The Serenity Between Them

As Shi entered the room Yang who was busy talking turned all his attention to her and upon noticing that her eyes were red he quickly stood up as he approached her with panic and he took her into his arms as he asked her.

''What happened Shi? Why were you crying? Tell me what happened?

Shi looked at him with surprise as he was able to identify the shift in her emotions, never would she have imagined that he would be able to figure out that she was crying. Ever since her mother's accident, Shi got into the habit of crying herself to sleep on most of the days and it was only her brothers and her grandpa who were able to tell whether she had cried or not and she hated to see the look of despair on their faces when they realized that she was still suffering from nightmares and that is when she got into the habit of hiding her feelings and expressions for she hated to worry them about herself.

Yang was the first person who was able to tell that she was hurt even when she was wearing her mask which she had perfected over the years and this made her fall in love with him more if that was even possible.

Feeling a bit emotional she just shook her head at him and tried to assure him that everything was alright,

"No Yang I am fine, nothing is wrong with me.''

Yang still looked at her sceptically, after living with her for a month he can proudly say that he can decipher some of her facial movements.

For example, when she is excited her eyes sparkle as if she had robbed the sky of stars and captured all of them in her eyes, similarly when she is trying to lie, her cute little button-like nose scrunches up just like it did right now,

Even though he is tempted to find out the reason she had shed her precious tears, he also understands that this is neither the place nor the time to discuss such matters and that is why he will let her off the hook but only for now, as he silently promised himself that once they reached the sanctuary of their home he will get an answer from her and no matter what he will never let her run away from him, not now nor ever

He also decided to slowly make Shi aware of the feelings he holds for her, today his talk with Xinghe filled him with hope that maybe, just maybe the two of them can have their own personal happy ever after.

And after a while, everyone was standing in front of the back gate as they all called their drivers to get their cars as all of them were quite intoxicated and would hate to get into an accident.

The first ones to left were Xin, Zehan and Mohan, while Ruan waited together with Yang and Shi for their respective cars, Xinghe who was also standing near them asked Shi,

"Shi, how are you going home?"

Shi thought for a second before replying,

"Um..., I don't think that I had too much alcohol so I would be fine by driving myself, but Yang you had too much booze so you should definitely go with your driver,

When Yang heard her, he immediately understood the reason why she did not want anyone to drive her and he would be crazy if he allowed her to go alone so late in the night, so he too thought for a second before coming to a decision,

"No Shi, I will leave with you only. Let's do it this way, both of us can leave together in your car while the driver will bring my car back alone, alright.''

Yang asked her but his face clearly showed that he will not be taking no for an answer,

'Uhh... He is soooo stubborn'

Shi thought to herself as she okayed Yang for his plan and so the two of them soon left the club with Shi in the driver's seat and Yang beside her as the car slowly cruised along the empty roads, with a song playing in the background, feeling sleepy Shi decided to turn up the volume so she doesn't fall asleep as she sang along,

''They say oh my god I see the way you shine

Take your hand, my dear, and place them both in mine

You know you stopped me dead while I was passing by

And now I beg to see you dance just one more time

Ooh I see you, see you, see you every time

And oh my I, I, I like your style

You, you make me, make me, make me wanna cry

And now I beg to see you dance just one more time

So they say

Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh, oh, oh

I've never seen anybody do the things you do before

They say move for me, move for me, move for me, ay, ay, ay

And when you're done I'll make you do it all again

I said oh my god I see you walking by

Take my hands, my dear, and look me in my eyes

Just like a monkey I've been dancing my whole life

But you just beg to see me dance…''

Soon Shi was so busy singing her lungs out that she forgot all about Yang who was busy looking at her a gentle smile,

From his eyes, all we could see was a beauty who sang with the window rolled down as her beautiful platinum hair danced wildly with the wind, with a huge smile on her kissable plump lips as her brown doe-like eyes glittered with enjoyment.

He wished to capture this movement forever so that he could show it to their little descendants later on and being a man of his words, he took out his camera and recorded her just like she was, with her hair all over the place and her gentle voice singing with enthusiasm.

And later on, that video was forever saved on his phone, waiting right there to be looked upon by a man with love in his eyes as he stared at his beloved.
