Chapter 51 - If One Day No One Wants To Marry Me (1)

Su Xiaofei was momentarily stunned by what she heard from Lu Qingfeng\'s lips.

"What?" She blinked, her wide, clear eyes on him.

Lu Qingfeng stepped forward and tucked in her stray locks behind her ear, with such gentleness he would never show to anyone, but her.

"I said that it should be yours. In the future, marry a man who could give you anything you want and wouldn\'t treat you less than the queen that you are." He said, his lips curled into a slight smile.

"Our Xiaofei should never settle for less. It doesn\'t matter if he can\'t help you through everything, as long as he can love you through everything and won\'t leave you, but I guess it would be hard for you to find a more capable man than me." He said with such a wicked smile on his face and tone that made Su Xiaofei aware of the blush that was threatening to bloom on her face.

"Idiot! So conceited! Do you really have to brag that you are better than the rest?" Su Xiaofei avoided meeting his gaze.

She stepped back from his touch and harshly turned her back on him, knowing fully well that her face was now beat red from his teasing. Her hands placed on her chest, allowing her to feel the erratic beat of her heart from hearing such words from Lu Qingfeng.

\'Lu Qingfeng is still young. Don\'t tell me he\'s already had such feelings for me at such a young age?\'

Su Xiaofei might be physically eighteen, but her mind was that of a woman of twenty-eight years who had already experienced hardship in life. Meanwhile, Lu Qingfeng was only fifteen, but why did she feel that this man had become more overbearing and arrogant since her rebirth?

The fifteen-year-old Lu Qingfeng that she knew wouldn\'t act like this. Even the way he spoke was so different from what he used to be. He sounded… older and wiser.

Did her rebirth and attempt in changing the course of the events somehow made a change in his personality? Su Xiaofei wondered.

Lu Qingfeng shrugged and chose to bury his hands in his side pockets in an attempt to stop himself from reaching out to hold Su Xiaofei. It was hard to control himself whenever Su Xiaofei was near him.

"What can I say? You have to admit that I look better than that stupid fiancé of yours." He said half-jokingly, hoping that it would somehow lighten the mood between them.

"He\'s not my fiancé anymore. Regardless of what others think, Mo Yuchen isn\'t my fiancé."

This time, Su Xiaofei faced him, the blush on her face was replaced with annoyance upon the mention of Mo Yuchen.

"You hate him that much, huh? Just what did he do for you to hold such ire against him?" Lu Qingfeng asked curiously, his eyes trying to find answers on Su Xiaofei\'s face.

"He disrespected me and humiliated me. It would have been better if he said that he disliked me rather than treating me like a fool." Su Xiaofei replied. "He and I would never reconcile in this lifetime."

"Would this mean that you would have no choice in the future but to marry me?" Lu Qingfeng said out of the blue, which caught Su Xiaofei off guard.

Damn it. Su Xiaofei thought. Just as she thought that she had recovered from her shock earlier, Lu Qingfeng had decided to drop another bomb on her.

"What the hell are you talking about? Aren\'t we too young to talk about marriage and getting married?" She said in response, wondering why Lu Qingfeng was asking her such things anyway.

"What? Don\'t look at me like that. I wasn\'t the one who forced myself on you. Don\'t you remember? You forced me to make a promise that if no man wants to marry you in the future, I would have to marry you." The young man said in defense and this only left Su Xiaofei flabbergasted.

She stared at him with wide eyes, mouth a jar, as she thought of a word to deny his claim, but nothing came out. Her mind was blank as it failed to process what she just heard from young Lu Qingfeng.

"I said that?" She asked in disbelief, after a long silence between them.

"April 24, 20xx, two weeks before your thirteenth birthday. You said that if you\'ve reached the age of twenty-three and are still unmarried, I\'ll have to marry you." Lu Qingfeng explained in a matter-of-fact tone.

Su Xiaofei was rendered totally speechless by his words. Two weeks before her thirteenth birthday he said.

Wait. Wasn\'t that before she met and saved Mo Yuchen\'s life? She now remembered a particular memory she had of Lu Qingfeng when they were younger.

Su Xiaofei had just gotten into a fight with a group of older kids near their neighborhood and one of them said that Su Xiaofei was too unladylike and no one would like to marry her when she grew up. She ended up beating those kids herself and chased them away, but in the end, their words bothered her immensely.

"Xiao Feng, you don\'t hate me, right? If one day no one wants to marry me, and you\'ve already grown up, you have to marry me instead." She tried to convince the ten-year-old Lu Qingfeng.

Su Xiaofei slapped her forehead, berating herself for saying such words to her childhood friend.

"What the hell?" She exclaimed. She wasn\'t even sure if it was a childhood joke or not.

"Indeed, Su Xiaofei, what the hell? How dare you try to scam and trick the ten-year-old me into marriage? You\'re such a meanie to me, Xiaofei." Lu Qingfeng feigned being offended by her. "You specifically mentioned that I have to marry you when you are twenty-three. Ah, so that gives us five years then.. If you can\'t find anyone to marry by then, you are stuck with me for a lifetime."
