"...he rejected my call?!"

Qiu Yue was literally huffing in disbelief. No, but really how could someone reject HER call?!

Yao Yan took a look at her expression and threw her head back laughing.

"This is not funny! He- wow that guy!"

The more Qiu Yue protested the more it made Yao Yan laugh at her situation.

The moment Qiu Yue saw him calling her back she picked up without missing a beat.

"Why'd you reject my call?!"

"A— I was—uh—"

Listening to his flustered voice Qiu Yue decides to let him off the hook this time, though she still puffed up her cheeks indignant.

"Keep Saturday free for the both of us!"

"Oh, sure? Is there something important? Did you schedule a meeting with the composers without telling me again?"

Qiu Yue felt kind of annoyed. Why did he have to think of things like that now? It's not like she randomly set up meetings and jobs without telling him... much.

Only sometimes~

"It's a secret."

"...I'm your manager. Managing your schedule is literally my job, please great aunt..."

"This is punishment for thinking of me as irresponsible! Anyways just make sure we're free!"

Before he could even reply Qiu Yue had already cut the call and he was left speechlessly and blankly staring at his phone.

The entire week while they worked, the harder Qiao Feng tried to avoid Qiu Yue, the more she'd go closer to him.

'You run, I follow'

Qiu Yue would purposely get close to him, lightly tease him such that he felt it was just a coincidence, not on purpose and yet it drove him crazy.

Whenever he was looking at their schedule, he would lean over his shoulder, and the moment Qiao Feng turned he would see her eyes right next to him, so close even breathing seemed hard.

Every time her hands nonchalantly brushes against his, he could barely keep his expression in Check forgetting completely about his ears that would turn bright red. Seeing his reaction Qiu Yue couldn't help but laugh leaving him even more unsettled.

Of course, Qiu Yue went around testing and teasing his patience ignoring what would happen if did end up being Huo Zi Feng, if he was then she would definitely ask him out then and there... and then? Someone had to release his pent-up frustration.

Ai but seeking death was so much fun...

Finally, it was Saturday and Qiu Yue, firmly deciding not to drive ever again, made him take her to the same hotel and club they'd been to that night.

He was surprised at the complete VIP treatment they received. All the staff was waiting for them every moment. Of course, that was because Qiu Yue had rented the entire establishment for the whole day.

What was the point of money if you didn't spend it right?

As for if there were any scandals... if he wasn't her man then she would be too entrenched in looking for him, and if he was? Then why would she hide it?

If he was her man then wasn't it best to let everyone know?

It wasn't possible to hide it anyways. Such a popular club had been reserved for just one person. Doing that, it wasn't just about money! The only reason Qiu Yue could do it was because Qiao Feng was the owner's friend and her own high status.

Honestly, though Qiu Yue didn't care about that, she just wanted to grasp this chance as tight as she could so she'd done this to make sure they were completely alone.

Seeing that they were here and Qiu Yue had left to prepare something, he got drinks for both them. Though Qiu Yue had already custom ordered hers, all he'd done was collect it.

When she returned Qiu Yue smiled brightly at him, but he could pick up on her nervousness. As though trying to gather her courage, she downed two of her drinks right then.

Then she took a deep breath leaving him a bit puzzled, but he didn't have much time to think about it as the lights started to dim as a piano played in the background.

Then he could hear a voice singing in the dark, he turned to look for Qiu Yue but as expected she'd disappeared.

He wasn't sure what to make of it, but he followed her voice to turn to look at her as she walked around.

"If I could fly, I'd be coming right back home to you"

"I think I might give up everything, just ask me to"

Think? She wouldn't even hesitate because to her it wouldn't be giving up then, he was her everything, anything else she could easily get and find, but where else would she find him?

"Pay attention, I hope that you listen cause I let my guard down"

"Right now I'm completely defenseless"

This was her betting everything she had in herself on this one last glimmer of hope. She could only hope that this glimmer wouldn't disappear, that it was just sunshine she needed to find her way to.

"For your eyes only, I show you my heart"

"For when you're lonely and forget who you are"

"I'm missing half of me when we're apart"

If only she could tell him how much this was true. Without him, it felt like every part of her was numb with pain. Half of her? He was what kept her sane, he gave her the courage to be the person she was and who she wanted to be.

"Now you know me, for your eyes only"

"For your eyes only"

Slowly small soft beams of light illuminated the area like moonlight falling on earth.

Why did it seem like... Qiu Yue was going to...?

Qiu Yue walked out of the dark, switching off the mic and placing it on a random table before walked towards him in trepidation.

"I've got scars, even though they can't always be seen"

"And pain gets hard, but now you're here and I don't feel a thing"

She'd already recorded the song and had switched to the recording before appearing in front of him. She wanted him to hear these words as she spoke to him.

"Pay attention, I hope that you listen cause I let my guard down"

"Right now I'm completely defenseless"

"Qiu Yue... you..."

"I needed to. I know, I know what I said, I know what you think... no, I hope I'm right, that you do feel so..."

Really she'd couldn't be presumptuous and say that it was sure that he liked her, she couldn't be sure, not till he said could confirm it himself.

"For your eyes only, I show you my heart"

"For when you're lonely and forget who you are"

"I... I need to do something, and I need your help."

Qiu Yue had walked over, standing right in front of him as she gazed into his eyes.

"I'm missing half of me when we're apart"

"Now you know me, for your eyes only"

Like Huo Zi Feng, his eyes reflected on her figure with such clear beauty that she could lose herself in them.

"For your eyes only"

"I can feel your heart inside of mine"

Qiu Yue reached out to hold his hand, slightly stepping on her toes she reached for his lips but stopped as she felt his lightly grip her hand. She opened her eyes and stared at him, worried he'd reject her.

"I've been going out of my mind"

"You- you might be drunk, you had two glasses of-"

He hated stopping her, but he knew that if she was doing this in a drunken fervor she'd regret it.

Even though he knew that wasn't possible. Even if she was drunk now, she'd prepared all this taking a weeks time. There was no way being drunk now would change what her intentions had been all along.

It was just that he was so... scared. What if she changed her mind? What if she regretted this even then? What if she blamed him?

"Know that I'm just wasting time"

"That was soda water Feng..."

Qiu Yue smiled wryly as her eyes softened. She somehow could understand what he was thinking.

"And I-"

"Hope that you don't run from me"

"I won't regret this."

As his arms wrapped around her, using all his strength to be gentle their lips touched so gently he could hardly feel it.

"For your eyes only"

"I show you my heart"

"For when you're lonely"

"And forget who you are"

But Qiu Yue wasn't satisfied with that. She pressed in as their lips locked together and she could feel him respond.

"I'm missing half of me"

"When we're apart"

"Now you know me, for your eyes only"

His hand tangled in her hair as he was swept in by her impatience fervor to feel his presence, and his other hand cupped her jaw. And although Qiu Yue had this all planned, his lips so sweet, swollen and soft felt like she was finally home.

"For your eyes only, I show you my heart"

"For when you're lonely and forget who you are"

How could she ever regret this? For at this moment she no longer had any need for reason.

"I'm missing half of me when we're apart"

All she was knew was that their kiss felt like nothing and everything at the same time as even if the world burnt down around her, she wouldn't be bothered to care.

"Now you know me, for your eyes only"

"For your eyes only"

She was kissing the man she couldn't breathe without and she found that at this moment?

Breathe was of very little consequence.

'For your eyes only'
