He lowered his head and cracked a slight smile at the thought of something. He reached out and took the pair of male slippers from the rack.
Right at that moment, two girls who appeared to be university students walked past. They looked like they came to shop in the city over the weekend.
One of them overheard Wei Zilin"s laugh and paused in disbelief. Her eyes widened.
“What"s wrong?” Her friend pulled on her arm and asked.
“I… I think that man"s voice sounded familiar. He sounds just like the voice of my voiceover liege that I love so much,” the girl replied.
Advertis.e.m.e.ntHer friend replied, “Oh, do you mean Yu Linling? Could you be mistaken? It can"t be such a coincidence. That laugh was so soft, I could hardly even hear it. I think you might have misheard.”
“You think so? Well, that"s possible,” the girl scratched her head.
“I think you"re just heartbroken after finding out your idol is in a relations.h.i.+p. That"s probably why you thought you heard him,” Her friend pushed the shopping cart forward. They were walking in the opposite direction from Wei Zilin and their voices got further and further away.
Wei Zilin paused and could not help laughing. He took both pairs of slippers and went to pay for them.
Xu Moyan had packed all the ingredients for the cake into a bag. She got ready to bring them over to Wei Zilin"s house.
It was the first time she was going over to his place and she was feeling incredibly nervous. She still was not entirely comfortable with the idea.
Zheng Yuntong had just finished putting on her makeup. Shen Zongyi had been working overtime with Wei Zilin and was on his way to see Zheng Yuntong after work as well.
Advertis.e.m.e.ntZheng Yuntong was now looking down from the balcony. The window was slightly ajar, and the cold wind entered the house from outside, but she did not feel cold at all.
When Wei Zilin arrived, Shen Zongyi had also just arrived not long ago. While parking his car, he saw Shen Zongyi was on a phone call with Zheng Yuntong.
Wei Zilin immediately parked right behind Shen Zongyi"s car and walked toward him after he stepped out of the car.
Shen Zongyi hung up and raised an eyebrow at Wei Zilin, “Congratulations, boss, you"re finally saying goodbye to the single life.”
Wei Zilin tidied up his appearance, he looked especially elegant. His perfect, slender fingers, exposed as he straightened his tie and said, “What are your plans with Zheng Yuntong later?”
“I"ll let her decide because I didn"t get to spend Valentine"s Day with her. Today"s date is to make up for it,” Shen Zongyi said. He worried that Wei Zilin would suggest spending the day with them.
Wei Zilin did not look like someone with much experience in this department. If he decided to stick to both of them during the date, it would ruin the atmosphere for him and Zheng Yuntong.
Advertis.e.m.e.ntThat was why Shen Zongyi immediately added, “It"s your first official date with Xu Moyan. It would be better for us to leave you two alone.”
Wei Zilin scoffed in his heart. He knew very well that Shen Zongyi was trying to pull away from him and Xu Moyan.
The thought of Shen Zongyi getting in a relations.h.i.+p before him and acting all high-and-mighty about it, parading his happiness in his face, made Wei Zilin so badly want to put an end to it.
Wei Zilin pulled a smile that got wider by the minute, “We"ve already made plans. I"m taking Moyan home to watch a movie. She"ll let me catch up on some sleep first while she finishes baking a chocolate cake. We"ll have the cake while we watch the movie at home together.”
Wei Zilin straightened his posture proudly. It was his first day in a relations.h.i.+p and he was taking his girlfriend home. "You"re envious, aren"t you, my friend"
Shen Zongyi, “…”
He was definitely envious. He had been dating Zheng Yuntong for quite a while and still did not have the courage to take her back to his home.
Advertis.e.m.e.ntFor a moment, he gave Wei Zilin a look that said, “You are truly shameless.”
Wei Zilin, “…”
Xu Moyan and Zheng Yuntong came down at the same time and saw the two men standing together. It was interesting to see that fate had turned out this way for them.
This was the first time Xu Moyan appeared in front of her friends as Wei Zilin"s girlfriend and she was feeling a little unnerved about it.
The white snow may have melted in the middle of the road but there were still mounds of white snow heaped up next to the two men. No one had stepped on it yet, so it looked especially soft and fluffy.
Wei Zilin stood by the road as he was surrounded by the white snow. He looked handsome and made exceptional eye-candy.
Zheng Yuntong subtly poked at Xu Moyan and threw a teasing look at her.
Xu Moyan blushed as she looked toward Wei Zilin. He was smiling with a warm and exquisite expression on his face as he looked at her.
