Throughout the afternoon Lu Sheng had no sky shattering work scheduled, except for meeting a few clients he was pretty much empty. Lu Sheng was in the middle of going through the proposal offered by an alley company, after reading it carefully he finally closed the file and helped himself with a glass of water. 

After a short break he kept himself busy with other works. The clock soon hit five and the employees slowly started to disappear from their work station. Lu Sheng too shut everything and prepared to leave; he looked quite, like stagnant water but his mind was no less that a rumbling sea, hitting and clashing with thoughts. Even after boarding the car he stayed mute as he stared silently outside the window.

The busy streets of Shenzhen, like always, were brightly lit with various people passing by. Since it was office leaving hours the roads were pretty m

  • Holding Onto His Distorted Love   HER DIARY

    Sometimes non- living things provide more comfort than living individuals- Lu Sheng had stored up so many unsaid memories in these verses. He was so lost in his own thought that he never realized when the song found its end; his ocean like eyes slowly fluttered open to discover something familiar. The road was splitting ahead, the left one would lead him to his home while the other would lead him to the hospital she was in.Lu Sheng stared blankly at the windscreen; he personally sent her to the hospital yesterday and it was the last he heard from her. Was she all right? Did she discharge herself?But who would give the answers for his questions? So, he spoke out, "Take me to People's hospital." His voice was bland but the car was silent enough for the driver to hear it clearly. The chauffer obediently nodded before tilting the wheel and changing his course.

  • Holding Onto His Distorted Love   THE LOVE OF MY YOUTH

    The entry was short and filtered but spoke of innumerable admiration and love, Lu Sheng, for a brief second, doubted if it really was Qin Yue's diary because she never took any initiative to praise or admire him, not even once. There was even a time when An Zihao called her 'pathologically unromantic' and even got beaten up to pulp by her.To be true, she truly was pathetic in terms of love! It had always been him who took the lead, he was not a romantic egg either but to make her happy he took special classes from An Zihao and mastered the art but she never made any kind of initiative to do sweet things to him or praise him in private, let alone public.As for Lu Sheng, he didn't mind it. He loved her for what she was, he never looked forward to be showered with sugar coated words. He was satisfied as long as she reciprocated the love he had for her.

    He reported, "Mr. Lu, I have did what you have asked me to." Lu Sheng, who sat dazedly, showed a reaction. Chen Han started to recite the report, "Miss Qin is fine and Mr. Li has been dropping by to take care of her. Moreover, she was allowed to be discharged but she insisted on staying at the hospital for two more days. As for the reason, she mentioned that she wants to be away from the world."Lu Sheng's eyebrows tensed up after hearing the report; she was afraid of hospitals and loathed them to death yet she insisted on staying there for more days. Did he just force her to this extent that she had no other option than to hide away in the hospital?No wonder she looked sad when he saw her at the indoor garden, no wonder she was reading about their past and reminiscing about the time when he cherished her. People had this tendency to forget what really matters; one

    That night, Lu Sheng, like the previous night, had to pour alcohol down his throat to sleep.The next day, Lu Sheng woke up with a splitting headache; maybe it was the influence of the overbearing alcohol or maybe the messy decisions he had been struggling with. Lu Sheng didn't have a good night sleep as her diary, her entries, her saddened face kept coming back to his mind like some movie; he was practically up all night thinking about what he should do.There were even times when, out of frustration, he smoked a bit to ease his tightened heart. His mind during those hours of struggles kept floating around her; getting her job snatched away, getting her life dumped must be really hard for her.Lu Sheng truly hated himself for being so fickle; his brain and his heart were in a constant war which tarnish

    Meanwhile in the car, Lu Sheng sneakily unlocked his phone and got into google. There he started to read about gifts that women preferred most! The article was lengthy and Lu Sheng didn't bother with he, he only got the main thing registered- cosmetics, bags, shoes, dresses and jewelry!The car came to one of the expensive shopping sites of the city, Gorgeous! Lu Sheng stepped down and scanned the building with his pearl like eyes. The building was handsome and even though it was only 9 of the morning he could still see many elite women going in and coming out of it. Shopping was something highly preferred by women; Lu Sheng helplessly nodded. In his 24 years of survival he had failed to understand why were women so obsessed with this shopping thing.Lu Sheng was upstage towards women, he had only allowed two women in his life. First was his mother, but he was not to

