System: Master Your Life-Chapter 625 - 57: Return to Jiangdu, Preparing for Big Sister’s Birthday (Part 3)
So, Chi Linyue decided to seriously focus on work, trying to use a busy day to bring her mind back to peace.
Like this, Chi Linyue worked tirelessly throughout the day, not leaving the office even for lunch.
Until it was time to get off work, she took the elevator and walked all the way to the underground parking lot.
The sound of her high heels echoed in the underground parking lot.
From a distance, she saw her car.
And also from afar, she saw the young man in a suit standing next to her car.
He had a new, stylish hairstyle, wore a sleek black suit, and looked handsome standing there.
Chi Linyue thought she was seeing things, couldn’t help rubbing her eyes, and realized it wasn’t an illusion.
That was indeed Xu Lin.
"Why are you standing there in a daze? Aren’t you coming over?"
Xu Lin suddenly spoke.
"Talking to your sister like that?"
Chi Linyue playfully scolded and quickened her steps.
Wearing high heels, she couldn’t walk fast, and at this moment, she regretted choosing them for the day.
If she had known, she would have worn her usual shoes.
Just as Chi Linyue quickly reached Xu Lin, he reached out and pulled her into his arms, bending down to give her a passionate kiss.
A reunion after a long time apart felt like a new marriage, and Chi Linyue was just as eager.
They kissed for a few minutes.
"Weren’t you supposed to be in Capital City?"
"I came back yesterday, I said I was in Capital City and you believed it?"
Xu Lin laughed heartily.
"You little brat, always tricking me!" Chi Linyue glared at him, wrapping her arms around his waist, inhaling his familiar scent.
"I promised to celebrate your birthday, it’s a commitment I won’t forget, so no matter how hard it is, even if I had to walk back all the way from Capital City, even if the world was coming to an end, even if the seas dried up and the rocks crumbled, I would come back without hesitation."
"Where did you learn to say such things? What nonsense is that?"
Such cliché lovestruck lines were the kind Chi Linyue would skip when watching TV dramas, yet when Xu Lin said them, she couldn’t help feeling touched, especially today when Xu Lin unexpectedly appeared during her lowest moment.
"Do you like it? I’ll say more."
"Then say it!"
"Let me check the internet for some good lines first."
Xu Lin promptly took out his phone, ready to search for romantic lines for her.
"You little brat, can’t you be serious for once!"
"Haha..."
Xu Lin laughed heartily, "Let’s go grab something to eat first, and later we can celebrate your birthday."
"Mhm."
Chi Linyue couldn’t help but anticipate what Xu Lin had planned for her birthday.
Dinner ended quickly amidst Chi Linyue’s anticipation.
Around eight in the evening, Xu Lin drove to the hotel underground garage.
As Chi Linyue was about to open the door to get out, Xu Lin suddenly stopped her.
"Don’t get out yet."
"What’s wrong?"
Xu Lin said nothing, got out of the car, walked to the passenger side, opened the door, and bent down with an elegant demeanor.
"My dear Miss Chi, do you understand?"
"Hmm!"
Chi Linyue snorted playfully, knowing Xu Lin wanted to carry her again.
So she went along and wrapped her arms around his neck, and Xu Lin’s right hand slipped under her knees, easily lifting her up.
It was Xu Lin’s favorite one-handed princess carry.
"Let’s go upstairs for your birthday. Actually, I prepared a dreamy birthday room, did it all yesterday."
"So thoughtful?"
"After all, I did plan ahead, right? See, I even flew back a day early, with such thoughtfulness, aren’t you going to show some appreciation?"
"You can do whatever you want tonight!"
Chi Linyue leaned closer to Xu Lin’s ear, speaking each word with a seductive tone: "Tonight, I’m all yours!"
"Really?"
"If you don’t believe me, forget it!"
"Haha..."
