"Lu Xi!" Xiao Ya immediately turned around and raised her voice in a yell.

At this, the people in the living room were startled by this voice and all turned their heads over to look.

"What's wrong?" Lu Xi frowned as he casually replied but did not get up, still clutching the phone where he had finally pressed the call button on it.
He had not heard Xiao Ya's reply but the phone call had already gone through.

"Hello." That familiar voice sounded through the phone and the girl's tender and soft voice could be heard at the edge of his ears and his heart, which had initially been melancholy but had all of a sudden softened. Lu Xi could not help but curl the edge of his lips yet he restrained his voice as he asked, "little lady, do you still remember what day it is today?"

"Today?" The person on the opposite end of the line seemed to have been smiling as her voice swiftly answered, "I do, of course, it's your birthday."

She did know? Lu Xi slightly raised an eyebrow. Since she did not forget, then had she done this on purpose?

"That's right, yep, I did do it on purpose." Su Jin seemed to have known what he was thinking as she laughed.

This girl-- Lu Xi gently laughed; as long as she did not forget about it, then he was content. Then, just as he had been wanting to say something, the girl's voice came through the phone once more.

"Come out here."

Come out here?

Lu Xi was startled.

Not go out but come out here...... Just now Xiao Ya had yelled for him, could it be......

He immediately raised his head as he followed the crowd's gaze to look towards the door. Yet due to the people in the hall blocking his line of vision, he could only see Lu Jing who was standing in front of Xiao Ya.

That distinct and handsome pair of eyes stared as the hem of dark red clothes came into view through that slight crack of space between them. Thinking of the possibility, at that very moment, Lu Xi's heart jumped a beat.

That slender body leapt up and quickly walked over.

When the girl in her dark red capelet coat came into view, Lu Xi's footsteps suddenly stopped.

In his heart, it seemed that his imagined hopes and expectations had been confirmed and a countless number of complex feelings burst out from within as though it flowed throughout his body.

It was undeniably indescribable and unexplainable.

He stood merely a few paces away from her. As if in a daze, he gazed at her with a flickering gaze in the depths of his peach blossom eyes, yet he was completely unwilling to even blink them.

Time seemed to have slowed down a little as all surrounding sounds around them seem to fade away in that instant. It was only that little girl in her red coat in the embrace of the extremely mild sunlight of the winter day and all over her body, she brought along with her the remnants of the wind and snow as she walked straight up until she was right in front of him.

Fixated, she looked at him for a short while. Suddenly, she curled her lips in a laugh and at that moment, he had even thought that he had heard the sound of flowers blooming.

"This expression......" Su Jin's head was skewed to the side as she looked at this man who had evidently received an excessively large shock, "are you not welcoming me then?"
