Unexpected Second Chance at Love

——

Stepping out to the patio of the restaurant, Yue Ling felt like she had just walked into an oil painting.

A huge green lake came to view, in the center was a running fountain. With gray and blue sky in the back ground, the view could take oneʼs breath away. Surrounding the lake were other restaurants, but just like the one she is in, there was not a lot of people sitting outside.

Sitting down, she hurriedly place her order and sat quietly as she waited for her order.

Staring at the lake, she suddenly thought about Lu Tian. Glancing at the empty chair across from her, she thought, how great would it be if they could enjoy the view together while having lunch...

Uhh.....

Realizing she had thought about the shameless man, she smiled a small smile.

ʼAm I....falling for him?ʼ

Thinking of it, the face of a man smiling appears in her mind. The manʼs smile was one that can shake oneʼs heart. His face was one that can make any woman fall in love with him.

Being reminded of her Shin, the smile in Yue Lingʼs lip disappears. Looking at the empty chair, she turn her head and stare out to the lake again.

Itʼs been three years since any man had enter her heart, let alone, get her attention.. well, it was more like she didnʼt let them.

It was not that she didnʼt want to move on... She just couldnʼt bring herself to... she has love Shin for ten years and he was with her when life had her at her lowest... He helped her see a new light in life..

He was the reason why she smiled...

After he passed away, she couldnʼt bare to betray the man she loves, even after his death.

Others may say for her to move on, but what do they know.. Have theyʼve experience the heart wrenching pain of losing someone they love?

Whenever she closed her eyes, she couldnʼt help but remember him. She had wanted to forget, so she couldnʼt feel the pain in her heart. Like a dream, she prayed to be woken up from.. but in the end, it was reality.

Losing someone you love can really change a personʼs view in life. Even if the person is gone, the memories and love will remain deep inside the heart.

How can the person who was left behind even move on?

Shin had once told her, time will heal, but...

Was it really okay for her to find her own happiness? Can she find happiness or will it be taken away from her again?

Can she love again....?

Staring out to the lake, she let out a small whisper, ”Will you be mad if I fell in love with another man?”

”Miss, your order is ready.”

Yue Ling woke up from her thoughts by the waiterʼs voice. She did not know if heʼs been there calling her or had just arrived, but it didnʼt matter to her.

Standing up, she follows the waiter to pay for her order. Swiping her gold bank card, she takes the bag of packed food and leaves the restaurant.

Seeing Yue Ling come out of the restaurant, the same valet worker who parked her car greets her.

”Miss, please wait here while I go bring your car.”

”Mm.”

Yue Ling nod her head and waited. She didnʼt mind that her car wasnʼt in front of her the moment she stepped out of the restaurant.

It was nice to catch a little breather from time to time.

”Excuse me Miss.” a womanʼs voice sounded next to Yue Ling.

However, Yue Ling didnʼt know who the woman was referring to, so she didnʼt bother to look. Minding her own business, she continue to wait.

Next to Yue Ling, three woman stood waiting for their car too. Zhao YaʼEr felt like an idiot. She had spoke to Yue Ling but the goddess didnʼt even give any attention to her. Then again, who would?

Planning to speak again, she was suddenly interrupted.

”YaʼEr, why are you talking to her? We donʼt even know her.”
