200: Chapter 200 The Secret Plan

The two of them sat on the bench for a little while longer.

The wind was a bit cooler than before, carrying a hint of the approaching autumn when it blew against their bodies.

Lu Li's arm was still wrapped around Shen Qingxue's waist, not letting go.

She was also leaning in his arms, much more relaxed than just now.

"We should probably head back."

Shen Qingxue's voice came from the area of his chest, muffled and carrying a hint of lazy nasal resonance.

Lu Li lowered his head to look at her, feeling a bit reluctant to part.

"Do you want to sit for a while longer?"

"If we sit any longer, it really will be too late."

Shen Qingxue straightened up from his arms, turned her head to look at him, and raised her hand to tidy up her hair that had been ruffled by the wind.

"Besides, tomorrow and the next several days still have a lot of things to deal with, so we need to rest early today."

Lu Li thought about it. Although he still felt a bit unsatisfied, what she said indeed made sense.

"Alright, then let's head back first."

He let go of his hand and stood up, naturally reaching out a hand towards her.

Shen Qingxue glanced at him, without hesitation, and reached out to place her hand on his palm.

Lu Li grasped her hand and used a little force to pull her up from the bench.

Waiting for her to stand firmly, he naturally let go of her hand and turned to walk in the direction where the electric scooter was parked.

Shen Qingxue followed behind him, and the two of them slowly walked back along the path they came by.

When they walked to the park entrance, that electric scooter was still quietly parked under the street lamp.

Lu Li checked it—fortunately, the battery was still there.

Then he took out the keys, unlocked it, and picked up the helmet to hand to Shen Qingxue.

"Here, put it on."

Shen Qingxue took the helmet, skillfully fastened it, and then straddled the back seat.

Lu Li also put on his helmet, straddled the bike, and turned the key.

The vehicle smoothly drove out of the park's fork in the road.

The nighttime wind was a bit cooler than the dusk.

Lu Li slightly shrank his neck, but still maintained the speed at over thirty yards, riding unhurriedly back along the moat.

The light of the street lamps swept past overhead, one section bright and one section dark, alternately flowing across the two of them.

Shen Qingxue's hands wrapped around his waist again.

This time, she hugged very naturally, as if she had already done it many times.

Lu Li didn't say anything, but the warmth and touch coming from his waist made his whole person perk up.

He slightly straightened his back, making the two of them press closer together.

"Are you cold?"

He raised his voice slightly.

"It's alright."

Shen Qingxue's voice was somewhat scattered by the wind, but her tone carried a trace of briskness.

"However, if you ride any faster, I might get cold."

Lu Li subconsciously slowed down a bit.

"Then I won't ride fast."

Shen Qingxue didn't speak, but the hands wrapped around his waist tightened slightly.

After riding for about twenty minutes, the outline of the hotel could finally be seen.

Lu Li slowed down the vehicle, turned into the access road in front of the hotel entrance, and stopped in the parking area at the entrance.

Lu Li pulled out the key, got off the bike, took off his helmet, and hung it on the handlebar.

Shen Qingxue also got off the bike, took off her helmet, her hair somewhat messy from being pressed down. She raised her hand to tidy it up, then stood in place waiting for him.

Lu Li locked the bike and turned around to look at her.

"Let's go."

Shen Qingxue nodded.

The two of them walked side by side into the hotel lobby, crossed the hall, and stepped into the elevator.

When the elevator door closed, only the two of them were left in the narrow space.

Lu Li leaned against the elevator wall with both hands in his pockets.

Shen Qingxue stood beside him, with a distance of about a fist between the two of them.

"Right, what time do you plan to go to the organizers' side tomorrow?" Lu Li asked out of curiosity.

"Around nine, go earlier to lock down the recording studio sooner, and then record a rough version of the accompaniment first."

Shen Qingxue thought for a moment and added another sentence.

"If you want to sleep in a bit longer, you can come later too. I'll go first to get the preparatory work done."

"No need, I'll go with you."

Lu Li spoke nonchalantly.

Shen Qingxue turned her head to look at him and gently nodded.

"Then it's settled, you aren't allowed to run away when the time comes."

"What a joke, do I look like the kind of person who would run away? You can rest a hundred percent assured." Lu Li looked completely confident.

"That's fine then."

Soon, the elevator reached the floor, and the door opened.

The two of them walked out and walked along the corridor towards the direction of their respective rooms.

When walking to the door of Shen Qingxue's room, she stopped, took out her room card to swipe open the door, and then turned around.

"Tonight... thank you."

Lu Li was slightly stunned.

"What for?"

"Thank you for making me feel that the wind tonight is very nice."

After saying that, she slyly blinked at Lu Li, then quickly opened the room door and fled inside.

The next second, the door was closed.

Lu Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry looking at this scene.

Afterwards, he resumed his steps and returned to his own room.

Opening the door, he casually inserted the room card into the power slot.

The lights in the room turned on.

Lu Li stood at the doorway, still recalling the scenes of today in his mind, and subconsciously revealed an auntie-like smile.

"Hehehe..."

After giggling foolishly for a while, he sat by the bed for a little while, then fished out his phone and opened the chat dialog box with her in WeChat.

Although he wanted to say something, thinking carefully... would that be a bit too deliberate?

In the end, he simply couldn't be bothered to think anymore, threw the phone beside the pillow, put his hands behind his head, and collapsed onto the bed.

Then he began to foolishly giggle "hehehe".

Even he himself didn't know what he was smiling about.

Until after another period of time, he picked up his phone again, and then opened a page in his memos.

The theme only had two words.

Plan.

Lu Li clicked in, and the first few lines of text caught his eyes.

"Find a bunch of the prettiest flowers, flowers that also suit her best."

"Write an album full of love songs, and then..."

"The confession location..."

Lu Li looked through all the plans written previously once more, then scrolled to the bottom and started editing again.

"Still need a suitable opportunity, a suitable reason, a suitable timing..."

After editing for a while, Lu Li put down his phone, turned off the lights, and lay down properly in the darkness.

He closed his eyes, his mind still uncontrollably thinking of her, thinking of those scenes.

Hiss...

Lu Li hurriedly turned over and incidentally pulled the quilt up a bit.

Forget it, forget it, stop thinking about it.

If he kept thinking further, let alone whether he'd sleep tonight or not, he at least had to give some thought to his boxers!

They're still brand new.
