CHAPTER 306

"No problem sir. It is just right on the opposite side from where we are now. You see, where that young lady is standing, that is the flower shop. They are known to have a variety of nice flowers. I bet the person you are buying it for would be thrilled," the driver informed him.

"Oh, thanks for the info."

"No problem sir. I would wait for you here."

"Good."

Without saying another word, he opened the door and stepped out of the car, crossing over to the other side about to enter the park.

From where he stood, he could now see the name of the flower shop clearly and when he looked down, he saw the young lady the driver talked about and his breath ceased instantly.

The young lady standing there was none other than,,,

"Li Jing." His eyes narrowed further and his lips curved upwards to a knowing smile. His heartbeat increased as well, as his mind, body and soul anticipated meeting her. He missed her so much.

Due to how busy he had been with everything being choked up, he did not have much time to speak to her, that was why he made sure to rush things with his work, just so he could finish a week early and pay Li Jing a surprise visit on Valentine’s day.

He had anticipated this day and decided not to tell her of his coming. He wanted to give her the best Valentine gift there was.

But here he was, going to purchase flowers to ask her out to be his Val for Valentine and she was here too.

Could the coincidence not be spectacular?

Just as he was about making the first move and taking a step in her direction, he heard the door open from the shop and a familiar person emerged, walking towards her.

Instantly Ye Cheng stopped in his tracks and watched what was going to happen. He had the urge to take a step and make his way towards them when suddenly his phone began to ring.

On a normal day, he would have ignored the call and made his way still to meet Li Jing but the ringtone that came with it, signifying that it was an important call.

Quickly he took his phone out and looked at the screen.

"Mother. Why is she calling me now, all of a sudden?" He paused, not really sure of whether to pick the call at that moment or not, after some thought on it, he ignored the call and took his step forward, entering the park.

He had not gotten far when his phone began to ring again, by this time Tang Zixin was already stranding with Li Jing.

"Oh, mother! I better answer the call before she gets too worried that something might be wrong," Ye Cheng advised himself and stopped to answer the call.

Meanwhile, as soon as Li Jing saw Tang Zixin walk out of the shop, her smile returned but faded soon enough when she noticed he had just a bouquet of roses in his hands.

"Hey."

She did not respond as her eyes remained fixed on the roses. "I thought you were getting for both Auntie and Yin Lifen?" Li Jing asked, trying to clarify her doubt.

"Yes, I know I said that but, well... I lied."

"Hmm, Tang Zixin, what is going on here?" Her forehead creased and her brows furrowed slightly at him. She did not understand what was happening but her instincts told her it was time.

"Okay. Li Jing, I bought this for you," he started and brought the bouquet in front of her, presenting it to her then waited for her to collect it.

"Thanks. I love it but auntie and..."

"I would get them something else. I hope you would appreciate my heart?" Tang Zixin asked, moving closer to her while warming her heart with his nice smile. "So beautiful."

Li Jing gulped silently as she stared into those eyes of his. Her heart began to race she could feel a certain attraction with him but that was it. She liked him, he was caring and handsome with a nice heart, who wouldn’t.

All through their outing that day, it felt like they were drawing closer together and chemistry was already there between the two of them.

He was extra caring and nice to her. She felt safe and happy being with him, regardless, her heart still wondered about someone else. A part of her wished it wasn’t going to be today but who was she deceiving? She had read all the signs.

"Li Jing, I have known you for quite some time now, even longer than you have known me," Tang Zixin began. "But never have I ever felt this close to you. Today, I feel we have crossed a certain stage in our friendship and I do not want it to end."

"Okay?"

"Hear me out. I love hanging out with you, no matter how little the time is. And ever since you came into my life, it hasn’t been the same." Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fɪre

’Please no... God, not now,’ Li Jing chanted in her mind. She knew this day would come but she hoped it wouldn’t be soon.

"I long to protect you, long to have you close and to be good friends with you, Li Jing. When I am with you, I am lost for words at expressing how I really feel. You bring joy into this my lonely life. I am not good at flattering and stuff or with words to cajole a girl, what I am trying to say is that I love you, Li Jing."

BADUM!

"I have loved you for quite some time now and did not know how you would respond, so I kept it from you."

"Then what changed, Tang Zixin?" She paused her lips and awaited his answer.

"I thought I could erase this feeling I have for you with time, but then, the feelings only got deeper and now, I can no longer hide it. Li Jing, I love you, so very much. You have brought joy back to my life and I do not want it to end. I want to be with you if you give me the chance."

"Tang Zixin, I cann..."

He knew what she was going to say, he knew she was not going to accept him at least not now but he was determined to not give up and still win her heart.

All this while during their outing, he felt like kissing her. He was so drawn to her that he wished he could just hug her and remain like that with her but he couldn’t and now, it was already getting to the end of the day, yet he had done nothing.

His heart skipped a bit at her words of almost rejection and just before she could pronounce what she was about to say, he leaned in close, holding her head in place with one hand and pressing his lips against hers.

At the same time, Ye Cheng who had been on the call with his mother suddenly turned around and was about to check if Li Jing was still there when he saw the sight before him and stopped talking.
