"Xin!!" Luoluo shouted while running towards Xin and the others.
"Luoluo." Xin said, smiling and walking towards her.
"Xin, are you alright?"
"I am, I'm fine. I promised you didn't I."
"Xin... thank goodness, you're okay." She said, smiling and hugging him.
"I kept my promise, Luoluo."
"I know."
"Ahem! We have guests."
"Guests?" Luoluo asked.
"Tch..." Feng clicked his tongue while looking away.
"Oh, father-in-law." Luoluo said, bowing to Master Lin.
"Luoluo, you've grown a lot."
"Thanks, father-in-law."
"I'll be with your dad. Later then."
"Mmn."
"Luoluo." Xin called, taking her hand.
"Xin."
"Let's go have a chat." He said smiling as he dragged her towards his room.
"W-wait! Xin..."
*Damn that bastard, acting all lovey dovey.*
"Brother Feng, don't be too mad. We'll get him." Que said.
"Fuck off, you couldn't even beat him during the tournament and you think you can help me."
"Ugh..."
*It's not like you beat him either.*
"Hmph, they can act all happy now but I'm afraid it won't last, hehe."
"What?!"
"Don't worry, it'll be just for few years. I'll be back right away. And when I come back I promise that we'd get married." Xin said as Luoluo looked away.
"Xin..."
"Hmm?"
*They'll be many girls in the martial arts academy, I'm sure of it. Even Yang Xia would be there.* She thought, biting her lips.
"It's nothing, I wish you luck in the academy." She said, standing from his bed.
"Luoluo wait." He said, grabbing her hand.
"I'm okay, I can wait for a few years."
"Well... if you don't want me to I won't go. It's not like there's anything special I want to do there."
"..."
"Luoluo?"
"No, I think it's better you go."
"Are you sure?"
"Don't worry, I'll trust you."
"Okay!"
"I'll be leaving." She said as he dragged her back, making her fall on his lap.
"Luoluo."
"W-wait! Xin!"
"There's tears in your eyes. You're not okay."
"Xin..."
"Okay, how about this..."
"Eh?"
"Let's get married before I leave. I swear I won't stay in bed with another woman."
*I can't promise that I won't look at another woman, there are plenty of beautiful women in this town! But yeah, i won't cheat.*
"Xin..." She called as he smiled at her.
"Do you trust me now?" He asked as she smiled and pressed her lips against his.
"Mmn!" She said excitedly before she up and left.
"Wait! Eh?!"
"Damnnn!!!! Why'd she leave after that?!!"
"I felt it! I felt something soft against my lips just now! Argh!!! I'm burning with energy!!!"
"Shut the fuck up Xin!"
"Ho...? So that's what you guys decided on. I don't have a problem with that but you'll have to tell your dad about that."
"Ha... there's no time, the entrance test is in a few weeks time. I'll just write a letter to him."
"That's good, that means this marriage ceremony will have to be fast."
"No need for something big."
"No, it's going to be big. It's the marriage ceremony of my beloved baby girl."
"Uh... either way, I'll be preparing for the entrance exams."
"Good luck."
"What?! I can't believe Xin decided that on his own." Feng said.
"You'll be attending, won't you?" Master Lin asked.
"Dad, I thought you were going to advice Master Yu to let me marry Luoluo since Xin would be leaving for the academy."
"I did tell him about that, but he told me that he's okay with Xin. He said that they all trust him. If you want to get her, you'll do that without my interference. I'm not attending the ceremony." Master Lin said before walking out.
"Tch, damn that bastard!!"
"Haha, you're finally married, Xin." Qin said, laughing while slapping his back.
"Can you not cause me pain?!"
"Hahaha, I was just so happy. You see... I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you in the past. I was forced to do all those things." He said, looking down.
*What did he do in the past?*
"But look, your bride is a really beautiful lady. I'm afraid people will come for you."
"Haha, I'll kill anyone who comes for her, and I mean it."
"Whoa Whoa, why'd you get all serious all of a sudden?"
"Xin!" Hao shouted before slapping Xin's back.
"Ah... Brother Hao. That hurt..."
"It's your ceremony. Where's your bride?"
"She's with some friends."
"Oh?"
"I'll have to sleep early. Tomorrow's the test."
"Yeah, see you later."
"I can't believe you'll be off to the academy. I wish you well."
"Thanks, dude."
"Yeah, I'm sure you know this, but my cousin is there too."
"Cousin? Oh, yeah."
"She has been asking of you since, I hope you guys can continue being friends."
"Of course, why not?"
*I'm sorry I don't know your cousin😑"
"I'll be going now. Good luck in your exam."
"Yeah!"
"It's finally quiet..." Xin sighed as he laid on his bed."
"Aren't you glad you came here? You even got yourself a bride."
"For real, I can't believe all this is happening. But... I'm glad. This place is way better than where I'm from."
"HAHA. But do you plan on just sleeping?"
"Well, yeah, I don't know how tough the exams are."
"Well you know..."
"Oh! I get what you mean. I better stay awake and practice more since I don't know if the exams will be hard."
"Ha... what a doof."
"Huh?"
"I think I'm well prepared for tomorrow, I'm still in the late Accumulation stage, though."
"You've actually made progress. Some cultivators can't reach the late stage in just a week."
"Xin?" Luoluo called.
"Luoluo." He called, running towards the door.
"You're still awake." She said, her face a bit red.
"Yeah, come on in." He said, opening the door widely.
"Thanks."
"Well it's about time!!"
*Shut it.*
*I wonder what she wants.*
"Xin..."
"Hmm?"
"Good luck in your exams tomorrow."
"Yeah."
*I suddenly feel like not entering the academy. I mean, look... who wants to leave such a cute bride all by herself?*
"Right? But you must go, I'm sorry but you must."
"Ha..." He sighed as he grabbed her hand suddenly, which made her flinch.
"I'll do well tomorrow." He said.
"Mmn." She said, nodding before resting on his shoulder.
...🦅...
*Hold up!! What's going on here? The atmosphere here is suddenly becoming unbearable. I mean, we've been this way for a while!* Xin thought.
"Yawn... I'm getting quite bored. Goodnight."
*Wait!! I need help.*
"Do yourself"
"Huh?"
*It's getting late, I don't think she would want to go back.*
"Luoluo..."
"Hmm?"
"Would you... want to sleep together?"
"Mmn." She answered.
*Alright!!!* He thought as they laid beside each other.
*Hmm... is she asleep?*
He looked at her face and noticed her eyes shut.
"Well, yeah, that's my fault."
"Argh! Damn you, Lin Xin, you're such a coward." He said, rolling on the bed.
*W-well, her hair looks beautiful. I'll just touch it for a while.* he thought, taking her hair in his hand.
*Oh my God, so soft...☺️*
"I think this much is okay, I mean, we're married." Xin said, sitting up and kissing her on her forehead.
"Good night." He said before covering himself with the sheets.
*M-m-mmmmm...* Luoluo thought, squeezing the sheets.
*Just as I thought I'm not ready for this. I'm such a coward!* She thought, looking at Xin as he slept.
"Good night." She said before giving him a good night kiss.
