Blair's birthday was on lunar June 6th. Chinese Valentine's Day ca a month after.
It had been one month since Wesley's last phone call. Blair kept herself busy at work every day, doing overti to keep her mind off him.
Life was dull without Wesley.
On the eve of Chinese Valentine's Day, Talbot called her out of the blue.
'Why is Talbot calling ? Did sothing happen to Wesley?' she wondered anxiously and picked up the phone in a hurry.
"Talbot, what's up?" she asked.
"It's ." Wesley's voice ca from the other end.
Blair gave a sigh of relief. "Are you with Talbot?" she asked.
"Yeah. What do you want as your present?"
"Huh?" she asked, confused as to what he was talking about.
"Tomorrow is lunar July 7th," Wesley reminded her. He had heard that this festival ant a lot to won. But apparently, Blair didn't even seem to know that this festival was the next day.
Blair was surprised that Wesley rembered. She smiled. "I'm surprised that you rembered. It isn't like you at all." Wesley had changed a lot.
"Because I'm in love," he replied simply.
Blair blushed, her heart leaping out from her chest. She remained indifferent even though she had been looking forward to Chinese Valentine's Day for the past month. "You don't have to buy anything."
"Okay."
"Huh?" she blurted in shock.
"I called to wish you. I may not have ti to talk to you tomorrow."
"Oh." Blair's face fell when she realized that she would be out of touch with him once again.
"Happy lunar July 7th, Blair!"
"Thank you, Wesley. Sa to you," she said with a sincere smile.
"I have to go now. Take care of yourself," Wesley said softly.
"Okay."
And the phone call ended just like that.
By the ti Blair got off work the next day, she had gotten neither a call nor any presents from Wesley.
'It's true that I told him he didn't have to buy a present. But I didn't think he really wasn't going to get anything, ' she thought sadly.
She looked at the rose bunny and scolded through clenched teeth, imagining the bunny
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other won.
Eventually she stord off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishnt.
s floor, Talbot was nowhere to be found.
She called him, but his phone had been turned off.
She placed her finger on the fingerprint scanner. With a beep, the door unlocked. Wesley hadn't erased her fingerprint from the scanner.
Blair let out a sigh of relief. She pushed the door open, walked inside and turned on the lights.
Everything was the sa as the day she had moved out.
She walked around, reminiscent of the past. For the longest ti, she stood in front of Wesley's bedroom. The door was closed.
She grabbed the doorknob and turned. Suddenly, soone grabbed her wrist. "Aargh!" she scread.
"Shh! It's !" A firm hand covered her mouth to stop her from screaming further. She was held fast against a broad chest, and a familiar scent wafted into her nose.
Her heart drumd with excitent. Her eyes brimd with tears. Removing his hand from her mouth, she asked, "When did you co back? Where's Talbot?"
Wesley didn't answer her. Lowering his head, he gave her a gentle kiss on her full lips. Her beautiful lips had kept him awake on so many lonely nights. "Blair, happy lunar July 7th!"
She looked at him tearfully. "Are you hurt? Let have a look at you."
She reached out her hands to examine him, but Wesley grabbed them and said, "I'm here to be with you. Nothing else matters. I have only two hours. So, let's not waste any more ti."
