"So, you’re allergic to pineapple?" The doctor clad in his white coat asked her professionally. "I am. But usually, the reaction is not this bad. After eating pineapple, I only have a minor rash and that’s about it. This time it’s a bit excessive with all the swelling up." Xu Mey explained in detail with a frown on her face. "Are you allergic to something else?" The short doctor asked again. "Yeah, I have an allergy to peanuts as well." Xu Mey replied honestly. Her blood test results came…

The person Xu Mey venerated the most in this world, once adviced her. "Love the one who trusts you. Not the one who wants to trust you." "Is there a difference, Sensei?" She asked back then. "There is a huge difference, Mey Ai. The one who trusts you, won’t ask for a reason and the one who wants to trust you, will always look for reasons." From the time, Ye Jie helped her sit in the car, she’s been pondering about his utterance. He just believed her. Why? Am I that good at theatrics? And why…

"Ah, Liqing! Come here." Fu Lan beckoned her daughter towards herself. "Take a seat here." She gave her own seat to Liqing which was in the middle of Xu Mey and Ye Jie. "Ye Jie, our Liqing is really like you. She loves to work. Today is Saturday and she was still working hard at the company." "Mom!" Liqing pretended to be angry. "I can not be like Mr. Ye Jie. He’s such an accomplished person. Although he’s my role model I’m still far from him." Xu Liqing was in perfect sync with her mother.…

There was a man who went by the name, Shams Tabrizi. He once said: "Don’t search for heaven and hell in the future. Both are now present. Whenever we manage to love without expectations, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven. Whenever we fight, hate, we are in hell." But is there a love that doesn’t expect anything? Doesn’t seem to be. Is there a time when we don’t try to calculate our benefits? Definitely not! What about negotiations? We live in an age where we even negotiate with…

Ye Jie left Li Qiao’s office with plenty of things in mind. Even though Li Qiao didn’t say much but what he said was more than enough for Ye Jie. He was thinking about the answer Li Qiao gave him when he asked the question. "Does she not get drunk?" Li Qiao’s face was indifferent but his voice held a lot of concern. "It’s not that she doesn’t get drunk. Lin Shen said that she’s putting all her efforts in settling a psychological barrier. That barrier around her mind is not allowing her to…

There is a saying, "Let life surprise you." Nah! It’s actually not the life that surprises you. It’s the person you made your life that surprises you. So, let’s change the phrase a bit: "Let the one you call life surprise you." Just let that someone take the reins and let him blow your damn mind. It doesn’t hurt to be surprised once in a while. Xu Mey propped her chin on her palm as her clear black orbs stared at the man sitting before her. Xu Mey was rather used to shocks than…

Those accusing words were too hefty for Ye Jie to bear. He was shocked. "Because of me?" To make sure that he didn’t hear things, he asked again with an emphasis on his words along with his own index finger pointing at his face. Xu Mey nodded. "Why? Am I reminding you of the bitterness of life?" Xu Mey leaned back in her seat languidly. "No... You’re not the reminder of bitterness...." She sighed audibly. "Instead, you’re trying to show me the sweetness of life." "Isn’t that a good thing?" He…

Xu Mey was immersed in dealing with the office projects that she didn’t realize when the time flew by. It was only when her phone rang that she looked up from the pile of work on her desk. Holding the phone in hand, Xu Mey was surprised. Not because of the call from Ye Jie but because the call was exactly at the same time as it was the previous 2 days. "Hi, dear wife! Are you ready for our dinner date?" His disembodied voice was charming with a hint of coyness. "Where are we going?" Xu Mey asked…

As the saying goes: ’The best thing you could give someone is a Chance.’ It might not seem like a big deal to the one giving the chance but the one who gets that chance can’t possibly say in words how much it means to him. But for people like Xu Mey who’s thinking is like: "How can he possibly love a girl covered in scars? The scars that are even yet to heal." Giving that chance is akin to showing their scars. Now, it’s up to the other person whether that person puts salt on them or makes…

It took Xu Mey a long while to make Ye Jun understand the reason behind Jun Li Na not giving out her number. There were two reasons; first, she loved her fiance a lot more than Xu Mey could understand and second, Jun Li Na was an only daughter of a family that was deeply tied to the underworld. "Take my advice and forget about Li Na." Xu Mey tried to convince him. "Is her fiance so great that I can’t possibly compete with him?" Ye Jun was feeling indignant. "That I don’t know."Xu Mey replied…
