CHAPTER 490

Jiang Meilin remained quiet all through their rode back to the Jiang mansion. Her mind was still replaying the kiss that happened at the snowy field.

At times her hand would unconsciously raise to her lips before she would abruptly put it back down on her lap.

Finally, she and Zhao Fu are official lovers now..Just this morning they were... Friends. And now they were holding hands in his car like an old couple-

How did it all come to this again?

**Flashback**

Jiang Meilin was still in daze even after the kiss. She could hardly believe what Zhao Fu did. Was the kiss supposed to help her know what she felt for him?

How could he do that without her permission? But... Oddly, she did not feel repulsed by the kiss. Instead it sent sparks like it did during their younger days.

Ever so slowly, he right hand raised to touch her lips. Her eyes were still locked with his. Before she knew it, heat crept up her face.

She was blushing.

Meanwhile, Zhao Fu who was hoping that he did not step over the line was realised sewing the bright red colour appearing on her dazed face. It only meant that she was not angry but just surprised.

He had expected in one part of his mind that she would push him away and slap him hard across the face. But none of it happened as minutes went by.

"Mei? Are you okay?" Zhao Fu asked after a silent long while. He was beginning to get scared and anxious. She was not saying or doing anything and that was enough to make him panic.

"Zhao... Y-You..." Jiang Meilin could not form any coherent words to say to the man she thought was cold and incapable of doing such a thing.

"Mei, I–"

"You... How dare you steal my second first kiss?" Jiang Meilin abruptly said while punching his shoulder.

"I'm sorry. I crossed the line there. I should not have done that. Please, forgive me," Zhao Fu apologised with a sorry aye dissapointed face.

And there he was having his hopes high get that Jiang Meilin would feel the same as he does feel for her. He thought she would reciprocate his love.

However, he did not know that the angry blushing red woman before him was just yet no to sort herself out and return to being calm.

But upon seeing Zhao Fu's downcast expression, she sighed. 'You have already delayed a lot Jiang Meilin. Give yourself and Zhao Fu a chance. It is not like you so not like him or anything. Some stalling time already. Life does not have a duplicate version. Give yourself the opportunity to be happy once again,' so she thought.

"Zhao Fu, why are you apologising?"

"Huh? I-I kissed you without your permission. Look, I did not mean to... No, Ieant to but not without your consent or before we even become official and stuff like that. It was stupid of me and I am sorry but not for the kiss but for doing so without your consent," Zhao Fu answered.

He looked like a kid being scolded by his mother for doing something irresponsible. Jiang Meilin found this oddly cute when with the predicament she has come to find herself in.

"Sigh... I accept," Jiang Meilin suddenly said. She tried to steel her expression to hide the character of a teenage girl in her from revealing itself.

"You accept? What are you acce–"

"I accept you confession of love. You said you love me right?" Jiang Meilin got an answer when he nodded his head slowly and voiced out a 'yes.'

"So I am saying that I feel the same way. I-I love you too," she stuttered the last three words before looking away from him and standing up. "We should get going now. I am started to get cold from staying out here for too long."

Zhao Fu hurriedly stood up and hugged her before she could walk away. He made sure his grip was tight like to prevent her from leaving to his awaiting car.

"Thank you, Mei. I swear that you will never regret loving me back," he said.

"Hmm. Let us both try our best doe this to work out well for us," was all Jiang Meilin said as she turned to return his hug.

**Flahsback Ends**

"We are here now. This is the mansion right?" Zhao Fu's question brought Jiang Meilin back from her train of thought.

When she raised her eyes and let her gaze wander, she noticed that they had already gotten to the Jiang mansion. As of now, they were currently stand-in in from of the closed door.

"I will have to go from here," his voice rang out again.

Tilting her head to the side to stare at him, Jiang Meilin's brows furrowed. "You are not going to come in and say hello to everyone or my father?" She asked.

"I would do that some other time... Like tomorrow. But for now, I need to be fully prepared before facing your old man," he replied.

"Oh, alright." She nodded as his reason sounded plausible in her ears.

Taking a step to close the gap between them, Zhao Fu planted a soft kiss on her forehead before stepping away. "Go in first before I leave."

"I-I okay," Jiang Meilin showed him a shy smile before opening the door and steeping in. "Good night, Zhao Fu."

"Good night, Mei."

After saying their goodbyes for the day, Jiang Meilin closed the door and rested her back on it. She let out a long sigh with her eyes closed.

Today was indeed a long day but it was all worth it in the end. She found love again and she felt lighthearted.

Jiang Meilin touched her lips again before a genuine happy smile bloomed in her still-young face. A new chapter has begun for her.

"Oh! Someone is on cloud nine."