    When Lu Sheng exited the cosmetics section he was ready to go back home but a thought suddenly struck his mind. He had bought a whole bunch of cosmetics, was it enough? Even though he had spent a lot of money on it but still cosmetics were not worthy of being show- casted. To be true, they weren't that expensive! Anyone would afford it...Will she be happy with it? Or would she think him to be a miser?No, cosmetics were not enough... He had to buy something else too! He was not ready to give it a chance or leave any ropes untied this time. It had to be perfect even if it cost all his fortune.Lu Sheng thought about the second gift which was mentioned in the articles- bags. He didn't give it a second thought as he directly took large strides towards the bag section.

    Chen Han could not continue down with his analysis because through the window he saw Lu Sheng's tall figure coming out of the building. He hurriedly placed down the phone where it was meant to be and stepped out to obediently help the boss with the car door. When Lu Sheng got in Chen Han purposely peeped over his right hand to check if his doubts were true and yes, the hand did really belong to Lu Sheng.He weighed the situation and knew that he will be good as dead if the boss get's to know that he had secretly checked his phone, so he kept this little secret to himself. He completely disremembered the occasion when he caught hold of the boss's phone and pretended that it never happened but he could stop wondering, who was the young girl in the picture?The whole incident resurfaced in his mind as he looked back that Lu Sheng. Could he be selecting those rings

    The next day, Lu Sheng went to the company as always. Sitting in his cabin he switched to the television to watch her live interview. She looked more fresh and active than yesterday, she was tactfully answering the reporters. But the happy interview went downhill as someone raised the topic of her changing companies. The pen which danced between his fingers stopped as he looked up to concentrate on the screen; through the screen Lu Sheng witnessed the change in reaction on her face.She seemed to have spaced out, totally ignoring the questions that were being thrown at her. Lu Sheng knew what she was up to, she was remembering the evening when he molested her. A fair hint of anger and frustration combined with guilt surfaced his face making the air around him drop by a few degrees.The situation seemed to go out of control when Li Jin suddenly stepped in and op

    Qin Yue pulled down her lips to stop herself from blushing wide; stabilizing herself she gave up her thoughts about influencing his decisions. Lu Sheng never listened to anyone, not even herself, when it came to taking care of and doting her. He arrogantly believed that he was the best on it and surprisingly, he indeed was the best."I will be leaving to work, hubby!"In the meeting room Lu Sheng casted a radiant smile befor taking away the phone off his ears. He looked at Chen Han and ordered, "She is dropping by NC and is ready to continue with her work; make sure everything is ready and neatly arranged before she arrives so that she won't meet with any inconveniences.""Understood, Mr. Lu!" Saying this Chen Han took out his phone and walked out leaving Lu Sheng and the curious board members alone in that room.

As ordered she sneakily clicked a candid picture of her and sent it to Lu Sheng.The ice berg CEO was currently attending a meeting with a straight face when his phone chimed ending his long awaited wait. His sword like eyebrows relaxed and the corner of his frozen lips curled up slightly. Chen Han noticed this slight change in the President's face and immediately signalled for the representative to stop. As expected, Lu Sheng didn't make any reaction about the sudden halt in the explanation and kept on staring at his brightly lit phone screen.Xiao Xi's WeChat came through just now, he downloaded the file to see the side profile of his beautiful wife wearing a really cute and confused expression on her face. He adored the pic

    Lu Sheng pinned down both of her hands and started to kiss her; his kiss was not dominant but rather a mellow one. It was as if he was nurturing them and tasting her sweet lips to his heart content. He slowly traced down his fingers down her cheeks to her neck.Underneath him Qin Yue wriggled and smiled; his touch in her skin was like bare Heavens pouring down on her. She looked like a lost little kid who was suddenly brought up by someone and given the utmost care and love to.Lu Sheng's fingers moved to unzip her but he stopped; the girls breathings were slow and steady. It seemed that she was sleepy; Lu Sheng's eyes turned tender at the sight of her calm face. He pulled hismelf back to take a closer look at her.This woman... She got so nervous about tonight that she got herself drunk to hide it but ended up getting dizzy and slept.Lu Sheng nodded his head, sliding her bands aside he kissed on her forehead whispering, "I want to melt down in you, make you

