It's terrible. Mr. Lu is too clingy.

I bought three skirts in total.

When checking out, Lu Ci stared at the flat shoes on his feet and was not very satisfied.

"I think we need to buy another pair of high heels," he said.

Xie Xingran did have high heels, but they clearly didn't match these clothes.

And because of her height of 170 cm, she doesn't like wearing high heels and doesn't wear them unless it is necessary.

After hearing his suggestion, he immediately responded:

"There's a shoe store next door, let's go. By the way, have you ever worn high heels?"

Lu Ci didn't care: "How difficult is this? Look at me learning and putting it on right away. I can definitely do it."

Finally arrived at the scene,

Wearing high heels, Lu Ci felt like she was stepping on burning coals, and she staggered from side to side when she walked.

"Be careful!" Xie Xingran stepped forward in time and used his arms to support his body as he fell forward.

The movement was too fast and too violent, and if he wasn't careful, the strong arm collided and squeezed violently with the soft body in front of him.

Then Lu Ci also let out a hiss.

[It hurts. Tsk, I don't know how the actresses in those movies can feel comfortable being kneaded like that.]

[I will definitely be gentle from now on and will never hurt her.]

Xie Xingran didn't think anything of it at first, but when he heard the gangster's inner voice, his face instantly turned red.

"You! Shameless!!"

As expected, there is no man who doesn't watch movies. He actually dared to imagine her!

Xie Xingran shook him off, glared at Lu Ciye who was confused, and wanted to leave after leaving him behind.

"Huh? No," Lu Ci also looked innocent as he staggered to chase her.

"How am I shameless? If anyone is shameless, it should be you. You touched me first. Besides, I am a woman now!" He complained aggrievedly.

Just as she was about to leave the store, the waiter came up to stop her and said, "I'm sorry, ma'am, you can't wear these shoes until you pay for them."

"Hello? You said you would pay me."

Seeing that the other party still kept walking, Lu Ci could no longer bear it and shouted:

"Lu Ciye, stop right there!"

[I'm really impressed. When I get angry outside, I can only call my own name! ]

Xie Xingran regained his senses, stopped, held his forehead with his hand as if in pain, and sighed deeply.

God, please take back this mind-reading ability of mine. I really can’t stand his inner voice!

Turning around, Xie Xingran went back into the store.

Looking at Lu Ciye, who was standing in front of the door with red eyes and a stubborn expression, the embarrassment in her heart suddenly turned into guilt.

From his perspective, he was scolding him for no reason and wanted to abandon him.

When I think about it this way, I really deserve to die!

"I'll help you back."

She reached out to hold his arm, but was pushed away.

Then, Lu Ci also kicked his feet, and the poor high heels were thrown onto the tiles with a thump thump.

Its owner walked barefoot to the sofa with an angry look on his face and sat down. His eyes turned red as if he was about to cry again.

[It's inexplicable, my mood is so unpredictable! What did I do wrong to deserve this?]

Xie Xingran sighed, squatted down to pick up the high heels and handed them to the waiter.

"Please wrap up these shoes."

The waiter, who was originally dissatisfied with the scene just now, immediately smiled, took it and ran to pack it.

Xie Xingran looked around the store and picked up a pair of white high heels with thick soles and chunky heels.

[I will never forgive her this time, no matter what I say!]

[As expected, there are only zero and countless times of abandonment. She abandoned me last time, and I shouldn't have forgiven her for letting her think she could abandon me again!]

Lu Ci was also really very angry and even shed two tears without her knowing.

Xie Xingran walked up to him with the shoes, knelt on one knee, and put the shoes on him personally.

Lu Ci naturally refused to cooperate.

After a silent argument, Xie Xingran lost his patience and simply grabbed one of his feet, preventing him from moving.

Lu Ci wanted to struggle, but she held him tightly.

Although she is 170cm tall, her feet are only size 36, which can be considered fair and petite.

At this moment, she was wrapped in "his" big and powerful palm and could not break free at all.

She carefully put both shoes on his feet, and they fit perfectly.

Fortunately, he didn't kick it off this time.

Xie Xingran raised his head, knelt on one knee in front of him, and said:

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scold you or leave you.

It was just too sudden, and I couldn’t accept the touch at first.”

The man who just said he would never forgive her, now looked calmer because of her actions.

[Okay, okay, she's already apologized to me and explained the reason, so I'll forgive her this last time.]

He snorted softly: "You swear not to abandon me again, otherwise, we will never get back together!"

Xie Xingran hesitated.

Xie Xingran was glared at.

Xie Xingran compromised.

"Okay, I swear."

"What did you swear?"

"I swear, I won't abandon you again, or I'll never get you back. Okay?"

"Okay."

The two smiled at each other and reconciled again.

—

Only the Lu family members were present at this birthday party, but not every member of the Lu family was free to come back.

Most of the time, sisters-in-law come with their children to have a piece of cake.

Those who didn't come either sent the gifts back long ago or gave money directly.

As the most favored youngest child in the Lu family, Lu Ci is undoubtedly lucky.

Every birthday since I was little has always been celebrated with my family.

Although the situation this time was a bit special, Mrs. Lu was very thoughtful and prepared two birthday hats.

She even pretended to be disgusted and said that finally someone wanted her grandson, thanks to her granddaughter-in-law.

Then have them all put on birthday hats, blow out the candles together, and make a wish.

No one had any objections.

Standing in the center of the crowd, feeling the blessings and kindness coming from all directions, Xie Xingran suddenly felt tears welling up in his eyes.

How long has it been since you had such a lively birthday?

The last time it was so lively was when I celebrated my sixteenth birthday with my brother, grandmother and sister Ayan.

It has been ten years since she last felt the happiness of having her family together, and she felt nostalgic.

If only, if only her family were still here, how wonderful it would be.

In the candlelight, her hand was suddenly held by someone.

Soft and seamless.

She lowered her head and met Lu Ciye's gentle and determined eyes, which struck deep into her soul.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and everything around was paused.

They are right in front of us, yet seem to be far away.

The distance between the two hearts is pulling, sometimes closer, sometimes farther away.

But what is certain is that

Their hearts were beating wildly because of each other.

Just a look.

"Happy birthday!!"

"Make a wish, little birthday boys."

"Still looking? Your eyes are about to become thready."

"We're still holding hands. We can't be apart for even a moment."

"We're newlyweds, so we have to understand."

"Hahaha."

The joking voice brought them back to their senses, and they both instantly let go of each other's hands and turned their faces away at the same time.

Under the dim candlelight, the blush on her cheeks was concealed a little so as to avoid being teased.

At the urging of their elders, the two put their hands together and began to make a wish.

It wasn't her birthday, so Xie Xingran didn't plan to make a wish, she just pretended.

But Lu Ciye's wish came into her ears very clearly.
