The School Beauty Became My Live-in Maid to Pay Off Her Debts-Chapter 269: There is a Simple Question~ What is Love~

Chapter 269: Chapter 269: There is a Simple Question~ What is Love~

Lin Shuang parked the car at a roadside parking spot and adjusted his heartbeat, "So, are we eating here?"

"Not eating~"

Yu Zhishui took off her black coat as well, completely shedding her camouflaged disguise.

Her two little hands adorably swayed, adding a "bling bling" effect manually.

"Does this outfit look good on me, Lin Shuang?"

She wore a pink off-shoulder long-sleeve top, with fragile-looking straps tied behind her neck.

Below, she wore a black lace-tiered skirt adorned with many cute bows, fluttering as she swayed from side to side.

Her legs were encased in long white stockings, also decorated with bows.

"Does it look good? Does it?"

She was like a kid who scored full marks, wanting a little red flower as a reward.

Yu Zhishui’s face read: Hurry up and praise me!

Lin Shuang pinched her cheeks twice, "Super~ pretty."

Oh no, being with this silly girl, even the way I talk is becoming childish!

"Hehe~ I took a while to choose this."

Having received her little red flower, Yu Zhishui happily held Lin Shuang’s hand, passing her cheek, and sliding down to her neck.

"This outfit has many cute bows, there’s even one tied behind my neck~"

Lin Shuang’s hand had already found that bow, where the straps and off-shoulder top connected.

He couldn’t help but remember... back in middle school, some of the girls in his class also had such bows behind their necks.

Lin Shuang, touching the bow, asked the question that had troubled him for a long time, "...If this is untied, will the dress fall off?"

"Not at all, it’s just for decoration~"

Yu Zhishui took his hand and untied the bow.

As expected, the dress was still firmly in place.

Yu Zhishui puffed up her chest, "See, no problem, right?"

The little bow at the front of her dress seemed tight and bursting.

Lin Shuang pursed his lips, "Good that it won’t fall off."

Yu Zhishui grabbed his other hand, "Help me tie it back up, Lin Shuang!"

Tying bows was something Lin Shuang was quite skilled at.

He used to help Wanwan and Xiao Han tie shoelaces and hairbands a lot as a child.

It was Wanwan who had taught him hands-on how to tie shoelaces into bows.

He leaned in, extending both hands to Yu Zhishui’s back, ready to properly retie the straps.

Only after starting did Lin Shuang realize: this pose almost wrapped this silly idol entirely in his embrace.

Her flawless face was just a few fingers away.

Second shock!

Yu Zhishui, gazing at him unblinkingly, smiled and said, "I look pretty, right, Lin Shuang~"

At such close distance, when she spoke, her warm moist breath scattered all over his face.

Lin Shuang dared not breathe heavily and quickly re-tied the bow, performing a tactical retreat to create distance.

"Very pretty..."

— This silly idol definitely went for further training!

She’s learned some tricks!

Back in Hai City, she was naive, but with just her perfect face and figure, she could make Lin Shuang’s heart race.

And now... it seems she’s even learned tactics! Silly girl’s been reading military strategies!

Lin Shuang’s heart raced uncontrollably!

Yu Zhishui still firmly held onto his hand, "Don’t run away~"

She slid his hand down to her thigh, resting on the white stockings, "Here too, there’s a bow, cute isn’t it?"

—She definitely learned some tricks!

Lin Shuang pinched the Absolute Domain between her stockings and skirt hem, soft and springy, fair and delicate.

"Shuishui, have you been reading romance novels lately?"

Yu Zhishui proudly responded, "Not just romance novels, I’ve watched a lot of romantic dramas too!"

She squinted one eye and gave Lin Shuang a perfect idol-like wink.

"How about that, are you moved? Have I mesmerized you?"

For Lin Shuang, it wasn’t just his heart that was moved, it was about to burst out of his chest!

Too adorable!

Yu Zhishui grinned and mimed a gun with her hand, even blowing on the "barrel".

Gotcha!

Lin Shuang took a deep breath, speaking with some difficulty.

"Shuishui, maybe you should cut down on those."

But Yu Zhishui was still holding his hand, tickling the center of his palm.

"Lin Shuang."

"Mm, Shuishui."

"Last time in Hai City, I asked you what exactly is liking someone, what is love."

Of course, Lin Shuang remembered; he nodded softly, "Mm..."

"After you left, I read lots and lots of romance novels and dramas to find the answer."

Her fingertips were still caressing Lin Shuang’s palm—he belatedly realized, she seemed to be writing something there.

What is she writing? Lin Shuang’s heart was too unsettled to figure it out.

Yu Zhishui tilted her head slightly, continuing, "But later, I stopped watching them."

She stared unwaveringly at him, "Do you know why, Lin Shuang?"

Lin Shuang vaguely felt that this silly idol had written the last word in his palm, "you."

He spoke softly, "...Did you find the answer?"

Yu Zhishui pulled out a neatly packed box from her bag.

"Uh~ I planned to give this to you later tonight, but the atmosphere is right, so let’s strike while the iron is hot."

She handed the box to Lin Shuang.

"Open it and see, Lin Shuang~"

Lin Shuang’s one hand was still firmly held by her, with his other hand he carefully opened the box.

Inside was a crystal bottle.

The bottle was filled with folded paper hearts.

Colorful, all brimming with a young girl’s fervent heart.

Yu Zhishui held his hand and pressed it against her cheek.

"I don’t need to read those novels and watch those dramas anymore, I already know what liking someone means, Lin Shuang."

"Every day I think about you so much, I tell myself... every time I think of you, I should send you a message, so I end up sending you hundreds of messages every day. I worry it might annoy you, but I just miss you too much."

"Even in the middle of the night, I miss you so much I can’t sleep... Every time this happens, I get up and fold a heart to put in this bottle."

"Look, this bottle is already full, it can’t fit anymore."

"I was so happy knowing I’d see you that I danced too joyously during practice and twisted my foot..."

Yu Zhishui covered Lin Shuang’s mouth, "It’s healed now, don’t worry, just keep listening."

"When I ran out of the airport today... it was probably the fastest I’ve run in my life. I just wanted to leave the whole world behind and rush into your arms."

"Lin Shuang, you once said, someday, when I’m this close to you again, I would feel my heart racing, my face flushing, wanting to hug you, wanting to kiss you."

"—That would mean, I really like you."

Yu Zhishui’s cheek rubbed against Lin Shuang’s palm.

"Now... can you feel my hot cheeks? Hmm, and my heartbeat."

She pulled Lin Shuang into her embrace.

"Can you hear it, my heart is about to burst out, Lin Shuang, from the very first second I saw you, up till now, this heart has been happily beating for you."

"—All of this, does it prove that I’m hopelessly in love with you, Lin Shuang?"
