wonder why did their conversation suddenly shifted to his parents.

"Just now, were you distracted because you have been thinking about this?" Lu Xun asked. "You were worried that my parents wouldn't like you?"

Song Xing Xing bit her lower lips. She was a little conflicted. When she realized how much she liked him, the insecurities that she had never worried about had suddenly become a problem.

Even she realized that her thinking was a little foolish. But once these thoughts came to her mind, she could not stop herself from thinking too much.

The girl did not give him an answer but one look at her face told him that this was the answer.

Lu Xun looked at her in disbelief. His hand stretched to pinch her nose.

His girl was a little silly, wasn't she?

"Silly girl. My parents would like you."

"How do you know this? I haven't seen them once. What if they think that I am too young for you?"

Lu Xun still thought that Song Xing Xing was a little silly. However, knowing what she was worried about warmed his heart. The thought that this girl liked him very much that she started to worry about nonsensical things made him happy.

It turned out that he was not the only one who would often worry about such matters.

The most important thing was that she liked him very much.

"Have you been watching too much drama?" Lu Xun chuckled. "My parents would not dislike you. In fact, I think that they would adore you very much."

Song Xing Xing looked at him and thought that she shouldn't believe his words easily.

"Xing Xing, I haven't been in another relationship after I broke up. In the past, my parents have been trying to help me move on and try to introduce me to another girl. However, I was not interested. I didn't think that I want to be in another relationship. That was until I met you. Rather than disliking you, I think my parents would be thankful to you. At least their son is finally willing to settle down. They trust me. Since I have decided to be with you, they will trust that I have made a good decision."

Her eyes were still in a daze.

"Moreover, my parents were not hard to get along with," Lu Xun continued. "My father spent most of his time doing research ad my mother would follow him wherever he goes. I think the number of times you get to see them in a year could be counted with one hand. Whatever conflict that you often see between in-laws would not happen. I promise."

Hearing his words, Song Xing Xing was finally at ease. But she was suddenly curious about his childhood.

Lu Xun chuckled when he heard her question. "It's not that bad. My father didn't always travel around. At least, before my sister and I had gone to university, my father would often do his research in the laboratory." He pinched at the tip of her nose again and asked, "Let's get back to this situation. Xing Xing, what do you plan to do with your apartment?"

Song Xing Xing raised her head and recalled that she had almost burned the house.. The smell of smoke was everywhere and her appearance was a little disheveled.
