Chapter 155
Xiao Yi and Li Lingyuan indulged in the sweetness and joy of love amidst the tide of modern life. One day, they walked into a bustling arcade together. Xiao Yi curiously surveyed the various gaming machines, their neon lights flashing around them, like a child entering a new and exciting world.
Li Lingyuan couldn't help but find him amused. She gently pulled Xiao Yi's hand and led him to the dance machine, a challenging glint in her eyes: "Xiao Yi, look at this dance machine! It's quite popular in this modern world. Do you have the guts to compete with me?" Xiao Yi looked down at the arrow-covered dance machine panel. Although he felt a little nervous, seeing Li Lingyuan's expectant eyes, he responded without hesitation: "Why not? As long as it has something to do with you, I'm willing to do my best."
As the music started, Li Lingyuan took the lead, her figure as graceful as a swallow, her feet leaping and spinning on the dance machine pedals like a nimble elf, each movement perfectly timed to the beat, drawing many nearby to stop and watch, each one casting admiring glances. Xiao Yi watched from the side, awestruck, but not to be outdone. He took a deep breath, stepped into the dance machine area, and stared intently at the panel. At first, his movements were a bit stiff and clumsy, always a beat behind the times, but he quickly adjusted. With his ancient agility and exceptional sense of rhythm, he gradually caught up to the rhythm of the music, his movements becoming increasingly smooth and natural.
At the end of the song, Li Lingyuan panted slightly, her cheeks flushed. She looked at Xiao Yi with a hint of provocation in her eyes: "I didn't expect you to learn so quickly, but don't get complacent, this is just the beginning." Xiao Yi wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and replied with a sly smile: "Lingyuan, your dance may be beautiful, but I won't give up easily. In the next round, I will make you look at me with new eyes."
They played a few more rounds, their laughter echoing through the arcade. After leaving the arcade, it was getting dark, and the two of them strolled along the brightly lit streets. The street food stalls exuded an enticing aroma, and Xiao Yi's stomach growled unnaturally. He scratched his head sheepishly. Li Lingyuan chuckled, "Let's go try some of these modern delicacies."
They stopped in front of a snack stand and ordered a few snacks. Xiao Yi looked at the strange-shaped food in his hand and took a bite out of curiosity. In an instant, all kinds of novel flavors spread in his mouth, and his eyes lit up: "Lingyuan, the taste of this food is very unique. It is very different from the ancient dishes, but it has its own flavor." Li Lingyuan looked at his satisfied look, her heart filled with joy. She picked up a skewer and handed it to Xiao Yi's mouth: "Then try this." Xiao Yi opened his mouth and took a bite. His lips accidentally touched Li Lingyuan's fingers. Their eyes met, and an ambiguous spark instantly ignited. Li Lingyuan's face heated up slightly, and Xiao Yi took her hand and squeezed it gently: "The deliciousness of this skewer, plus your feeding, is unparalleled in the world."
After returning home, Li Lingyuan went into the bedroom to change clothes. Xiao Yi leaned against the bedroom door, a hint of teasing in his eyes: "Lingyuan, do you need my help?" Li Lingyuan picked up a pillow and threw it at him: "You wish, go out and wait." Xiao Yi smiled and caught the pillow, but did not intend to leave. He looked at Li Lingyuan's back as she selected clothes in front of the wardrobe, and a surge of love surged in his heart. He said slowly: "Lingyuan, do you know that no matter what you wear, you are the most beautiful scenery in my eyes." Li Lingyuan's hand paused among the clothes, his heart beating like a deer, but he said: "You always talk nonsense."
After changing, they sat on the living room sofa and watched a romantic movie together. As the scene of the film's protagonists kissing passionately appeared, Xiao Yi turned to look at Li Lingyuan, his eyes filled with affection and longing. He slowly approached Li Lingyuan and whispered, "Lingyuan, I want to be close to you like this, too." Li Lingyuan's heartbeat suddenly quickened. She closed her eyes slightly and took Xiao Yi's kiss. The kiss was gentle and lingering, as if time had stopped, and the only sounds in the world were their breathing and heartbeats.
After the kiss, Li Lingyuan leaned in Xiao Yi's arms, drawing circles on his chest with her fingers, and whispered, "Xiao Yi, I really hope we can be happy like this forever." Xiao Yi hugged her tightly, resting his chin on the top of her head: "We will. I will spend my whole life protecting you and will not let you come to any harm. Whether it was a thousand years ago or in this modern world, you are the most precious existence in my heart."
In this ordinary yet surprising modern life, their love is like a rushing river, flowing with endless sweetness and warmth. Every moment is filled with love, and every interaction brings their hearts closer, weaving their romantic chapter in the long river of time, which will never end.
