So I finally update. GOMEN NE! I've got so much excuses for not updating which includes friendship issues, friends going haywire, family issues, primary school died in an accident, school pressure and lots more which you probably don't want to hear. But I'm really sorry I haven't been updating. Just, lots of things been happening in my life that's been stopping me and pushed down my motivation to update any of my stories or even write anything… But most importantly I guess is, I've UPDATED! Hope you'll enjoy this chapter, I rather enjoyed editing it :)

Dedication: I'll actually like to dedicate this chapter to Shadow Of A Good Girl who went and bothered to PM me to tell me, quoted from her msg, "to get my backside into gear" haha… Thanks girl, that kick in the ass told me that I really should be updating again! It's just not fair to people that wants to read! Don't get me wrong though, I still love all you other encouraging amazing reviewers just as much! But she went all the way to tell me so… just shows me how much she actually loves my story! THANKS SO MUCH! MWAS!
Disclaimer: I don't own CCS in anyway or form, unfortunately I don't really own the plot line either… it belongs to whoever wrote hana yori dango, or boys over flowers… or even meteor garden whatever you wanna call it! Their creators are amazing!
Chapter 36: Happiness, The Love Traumas"I'm being rather generous," said Yelan smiling at Touya and Sakura's shocked faces. "Being the mother as I said before, I have to clear out any bits and pieces, any unnecessary plants and 'flowers' amongst my young son's path."
So I'm part of bits and piece am I! She thought angrily, glaring at Yelan. And you're trying to get rid of me with MONEY!
"What do you think?" said Yelan gesturing at the money. "Do you really think he loves you? He just likes playing around like he always does. The best he can do is give you more money, so why not take the best of it now?"
Sakura couldn't believe her ears. She wondered how an elegant woman like Yelan Li could be so cold hearted. She stood up in fury but Touya pushed her down.
"Could you give me a minute?" said Touya with a charming smile. He stood up and went to the kitchen.
Sakura looked at him curiously as he walked into the kitchen.
"Touya what are you doing?" she called. "Touya?"
Touya came back with a small tub of white powdery grains which seems to be sugar. He went behind Yelan who had no idea he was there and poured the contents directly on her head. Sakura gave a large gasped. Simon leapt up and grabbed Touya on the arm.
"What do you think you're doing!" snapped Simon.
Sakura stood up also and took Touya's arm from Simon.
"TOUYA!" she exclaimed wide eyed.
Simon knelt down and took out a handkerchief and tried to clean Yelan's hair but she put up an arm for him to stop.
"What kinda person are you!" shouted Touya. "Sakura isn't my daughter or my son but she is my little sister. Right now my little sister is being threatened! Just because we're not rich like you, it doesn't mean we would trade money for love!"
Yelan who still had sugar all over her head nodded, not looking at any of them. She was angry. Her face show no emotion but her eyes were heated and strained.
"I understand," she stated coldly. "So you don't want the money?"
"NO!" yelled Touya still with Sakura leeching off his arm, scared he would do anything else rash.
"Very well. We shall leave now Simon."
Yelan got up and went out of the living room to the door. Simon packed up the suitcase and just before living the room, he turned and bowed and went after Yelan. Sakura continued to be shocked in the small silence he and her brother was left with. She then smiled broadly up at her tall onii-chan.
"Oh my gosh Touya! I can't believe you just did that! I feel so proud of you!" Sakura exclaimed jumping up and down, hugging him.
Touya smiled sheepishly at his sister and returned the light hug.
"Of course I won't take that little money! How can I be so stupid!"
Sakura stopped smiling.
"NANI!" she shouted.
"I mean, I don't just want that! I want the whole Li family's fortune! So you and Syaoran Li better get along very well! Then you can get that bitch so angry that she gets high blood pressure and die or something, afterwards all the money will go to her son and if you marry him it'll go to you as well!" smiled Touya imagining all that.
"Touya! How can you say that!" said Sakura angrily in disbelief.
"What so bad about it?"
"I thought you were the greatest brother in the whole world just then! But now! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" squealed Sakura. "You make me so mad!"
With that she stomped up the stairs as Touya chuckled. He looked at his cute little sister stomp up the stairs muttering.
