Flash back of last chapter:
"Yes. My father and brother are still living in Japan. I came to Hong Kong to get a job. My mother...she passed away when I was small," answered Sakura. Their conversation was stopped when a young man followed by a young woman rushed into the room.
"Mother! Are you all right? What on Earth happened to you?" yelled the young man. 'Wait a minute...he said mother...DOES THAT MEAN HE'S LI SYARAON?' pondered Sakura. He had piercing light amber eyes, and messy chestnut hair. No doubt, he was very cute. The young woman had ruby red eyes and long straight black hair. She was very pretty, too.
"I am fine, thanks to Sakura here. I was just about to ask her what she would like since she saved my life," Yelan nodded at Sakura. Sakura was about to say, "It's all right. I don't need anything. Besides, I didn't do much," when an idea suddenly formed in her head.
"I would like to interview Mr. Li and write an article about him," replied Sakura, ginning evilly.
##################
Present:
Li's mouth dropped when Sakura said what she wanted. He glared at her. Sakura's grin only widened. On the other hand, Yelan was amused.
"Interview? Oh! You're a reporter? Well...I'm sure that my son would be more than happy to cooperate with such a beautiful young lady! Right Xiao Lang?" replied Yelan.
"Mother! You know I hate reporters! They drive me mentally insane! And I can already tell that she's going to be very annoying! I don't want to waste my time being interviewed by HER!" shouted Li. Sakura's face turned red. She was fuming.
"I do not wish to tolerate with such selfish person either, MR. Li. But I am only forced to interview you so I could keep my job. I already know where you live, from all the people that are talking about you, so you can expect me to be at your house Tuesday afternoon at around 2 o'clock," fumed Sakura. Then, she turned to Yelan and smiled, "Get better soon! I'll visit you after my interview. Bye-bye!" and with that arranged, she walked out the door, leaving Syaoran gaping at her boldness.
"Well...she is a very determined one isn't she? Indeed, a very sweet person. Seems like you were the rude one. She DID save my life, and you didn't even thank her," said Yelan.
"But mother! She just wants to get closer to us because of our wealth and fame. I hate those kinds of people. Therefore, I will not meet her on Tuesday," decided Syaoran. Yelan just shook her head and smiled. Tuesday was going to be another one of those days.
##################
Tuesday afternoon:
Before Sakura could even ring the doorbell, an old man that she guessed was the butler, opened the door and allowed her in. She took one look at her the inside of the mansion and almost fainted from all the luxury. Crystal chandeliers dangled everywhere. Priceless vases were displayed everywhere she looked. She was still looking around the room when she heard the butler say, "Miss? Miss? Are you all right? Is something wrong?"
"No! Nothing's wrong. I...I...this house is...very nice," stammered Sakura. She felt like an idiot, standing there, gaping at everything like she's never seen such luxury before. Well, truth be told, she never have seen such luxury.
"Well then, let me introduce myself. I am Wei, the Butler. Yelan has already given strict orders on where to bring you when you arrive. She has gone to see the doctor for another body checkup. Just to make sure. Madam, please come this way," Wei led Sakura up the marble stairs and into a large living room, with green carpeting. Wei gestured to one of the leather sofas and told her to wait while he went to get Mister Li. Sakura sat down and glanced around the room. There were bookshelves filled with books. But, overall, the room seemed kind of undecorated compared to what she had just seen downstairs.
##################
"Master Li! Miss Kinomoto has arrived. She is awaiting you in your own living room," called Wei. Syaoran pretended not to hear.
"Master Li! If you don't go and meet Miss Kinomoto, I'll have Yelan come and fetch you herself," threatened Wei. Syaoran glared at him. But it seemed that Syaoran's death glares never worked on Wei. Finally, Syaoran sighed and gave in. 'Mother only wanted me to get interviewed, but who said I HAD to cooperate? I'll make her job harder for her. She won't ever dare come back again after the interview. I'll make sure of that,' thought Syaoran, evilly. He strolled to his living room, taking his time. He walked so slow that it took him 10 minutes to get to his living room, which is only diagonally across from his bedroom.
By the time Syaoran reached his living room, Sakura had already picked a book off a nearby shelf and started reading. She was so caught in the book that she didn't even notice Syaoran entering the room.
"What are you doing?!" shouted Syaoran angrily. No one ever dared touch his precious books. They were the only thing that his father left him, besides the Martial Arts Center, and this mansion.
