Qi Yan inhaled softly as he gazes up at the eighteen-storey building in front of him while waiting for Feng Tian's arrival. The streetlight, which had been doing an impressive job exhibiting his handsome features, suddenly flickering for a second before lighting up again.
Lightly adjusting the suit jacket he was holding, he slowly made his way towards the stairs to take his seat. He had immediately run after Feng Tian after seeing her exit the party's venue, but somehow he had missed her. Believing she probably went home, he had immediately hailed a taxi to bring him to her apartment building, only to discover that she hasn't arrived yet.
Exactly 20 minutes later, a white Mercedes van slowly parked in front of the apartment, immediately standing, Qi Yan sighed in relief as he watched Feng Tian slowly alight from the van, her face brightening up as she waves to the familiar gray-headed fellow, who smirked immediately his eyes landed on Qi Yan before waving her goodbye.
Quickly masking his green-eyed feeling, Qi Yan move closer to Feng Tian who gasped when he suddenly pulls her into his arms; Surprised by his action, Feng Tian slowly tries to lift her head to face him, only for him to push her head back to his chest.
"What…"
Eventually recovering from her shock, Feng Tian slowly wrap her hand around him, they both stood in each other's embrace for a while, both wishing for the moment not to end as they continue to savor each other's presence before Qi Yan finally pulled away from the embrace. Slightly bringing his face down to her level, Qi Yan could not help the soft smile that appeared on his face as he admired the beauty in front of him, everything about her was captivating, starting from her slender eyebrows to her thin cheeks and heart-shaped lips which left her eyes. The deep light blue orbs that Qi Yan was willing to submit himself to its will, not caring about the consequences. Slowly lifting his hand to caress her cheeks, Qi Yan sighed as he watch her lean closer to his touch,
"What am I going to do with you?" Qi Yan whispered huskily, even though all his senses keeps telling him she was bad for him, he could not just bring himself to listen to them, how can he? When all he wanted to do to the woman from the moment he laid his eyes on her was to kiss, hold and protect her for the rest of his life. He was scared, especially whenever his mind reminded him that she could be part of those people who ruin his brother's life, but at the same time, he felt that all reasons became unreasonable whenever he was with her.
Noticing the look on Qi Yan's face, Feng Tian felt her heart beat quicken,
"What are you doing?" she asked, feeling a blush creep up her cheek as she notices her breathless state, Qi Yan smirked as he slowly places his forehead on hers,
"What I should have done the moment I saw you in that dress." He replied before pressing his lips to hers.
Feng Tian froze for a moment as she felt her entire resolve melt into the kiss, only returning to the present when she felt a tug on her lips, lightly responding with a light gasp, Qi Yan smiled, pulling her closer before using the opportunity to deepen the kiss.
The kiss lasted for a few minutes until the need to breathe began to feel necessary again. Feng Tian slowly peeled her eyes open only to find Qi Yan staring back at her with a smug smile,
"That was your first, wasn't it?" Qi Yan muttered breathlessly before smiling as he noticed the bright stain on her cheek, he could not believe Feng Tian has never been kissed before, could this mean she has never been in a relationship, Qi Yan wondered. Softly sighing as he watched her hide her face in embarrassment, Qi Yan smiled again, gently licking his lips before holding her chin up.
"God! As much as I would love to kiss you again, it's been a long night, you need your rest." Qi Yan said to Feng Tian who nodded slightly. Gently pressing a kiss to her forehead, Qi Yan sighed again before pulling himself away from her,
"Good night."
Finally finding her voice back, Feng Tian muttered a good night before watching him leave.
After a few minutes of staring into space, Feng Tian smiled before picking up her phone to shoot Li Wei a text.
The next morning, Feng Tian woke up with a bright smile on her face, as if she didn't just drop a huge bomb on the entire business world that morning. The whole city was shocked on hearing the news of Royals group newly signed business partner, Samuel.
It was yet a completely unexpected move on Wang Hai's side, even the entire city could not stop asking how did they do it? How did this happen overnight? Immediately the media began to put themselves to work, and within a few hours, the news about Samuel's cooperation with Royals became the hottest search on the internet.
Surprisingly, that day was also the day she was scheduled for an interview with Nanchun press, the whole broadcasting station almost turned upside down as they continue to prepare for Feng Tian's arrival.
"So you are telling me, that F-Feng Tian, that Feng Tian is coming here for the interview, and she wants Song Jiayi to do it, not Bai Yi Chen." The production manager who was in disbelief slowly said as he tries to process the information correctly,
"Are you kidding! I can barely deal with Bai Yi Chen and you want me to switch to another anchor, I completely understand, even I don't like him, but this…"
"Mo Bai, I know how you feel, but… there's nothing I can do, such a big opportunity this is for us, I can't just throw it away, so let's just do it, besides, the higher-ups accepted without informing me too."
"What? Just do it, do you think this is like making a paper boat!"
"Hey! Stop yelling, I'm stressed as it is, I don't even know what to say to Bai Yi Chen when he gets here, and besides, it's not you who is going to do the interview, it's her." The director yelled before shifting his gaze towards Jiayi, who could not help but feel nervous, she surely did not expect Feng Tian to truly stick to her words.
"Jiayi, you can do it, right, if you are nervous tell me, I will just tell them to cancel it, ok?" the director said with a surprisingly calm expression, causing the production manager to snort in disbelief at his pretentious attitude.
"Ey, director I know you are just trying to make me feel better, I know you can't cancel it, don't worry, I will try my best." Jiayi replied.
"Alright, I'm trusting you, by all means, you must not mess up because we are all going to die if you do, and don't forget to take nerves calming pill and check your script again."
The director said with a fake smile before gesturing that they can both take their leave.
On stepping out of the director's office, Mo Bai yelled out in anger as he roughly tugged at his hair, not caring about the passersby, his disheveled appearance was clear enough to show that he was stressed, slowly turning to face Jiayi, he sighed.
"You… how did you do it? I mean, what did you give Feng Tian to make her request for you?"
"Miss Jiayi didn't do anything to me."
Mo Bai suddenly heard a voice say behind him, slowly turning to face the source of the voice, his eyes widen in recognition as his eyes landed on Feng Tian,
"I said, Miss Jiayi did not do anything to me, you can just think of it as my way of doing things."
Feng Tian said with a smile as she slowly walked to stand in front of Jiayi,
"Nice seeing you again, Miss Jiayi."
"M-miss Feng, you are here…" Mo Bai stuttered out as he continued to stare at Feng Tian who smiled as she took notice of the name tag on his chest before stretching forth her hand,
"Nice to meet you, producer Mo." Mo Bai was about to reply when suddenly, he was cut off by Bai Yi Chen,
"What is going on here?"
