Sentiments

Jiang Yue and Fu Jin had been on an awkward silence since they boarded the car.

However, Jiang Yue was not feeling awkward at all. She was just in a deep thought.

They are officially together. Jiang Yue never experience this type of relationship in her previous life so she is somewhat clueless on what to do next.

This kind of relationship is totally foreign to her.

Jiang Yue close her eyes as her mind started to wander. When she met Fu Jin, she never thought that this day would come.

Jiang Yue laughed inwardly when she remembered how she threatened to kill Fu Jin the first time they met. Then her emotions turn a sudden drop when she remembered the things that happened when she was at the hospital. She still can't forget his fearful cries and his mournful voice begging for her to wake up.

Is it really possible? Falling in love because of some dreams?

Jiang Yue can't help but wonder what the future holds for the both of them. She already changed a big part of what's about to happen. Now, she is also expecting a great change from Fu Jin's appearance.

But she can't also deny the excitement in her heart.

Now that they are officially together, does that mean that she will be able to experience all the things that she was not able to enjoy in her previous life?

Like a memorable first kiss?

Or maybe even falling in love?

Love? Is that really possible for her?

Jiang Yue shake the thoughts out of her mind. Having doubts in this life is useless. Whatever the future holds she is always ready to face it.

She opened her eyes and fixed her gaze at Fu Jin who was already staring at her intently. Fu Jin seemed to be engrossed in his own thoughts that she did not even notice Jiang Yue's eyes fixed on him.

"Ehem… so where are we going?"She asked.

Fu Jin always had this habit. Staring at her while thinking deeply.

He would stare at her like she is a porcelain doll. Something so fragile. Something that might crumble and break anytime. Something that would disappear.

Jiang Yue always wonder why he always does this, but she never had the guts to ask him.

"It's a surprise." He answered while giving her a mischievous grin.

"We are already outside of the city." Jiang Yue blurted out her observation. It seems that they are on their way to the mountainous part of the country.

Fu Jin just nodded. "Hmmm… you will know our destination soon."

After another hour of what seems to be an endless car ride, the car finally showed signs of slowing down.

"We're here?" She inquired while beaming at Fu Jin.

Aside from Jiang Yue's whirlwind thoughts, she is also very happy and excited. If she guessed it right then, this would be their first date.

Fu Jin didn't say anything. He just gets out of the car and made his way to the other side of the door to open it for her.

Jiang Yue step out of the car and was immediately welcomed by scenic beauty and fresh air.

"Wow!" She can't help but appreciate the beautiful scene in front of her.

They seem to be in a park. Acres of rolling lawn with soft grassy ground and perfectly line tress can be seen all over the place.

This is a perfect picnic spot!

She can see the shades and streams of sunlight softly filtered through the canopy of trees surrounding the area. The intoxicating smell of nature enveloped her as she was listening to the chirping sound of birds and water from a nearby stream.

The current environment made her relaxed and comfortable.

Then she noticed Fu Jin plaid a picnic blanket under the biggest tree adjacent to the stream. Bei'Ye also brought a basket from the car.

Inside the blanket were all delicious homemade lunch and snacks. Of course, there were also homemade drinks and desserts.

These are all her favorites!

She excitedly runs towards them and took a seat beside Fu Jin.

Good thing she is not wearing a dress today, or else this will be uncomfortable for her.

"Do you like it?" Fu Jin asked as he handed her a sandwich.

Jiang Yue accepted the sandwich and directly took a bite out of it.

"Yes! I love it!" She answered, her eyes are forming into two beautiful crescents.

Then she picks up a glass of what she guessed was a blueberry lemonade, one of her favorites.

"You really know me too well. Sometimes I think that you know me more than I know myself." She said jokingly.

Fu Jin fell into silence as he looks into the stream in front of them.

"You know, I am not doing all this to impress you." He started. "I'm doing this to remind you that you are the best thing that ever happened to me."

"And to show you how thankful I am have met you once in my dreams." Then he looked at Jiang Yue again. His eyes are full of unspoken emotions. "Thank You." He said.

As their eyes met, Jiang Yue felt her heart skip a beat.

"What are you thanking me for?" She asked clearly confused. She didn't remember doing something for Fu Jin. In fact, she never did anything for him at all!

"For making my life worth living."

Jiang Yue lowered her head after hearing Fu Jin's statement.

Fu Jin had been so good to her, she is somehow afraid that this will suddenly end.

Does she really deserve this? All of this?

She did a lot of bad things in her previous life. All she wanted in this life is to be happy.

This is out of her expectations at all.

Jiang Yue was so absorbed in her current thoughts that she failed to notice the tears starting to pour from her eyes.

Seeing this, Fu Jin immediately moves towards her and covered her in his embrace.

"You deserved it." He said as if he could read the vortex of emotions and thoughts slowly trying to consume her.

"Trust me. You deserve more than this."He whispered while slowly patting her back.

His words full of emotions made Jiang Yue let go of her pent up sentiments.

So what if she did some crazy things in her past?

So what if she made herself dirty before?

So what if she is as filthy as the mud before she died?

Does that mean she doesn't deserve another shot at love?

Does that mean she doesn't deserve to experience this type of happiness?

Does that mean she doesn't deserve someone like... Fu Jin?

She sank into the warmth of his embrace as she started to thank the gods for giving her a chance to experience this.

"Thank You." She sobbed.

Then Jiang Yue felt something melt inside her as she wrapped her arms around him, not wanting this moment to end.
