"So pretty. I wish I could walk closer to plunge the beautiful flowers or catch those colourful butterflies," Yang Zi exclaid in amazent, stretching her hands as though the butterflies were just in front of her. Too bad they were beyond her reach. They were on a cliff while the beautiful scenery was down there, and there was no way they could climb down.
"So, this place really existed? I thought Grandpa was just making up stories when he talked about this heavenly beauty before ," Yifeng said with looks of admiration.
"Your Grandpa knew the existence of this?" Yang Zi questioned. She instantly turned around and glanced at him. She wanted to listen to what Grandpa Li told him about this beautiful sight before her.
"It is called WTLH," Yifeng exclaid montarily, taking his gaze away from the beauty scenery to stare at her.
"WTLH?" Yang Zi repeated the words. Her expression showed that she did not know the aning of the strange words.
"Where True Love Happens," Yifeng stated.
"Where True Love Happens?" Yang Zi repeated, oblivious of the aning of the words. "What does it an?" Yang Zi asked curiously.
"Those who find this place are ant for each other. Despite the struggle they will face. No matter whether the universe is against their love, they will always find a way to each other. Another na for it apart from WTLH is The Pool Of True Love," Yifeng relayed ekly.
"Are trying to say that we are destined for each other? That is impossible," Yang Zi shouted, facing the beautiful scene again. She couldn't bring herself to believe his words.
"Do you detest falling in love with that much?" Yifeng asked with calmness in his voice. Although he didn't believe in folktales and superstitions but for the first ti he wished all his Grandpa told him about the pool of true love was real. He wanted his love story with Yang Zi to begin soon.
"If what you said is true, how co my Grandma never told about this? She was a very knowledgeable woman. I am sure she would have enlightened about it if what you have just said is true".
"I bet she didn't tell you because she did not know about it. The reason my Grandpa knew about the existence of this pool is because my great Grandparents told him about it. The love story of my great Grandparents started from here. If what my Grandpa said about them is true, I am more obliged to tell you that my great Grandparent's relationship is like ours. When they first t back then, they despised each other just like we did, but their hate relationship miraculously blood into love after they found this pool of true love," Yifeng narrated. It wasn't a surprise to him to see that Yang Zi still doubted his words. He couldn't bla her because he had the exact expression when his Grandpa told him about the strange pool.
"I bet they are just folktales. If the story you just narrated to is true, how co the world's best photographer did not find it? Why is it that those who are crazy about finding their true love did not embark on the journey to find the mysterious pool?" Yang Zi asked doubtfully.
"My Grandpa told that his parents told him that before the mysterious pool beca the mystery that it is today was because of how people misused the pool. Before everyone could easily find the pool because it had a specific location but n or won who are obsessed about marrying the woman he or she fancies will trick his or her partner and bring him/her to the pool and later claim that they were ant to be with each other. Because of the pool, there was a lot of relationship deceit. Those who deliberately bring their partners to the pool and later claim that it was true love all divorce within one year after getting married,"
"Is that why the pool moves from where it originally was? Because people misuse it?" Yang Zi interrupted him curiously.
"Mhm...," Yifeng trailed, staring at her. Yang Zi waited for Yifeng to continue with his story, and when he didn't, she frowned at him.
"Why did you stop?" Yang Zi asked.
"You said it was a made-up story so you won't believe in its credibility, so why do you want to continue?" Yifeng replied.
"That I don't believe in it does not an I don't want to listen to the story, so shoot! Stop making wait," Yang Zi ordered. Yifeng did not take offense in her manner of speech. He continued when he saw how she was dying to hear the end of the story.
"Those who were defrauded by their partners always went to the pool to cry after the breakup. They blad the pool for ruining their lives. Since there was a lot of havoc in marriage because of the deceit, the pool finally heard the cries of the heartbroken people and vanished. After it vanished, many people across the world went on adventures to find the pool, but to no avail. Therefore, many people know nothing about the pool," Yifeng concluded. But Yang Zi was not satisfied with where the story ended.
"If your great Grandparents could find it, I bet those who were close to them must have also known about the existence of this magical pool so how co they did not go in search of the pool after they found out that the pool exists?" Yang Zi asked inquisitively.
"That is because the pool does not stay in a place. It vanishes into thin air the mont those who find it leave the place, so even though they told people about it they cannot find it again after it disappears," Yifeng answered. He was so glad that he listened to his Grandpa's story about the tale of the pool, even though he was not interested in it back then. He wouldn't have been able to give answers to Yang Zi's questions if he ignored his storytelling.
"Do you believe now?" Yifeng asked curiously when she did not question him again.
"I don't. Everything about the pool sounds like a fairytale and I don't believe in fairytales," Yang Zi claid.
"We have two ways to prove whether the story about the pool is true, so are you interested to know these two ways to verify the credibility of the pool?" Yifeng asked, staring at her. Yang Zi hesitated a bit. Her expression showed that she was scared that all Yifeng just said was the truth. She was afraid that they may really be destined for each other.
"Ok, so how can we verify it?" Yang Zi succumbed to her curiosity.
