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

Even though Caleb was standing right next to him, but Li Xiqing felt as if he was standing so far away.

His head was throbbing with confusion and then he felt his anger gradually rise up. Li Xiqing was stunned on his feet. A lot of questions ran through his mind at the moment.

His left feet started to march forward, but a hand grabbed his arm; stopping him on his track.

"Hold on, man. What are you going to do?" Caleb was holding Li Xiqing by his upper arm, "You gotta tell me your plans, man, so I know what to do. Are we hitting his face or are we punching his gut?"

"Stay out of this, Caleb," Li Xiqing wiggled his arm free from the hostage, "I know you meant well, but I have to face them alone."

Once he set his arm free, Li Xiqing continued his march towards the couple. His eyes were set on the woman who was snuggling closer to the man who had his arms around her shoulder.