Sakura looked up, startled. Her emerald eyes searched Syaoran's amber eyes, as if asking for an explanation on why he was so angry.
"What am I doing? What does it look like? I'm reading of course! Silly," spoke Sakura, calmly. Syaoran's cheeks were turning red, and his eyes flashed dangerously. However, Sakura failed to notice this.
In one quick movement, Syaoran snatched the book out of Sakura's hands and held it by his side. Sakura looked up at him, as if nothing happened. 'This STUPID girl seems so innocent! But she's not! She can't fool me! She's just trying to be calm so I'd like her!' thought Syaoran, furiously.
"Okay. For the interview I need to take some pictures, and ask you a few questions," started Sakura. But Syaoran cut her off.
"PICTURES? YOU WANT ME TO TAKE PICTURES FOR YOU? ARE YOU CRAZY? I HATE TAKING PICTURES AND HAVING THEM POSTED UP IN MAGAZINES!" yelled Syaoran. He was so angry. 'Who did SHE think she was?! Bossing me around. Pictures? As if!'
"Yes, pictures. No, I'm not crazy. I don't really care if you absolutely adore taking pictures, or absolutely loathe it," answered Sakura simply.
"Fine. Take your damn pictures," Syaoran definitely had something up his sleeve. Sakura started to walk towards the door.
"Hey! Where are you going? You're leaving?! That's GREAT!" Syaoran said sarcastically. Sakura turned to look at him. She did have great eyes, Syaoran had to admit.
"No, we're going somewhere else to take pictures. Do you really think that this is a good place to take pictures?" asked Sakura. 'He sure is one dumb cluck,'
Syaoran looked around the pretty empty room and shook his head. He followed her outside. When they were downstairs, Sakura asked, "Where's the garden?" Syaoran pointed to the French door to his left. He hadn't utter one single solitary word since he came downstairs. He only followed Sakura when she past the French doors into the garden. She gasped in admiration. Syaoran rolled his eyes behind her.
"This is the perfect place to take the pictures. Stand right under those neatly trimmed trees. They're gorgeous!" instructed Sakura. Syaoran obediently did what he was told. 'Weird, he usually doesn't do anything without a fight,' thought Sakura.
However, the trouble started when Sakura said, "Cheese!" Syaoran suddenly clapped his hand in front of his face. Too late, Sakura already clicked the camera.
"Li! What were you doing? Why'd you clap?" asked Sakura.
"A bee was in my eye," he answered. Sakura sighed and told him to sit on one of the benches, near the trees. He did so. But the same thing happened again. And again. No matter where he stood, the imaginary bee was always following him. Syaoran was trying to annoy her.
Sakura looked around, frustrated. Suddenly, a magnificent water fountain caught her eye. It was in the middle of the grassy field, and large enough for...
Sakura grinned. "Li, I'd like a snapshot of you standing on the rim of the water fountain. I'm going to take the picture from the back. It'll be more unique," said Sakura. Syaoran stared at Sakura queerly, then shrugged. 'Where does she get these wild ideas? Taking a snapshot of my back? Well, I suppose the water fountain is pretty,"
Syaoran stood erect on the rim of the fountain. He would wait for her to say 'cheese', which she always did before she took the picture, then he would turn around to mess up her snapshot.
"Okay. One, two, three, CHEESE!" shouted Sakura. Sakura started running towards Syaoran's back when he suddenly turned around. Sakura was going too fast to stop.
Syaoran's eyes widened when he saw her running towards him. He lost his balance when Sakura ran into him. Syaoran's first instinct was to grab something to lift him back up. The first thing that his hand came in contact with was Sakura's hand. So Syaoran grabbed her hand and pulled her in with him.
After about 10 seconds, they both came sputtering up.
"YOU LITTLE BRAT! YOU GOT ME ALL WET! WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM? DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO RESPECT OTHERS?" shouted Syaoran as loud as he could.
"Number one: You calling me a brat is already disrespectful. Number two: YOU were the one who pulled me in! Number three: I'm a guest here. I should be the one getting all the respect, not YOU!" retorted Sakura. Before Syaoran could reply, Wei came running out of the French doors.
"Mister Li! Miss Kinomoto! What in the world happened? I heard all the commotion from..." Wei didn't get a chance to complete what he was saying. He was cut off when he saw them both standing in the fountain, shivering from head to toe despite the warm weather.
