Chapter 3 - Thank You Uncles, For Your Blessing

The distance between Lin Xing Xue's home and Xiao Tian's house was just about a hundred meters, so they could walk to reach his home.

At that time, they were marching together, and of course, Xiao Tian kept teasing Lin Xing Xue until her face became beet-red like a tomato.

That night, they were delighted. Coupled with the beautiful night, it made the situation even more pleasant for both of them.

The yellow color of the street lights, which emitted light every ten meters, the beautiful flowers on the sidewalk, and the full moon whose light illuminated the night, made the night atmosphere perfect for him.

Of course, it was because he was with a beautiful lady too. If he were alone, the feeling would be different because he couldn't share it with others.

That night, three street vendors were filled with people who were eating or talking. There were rarely cars crossing the road because the road was not the main road, but many people were enjoying the night on their bikes.

Many youngsters and older people were laughing as they enjoyed the beautiful night.

"Little Xue, I'm fortunate to be able to spend this beautiful night with an attractive lady like you," Xiao Tian spoke abruptly.

"Stop calling me little Xue!" Lin Xing Xue hit his chest gently. "Un. Tonight, the atmosphere is so beautiful!"

"Stop hitting me. I'm still hurt right now. How about we hold hands instead?" Xiao Tian stretched out his right hand, giving her a sign to hold his hands.

"I don't want to." Lin Xing Xue turned her head, and once again, a soft smile spread across her face.

When he saw Lin Xing Xue turning her head, Xiao Tian pinched her cheeks gently and laughed. "My little Xue is cute when she behaves like this."

Lin Xing Xue didn't push his hands; instead, she smiled beautifully.

Upon seeing the beautiful smile on her face, Xiao Tian felt as if the time stopped just to let him witness her dazzling smile. The beautiful night further enhanced the beautiful smile on her face, stunned him for several seconds.

After he came to his senses, he said unconsciously, "Little Xue, you're so beautiful,"

"Thank you." Lin Xing Xue covered her mouth and giggled

Xiao Tian was stunned by this because it was the first time Lin Xing Xue didn't tell him to stop calling her little Xue. Usually, she always told him to stop calling her like that even though she was never angry.

Thinking about this, Xiao Tian was thrilled because this was proof that their relationship was getting closer.

Because Xiao Tian and Lin Xin Xue were lovey-dovey like a sweet couple, who was in love, one of the uncles smiled and shouted, "Seeing the couple over there makes this old man feel a little jealous."

"That's right old Ma. They were made for each other. Ahh. It makes this old man thrilled." another uncle added as he looked at Xiao Tian and Lin Xing Xue.

Xiao Tian and Lin Xing Xu, who heard it, stopped their footsteps and turned around. After making sure that they were talking about them, Lin Xing Xue felt a little shy.

As for Xiao Tian, he had a dazzling smile on his face. "Did you hear that? Even they know that we were made for each other."

Upon hearing his words, Lin Xing Xue pinched his waist and answered, "Bad boy! Stop teasing me!"

"But you like bad boys, right?" Xiao Tian uttered as he smiled

Lin Xing Xue kept silent and turned her head to avoid his eyes. However, she failed to hide her blush.

With a happy face, Xiao Tian immediately responded, "Thank you, uncles. My lover is delighted by your words."

After Xiao Tian said that, Lin Xing Xue's face became even redder, and she didn't know what she should do. She wasn't a teenager anymore. However, she couldn't help but be pleased and feel like she was in her teenage years again.

"Treat your girlfriend preciously, young man. Don't make her sad." the uncle spoke as he smiled.

Xiao Tian grabbed Lin Xing Xue's waist with his right hand and replied, "Don't worry uncle, I'll treat my little lover very well and cherish her with all my heart."

"It's good if you understand, young man. Your girlfriend is gorgeous, so I'm sure many men want to snatch her from you. Don't do something that will make you regret later." the other uncle gave Xiao Tian a little advice.

"Uncle, thank you for your advice. I'll keep that in mind." at this moment, Xiao Tian suddenly felt his right hand, which was hugging Lin Xing Xue's waist, being pinched by her. "Little Xue, what are you doing?"

"Of course, I'm pinching your hands." Lin Xing Xue gave an honest answer.

