Chapter 1 - Morning Dream

The darkness has faded away and light is slowly lighting up the sky. The sound of the rooster has awakened the people to start their day and the hawkers started setting up their stall. The birds were chirping in harmony. The flows of the water stream flows swiftly yet still calm.

The flower festival has begun. The festival was lightened up by a great deal of laterns filled with various painted flowers. The people were amazed by the scenery of the festival. The fireworks had started. It was a beautiful scenery like a painting done by a master. This would be magical if it was in reality.

A young lady gazed at the view of the festival she felt like her heart has lit into a bright star. As she was walking around enjoying the festival she heard a voice which was a familiar voice like the voice of her maid. The voice was calling her. She searched for the voice but she failed and continues to spend her time at the festival.

She then felt a huge pain at the back of her head like a massive rock has hit her. Her vision has become blurry as it happened to her.

She then woke up and finds herself laying on the floor.She started looking at the surrounding of hers and realized she was in her bedroom and she could hear footsteps running towards her room and calling her . She didn't mind it and went back to bed and slept as she was still sleepy.Then someone came knocking the door and opened the young lady's door.

That person came in with sweats on her face and that person was Rouxi the maid of the young lady's. She came to deliver the messages from the Madame but as she came in her young lady was still in bed. Ruoxi tried to wake her up but the young lady looked at her maid with sleepy eyes and slowly put the sheets over her head.

"My lady , I have a messages for you from the Madame" Ruoxi said .

"What is it ?" The young lady replied.

"She asked you to come and meet her at the courtyard because she has something important to tell you." Ruoxi said.

"But it's still early in the morning" the young lady said .

"My lady, it's almost in the afternoon." Ruoxi

( Huang Ai Li which is the young lady. )

As Ai Li heard what Ruoxi said her eyes suddenly were wide opened. She quickly got out of bed and got ready to see her mother. On her way, Ai Li then thought maybe her mom was going to let her enjoy alone on the first day of the flower festival at last and the dream she dreamt was kind of a message to her . Well, she was excited thinking about it until she fell down but even though she fell she still proceed to go to the courtyard . As she was close to the courtyard, she overheard her mother conversations with her maid surprisingly not about letting her out alone during the festival but about her blind dates and marriage.

After overhearing the conversations Ai Li quietly walked away to not get caught by her mother but at the end, her mother saw her escaping from the courtyard. So Ai Li has an idea to put on a cute innocent sad face to pursue her mother just in case she mentions about her marriage .

Ai Li greeted her mother before sitting down with her. The Madame straight away asked her daughter whether she has someone in mind or not. Ai Li said no but actually she already has someone in mind. Then the Madame decided to asked Ai Li about how does she feel about going on blind dates . That's the time Ai Li got her ready cute innocent sad face on and said it's too early to think about going to blind dates. At the end, her idea was in vain.

The Madame paused as she was thinking to herself on how to pursue her daughter Huang Ai Li to agree to her idea. Ai Li already guessed that her mother will try to coax her into agreeing to her mother's idea. Afterwards the Madame proceed to shows some potential young masters with their personal information and asked Ai Li to look at them before rejecting them all. Ai Li took a look on the profiles with the hope of finding that one specific person.

Suddenly a maid came and told the Madame that we have a guest arrived. Ai Li took the chance to escape from getting to pick her blind dates since her mother will be busy treating the guests. Ruoxi whispered to Ai Li that the guest was young master Chen. The Madame Huang asked Ai Li to continue searching until she found someone that caught her eyes. Since Ai Li doesn't want to continue searching, she secretly follows her mother to The Wise Hall to greet the guests. Ai Li peeked from the secret area of the Wise Hall to looked and to listened what conversations they were about to have. Ai Li was about to scream as someone patted her shoulder from behind.
