Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Look down? Look down where? Zhao Youlin furrowed her brow in puzzlement. A second later, as if she had realized something, she suddenly narrowed her eyes. While still holding the phone in her hand, she immediately leaned out of her window and looked down the street in front of her house.

The bright streetlights seemed to be covered with a veil under the moonlight, making them seem more gentle and less blinding.

At this very moment, a man in a fine suit was standing by the flower bed on the edge of the streetlights. The man was holding a phone as well. When Zhao Youlin leaned out of her window, he raised his head slowly at the same time.

There was no emotion on the familiar, handsome face, though his profound eyes were filled with tenderness under the mellow and radiant moonlight.

Under the same full moon, these two people stared at each other. One was upstairs, and the other downstairs.

Zhao Youlin was still a little surprised. She also found the situation ludicrous. Then, her smile gradually faded away from her face little by little.

They just stood there staring at each other. After quite a while, Zhao Youlin became the first to be unable to bear with this anymore; she turned around and ran downstairs.

It was a good thing that it was already midnight. Although there were still many servants working overtime to prepare for the wedding tomorrow, the dark night still provided Zhao Youlin with a lot of conveniences.

Zhao Youlin deliberately avoided the servants who were still busy working in the lobby. It did not take her long to go through the yard downstairs and walk toward the side of the flower bed—the place where Mu Tingfeng was standing.

Moonlight fell on the man’s tall and upright body, covering him with a faint glow. When the man heard Zhao Youlin’s footsteps, he turned around slowly and looked in Zhao Youlin’s direction. His tranquil eyes shone with doting love and delight.

Without thinking much, Zhao Youlin ran directly toward Mu Tingfeng.

There was a muffled sound when they bumped into each other. They let out a grunt at the same time due to the overly strong force and reaction force. Yet they still did not let go of each other; they tightened their hug instead.

They gradually tightened their arms around each other, giving each other a warm and hard embrace. They could not help but feel content. The missing pieces of their hearts were filled quietly at this moment.

They just hugged each other tightly and enjoyed the rare moment of peace.

After a moment, Zhao Youlin exhaled lightly and broke the silence. “I have lived two lives, and I have never done something as crazy as this, running out in the middle of the night and hugging a man so affectionately…” She would not even dare to think about doing things like this in the past!

Of course Mu Tingfeng could decipher the lament in Zhao Youlin’s words and the underlying contentment in it. The corner of his lips raised a little, and he replied in a whisper, “This is also the first time I have ever waited for a girl under her window in the middle of the night.”

He had always heard people saying that when a boy was courting a girl, he would wait for her a long time under her window every day, just for the girl to turn around occasionally and notice him while he waited for her under the window.

When Mu Tingfeng heard that, he found it very hard to understand. He thought that it was beneath a man’s dignity to do such a thing just for a woman.

But when this happened to him, he suddenly understood that when it came to certain things, it was not necessary to figure out the reason for doing it and be afraid of embarrassment.

This was especially so when it came to relationships. Sometimes, the things that one did or the decision that one made was all based on the blossoming yearning one felt at that moment, such as yearning to see the love of one’s life, yearning to hear her voice, touch her, hug her, or even… kiss her.

It took an hour to drive from the Zhao Residence to the Mu Residence, and it took two hours to travel back and forth late at night. Yet he still drove here, just to see the woman in front of him. It was a simple yet insane act.

When Zhao Youlin heard Mu Tingfeng’s words, she could not help but giggle. “Waiting for a girl under her window? Do you think you are Romeo? First of all, I am not Juliet. I won’t do silly things like fool around with you at midnight and making a pledge to marry you without our parents’ blessing.”

Maybe what she said was right. However, Zhao Youlin was hugging Mu Tingfeng’s waist very tightly and burying her face in his chest when she said that, so it was really not convincing at all.

Mu Tingfeng did not point it out. There was faint joy in his eyes. He compromised and said, “You are not Juliet, and I am certainly not Romeo. I won’t let anyone interfere with my marriage again, and I will never let anyone hurt you and Joy.”

Those fairy tales were not real. He was not a fool like Romeo. It was already horrible enough that he failed to protect the woman he loved, and to top it off, he could not even tell if she was alive or dead. He ended up losing her for nothing.

Mu Tingfeng lowered his head and looked at Zhao Youlin. He added in an earnest manner, “Also, there is one more thing that I feel the need to correct you.”

“What?” Zhao Youlin wrung her hands and looked at Mu Tingfeng in confusion.

As Mu Tingfeng’s eyes met hers, the curvature of his lips became deeper and deeper. “After tonight, you are my legitimate wife. It is not appropriate to apply the phrase ‘getting married without blessing’ on us.”

Zhao Youlin was stunned. Before she could react, Mu Tingfeng had already lowered his head. Zhao Youlin had always drowned in his eyes, but now, they became more and more profound and tempting in the night.

Zhao Youlin opened her mouth, but no sound came out. She was standing quietly in place, allowing Mu Tingfeng to get closer to her.

Their faces were getting closer and closer under the moonlight. When their lips were about to touch, a cry suddenly rang out from inside the house. “Youlin! Youlin, where are you now at this late hour? Youlin! Youlin, where are you? Youlin…”

The lips that were only a few centimeters apart parted abruptly. Only then did Zhao Youlin suddenly realize what she had just done. She instantly blushed. Then, she looked up at Mu Tingfeng and rolled her eyes at him.

It was all this rascal’s fault. Why would he murmur sweet words to her out of the blue? It was his fault that she almost…

This guy, he always acted so nobly, aloof and stern to others. Why did he become such a smooth talker when he was with her? It was as they said, never judge a book by its cover!

What Mu Tingfeng liked most was Zhao Youlin’s irritated look when she was feeling embarrassed. When he was about to do something inappropriate but very suitable for the atmosphere, the cry from the house got louder and louder.

“Youlin! Youlin! Where did she go in the middle of the night when she’s supposed to be sleeping in her room? Has anyone seen Youlin?”

It turned out that after Duan Yarong took care of all the chores downstairs, she went upstairs to check if Zhao Youlin and Joy were asleep. Though when she entered the room, she only saw Joy sleeping on the bed. Zhao Youlin was nowhere to be found.

After what happened to An Yue earlier, Duan Yarong had grown a little paranoid and insecure over the past few days, and she grew even more suspicious lately as her son and daughter’s weddings were around the corner. She had been on edge, as she was afraid that something bad might happen last minute.

Hence, when she found out that Zhao Youlin was not in her room, Duan Yarong’s heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly ran out and searched everywhere for her..
