Chapter 351: Decisions
In a magnificent pavilion on a cliff edge above the the Western Sea, a transcendent beauty of a woman, was enjoying the breeze caressing her face, watching the fleet of ships anchored in the Falin Port while sipping the tea she made. While she was watching the scenery a young man whose eyes glimmering with smile was watching her. For him she looked much more alluring than the scenery around them and the tea she made tasted better than any he ever had.
Xing looked around to see the impressive architecture of the pavilion that suited her taste. The wooden pillars had carvings exquisitely made and it emitted a faint sandal wood scent. The chair she was sitting was made of high quality mahogany and the tiles of the roof glimmered gold.
The faint sound of the waves was heard even though they were at a elevated place and the pavilion fitted right at the sharp edge of the cliff and it gave the feeling that they were suspended above the sea. It almost felt like she was in Fei Lian’s floating palace.
From the railings, she could see the sea down below looked calm with not much waves and she knew the sea must be deep down them.
On three sides the view was the sea and the other side it was the mountain and the forests Xing was familiar with as she grew up in such area. And Falin city, where Haru lives now is really close to the Jin Manor, she could see the city from this pavilion.
What a perfect place! Chenglei was right when he said I’d love it here! My man... He planned everything for me... Taking my every wish into consideration.... How amazing is he?
Before she knew it, a smile formed in her lips and as she looked into the distance, the sun whose ferocity has reduced by the approaching evening, contoured her face perfectly.
Chenglei sitting opposite her was watching her forgetting even to blink his eyes. Her eyes reflected the sun and it made her already golden eyes glimmer and her perfectly smooth porcelain skin has a healthy sheen to it.
Her lips that were curled up in a smile softened her look and made her look younger than she is and her hair was swirling around messily in the breeze as if they are painting in thin air.
Wonder what her hair is painting? Chenglei wondered.
That’s who she is, isn’t she? Chenglei thought. He had never seen any woman who’d be comfortable sitting in front of a man with their hair messily flying around. But she doesn’t care and that adds more to her allure.
Ah! Who am I kidding? This woman would be adorable no matter what!
