章節 92: I'm Already Yours

Memories are another name of expectations. And expectations are the name of disappointment. But disappointment is torturous.

Therefore, one way to describe memories is torture. The good, the bad, or just a plain memory, all bring unbearable torture with it.

But we often ignore the reality we are living in for the memories we hold dear of the past. And then one day, the same reality turns into another memory we hope to live again. The endless cycle doesn't end. Because we don't stop looking back and time doesn't stop looking forward.

He Jian was living that torture of memories.

Seeing him leave abruptly, Xu Mey got up intending to follow. Ye Jie held her wrist with a questioning gaze. She rummaged out her cell phone, clicked a few times and gave it to Ye Jie before following He Jian.

Ye Jie looked at her cell phone screen with a frown. Not knowing what she was intending to do. But his frown was instantly smoothened out when the screen displayed the beautiful scene.

The sun was setting in the horizon leaving an orange warm glow behind. The scene was from the exact amusement park they came to visit today. The difference lied in the pathway decorated with faux blue orchids. At the end of the pathway stood a wan and sallow but still an exquisitely beautiful girl. She looked so frail that it felt a simple breeze would topple her down.

She was wearing a beautiful yellow sundress with a leather belt around her waist and a big hat on her head. On the other end of the pathway was a small fountain. A group of orchestra players was behind the fountain and in front of the fountain, a handsome young man was standing with a bouquet of 99 red roses in his hand.

The girl took slow steps towards the young man with a beautiful smile on her face. As if nature was in cahoots with the young man, at the last step she took, the dim darkness engulfed the earth. But almost instantly, a million fairy lights lit up not just on the pathway but around where the frail girl was standing with her hand in the young man's huge ones.

The young man passed the bouquet to her, which she accepted with gratitude and reddened eyes. The orchestra played softly in the background. The young man went on his one knee and held her slender, frail hand in his and looked up into her eyes.

"Weiwei! I know all of this is very cheesy, " He pointed around at the decorations and laughed at himself. "I really never thought that I'd do something like this for anyone. But you, " He rubbed her fingers with his calloused thumb. "You made me a cheesy person. You always wanted to have a proposal at an amusement park between hundreds of people. Today, I'm here on my knee with all my heart. But I know my heart won't be enough. So, I gave you my soul as well. You can play with it all you want. Just don't leave me." His throat felt constricted at the end of the speech.

"Ah Jian! You know I can't accompany you for the rest of your lif-" The young man got up and placed his fingers on her lips, not letting her complete her sentence.

"If you can't accompany me for all of my life. Just be with me for the rest of your life." He said with tender filled eyes. "I gave you 99 roses. Do you know why?"

She shook her head as the tears trickled down her face. He wiped her tears with his hand saying, "The last rose, I'm keeping it for the day we get married. I want to give it to you when you rightfully becomes mine."

Her silent sobs got louder as she buried her face in his chest. "So, would you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" She nodded softly. "What did you say?" She nodded vigorously this time. "I can't hear it." He said in a teasing manner.

Her soft frail hands punched his chest and her tears mixed smile face looked at him. "How can I give you the honor? I'm the one honored to have someone like you, Ah Jian. You gave me love when I needed it, you gave me your time when I needed it, you even gave me support when I most needed it. I'm scared that if one day I asked for your life, you might even give that to me as well."

"I can't give my life to you, Weiwei, " He looked aggrieved. She was surprised to hear it. He caressed her cheek with the back of his hand and said, "Because it's already yours." Her eyes widened. It was a huge thing to say that his life already belonged to her, she didn't need to ask for it. She sobbed again leaning into his palm. "I love you the most in this world, Weiwei. Please be mine."

"I love you more than life itself, Ah Jian. What are you asking for? I'm already yours." He Jian pulled her in his embrace as a roar of applause rang out from around them.

And then, the fireworks painted the sky with beautiful colors making it even more enchanting.

Watching this scene play in the video, Ye Jie didn't realize that he was on the verge of crying himself. He didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. It was surprising to see a stoic person like He Jian to have such a soft and beautiful side to him.

Sorry for the late updates today.

But I still have the 2 chapters. So yay me!

Hope you enjoyed it. Even though it didn't have anything about Ye Jie or Xu Mey but since our He Jian is a very important character, I needed to disclose this part of his.

