Chapter 125 - Camping {12}
Xiao Long seemed to be silent on a large rock, and his eyes caught some light flying in front of him. Behind the incredibly dark forest, Xiao Long could see how thousands of fireflies began to pass very beautifully. Immediately Xiao Long smiled faintly, a delightful sight and how happy Qiao Xin was when she saw this.
Xiao Long seemed to be silent, his beautiful smile now slowly fading. He clearly remembered what Xuan Cheng had done to Qiao Xin. Xuan Cheng's attention was truly beyond comprehension to show how much Xuan Cheng liked Qiao Xin, while Xiao Long? Instead of being sweet, he always showed an annoying, rude attitude. Xiao Long is really at a loss now. What should he do to step forward? Stepping forward in the sense that he had to and could do something about his relationship with Qiao Xin because somehow seeing Xuan Cheng's gaze on him, it was as if Xuan Cheng already knew the story about him and Qiao Xin. One thing that was entirely inappropriate for Xiao Long to want Xuan Cheng to do was, do the same thing as what Xuan Cheng had done in the past. Long ago, when Xiao Long fell in love and that love might be monkey love, but for now, Xiao Long would never let his wife be snatched away by any man.
"Xiao Long, where are you?"
Xiao Long seemed to gasp when he heard Qiao Xin's voice from a distance. Why is his wife looking for him? Even though Qiao Xin was injured.. Xiao Long quickly ran in the direction of Qiao Xin's voice, brushing the bushes even though he didn't care how much damage he got now until he met Qiao Xin, who was walking alone with a limp while hugging herself.
And in one fell swoop, Xiao Long immediately carried Qiao Xin, making his wife look shocked beyond measure. Qiao Xin's gaze couldn't leave Xiao Long at all, as if both of them were now on the same beat. Yes, in the moment of love.
"What are you doing?"
"What are you doing?"
They both asked at the same time. They both smiled at each other, then lowered their faces.
"What are you doing here? Your leg is still injured, Qiqi. I don't want the injury to your leg that's almost healed to hurt again because you're hard to tell," Xiao Long said later. He was still where he was, still reluctant to take Qiao Xin to that beautiful place.
"I'm worried about you, you go alone at nights like this who is not worried, I'm afraid that wild animals will eat you in this forest,"
"Tsk! Even I'm much more savage than beasts," Xiao Long chimed in. Qiao Xin frowned.
"What?" Qiao Xin asked. Xiao Long also ignored Qiao Xin's question because he was more interested in what to give to Qiao Xin after this.
"Want to see heaven with me?" take Xiao Long. Qiao Xin seemed to be furrowing her brows. How could it not be? What kind of heaven is Xiao Long referring to in the middle of the forest on a night like this?
"Is there heaven here? In the middle of the forest and at night too?" Qiao Xin asked then, she was doubtful, but she didn't want to disappoint Xiao Long.
"In fact, it's much better if it's getting late."
After saying that, Xiao Long immediately rushed into the forest while carrying Qiao Xin, causing Qiao Xin to hug her tightly for fear of falling. Not long after, both of them were on a relatively large rock, and Xiao Long started to lower Qiao Xin. Qiao Xin looked up at the sky, which at this moment looked so incredibly beautiful and studded with stars, even in the place where Qiao Xin felt the highest she felt like in the vast sky that stood during millions of stars and moon.
"You're right, Xiao Long, this is truly a very beautiful paradise," Qiao Xin muttered. She seemed to raise her hand as if to take one of the stars that were there. "You know, Dad once told me how to achieve a dream. And Dad said if our dreams are like the stars in the sky, even with our love. if we want to see it and reach it, then go to the highest place so that nothing else can get in the way of us and the stars. Then we see the brightest star as well as our dreams and try to hold the star and hug it very tightly. Because the truth is, after we have gone through many struggles to achieve our dreams, we also have to take care of them and think that whatever we have is completely not ours. how not, all of that is God's gift, and what God has given will return to God. Including our lives, our feelings of love, also our dreams. so as long as we still have it all we have to maintain and fight for it very well."
Xiao Long seemed to be swallowing his saliva hard. Love feeling? Does that include loved ones? Xiao Long looked at the stars too, and then he smiled sweetly.
