He cried out in shock and woke up from his dream.
"Shaoyuan, you're awake…"
When Han Shaoyuan opened his eyes, he saw Liu Chuanyun sitting by the bed. The bedside lamp was on, and a cup of Pu 'er tea was steaming under the warm glow.
Han Shaoyuan got up from the bed tiredly and rubbed his temples." What are you doing here…" His cold voice sounded like he was interrogating her.
Liu Chuanyun smiled, his face like a peach blossom." I saw you had a nightmare again. I made you a cup of tea..."
She picked up the teacup and warmed her hands slightly. The tea leaves danced in the clear water as she handed it to Han Shaoyuan." Drink it, you might feel better…"
" No need…" Han Shaoyuan turned his face to the side, not looking at her.
" Don't drink so much in the future..." Liu Chuanyun put the teacup back on the bedside table.
" Get out…" His voice was bone-chilling, and Han Shaoyuan's black eyes were filled with distance.
Liu Chuanyun's smile froze for a moment, but then it spread across his face again." Shaoyuan, let me stay here with you for a while…" He placed his slender and fair hand on his shoulder and caressed it gently." I'll just stay here quietly and not speak…"
" Get out…" Han Shaoyuan flung Liu Chuanyun's hand away as if he was brushing off dust. His expression was cold and distant, and his words were firm and emotionless.
Liu Chuanyun's heart was stabbed, and there was a touch of contusion in her eyes." Then... then I'll go out..." She didn't say anything else, so she stood up and slowly walked out of the room. I have a heart and a man is heartless. The living can't even compare to a strand of hair of the dead. For ten years, Han Shaoyuan's heart had not melted at all. The Kitashimakawa family had a long history with the Han family, and she had known Han Shaoyuan since she was young. She had been by Han Shaoyuan's side for the past ten years. She thought that she could win his heart. For someone as proud as Chuanyun, Han Shaoyuan was the only man in her life who would make her willingly give up everything.
She thought that she could win Han Shaoyuan's love, but she realized that she had overestimated herself…
One night ten years ago, she had drugged Han Shaoyuan's coffee.
"Shaoyuan…"
She appeared in his room in a pair of almost transparent pink pajamas. Her cheeks were red, her muscles were smooth, her figure was voluptuous, and she was about to burst out of her body. She thought that she could catch a turtle in a jar and take something out of the bag.
"What are you doing…"
After drinking the coffee, Han Shaoyuan's eyes were bloodshot, and he could not stand still." What's going on? What did you give me to drink?"”
He rubbed his forehead with one hand and tried to keep himself awake. His trembling voice was mixed with his scorching breathing.
" It's nothing, Shaoyuan. I just want to give myself to you…" She approached him step by step, her fair arms wrapped around his neck, and the softness of her chest rubbed against his chest, creating a shocking heat. Her beautiful face and cherry lips parted slightly, and a fragrant kiss landed on his face.
The strong drug made Han Shaoyuan dizzy. Liu Chuanyun's kiss was like a firearm, igniting a raging fire in his body. He was being roasted in the fire, and his nerves and thoughts were about to short-circuit." Go away…" He suppressed his desire and pushed her away abruptly, escaping from the fire. The veins on his forehead bulged, and his face turned red. It was unknown whether it was because of anger or the drug." Liu Chuanyun, I can't love you!"”After he finished speaking, he angrily opened the door of the room and stumbled away with a towering fire.
"Shaoyuan…Shaoyuan…"
She called out to him from behind, but he didn't even turn his head. The car lights downstairs were glaring, and he drove away from the villa and disappeared into the night.
The lights flickered, and in the dimly lit dance hall of the Demon's Den, the women under the demon's rule danced like snakes. He casually pulled over a prostitute dancer and entangled with her, spreading a flame that was about to soar into the sky. The dancer named He Xiuli actually used his power to change her appearance and become famous, becoming a dazzling movie star, Lesley...
In the past ten years, he had been with countless women, but he kept a distance from Liu Chuanyun. She had seen through his romantic life, but it was just his longing for a dead person. How many women were heartbroken for him, but in the end, they couldn't even exchange a little pity for him. She did not get his heart, let alone other women. From the moment he pushed open the door and left ten years ago, she swore that she would have him. Even if it was just to stay by his side, she was willing. She believed that time could change everything. She firmly believed that one day, Han Shaoyuan would waver.
The moment he walked out of Han Shaoyuan's room and closed the door, Liu Chuanyun stared deeply at the arrogant face under the warm light." Han Shaoyuan, do you think you can scare me away with your indifference? You underestimate me-"
The door was shut with a click, and the empty room became deathly silent. Han Shaoyuan turned off the wall lamp at the head of the bed. The darkness of the night enveloped him. He closed his eyes. The past was still vivid in his mind, and Snow Cherry's voice and smile kept appearing in the darkness.
