From then on, Mo Shira and Yue Ling's relationship blossomed. He became her constant companion, always by her side, even at the company. They would share coffee breaks, laugh together, and engage in meaningful conversations. Their bond grew stronger, and it was evident that they had developed a deep fondness for each other.
(A/N: I hope nothing comes between your new found love...)
**********
In the grand hall of an Imperial City hotel, a vibrant atmosphere pulsed through the crowded space. People mingled, their varied attire a testament to the evening's extravagance. Laughter and music filled the air as guests danced and sipped their drinks. Amidst the revelry, Yue Ling sat poised in a corner, her striking pink and white dress and cascading hair drawing admiring glances from passersby. Her ethereal beauty earned her comparisons to a fallen angel, captivating the attention of all who crossed her path.
Across the hall, a mysterious woman commanded attention despite her attempts to blend into the shadows. Her back faced the room, her features obscured from view. Her presence was palpable, yet enigmatic, hinting at a hidden purpose. She had come with a mission, and her secrecy only piqued the interest of those around her.
The MC's announcement boomed through the hall, welcoming the celebrant, Chu Feng, to the stage. Applause and cheers erupted as he made his way forward, his handsome features and tailored blue suit captivating the attention of the audience, particularly the females.
Chu Feng's gaze swept the room, his eyes searching for a familiar face. "Thank you all for coming today," he began, his smile widening as he spotted Yue Ling in her striking pink dress. "I'm thrilled to see so many familiar faces from the Mo Corporation. Thank you again, and please, enjoy the evening!"
As he spoke, his eyes lingered on Yue Ling, his expression softening with a mix of admiration and affection. It wasn't romantic interest that drove his gaze, but a deep-seated desire to protect her, akin to a sibling. The moment he met her, he was struck by her resemblance to his late sister - same smile, same innocence, same sparkling eyes. Though she outranked him at the company, he felt an older-brotherly instinct to shield her, to be her guardian.
After concluding his speech, Chu Feng made his way towards Yue Ling, a warm smile on his face. "Hi," he said, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
Yue Ling looked up, her face lighting up with a smile. "Hey, happy birthday!" She extended the gift she had brought for him.
Chu Feng's eyes widened in delight. "Wow, thanks! I'm really glad you came." He gestured to the waiter. "Why aren't you having anything? Let me get you a drink."
Yue Ling shook her head. "I don't drink alcohol."
Chu Feng persisted. "It doesn't have to be alcohol. How about juice?"
Yue Ling relented, "Okay, I'll have an orange juice."
As they sipped their drinks, they engaged in conversation, discussing company matters. Chu Feng's expression turned sincere. "Do you know why I'm so happy to see you?"
Yue Ling's curiosity was piqued. "Why?"
Chu Feng's respect for her was evident. "I hold you in high esteem, Yue Ling. You're like a representative of the CEO, and when he's away, you're in charge. That's why I admire you."
Yue Ling's smile grew wider. "Oh, really?" She leaned in, interested.
Soon, the DJ transitioned from blues to upbeat rock music, causing everyone to start dancing. While Chu Feng and Yue Ling were in the midst of their conversation, Yue Ling began to feel an overwhelming heat and discomfort.
Yue Ling: "Chu Feng, I..."
She was on the verge of confiding in him when the MC called for Chu Feng again.
Chu Feng: "Miss Yue, I'll be right back."
Yue Ling: "Okay," she managed to reply.
Her face turned crimson, flushed from the intense heat she was experiencing.
Yue Ling: "What is happening to me? Why do I feel this way?"
She couldn't comprehend what was happening to her, as she had never felt like this before.
Meanwhile, in a secluded corner, the woman dressed in black was speaking to two well-built men who were also quite handsome.
Woman: "You see that girl over there?" She pointed toward Yue Ling.
Man 1: "The girl in pink?"
Woman: "Yes, that's her."
Man 2: "What's our task?"
Woman: "I want you to have sex with her on the dance floor."
Man 1: "She looks beautiful and innocent. I like that."
Man 2: "We could do this for free. I wonder what she's like."
Man 1: "I'm already excited. Don't worry, consider it done."
Woman: "Good. Take your time; I want everyone to see."
Man 1: "How do you know she'll be compliant? We don't want to get arrested."
Woman: "Everything is under control. Just do as I say."
Man 2: "No problem, but please distract the celebrant. They seem close."
Woman: "Focus on your job. I'll handle the rest."
Once the men departed, she smiled to herself.
The woman in black sneered at Yue Ling, her eyes blazing with anger. "You think you can humiliate me and get away with it, Yue Ling? You're mistaken. No one takes what's mine and gets to walk away freely. You've taken Mo Shira from me, and now I'll make sure he never wants to see your face again. You'll be the one who's left ashamed, not me."
She cackled with glee, clearly enjoying the drama she had orchestrated. "Let's see how Mo Shira will save you now, like he always does. But it won't matter, because by the time he arrives, you'll have already been disgraced. Ha! The thought of it is priceless."
[A/N : I just hope someone will be able to save you my dear Yue Ling, you have to fight for yourself. ]
