Chapter 142 - Her fragrance. (1/2)
Yuzhe was still gazing out the glass window oblivious to her approching presence. After confessing the true feelings of his heart loud for the first time, he was feeling quite relieved but something was scaring him inside.
He knew Lifen well. Though she is a kind hearted girl, whose heart is filled up with the selfless love for everyone with whom she is connected, even for the silver line of relation. But in actual means her heart wasn't that big.
She is the girl who believes in one time love in a lifetime. No matter how much sincere one's feelings might be for her, her heart won't budge or waver even for a tiniest second, once she has kept someone there.
And he knows well there is already someone there, not from yesterday or from two years back but from last twelve years. Though he came first in her life, a way before from Deming, yet he can't charm her the way the quiet and cold little Deming did.
So from the very first day, he has been fated for the painful one sided love which is destined to remain unrequited. When the love became unbearable for him to handle, he left the country to handle his heart and after that he never dare to experience that pain again so he never get back there. He preferred to stay alone than to feel the insufferable pain again.
Living alone for nine long years, his heart still never tried to forget her. It still loved her innocent beautiful form. It still remember to skip its beat after getting a hint of her slightest smile. Though he has engrossed himself in his work, still he remembered to keep an eye on her well being.
He had always known every small fragment of her life. Her lavish life getting turned into a normal life after the life scaring accident. Her survival being a normal girl after leaving her princess zone. Though she was leading a normal life, yet her aura didn't change. Her elegance never got lost in the midst of crowd.
He had known the efforts made by her grandfather to hide her identity to protect her from the enemies, almost declaring her dead in that accident. He had also helped him using his powers to conceal all the information about her childhood.
And because of this protection she lost the love for which she has waited for the so many years. He knew every confusion that made Deming believe Jie as the girl from his childhood but still he can't clear it all. Not because he didn't wanted to but to protect Lifen from the enemy which is still unknown.
It wasn't Deming's fault, in mistakenly taking Jie as the little girl, nor the super great plotting and planning of that stupid Long Jie. But it was all because the combined forces of Yang's and Li's sources which helped the situation getting this turn. They planted each and every evident that proved Jie's story to be true.
He had known her pains when she came to know that has love loved someone else, right after he left her. He knew that she was suffering the insufferable pain exactly same to what he has felt all these years. He wanted to reveal everything to her but there is a thing that is stopping him. If he tell her the reality then she would be suffering the pain that is worst of all.
And he can't let that happen. He will protect her from every pain that will be coming in her way. Even if has to sacrifice himself, he will do it without thinking another second. If if he has to face her hatred for hiding the facts, he will greet it with a smiling face because he loved her more than anyone can think of.
There are still many thing that can't be revealed to her. And there are still many things that aren't clear to him even after searching for so long using all his powers. He can only hope the future make him capable to protect her from the evil things that are still yet to come her way.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open and she stepped inside with her eyes full of cheerful smile and confidence, her fragrance instantly swaying inside the restaurant.
Deming was busy pondering deep inside his heart after listening to Yuzhe's words when suddenly a familiar fragrance grasped his thoughts.
