Chapter 28 [VIP]

Chapter Summary: My Lady of Fortune

That Valentine's Day, Yao Ye was busy with an advertising company project and had been away on a business trip for a long time. She returned on Valentine's Day itself. Early that morning, she took a taxi to the Belle Shopping Mall as soon as she got off the plane.

Just after ten o'clock, she stepped into the newly opened Belle Shopping Mall. She originally wanted to go up to the fifth floor to find her sister Yao Qin first, because Tulip Art Class was going to open a branch campus, and Yao Ye also splurged and contacted her sister's company to do advertising planning.

As she hurried past the mall map, carrying breakfast in one hand and talking on the phone in the other, she turned back after a few steps and stood in front of the Kazamado billboard.

“Wow,” she said to her sister, holding her phone, “Kazamado reopened after renovations and had some really interesting opening events.”

Just then, Li Fengjian walked over from behind the billboard. Seeing that Yao Ye had hung up the phone, he cleared his throat and greeted her, "Hey, miss, this place has pretty good food."

“I know.” Yao Ye looked at him and smiled knowingly.

"And judging from the billboards, the reopening promotions today are quite attractive. I think I should give it a try."

The billboard read: "Valentine's Day, I want to share more than seven parts of sweetness with you."

"The specific details of the promotion are: two cups of peach blossom milk tea with 70% sugar are 30% off. And full sugar peach blossom milk tea is buy one get one free." Yao Ye read aloud from the billboard, "This idea..."

Li Fengjian directly stated, "The idea came from Xiao Dong; he was the one who came up with it."

"That's really interesting."

"So, how about giving it a try?" Li Fengjian looked at her with a smile, "Just like back then, be the first customer after Kazama-do opens."

That is, my lucky goddess.

Yao Ye smiled and said, "Although the mall has just opened, are you sure we're the first ones to go downstairs now?"

“Of course I’m sure,” Li Fengjian raised an eyebrow. “I timed your arrival at Belle and waited here on purpose. The shop is not allowed to open until the proprietress is present.”

"Oh my god," Yao Ye said, laughing and crying at the same time, and grabbed his hand to run downstairs. "Then for today's sales, I have to hurry downstairs and be your number one!"

………………

And so, Yao Ye graced the establishment with her presence, and the first cup of milk tea after Kazamado reopened was served. It was a buy-one-get-one-free offer of full-sugar peach milk tea; she drank one, and Li Fengjian drank the other.

Li Fengjian asked her softly, "How is it?"

"Mmm, it's so sweet." She looked up and smiled.

While the others weren't looking, he leaned down and gently kissed her forehead, whispering, "Yes, I think it's sweet too."

The End.

[Author's Note]

Please add "About the Matter That I Think I Like You" to your pre-order list. It's expected to be released next month. The synopsis is as follows:

It had been over a year since they last saw each other. To be precise, Lu Yuanhang hadn't seen Ning Ning since the fierce competition of their senior year of high school and his entry into university. He recalled how, in their senior year cram school, their names were always among the top students. Gradually, he developed a competitive spirit towards her.

That year, he would approach her under the guise of studying, but he never mustered the courage to ask for her contact information.

Until this day, they unexpectedly met again under another sign for the Sunflower Kindergarten-Elementary School Transition Program.

…………

"As soon as summer vacation started, my parents drafted me to take on the task of accompanying my younger brother to and from school," Lu Yuanhang said.

"What a coincidence! As soon as summer vacation started, I became the eldest sister and took on the responsibility of picking up and accompanying my younger sister to school," Ning Ning said.

His younger brother and sister walked out of the classroom.

The little girl glanced proudly at the little boy. "I got a perfect score this time. But don't be discouraged, the teacher said there will be a challenge game next class, so keep trying!"

The little boy's lips tightened into a thin line. "I'll definitely try my best. Let's compete again next time we play!"

So after school that day

The little boy asked Lu Yuanhang, "Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Lu Yuanhang pondered: "I'm thinking about your next challenge game."

"Huh? Why are you suddenly interested in my studies?"

Lu Yuanhang coughed lightly, "...Well, I am your brother after all...Starting today, I'll help you review!"
