Little Trouble X Little Contrarian
[Excerpt]
At home
Ren Huan was curled up in Lu Xiran's arms. They sat on the sofa, with the TV off. The spacious house felt a little quiet, broken only by the occasional tap of Lu Xiran's fingers.
Ren Huan spoke, looking up at the man beside her. Her voice was soft as she asked, "What is love?"
Lu Xiran only looked down at her without answering.
Ren Huan was about to ask again when she felt the man's warm lips against hers, their tongues entwining.
A deep kiss.

Ren Huan said, "I asked, "
Before she could finish, a chill suddenly touched the ring finger of her right hand. She lowered her eyes. A ring, its finely cut diamond gleaming with a unique light beneath the lamps.
Then Lu Xiran's voice came from above her. "I love you." He kissed her forehead. "Marry me." Each word rang clear and true.
It was the best way he could think of to show his love for her.
That unique light was Lu Xiran's eternal love.
