Grandpa Lu kept praising his frist grandson achievement in Singapore. And telling her to bring him a wife and great granchildren. Grandma Lu and madam Lu kept pestering him too.

Lan Zhi Hua got up from her chair with her red flushed cheeks. Made her looked so adorable. Excused herself for getting freshen up herself. Grandma Lu and Madam Lu looked at her with worried eyes. And told Lu Jun to followed her.

Lan Zhin Hua walked around the garden full of roses. Even in winter the roses still bloomed. Her mind were wandering everywhere. From her time went she was in the us. All alone in the house. Waiting for her uncle to got home. Changed to the time when she got her first boyfriend and then they broke up because of their selfishness. And changed to the time when she saw Lu Xian cold eyes.

"Heh.. I... I know that eyes... that cold eyes... shit..why I remember him..." Lan Zhin Hua muttered to herself in english.

Lan Zhin Hua knew that cold eyes. Because it was how she saw other people wiht her eyes once. Cold and distant. Never allow people to got near her. She build a thick wall around herself. Because a man broke her heart to pieces.

She was eighteen, when she met him. he didn't knew who he was. They often met at the library. When one day, he asked her name. Her english name was Alice Lan. She told him her name was Alice. So she asked his name. He told her his name was June. A girly name.

Lan Zhin Hua always remembered that name. How could a handsome man with fine build figure called June. When she heard his name she laughed out loud in the library. Showing her beautiful laugh and ring bell liked laughing voice. June who saw her laugh so beautiful and saw her two dimples was captivated by her. Untill the librarian told them to got out of there.

From then on they met each other often. Spent the the days together. She really loved the simple and funny June.

Their raltionship were going on for 3 years. Untill one day when she was visited his home to suprised him after she return from the internship in another city. Right before she push the gate away, she saw him holding a baby with gentle smiled on his face.

He looked so content and happy. While she looked at June. A woman appeared from the door behind him. Hugging him from behind and he kissed her on her mouth. he gave her light kisses. While they were smiling at each other. Lan Zhin Hua saw all of it. she stood there in silent untill June looked at her way. She saw the surprised in his face. Before she could heard what June said. She ran out from there. Tears flowing through her cheeks. She still remember it was freezing cold that day. she ran until she gasped for air. she wiped the tears. And got on the bus to went back home. On the way, she hold her tears. But she could felt the pain in her heart. it hurted her so much. She got hard to breathe. His gentle face while looking kept floating in her mind.

She looked outside the window, and tears streamed down her face sliently.

Back to the present. Lan Zhin Hua still remember his gentle smiled. His laughing face.

How warm was his kissed, his hugged. How addicted his low sexy voice were.

She didn't realize tears rolled down to her rosy cheeks.

"Stupid Alice. Why ... you rem..member him..again?" she squat down hiding her face with both of her hands and crying herself out.

The wine made her remembered the things she reallly tried hard to forget. She was crying in the middle of the garden with the snow flakes falling down to the earth.

Lu Xian looked at her while smoking his ciggarete. He had been saw her since she was walked around the garden for the who knows how much she walked around.

At first Lu Xian fled himself from his grandma and mother who kept pestering him to be married. He walked toward the garden and stood lazily while resting his weight at the house pole. He looked straight at the garden and found a figure walking arounf he garden numerous times.

Until she squat down in the middle of it. he thought she was sick so he walked to her. The distance between them only 2 meters away. He realized that she was crying and sobbing.

He looked at her lonely back for a moment and turned back and walked away. He return to his original spot. Still smoke his ciggarete. While looking at her from afar.

Lan Zhin Hua who was crying herself out for 15 minutes felt tired and sober up a little. She stood up and turn around while wiping her puffy eyes. She got wet from the snow.

When she got near the house. She realized Lu Xian was stood there leaned back lazily at the poles smoking his ciggarete. Lan Zhin Hua stopped in front of him. looking at him in the eyes for a moment. She looked deeply at his eyes. And rooled her eyes down to the ciggarete. Then she looked up at him with her poker face.

Her rosy flushed cheeks made her so mesmerizing. Even when her large doe blue eyes was so calm with the redness, puffiness and some tears she held on to not fell, made her looked so adorable. Her small plump lips had became a bit pale because of the coldness. He kept looking at her who looked so adorable, he want to hugged her. Until he heard what she was saying in english.

"Smoking is bad for your lungs old man. Give me your ciggarete. let me the one who take the bad away from you!" after Lan Zhin Hua spoke those words. Her hands grabbed the ciggarete from his mouth and she smoked it herself.

Lu Xian puzzled when she grabbed the ciggarete didn't know what to do to her. He just kept watching her smoking his ciggarete with her long lean white fingers.

He stood there in silent watching the younglady smoking while snuggle beside him. lookin for some warm. He knew she was still drunk.

Untill the silent broke away when she said somethings to him.

"The cold in your eyes. I knew That eyes. I have it as well." When Lan Zhin Hua said it, she looked at him with her cold and distant light blue eyes. So contrast with her ink black dampeed messy bun hair. Her cuteness was so contrast with her smoking movements.

Lu Xian looked at her eyes for a moment and then looked at her small plump lips. Suddenly, he grabbed back the ciggarete and tossed it to the ground.

In the blinked of an eyed. He kissed her lips. A soft kissed. he pushed his lips to hers. Lan Zhin Hua was suprised. She was frozen still. Her eyes wide opened. She hold her breathe. Lu Xian took his lips away from her while looking at her eyes.

"wanna try it out with me?" Lu Xian said while looking at her light blue eyes.

Lan Zhin Hua looked at his dark brown eyes. and then looked at his thin mouth. She looked deeply at him. She smiled at him, showing her dimples. But in her eyes, Lu Xian knewnthere was sadness, fear, curiousity, and temptation in her misty doe light blue eyes.