章節 93: Don't Mess Up

Xu Mey left the restaurant to look for He Jian. After a bit of wandering around, she found him standing before the fountain. She slowly came behind him and placed her hand on his shoulder. He Jian turned his head to look at her. Seeing her concerned look, he tried to smile but his smile looked rather sad to Xu Mey.

He placed his hand over Xu Mey's hand on his shoulder saying, "She didn't even give me the chance to give her the last rose." He said sotto voce.

Xu Mey had no idea how to console him at all. She took a deep breath. "Weiwei's loss was of life. She lost the battle of life and death. In your case, Jian Ge, you lost a part of yourself with her even when you're alive. Somehow, your loss seems bigger to me."

He Jian glanced at her face. He was trying to remember when he met her for the first time. She was bashful, weak, timid and fearful of everything around. She said to him back then, "Life teaches you to fear death. But death actually wants us to see the worst side of life. In the end, death always wins this battle. Because no matter what, living is so scary that we happily want to embrace the death."

Right now, that same girl had changed drastically. She didn't talk about death that easily as she used to do. He Jian was glad to know that she was accepting life instead of running behind death with potency.

He ruffled her hair lovingly and gave her a sincere smile. She smiled back at him and looped her arm with his as they headed back towards the restaurant.

After the meal, when everyone left the restaurant, Ye Jie walked beside Xu Mey and bent his head to whisper, "Did they break up or-?" He didn't dare to complete his speculation.

"She died." Xu Mey replied in a flat voice without any expressions on her face. Seeing Ye Jie in a daze, she added, "She was a cancer patient. She fought for 4 years but on the night before her wedding with Jian Ge, she lost the battle of life and death."

"Your friends have really complicated love lives," Ye Jie commented reeling from the love crisis her friends had.

But his simple comment worked as oil on the fire for Xu Mey. "Says the guy whose own girlfriend left him after 8 years of a relationship without any reason or rhyme." She was spitting fire and it took Ye Jie by surprise.

"Really? You wanna go down that road?" He asked with a quirk of a brow.

Xu Mey bit her tongue for not having control on it. "The four of them are like my dragon scales. Touch them and I'll show you what going berserk means in reality."

"I'll keep that in mind." Ye Jie replied obediently.

His calm reaction made Xu Mey feel guilty for bringing up his ex. 'I really need a filter for my mouth.' She thought.

"Did I go too far?" She asked after a moment's pause.

Ye Jie stared at her head drooped down in guilty and smiled. He stretched his hand towards her asking her to take it which she took without hesitation. "You didn't say anything wrong. And I don't want you to be guilty unless you really have committed a crime."

She stared at their intertwined hands and asked, "What if I have done a crime?"

Ye Jie stopped walking, turned his head and gazed into her black orbs. "Then I'll..." He paused in a thoughtful manner. Xu Mey was staring anxiously at his face. He smiled and added, "I'll make sure to stand by you through all of it."

"What if my past's tears are like a flood?" All of a sudden, she asked.

"Then I'll stand firm against that flood with you." He replied without missing a beat.

"What if you can't withstand the gush of tears with me?" She asked again.

He brought their intertwined hands up and left a fleeting kiss on her knuckles. Then he placed the joined hands against his heart and raised his other hand to caress her soft cheek. "If I can't withstand it... Then I'll drown in that gush of tears with you."

Xu Mey was stunned at his reply. She didn't realize when a tear trickled down her face. She only realized it when Ye Jie's thumb wiped the tear away and his soft lips touched her forehead. He buried her head in his chest and placed his chin on her head while stroking her hair. "I didn't know that my wife is so sensitive. You're so easily touched. What if I was lying to you?" He asked jokingly.

"I'll cut you into pieces myself… If you said it, you should keep your word. Otherwise, don't just throw out your words like pebbles." He heard her muffled voice making him chuckle.

"That's a very dangerous outcome." He made her look up at him. "I'll make sure to keep my words at all cost."

"You better do…" She grumbled.

"I will… I will… Now, please don't let another teardrop from your eye." He coaxed her.

"Who said it was a tear? Something went in my eye and that's why it was watery. Do you really think your words were that touching? Such wishful thinking." To hide her weakness, she draped the arrogance over herself making Ye Jie amused with his wife's antics.

"You… Are… One… Amazing… Wife…" He enunciated each word and ruffled her hair rashly making her scowl.

"Don't mess up my hair." She bellowed with a glare.