Who cares about money… If you can have happiness kajuu… That's all that matters, he thought with a sad smile.123123123123123123123123123123123123123123123123123
Clow 4 and Ann sat in a French café eating lunch. Syaoran STILL had the white box with him and held one cookie. Eriol and Hiro who just heard about the cookies were already sick of him talking about it. Shingo showed no expression but ate. Ann was the same though she was the only person that smiled at Syaoran's comments.
"It looks like my angry face," said Syaoran examining the cookie.
"It's a cookie," said Eriol rolling his eyes. "If it's such an amazing cookie why don't you put it in a museum or something! It can say on the label thing 'Dedication to Syaoran Li's many love traumas.'"
"Hey, that IS a thought!" said Syaoran with a grin.
Hiro gave a laugh and shook his head.
"You're on a high today Xiao Lang," he said.
"He's been like this since morning at my place," said Shingo giving a chuckle.
"He looks for you early in the morning for his bragging needs," said Ann putting cucumber into her mouth.
"He always look for you first when… like he wants you to be jealous of him," laughing Hiro waving his fork. "It's no fair you know! It's like he only wants to impress you!"
Shingo chuckled again and went back to his eating.
"Did I ask for you opinion Hiro!" snapped Syaoran.
At that moment Ann's phone rang she picked it up without looking at the screen.
"Hello?"
Pause then her face grew annoyed.
"What do you want? I don't care. Can't you get it, you have a girlfriend don't you? Then you know it was a fling, one night stand thing right? Ja then!"
Ann hanged up and put the phone back onto the table. She continued eating. Clow 4 looked at her shocked and curious. It rang again. She grabbed it.
"WHAT? NO. GET LOST."
She slammed it down again. It immediately rang again. She rolled her eyes and picked it up. She didn't answer it though.
She switched it off.
"I'm getting a new sim card which means a new number," she declared and went back to her eating.
"Who, was that?" asked Eriol looking at his sister.
"No one important," said Ann expressionless not looking at him.
"No one important? What does that mean?" exclaimed Eriol. He was beginning to get worried for her.
Ann sighed. He really have to make her explain.
"He's one of them I played around with OK? But he's just a bit attached then the usual," said Ann. "Don't ask about it. I don't ask you about your stuff you don't ask about mine." Eriol winced at that.
"Fair enough," he sighed.
"I wonder how she made the chocolate as my eyebrows?" said Syaoran, continuing his sticky gaze at his beloved cookie.
Everyone looked at him and sweat dropped.
"He's so happy he's forgotten that he has a mom on the loose that wants to break the sweet couple up," said Eriol to Hiro. "Since you're so happy, you must have been very sweet and romantic with Sakura last night ne?"
Shingo looked up still smiling knowing what Eriol meant.
"Cherry to popped cherry?" said Hiro lowering he's voice giving an evil grin to Syaoran.
"What cherry pop, we were so hungry last night," said Syaoran rather thick in the head, totally lost.
"Don't change the topic baka," said Eriol.
"Nani?" said Syaoran.
"As in meaning, did you two, last night, you know!" said Hiro with wide eyes and waving fork.
Syaoran looked at him for a moment then red spots of colours appeared in his cheeks.
"Would you guys stop being so damn nosy!" he stammered.
Eriol and Hiro laughed. Shingo smiled broadly. Ann giggled and tried to not catch Syaoran's eye or she'd burst out laughing.
"Yesterday night you two just rushed out like that, then she gives you cookies that she made all by herself and you STILL can't take care of it! Honestly, are you a MAN?" exclaimed Eriol, chuckling.
Hiro laughed.
"How old are you! You're still a virgin man! It was such a great chance! You're making Clow 4 go down. Shingo has remember? Even Ann's—"
Ann glared at Hiro and he gulped.
"Ann's done it I know that. She doesn't tell us but we all know," said Syaoran. Ann ignored the comment and stabbed at her chicken. Stabbed at it HARD. "By the way, Syaoran Li doesn't like taking these things too fast unlike some certain people."
"Hey! Speak more nicely of us would you? Every single one of our girlfriends was willing! Not like we forced them! We'd never," said Hiro in defence.
"By YOUR instincts. Even when Sakura wanted too you wouldn't even have realised it," said Eriol coming back at him.
"Don't you remember the face that your mother gave Sakura?" said Hiro a little sterner now.
