Inside Elegancy, Zhao Ya'Er stood by the many windows as she watched the white Aston Martin drove away from view. She held a smile and was genuinely happy for her cousin.
As Lu Tian and Lu Han's only cousin, she knows that there have been countless women chasing after the two brothers, but none have succeeded. That is until now that Yue Ling has captured Lu Tian's heart leaving only Lu Han on the market.
"What are you looking at?"
From behind, Madam Zhao asks as she walks over to stand next to her daughter. She stuck her head forward to see out the window but didn't know where to look.
Zhao Ya'Er looks at her mother and laughs at the woman. She locks her arm with the woman's and turns both their body away from the window.
"We should get going too or else we'll miss it."
Her words fell naturally but deep inside she couldn't wait to see Xu Long again. Their encounter was too short and she wanted to talk to him some more.
Madam Zhao smiles at her daughter but doesn't say anything. How can she not know what her daughter is thinking?
Through the streets of Imperial, Yue Ling stares out the passenger window in silence. It has been almost an hour since they left the restaurant and the sun was disappearing. Where is Lu Tian taking her?
She watched as the car pass the tall buildings, then the scenery changed to vast fields. Not long after, they soon entered a mountain with trees on both sides.
Yue Ling was in awe at the beautiful change in scenery she got to see. However, she was also relieved that the road they were on was cemented.
If it had been a dirt road, she would have cried as her Aston Martin was not made for off-roading.
Staring out to the trees, she grew tired of looking at the same thing and turn her head to look at Lu Tian.
"Where are we going?"
Lu Tian's eyes remained on the road as he switches the headlights on to see the road better. When he heard her question, he gently squeezes her hand that he never let go.
He knows that her curiosity is getting the better of her, but he cannot tell her.
"We're almost there."
Yue Ling scrunches her eyebrows and puffs out her cheeks like an angry chipmunk. She returns the squeeze on his hand and looks away back to the window.
She was sure that she asked him where they were going. Not how much longer they had left.
Another thirty minutes pass by and they soon reached their destination. Lu Tian turns the car into a cemented parking lot and parks the car.
"We're here."
Yue Ling looks out the passenger window, then to the front window before looking at the driver's side window. She was at a loss as their car was the only insight.
"Where is this?"
"You'll see."
Her question had yet to escape her mouth when Lu Tian answers right away. He unbuckles his seatbelt and opens the door to get out.
He also presses the button for the trunk and walks to the back of the car. Grabbing a blanket-like item, he closes the trunk then proceeds to the passenger side door.

However, Yue Ling had already helped herself out of the car.
Due to the setting sun, the wind was starting to pick up and it brought in a cold breeze. She held her arms and gently stroke each arm with her palm for warmth.
"Here, wear this."
Lu Tian opens the item in his hands and places it over her shoulders to keep her away from the cold.
It was tan-colored blanket wrap similar to a shawl but bigger and the material was thicker for cold weather.
Seeing the dressed being covered, Lu Tian was slightly disappointed that his view was blocked. However, he quickly cast this thought aside as his wife feeling warmth is more important.
He reaches to hold her hand and guides her to the front of the car. The trees that stood their ground separated into a path and Lu Tian takes the lead.
Yue Ling stares at his back figure and she couldn't help but frown. Judging from where he is going, he must have been here before.
The path they were walking on soon changes to a set of stairs leading down.
Yue Ling could not see in front of her, so she was starting to grow impatient. Her temperament was usually long, but she felt she has played along with him and everyone else for long enough.
"Tian, where is—"
Her words had yet to finish when Lu Tian takes three steps down the stairs. Her eyes widen and she inhales a mouthful of air.
From the short distance that they had come from, what greeted her at this moment was not trees but a massive lake.
The rich hues of orange, red, and purple from the setting sky blended over the lake as it cast a magical reflection in the water. Surrounding the lake were the many trees she had seen before. Each one stood unfaltering like a soldier protecting its homeland.
"Oh my goodness…"
She gasps a whisper and Lu Tian smiles as he turns around to look at her. He held onto her hand and carefully led her down the stairs until they reached a wooden deck.
"Come, I have a surprise for you."
Like a person who had been hypnotized, Yue Ling followed his every step. Even if she wanted to, she couldn't take her eyes off of the scenery in front of her. It was so magical like she had stepped into another world.
Once they were at the edge of the deck, she finally snaps back to her senses. She looks up at Lu Tian and her expression held a look of surprise mixed with confusion.
"What are we doing here? Can we even be here?"
She raises one hand and points back in the direction they had come from.
"I thought I saw a sign that said Private Property. Won't we get in trouble if the owners find us trespassing?"
Her words fell and she felt like she was having Deja-vu. Why does this feeling make her think back to when Lu Tian took her to see their house?
Lu Tian doesn't answer her right away but carefully takes a step down from the deck. His feet touched the bottom of a wooden paddle boat and he stretches his hand out to her.
"This is our lake. I bought it for this moment."
