Azalea pondered over his words and realized he wasn’t wrong. In fact, Xiamu was way better than herself at lying but he was always caught by her. It was all because she paid unusual attention to his matters.

  "Jun bro, even if I accept that I have feelings for him, it won’t change anything." Azalea finally said out her fears.

  "Oh, really? And how do you know that without even trying?" Ye Jun challenged her.

  "Because he just lost the one he loved. He had to give his own fiancee to his own cousin brother. Just because, the happiness of his brother and his best friend mattered more to him than his own self." Azalea felt really good just thinking about how selfless he acted but at the same time, something stung her heart brutally. It was a reminder that he loved his fiancee way more than she had initially thought.

  "I guess you haven’t heard that the best way to forget old love is to find a new one." Ye Jun said being all wise and mature.

  "Then why did Jun Li Na left you and ran away?" Ouch! That was a harsh blow to Ye Jun who was acting all cheery and mature. Realizing what she said in her flustered state, Azalea felt really bad. "I…… I didn’t mean that." She was really guilty but Ye Jun didn’t look perturbed at all.

  He rubbed her hair gently and said, "My Lili left because she also didn’t want me to stand beside her when she felt pity even for herself. I believe in her and I know that she will come back to me. Stronger than ever." Azalea was surprised to hear his views. Wasn’t he the one who actually broke down before her when he got to know that Jun Li Na left? What changed him so soon?

  "You seem confident," she remarked absentmindedly.

  Ye Jun grinned widely and said, "I am confident. If I don’t believe in my own love then how can I expect you to believe in it?" Seeing him wiggling his brows playfully, Azalea felt her nerves calming down.

  "But I can’t just ask him to go out with me." Ye Jun felt like her tape recorder was still stuck at the same thing. She was like a parrot saying the same thing over and over and over again.

  "What age do you live in? I thought people in the west were more open-minded. How can you still be waiting for the guy to make the first move? Be smart and act on it yourself. If you kept waiting, he might be swept off of his feet by some other damsel in distress." He flicked her forehead harshly to knock some sense into her head.

  With her head on the table, Xu Mey had fallen asleep and by the time, she woke up it had been over 30 minutes since her phone call with Jie. She had a feeling that he’d be coming soon and that’s why she decided to leave the office and wait for him in the lobby.

  She didn’t feel as dizzy as she did before and the uncomfortable feeling in her was also a lot more bearable. She took the elevator down to the ground floor. But riding the closed up elevator seemed to have stimulated her uneasiness and she again felt queasiness and squeamishness.

  Not wanting to say inside the lobby, she straight walked out of the glass doors to feel the coolness of the evening breeze. As the slightly chilly breeze caressed her face and she took a sharp intake of breath, she felt the coolness spreading through her system.

  Feeling calm after the whole day of frustration and sickness, she was finally able to relax in the evening wind. She dialed the number again and asked, "Where are you, Ah-Jie?"

  "Right here." As he said that Xu Mey heard his favorite Maybach’s screeching sound as it stopped on the road right ahead of her.

  Xu Mey watched Jie getting off the car and asked, "And where is my cheesecake?" She sounded like she was whining like a kid.

  Jie shook his head at her and went around the car. He held the box of cake up and dangled it to show her that he had fulfilled his promise. "You’re the best." Xu Mey grinned widely as she saw the cheesecake in his hand.

  "My queen asked for her cake, how can her loyal servant come without it?" Xu Mey’s smiled widened even more if that was even possible. She loved it when he was being cheeky. "Didn’t I ask you to wait for me in the office?" He sounded a bit upset since the possibility of her being pregnant was freaking him out. In a good way. If that even makes sense……

  "I felt suffocated and decided to breathe in some fresh air," Xu Mey answered as her eyes were stuck on her husband which was just about ten steps away from her now.

  Both of them had a silly smile on their faces, one at the possibility of being a father and the other because she felt content and satisfaction at just the thought that her husband was so damn caring and loving. How did she really get so lucky? She definitely wasn’t born with lucky stars. What really changed?

  Most of all, the smile showed how crazily they both had been wanting to see the other half. Now, they finally felt complete.

  A distant voice rang in her mind, ’When two peoples fates collide, either they make a mirthless catastrophe or a beguiling miracle.’


  She smiled lost in her own thoughts. He surely was the aesthetic wonder of her life and there was no doubt about that.

  They both stood before each other and whispered, "Hi!"

  Seeing her rosy cheeks, Jie’s heart was beating vigorously. There was no doubt in the fact that he fell in love with her every time he saw her. A little bit more at each gaze that landed on her adorable self. It was always like the feeling of being in love with her for the first time.

  With an inexplicable feeling in his heart, Jie pulled her soft and dainty figure in his strong arms almost squeezing her in his embrace. Xu Mey chuckled against his chest at his possessiveness but she couldn’t deny that in his familiar warmth and scent, she felt extremely safe and loved.

  Before she could wrap her arms around his back, a blaring sound of tires made her head tilt to a side. A blazing headlight stung her eyes and she squinted them not being able to even see. Before she could even make sense of anything, a rogue car was already coming towards them at fast speed.

  "Bang!"

  The next sound that landed in her ear was the roar of an engine and crashing sound that seemed to have stopped her heartbeat. And after a woosh sound, everything around her went into silence. An endless one……
