Living With a Temperamental Adonis 99 Proclamations of Love-Chapter 286: A Fool for Life 7
After she said that, Song Qingchun realized with a start the hand that was holding the phone was covered with sweat. She tossed her phone into her other hand and wiped her hand on her clothes. Then, realizing how brazen her request sounded, she was about to explain to Su Zhinian why she needed his help when the man on the other end of the phone asked in his uniquely emotionless voice, "Where are you now?"
Song Qingchun answered instinctively, "I'm at home."
"Okay." Su Zhinian was probably driving because Song Qingchun could hear the occasional shrill honking of a vehicle coming through the telephone. After a while, he said, "I understand."
The he hung up.
Song Qingchun was stunned, listening to the dial tone in her ear for a long time before realizing the call had been ended. She looked at the phone in her hand and blinked with disbelief.
This Maniac Su agreed to come fetch me without asking why or how? Since when did he become so friendly toward me?
Song Qingchun traced all the changes back to the night they had shared in the mountains. The day he had come to fetch her, and they had talked deep into the night. It was also that night when Song Qingchun had realized that he cared about her despite his cold exterior. But… why would Su Zhinian be good to her?
She had once hated him deeply. She had utterly berated him and had even thrown him out of her world, so why was he so good to her?
Song Qingchun thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a logical explanation. She shook her head to toss the question out of her mind. Then she frowned slightly. Did I just call him Maniac Su again? His caller ID on my phone is still Maniac Su.
With her palms cupped over her phone, Song Qingchun collapsed onto her bed. She bit her bottom lip, thinking, as she pressed the edit button and changed "Maniac Su" into "Sanitary Su".
Then, Song Qingchun looked at the name and felt like "Slow Typist Su" sounded better, so she changed it to that. Then, she realized "Cold-Blooded Su" matched his attitude better. She puffed out her cheeks and changed it to "Silent Su", then with a shake of her head, the name was changed to "Diary Su". Then, she frowned because "Technician Su", "Genius Su", "Liar Su", "One RMB Su", and "Beauty Su" were prize nicknames as well.
All of these are golden, which one should I use?
Song Qingchun bit her finger and hesitated for a long time before coming to a decision. Since Su Zhinian hadn't arrived yet, she wrote every single one of the nicknames on a piece of paper and then tore them into small pieces. She placed them on the table and shuffled them. Just as she was going to draw the official name for Su Zhinian on her phone, her phone rang.
Song Qingchun glanced at it and realized it was from Su Zhinian. Her finger that reached for one of the paper pieces stopped and changed its direction to grab her phone instead. Before she could offer a greeting, Su Zhinian's toneless voice drifted into her ears. "I'm here."
"I'll be there in a minute." Song Qingchun hung up and grabbed her bag and jacket in a hurry before dashing out of her bedroom. She suddenly made a U-turn as she reached the top of the stairs.
