Chapter 808 - Won\'t be home early today.
"I am sorry, Director Qi. But whatever you said, I could not agree as it doesn\'t make any sense." Feng Yi Lan said, shaking her head in serious disapproval. Hey eyes not giving any hope to Qi Shuai, who was still kneeling in front of her.
At her reply, the man was at loss but he wasn\'t finding any word to complain. He wanted Yi Lan to come to him, to begin a new beginning with him. But somewhere he has long realized that he could chase after her; do everything for her except forcing her to accept him and his love.
"Yi-Yi Lan, I accept and I agree as well. Reject me, as I said, I won\'t mind. But you will always find me chasing after you with all my patience and might until one day you agree to trust me again. And …" Qi Shuai tried. His words were more to convince himself about the hope he still holds deep down in his heart. But his feelings only got heavy looking at the hardened expressions of the woman.
"I could not agree to that as well, Director Qi." Feng Yi Lan said straight, without showing any hints of bending. But just when everyone thought that was the end of the rejection and nothing pleasant could come anymore, a change got on Feng Yi Lan\'s expression, making it turn a little warm, as she reached out to wrap her arm around the man, startling him to his core.
"I cannot agree to that, Brother Qi. And I would never agree with that. Be it in the past, in the present, or in the future. I could simply not. I could simply not let my past and memories go, even if it has brought me immense pain. Because, in the end, it has something that means almost everything to me. And that\'s you. I could never let you go even if I get to promise myself a thousand times. "
Feng Yi Lan said. Her eyes staring deep into his, making him believe the honesty she held in her words.
But for Qi Shuai, it was still unexpected. Though he has always wanted this outcome to come, still for some reason, he has not brought himself to believe that he will be getting it so easily. So when heard Yi Lan saying everything so sincerely, he could not help but feel all dazed.
"Yi Lan, that … I …" After a long time he began, just to confirm that whatever he had heard before wasn\'t some of his dreams rather a reality. But before even he could make a phrase with meaning, his words were stuffed back into his throat as the next moment, Yi Lan daringly tip-toed to lean and place her lips over his.
Her actions further only surprised Qi Shuai, but this time he was no longer doubtful because at a distance he could clearly hear the erupting cheers of the people, encouraging them for their love.
His lips curled up, when realized as he continued to support the initiative the woman had shown, while his arms went to hold her by her waist, equally relishing the moment. He has long waited for this to come and finally it was there. How could he not be happy?
At the moment, he felt like none could be as happy as him in this whole world. Something more was going inside him which he could not explain in words. Something with a feeling of excitement, mixed with the flutter of nervousness. Something that was not letting him go the string of their special moment.
After a good time, finally, their kiss came to an end. Feng Yi Lan was one to pull away first. She was left all breathless. Her eyelashes fluttered a few times as she looked at Qi Shuai to ask, "Is it believable now?"
"Huh?"
She chuckled at the stagnant look of confusion on his face. "I thought you weren\'t able to believe my words earlier. So, I chose to relay it through my actions. Do you believe it now?"
Qi Shuai stepped back, scratching the back of his neck. "Ohh, I wasn\'t expecting that. I thought that this time, it would be me confessing to you. But again, your words and way have overpowered my plans. Seems like I have to try harder next time".
At his words, Feng Yi Lan only raised her eyebrows. "Another time? Will there be one?".
The man nodded at once, without hesitating. "Of course there will be more coming. I have just confessed my feelings to you. I have yet to propose an engagement and marriage to you."
"Ohh, so finally, Director Qi has come to understand the pace he should follow in chasing after girls. I am impressed". At this moment, overhearing their talks, Li Xue interrupted, while walking her way to them.
Hearing her coming, both Yi Lan and Qi Shuai turned to look at her with a sheepish smile and grin over their faces. "Of course, I needed to understand it soon to not lose my opportunity Sister-in -…". He said, almost forgetting to notice his addressing words. But just on time, the two women coughed to proper him in his mistake, giving him a glare of cautiousness.
"Oops, I mean Xiao Xue" He corrected in his voice before whispering in a low tone, "Sorry, I almost gave it out but believe me that wasn\'t intentional. I failed to notice that there are still people around".
Li Xue smiled. Of course, she knew that wasn\'t intentional. The man was so happy that he was almost flying over the clouds. How could he keep himself under restraints at this moment?
She shook her head at his valid exaggeration as she darted her eyes to look at her friend. "Aye, someone was trying hard to prove my intuitions wrong earlier. But facing the love confession coming, she wasn\'t able to hold herself back from accepting it. Are there any words to explain this now?"
Feng Yi Lan\'s gaze immediately avoided Li Xue, as she hurriedly said, "I wasn\'t wrong. All this now is because of the bet I lost to you early. Since I have always been sincere in my words, I could not back out from the promise. Don\'t think it any otherwise".
Li Xue could not help but roll her eyes. "Really?"
Feng Yi Lan nodded and Li Xue could only continue. "Fine, then, later don\'t forget to thank me properly for this. Especially you, Director Qi. For now, I will ask for my leave. I need to return and see Mr. Beelzebub and my princess first. Earlier, his phone was unreachable. He must be at home." She said, ready to leave.
But from behind, Qi Shuai halted her to say, "But Xiao Xue, I think he won\'t be home early today. He had the things to attend at the main family mansion. And it might take him a long there."
