Husband Is Too Sweet! - Chapter 13

Finally arriving at the cinema, both of the vigorously discussed what movie they should see. After coming to a decision one went to buy tickets and the other snacks and drinks. Both women were intently watching the movie, however, the sight of such beauties caused many of the men that had come to watch the movie unable to focus. Finishing the movie they went to a nearby cafe. It had been a long time since Yu Yan was able to spend her days like this. This “girl’s day” had been nice. Not only was she content, but Wu Ming Yue had also enjoyed the day. Not wanting to part, both girls walked around speaking about anything and everything. Only when it became late, did they reluctantly part ways.

“Ah Yan, now that we’re friend, you should call me sister Ming Yue. Miss Wu is too formal. Oh, we should also have a follow-up date!” She said teasingly before she left. Finally reaching home after the long day, Yu Yan was too tired to anything else. She had so much fun playing around for a whole day, that she did not realise she was exhausted. There was still a week left before she would start working at Lotus before then she would like to start thinking of ideas for her collection. After all, it did have to be the best, since she had no plans of working for free. Making new ideas, Yu Yan drifted off to sleep.

The next day Yu Yan woke up early to go to a mountain resort up north. That’s where she had been last winter when she came up with the design she had shown Ming Yue. Nature and freedom she had felt there had been her inspirations. She wanted to see if she could come up with anything else there.

At the resort.

Walking around, she could feel it. The same freedom she had ones felt. Something she had forgotten in her past life. She had been so busy working to make a living that she had no spare time. No time to breath or just enjoy life. Sitting down amongst the trees, she drew anything that came to mind. Enjoying the breeze, the smell, she just watched as people walk by.

After a few hours, she had gotten down a few ideas on paper. Believing that would be enough, for now, she headed back to her room. “Mommy,” a cry from a child could be heard. Turning around to look, Yu Yan saw a little boy about two or three years old running towards a woman. The boy pouted as he said. “Mommy, You can’t leave me behind.” The woman laughed gently as she looked back at the boy. “Silly boy, how could mommy bear to leave my darling. Mommy will slow down so my baby could keep up, okay?” The boy nodded as he happily followed after his mother.

Yu Yan felt something wet fall on her hand. Was it raining? She looked up. No. Bringing her hand up, she touched her face. She was crying, again. Scenes like this had always made her cry, made her remember what she had lost. When would it stop? Will she feel this pain for the rest of her life?

“Which idiot left such a pretty lady alone after making her cry?” A flirtatious voice came from the side. Looking up, it was quite a good-looking man. He came towards her, fished out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it over to her. Who brings handkerchiefs to mountain resorts nowadays? He smiled. “They are handier than you think, so it’s always good to bring one with you,” he said. Was her thoughts that obvious. “Hmm… Shall I cheer the pretty lady up? follow me.” “No, Should head in.” As Yu Yan turned around to live, he took her arm and pulled her along. “Let go! if you don’t let go of my hand, I’ll scream.” “Scream? Hardly anyone passes by here. Would anyone come here?” He smirked.”Pretty lady, do you think I lack woman with my handsome looks?” ‘Narcissist.’ Before she could do anything he had dragged her a distance away. Then he stepped behind her and pushed her forward. Surprised she spun around trying to find out what he was up to.

“Ah, I know I’m handsome, but instead of looking at me you should turn around and see what’s ahead of us.” Turning she was astonished. What a beautiful sight. In front of her was a beautiful lake. Since it had already turned dark the fireflies that were swarming the place could be clearly seen. Watching the beautiful sight in front of her, she drew a few more pieces. She had completely forgotten the man who had brought her.

Finishing, she stood up only to see the man still standing there, looking at her in wonder. Gazing at her as if she was some kind of alien. ‘She forgot that I was here. How is that even possible?’ As if understanding something, he looked at her weirdly. It gave her the creeps. What was this man thinking? “Pretty lady, everyone has their own path. Instead of pursuing someone that would never fall for you it’s better to forget and start anew.” Yu Yan looked up at him in surprise. How had he known? She sighed as answered. “You’re right, not everyone is meant to end up together.” “Ha… You can’t choose who you would be attracted to. You should not worry, there is nothing wrong with you.” Though the man was supportive, there was just something off about the way he spoke. “Ah, my name is Mu Sheng Tian. It’s good that you met me, not everyone is as accepting as me. Since fate brought us together we are now friends. You could always come to me when you need a shoulder to cry on.” ‘This man’s way of talking sound weirder and weirder. Accepting? Accepting of what?’ While Yu Yan was wondering, Mu Sheng Tian blabbered on and on about love.

Soon both of them headed towards their respective rooms, they both got to know each other better. “Oh, I didn’t quite catch your name.” “Yu Yan, my name is Yu Yan.” She smiled at him. He had really cheered her up today. Though he probably approached her with hidden intentions, he was surrounded by women that would happily throw themselves at him. The infamous playboy, young master Mu, who would have thought she would meet him here? Mu Sheng Tian stared at her in a daze. “What a beauty… such a pity she would be…” he muttered. “What?” Again that weird feeling as if he was thinking about something weird. She looked at him questioningly. “Nothing.”

What the two did not know was that someone had been watching them for a while now. He had been staring at the pair as they were talking and laughing. “What are you looking at? Something interesting?” Another man came, peering out the window to see if something was going on outside. “Hmm, it seems like Mu Sheng Tian found his next woman. Wonder how long she’ll last?” The other man gritted his teeth together. “Shut up!” His friend looked at him in surprise.”What’s made you so irritated Li Yi Feng?”
