Lu Sheng had the answer at the tip of his tongue but his mind was telling him something else, which was completely opposite to the reality. To be true, he was not clear himself about how he felt towards her. Lu Sheng could only pull a frown for his question and ignore it as if he hadn't heard it.
"Bro, for a while, just be true to yourself. Deep down you still hold a torch for her it's just that you are not willing to admit it." It was An Zihao who spoke up; Lu Sheng was completely astonished by his cousin's words. Was it really how he felt about her, no, this can't be. Lu Sheng immediately refuted, "No, I don't hold any kind of feelings for her. I just feel guilty, maybe I went overboard this time, that's it!"
An Zihao nodded helplessly, okay, since you want this we will do it in your way. An Zihao smiled and asked, "What are you guilty for, weren't you the one who
Throughout the afternoon Lu Sheng had no sky shattering work scheduled, except for meeting a few clients he was pretty much empty. Lu Sheng was in the middle of going through the proposal offered by an alley company, after reading it carefully he finally closed the file and helped himself with a glass of water.After a short break he kept himself busy with other works. The clock soon hit five and the employees slowly started to disappear from their work station. Lu Sheng too shut everything and prepared to leave; he looked quite, like stagnant water but his mind was no less that a rumbling sea, hitting and clashing with thoughts. Even after boarding the car he stayed mute as he stared silently outside the window.The busy streets of Shenzhen, like always, were brightly lit with various people passing by. Since it was office leaving hours the roads were pretty m
Sometimes non- living things provide more comfort than living individuals- Lu Sheng had stored up so many unsaid memories in these verses. He was so lost in his own thought that he never realized when the song found its end; his ocean like eyes slowly fluttered open to discover something familiar. The road was splitting ahead, the left one would lead him to his home while the other would lead him to the hospital she was in.Lu Sheng stared blankly at the windscreen; he personally sent her to the hospital yesterday and it was the last he heard from her. Was she all right? Did she discharge herself?But who would give the answers for his questions? So, he spoke out, "Take me to People's hospital." His voice was bland but the car was silent enough for the driver to hear it clearly. The chauffer obediently nodded before tilting the wheel and changing his course.
The entry was short and filtered but spoke of innumerable admiration and love, Lu Sheng, for a brief second, doubted if it really was Qin Yue's diary because she never took any initiative to praise or admire him, not even once. There was even a time when An Zihao called her 'pathologically unromantic' and even got beaten up to pulp by her.To be true, she truly was pathetic in terms of love! It had always been him who took the lead, he was not a romantic egg either but to make her happy he took special classes from An Zihao and mastered the art but she never made any kind of initiative to do sweet things to him or praise him in private, let alone public.As for Lu Sheng, he didn't mind it. He loved her for what she was, he never looked forward to be showered with sugar coated words. He was satisfied as long as she reciprocated the love he had for her.
He reported, "Mr. Lu, I have did what you have asked me to." Lu Sheng, who sat dazedly, showed a reaction. Chen Han started to recite the report, "Miss Qin is fine and Mr. Li has been dropping by to take care of her. Moreover, she was allowed to be discharged but she insisted on staying at the hospital for two more days. As for the reason, she mentioned that she wants to be away from the world."Lu Sheng's eyebrows tensed up after hearing the report; she was afraid of hospitals and loathed them to death yet she insisted on staying there for more days. Did he just force her to this extent that she had no other option than to hide away in the hospital?No wonder she looked sad when he saw her at the indoor garden, no wonder she was reading about their past and reminiscing about the time when he cherished her. People had this tendency to forget what really matters; one
That night, Lu Sheng, like the previous night, had to pour alcohol down his throat to sleep.The next day, Lu Sheng woke up with a splitting headache; maybe it was the influence of the overbearing alcohol or maybe the messy decisions he had been struggling with. Lu Sheng didn't have a good night sleep as her diary, her entries, her saddened face kept coming back to his mind like some movie; he was practically up all night thinking about what he should do.There were even times when, out of frustration, he smoked a bit to ease his tightened heart. His mind during those hours of struggles kept floating around her; getting her job snatched away, getting her life dumped must be really hard for her.Lu Sheng truly hated himself for being so fickle; his brain and his heart were in a constant war which tarnish
Meanwhile in the car, Lu Sheng sneakily unlocked his phone and got into google. There he started to read about gifts that women preferred most! The article was lengthy and Lu Sheng didn't bother with he, he only got the main thing registered- cosmetics, bags, shoes, dresses and jewelry!The car came to one of the expensive shopping sites of the city, Gorgeous! Lu Sheng stepped down and scanned the building with his pearl like eyes. The building was handsome and even though it was only 9 of the morning he could still see many elite women going in and coming out of it. Shopping was something highly preferred by women; Lu Sheng helplessly nodded. In his 24 years of survival he had failed to understand why were women so obsessed with this shopping thing.Lu Sheng was upstage towards women, he had only allowed two women in his life. First was his mother, but he was not to
When Lu Sheng exited the cosmetics section he was ready to go back home but a thought suddenly struck his mind. He had bought a whole bunch of cosmetics, was it enough? Even though he had spent a lot of money on it but still cosmetics were not worthy of being show- casted. To be true, they weren't that expensive! Anyone would afford it...Will she be happy with it? Or would she think him to be a miser?No, cosmetics were not enough... He had to buy something else too! He was not ready to give it a chance or leave any ropes untied this time. It had to be perfect even if it cost all his fortune.Lu Sheng thought about the second gift which was mentioned in the articles- bags. He didn't give it a second thought as he directly took large strides towards the bag section.
Chen Han could not continue down with his analysis because through the window he saw Lu Sheng's tall figure coming out of the building. He hurriedly placed down the phone where it was meant to be and stepped out to obediently help the boss with the car door. When Lu Sheng got in Chen Han purposely peeped over his right hand to check if his doubts were true and yes, the hand did really belong to Lu Sheng.He weighed the situation and knew that he will be good as dead if the boss get's to know that he had secretly checked his phone, so he kept this little secret to himself. He completely disremembered the occasion when he caught hold of the boss's phone and pretended that it never happened but he could stop wondering, who was the young girl in the picture?The whole incident resurfaced in his mind as he looked back that Lu Sheng. Could he be selecting those rings
