Chapter 24: Holding Hands
"No... no... no... Baby... Mommy really didn't lie to you." Feng Xiao Qing quickly tried to appease the little girl. She felt slightly guilty, but thinking about their future, she slightly pushed her guilt away.
"But... why didn't Mommy do what couple do like the romance movie on TV?" Xiao Xi Xi once again asked.
"Mommy will prove it to you... But... just holding hands, okay?" Feng Xiao Qing coaxed the little girl and she decided to be bold for once. They were going to have lots of body contacts, so holding hands on the first day should be no problem, right?
Xiao Xi Xi nodded happily, but she still asked, "No kissing?"
Feng Xiao Qing shook her head in defeat. "No, Baby... Kissing is a private thing. You are still a little girl, so it isn't suitable for you to see us kissing. Next time, okay?" Feng Xiao Qing tried to appease her by telling her that she would kiss next time, hopefully, she would forget about it.
Although Xiao Xi Xi was disappointed, she still agreed. "Okay, Mommy!" After that, Xiao Xi Xi looked at Feng Xiao Qing with twinkling and hopeful eyes. Her eyes were bigger than usual because she was waiting in anticipation.
Feng Xiao Qing turned around and closed her eyes in defeat, trying to prepare herself. She really couldn't say no to Xiao Xi Xi. She opened her eyes and she was calmer than before. Feng Xiao Qing walked toward Lu Yi Feng and looked at him apologetically. She whispered softly, "I'm sorry. I really have to do this. Please don't think that I want to take advantage of you!"
Feng Xiao Qing grabbed Lu Yi Feng's arms and put her head on his shoulder. Lu Yi Feng's body was stiffened, feeling anxious because of the sudden intimate movement. Fortunately, she decided to hold his arm. At least, he wore a long-sleeves shirt, so she didn't directly touch his skin. As long as, the shirt was there, he would be fine. The allergy wouldn't act up if there was a barrier.
Her hair tickled his cheek and the familiar smell of fruity fragrance burst into his nostrils. Somehow, it made him calm, but still... his body was stiffer than usual. After all, this was the first time he was in close contact with a woman.
Zi Hao and Lin San really wanted to applaud Feng Xiao Qing for her bold behavior. They thought Lu Yi Feng would fling his arm so Feng Xiao Qing would let him go. Contrary to the expectation, Lu Yi Feng just stood rigidly without a change of expression. Zi Hao and Lin San felt like pinching themselves to know whether this was a dream or not. They never thought there would be a day the demon lord would hold hands with a woman! Hold hands! This indeed would become a piece of breaking news!
"Baby... see? Mommy doesn't lie to you?" Feng Xiao Qing smiled softly at Xiao Xi Xi, trying to prove her point.
Xiao Xi Xi nodded in satisfaction. "En..."
Feng Xiao Qing sighed in relief. She could feel the way Lu Yi Feng's whole body was very frigid. She understood how awkward this was to him and to her. After all, they had just finished signing their contract. Above all, they just met this afternoon! In the span of a few hours, they had to become lovers. She started to feel that she made a crazy decision in a spur of the moment. However, it was too late to regret her decision.
She whispered softly to Lu Yi Feng, "Are you okay? You stand like a wooden block!"
Feng Xiao Qing whispered softly on his ear and he could feel her hot minty breath tickle his ears. He felt that she was way too close! However, he knew that they must do this to make people believe in their relationship. He started to relax. Clearing his throat, he answered Feng Xiao Qing, "I'm fine. It just feels weird to me."
"I know. Me too..." Feng Xiao Qing admitted. After all, she was no expert in relationship matter too.
"Mommy... I'm so happy for you," Xiao Xi Xi cut off their conversation.
"Thank you!" Feng Xiao Qing smiled genuinely at her beloved daughter.
"Scary Uncle, please take care of my mommy! So no one would ever bully her again!" Xiao Xi Xi solemnly said.
"Bully? Is someone bullying your mommy?" Lu Yi Feng asked curiously.