  • Holding Onto His Distorted Love   LET'S CELEBRATE OUR WEDDING NIGHT

    The couple washed their hands and sat down to have dinner; the appetizing meal paired with its inviting aroma sent a gush of hunger down Lu Sheng's belly. Lu Sheng was a picky eater but when it came to Qin Yue he never complained; since she was living alone for a long time Qin Yue knew how to cook but she never gave any special care to enhance its quality. She was the only one cooking and feeding herself; there were even times when, out of tiredness, she used to skip meal and go to sleep directly.She was a good cook but her standards could never match to his tongues'; he was brought up eating the meals prepared by professional chefs. At first Lu Sheng had difficulties to get accustomed to her food style, even Qin Yue knew about it but there was nothing she could do. Lu Sheng never gave her a hard time though; he always ate the food without leaving a speck of rice and even used to compliment her.It's been six years since he was having food

    Qin Yue stood in the doorsteps as she watched her hubby leave for work; they were newly married yet they couldn't spend time with eachother. She sighed; Lu Sheng must hate to leave her alone at home but he was chained by responsibilities. As his wife she should stop making things difficult for him and rather support him unconditionally. Determined she walked in, changing her slippers she dropped on the sofa.Xiao Xi ran out of the kitchen to greet her to which Qin Yue replied with a polite smile. Lu Sheng's words echoed in her ears; it was their wedding night and she was to please him. Qin Yue's attention was drawed to Xiao Xi; she called her out."Yes, Young Madam?"Qin Yue replied, "You can take leave today; don't worry I won't reduce the salary." A smile bloomed on Xiao Xi's face as she bowed and thanked her good willed Mistress, "Thank You, Young Madam!" Saying these the little maid ran into her room and changing int

    Lu Sheng parted his lips from hers and asked her seriously, "Now let me ask you, being wife of a businessman is not easy, it's like living on a bet! Sun never shines everyday and never does business; there might be a possibility that I may go bankrupt and may not be able to give you a luxurious life that you deserve... You may have to face hardship with me! And once we go in and get married legally I won't ever let go of you... Life or death you will have to stay with me till we go down the grave together! Are you ready to face all this with me? Are you willing to be mine forever?"Qin Yue chocked on her tears which she was having a hard time to keep it, all she could manage was a little mumble, "I... I do!"Lu Sheng kissed the back of her palm which were still locked in his arms; he said, "Let's get married, Qin Qin!"Saying so he pushed open the door and came out, holding hands with her he lead her in.

    "Civil Bureaucracy Office?" Qin Yue spelled the name of the building which stood high and mighty in front of them. Lu Sheng leaned forward to help her unbuckel her her seatbelt and asked, "Where else did you expect me to take me to? Park?"A strange swirl of emotion stormed inside Qin Yue. Yes, she was the one who proposed marriage and asked him to marry her as soon as they return to the country... But!She was still unsure if she was doing right!Lu Sheng was the love of her life and she was willing to claim her life for him. But... what about him? All this while she was the one spouting her needs and demands without even asking if he was ready for it.It is said that marriage is a big turning point for a couple's life. When two people tie themselves within the sacredness of marriage all their self oriented-ness would turm into selflessness. Was Lu Sheng ready to take responsibilities of her? Was he willing to name

    "I guess buying him was a bad idea!" Lu Sheng stood there holding a plate looking at the girl playing with the puppy. He was jealous- why was that puppy invading her, his property. Lu Sheng couldn't help but give out a piercing a glance at the little puppy. Lu Sheng hated pets in the first place given to his obsession with cleanliness. He bought it to keep her company, not to steal his woman from him. Maybe Little Zhu Zhu understood what he said that he stopped and returned Lu Sheng's stare.Qin Yue was rendered speechless by the way the master and the puppy interracted. The ice seemed not to break so Qin Yue spoke up, "What did you prepare, I am starving!""Keep that thing aside and wash your hands.""Thing? Lu Sheng, he has a name!""I don't care."Qin Yue stopped talking at once, this guy was such a jealous little volcano. She obediently went away lest she pisses him off and g