Advertis.e.m.e.ntThe sun was s.h.i.+ning on his dark hair and black coat. A fading golden light bounced off him as his fair skin looked like it was covered by a thin layer of gold satin silk. He looked so handsome that it was almost unreal.
Wei Zilin walked over to Xu Moyan before she had even acknowledged him.
Zheng Yuntong did not want to be the third wheel and immediately left to look for Shen Zongyi.
Wei Zilin was very pleased with Zheng Yuntong"s initiative to move away. He went to hold Xu Moyan"s hand.
He had left his gloves in the car. Though because his hands were kept in his coat"s pockets the whole time, they still felt nice and warm. Xu Moyan"s hands were really cold in contrast.
She was not someone who could take the cold. Her body could be said to be on the cooler side, which was why it tortured her every time she got her period. When the weather was cold, so were her hands and feet.
Wei Zilin held her hands tight and casually placed them into his coat pocket. “Did you sleep well last night?”
After experiencing last night"s intimacy and confession, Xu Moyan was still not used to it despite it already being one night. She stuttered a little in reply, “It… It was okay.”
“Is that so?” Wei Zilin sounded a little disappointed.
Why was that? Did he not want her to have a good rest?
Xu Moyan looked up curiously at Wei Zilin.
“You know, I didn"t sleep well last night because I couldn"t stop thinking of you. I missed you so badly and I thought you would not sleep well because you missed me too,” Wei Zilin lowered his head slightly and spoke in a gentler tone. His clear, warm voice quietly echoed in the wind.
The disappointment in his tone was obvious, to the point of sounding upset. It seemed as if he felt Xu Moyan did not place much importance on him.
Xu Moyan did not want him to get the wrong idea. In her heart, he was more important to him than anything else.
Xu Moyan held onto his hands tightly as she slowly forgot about her nervousness, “It"s not like that. Actually I… I didn"t sleep very well either. I tossed around in bed for a long time and couldn"t fall asleep. When I closed my eyes, I…”
She could not continue.
“What happened when you closed your eyes?” Wei Zilin was not about to let this go easily. He held on tight to her hands with a firm but gentle grip.
His handsome, exquisite face lowered down closer to hers. The breath of his voice blew onto her face along with the cold wind.
It was indescribable, the way the hot and cold air mixed together in the wind.
Xu Moyan"s lips moved, but she was too embarra.s.sed to continue.
Wei Zilin lowered his face even closer, his nose rubbed against the tip of her nose. It looked like he was about to kiss her on the lips. Xu Moyan immediately stepped away as they were in public.
The moment she stepped back, Wei Zilin immediately grabbed her by the waist and pulled her back toward him. He even took the opportunity to lock her in his arms. They were now more intimate than before.
Xu Moyan could only allow him to hold on to her waist. He was wearing a really thick coat and Xu Moyan held on to it—she felt her whole body burning up.
“What happened when you closed your eyes?” Wei Zilin asked again as he got closer. His lips almost brushed her skin. He was not about to let it go.
He knew she could not resist his voice, so he took the opportunity to attack this weakness of hers and did his best to seduce her.
It was a simple question but when coupled with his voiceover technique it sounded clear and magnetic. The voice surrounded her as it rang about her like the wind. It made her ears go red as she trembled.
Xu Moyan wanted to cover her ears, but he grabbed her hands and she could not shake him off.
Her red ears made Wei Zilin laugh playfully. His voice burned like boiling water, scalding her ears.
Wei Zilin quickly kissed her on the ears before quickly moving away. It was so fast that it felt like she imagined it.
Even if Xu Moyan wanted to retaliate, she was not given enough time to do so.
She could not stop Wei Zilin"s continuous "hara.s.sment". She could only close her eyes and reply quietly, “I couldn"t stop thinking about you.”
As expected, she heard Wei Zilin"s satisfied laugh as he pulled her towards the car.
Xu Moyan opened her eyes and realized that Shen Zongyi and Zheng Yuntong had long disappeared.
She had forgotten all about Shen Zongyi and Zheng Yuntong while being teased by Wei Zilin.
Now that she realized they had both slipped away, she heaved a sigh of relief. Otherwise, they would have witnessed everything that had just unfolded.
Wei Zilin personally opened the door for her and helped her into the car. When he moved into the driver"s seat, she saw that Wei Zilin was smiling.
Xu Moyan was curious about his smile. Was there something he was happy about?
She later heard Wei Zilin said, “When I picked you up from your office the last time, I wanted to open the car door for you as a romantic gesture. I didn"t get to do it then, but I did today.
The way he talked about it; it was like he had completed a major goal on his bucket list.
