Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Lu’s Confession 2_1

"Originally, I planned to prepare properly after returning and then confess to you, but now I can’t wait any longer. I’m afraid if I don’t say it now, I may never get the chance..."

Lu Tingli moved away from her lips, his well-defined fingers cradling her delicate face: "You are my first love, and you will be my last. I lack experience and I’m not versed in romance, but I will treat you with a sincere heart."

"For the rest of our lives together, I hope you will guide me. If there are things I don’t do well, please tell me directly, and I will change immediately. Don’t just brood on your own, bottling everything up inside, because I might be very clumsy when it comes to emotions and not realize why you are upset."

Even though Ningxing couldn’t see his expression at that moment, she could imagine it—he must have been speaking these tender words with absolute seriousness and concentration.

Her heart started beating wildly again, and she felt as if she was on cloud nine, as if everything was surreal.

But without a doubt, she was thrilled, excited, and sweetly content.

In her excitement, she heard Lu Tingli sincerely add, "Ningxing, I will love you with my life!"

Hearing his earnest, heartfelt words, Ningxing could no longer contain the surging emotions within her. She hugged him tightly and said that sentence—

"Lu, I like you too!"

At this moment, Ningxing had long since cast aside any thoughts of a huge inheritance.

She also forgot that he was not expected to live past thirty.

She said she liked him simply because she genuinely wanted to spend the rest of her life with him!

At her words, Lu Tingli felt a rush of euphoria. Was there anything more joyous in the world than mutual affection?

The already narrow space grew warmer, and the atmosphere turned suddenly intimate.

Soon, their lips found each other.

It was a long while before they stopped.

Luckily, it was pitch-dark, or she would have died of embarrassment.

Ningxing’s cheeks were so red they could nearly bleed, and in a timid, shy voice, she said, "Well... we should still think about how to get out of here. I don’t want to become a pair of star-crossed lovers with you."

Her will to survive was incredibly strong now!

She didn’t want to die!

She still wanted to grow old with Lu!

But all of this depended on one condition... they had to get out of the ruins first!

"Don’t worry, I just found a metal pipe. We can find a chunk of broken stone and tap on the pipe with it. The vibrations from the pipe will carry our sound to the surface. Once someone above hears it, they’ll discover we are trapped here," Lu Tingli said, rubbing her head, his chest was full of sweetness, his desire to survive no less fierce than hers.

He wanted to live, to get out, to date her, to marry her, to have children with her, to do many, many things with her...

The principle behind using a stone to strike a metal pipe to transmit sound to the surface is that sound can travel in solids and the effect is relatively good.

"Okay," Tingli nodded, agreeing with his suggestion.

However, after a long time of tapping, there was no response, as if their efforts were swallowed by the sea, and it seemed that no rescue teams had arrived yet.

Lu Tingli temporarily set down the pipe: "Perhaps there are no rescue workers above us right now."

"Then let’s rest a bit before tapping again," Xia Ningxing had just finished speaking when her stomach embarrassingly grumbled with a "gurgle."
