Under the confused gaze of the waitress who looked at him like he was crazy, Su Zhinian continued the pace up and down the corridor before shoving the door open again. Without even closing the door, he dashed to the sofa. He reached out to grab Song Qingchun's arms and pulled her up from the sofa.
"Su Zhinian, what are you doing? Qingchun is pregnant; you have to be more careful…" Su Zhinian drowned out Song Menghwa's lecture as he pulled Song Qingchun tightly into his arms.
He knew that he was acting a bit too crazily, but then again, how could he not be? Ever since he had stumbled upon the secret that he was Song Menghwa's son, there had not been a single night when he didn't imagine how glorious his life would be if they weren't biological siblings.
However, the greater the dream, the more devastating the reality when he woke up the next day. His love toward her was so deep that it had become a part of him. How deep his love was equalled to how excited he was then. In fact, he was so excited that he had difficulty explaining the many joyful emotions that flitted through every cell in his body.
Su Zhinian hugged Song Qingchun tighter and tighter. His lips fell open, but he found the words paled in comparison to the range and intensity of his feeling. In the end, he lowered his head to kiss Song Qingchun hungrily and heavily on her lips.
He knew there were several waitresses outside the open door sneaking a peek at their kiss, and he also knew that Song Menghwa was just standing beside them. However, he didn't care anymore; he didn't want to care. All he wanted was to use the most direct method to actualize the cheer and elation that filled his heart. Although they were already having a child together, this was the first time he had been allowed to kiss so openly and without reprimand.
As Su Zhinian gobbled up her lips, he could feel his eyes getting sour with tears.
Tingting, do you know how much I have wished to be able to hug you, kiss you, and love you so openly? I really didn't expect this day would come…
Su Zhinian lost himself in the kiss, and the quiet room started to fill with some unsavoury noises. Even Song Menghwa, who already had three children, had to turn away with his face burning. He waved at one of the waitresses standing at the door to get her into the room to help him up and lead him out of the room. Before he left, he even tactfully closed the door for Song Qingchun and Su Zhinian.
The room was left only with him and her. Su Zhinian's kiss became deeper and stronger like he was trying to merge Song Qingchun's into his soul. The kiss continued until the room started to swirl, until the temperature of their bodies rose to the maximum, until Song Qingchun felt like he was sucking the breath out of her… Su Zhinian finally released her while gasping for breath.
If not for her pregnancy, Su Zhinian would have used physical activity to share with her the joy that was bubbling in his heart.
Su Zhinian's heart beat so strongly in his chest that he felt like it would jump out of his throat any time soon. He pulled Song Qingchun into his embrace and held her there for a long time before finally uttering one of the many promises and observations that currently occupied his mind.
"Tingting, so we can be in love…"
