Chapter Eleven: A Night to Remember

Mu Yusi took Ava's hand again, leading her to a nearby bench. They sat down together, the silence between them palpable.

Ava couldn't help but wonder what Mu Yusi was thinking. Was he interested in her, or was this just a game to him?

As if sensing her thoughts, Mu Yusi turned to her, his eyes piercing. "Ava, I want to be honest with you," he said, his voice low and husky.

Ava's heart skipped a beat, her pulse racing with anticipation. "What do you mean?" she asked, trying to sound calm.

Mu Yusi leaned in closer, his face inches from hers. "I'm not just looking for a casual fling," he whispered, his breath sending shivers down Ava's spine.

Ava felt a surge of surprise, followed by a wave of curiosity. What did Mu Yusi want from her, exactly?

As if sensing her confusion, Mu Yusi pulled back, a small smile playing on his lips. "I want to get to know you better, Ava," he said, his eyes sparkling with intensity.

Ava felt a flutter in her chest, her heart racing with excitement. She couldn't deny the strong attraction she felt towards Mu Yusi, but she was also wary of getting hurt.

As they sat there in silence, Ava realized that she had a choice to make. She could take a chance on Mu Yusi, or she could play it safe and walk away..

Ava felt a surge of disappointment, followed by a wave of curiosity.

As they stood there, the sound of crickets and rustling leaves filling the air, Ava couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. She had never been one for games or teasing, but there was something about Mu Yusi's mischievous grin that made her want to play along.

"Okay, I'll wait," Ava said, trying to sound nonchalant despite the butterflies in her stomach.

Mu Yusi chuckled, his eyes glinting with amusement. "I'm glad you're willing to play along," he said, offering her his arm.

Ava took it, feeling a spark of electricity as their skin touched. They strolled through the garden, the sound of music drifting through the air.

As they walked, Ava noticed that the garden was filled with people, all dressed in formal attire. There were strings of fairy lights hanging from the trees, and a large fountain in the center of the garden.

"What is this place?" Ava asked, feeling a sense of wonder.

"It's a private garden," Mu Yusi replied, his voice low and mysterious. "One that's only open to a select few."

Ava felt a shiver run down her spine as Mu Yusi led her deeper into the garden. She had no idea what lay ahead, but she was determined to find out.

As they reached the fountain, Mu Yusi turned to her, his eyes burning with intensity. "I have one more surprise for you," he said, his voice low and husky.

Ava's heart skipped a beat as Mu Yusi pulled out a small box from his pocket. He opened it, revealing a beautiful silver necklace with a small crystal pendant.

"It's beautiful," Ava breathed, feeling a sense of wonder.

Mu Yusi smiled, his eyes glinting with pleasure. "I'm glad you like it," he said, fastening the necklace around her neck.

As Ava felt the cool metal against her skin, she couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. What did Mu Yusi have planned for her? And what did this necklace mean?

Just then, the sound of applause filled the air, and Ava turned to see a group of people gathered around a small stage. Mu Yusi took her hand, leading her towards the stage.

As they reached the front row, Ava saw a group of musicians taking their seats. Mu Yusi smiled, his eyes glinting with excitement.

"I have one more surprise for you," he said, his voice low and husky.

Ava felt a surge of anticipation as the musicians began to play. The music was beautiful, a haunting melody that sent shivers down Ava's spine.

As she listened, Ava felt a sense of wonder. What was Mu Yusi's plan? And what did this music have to do with it?

Just then, the singer began to sing, her voice soaring through the night air. Ava felt a sense of enchantment, the music and the moment weaving a spell around her.

As she stood there, lost in the beauty of the music, Ava felt Mu Yusi's hand on her waist. He pulled her close, his lips whispering against her ear.

"I want to dance with you," he said, his voice low and husky.

Ava felt a shiver run down her spine as Mu Yusi's words sent a flutter through her chest. She nodded, feeling a sense of excitement and anticipation.

As they danced under the stars, Ava felt a sense of wonder.

Mu Yusi's hand was on her waist, his fingers pressing gently against her skin. She could feel the warmth of his body, the beat of his heart.

The music was hypnotic, the melody weaving a spell around them. Ava felt herself getting lost in the moment, her senses overwhelmed by the sights and sounds.

Mu Yusi's eyes were locked on hers, his gaze burning with intensity. Ava felt a shiver run down her spine as he pulled her closer, his lips inches from hers.

The music reached a crescendo, the singer's voice soaring through the night air. Ava felt herself getting swept up in the moment, her heart pounding in her chest.

And then, just as suddenly, the music stopped. The crowd erupted into applause, and Ava felt Mu Yusi's hand release its grip on her waist.

She stepped back, feeling a sense of disorientation. Mu Yusi smiled, his eyes glinting with amusement.

"I think it's time for our final surprise," he said, his voice low and husky.

Ava felt a surge of anticipation. What did Mu Yusi have planned for her?

As they walked through the crowd, Ava noticed a group of people gathered around a large, ornate door. Mu Yusi led her towards the door, his hand on her elbow.

"What's behind the door?" Ava asked, feeling a sense of curiosity.

Mu Yusi smiled, his eyes glinting with mischief. "You'll have to see for yourself," he said.

And with that, he pushed open the door, revealing a room filled with candles and flowers. Ava gasped in surprise, feeling a sense of wonder.
