"Let the past drift with the wind~~"
"Let it carry away the pain, carry away the sorrow~~"
"Bringing back the dreams of dusk~~"
"Flowers bloom and fall~~"
"Clouds will drift away~~"
"Spreading across the sky~~"
"And you smile beside me~~"
…..
As soon as Su Fan and the other two stepped into the villa, a faint and distant... singing voice reached their ears.
φ(0￣) La la la _φ(￣0￣)′
That familiar voice was deep and magnetic, like a flowing stream—clear and full of emotion.
All three of them were stunned.
Chen Kexin and Su Fan were the first to react. Having experience, they immediately recognized that it was Lin Xuan singing.
Only Bai Susu...
In an instant, she was captivated by the intoxicating melody, completely entranced.
It sounds so beautiful~~
Who exactly is singing?
And this song... why have I never heard it before? But this voice sounds so familiar...
The more Bai Susu listened, the more familiar it seemed. She felt like she had heard it somewhere before.
"Why does it sound so much like Lin Xuan's voice?"
"Impossible, I don't think it's possible!"
"Lin Xuan is clearly tone-deaf. There's no way he could sing something this beautiful..."
She recalled the scene from her birthday when Lin Xuan had sung a birthday song for her with his awful, duck-like voice.
Bai Susu was 95% sure that the person singing could not possibly be Lin Xuan.
But in the next second, she was puzzled again...
If it wasn't him, then why did this voice sound so much like his?
At this moment.
Chen Kexin, who was beside her, grabbed her arm and hurriedly pulled her upstairs.
"Let's go quickly! That guy, Onii-chan, is secretly singing a new song again while I'm not around~~~"
"(〃＞皿＜) Damn it! And he dares to say he's stuck in a creative block?! He hasn't released a new song for so long...."
"Doesn't he know that his fans are eagerly waiting for new songs every day? Damn you, Onii-chan~~"
"......."
Staring at the little girl's back, recalling her words...
Bai Susu couldn't help but widen her eyes ┌(.Д.)┐, the more she thought about it, the scarier it felt!!!
There was simply too much information in her words.
Was the person singing really Lin Xuan?
And also, fans... creative bottleneck...
New song...
And this familiar-sounding voice...
A shocking thought emerged in Bai Susu's mind...
Could it be that the rising musical genius in recent days, her favorite idol [L]...
Was actually Lin Xuan in disguise?!!
It wasn't until this moment.
That Bai Susu belatedly realized. Σ(⊙▽⊙"a
This singing voice...
Wasn't it exactly the same as [L]'s voice???
Just as this thought flashed through her mind, the two girls had already disappeared at the staircase entrance...
As for Su Fan, who was trailing behind, he tilted his head and pondered for a moment.
In the end, he put his hands in his pockets and slowly followed them up to the second floor.
It had been a while since he last saw his little sister.
It had been too long, and he missed her dearly.
As her older brother, he was worried about his little sister and also wanted to check on her current condition—how well she was recovering...
After all, staying bedridden like this wasn't a good thing, right?
Logically speaking...
Lin Xuan had been treating her for so long; she should have shown some signs of recovery by now...
There was no reason she should still be lying in bed, completely unable to move?!
Could there have been a problem with the treatment? Or had I misjudged things before?
"If massage therapy keeps having no effect..."
"Perhaps I'll have to step in myself. We can't keep dragging this on indefinitely..."
With this thought, Su Fan followed the two girls' footsteps and arrived at a familiar door.
At this moment.
Beautiful singing continuously flowed from the room, and the song had reached its climax...
…..
"I thought I had forgotten how to miss you~~"
"But facing the sunset, I wish you could return to today~~"
"I remember holding your face~~"
"Between my hands~ quietly gazing into your eyes~~"
"Like autumn leaves, gently embracing the whole world~~"
"I want to be by your side~~"
"I want to be by your side~~"
"I want to be by your side~~"
…..
Pushing open the door.
A beautiful musical melody swept towards them.
What met their eyes...
Was a red wedding room filled with a joyous atmosphere, radiating happiness everywhere...
A luxurious crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling, emitting a warm glow, like twinkling stars in the night sky.
The walls were covered with red wallpaper adorned with golden patterns, adding a luxurious and elegant atmosphere to the wedding room.
A red carpet spread across the floor, soft and comfortable, as if unfolding a sea of happiness beneath their feet.
The large red windows were draped with red curtains, embroidered with golden dragon and phoenix patterns.
Sunlight filtered through the curtains, filling the room with warmth and brightness.
Looking outside the window, a beautiful little garden came into view, with blooming flowers and singing birds, as if blessing the newlyweds.
Compared to the simple and plain room they had seen before...
The wedding room now was decorated like a scene from a fairy tale, full of dreamy colors.
This sight made all three of them, including Su Fan, reveal a look of amazement in their eyes.
"So beautiful~~~"
Bai Susu's gaze became dreamy, filled with envy.
The decoration of this room was almost a perfect match to the wedding room she had once fantasized about.
She had imagined more than once, in a wedding room as romantic as this...
Wearing an exquisite wedding dress, accompanied by the prince who deeply loved her.
After making a vow never to part...
She would give her future, her life, and her most precious first time... to him...
Beside her, Chen Kexin's small cherry lips had formed an "O" shape.
