Chapter 57 - Someone from the past (1/2)
Wang Lu's brows bumped together in a scowl as he looked out his car window. It wasn't the fact that his flight got delayed or the fact that he had been sitting in his car for nearly two hours due to the traffic on the road that had him riled up.
It was the weird feeling that had been in his chest since he walked out of the airport and stepped into this city.
City S was one of the most beautiful cities in the country known for it's wonderful and modern architecture. It also had one of the most beautiful and green public parks in the world. Looking at the green park he suddenly thought of the one person he didn't want to. Feng Mei.
As an artist, she was a lover of nature. Something about nature inspiring her as an artist. She would have enjoyed sitting in this park as she drew.
Wang Lu massaged his temples as frustration crinkled in his eyes.
A memory flashed before his eyes, Feng Mei with a blissful smile on her face had closed her eyes against the bright sunlight, as she absorbed, it's warmth. She had looked heavenly divine that he couldn't look away, he had been captivated by her. Slowly opening her eye, she had caught him staring at her. Their eyes had locked as time stood still and everything around them disappeared.
Wang Lu slammed his eyes shut and clenched his fist when he realized he was thinking of her again. He tried not to think about anything that would excites his memories with her. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
Wang Lu felt heaviness in his chest as he tried to forget the memories. But as they say, ”You can't let go of memories because they are constant reminders of a great story you never expected to end.”
Suddenly his phone rang bringing him out of his trance. Glancing briefly at the caller ID, Wang Lu narrowed his eyes.
Here he was trying to forget another woman but the other had been continuously annoying him with marriage.
Lisa Shen was the daughter of his mother's best friend. Even though they had been engaged for two years now he had hardly seen her. The only reason he had agreed to her being his fiancée was because of his mother.
At first he thought once he get engaged with Lisa, he would forget Feng Mei but when he was with her all he does was compared the two.
He had never touched her or anyone since Feng Mei left. He had tried but anytime he touched someone he would subconsciously think about Feng Mei's pure face.
He knew he was crazy for still loving the woman who had cheated on him, but that's what love does. It makes people crazy.

Wearing a tight black pencil shirt that reached her knee, and a white long sleeve blouse. Yan Mei paired it with a six inches stiletto that showed off her legs.
”Sorry I'm late…..” she declared in fluent English as she entered the boardroom.
”Feng Mei?”
She heard someone call out from the other side of the room and immediately turned towards the source.
Her eyes met a deep-set of chocolate eyes that were filled with different emotions. Shock, relief, guilt and happiness. The man had a strong jawline and high cheekbone that went perfectly with his dark brown hair.
Yan Mei stood paralyzed staring at the handsome in front of her. Her deadpan expression gave nothing away but her shaking hand that was clutching her purse betrayed her inner turmoil. She watched him as he got up from his chair and walked towards her.
Yan Mei was brought out of her stupor when she felt him pulled her into him arms. Hugging her tightly as if he was afraid she would disappear.