"JUST GET ME A FRICKEN TOWEL AND SOME DRY CLOTHES TO CHANGE INTO! THIS MISSY HERE GOT ME ALL WET!" complained Syaoran. Wei rushed back into the house and came back out with dry towels in 3 minutes flat.

Sakura drying herself up in the guest room:
Sakura was led into the guest room to dry herself up. The guest room was huge! The carpet was a soft pink, and the walls were painted light lavender. She smiled as she sank into the silky, queen-sized bed. She thought about today and realized with urgency that she still hadn't completed her interview. She groaned when she realized she would have to arrange another interview with that basta...with that kid. A knock on the door interrupted her gloomy thoughts.
"Come in!" shouted Sakura. Yelan came in, and closed the door behind her.
"Well, how are you feeling now, Sakura?" asked Yelan. Sakura shifted uncomfortably. 'Did she want me out of her house as soon as possible?' pondered Sakura.
"I'm...fine. These clothes are really nice," commented Sakura. She was given a creamy white top with a spaghetti strap. It clung to her every curve, and it looked gorgeous on her. She wore a black jean that was wide at the bottom. It fit her perfectly.
"These are my nieces' clothing. Her name's Mei Lin. She should be home some time soon. I'll introduce her to you. Why don't you stay over for dinner?" invited Yelan.
"Oh no! I can't! I've already bothered you so much today!" cried Sakura. Yelan just smiled warmly at her and said in a soothing voice, "Don't you worry! I've always wanted a daughter just like you. I had four daughters, but they died at a very early age. Syaoran was very sad that his sisters died. He blamed it all on himself. And just half a year ago, my husband died. That is part of the reason why Syaoran is so...rude. Please don't blame him," explained Yelan. It took a minute or two for Sakura to digest all this information.
"I'm sorry. I had no idea..." Sakura managed to choke out. She was startled at the sudden piece of information. Yelan just smiled and said that it was ok, although her eyes reflected a different feeling.
"Now, let's go downstairs for dinner, unless you're still blaming Syaoran for what he did earlier," said Yelan. Sakura's eyes grew wide and she stuttered, "NO! Of course not! It's just that I..." she trailed off.
"Well good! Since you're not blaming him, then I don't see what's wrong with going down for dinner!" Yelan turned around and headed down the stairs. Sakura sighed and reluctantly followed her.
##################
At dinner:
Throughout dinner, Sakura noticed Syaoran staring at her. But when Sakura looked up at him, Syaoran would just shoot daggers at her, and look away. Other then that, dinner was perfect. Yelan and Sakura chatted about many things. The only people eating dinner were Syaoran, Yelan, and Sakura. There were some servants loitering about the dining room, serving them. The dinner itself wasn't feisty, but pleasant enough. 'This family needs more excitement in this house,' thought Sakura. As if reading her mind, Yelan said, "There are usually two more people eating dinner with us. One is Eriol Hiirigizawa, and the other is Mei Lin, as I have mentioned earlier. They are both busy tonight, but they should be coming home soon,"
"Oh. I see. Well, umm...Thanks for the dinner. I enjoyed it a lot. But I have to go home now," thanked Sakura. Yelan nodded, trying to hide her disappointment. Sakura got up to go, but she suddenly remembered something.
"OH! And since our interview...was interrupted by some...accidents...I'll have to come back tomorrow," declared Sakura. She could see out of the corner of her eye that Syaoran was groaning, and rolling his eyes at her like a cow. Yelan, however, smiled and replied, "Sure! Come back anytime, Sakura. I'll be looking forward to your next visit,"
With that said, Sakura walked out the door and into the chilly night.
##################
"Wow! You actually bumped into Yelan AND SAVED HER LIFE? That's INCREDIBLE! I WISH I WAS THERE TO TAPE IT!" screamed Tomoyo, into the phone. Sakura remember that her ears ached weeks after that phone call.
"Yeah. But unfortunately I have to go back there again tomorrow," sighed Sakura. She was lying down on her soft bed with Kero (Sakura's cat) curled up at the foot of her bed. She stared at her light blue ceiling and replayed her visit to the Li Mansion.
"Why?" asked Tomoyo. After explaining what happened, Sakura told her friend that she had to go to bed, and hung up.
After changing into her Blue Bear pajamas, she crawled into her bed. After some time, she tossed and turned, but she couldn't get to sleep. Thinking back, she almost chuckled at Syaoran's outrageous faces whenever she tried to take his picture. Then, realizing that she was thinking about him, she mentally slapped herself. Soon afterward, she fell into an uneasy sleep.
