Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Chapter 155: The bleeding heart

A luxurious and expensive car stopped. From it came out a woman in her early fifties and a young woman in her early twenties, wearing expensive and branded clothes, giving an elegant and rich aura came out of the car. 

The old woman's expression was gentle and pure, while the young woman had a proud expression on her face as if she was looking down on everyone around her. 

They both stopped in front of a boutique that looked on par with their status. The boutique had a beautiful infrastructure and was big to accommodate 1000 people or more. The window glasses helped to see the dummy models that were wearing beautiful dresses. 

It had all the varieties of the women's clothing, be it prom dresses or casual dresses or formal attires. Anyone would think that this boutique was old because of so many people with the same elegance came in and out of the shop. 

But the truth was, it had just opened a week ago and had made enormous development. 

Without any more haste, the two women entered the shop. 

Inside, they entered into a big reception hall, where some people were already present, occupying the seat at the side of reception, or mainly the waiting room. Instead of going towards the waiting room, the two women proceeded towards the Reception. 

At the reception, the attendant seeing them asked respectfully, "Good evening, Ma'am. How may I help you?"

"We have an appointment under the name Madam Li," the middle-aged woman said. 

Hearing the name, the attendant was startled, but quickly recovering she said, "Yes, Ma'am. Designer is waiting for you, please follow me," as she led them to their destination. 

With the help of an elevator, the three came to the second floor of the boutique. 

There were three floors in the boutique. The ground floor was the reception and the waiting room, the first floor was the showroom for the Non VIP members, whereas the second floor was for the VIP members. 

As they entered the second floor, they were led to a grand room. The attendant respectfully opened the door after which the two women entered the room. 

In the room, a young woman in her late twenties was busy setting the clothes on the dummy. As she was notified of the coming of customers, she turned around and said, "Aunt Li, you are here!" 

Liu Roulan smiled and said, "Yes, dear. Thank you for taking the time for us."

"No problem, Aunt Li," said Wen Mei with a smile. 

"Ah, Yes. Let me introduce to my friend's daughter," Liu Roulan said as she shifted her gaze towards Yang Sying who was standing beside her. 

"Sying, this is Wen Mei. One of Li Wei's childhood friends and the daughter of a close friend to Lis, Wen Mei. And Mei, this is Yang Sying, my friend's daughter. She came from overseas just two weeks ago," Liu Roulan said, introducing both of them. 

Wen Mei gave a smile and offered a handshake, and said, "Hello, Miss Yang, nice to meet you."

Yang Sying took the handshake and said, "Nice to meet you too, Miss Wen."

"Now that the introductions are done, let's get back to business," Wen Mei said as she withdrew her gaze from Yang Sying. 

"We have come here to select a dress for Yang Sying for tomorrow's party," said Liu Roulan. 

Wen Mei nodded and then calling her assistant, she said, "Take out the prom dresses for the Yin collection." 

The assistant nodded and opened the door which opened the large passage with many all types of prom dresses, of every color, arranged at the sides. 

Wen Mei entered the passage, followed by Liu Roulan and Yang Sying. 

Liu Roulan was impressed by the beautiful collection and said, "Sying, Wen Mei is a great designer. These are all famous collections. Look into them, and choose what you want." 

Yang Sying smiled and started to check the dresses when Liu Roulan's phone ranged, after which she excused herself and exited the room. 

In the room, there was only silence now, breaking which, Yang Sying said, "Miss Wen, can you please suggest me some dresses that are both beautiful and elegant. I want it to be unique, after all as Li Wei's fiance, I should try my best to not disappoint them."

Wen Mei who was busy setting the clothes was taken aback by Yang Sying's words. 

She looked at Yang Sying who was standing there with an innocent face. But for Wen Mei, this was no less than a shock. 

Before Yang Sying could say anything, she was interrupted by the entrance of Liu Roulan. 

Seeing Wen Mei's expression, Liu Roulan said, "What happened?" which made Wen Mei come back to her senses, and before she could say anything, Yang Sying said cutting her off, "Nothing, Aunt Liu. I was just asking Miss Wen, to suggest some dresses for me."

Finally, after two hours of constant selecting, Yang Sying found a dress which she liked. It was the most expensive dress out of the whole collection. 

Liu Roulan and Yang Sying after the payment exited the Boutique, which gave Wen Mei some time alone. 

Sitting in her cabin, that was a room as big as the showroom, Wen Mei drifted into deep thoughts, recalling what Yang Sying had said to her. 

After some minutes of thinking, Wen Mei took out the phone and made a call. 

..

The sun had already set and the night was approaching. Taking the advantage of the dark, the whole city of illuminated. Bright yellow and gold glistened off anything and everything. 

This deep bluish sky with a medium shade of ink black was totally different from the bright bustling streets below it. 

The people and lights were seen no less than small glistening creatures, and lights as a small source of lights, from the Li Corporation building. 

Li Wei was sitting at the sofa of his office, with a wine glass in his hands, in front of the glass window that showed the view of the night sky. 

His hands swindled the glass, but his lips did not take a sip of it. Li Wei's phone ranged, and so keeping the glass down, he picked up the call. 

"Hello," he said.

"Li Wei, is this true that you are going to get engaged?" said Wen Mei from the other side.

"Mhm," he said, his voice showed that he was uninterested to talk about this topic. 

"But I thought you loved her," said Wen Mei with an emotionless voice. 

Listening to Wen Mei's words, Li Wei was startled and after a moment, he said, "Yes, I do."

"So why are you getting engaged then?" said Wen Mei furiously, in her voice was sadness and anger. 

Li Wei did not answer the question, he had no words to answer. 

Seeing his silence, Wen Mei on the other side, gripped her phone tightly, and said, "It is great, right? How you told me one year ago that you loved her, and are now going to get engaged with someone else?" 

"I had no saying in this, I did what was right," Li Wei said, as his face turned cold. 

"Right? You think this was right? How? I can't believe it," said Wen Mei with a raised voice. 

After a pause, she continued, "That day you told me that she was alive and that you will find Yan Yan and would bring her back! So why?!" 

Li Wei did not say a word and rather he kept on listening to what Wen Mei said to him. He felt as if he had no right saying back answering about what Wen Mei was saying. 

It was true that he said Wang Yu Yan was alive, and that he would find her. It's been a year since that accident and, from that day on, he has done everything possible to find her. No, he was not ready to accept that she not with him. 

How can he accept it? It was impossible. No matter how much he tried to convince others that she was not dead, no one was ready to listen to it. 

And so, instead of wasting his time to convince others, he decided to do this task alone. With his resources, he did everything possible. But there was no trace of her, not even a clue as to if she had been erased from this world. 

The pain this cause in his heart, he hid it by working night and day, meeting people only for business meetings and things related to it. 

Drowning himself into work, in the hope, that the time would pass away like that, and one day he will get the results he hoped for. 

But it was not so easy after all. Every now and then, her face would come to his mind. How he was tempted to take her into his arms, for even a moment, and would never let that go. 

How he wanted to feel her, kiss her, hear her voice, and most of all, he wanted to tell her, the things that he hid inside his heart. 

But over time, not even one thing happened, and he buried the unspoken words so deep into his heart, that if he would take them out, for sure, his heart would bleed. 

Still, if he can see her, he would not regret doing so.
