Early in the morning, Kiana arrived at the agreed meeting place, but Su Moqian was nowhere to be seen.
Just as she was beginning to wonder, she suddenly heard a sound behind her.
She turned around and found that Su Moqian had somehow sneaked up behind her.
The moment she turned, he gently pressed an apple against her cheek.
Facing Kiana's puzzled expression, Su Moqian responded with a gentle smile:
"Did this little fool oversleep again and not have time to eat? Here, eat this apple."
[Like cola in summer,
Like cocoa in winter,
You are the right time and the right person~]
In the sweltering heat of summer.
Although it was hot, Kiana still clung to Su Moqian while playing games.
Unable to resist this clingy little bug, Su Moqian said:
"Kiana, aren't you hot sticking so close to me?"
Kiana giggled and raised the cup beside her. "Not at all, because I have ice-cold cola!"
When winter arrived.
Seeing the two cups of iced drinks Kiana had bought from the convenience store, Su Moqian angrily flicked her forehead.
He then took the iced drinks away and returned with two cups of hot cocoa.
He stuffed one into Kiana's hands and scolded her:
"It's the middle of winter. Why are you drinking iced drinks? Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
Faced with Su Moqian's scolding, Kiana pouted, then shared half the scarf around her neck with him.
After wrapping the scarf around him, Kiana gently hugged Su Moqian and said with a soft laugh:
"Because you're here, I'm not afraid of the cold."
[We already promised
To spend next weekend together,
Your little moods mean the world to me~]
After the two officially started dating, they scheduled their first date as a couple for the following weekend.
On the night before the date, Kiana excitedly rolled around in bed and couldn't fall asleep until very late.
As a result, Kiana accidentally overslept.
When she woke and saw how late it was, Kiana skipped breakfast, hastily tidied herself up, and dashed out.
Because she knew that the person she loved would surely have thoughtfully prepared breakfast for her.
[I don't know why either,
Your wounds hadn't even healed,
Yet you barged right into my heart~]
Kiana still vaguely remembered that, when she had just arrived in Nagazora, the first friend she made was Su Moqian.
Although the two of them had nearly fought because of a misunderstanding, they soon became close friends.
For some reason, Su Moqian's eyes had always held a doting light whenever he looked at her.
Having spent years alone and lacking both a father's and a mother's love, Kiana experienced for the first time what it felt like to be willful, and she consequently became completely dependent on Su Moqian.
And so, their relationship grew better and better until they finally became lovers.
At that moment, Su Moqian, immersed in his memories, was the first to return to his senses.
Seeing Kiana staring intently at the guitar, he couldn't help but complain:
"Hey, Kiana, stop staring at the guitar all the time. You're supposed to look at me, you know?"
Kiana's body stiffened as she argued:
"I—I'm not doing that because I'm afraid I'll play the guitar badly!"
"Hm?" Su Moqian raised an eyebrow and asked with a beaming smile:
"Our lady Kiana, are you afraid of playing the guitar badly, or are you afraid of making eye contact with me?"
At those words, Kiana's face flushed crimson, and she hurriedly argued:
"I—I'm not afraid!"
"Oh? Really?" Su Moqian leaned closer with a teasing smile.
"Of—of course it's true! I'm not afraid at all!"
Kiana's face had turned completely red, but she still stubbornly refused to admit it.
Seeing Kiana being just as stubborn as she was, Su Moqian became interested.
He reached out and lifted Kiana's chin, then said with a sly smile:
"Since our lady Kiana isn't afraid, then you'd better look me in the eye during the rest of our song~"
"I—I know..."
Kiana fought to suppress her blush as she met Su Moqian's gaze and plucked the strings, continuing the music from before.
[You were the one who made a flower bloom in my withered desert~
You were the one who made me want to write you a love song every day~
With the most romantic chorus,
You softly harmonize,
Our eyes resolute in the choice we made~]
Of course, even the sweetest romance couldn't remain overwhelmingly sugary forever.
