The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker-Chapter 562 - 526 Thank You

Qiao Lech wanted to talk with Lin Huai Shu.

The Lin Family left Lin Huai Shu behind, leading a bustling convoy away.

Once they were gone, the last car disappeared from view.

Qiao Yu and Qiao Yuxian returned to the villa.

Lin Huai Shu and Qiao Lech strolled along the path outside the villa.

They walked a certain distance, and Qiao Lech remained silent.

Lin Huai Shu was somewhat nervous, unsure of what Qiao Lech wanted to say to her.

Unsure of what the outcome ahead would be.

The two walked a bit more, arriving at the small garden in the villa district.

The landscaping of the villa was done quite well.

During this season, the garden was beautiful, with various colors.

But there were not many people.

It was all people from this villa area.

The novelty of the garden had already worn off.

There were a few people, but they were just passing by.

Qiao Lech didn’t stop, continuing to slowly walk forward.

Lin Huai Shu finally couldn’t help it: "Lech, what do you want to say to me?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Qiao Lech looked at him.

Lin Huai Shu looked at her.

Qiao Lech was wearing a loose short-sleeve shirt, her hair freshly washed, softly draping down.

Qiao Lech smiled and said, "I thought you’d ask before we entered this garden."

Lin Huai Shu was slightly taken aback, then smiled too, saying, "I held back. I wanted to ask you at the villa entrance."

Qiao Lech smiled again and said, "Actually, there’s nothing much I want to say, just thinking you make decisions too quickly."

"Not too fast," Lin Huai Shu said, "I should have made it sooner."

Qiao Lech looked at him, said nothing more, and continued walking forward.

She stopped talking, and Lin Huai Shu grew even more nervous.

He wanted to ask again but feared bothering Qiao Lech, so he held back.

Quietly walking beside Qiao Lech.

The two walked through the small garden, then a bit further, until Qiao Lech led Lin Huai Shu to an ice cream store.

She bought two ice creams, giving one to Lin Huai Shu.

Lin Huai Shu didn’t know what she intended but accepted it anyway.

But they still didn’t speak.

Qiao Lech led him around to the back of the ice cream store.

Behind was a long bench.

Qiao Lech sat down, signaling Lin Huai Shu to sit as well.

Lin Huai Shu hesitated, sitting with a person-space between them.

Qiao Lech glanced at him, lowered her head, tore open the ice cream wrapper, and handed the ice cream to him.

Lin Huai Shu looked at the ice cream she offered, dazed for two seconds, then quickly tore open his own and gave it to Qiao Lech.

Qiao Lech accepted it, and Lin Huai Shu took the one she offered.

Qiao Lech said, "Try it, the taste is great."

Lin Huai Shu obediently took a bite as soon as she asked.

But...he seemed to have lost his sense of taste.

Couldn’t discern any flavor.

So he took another bite.

And then another bite.

Soon after, he took yet another bite.

Qiao Lech listened to him crunch beside her.

Watching him, she asked, "Is it delicious?"

"Huh?" Lin Huai Shu had just wanted to take another bite when he heard her question, nibbling the ice cream and looking at her.

After two seconds, he released the ice cream and said, "It’s pretty good."

Qiao Lech nodded and took a bite too.

The cool sensation flowed into her stomach and spread throughout her body.

Lin Huai Shu continued crunching away next to her.

Qiao Lech ate two bites slowly, while Lin Huai Shu was already halfway done.

"Cold?" Qiao Lech asked.

"It’s alright," Lin Huai Shu replied.

"Have you calmed down now?" Qiao Lech asked again.

Lin Huai Shu tilted his head, looked at her, waited a moment, then said, "Lech, I...I’ve always been calm."

"Really?" Qiao Lech asked.

Her voice was tender with a hint of timidity.

Lin Huai Shu quieted down for a moment, then said, "Lech, I may not be emotionally calm. I can’t stay calm. About liking someone, maybe you really can’t stay calm."

"But I’m very clear-headed. I know what I want," Lin Huai Shu looked at her, excitedly letting go of his volume control, "I just want to be with you, nothing can stop me. Nothing can change my mind. I just like you. I don’t want to marry anyone else in this life but you."

Lin Huai Shu rambled on.

After finishing, matching eyes with Qiao Lech, he suddenly felt his head heating up.

He quickly ate the remaining half of the ice cream in his hand.

After finishing, his emotions seemed to stabilize a bit.

"Did I scare you?" Lin Huai Shu turned his head and asked.

Qiao Lech shook her head.

Lin Huai Shu said, "Lech, what I’m doing, is to let you know I really like you, want to be with you, want to marry you. You don’t need to reply hastily, nor feel pressure, I..."

Qiao Lech suddenly stood up.

Lin Huai Shu’s words halted with her movement.

He watched her for a while, just about to stand up himself when Qiao Lech suddenly took a step forward.

Lin Huai Shu’s seat, wanting to leave the bench, returned.

He looked up at Qiao Lech, his leg subconsciously retracting slightly.

Then he saw Qiao Lech suddenly leaning forward.

The distance between them narrowed abruptly, Lin Huai Shu’s pupils contracted, his leg retracting even more.

Then he felt a soft sensation on his right cheek.

An incredibly unfamiliar feeling.

But his body reacted very strongly to this unfamiliar feeling.

The blood in his body suddenly surged.

Constantly stimulating the skin, making the skin redden and heat.

The meridians in his body were a bit numb.

From his legs to his entire body.

He widened his eyes.

Qiao Lech swiftly pecked his cheek, then quickly stood up.

Just as she was about to back away a step, Lin Huai Shu suddenly grabbed her fingers.

It was a subconscious move; he hadn’t reacted at all.

Qiao Lech froze.

Her face was very red, her body stiff.

Looking at the redness on her neck, Lin Huai Shu said, "Lech. You..."

Qiao Lech’s eyes were on him, but in her eyes were undisguised anxiety and shyness.

Lin Huai Shu sensed her emotion, the latter half left unspoken, instead holding onto her hand and standing up.

Holding her hand, he didn’t let go.

The other hand rummaged on himself for his phone: "I...I’ll have my parents come back. We’ll get engaged first. Then discuss the wedding date."

While speaking, once he found the phone, he really called Mrs. Lin.

Qiao Lech swiftly gripped his wrist.

Lin Huai Shu looked at her, "What’s wrong? Are you unwilling again?"

With the latter sentence, Qiao Lech thought Lin Huai Shu was about to cry.

Originally feeling panicked and uneasy after doing something beyond her typical character,

Seeing Lin Huai Shu like this, she suddenly felt much more at ease: "I...I didn’t."

Lin Huai Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiao Lech said, "Let’s...try first. If it’s suitable, then...continue. If not...we’ll separate."

"We won’t separate. Definitely won’t separate," Lin Huai Shu immediately said.

"Let’s try first." Qiao Lech said.

Lin Huai Shu finally had a genuine smile, "Alright, I’ll listen to you."

Qiao Lech also smiled.

Lin Huai Shu clutched her fingers, smiled foolishly as he looked at her, and after a while, he asked, "Can...I hug you?"

Qiao Lech’s face grew redder, stammering, "This...kind of thing, do you still need to ask first?"

Lin Huai Shu didn’t quite catch what she said, just heard she didn’t refuse.

So he stepped forward, holding her in his arms.

After two seconds, he tightened his arms. And after a while, he said, "Lech, thank you."
