Chapter 460 - Love Letter

The couple had their lunch while catching up with their life.

Xia Yu was listening to Huo Yun Chen telling her about the recording process when her phone started to ring. Xia Yu grabbed her phone on the table and her eyes lit up upon seeing the head nurse's message.

"You seemed happy. Good news?" Huo Yun Chen swallowed the food in his mouth and propped a hand under his chin to look at his girlfriend.

Xia Yu turned to him and smiled. She thought about the head nurse's message and wondered how should she tell Huo Yun Chen about the offer.

"Something you could not tell me?"

"That's not it." Xia Yu pursed her lips into a thin line.

After a brief hesitation, Xia Yu took a deep breath and decided to talk to him. It would be better to address this matter sooner and find out his opinion.

"That was the head nurse. A while ago, she told me about this internship program in F Country. If I accept this offer, I will have to stay there for a year. But I still haven't made my decision."

Huo Yun Chen put down the chopsticks in his hand. He pondered over her words and figured out what she was trying to say to him. "And what do you think? Do you want to go?"

Xia Yu pulled at her fingers. "I will be able to get a promotion once I completed the internship."

Huo Yun Chen gave serious thought to this matter. The two of them haven't been in a relationship for a long time. Thinking that he would not be able to see her as much as he wanted to made his heart ache.

However, he could not stop Xia Yu from doing what she wanted to do in life. He would miss her terribly. But it would not be fair to her.

Sensing that a certain someone was staring at him and waiting for his answer, Huo Yun Chen could not help but smiled. There was a hint of worry in Xia Yu's expression. It made him wonder what was going on in the girl's head.

Was she worried that he was going to stop her from going?

"I want to discuss this with you before I make any decision. What is your opinion on this?"

Huo Yun Chen stared at his girlfriend for a long time until she grew restless. "If it is something that you wanted to do, of course, you should go ahead and accept it."

"But once I accept that offer, we might not be able to see each other for a year."

Huo Yun Chen's smile widened. "You are reluctant to part with me?"

Her face turned redder at his teasing. However, she was indeed a little reluctant to part with him. She couldn't see him for a week because of their schedule. If she couldn't see him for a year, she would really, really miss him.

"Well, I will miss you too. But, even if we are miles apart, it would not be difficult to see each other. We can still visit each other whenever we are on a break. I know that we can make it work somehow." He reached for her hand and squeezed it tightly. "Xia Yu, whatever it is that you wanted to do, I will support you. I just want you to be happier and live life the way you want it."

Her heartbeat accelerated. Although she had guessed his answer, it was still a different thing to hear him say them out loud.

...

After his lunch break ended, Huo Yun Chen brought Xia Yu back to the recording room. When they arrived, there were two men sitting inside the room.

Huo Yun Chen pulled Xia Yu to them and introduced her as his girlfriend.

A look of surprise crossed the men's faces. But they quickly recovered and exchanged a greeting with Xia Yu.

Holding on Xia Yu's hand tightly, Huo Yun Chen continued to discuss his music. Seeing that it was time for them to continue and record, Huo Yun Chen pecked on Xia Yu's lips before he walked into the recording room.

The bald man who sat in front of the audio system turned to Xia Yu and flashed a smile. "It's surprising to see Huo Yun Chen bringing his girlfriend over to the studio. Miss Xia, you don't have to be cautious around us. We are all good friend with Huo Yun Chen and has worked with him a few times. We will definitely keep this matter a secret."

Xia Yu nodded. "Thank you."

"Miss Xia, have a seat." The bald man motioned to the sofa behind her. "It will probably take a while before the recording ends."

Xia Yu looked around. Then, she sat down on the sofa and made herself comfortable. Her gaze fell on her boyfriend behind the glass and found that she was unable to look away.

The thought that she was a fan who would be the first to listen to his song made her feel a little giddy. She wanted to show off to the whole world and at the same time, she wished to keep this moment all to herself.

A chuckle escaped her. Xia Yu thought that her thinking was a little strange.

Brother Xiang reappeared into the room at this time and he only greeted Xia Yu with a nod. Then, everyone started to focus on Huo Yun Chen.

The man continued to read the notes on the stand with a serious look on his face. After a while, he looked up to look for Xia Yu. His lips curled into a smile as their gazes met and her heart started to pound loudly.

Huo Yun Chen put on the headphone.

The music started to play and Xia Yu thought that the melody of this new song sounded a little different than his previous music. However, it was very pleasing to her ear.

Huo Yun Chen started to sing and his beautiful, soothing voice reverberated in the room.

Xia Yu listened to his singing voice and hoped that this moment could last a little longer. It made her feel as if she was in a private concert where there were only the two of them.

Then, the man looked at her with his pair of deep eyes.

Xia Yu listened carefully to the lyrics and her heart started to pound loudly. The lyrics...This feeling... it was as if this was a love letter written for her. Or was it too much for her to think of it like that?

Heat crept on her face and her breathing became a little heavier. Still, the two of them did not break their eye contact.

What should she do? It seemed that she had really fallen for him.
