I want you…
Me?
Yu Yan was utterly speechless by the sudden request that the man in front of her made. He was so elegant and seemed quite domineering if she should say, but he was actually a playboy?
In fact, she was not the only one who was stunned speechless. The guards were trying their best to keep their composure at the sudden request of their Boss. Was this really the same boss who could even point his gun to the head of a naked woman who wanted to seduce him?
Why did they feel that someone had swapped their Boss?
"I'm sorry, but I'm not for sale." Yu Yan immediately refused. She might want to destroy her family but she didn't want to disgrace herself in the process.
The man chuckled. "Who said that I want to buy you?"
"But you…?"
"Before that, which part of me do you think not good enough?" The man looked at Yu Yan with a brilliant smile.
The guards: "…" someone traded our cruel Boss with this womanizer!
They were silently weeping when they watched their Boss acted like that. Who in the world wouldn't tremble in fear when they heard the name of Dragon Clan? Especially if they heard the name of their Boss?
But this person before them…
Was he really the same person?
Yu Yan was speechless. Not good enough? It was her who should say that! She didn't know his identity but just based on the way the guards were extremely respectful to him added with this expensive room, it was not hard to guess that he must be extremely important.
"No, it's not that, but I don't even know you."
"You don't know me? Miss Yu, do you have memory loss?" The man asked again, feeling amused. Internally, he felt slight sinking feeling because he could clearly remember her and yet she… did she already forget about him?
Memory loss?
Looking at the dangerous man before her, Yu Yan narrowed her eyes. She did think that his voice was familiar when she first heard him talking but she didn't entertain the thoughts because it sounded so impossible. Now that she paid closer attention to him, his features became increasingly familiar to her.
The man slowly took off his black glasses and his silver eyes could be seen clearly.
'That's…'
Yu Yan's eyes widened in surprise. Her heart thumped as her beautiful memory in high school resurfaced once more. "L…Long Ying?"
The man, Long Ying, smiled in relief. "So you do remember."
Remember? How could she forget?
Being the unloved daughter in Yu Family, Yu Yan always felt so miserable at home. The only time when she felt happy was when she was in high school because that was the time she when first experienced what it meant to fall in love. At that time, she no longer cared for her family treatment because she was busy thinking about him.
Yes, the very man in front of her used to be her first love.
But she never confessed and the two of them remained friends until they graduated then went to different university. After all this years, Yu Yan had never thought of meeting with him again as they stopped communicating halfway in her university years.
She had moved on and tried to date other men. All this time, she thought that she already forgotten about him since so many years had passed.
Besides, people always said that first love was never meant to be.
But now…
Seeing Long Ying again, Yu Yan could feel her heart beat faster. The memories she thought she had buried and treated as nothing more than memory started to resurface. Did she… still have feelings for him?
"I…how can I forget?" Yu Yan murmured and looked away, her face turned red in embarrassment.
Long Ying had learned martial arts, so how could he miss her voice? Instantly, he felt as if his heart turned warm.
"I thought that you would have forgotten now that 8 years have passed."
8 years.
Yu Yan last met Long Ying in their graduation from High School. At that time, Long Ying still had short hair and dressed properly… well, his uniform was usually a mess and many students stayed away from him.
Her lips curled up when she recalled Long Ying's rascally look. Did she miss the past so much? However, it was also the truth that in her entire life, the best moment that she could think would be her High School days.
"I can say the same to you," Yu Yan replied back in slight tease.
Long Ying arched his eyebrows. Back when they were classmates, she was more open to him as they didn't know each other's background. "I still remember my nagging friend who's also my best friend."
"Right." Yu Yan smiled brightly.
2 Years of Restarting is the sequel from 1 Year of Beginning so there will be characters from the first series appearing here and they shared the same universe/world.
However, there's NO need to read 1 Year of Beginning to read 2 Years of Restarting because the two stories are different from each other. They can be read as separate story as they have different leads and theme.