"Oh! So my lover dares to pinch my hands, huh? It seems like I need to punish my lover now." of course, Xiao Tian was joking around when he said that.

Lin Xing Xue, who thought he would do something to her, immediately ran to avoid the punishment.

"Don't run. Let me punish you." Xiao Tian said as he laughed.

"I don't want to. Catch me if you can!" Ling Xing Xue beamed as she kept running.

However, Lin Xing could only run for about four meters before getting caught by Xiao Tian from behind. "I've caught you."

At this moment, Xiao Tian was hugging her from behind.

"Hehe. So, what do you want to do now?" Lin Xing Xue only laughed and didn't try to free herself from his embrace.

"As a punishment, I'll....." Xiao Tian spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "I'll hug you for two minutes."

"Hey. There are many people here. It's embarrassing. Let me go!" even though she said that, but she did nothing. Not only that, she even let him embrace her as if it was normal for him to hug her. While being hugged by Xiao Tian from behind, her face blossomed into a smile.

At this time, Xiao Tian was thrilled. For this reason, a soft smile spread across his face. "Why do we have to feel embarrassing? We're lovers. It's normal for lovers to hug each other, right?"

Lin Xing Xue turned her head to look at his face. "Hey. When did we become lovers?"

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Tian instantly responded, "Earlier yo-"

However, before Xiao Tian had finished his words, another uncle said, "Young man, You seem to be enjoying your time with your lover? Seeing both of you lovey-dovey like this makes me remember my youth with my wife."

Xiao Tian let go of Lin Xing Xue and answered, "Uncle, I hope I can be like you and your wife. Always together until we get old."

Lin Xing Xue immediately lowered her head. She didn't expect that Xiao Tian would say something like that. But deep inside her, she was pleased with his words, and suddenly her face broke into a smile.

"Haha. Good! Young man, I give you my blessing," the uncle responded as he laughed happily. He was delighted after hearing Xiao Tian's words.

"Thank you, uncle." he uttered before returning his attention to Lin Xin Xue. "Alright, let's go to our home,"

Without giving her a warning, Xiao Tian held her right hand.

"It's your home, not ours," Lin Xing Xue tried to release her right hand from his grasp. However, because he was holding her right hand tightly, she was unable to free her right hand, and as a result, she let him do whatever he wanted.

Not long after that, they arrived at Xiao Tian's house. His house was slightly bigger than an ordinary house with a blue color iron fence as high as one and a half meters in front of his home.

As soon as Xiao Tian opened the blue iron fence, he saw a small garden in his house's front yard.

"Mother, I'm home!" Xiao Tian opened the door before turning his head toward Lin Xing Xu. "What are you standing there for? Come in!"

"Excuse me," Lin Xing Xue said shyly.

They immediately headed to the family room. The living room was about 4x6 meters, with a family picture hanging on the walls. There was a 21 inch TV with a purple couch and a small table placed in front of the TV.

At this moment, Xiao Tian still didn't see his mother, but not long after that, a gorgeous mature lady in her mid 30's wearing a blue shirt and white skirt could be seen in his eyes. Even though she was already thirty-five years old, she still had fair skin, long legs, and an elegant figure.

Her hair that draped down her shoulders were slightly curled at the ends. She wore a pair of silver earrings, and there were no wrinkles on her face. She looked like a woman who spent all her time taking care of her appearance. Yes, she was Xiao Tian's mother. Her name was Ye Xueyin.

"Tian, you have returned home?" when Ye Xueyin saw a bandage on Xiao Tian's head, her expression turned anxious, "What happened to you?"

"It's nothing, mother. I'm fine." Xiao Tian answered as he smiled.

At that moment, Lin Xing Xue lowered her head because she felt guilty.

"Really?" Ye Xueyin asked again.

"Yes. I'm fine," Xiao Tian responded as he nodded his head. "Mother, we have a guest."

Upon hearing her son's words, Ye Xueyin looked at Lin Xing Xue and uttered, "Mrs. Lin? It's been a while for you to come over."

"Yes. It's been a while. Sorry to disturb you in the evening, Mrs. Ye," Lin Xing Xue said as she bowed slightly.

"It's fine. Mrs. Lin, please have a seat," Ye Xueyin responded as she smiled.

"Thank you, Mrs. Ye." Lin Xing Xue said before sitting on the couch.