"I have already obtained my star, and I will never allow anyone to snatch it from my hands," Xiao Long muttered.
Qiao Xin looked over, then she smiled, looking at Xiao Long looking at the stars in the sky,
"Then hold on very well, hold on tight, don't let your grip slip," she said later.
Xiao Long looked at Qiao Xin with a smile, and then the two looked at each other perfectly.
"I have one more surprise for you, would you like to see it with me?" Xiao Long asked again. Qiao Xin seemed to be frowning, causing Xiao Long to turn on his cellphone's flashlight. Before long, Qiao Xin gasped in disbelief. How not, thousands of fireflies flew perfectly from the forest and moved so compactly around her and Xiao Long. An extraordinary thing that made Qiao Xin speechless at all.
"Xiao Long, this is so beautiful," Qiao Xin said. She even almost cried because he was moved by the sight she saw right now.
"Someone said, when a man and a woman see thousands of fireflies together, their love will last forever. So, I want to give it a try, can our hatred turn into love? We try to challenge God and prove God's power, is it true that destiny exists? Is it true that soul mates are real, or is everything that has been said with stupid convictions from someone just a joke?"
Qiao Xin looked back at Xiao Long, who couldn't even separate her sad gaze from Xiao Long's brown eyes.
"God will answer the prayer of God's believing servant because trust is the beginning of a miracle. If you want something, then pray to God and believe, then you will be amazed to see how God's fingers have worked wonders for your prayers, Xiao Long,"
Xiao Long smiled wryly. Qiao Xin's words did sound very, very sweet. It even felt like he wanted to believe it, but everything was the exact opposite in reality. He once prayed to God, but God never answered his prayer.
"I prayed to God once, and that was also the last prayer I hung on to God when I asked God to save Lingling's life, but God took Lingling from me instead, I think you are wrong about God, you think God is everything,"
"Because what is good according to us is not necessarily the best according to God, Lingling left not because God did not hear your prayers. But because God loves Lingling so much, and now you see, Lingling is by God's side, Lingling is very happy now," Qiao Xin explained.
Xiao Long was silent, and his eyes were teary now. Somehow he felt so touched perfectly.
"Then will my prayer be answered now?" asked Xiao Long in the end.
Qiao Xin blinked her eyes perfectly, and she was confused by Xiao Long's question. Xiao Long's question confused her, for which she nodded as well. No matter what Xiao Long's prayers are, as long as her husband is willing to pray and starts relying on God, then Qiao Xin will pray for him too.
"I will pray to God, that your prayers will come true. What do you want to be granted by God, how? Are you feeling very happy now, Xiao Long?"
Xiao Long's jaw tightened. He looked back at Qiao Xin with a faint smile.
The prayer? Yes, now he had a new blessing, and he was about to start believing in God again, starting to put his hope in God again, for Qiao Xin to stay by his side forever. So that the marriage is no longer just a marriage on paper without a sense of love. Instead, it is a sacred marriage that Xiao Long and Qiao Xin will live in forever. So, will Qiao Xin be willing to grant Xiao Long's wish?
"Then do you still want to stand beside me when my prayer is granted by God, Qiqi?" Xiao Long asked again.
Qiao Xin nodded enthusiastically, and then she smiled widely as she looked at Xiao Long with enthusiasm.
"Of course, I will stand by your side when your prayer is answered by God, and I will be the first to congratulate you when your prayer comes true. Don't worry, I'm a true promise, I will never break my word!" Qiao Xin replied excitedly.
Without further ado, Xiao Long immediately hugged Qiao Xin very tightly, his tears just falling. For some reason, he heart felt so warm hearing Qiao Xin's promise, as if he had been given a wish for what he had prayed for. Then, Xiao Long let go of his embrace and looked at Qiao Xin's beautiful face illuminated by the moon and fireflies. Xiao Long slowly began to put his lips on Qiao Xin's and then forgot it lovingly.
It was a beautiful night for Xiao Long, it was as if God had given everything he wanted, and Xiao Long felt that his world was in his hands, with no one to separate them. Yes, that night, Xiao Long looked that happy.
