Chapter 806 - Let Go Of Me And Move On In Your Life.
Feng Yi Lan and Li Xue, both were taken aback. They weren't expecting something like this to come but eventually, fate found its course. The people from the fashion house were all standing behind, whispering in excitement, looking at the brightened stage that had been set at the front, shrouded with lots of balloons, flowers, and fairy lights.
"I am looking forward to it. Best of luck, dear." Li Xue cheered Feng Yi Lan, looking at all the preparations made lavishly at the front of Aurora. The space was little but has been prepared well to bring up the purpose to its perfection.
Feng Yi Lan's eyes grew big as she quickly shrugged. "What are you wishing me luck for? He has gone crazy. And …"
"And you need not forget the promise you have made to me before on the results of Aurora's event. Though the result has not properly come out yet, still you know to take the middle way, right?" Before Feng Yi Lan could draw any excuse, Li Xue reminded her of the bet they had made before.
"You …"
"You better not ditch me, Yi Lan." Li Xue interrupted again without allowing Yi Lan to begin. Her eyes darted to look at the arrangements at the front. Though it looked cute and sweet in gesture, there seemed something beneath in depths. The time of Christmas and snow has long gone, yet on the corner, there stood a Christmas tree and on the floor were the clouds of snow.
There was surely an interesting story that was yet to be known.
Li Xue looked anticipatedly as soon as the man of the show appeared, dressed in something different. In something that she has for the first time seeing him dressed in. Wearing a casual fit pair of jeans and a heavy overcoat, fitted to be worn in the deep winters of the western countries.
Now looking at him like that, something was coming to her understanding but not ruining the fun, she restrained herself from guessing it. Her lips just curled slightly as bracing her arms around herself, she strode to step away from Feng Yi Lan while asking others to do the same.
Feng Yi Lan was also stunned to find Qi Shuai dressed in the same outfit from that year. Her eyes darted to look around, only to find more similarities from a particular year. "This …" She was about to say something, thinking Li Xue was beside her but her words were interjected with another familiar voice.
"This is the same as the year when everything went wrong between us."
Feng Yi Lan's head snapped to turn and look at Qi Shuai who was no longer away, rather was standing just beside her, waiting for her to recognize the thing he had intended for her.
Her eyes blinked at him as she asked in a completely lost tone. "What are you planning to do? What is the meaning of all this? I …"
Before she could complete her words, Qi Shuai forwarded his hand up for her to take. And to his sudden gesture, Yi Lan paused in her words as her eyes stared at his palm. "What?"
"Come with me and I will tell you all of my intentions". He said, looking deep into her eyes. His lips curled, assuring her about everything.
"I don't want to hear your intentions. You can just let it be as it is". Feng Yi Lan shook her head in disagreement, but her hand subconsciously found its direction to crawl and reach onto his.
Seeing her like that, Qi Shuai could not help but smile. "Are you sure?" He asked, gesturing for her to look down at her hand that has comfortably come into his grasp.
Feng Yi Lan was instantly embarrassed. "I-I am sorry. I was …" Avoiding his eyes, she was about to pull back but before she could, the man tugged her closer.
"It's okay, I know you and your thoughts better. You don't have to word it out to let me know. Just believe and come with me."
Even when she said that she would never believe him, Qi Shuai knew the way she believed him, she could believe none.
When she said that he had broken her in a way she would never be repaired, he knew that she was waiting for him to come and repair her and her heart. In her every disagreement towards him, he knew deep within she had been agreeing and giving in to him. It was just that she was scared to reveal it on the surface.
Same as even now when she said she doesn't want to know him, her inner self was all ready to walk all her journey with him, putting their hands together.
Feng Yi Lan didn't say more. She just looked at him and let him take her wherever he wanted to take. Once again giving him the right and authority to break her. Believing that maybe this time it would not be the same as it was that year.
Qi Shuai smiled. He was walking a step ahead while tugging Yi Lan to follow him, taking her directly to the center. Making her stand in between the flower oracle frame he has created for her, beaded with fairy lights.
"Same as me, I am sure these arrangements must have brought you a lot of memories as well, Yi Lan. Even though that night wasn't something worth keeping in the memories, yet it is also not something that could be forgotten easily. Both of us have suffered. But the suffering you have undergone was solely because of me. Something that I will never be able to forgive myself for".
Qi Shuai tried to redeem himself, accepting his mistakes and his words only made Feng Yi Lan tear up internally. Though she has restrained her tears to come on the surface, from the slight shiver of her body, her internal cries could easily be felt.
How can Qi Shuai not feel it?
He realized it as well. So the next moment, he brought a big smile over his face to ease the woman at the front first. "That's why today, I have arranged everything the same as it was at that time. But this time, here I want you to let go of everything. Let go of me and move on in your life without holding the past. Today, LanLan, it's your time to reject me and teach me the pain that I have once given you."
