She had stiffened up, started from his initial touch.

"I'm officially pursuing you."

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 :)

All she could see was white smoke covering her feet to her ankle. The committee had rented a machine to create this smoke illusion. As she entered, the first scent that she smelled was of peppermint candy and hot chocolate.

Shao Yan turned her head to the right, and saw that Feifei had set up what she called a "Sweet Station". The stall provided hot chocolate with candy cane stick to stir.

She noticed some of the guests were holding golden mugs in their hands; sometimes they would stir the candy stick idly as they chatted with one another.

In one of the corners of the room, a man in his forties was playing a saxophone while serenading the guests with "White Christmas" tune along with another woman who was playing the piano with him.

Li Xiqing saw that Shao Yan was looking at the hot chocolate table, and he wondered if Yan Yan actually wanted to taste it.
