The early morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a golden glow across the room as Tang Xue i stirred in bed. She blinked drowsily, the scent of freshly brewed coffee wafting in from the adjoining suite. Stretching lazily, she turned, only to find the space beside her empty.
Just as she was about to sit up, the sound of the door clicking open drew her attention. Feng Shihan walked in, carrying a tray with a steaming cup of coffee, a delicate croissant dusted with powdered sugar, and a single red rose. His crisp white shirt was unbuttoned at the collar, and his sleeves were casually rolled up, giving him an effortlessly handso look.
"Good morning, sleepyhead," he said with a smirk, setting the tray down beside her.
Xue i arched an eyebrow. "You don’t usually bring breakfast in bed. What’s the occasion?"
Feng Shihan leaned down, brushing a soft kiss against her forehead. "You’ll find out soon enough. Eat first."
Though suspicious, she took a bite of the croissant, savoring the buttery, flaky texture. "Mmm... this is delicious. But you’re not off the hook. What are you up to, Feng Shihan?"
He chuckled, watching her with amusent. "You’ll see. But first, pack a bag."
Xue i’s chewing slowed. "Pack a bag? Where are we going?"
His smirk deepened. "A surprise trip. Just for the two of us. No interruptions, no business, no one but us."
Her heart skipped a beat. "A trip? Shihan, I—"
He placed a finger against her lips, silencing her. "Trust , Xue i. You’ll love it."
She studied his expression, her curiosity piqued. Knowing Feng Shihan, he had planned sothing extraordinary. A thrill of anticipation coursed through her as she quickly finished her breakfast and slipped out of bed.
"Alright, Mr. Mysterious. Give a hint at least?"
He only smirked. "No hints. Just pack sothing comfortable... and sothing elegant for dinner."
Her eyes narrowed, but she complied, throwing a mix of outfits into her suitcase. A few hours later, they were on a private jet, the hum of the engines filling the air. Xue i stared out the window, watching the clouds roll past beneath them.
It wasn’t until the captain announced their descent that she finally got an answer.
"Welco to Country T."
Her breath hitched. "Country T? Wow I didn’t know it was this pretty. You pic ked the right place.."
Feng Shihan’s eyes twinkled. "Haha you can trust on that."
Excitent surged through her. The stunning cliffs, the sapphire-blue waters, the charm of the old-world streets, she hadn’t always dread of visiting. And regardless, he had made it happen.
As they stepped off the plane, a warm diterranean breeze greeted them. A convertible waited for them at the airport, and Feng Shihan took the driver’s seat, looking effortlessly cool as he navigated the winding coastal roads.
The view was breathtaking. The sunlight shimred off the water, the scent of citrus and sea salt filling the air. Tang Xue i couldn’t stop smiling and enjoying the breeze.
"Do you like it?" Shihan asked, glancing at her.
"Like it? I love it! This is... incredible."
They arrived at a luxurious cliffside villa, where the staff welcod them with chilled champagne and a private terrace that overlooked the endless sea.
Feng Shihan wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her close. "This is just the beginning, love. I have a whole weekend planned for us."
Xue i turned in his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck. "I think I’m already having the best ti of my life."
He leaned in, whispering against her lips, "Then I’ll make it unforgettable."
The sun was beginning to dip toward the horizon, casting golden streaks across the endless sea as Tang Xue i stood on the private terrace of their villa. A soft breeze carried the scent of salt and citrus, teasing at the loose strands of her hair. She took a deep breath, savoring the mont.
Feng Shihan stepped up behind her, his arms circling her waist as he rested his chin on her shoulder. "Ready for the next part of our adventure?"
Xue i smiled, leaning into him. "There’s more?"
He chuckled, pressing a kiss against her temple. "Of course. I’m only getting started."
Monts later, a sleek yacht awaited them at the private dock below the villa. Xue i’s eyes widened as she took in the luxurious sight—sleek white with gold detailing, complete with a sun deck and a candlelit table set for two. The soft lody of a violin played in the background as they boarded.
"You really went all out," she said, turning to him with admiration.
"You deserve nothing less," he murmured, helping her onto the deck.
As the yacht drifted across the shimring waters, the setting sun painted the sky in hues of orange, pink, and violet. The view was breathtaking, but Xue i found herself more captivated by the man sitting across from her, his gaze steady and filled with sothing that made her heart race.
"You know," she said, picking up her wine glass, "for soone who claims to be all about business, you have a deeply romantic side, Feng Shihan."
He smirked, tilting his own glass toward her. "Only for you."
Dinner was a masterpiece, Italian cuisine—handmade pasta, fresh seafood, and decadent desserts. Between bites, they shared laughter, stories about their experience so far, and soft touches that spoke of the bond between them.
As night fell, the stars blanketed the sky in a dazzling display. Xue i sighed, resting her head against his shoulder. "I don’t want this night to end."
"It doesn’t have to," he murmured, kissing the top of her head. "Tomorrow, we have more to explore. A little sailing, maybe a stroll through the old town, and I might have another surprise."
She lifted her head, narrowing her eyes playfully. "Another one?"
Feng Shihan’s lips curled into a knowing smile. "You’ll see."
But at that mont, she didn’t need any more surprises. Being there, wrapped in his warmth under the starry sky, was more than enough.
And yet, she knew—when it ca to Feng Shihan, the best was always yet to co.
The next morning, they set out on a sailboat, navigating the sparkling turquoise waters.
The coastline of Country T stretched before them—towering cliffs, hidden coves, and picturesque villages nestled against the rocky terrain.
Xue i stood at the bow, arms outstretched as the wind played with her hair. "This is amazing!" she called over her shoulder.
Feng Shihan, standing at the helm, watched her with an indulgent smile. "You’re amazing," he said under his breath, though she still caught it, turning to give him a knowing look.
They docked near the famous Blue Grotto, where the water glowed an otherworldly shade of sapphire.
As their boatman guided them through the cave, Xue i gasped, awed by the ethereal light reflecting against the stone walls.
"I’ve never seen anything like this," she whispered.
Feng Shihan reached for her hand, intertwining their fingers. "I wanted to give you sothing unforgettable."
She squeezed his hand. "You already have."
After the grotto, they strolled through the charming streets of a seaside village, sampling fresh gelato and stopping at boutique shops. Xue i tried on a delicate pendant necklace, a simple gold piece with a sapphire charm.
"It suits you," Feng Shihan said, stepping behind her and fastening it before she could protest.
"Shihan, I—"
"No argunts," he murmured. "I want you to have sothing from this trip."
She touched the pendant, her heart full. "Then I’ll never take it off."
They ended the day at a secluded beach, where soft white sand t crystal-clear waters. As the sun dipped toward the horizon, Feng Shihan spread out a blanket, pulling her down beside him.
"It’s perfect," she murmured, tracing lazy circles on his palm.
Feng Shihan turned to her, his gaze unreadable. "There’s one more thing," he said, reaching into his pocket.
Xue i’s breath caught.
But instead of a ring, he pulled out a small, folded piece of paper. She frowned, unfolding it to reveal...
A handwritten promise.
No matter where life takes us, I promise you this—every mont we share will be just as extraordinary as this one.
Her vision blurred slightly as she looked up at him. "Shihan..."
He pulled her into his arms, his lips brushing against hers in a kiss filled with unspoken vows.
"I an it, Xue i. This is just the beginning."
And as the waves lapped gently against the shore, she knew—wherever they went, whatever happened, as long as she had Feng Shihan by her side, life would always be a breathtaking adventure.
