His right hand touched her left upper arm, and then started to slide down to her wrist.

"In case you haven't noticed.." he started to say.

She had stiffened up, started from his initial touch.

"I'm officially pursuing you."

All she wanted was a second chance in happiness. She had been divorced for two years now and has forgotten about the idea of finding another man. But destiny is playing a cute joke on her to let her met him.

He is successful and powerful and full of distrust on women.

Until he met her.

After that one fateful encounter, are they destined to be together forever? Is God of happiness finally bestowing this tiny spring water to both of them?

ps: I only write happy ending stories. This is 1v1, with a little drama here and there. But those drama only served a purpose to strengthen their relationship. Female lead here is not perfect at all. She is insecure, full of flaws and broken. Male lead is gorgeous and charming as usual. But somehow, they complete each other.

There will be no pitiful weak Cinderella stories here, no white lotus and no almighty CEO that rule the country.

I am portraying normal average people in society. So if this is not your cup of tea, feel free to move on :)

I Deserve a Second Chance

When he came back to their table, Li Xiqing saw Yan Yan was bowing a little to an old lady who sat next to their table. He also saw that on top of their table, now sat a decadent slice of apple pie.

Li Xiqing put the tray of their food, and threw a questioning look towards Shao Yan.

She saw him just when he lifted his face, Shao Yan gave a small smile, and pointed to the chair across from her, "Xiqing, sit down. Look, I bought an apple pie," and then she grinned at him.

After Li Xiqing sat down, Shao Yan started to say, "I saw a few people have been carrying this pie with them, so I got curious. I asked the granny who sat next to you to look after our groceries while I went to buy the pie."

She lifted up the bowl of beef noodle soup and placed it in front of Li Xiqing, "You eat this first, I will eat the pasta."
