367: Girl who fell in love
The next morning, as golden sunlight spilled into the room, Lin Zifeng opened his eyes. After a night of sweet dreams, he subconsciously reached out his hand.
Supple black hair slid from his arm, and a flawless, pretty face appeared before his eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up into a handsome smile.
As he moved, Li Yanran also slowly opened her beautiful large eyes. Seeing Lin Zifeng so close at hand, she broke into a smile as bright as a delicate flower.
The two looked at each other and smiled. Without a word, Li Yanran leaned in and pecked him on the corner of his mouth, giggling as she said, "Darling, it feels so good to be able to see you the moment I wake up."
Lin Zifeng stroked Li Yanran's hair and said tenderly, "You worked hard last night. It's still early, not even ten o'clock yet. Why don't you sleep a bit longer?"
"I'm already awake. Xiao Liang probably won't get up until noon. To keep him from noticing anything, let's freshen up, go out to eat something, and then I'll send you back to the Party School!"
"Doesn't your class three have a gathering tonight? As the Class Monitor, shouldn't you head back early to organize things at the scene?"
Li Yanran said considerately.
And so, the two of them got up together, freshened up, and walked out of the room.
Seeing Li Yanran walking a bit awkwardly, Lin Zifeng said softly with some heartache, "Yanran, are you uncomfortable? I'll buy you some medicine in a bit!"
Hearing Lin Zifeng's words, Li Yanran gave him a charming roll of her eyes and said coquettishly, "Now you know how to be protective of me? What were you doing last night?"
"No need to buy medicine. I'll be fine once I get used to it."
The two of them walked out of the clubhouse while chatting in low voices.
Arriving at the parking lot outside, Li Yanran handed him the bentley car keys and said, "You drive. It's a bit inconvenient for me."
Lin Zifeng agreed, took the keys, and walked toward the driver's seat.
They drove to an upscale Chinese restaurant and walked inside after getting out of the car.
Their arrival drew many gazes. A waiter approached with a face full of smiles. "Hello, Sir and Madam. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Arrange an undisturbed Private Room for us, and bring us four of your specialty dishes and one nutritious soup."
Li Yanran said directly.
The waiter agreed and led them toward a Private Room.
Before long, the waiter brought the four dishes and one soup into the Private Room.
After the waiter left, only the two of them remained in the Private Room. Lin Zifeng dropped his practice of keeping a distance from Li Yanran in public and attentively served her a bowl of soup.
As he placed it before her, he said, "Have a bowl of soup first to warm your stomach, Yanran."
Li Yanran nodded obediently, picked up the soup spoon, and began to sip the soup in small mouthfuls.
The two of them ate while talking softly, the Private Room filled with an atmosphere of deep affection.
Li Yanran, who had never been in a relationship before, was now like a little girl who had fallen in love. Her eyes were filled with tender passion, as if they could hold nothing else besides Lin Zifeng.
The two didn't drink. Under normal circumstances, they would have finished eating in less than half an hour.
However, this lunch took them a full hour. By the time they settled the bill and walked out of the Chinese restaurant, it was already past twelve o'clock.
The two got back into the car. This time, Li Yanran drove. After a morning of adjustment, she was no longer hindered.
"Zifeng, I know you kept refusing my weekend invitations before because you wanted to keep your distance from me."
"You can't refuse anymore. I'll come to pick you up on time next Friday afternoon."
Li Yanran said while driving.
"Aren't you afraid Xiao Liang and the others will discover our relationship?"
Lin Zifeng asked with a chuckle, avoiding a direct answer.
"How could I let others disturb our world for two? I'll come to pick you up secretly by myself when the time comes."
"You didn't think that I had no other private residences to go to besides the clubhouse, did you?"
"My family knows about most of my properties, but I have one property that no one knows about except me."
"It's not that I intentionally hid it from my family, it's just that I'm a girl! There are times when I'm in a bad mood, and I used to go there alone for a few days to adjust my feelings."
"It's perfect now. From now on, that place can be our world for two."
"Keep the secret with me from now on and don't tell anyone about this place, okay?"
Li Yanran said with a face full of smiles.
Lin Zifeng nodded and said, "I'll listen to you, Yanran."
They talked all the way, and Li Yanran drove the car to a spot about a hundred meters from the Party School gate.
After Li Yanran pulled the car over to the side of the road, Lin Zifeng unfastened his seatbelt. Seeing that Li Yanran had also unfastened hers, he hurriedly said, "Yanran, don't get out of the car."
"Don't you know how eye-catching you are? If my classmates returning to the Party School see you, it'll stir up their gossip again. How would I explain it then?"
"I'll take that as a compliment."
After Li Yanran said this sweetly, she stopped her movement to get out and reached out to grab Lin Zifeng's arm.
Lin Zifeng subconsciously turned back. Just as he turned his head, Li Yanran proactively offered a sweet kiss.
The two kissed passionately for nearly three minutes, not letting go of each other until their breathing became increasingly hurried.
"Drive slowly on the way back, and pay attention to safety." Li Yanran nodded with a slightly flushed face, and Lin Zifeng quickly opened the car door and got out.
Li Yanran's gaze followed Lin Zifeng's figure until he disappeared into the Party School entrance. Only then did she withdraw her gaze and start the vehicle to leave.
Lin Zifeng returned to his dormitory and took a nap until past two o'clock. After a simple wash, he sat at his desk and began to check stocks.
At five o'clock sharp, he closed his laptop, stood up, walked out of the dormitory, and headed toward the cafeteria.
When he entered the cafeteria, staff had already pushed long tables together in a corner to form three large tables. Some exquisite cold dishes were already laid out on them.
At this time, Vice Class Monitor Jiang Shuhua and several students were already helping out in the cafeteria. Seeing Lin Zifeng walk in, they all smiled and greeted him.
After Lin Zifeng responded to each of them, he joined them in arranging the chairs.
Next, the students of class three arrived one after another. A small box truck stopped outside the cafeteria, and class teacher Li Jiaqiang walked in, calling for people to help move the drinks.
Vice Class Monitor Wang Li took a few students to help.
Soon everything was ready, and the cafeteria staff brought out the remaining hot dishes.
