*Flashback Continued*
When Ye Jun walked out of the restaurant, he noticed the orange-gold rays stretching out in the sky to paint it with the color of fire hearths and tangerine jellies. As the sun rged with the sky, it gave the illusion of a mighty warrior going to sleep by draping the blanket of darkness. The sky looked so serene and aesthetic that it was a sight to behold.
Ye Jun had to jog up to catch up with Fu Shuang and when he did, he saw Fu Shuang imrsed in gazing at the back of that girl while walking behind her with a distance of 5 steps. The way Fu Shuang was looking at her made Ye Jun feel like he was etching every single movent of that girl in his mind. And that was exactly what Fu Shuang was doing.
The girl was wandering around aimlessly. The sun had set completely as the moon ca up to lighten up the dark night. The crescent moon hung in the sky while cascading its white-silvery glow bathing the dark night, illuminating it.
The girl wrapped a chiffon scarf around her neck and half of her face hid under it. She walked further ahead and halted in front of a flower stall. The fresh flowers were spreading their srizing fragrance in the beautiful night. She picked up a single red tulip in her hand to look at it.
"Mademoiselle, voulez-vous l’achether? (Miss, would you like to buy it?)" The shop keeper asked with a smile in French.
"Non. (No)" Both Fu Shuang and Ye Jun heard that sweet soft voice of the girl replying in French and walking away with a faint smile. Ye Jun only managed to see the clear black eyes that seed to be darker than the dark night itself. But he could tell that she must be gorgeous from the way she spoke.
When the girl left the flower stall, Fu Shuang ran up to it and asked for a bouquet of red tulips. Ye Jun was gaping at his friend who seed to have lost his mind. "Master Shuang!" Ye Jun only called him ’Master Shuang’ when he was mad at him. "What do you think you’re doing?"
Fu Shuang gave him a perplexed look. "I’m buying flowers." He replied matter of factly making Ye Jun roll his eyes.
"Red Tulips represent Eternal Love. Are you seriously gonna give this to the girl, you just t? Oh, no! Not t. Just saw." Fu Shuang nodded his head like a chicken pecking at the grains and Ye Jun hit the back of his head. "Have you lost your mind?"
Ye Jun’s glare did little to nothing. Fu Shuang smiled like a lovestruck teenager and replied, "I don’t know about the mind. But I surely lost my heart." Ye Jun groaned but he still had to follow Fu Shuang.
The girl entered the hotel and both of them followed after her. When Fu Shuang finally found her room, he placed the bouquet in front of the door on the ground. He took out a note, wrote sothing on it and placed it with the bouquet. Then, he knocked on the door and like a little kid hid behind a corner.
The room door opened after a minute and the girl walked out to look. She looked around but there was no one then her eyes fell at the bouquet of red tulips. She bent a little and picked the flowers up from the floor. Her eyes caught sight of the note and she opened it to read:
’I was standing right there
But you didn’t look my way
I saw a smile that made my world bright
But it vanished into the night
I heard a soft voice tickling
And it captured my soul in its trance
I saw a pair of lonely eyes
But the moonlight brought them to light
I think it was you;
my heart beats only for you!’
She frowned and looked around but couldn’t find anyone. So, she took the bouquet inside thinking soone left it at the wrong door and will co to pick it up later. But Fu Shuang thought that she liked the flowers. He was over the moon while going back to his own hotel.
Early morning, the next day, Fu Shuang woke Ye Jun up and brought him to a small street cafe. Whatever confusion, Ye Jun had about the reason for Fu Shuang’s desire to drink a coffee here was cleared up when he saw the sa girl they saw last night. Ye Jun face pald himself and sprawled out on the table to get back to his sleep.
Xu y was seated right behind Ye Jun and ordered an Aricano for herself. Fu Shuang mustered up his courage to go up to her. "Wish luck, Jun." Ye Jun just waved him off with his head still down.
Fu Shuang took a deep breath and walked up to her table. "Hi!" He said making her look up at his face. She was stunned for a mont before she got her composure back. "Did you like the flowers I sent you last night?"
"You sent those red Tulips?" She asked with raised brows. Fu Shuang nodded imdiately.
"Yes, I did. I saw you at the Eiffel Tower yesterday and was very much interested in you. So, I couldn’t stop myself from buying those flowers for you. Also, I bought a gift for you." He placed an expensive pendant in front of Xu y. Her eyes blazed with fury but she kept her calm countenance.
"Mr." She started.
"Fu... Fu Shuang." He replied instantly.
"Whatever your na is. Do you know ?"
"No!" Xu y heaved a sigh of relief but didn’t let it show on her face at all.
"If you don’t know , how can you like ?" Fu Shuang wanted to say sothing but Xu y didn’t give him a chance to. "Do I look like a product’s advertisent to you?" Ye Jun’s ears perked up like a rabbit while Fu Shuang frowned not getting her aning. "I’m not a product’s advertisent that you saw it, like it and now brought an expensive gift to buy it." Ye Jun sat up straight and Fu Shuang was just staring wide eyes at her. "Mr. Fu Shaung, I’m not for sale."
"President Xu?" A male voice ca from beside her and she turned to see the man she was here to et.
"Let’s talk sowhere else." She said and walked away leaving Fu Shuang frozen at his spot.
Ye Jun ca up to Fu Shuang’s side and patted his shoulder. "Bro, that’s one feisty girl for you."
Fu Shuang grinned widely and said, "Gosh! I love that attitude."
Ye Jun gritted his teeth and punched him in the guts to break his daydreaming.