When he was twenty-five years old, during the Cherry Blossom Festival in Japan, he and Snow Cherry made an appointment to worship the God of Flowers under the cherry blossom tree. On a moonlit night, he waited for her under a tree. He had custom-made a ring and had prepared all the words he would say,'Xue' er, let me protect you'. If Snow Cherry asked how long it would take, he would look at her with a firm gaze, just like how Snow Cherry did when she was eight years old.'Just like the Higan Sakura that you protect, it won't die for ten thousand years, it won't fall for a thousand years'. He had always wanted to say this.
But…
Snow Cherry didn't come. He waited for an entire night, but she didn't appear…
She was missing…
He searched like a madman, that kind of heart-wrenching pain, that kind of unforgettable…
A week later, he received a piece of bad news. Snow Cherry had died. She had drowned in Mirror Creek Lake. Her body was found floating in the lake, soaked in water.
The night she went to see Han Shaoyuan was too dark, and she fell into the water on her way here…
Self-blame, guilt, regret, and suspicion filled Han Shaoyuan's heart. The cause of death left him in deep pain. He would never forget the moment when the body was picked up. He could not believe that the girl he had loved for so many years had died just like that. Was this how God treated him?
Was this really an accident or…
He looked back at everyone around him. His mother, Fujiwara Shuimo, had become his biggest suspect…
"Shaoyuan, if you get together with her, don't acknowledge me as your mother…" She had adopted Snow Cherry, but she hated the fact that she was an orphan and that she didn't have a noble background. Thus, she had used a tough attitude and methods to prevent him from interacting with Snow Cherry. Killing Snow Cherry was also very likely to happen. The many years of suffering made him more willing to believe that Snow Cherry was murdered.
After Snow Cherry's death, he and his mother had a huge estrangement. Although there was no evidence to prove that Fujiwara Shumo had killed Snow Cherry, the suspicion he had towards his mother made him become colder and colder. He was afraid of being reminded of the past, so he left Japan and returned to China alone. For ten years, he did not return to Japan to visit Fujiwara Shumo. Originally, he would occasionally contact her on the phone. After his father Han Zhenhai passed away three years ago, his relationship with Fujiwara Shumo became even weaker. They did not even have basic contact. Only Liu Chuanyun, who came to China with him, would report his recent situation to Fujiwara Shumo at any time.
" Shaoyuan has been doing very well recently. His business in China is developing very smoothly. He has completely replaced Uncle's position in the company. Auntie, don't worry, I'm still here…" In the corridor, Liu Chuanyun's voice was gentle and soft.
" Tomorrow is his birthday…" A woman's voice sounded like she was sighing.
"Of course I remember. Auntie, what do you want me to give him this year?”
" No, just help me take care of him-cough cough…"
" Auntie, what's wrong?" Liu Chuanyun asked hurriedly when he heard the coughing sound on the other end of the phone.
" It's fine. It's getting late. Chuanyun, go to bed early. I have to hang up first..." Fujiwara Shumo hung up the phone on the other side. A tear fell from the corner of her eye. Ten years of time, a distant space, had cut off the relationship between mother and son. She could only blame herself for everything that had happened today. It was all her fault, all her fault.
The next morning, when Han Shaoyuan arrived at his office, he felt a little different. Looking around carefully, he realized that there was an oil painting on the wall. In the painting, there was a large area of white snow. It was the cherry blossoms on the other side! His eyes froze." Liu Chuanyun..." he shouted coldly outside the office.
Liu Chuanyun walked in. The sunlight shining through the window shone on her beautiful smile." Shaoyuan, happy birthday…" She said," This is for you. It's a work by the famous artist, Wang Guning…"
Han Shaoyuan's expression froze. He had forgotten his birthday. However, these cherry blossoms were too familiar. This painting was clearly the scenery of Mirror Creek Lake, and these cherry blossoms were clearly the cherry blossoms by Mirror Creek Lake. His heart began to ache.
Seeing that Han Shaoyuan was not happy, Liu Chuanyun's smile faded and he said carefully,""Shaoyuan, if you don't like it, I'll get someone to take it off…"
"No need…"
Liu Chuanyun was delighted. After all these years, this was the only time he had said he wanted to keep the gifts she had given him.
Han Shaoyuan was a little dejected. He turned around and walked to his desk. He sat down on the leather chair, and when he looked down, he saw a red invitation on his desk. He picked it up casually.
" This is an invitation to the DK Group's charity party…" Liu Chuanyun smiled as he told Han Shaoyuan.
"Charity gala?" Han Shaoyuan's lips curled up as he threw the invitation back onto his desk.
"It's the night after tomorrow. I've already arranged it for you in your schedule. But…Shaoyuan, what have you decided to donate?”
" Donate that…" Han Shaoyuan glanced at Liu Chuanyun and pointed at the wall.
Liu Chuanyun's smile froze when he saw Han Shaoyuan's casual gesture, and his heart fell into the abyss of joy. She realized that this man's coldness would not change at all.
However, she was unwilling to give up. She tried her best to suck in the chill in her breath and pretended not to care. She replied in an orderly manner," Okay…"
" Go out..." He waved at Liu Chuanyun.
Liu Chuanyun hid the hurt in his heart and turned to leave.
