C44

Tomorrow is the weekend, it's rare for me to sleep late, so today, I don't want to go home so early.

I let the driver go back first while I strolled to the center of the city. When night came, it became crowded and lively, and I shuttled back and forth between various snack stands, enjoying my meal. I didn't expect that I could be so happy by myself, I didn't have enough fun for a while.

By the time he got home, it was already ten o'clock at night.

I took a deep breath and carefully pushed open the door, preparing to be scolded by Song Mo Ran. This is the first time I came home so late since I moved here, although Song Mo Ran didn't set a time limit, but he would usually scold me as long as I didn't return home after 9 o'clock.

Surprisingly, the lights in the living room were turned off, so was Song Mo Ran not back yet?

He heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like he wouldn't need to curse anymore. Without turning on the light, I sat on the sofa for a while and was about to go upstairs when I heard a faint noise coming from upstairs.

Isn't there no one at home? Surprised, I quietly climbed the stairs, trying my best not to make any noise.

The noise came from my sister's bedroom, and there was a man's voice inside. I am extremely familiar with this tone, it was Song Mo Ran's.

What were they arguing about? Song Mo Ran wouldn't be facing his sister again …

For a moment, I was a little nervous. The door was ajar, and I was standing at the entrance. The sounds of quarrelling could clearly be heard from inside.

"Why did you take the gift from Xiao-Xiao?" Song Mo Ran questioned his sister angrily.

Hearing these words, I was shocked. Could it be that Song Mo Ran didn't receive my gift because his sister took it?

I suddenly recalled that when I came out of Song Mo Ran's bedroom yesterday, I bumped into my elder sister. Maybe it was me who took the present after returning to my bedroom. When I thought of this possibility, I felt extremely upset. I originally promised my elder sister that I would stay away from Song Mo Ran, but I was actually unable to hold it in.

Lin Xiaoxiao, what have you done? I silently blamed myself.

"Are you sure you can't see me at all?" Her every word was like a sharp knife, cutting at my heart.

Then there was a desperate silence, and the air seemed to have frozen.

Just as I was about to leave, Song Mo Ran opened his mouth and coldly said, "There won't be a next time."

Standing outside the door, I could also feel my sister's despair, and my heart was full of guilt. I couldn't bear to listen any longer, so I started to walk towards my bedroom, just as Song came out of my sister's bedroom, holding the gift that I had meticulously wrapped for him. The only difference was that the wrapping paper had already been torn to shreds.

I glanced at it and hurried back to my room. Even when Song Mo Ran called to me from behind, I did not dare to stop.

After locking the door, I saw the door handle turn and Song Mo Ran try to enter. I was ready to fight with him, but I didn't expect him to give up. He didn't ask me to open the door, nor did he knock on the door.

I heaved a sigh of relief and collapsed on the bed. Looking at the tie that had been cut like that, I felt indescribably sad. My sincerity seemed especially unbearable in my sister's eyes. Everything I did seemed like a joke.

At this moment, the door opened without any warning. Song Mo Ran held a bunch of keys in his hand as he looked at me with a surprised expression.

"This is my home, do you think you can lock me?" Song Mo Ran said proudly, the present I gave him is no longer here.

I turned my head, unwilling to speak to him. My pride had already been trampled once, so I didn't want to be trampled again.

"Song Mo Ran, get out." I said coldly.

I thought he would get angry, but he unexpectedly looked at me warmly and said, "Xiao-Xiao, don't make trouble for me."

Awkward? So all this time, Song Mo Ran was neither hot nor cold to me because I was making a ruckus? For a moment, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Song Mo Ran, I didn't cause any trouble with you. As for that gift, it's to thank you for providing Li Rong with a job. But now that the gift has been scrapped, just treat it as if I never gave it to you."

Song Mo Ran squinted his eyes and gradually approached me. He said with a playful tone, "Are you sure it's just to thank me?"

I had a premonition of what was going to happen, so I hurriedly stood up, distancing myself from Song Mo Ran.

"Little girl, do you think you can escape?" After speaking, Song Mo Ran approached me and I retreated step by step. Suddenly, with my back leaning against the ice-cold wall, I finally had no way out.

Song Mo Ran leaned close to my lips. The moment he kissed me, an electric current burst forth from his heart and spread to his entire body. I collapsed into his embrace as Song Mo Ran pulled me onto the bed.

Perhaps it was because he hadn't touched me for so long that my body had become very sensitive.

"Little girl, don't make trouble for me anymore, okay?" Song Mo Ran suddenly looked at me lovingly. I nodded and allowed myself to sink into his deep eyes. Even if it meant eternal damnation, I was willing to do so.

I didn't resist him anymore, but followed his rhythm and slowly followed his rhythm. The moment he released me, I tightly hugged him, this time not thinking about my sister, not thinking about how ridiculous this was. I was like a greedy child, feeling the warmth of Song Mo Ran's chest to my heart's content.

Song Mo Ran gently caressed my head and said gently, "Xiaoxiao, thank you for the gift. I like it."

I raised my head in shock and looked at him with wide eyes. "But, that tie can't be worn anymore …"

Song Mo Ran gave me a meaningful smile and said, "Wait and see what you can wear."

I didn't ask any further. I was already very happy that he liked my gift, and it seemed like it was the first time he had said thank you to me.

When I woke up the next day, Song Mo Ran was already gone. I packed up my things briefly and went downstairs. I didn't need to go to school today.

It's already 9, I don't know if Song Mo Ran went to work at the company yet but I was still looking forward to see him.

As expected, Song Mo Ran was still sitting at the dining table, reading the newspaper and drinking his coffee.

However, he seemed a little different today. When he saw me coming downstairs, he said, "Come over for breakfast."

I walked over and stood in front of him, and only then did I notice Song Mo Ran's change.

I gave him the tie, and it hung around his neck in perfect condition!

"Why are you …"

Song Mo Ran seemed to enjoy the stupefied expression on my face. He smirked as he said, "Secret."
