"No, I want to read it now! The wait for updates is killing , and you refuse to write more."
"Oh, co on. If you read it right in front of , I’ll be embarrassed."
The less Lin Xi wanted Si Wen to see it, the more curious Si Wen beca. She pressed her face against Lin Xi’s and cooed, "Let see! Please!"
Xue Yang stood in the hallway, his gaze falling through the window just in ti to catch the scene: two gorgeous girls in their loungewear, their faces pressed together...
This mont is a visual feast.
He abruptly withdrew his gaze and looked off into the distance.
What a scene... How should I put it? This winter doesn’t seem so cold anymore.
Inside the room, the two girls huddled excitedly over a phone, as if sharing a secret.
For Lin Xi, sharing the racy scenes she and her boyfriend wrote with her best friend was just as thrilling as writing them with Xue Yang in the first place.
For Si Wen, when you’re so hooked on a novel that you’re dying to know what happens next, and you suddenly discover the author is right beside you and you can get a sneak peek of the plot...
This is just too aweso.
"So *this* is how you two write the novel."
"What do you think? Isn’t it great?"
"It’s amazing! More, more!"
Lin Xi proudly tucked her phone away. "I’ll write more when I have ti. Right now, there’s sothing more important to do."
Si Wen glanced out the window, where Xue Yang was standing in the corridor with his hands in his pockets, radiating a sort of aloof nobility.
It’s said that at the tender age of first love, you should never et soone too stunning, because you might never et anyone better.
Si Wen hadn’t quite understood that saying before, but now... she thought she did.
Si Wen leaned closer to Lin Xi. "Be honest, have you two... um?"
They’re so skilled at writing those spicy scenes. Claiming no practical experience would hardly be convincing.
Si Wen suspected Lin Xi wasn’t telling her the whole truth.
Lin Xi lowered her head slightly. "Honestly, no."
"No?"
"Well... when we first started writing, we did rehearse things."
Si Wen’s eyes sparkled. "You rehearsed? No wonder it seems so real. Give the details of this rehearsal!"
"..."
Lin Xi was so mortified she wanted the ground to swallow her whole.
"We... we just did everything a couple would do. But we never went all the way, that’s all."
"To do all that and still not take the final step... Wow, Xue Yang is incredible. But it also proves he truly loves you."
Lin Xi nodded slightly. She had always believed that Xue Yang loved her.
"So, do you plan to give yourself to him before you leave, like the main characters in the novel?"
"I really want to, but Xue Yang won’t agree. He says that because he loves , he wants to be absolutely sure, and he also wants to get my family’s approval."
"And do you think your dad would ever let you be together? Your family backgrounds are worlds apart. Besides, given your situation, finding a partner isn’t just about liking soone. Their family background, character, education, and so on all have to be up to par. Most importantly, they must be beneficial to the family business. Our lives are predetermined from the mont we’re born. Your status dictates the sacrifices you have to make."
"I know. That’s why I’m going to work hard to get my dad’s approval. I believe that if Dad ets Xue Yang, he’ll like him, too. He’s just that outstanding."
Every ti she talked about Xue Yang, Lin Xi seed to transform. She glowed with an inner light, radiating happiness.
"Where are you two planning to go this afternoon?"
"We already made plans. We’re going to ride a Ferris wheel, see a movie, and just wander the streets... There are so, so many things we want to do..."
The thought of her imminent separation from Xue Yang made the light in Lin Xi’s eyes gradually dim.
Ti, why do you pass so quickly? If only a day had 48 hours. No, the more hours in a day, the better.
"I want to go, too."
"..."
Given her friend’s enthusiasm, Lin Xi couldn’t bring herself to refuse. What was supposed to be a date for two ultimately beca an outing for three.
"I’ll go get Xue Yang and bring him in. It’s too cold for him to be waiting outside."
Lin Xi jogged out of the room.
"Xue Yang, let’s go out!"
"Okay."
Xue Yang and Lin Xi went inside.
"I had soone prepare so clothes. Let’s go change."
Si Wen pulled Lin Xi into a bedroom, while Xue Yang went back to his room to change as well.
Inside the room, Si Wen opened the wardrobe, revealing two Lolita dresses. One was red, the other white.
"These are... Lolita dresses!"
Lin Xi hadn’t worn one in so long she’d nearly forgotten what it felt like.
Si Wen placed her hands on Lin Xi’s shoulders. "Since this is a farewell, we have to show him our most beautiful selves."
"You’re right! Si Wen, thank you!"
"You’re welco. Just go easy on the PDA, okay? Now, let help you get dressed."
"Okay."
Lin Xi slipped out of her loungewear, revealing her perfect figure to Si Wen.
Even as a girl, Si Wen was a little flustered by the sight of Lin Xi’s flawless physique.
"It’s hard to imagine how Xue Yang could see you like this and still hold back."
"Si Wen, stop it!"
"A beautiful body is ant to be admired. Besides, it’s just the two of us here. What are you afraid of? Don’t you want to see the look on Xue Yang’s face when he..." Si Wen gave her a suggestive look.
"I do."
"Well, there you go. Anyway, since this is your last date with him, let’s not overthink it. Let’s just focus on looking as beautiful as possible."
"Okay."

After changing his clothes, Xue Yang waited quietly in the living room.
It was as if the heavens knew they were about to part ways. Around four or five that afternoon, the sky darkened. After holding back for half an hour, it finally began to snow lightly.
Snowflakes fluttered down, slowly accumulating on the ground. Before long, the entire world was cloaked in a layer of white.
It was beautiful.
"Xue Yang."
Hearing her voice, Xue Yang turned. The mont he saw her, he froze.
What a sight.
Lin Xi stood before him, dressed in a red Lolita outfit. Her shoulder-length hair had been styled into an updo, adorned with accessories that matched her dress perfectly.
The first ti Xue Yang had t Lin Xi, she had been wearing a beautiful Lolita dress, looking like a lost Disney princess on the run whom he’d found and brought ho. He had always thought Lin Xi in pink was the pinnacle of beauty, but he never imagined that in red, she could be even more stunning. She was breathtakingly, almost inhumanly, beautiful.
Beautiful... like a celestial fairy who has descended to earth.
Seeing Xue Yang’s continued silence, Lin Xi grew a little nervous. "Xue Yang, do I look good?"
"You look very beautiful."