Even Su Moqian and Kiana were bound to have times when they rubbed each other the wrong way.
Angry over something, the little bug glared at Su Moqian and shouted furiously:
"Su Moqian, I'm cutting ties with you for one minute!"
At that, Su Moqian looked displeased and turned his head away with a cold snort:
"Hmph!"
Kiana turned her head away as well. "Hmph!"
"Hmph!"
"Hmph!"
After one minute of this, Kiana threw herself back into Su Moqian's arms:
"Wah, Moqian, I want sweet-and-sour pork!"
Su Moqian curled his lips. "We're still not speaking to each other!"
At that, Kiana puffed out her cheeks like a cat and began to whimper:
"No fair! The minute's already over!"
[You were the one who turned my world pink from that moment on~
You were the one who made me want only you in my life~
Love must be carefully carved,
I am Michelangelo,
Sculpting the happiest style with all my heart~]
But no matter how you put it, Su Moqian and Kiana both knew very clearly that they were happy.
Meeting each other truly was the luckiest thing that had ever happened to them!
As the two sang, a ray of sunlight shot in through the window and landed directly on the bedside table.
On the table stood a framed photograph. It was a picture of Su Moqian and Kiana on a date.
From the smiles on their faces alone, it was clear how happy they had been at the time.
In the corner of the photograph, there was also a line of text:
Photographer: Raiden Mei
But with a twist—this is exactly the kind of thing I like!
I came up with this extra chapter on a whim today. After finishing it, Qian Yun was personally quite satisfied with it, though I don't know whether everyone else will like it.
If everyone likes the extra chapters, Qian Yun will see whether there's a chance to put together a few more later.
Chapter 51: Lady Kiana's Whimsical Ideas
Once again, Kiana and Su Moqian had stayed up fooling around until late at night, and it was now close to midnight.
After Su Moqian repeatedly pleaded with her, Kiana finally gave up on watching another movie and decided to go to sleep.
After turning off the television, Kiana turned and asked:
"Moqian, where are you sleeping tonight?"
Su Moqian replied without hesitation, "Obviously in the bedroom. It's not like I can sleep on the sofa, right?"
"Huh?"
Kiana's heart jolted in surprise. She clearly hadn't expected Su Moqian to be so bold.
Although they had confirmed at the dessert shop that they had feelings for each other, they hadn't officially established their relationship yet, had they?
Wasn't this moving a little too fast?
Well, although they had indeed gone through life and death together, things like this still had to proceed step by step, didn't they?
But it would be a little unreasonable to send Moqian to sleep on the sofa in the living room.
Hmm... At most, I'll give him part of the bed, with a boundary between us. That's already the greatest mercy this lady can offer!
Kiana's not-so-bright mind went into overdrive, and she soon made up her mind.
She pursed her lips and said:
"Moqian, I'm warning you. Don't cross the line, or I'll beat you to death!"
Normally, in a situation like this, Kiana would definitely let the other person have a taste of the Kaslana family's iron fist.
But at this moment, perhaps because of that slight thrill and inexplicable anticipation, Kiana ultimately agreed to share a bed with Su Moqian.
Hearing this, Su Moqian asked in some surprise:
"What are you talking about? Of course I won't cross the line. Besides, I can't cross it anyway, can I?"
A moment later.
Kiana, who had been feeling inexplicably expectant, fell into deep thought as she watched Su Moqian make a bedroll on the floor.
So she had misunderstood him just now?
Kiana couldn't help asking, "Why are you making a bed on the floor? Wouldn't sleeping on the sofa be more comfortable?"
Su Moqian shook his head. "The sofa's too soft. I like sleeping on a hard bed."
"Huh? Your family is obviously so rich, yet you still sleep on hard beds? Are martial artists really this strict with themselves?" Kiana asked in surprise from her soft bed.
Su Moqian smiled and explained in response to Kiana's question:
Before you continue
