“Is that all right?” Ming came to me and looked down at me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Through the transparent lens, his eyes were gentle and with a little expectation. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked at him and thought about what happened in the past. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ming was very good to Lester and me. Although his love was not vigorous, it was warm. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Maybe such feelings could last long. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I just thought for a moment and nodded, “OK, I’ll listen to you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ming knelt on one knee and held my hand. His clear eyes were full of joy, “thank you. Give me the rest of your life. I will give you the best.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I don’t need the best.” I shook my head. “I want you to be with us.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I meant Lester, of course. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Thank you for the opportunity.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I couldn’t help being embarrassed. “You get up. You seem to be proposing.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“OK.” Ming stood up at once. His hand fell gently on my head. “I have to propose to you ceremoniously.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I don’t mean that…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I mean that.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ming held my hand tightly and smiled all the time. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He seemed to be very pleased with the fact that I had agreed to his proposal. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
James looked and nodded. “OK, that’s it. I will inform them.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ming took me away. In the car he asked me, “what are you going to do next? I suggest you stay in York. If you are free recently, I will take you to see the new community or the place you like. And I think you can bring Lester here. Dad will definitely like him.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I listened to his next plan, I was not happy at all. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Although I thought long ago that I would probably marry Ming in the end. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was true now, but I was in a heavy mood. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“What’s the matter?” I didn’t speak so he asked with concern. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’m fine. I listen to you. I think about going back for a few days and telling Master about it. After all, there is no team here. If I come here, I have a lot to think about.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Marlin and Inez were not good to me, so in my heart Murray was my father. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Then I’ll be with you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No, I’ll go back by myself. Don’t worry. I have no problem myself.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
In order to reassure him, my hand gently shook the hand he put on the car. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He was silent for a moment and said, “OK.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After that accident, Ming moved all my things to my home in York No.1, including my computer and professional books. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
We went upstairs together by elevator. Looking at my house and his house, I hesitated and said, “I have some work to do.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
With that, I opened the door of my house. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ming stood behind me. I couldn’t see his expression. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He was silent for a few seconds and said, “well, what’s your next plan? When are you going back to Sceaux?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’ll leave in a few days.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Well, you should be careful at home and call me if you need.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Listening to Ming’s concern for me, I felt guilty immediately. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I decided to leave in two days because I was worried about Sean. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I went into the room and sat in front of the computer. I looked at the black computer screen and my brain was blank. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
How was Sean doing now? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Losing something so important must have a great impact on him now. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Sean was powerful. He must have no problem. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I sat there and thought. I fell asleep in the chair unconsciously. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After a long time, the cell phone on the table was buzzing. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I felt my cell phone with my hand in a daze. I put it in my ear and said, “hello.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“It’s me.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After a moment’s silence, I heard a male voice over the phone. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was a little hoarse. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was a little low. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I thought for a while and then I realized it was Sean! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Sean!” I woke up immediately. I opened my eyes and asked, “I heard something happened to your company. Where are you now? How are you?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I finished asking these questions, I realized that I had done something wrong. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He seemed surprised. Then I heard him chuckle. “Oh, I’m in a better mood when I know you care about me.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No, I just…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Needless to say.” He interrupted, “where are you? I want to see you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Hearing his words, my heart beat faster. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I want to…” I stopped. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Tell me where you are. I’ll come to you.” He paused and said, “or you can open the door directly.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Open the door?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was stunned. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Was Sean at my door? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It was impossible. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Yes, open the door.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean’s voice was firm. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I got up and went to the door. I looked at the doorknob and hesitated for a moment and opened the door. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I opened the door, the light in the corridor was on. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I saw Sean standing at my door. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He was wearing a suit and his hair was a bit messy. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He came in suddenly after seeing me. He closed the door with one hand and hugged me with the other. He whispered in my ear, “don’t get engaged. Don’t marry him.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At the same time, the strong smell of smoke and wine mixed in my side! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was held by him and didn’t want to push him away. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But his words reminded me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Yes, I had promised to marry Ming today. What were Sean and I doing now? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’m sorry. I can’t.” I was held by Sean. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I knew very well that I couldn’t and shouldn’t. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But I didn’t want to push him away. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I just wanted this moment to last a little longer. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Then why do you open the door? Since you open the door, it means that you have me in your heart.” Sean slowly pushed me to the wall behind me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His long fingertips raised my chin. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The living room was not lighted. Only moonlight came in through the French windows. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I could only vaguely see his features. He was really thin and his face was very bad. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His once deep eyes were now a little straight. He obviously didn’t have a good rest. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It seemed that this event really hit the Giant group. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“You haven’t had a good rest for a long time.” I couldn’t hide my pain and worry. I blurted out, “you can sleep here.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I just meant it literally. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But he picked me up directly. As he walked to the bedroom, he said, “OK, sleep with you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His words made me realize what he meant. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
