Later that night, after all the troubles popping up during a major part of the day, Xiao Mai and Jin could find calm at last and retreated to her suite's balcony.

Enjoying the serene view of the vast sky above them, Xiao Mai turned to Jin and asked, "Do you think I have done the wrong thing?"

He was surprised at her question, "Why would it be, Xiao Mai?'

She simply shrugged and looked away thoughtful, "I don't know...These few days, I have caused lotsa problems for the press and Grandpa..."

He smiled with understanding and turned her around to face him again, "No, Xiao Mai...You've done very well...I'm sure if your parents were alive today, they will be extremely proud of you...But evenso, right at this moment, watching over you from above, they already are..."

Xiao Mai gradually smiled in response, "Ah...Jin..." She hugged him tight and then, gazing upwards, she was inspired, "You know what? I'd say that even though there's not a single star in sight tonight, I still know that they are countless of them up there..."

He nodded, "Not only when it's dark, but during the day as well..."

Xiao Mai added further in her thoughts, "Just like you, Jin...Whenever you're not with me, I still know that I'm in your heart..."

When they pulled apart, Xiao Mai folded her arms, 'Okay, thanks lot...Now, I guess it's time to drink to a toast..."

Jin was bemused and chuckled as Xiao Mai held up a pair of cups of latte and offered one of them up to his face. He remarked, "Miss Xiao Mai, I prepared these for us but latte will always be latte..."

She laughed and only brought the cup even closer to barely an inch from his lips, "Come on, I know, Master...Just bear with me...Latte is just perfect for tonight!"

He smiled with pleasure and complied, "Cheers!"

"Cheers!" Xiao Mai declared. Seeing her so glad, it really warmed his heart...Thoughts then wandered to that certain night...

Flashback...

She cut him back right away and folded her arms, "Also, those shining stars up there...But do you have to remind me of my embarrassing occasion with those pairs of high heels?"

He was slightly bemused by how their sweet conversation turned out to be an argument like this, "I just remembered, Xiao Mai...And that's because I even got down and helped put on your shoes for you that night..."

Xiao Mai did not appear to buy his words, "I see that you're about to break into fits of uncontrollable laughter, am I right?"

This time, he simply stepped forward in quiet response as if waiting for her to finish off all her protests. Xiao Mai was a little taken aback that he was not going to retort, "Jin,...so you're admitting that you really are about to...? Fine, I'm all well with that!"

Xiao Mai planned to call it a night and marched back to her suite when abruptly, Jin grabbed her arm and planted a tender kiss on her soft lips.

Her fast-beating heart was caught unaware by him again. Wrapping her hands around his neck, she was certain somehow that he felt the same, even much moreso than her. This brief moment of intimacy was the best way to clear up another one of their senseless bickerings.

When Xiao Mai pulled back, Jin simply whispered gently in her ear yet once more, "I love you no matter what, so it's okay..."

She smiled and kissed him back. Then, as quick as a flash, she got to steal a sip of his fresh hot latte before hurrying away from his side.

"Hey, Xiao Mai!" He quickly got hold of his coffee and chased after her, "We're not done yet..."

End of Flashback...

"Hey!" Xiao Mai waved hard infront of his eyes. "Jin, what are you thinking about?"

Alerting back to the present, he stammered and drank a sip, "Oh, you're aware of what is on my mind?"

Xiao Mai sighed, "Then, you're also aware of what is on my mind?"

He looked away and simply drew her near to his side, "Let's see, er...how's the progress of your proposal?"

She was confused, "Jin, we're taking our time savouring these awesome coffee by you...and now you're switching the topic to my proposal?"

Jin knew that he had made a bad move, "Okay then, just say anything that's on your mind then..."

"Oh," she pouted and resorted to stare up at the night view above them again. As she pondered, she was delighted once more, "Jin, you know what? I once thought all my dreams through the years had already broken to pieces when that day came crashing down on me..."

He questioned, "That day? When was it?"

She smiled at him and continued, "The day when Yi Zhong Guan first brought me back to this mansion...I was struggling to catch my breath the moment I first stepped in here until who knows when..."

As Jin listened attentively, Xiao Mai soon revealed, "But, it felt as though all my past, well-kept dreams began to rebirth out of all these challenges again since that very day..."

Jin asked her what day was that she just mentioned...However, Xiao Mai remained silent and only teased him that he wanted to know too much...Deep inside, she will never forget when...

Flashback...

A group of other attendees also came with him. Shortly after they made their entry, Jin formally made known that the press conference was for the commencement of a project to develop a Disneyland theme park in Taiwan.

Everyone gasped. Jin revealed more that negotiations have been kept extremely low-key while his company was working hard on them at the request of investing business partners. Other than those, there was a better highlight for the day's event.

He added, "Our project team has unanimously agreed that this multi-billion dollar project required a spokesperson to impact its publicity plans. After pondering over this matter, I have the most suitable candidate in mind. A person whose story could directly relate with the dreams and fantasies of children and adults alike, who have been shared the beautiful tales which Walt Disney have specially supplied us through the years. She's none other than Miss Huang Fu Shan...or as I have always called her by, 'Xiao Mai'."

Everyone applaused. Xiao Mai was literally filled with surprise, yet Mo Li nudged her to go up to the stage.

Xiao Mai was somewhat reluctant to do so. At this point, Jin looked in her direction, "Xiao Mai, are you willing to come up here?"

She got up and headed slowly towards the stage. Halfway through, Jin put up a slide, which Xiao Mai managed to catch a glimpse at before reaching his side. She thought it seemed rather familiar.

"Everyone, every girl's dream, like the Princesses in Disney's fairytales, is to be loved by her true Prince. What I have here is a certain work written to express this heartfelt wish, regardless of whether you're young or old."

Only now, standing beside Jin, did Xiao Mai realised it was her entry for a writing challenge she had accidentally told Jin about.

Jin paused briefly, as if he was also momentarily aware of Xiao Mai's successful recall. He turned to her, with a rather thoughtful expression, and then took out something from his pocket. Xiao Mai wondered in silence, but Jin soon showed it to be a little case which he opened to reveal a lovely-looking ring.

Xiao Mai was dumbfounded. He asked, "Miss Xiao Mai, will you accept me to be the Prince of your heart?"

She was too touched to say anything as tears welled up in her eyes.

At his seat, Emp was the most excited as he instantly stood up and shouted that Jin was doing great. Everyone started clapping aloud again. Mo Li grasped onto Cai and squealed. They all chanted for Xiao Mai to accept Jin's proposal.

Present...

Xiao Mai leaned on his strong shoulder, as her recall nearly brought tears to her eyes. Surrounding them at every corner on the balcony, the gerbera daisies which she had moved here from the apartment hideout gave her much cheerfulness, just like the flowers' unique meaning written in Shao Fu Ren's book. She now knows very well that Jin is the greatest gift from God for herself, a common girl who never stops dreaming and now, holds the world's most treasured happiness dearly within her hands...