"It's my life. No one is going to direct it," said Syaoran firmly.
"That's why I said you can't just stay at the same spot all the time with Sakura! Get a move on!" said Eriol.
"You're just so innocent sometimes! How can you beat your own mother?" said Hiro.
Syaoran looked down still holding his fork then looked up at Ann.
"What do you think Ann? From a female perspective?" he asked.
"Auntie Yelan isn't called the empress for nothing Xiao Lang. I think she'll even be more mad then my parents would be if she find out I'm not a virgin anymore. She'll probably think I'm dirt and want to scrub me off. So, what do you think I think?"
"That if I stay with Sakura, my mother is going to kill me," said Syaoran. He turned to Shingo. "Shingo how about you?"
Shingo looked up and weakly smiled at Syaoran.
"I just hope you can protect Sakura," said Shingo.
No one's words were much of help. But Shingo's last advice left Syaoran thoughtful…

Sakura and Tomoyo were at work once again. Sakura explained the full story to Tomoyo as Tomoyo stared at her wide-eyed, in shock, in awe in everything.
"A million dollars! Syaoran's okaa-san went to your house to ask you to give up Syaoran with one million dollars!" exclaimed Tomoyo. "Did you take it?"
"NO! Do you think I'm that kind of person!" exclaimed Sakura.
"Then that means you're still going to date Syaoran? That's going to make his okaa-san fume!"
"Course it'll make her fume. But me not taking the money doesn't mean I'm going to date Syaoran. I don't want a person like HER as MY mother in law!"
They were both eating some left over cake. Tomoyo swallowed and nearly choked.
"Mother in law? I didn't say you were going to marry Syaoran," said Tomoyo raising her eyebrows at her.
"Oh yeah, I was just, I didn't mean that it was just that I'm too far away from them we're two worlds… OH! I don't' even know what I'M talking about!" exclaimed Sakura rubbing her temples.
The customer bell rang and a familiar guy in a black suit walked through the door. Sakura looked at him. He looked back.
"Miss Sakura, Mistress Yelan has sent me. Please look at this invitation," Simon said and handed it to Sakura politely with two hands.
Sakura read through the invitation quickly then looked at Simon again.
"Can you come with me?" he asked.
"Already?" said Sakura confused.
Sakura looked at Tomoyo. Tomoyo smiled and nodded.
Syaoran
Syaoran was on his way home when he was confronted by two guys nearly double his size. He looked at them when they stood before him, blocking his way. They were macho men.
"Master Li, please come with us," said one.
"Aren't you guys the empress's people?" said Syaoran looking at them.
"That is why you must come with us," said the other one.
"Do I look like I'm going to come with you?" snapped Syaoran glaring at them and continued to walk forward.
"Master Li we are truly sorry," they both said and grabbed his arms with a steel grip.
"HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING! HEY!" yelled Syaoran as they dragged him towards a black limo.
Sakura
Sakura was so nervous as she was brought up marble stairs of a fancy chinese restaurant. She didn't even have time to get changed out of her cake shop uniform. She was led into a private dining room where she immediately saw Yelan sitting at the table with Syaoran in a business suit next to her. Two bodyguards stood sturdily at the back of his chair, guarding him. When Syaoran saw Sakura he got up but was immediately pushed back on the chair by the two bodyguards. Sakura was freaked, she felt scared to be here but yet worried about Syaoran.
"Our guests have not yet arrived?" asked Yelan to Simon.
Simon bowed and shook his head.
"I got their phone call a few minutes ago. They say they're on their way," said Simon.
Syaoran tries to stand again but got pushed down again.
"What are you trying to do!" he shouted at his mother. "Why is Sakura here as well!"
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a girl with raven black hair slick straight, crimson eyes in a bright red formal dress was ushered into the room by a bodyguard. She held high heels in her hands struggling from the grip he had on her. She was yelling loudly.
"What's going on! Why are you putting me into these clothes! LET ME GO! I'll throw my heel at you if you hurt me!" she yelled.
She stopped yelling as she realised there were people staring at her in the room. Sakura eyed the girl who was standing next to her at the door wondering who the hell she was.
"Who are you people!" snapped the girl rudely, pissed yet confused at why she was at this place.
Yelan stood up and smiled.
"Miss Meling, Xiao Lang, she is your fiancée."
