Zhun, my love for you, why do you torment me so? Yesterday I received a letter from my mother in Yunxi, urging me to arrange a meeting with her. It’s understandable for a family to be anxious when their daughter is nearing 26.
Leave Dongjing, leave Zhun. The decision was made.
“Zhun, after work, let’s have a drink; I’ll treat you,” the female protagonist Jitian Youjia made it clear she was trying to win over this mixed-blood handsome man.
Zhun was waiting for me; I have much to tell her! “No need,” he rejected her outright.
Leaving the filming set, Zhun couldn’t be seen anywhere. Had she left? Just like that, leaving him in the deep night?
“Zhun, can’t find a ride?” Youjia drove up and stopped in front of him.
“Do you still want to invite me for a drink?” He put on his coat, flashing his most charming smile.
“Get in,” she opened the car door.
Lingmu Zhun had bought a sandwich from a convenience store and drove back, just in time to see Zhun getting into the car.
After Zhong Zeqian abruptly left the dinner table, Feng Jian Ya took out a gift for Ye Feng from his room.
“Sister, this is for you.” He handed her the book he had hidden behind his back. “The latest manga from CLAMP.”
Her eyes lit up for a moment, but she didn’t take it. “No, I don’t enjoy reading manga anymore.”
“That’s impossible.” He put the book down, “You clearly still liked it when you were in Taiwan.”
“There’s nothing in this world that can’t be abandoned.” She said calmly.
“What do you mean?” He didn’t understand.
“Whether it’s the joy of the moment or the love for someone, they all fade away quickly. I can’t believe in eternity. So, Ya, your love for me must be just temporary.” She stopped him from speaking, “You keep longing for what you can’t have, unable to let go. In reality, it’s just an illusion. Have you ever considered this possibility?”
Ya pulled her hand, “Come with me!”
“Where are you taking me?” She was a bit worried as he drove off without a word. “I was just expressing my thoughts; there’s no need to be so harsh.”
He drove on, letting her talk to herself.
The car stopped by the sea, and he opened the door for her to get out.
“What are we doing here?” The wind was cold, and she tightened her coat.
He didn’t speak, just pointed at the sky. Ye Feng looked up.
“Wow, what a beautiful starry sky!” The stars dotted the black velvet sky like jewels.
“You can’t see the stars in the city. Do you remember ‘A Promise Under the Stars’? Bei Cun really made a promise to his beloved under this very sky.” He suddenly threw her down and strode into the sea.
“Ya Er, come back!” What was he thinking, going into the sea in such cold weather, wearing so little? “Come back to me!”
“I ask the stars in the sky to bear witness for me, I ask the vast sea to bear witness for me, Ya Er, my wind between the leaves, I love only Ye Feng in this life!” He looked at her, “I will love you for a lifetime!”
Ya Er! Ye Feng hugged her tightly, feeling as if electric currents were passing through her. He was her brother, loving her would not bring happiness! But why, why do you love me so?
“For no reason.” He seemed to have a spiritual response, “My promise to you is to love you for a lifetime.”
“No!” She shook her head violently, tears streaming down like rain. “I can’t love you, don’t you understand?”
“It doesn’t matter, as long as you’re by my side, that’s enough. I will protect you until I return to the dust. I don’t want to deceive you, truly, only death could make me change my mind.”
The brilliant stars in the sky seemed to also affirm his vow, and Ye Feng saw a shooting star streak across the sky. Unable to resist, she rushed into the water, embracing him and crying out loud.
“Love is so painful!” Ya Er tightly embraced Ye Feng.
Chapter Seven
“Ya Er, get up.” Ye Feng went to his room to wake him.
“Five more… minutes…” He turned over and continued to sleep.
She lifted his blanket, heavens! He wasn’t wearing any clothes! After four years in Japan, he hadn’t learned anything good. Her heart skipped a beat irregularly.
“Your face is so red.” He caught her off guard and pulled her onto the bed.
“What are you doing?” Before she could scream, he had already kissed her. “Mmph.” She glared at him helplessly.
“I want to make you forget everything with action.” His voice was deep, and his smile was faint, almost imperceptible. Her legs had already gone weak. “Come to bed with me, Ye Feng.”
“You lunatic!” She pushed him away forcefully, kicking him out of bed. “Can’t teach an old dog new tricks! Go die!”
“Fine! You’ve hurt me!” He kept whining, his beautiful eyes looking at her as if she was already his. In response, she mercilessly threw a pillow at him.
“Brush your teeth and wash your face, go! If you don’t behave, I won’t give you any food!” She walked out of his room without looking back. It was too dangerous! In the past, she would have been more accommodating.
Ya Er ate her breakfast while laughing. From now on, she’d have to wake him every day; one day, she might forget her resentment.
“Are you done eating or not? You’re unbearable.” Ye Feng felt a bit awkward due to his behavior. “Stop laughing!”
“I’m done, Ye Feng.” Since last night, he had stopped calling her “sister.”
“Be careful on the road, brother.” She said this with a hint of mockery.
“Send me off.” She had no choice but to walk him to his car and then to the door.
“Can I have a goodbye kiss?” He rolled down the car window and stuck his head out.
“Keep dreaming.” Ye Feng pointed at his forehead. Something flashed before her eyes.
“What happened?” She looked up, having just heard the sound of a camera.
“Definitely those paparazzi.” Ya-ye laughed nonchalantly. “I’m out of here.”
Shanben Yidan, a photographer known for secretly capturing celebrities’ private photos, hadn’t been in the news recently. Indeed, he had another lover.
That afternoon, the entertainment sections of major newspapers published this photo, using it as the headline. “Ya-ye’s Latest Love Interest.” “Mysterious Lover Revealed.” “Popular Singer Ya-ye — The Nth Love Object.”
“Ha-ha.” From the moment he got the newspaper, Ya-ye couldn’t suppress his laughter. They thought Feng Feng was my lover. Are we really a match? I’m so excited that someone actually pairs us together for the first time!
“Why is he laughing like this?” Bing-shi Qing-jing looked at Ya-ye, who was laughing uncontrollably in the corner. “Even if it were true, there’s no need to be so happy.”
“Of course, it’s funny, Feng Feng is his sister.” Even the old and honest Tian Zhongwen couldn’t guess Ya-ye’s thoughts.
Qing-jing sighed, he really is quite slow!
Zhong Zaiqian’s face was gloomy, understanding the situation. Ya-ye, have you fallen for your own sister?
Limu Chun and Zhu Nei Zheng-xu had just gotten out of the car when a swarm of reporters rushed towards them.
“Miss Limu, you are Feng’s agent, can you tell us about Ya-ye’s lover?”
“Mr. Zhu, you must know something too, right?”
“Sorry, we have nothing to say.” Chun, pulling Zheng-xu, struggled to escape into the company. There were guards at the door, so the reporters didn’t dare to forcefully barge in.
“Why didn’t you tell the reporters they are siblings?” In the elevator, it was just the two of them.
“Ya-ye told me not to. Actually, he didn’t want you guys to know either.” Initially, it was Ye Fengfeng who introduced herself and revealed her identity to others.
“Did you let me chase Ye Fengfeng for this reason?” Zhu Nei Zheng-xu was quite sharp.
“Yes.” She knew she couldn’t fool him, “I wanted to stop Ya-ye.”
“That kid is simply perverse. He even goes after his own sister!” He shook his head, Ya-ye, what are you up to?