"Wow~~"
"I'm so jealous of Oni-chan~~"
"I also want to snuggle with Sister Qingge in such a romantic room~~~"
Both girls were lost in their fantasies due to the wedding room's breathtaking beauty.
Only Su Fan's eyes flickered with something different, even a trace of pain and guilt.
Once again, he remembered the woman who had saved him from the fire five years ago...
She had also placed him in a red room and took care of him for a long time.
But back then, after suffering a great change, his mind had become twisted.
To vent the pain and desire in his heart, he had done something unforgivable to the woman who helped him...
In that very red room, he had ignored her cries... and raped her...
"I'm truly worse than a beast...."
Su Fan was overwhelmed with guilt.
He truly wished to see that benefactor once more, to kneel before her and apologize sincerely, offering her anything she wanted as compensation...
Just as Su Fan was lost in his painful memories, his eyes unfocused!
Bai Susu, unable to hold back, had already turned her gaze toward the wedding bed.
What she saw made her heart ache involuntarily.
At that moment, Lin Xuan was leaning against the pillow, holding a guitar, playing a moving melody.
His gaze remained fixed on the girl lying there, filled with deep affection and tenderness, as if having a silent conversation with her...
"Brother Lin Xuan… the one you love… is not me…"
No need for more words.
Bai Susu's expression was desolate, and in that instant she understood this truth.
Originally, after waiting in vain all night, there had been resentment in her heart, and she'd even had so many things she wanted to question Lin Xuan about...
But when she lifted her head and saw those two pairs of eyes gazing at each other so deeply not far away.
Bai Susu suddenly had nothing left but silence.
The eyes are the windows to the soul; they never lie.
Those two pairs of eyes had already clearly told her a cruel fact....
No matter how much Lin Xuan might have loved her in the past, at least today, the woman he loved was no longer her!
She had already lost.
In this battle of love without smoke or flames...
She had lost to Su Qingge, and she had lost completely, without a shred of dignity....
Thinking of this.
For some reason, Bai Susu felt her nose sting, and she had the urge to cry her heart out.
Especially when her thoughts surged up like a tide....
She thought of the times she and Lin Xuan had spent together, thought of how they had read together, chatted together, and shared their dreams bit by bit...
Those beautiful memories had now become so bitter in her heart.
"Why? Brother Lin Xuan, didn't you say before that you would always protect only me?"
"You big liar! You clearly said I was your forever little piggy girl, that you would be my guardian knight for life!"
"How could you change your heart in such a short time? And become so unfamiliar!"
"Are you really... that gentle Brother Lin Xuan I knew....."
"......"
Bai Susu's emotions were surging violently inside her, and she stood there not knowing what to do.
This was the first time in her life that she had tasted the pain of heartbreak.
Could this be… the so-called love often mentioned in movies?
But why did the protagonists' love always seem so sweet? So joyful?
Yet all I feel right now… is pain?!!
Among the three of them.
Whether it was Su Fan or Bai Susu, both felt different degrees of…
Pain!
It hurt so much!!!
Only the chuunibyou girl Chen Kexin remained carefree, always believing in the philosophy of "Keep smiling, and good things will come naturally."
When she saw Su Qingge open her big, dazzling eyes...
ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ
"Sister Qingge, (^▽^) you're awake~~"
The little loli was overjoyed ╰(°▽°)╯, bouncing happily toward the wedding bed.
︿(￣︶￣)︿ And then— a flying pounce~~
She threw herself onto the bed, pushing Lin Xuan aside, and rubbed her face against Su Qingge's face.
[Kexin, you're here.]
Su Qingge's gaze was gentle as she carefully looked at the little loli lying on top of her.
This was the first time she had seen her since she fell into a coma.
Hmm...
Still so small, so cute, →_→ and so perverted...
Noticing a tiny hand rubbing around her chest, Su Qingge suddenly couldn't hold it in anymore.
Especially with Lin Xuan watching...
She hurriedly glared at the little loli whose hands and feet wouldn't behave, giving her a shame-filled, angry warning.
(－＂－怒).
But her "death glare" had zero intimidation effect.
Instead, Chen Kexin took advantage, planting kisses all over her fair cheeks.
"Sister Qingge, your eyes are so beautiful! You're stealing my soul~~~"
"(?′?‵?) I L??????? Kexin loves you so much~~"
"?(°?‵?′??) Kiss kiss~~ (づ￣3￣)づ╭❤️～"
At this point, Lin Xuan couldn't sit still anymore.
Even he hadn't kissed her like this yet…
And this little brat had jumped ahead of him—way too much!
Did they think he, the legitimate husband, didn't exist???
And she even dared to push him away, bullying an honest man?!
Hmph, this was truly intolerable!!!
With a face full of displeasure, Lin Xuan immediately grabbed the little loli's twin tails, lifting her head high…
"Hey hey hey (#O′), you're committing a crime in front of the husband?! Do you think I don't exist?!"
"Get off immediately, and (??へ??╬) who let you wear your little shoes on the bed? You've dirtied the blanket~~"
"....."
Watching the two of them roughhousing on the bed, Bai Susu's expression grew even more forlorn.
She suddenly realized....
No matter whether it was before or now, when Lin Xuan was with her, he had never shown such a smile.
Come to think of it....
Back then, it seemed she had never cared about Lin Xuan's feelings either, only ever indulging in the gentleness he gave her.
Does this count as..... bringing it all upon myself???
