Chapter 70 - I like you, because its you. (1/2)

When Ming looked at him, to her he looked like Ji Cheng. She was bewildered, ' how could he come here, I left him in the palace'. Thinking this, she bends her head down, she thought she was just too drunk to have hallucinations. ' So this is what feels like to be drunk.' she thought to herself.

Then she suddenly looked at him. She doesn't want to waste this moment, even if this is hallucination. She never gets to see love in his eyes, and when she saw that love in his eyes, she had to leave. But this man in front of her is Liwei, not Ji Cheng.

She was confused, she had no idea what happening to her. For a moment, an absurd thought came to her, ' does he also came here, like me?' but then she suddenly shook off that thought, if he would have come, then who is the one, she saw on palace? It's just my imagination.

But ignoring her rationality, she stretched her hand to touch his face, she called him, ” Ji?”

She wanted to know if this is a dream or not?

She looked at him with love in her eyes. Her eyes welled up with tears, but she didn't cry.

When Liwei heard ” Ji” from her mouth, he raised his eyebrows in surprise but didn't refute her and let her touch him, saying, ” hmm” in response.

Then suddenly, the face of Ji Cheng disappeared, and she could see Liwei again. When that happened, her heart suddenly sank. She didn't cry, because some part of her heart has accepted the fact, that she is no longer Zhao Ming, who has loved Ji Cheng for her whole life.

Now she is Xie Ming and its not right for her to still have feelings for that person because it will be not fair to Liwei.

She looked at Liwei, a tear dropped from her eyes. She stretched both her hands, held his face, and pulled him closer. Then slowly and gently, her lips touched his. The kiss was gentle and it was filled with guilt and love.

When Ming kissed him, she knows that he is Liwei and that's why she did that. The moment she kissed him, she promised herself in her heart, ' I may not forget him fully because I have spent my whole life longing for him. But I promise, I will never be with you just because I see him in you. I like you, because it's you. And I might not forget him, but I will not love him anymore... Because we were not meant to be. '

” I like you, because it's you,” she said out loud, between the kiss. Her eyes were gentle and she looked like she is in a daze.

..

When she pulled him for a kiss, her sudden action surprised him. But he followed her lead. She kissed him gently and lovingly, though this kiss was like torture for him but he didn't take the lead and let her kiss him. Because he doesn't want to break this beautiful moment just because of his needs.
