Love So Sweet

Her lips curled into a sheepish smile.

Fang Su Jin inhaled a deep breath and forced the smile to disappear from her face. She raised her hand and placed it on top of her chest. Her heart was beating fast and she felt as if she no longer have control of it.

She felt a little silly.

Knowing that the others were still waiting for her, Fang Su Jin quickly put down the flowers on her bed. Just as she was about to turn around, Fang Su Jin noticed something falling down from the bouquet.

Fang Su Jin stared at it for a long time before picking it up. It was a greeting card from the bouquet.

Her eyes flickered upon noticing the handwriting on the card. It was from Zhang Yi Hai.

Fang Su Jin read the card and suddenly her face turned redder.

On the card, Zhang Yi Hai wrote that she was as beautiful as the roses.

.....

His words shocked her so much that the card in her hand dropped to the ground. Fang Su Jin put both hands on her cheek and thought that they felt especially warm.

She did not expect that Zhang Yi Hai would be really good at sweet talking.

Her phone rang, snapping her out of her trance. Fang Su Jin glanced at the clock and headed out again.

As she reached the lobby, Fang Su Jin saw that both Zhang Yi Hai and Fang Yu Ting were already waiting for her. The two men were chatting amiably without her by their side.

Just as she was heading to their side, Fang Su Jin noticed Teacher Jiang entering the hotel in a rush.

Coincidentally, their gazes met.

Teacher Jiang’s smile widened when he saw her. “Su Jin. You’re here.”

“Teacher Jiang.” Fang Su Jin nodded. She walked over to the elder man and smiled. “Did you just return from the exhibition hall?”

The man nodded. “Hm... It’s great that I run into you here. I have something to discuss with you.” The elder man gave her a look over. “Su Jin, you’re going out?”

“Un.” Fang Su Jin nodded. “I’m going out with my cousin and friend for dinner.” She glanced at Zhang Yi Hai and her cousin. They both stood from their seat and walked over to her side. “Teacher Jiang, would you like to join us as well?”

Teacher Jiang hesitated.

Just in time, Zhang Yi Hai and Fang Yu Ting reached to her side.

“What’s going on?” Fang Yu Ting asked. He looked at the mentor and nodded. “Su Jin, who is he?”

“Brother Yu Ting, this is my mentor, Teacher Jiang,” Fang Su Jin introduced. “Teacher Jiang, this is my cousin, Fang Yu Ting.”

The two men exchanged a brief greeting.

“Teacher Jiang, I was about to go with my cousin for lunch,” Fang Yu Ting said. “Would you like to come and join us as well? We’re going to have our dinner at the restaurant across the street.”

“Teacher Jiang, let’s discuss what you wanted to say while we had our dinner, alright?” Fang Su Jin spoke.

Meanwhile, Zhang Yi Hai lowered his gaze as he heard their conversation. When he came, he was expecting to spend his day with Fang Su Jin and discussed her decision. However, it seemed that his plan was not going as well as he had expected.

First, Fang Su Jin’s cousin suddenly appeared. And now, her mentor was going to join them for dinner as well.

Zhang Yi Hai did not know whether he would get a chance to talk to Fang Su Jin at all.

“Then, let’s go together,” Teacher Jiang finally agreed.

Zhang Yi Hai heaved a breath as he tried to hide his disappointment.

He turned to Fang Su Jin and met her gaze. However, she quickly looked away to hide from him.

Seeing that Fang Yu Ting and Teacher Jiang were chatting, Zhang Yi Hai walked closer to Fang Su Jin and spoke, “Sister Fang.”

Fang Su Jin stood up straight as she heard his voice. “What is it?”

A faint smile curled on his lips when he saw Fang Su Jin’s anxious look. “Are you doing this on purpose?”

Fang Su Jin clenched her hand, hoping that her chaotic heart would calm down. “What do you mean? What did I do?” She looked at Zhang Yi Hai and blinked her eyes innocently.

“Sister Fang, you are not deliberately avoiding me, right?”

“Of course, not.”

“Do you still remember that we have something to discuss?”

Fang Su Jin was getting anxious. Zhang Yi Hai was standing too close to her and her heart was unable to calm down. “This is not the appropriate time for us to talk, isn’t it? Let’s wait until later.”

Zhang Yi Hai chuckled. “Alright.”

Fang Su Jin heaved a breath in relief as she was no longer pressured to give Zhang Yi Hai her answer.

“I already wait for a month,” Zhang Yi Hai spoke. “Sister Fang, I can wait for a few more hours.”

Fang Su Jin stared at Zhang Yi Hai, wondering what he meant. Does it mean that he was going to wait until her cousin leave to talk to her?

Was he that anxious to know her answer?

Suddenly, Fang Su Jin recalled how she has been waiting for Zhang Yi Hai to contact her in Y City. After his unexpected confession, the man has been very quiet.

He did not even make an attempt to contact her.

It made her wonder if he really did like her or if was he just playing around.

As those thoughts came to her mind, Fang Su Jin began to feel unhappy again.

“Su Jin, what are you doing?”

Coincidentally, Fang Yu Ting turned to look at her.

The man waved his hand at her. “Come on. I’m sure that you are hungry.”

Taking a deep breath, Fang Su Jin went over to her cousin’s side, leaving Zhang Yi Hai alone.
