Song Mei removed the lid from the pan ,and
WOOSH , the aroma of sweet and sour ribs filled her nostrils .
She inhaled it deeply , before having a bite of it .
"Mmhhmmm", she moaned in satisfaction , it was really tasty .
But the question here is 'Who cooked it ? '
"Ahem ! "
Lu YingJun was standing behind her , seeing her enjoy it alone , huh ! how could that be possible ? in her dreams ? well only in her "dreams".
"Wanna gobble all , alone ? "
"Gobble ?", I was just tasting it !, RUDE !, Song Mei didn't liked the way he asked her , what is the meaning of Gobble , can't he say some polite words ? .
Song Mei turned around , the lights of candles casted on Lu YingJun's face , it was an alluring sight. His sharp facial features were highlighting in the dim light of candles .
Studying his features carefully , she realised she never noticed him this carefully back then , May be because of Han Sheng , she was too occupied with him , otherwise why would she leave such a handsome gem .
"Song Mei ? " , is she on a pause mode ? , Lu YingJun was staring at her , hoping for a reply.
When Song Mei heard that husky voice , She snapped back to reality , smiling , with the best smile, she replied,
"Oh ! no , I was just tasting it , by the way Mr. Lu knows how to cook ? WOW, I'm amazed " , she was trying to butter him. up , because the ribs were really tasty , she would be a fool if she said it was not good.
"Is it tasty ?" , Lu YingJun asked , he was impressed by how Song Mei praised him .
" Yup , very much " , she was smiling cheekily , nodding her head in approval.
' So pure ' , Lu YingJun was a bit dazed , Song Mei was beautiful indeed and her smile was not less than a 1000 bulb lights , very bright , the almost perfect pair of teeth were shinning like those in the Adds on the T.V.
They both together had the dinner.
A candle light dinner ,
May be it was fate for them to have such a meeting and encounters to remember .
After all the fate cannot be changed , the red strings had been tied .
The future awaited for them .
Today was a bit long day , maybe because it was a start of a new life , a new journey with someone close yet so distant , a new way to look things , a fresh start .With all the baffled ways and a different world way more harsh and cruel .
Perhaps now there will be a new beginning of life, perhaps the relationship which was left behind will now have to be carried along. Now is the time to look back, even if not wanting to, those secrets which were buried in the depths, now is the time to remove them With our own hands.
No one's hands are clean, everyone's hands are filled with the dirt that is inside this world. Getting your hands dirty probably won't matter Because the dirt does not feel dirty, and Such things never underestimate their ego. But a shoe is a shoe, whether you wear it on your feet or on your head.
That day the storm created havoc, as if the skies had fallen, many were killed in it.
The areas that were near the city survived, but the village suffered more damage, Song Mei and others were didn't had to face the storm but . The poor had to .
Immediately after the storm help was provided to the survivors , many individuals and families had come up to help , in which one of them were the Chen's as well .
Grandma Chen had personally went to the affected villages , donating and distributing , money , food , clothes and many other necessities to the villagers .
Now Lu YingJun was staying at the Old Chen House .
After the dramatic first day , it was all normal , Wen Sao and Lu YingJun were working on the project that was starting soon on lands near the village .
Song Mei accompanied them as well with some small ideas and a little bit of advice .
But Lu YingJun had forgotten something , that was well hidden from him by someone .
One fine day , when Lu YingJun and Wen Sao returned from the project sight , all tiered and stressed , work was a lot these days the company was facing a hard time , many investors were visiting the project sight , it was hard to even breath peacefully , meetings were after every minute , one ended the other was to be attended .
After resting his restless body on the couch , Lu YingJun asked Wen Sao who was still standing beside him , " How many days are left for us to go back to the city ? "
"Only 3 ? the time is running , boss I don't think we will be able complete this project on time , looking at how the investors are rushing and the demands of the client , -"
" Well , when I am present , you don't have to work your mind . "
