After the confession Han Zixin had a dinner date nned for the two of them. They had a candle light dinner. The romantic music was ying in the background while the two of them were sitting in front of each other staring deep into each other’s eyes.


    All this was arranged by no one else but his grandfather who had to take matters in his own hands as he wanted to see his grandson settled. He was yet not informed that his n had worked and his grandson had finally scored a girlfriend. When the old man would find out, there was no doubt that he would be the happiest man on the.


    Although Han Zixin had nned the confession he was not sure that she would say yes. Maybe, somewhere in his heart he knew that she would say yes but her answer still surprised him.


    More than anything, thosest words that she said took him by surprise. It was not just a surprise but he had literally stopped breathing at the time when she said that she loved him too.


    He knew that she loved him but he had never expected that she would say those words to him just as soon as he said them. He had always known that she loved him like a best friend and family but to be loved like a lover by her was no less than a wishe true for him.


    Even now she was sitting in front of him with their eyes on each other and her hand in his, he still could not help but feel if it was a dream and if it was a dream, it was a beautiful dream nevertheless. And he would never want to get out of the beautiful dream that he was lost in.


    “It is such a beautiful day, isn’t it?” Han Zixin said with a sigh.


    For him that was the most beautiful and memorable day of his life as it was the day when he got what he had wanted more than anything in this world– her.


    Hearing hisment, she burst into a fit ofughter. He was being so cute after bing her boyfriend that he made her wonder why she took so much time answering his question. God, she was acting so dumb. But what do they say about women in love? They are allowed to act dumb and psycho while being in love.


    Han Zixin leaned in and caressed her cold cheek with his warm hands and she raised her brow in question.


    “I am trying to feel if you are real,” Han Zixin said. “I feel as if all of this is a beautiful dream.”


    An Xin leaned in and pinched his cheek, making him wince and he said, “What are you doing, little blockhead?”


    An XIn red at him and said, “Han Zixin, your girlfriend can cut your marks for calling her stupid nicknames on the very first day of the rtionship.”


    He was testing his limits as well as teasing her at the same time. Now that she had agreed to be his girlfriend, it was like there was no fear left for him in this world.


    An Xin hid her face in her hand, hiding her flushedness. Look at her boyfriend, he was making her feel shy. Oh god, what was wrong with her? Why was she repeating that he was her boyfriend again and again?


    But he was her boyfriend and she had every right to call him her boyfriend.


    “Tell me, baby, “Han Zixin grinned.


    “Don’t call me that. This is reserved for real babies not for me,” An Xin said while her face was still buried in her hands. “I am a grown up woman not a baby now.”


    “What about darling?” Han Zixin said with another grin. She could tell that he was up to no good.


    “That’s for a wife, “An Xin said.


    “Then, honey it is,”Han Zixin concluded.


    An Xin gave him a look and he said, “Do you want me to tell you how sweet you are?”


    He leaned in and whispered as his gaze fell on her lips. “Should I?”


    An Xin turned red under his gaze.


    “You are taking liberties on the very first day, “An Xin said.


    “You are my girlfriend, honey,” Han Zixin whispered.


    An Xin and Han Zixin just began their journey of lovers today. They were the kind of best friends that never got shy because of anything. Physical contact was normal between the two of them but now that their rtionship status changed, the way they used to behave also changed.


    He was easily able to make her shy with his talks.


    “I will drop you home, “Han Zixin said.


    An Xin nodded her head.


    Today, the simple task of wearing a helmet was outrightly romantic for the two of them. He was trying her helmet while she was softly looking at him.


    “Hold me tight, “Han Zixin said as he drove the motorcycle and she leaned in to hold him right which was more like her hugging his back while he was driving his motorcycle.


    When An Xin reached home, there was a huge smile on her face. When she saw her mother talking on the phone, she hugged her and twirled her around in happiness.


    “What’s up with you?” An Qinyan asked.


    An Xin grinned while shaking her head and ran to her room. She was feeling as if she was walking on clouds. She was so excited that she didn’t know what to do with this much excitement. She went to her room and fell on the bed, giggling and swaying her legs.


    On the other hand, Han Zixin went to his grandfather’s house. The old man was waiting for him to call since this evening but there was no response from his grandson.


    When Han Zixin came home, the old man jumped in excitement. From the look on Han Zixin’s face, he could tell An Xin had said yes!


    The entire night, the grandfather and grandson celebrated.

    Song Xueyun and Han Nanxian just had dinner when she got a video call from An Xin. To take the call, she went to her new bedroom that she shared with her husband. As she epted the call, she saw Shen Yue and Jiang Yao, An Xin’s roommate and friend from Boston was also connected.


    “Hey, besties!” An Xin grinned as she came in front of the camera.


    “Xiuxiu, why are you sparkling today?” Jiang Yao, who had a face mask on, asked. It seemed she was doing her skin care routine when An Xin called. Anything could wait but the call couldn’t.


    “Because I am dazzling, “An Xinughed.


    “And what’s the reason behind such blinding dazzle?” Shen Yue, who was still in the office, asked. “You look extremely happy today. Then again, you are always happy. But something is telling me that something big happened and this grin on your face is not your everyday cheerfulugh.”


    “Did you hit a jackpot, Xin?” Song Xueyun asked him.


    “Yes, you can say so, “An Xinughed. Was Han Zixin less than a jackpot? No. He was not. He was the jackpot that a person could not hit unless he or she was extremely lucky.


    “Will you tell us what happened or let us die in curiosity?” Jiang Yao asked. “I am hungry. And now you made me curious. What will you do if I die out of curiosity before hunger?”


    An Xin red at her. “Yaoyao, why aren’t you eating if you are hungry? What did I tell you about not skipping meals?”


    “What can I do? There is no one who makes me want to cook, “Jiang Yao sighed. “Now I want someone to cook for me.”


    “Find a man then, “An Xin scoffed.


    “You have two brothers. Just set me up with one, “Jiang Yao said, nonchntly. “Make sure that the one you set me up with knows how to cook.”


    “Both of them know how to cook but I am doubtful Lu Xuan will give water to even a dying person much less than cook for you, “An Xin answered. “As for Yan Ge…” While saying this, her gaze fell on Shen Yue who was signing some documents. “He isplicated. Stay away from him for your own good.”


    “Aiyoo, why am I always attracting emotionally unavable people all the time?” Jiang Yao muttered, cursing her bad luck.


    “We attract emotionally unavable people because somewhere we are also the same. We are running away from the emotionalmitment. When you are ready to open your heart to someone, the right person wille, “Song Xueyun answered.


    “Women in love are surely wise, “An Xinmented.


    Song Xueyunughed. “Why don’t you be one of us?”


    “Maybe, I already am one of you,” An Xin said.


    “What?!!!!!”<!--
