Hong Yan Jing

Beep… Beep… Beep!

The familiar sound. The same tone. Is this reality or just in my illusion? I am afraid if I open my eyes I see no one.

"Bai He Lian! Wake up! Wake up! We were late!"

Someone shook my body hard.

"Bai He Lian!"

This time I encourage myself to open my eyes. I see Luo Fei Yang who is still shaking my body hard. I sit quickly then hug her tightly. Luo Fei Yang looks so startled but I don't care because I am happy I can meet her again. Last night, I thought I would never meet her again but this morning I am awake and find her here.

"Bai He Lian, what happened?" She asked.

"Nothing, I am happy. I can meet you again." I said while still hugging her.

"Uhm…We are still here and now we have to work!" She protested but this time I let her be angry or sullen because I miss her so much.

I don't know what happened to me but the scene still becomes my fear.

'Bai He Lian, we will meet again so wait for me.'

'You?'

'Yes! See you later!'

His voice disappeared and that time I knew…all memories about blind young man are real. I take a deep breath because I don't know how to fight them back.

"Bai He Lian…seriously…tell me what happened with you?" She asked me.

"I am okay…I just miss you so much." I looked at Luo Fei Yang who was clueless. "Then…I will prepare."

"Okay. He Lian, I have to go early because there is a new employee today. When you are not working, he comes and asks me for a part time job as A Lin says he has to take care of his mother so he needs someone to help him."

"Uhm…"

"By the way… our new employee is so handsome. When he walked, everyone's eyes just set on him." Luo Fei Yang smiled. Her eyes look so bright when she tells me about the new employee and makes me curious about him because during this time, I never hear Luo Fei Yang tell me about a man except Xi Wang but now he praises the new employee. "So…prepare yourself."

"Uhm…" I respond to her while smiling. "Just go. I will come after you."

"Okay…Then I will go. See you."

"Uhm…"

Luo Fei Yang left my room and went. She left me alone here. I turned around and found all things still the same but why I feel something just missing but I don't have an idea what is missing here. So I ignore this feeling and take a deep breath before bathing.

Today I want to enjoy my working time. At the café, I meet Luo Fei Yang and A Lin who are busy with our customers. I put my stuff in the locker and help them soon. I am so amazed when I see there are a lot of customers today even not on the weekend. Luo Fei Yang was told me about new employee this morning but I never think if he has big impact to increase number of our customer.

"Hi…"

"Hey…Hong Yan Jing, how can you…" I turned around then I saw a tall figure in front of me. His enchanted smile makes me shocked because I never thought that Hong Yan Jing would come to this place but this time he wears a white neat shirt and black trousers. His obsidian eyes look so beautiful. I never knew because he always wears a blindfold during this time until I think he is really blind but I still don't understand why he is here.

"Of course, I am here to work." He said while smiling. "I'll help Young Master to take care of you."

"What?! Hey…I can take care by myself and I am not his slave." I said to him. "Wait! You've said that you are working here."

"Yes!"

"So…"

"Hi…Hong Yan Jing, you can take your apron in the locker." Luo Fei Yang approaches us. She looked so happy when I saw him as I just can't take a long…long …long deep breath because I don't know what will happen next if Hong Yan Jing is really working here.

"Alright!"

Hong Yan Jing going towards the locker as I looked around then realized he is a handsome man indeed even his enchanting aura can hypnotize everyone. His smile is mesmerizing indeed but he comes here as Young Master's spy or he is the real Young Master? Thinking about this just gives me a headache.

During working time, I have to admit if Hong Yan Jing is really working hard. He used his charm to attract a lot of young girls and women to come here. He helps A Lin and Luo Fei Yang a lot and…steal their hearts. I can see Luo Fei Yang and A Lin look so comfortable with him. As long as Hong Yan Jing doesn't hurt them then it's alright because I know Hong Yan Jing is not an ordinary man.

At lunch time, there are more people who come here so we become so busy. Luo Fei Yang and I have to deliver orders on customer tables as Hong Yan Jing and A Lin are working on the kitchen. The customers come and go. Sometimes they ask Hong Yan Jing and A Lin to take a photo with them. Luo Fei Yang looks so exhausted.

"Fei Yang, are you okay?" I asked her but Luo Fei Yang just smiled.

"Don't worry, I am fine." She said.

"And these foods for both of you." A Lin handed us a plate of fried rice. "Just eat."

"Uhm…"

"Thank you A Lin…"Luo Fei Yang said.

"Then this orange juice for you."

This time we were shocked because Hong Yan Jing handed me a glass of orange juice but he didn't give it to Luo Fei Yang.

"That's good! I am the one who employs you but you give her a glass of orange juice." Fei Yang said.

A Lin also makes a confused face not different from Luo Fei Yang. "I am working with you along the day but you forbid me to try your orange juice then I realize where your heart is."

"Oh please…don't say like that…" I said.

"Am I wrong?" A Lin response. "Okay… eat quickly because we are so busy right now." A Lin said before going back to the kitchen.

My body is broken but I am so happy because I can't forget the fact that Hong Yan Jing is a Young Master's spy. A Lin has to go early because he has to take care of his mother and Luo Fei Yang also goes home early but she doesn't give me the reason. She left the café hurriedly and made me worry so Hong Yan Jing and I will close this café.

"Let me help you." He said as he took the key from my right palm. He locks the door before looking at me and gives the key back.

"Then I will come back home." I said while taking a step to go from this place before his palm grabs my arm. "What happened?"

"You cannot go home because you have to come back with me."

"Hong Yan Jing, haven't you said that I can go back home?"

"Don't forget when I said that you have to come back again because someone will pick you up."

"But this is at 9.PM already, not 6."

"I don't understand why you always forget something important?"

"What do you mean?"

"I am here to pick you up."

At that time, I was shocked. My heart beat faster. Our eyes meet. At that time I just realized that I ever saw him before….long time ago but why I cannot recall it? Why do I feel something missing in my life?

My arms are still in Hong Yan Jing's grip. I try to break free but Hong Yan Jing is stronger than me so I think I don't have a choice except to follow him.

"Let's go." He said.

His palm now holds my palm. To be honest with this gesture makes me shy. I never doing something like this except with Xu Feng but memory about Xu Feng, how he looks like, I don't remember anymore. My face became reddish because a lot of people looked at us along the way. I just follow wherever he goes. We just walked without saying a single word. I bow my head and look at the ground. Sometimes I see him walking beside me. His white hair just sparkling when the bright moon lucent it.

"Why are you looking at me? Do you think that I am handsome?" He asked while still holding my hand.

"Can't I just look at you?" I asked him back.

"Actually, you can do whatever you want because you are mine."

"What?" I don't understand why he says something ridiculous like this? Who is him actually?
