Chapter 117: Wanted To See You

When Su Ruan came down in the evening, her cousins, Ma Wei and Ma Yu Xi were already waiting for her in the living room.

Su Ruan gave Ma Wei a look over before she turned to Ma Yu Xi. "Is your brother coming along?"

"Uh-huh. He heard that we are going swimming and wanted to tag along," Ma Yu Xi whispered. "Last time, my dad mentioned that you almost drowned in the lake water and now, my brother is worried that you wouldn't be able to swim."

Su Ruan laughed. She was someone who know how to swim. But perhaps she was too stunned and afraid when she fell into the lake water. The result was that her brain froze and she was unable to think what she should do next.

Her lips pursed into a thin line as she recalled what she had seen in the water when she fell into the lake.

Since they were going to swim in the lake, Su Ruan could not help but anticipate that she was going to meet her little friend.

It seemed that after that night she went out with Long Fei and had forgotten to leave her window open, the little dragon had stopped showing up.

After gathering everything they might need, Su Ruan tossed her small bag into the pickup truck.

Just in time, her phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and was surprised to see the name. Long Fei.

Seeing that her cousins were not paying attention to her, Su Ruan walked to a quiet corner to pick up the phone call.

"Su Ruan," the man's deep voice entered her ears the moment the phone call was connected.

"Mmm… Hello."

Long Fei chuckled when he heard her voice. Somehow, he could already imagine that the girl was hiding in a quiet place to answer his phone call. According to his knowledge, Su Ruan had not mentioned anything about their relationship to anyone other than her cousin, Ma Yu Xi.

"I haven't heard from you for a while," Su Ruan said.

"Sorry. Something happened and I have to make a trip overseas to look after some project," Long Fei said. He lowered his gaze and rubbed his fingers together. "It was too pressing and I did not have the chance to inform you."

After the last time they went out together, Long Fei has been busying himself with some family matters.

Shen Yue had suddenly visited D Town and his elders were worried that the group of people were up to something again. After discussing with his grandfather, Long Fei decided to make a trip overseas to throw tricks to that group.

They have taken the bait and Long Fei hoped that they would not show up in D Town for a long time.

"It's alright. I know that you are busy with your work."

Long Fei frowned as he made up his mind to make up to her. "What are you up to? Do you want to go out and have dinner together?"

Su Ruan glanced at her cousins and lowered her head again. "I'll have to pass. I'm going out with my cousins. We're going swimming."

"You're going to the lake?"

"Mhm…" Su Ruan nodded, even though she knew well that Long Fei would not be able to see her.

Long Fei thought of the time he had watched her fall into the lake. "Can you swim?"

"Of course. The last time you found me in the water, it was only because I fell into the water by accident and had swallowed a lot of water." Su Ruan pursed her lips, wondering if Long Fei was going to believe her words.

"Anyway…" Su Ruan coughed. "My elder cousin will come along as well. They were familiar with the lake and are good swimmers. There shouldn't be any trouble."

Long Fei was not convinced. In his opinion, there was no one better at swimming other than him. "Where is your cousin taking you?"

"I'm not sure." Even though her cousins told her about the spots, Su Ruan would not know anything about the place they were going to. After all, she was still unfamiliar with the town.

"Then, send me the location when you arrived."

Su Ruan was unable to hide her surprise when she heard his words. "Are you planning to come over?"

"Can't I?"

Su Ruan found that she did not know how to answer this question. "It's not that you can't."

It was fine if she was with Ma Yu Xi. However, this time, Ma Wei will be joining them as well. How was she supposed to explain Long Fei's appearance?

"Su Ruan…" His voice was a little hoarse. "I just wanted to see you."

Her heart skipped a beat. Once she had processed his words, her heartbeat accelerated. It felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest. Her head was a little dizzy and she found that she did not have the heart to say no.

Seeing that both Ma Yu Xi and Ma Wei were heading her way, Su Ruan quickly made a promise to Long Fei that she will tell him where they are heading to.

Once everything was ready, Su Ruan climbed up the truck and lowered her gaze. She did not dare to look at her cousins for fear that they might notice anything.

The vehicle arrived at its destination after five minutes of driving. As they arrived, Ma Yu Xi pulled her over to look at the lake water.

The corner of her lips twitched upon noticing that the water around the area was not that deep. It was expected that the water will only reach her waist.

"Sister Ruan, let's go into the water." Ma Yu Xi was dressed in her shorts and t-shirt and was ready to jump into the water.

Su Ruan let out a cough. "You go in first. I'm going to reply to a message from work first." Seeing that her cousin had walked over to the lake, Su Ruan took out her phone and send out her location to Long Fei.

The man sent back his reply after a few seconds. "I'll come over quickly."

Su Ruan inhaled deeply when she saw his message.. Somehow, she was expecting to see him around.
