I'm so proud of myself:P
Ru Ying Sui Xing – Chapter 7 – Peach Garden pt 1 – Moments in life
I fell on my butt after I had lost my grip. Oh well. Was four feet a high length?
Hearing the thump, Dai Xian rushed outside. She was about to scream.
"Shhhh!" I whispered. I got up to her and whispered, "I'm meeting Liang tonight! Please, disguise yourself as I and cover for me!"
Dai Xian nodded and said, "Yes my Lady. What's with the hat though?"
"What, this?" I said taking it off. "Don't worry! It's Liang's hat I have to give this back to him."
I frantically looked for the Peach Garden. I forgot the way! Was this path it? It was covered with vines and plants. Probably, but knowing my luck, this is a wrong way. So something told me to go in the opposite direction, and there he was. Was I skilled, or lucky?
Zhuge Liang chucked when he saw his hat on my head. I realized that he was holding his feather fan in his right hand.
"Are you feeling green, Miss Huang?" he asked, noticing everything I wore was completely green. All except for my golden headdress.
I smiled, and put his hat back on his head. "Come on Liang." We liked arms and walked into the Peach Gardens again. We continued walking until we had reached a humongous Peach Tree.
"Here we are," he said. "This is the tree."
I looked up, still right next to Liang. "Wow. But what is the significance of this tree, Liang?"
He chuckled and sat down, laying on the side of the tree. "I'm not going to tell you yet, Miss Huang. Come."
So I sat practically on him, my head leaning on his chest. I could feel him breathing over my head, and for once in my life, I didn't mind.
"This tree reminds me of something," I said. "It looks like the tree I saw when I was passing through a farm. A huge, big Peach Tree."
"Mm...You were probably passing through my farm then. I had a tree put there that looked almost identical to this one."
"Why was that?"
"That's the surprise. I'm not going to tell you know my lady."
I shook my head. "Stop calling me that. Call me 'Ying' for once."
"No, I explained it before Miss Huang."
I remember word for word what he said. I stopped looking at him that way and faced him directly. "Then I order you to. Call me Ying or Lord Lady Huang. Your choice."
He sighed and gazed over at me. "Understood." He took my hands. "Lord Lady Huang."
I punched him playfully in the stomach. "Fine the, if that's how you want to play. Call me 'Ying'. Simple enough for your straightforward mind, Liang?"
Liang chuckled again. "Of course, my sweet Ying."
There was an obvious warm feeling within the sentence he had just said. I didn't really understand what was happening; we were in front of each other, talking about random things when I felt myself inch closer and closer to Liang...like a magnet. What was the big picture here?
Before anything happened, a branch fell on top of Liang and I. I giggled when I saw flower petals all over him, and on his nose. "Oh sure!" he said, "Laugh at me!" The petal fell off his nose.
I started laughing uncontrollably and t hen he threw a flower and part of the branch at me. It got in my hair!
He laughed. Boy, did I deserve this!
I gasped and threw a flower back at him. He easily caught it and placed it so that it was stuck between his waist and his belt. Liang then took the branch that fell on him and removed another flower and threw it at me.
I was able to steal that one, but it went up my sleeve somehow and got caught up in my shirt. I was dancing for so long until I was able to remove the flower. When I did, I turned to Liang who was just smiling there, hiding his mouth under his white feather fan.
I gasped and threw a pebble at him, and it had one of the most vulnerable parts of him. I am really the smartest person of all time, no? Thank god it was only a pebble!
Liang sank to the floor. I rushed over to him and helped him back up. "Forgive me," I said. But of course, he was a very sneaky and strategic person and he tripped me with his foot and then caught me right before I hit the ground. "This is what I like about myself," he said. I scoffed and pushed him, causing me to fall on the floor with double – or triple the energy I had used.
Liang helped me back up; I turned red when he started brushing off leaves and petals off my body at the worst most possible places on me.
We laid back on the tree again the same way we were before I had turned to him. Just staying there, breathing in the night air with him was so relaxing and so romantic.
He ran his fingers through my hair, and that was when I arched my head and looked at him I realized that his hair was longer, darker and smoother than mine.
"Why is your hair so long, Liang?"
"I like it that way. I think it looks cute, don't you?"
I blushed and nodded. Wouldn't you if the love of your life said, "like", "cute", and "you" in the same sentence?
He looked over at me, smiling again. This time, he kissed my forehead and my heart skipped a beat. I turned my head normally again on Liang's chest and took a deep breath of the night air.
