Double-flowered Cherry Blossom

  The crowd immediately surrounded him and asked: "Mr. Yi, has your leg injury healed?"

  "Mr. Yi, today is a charity auction for poor children, what treasure did Mr. Yi bring out to auction?"

  "Mr. Yi, I heard you were horseback riding with Miss Du Bingbing when you got injured?"

  "Mr. Yi, is it true what Cheng Yuling said about your close relationship with her?"

  Many reporters rushed over, but the organizer's bodyguards were also numerous and quickly surrounded them to block them out. An Lan lowered her head and pushed Yi Tianze to follow the hostess to the so-called VIP seat.

  Just as they sat down, An Lan hadn't even had time to ask Yi Tianze if he wanted water when another commotion came from the entrance of the hall, this time even more intense than when Yi Tianze arrived.

  An Lan almost instinctively turned around, only to find that it was actually Yi Shui Han and Ling Yu Wei who had arrived, surrounded by the entertainment reporters, who were asking them questions about the secrets they most wanted to know.

  The VIP seat was quite far from the entrance, and the questions raised by the audience were very confusing. An Lan didn't hear clearly what kind of questions they were, let alone what answers Yi Shuihan and Ling Yuwei gave.

  Just as An Lan turned her head, a high-pitched questioning voice suddenly came from the doorway and fell directly into her ears.

  "Mr. Yi, may I ask when you and Miss Ling plan to get engaged?"

  As the high-pitched voice fell, the originally noisy entrance of the grand hall suddenly quieted down. Everyone's gaze was like a spotlight on Yishuihan, all holding their breath waiting for his response.

  Yi Shui Han's face showed a moment of astonishment, followed by a smile. She glanced sideways at Ling Yu Wei and asked gently, "Yu Wei, what's the date of our engagement?"

  "Look at your memory, isn't it May 20th?" Ling Yuwei's face was full of shyness, accompanied by a coquettish tone and a flirtatious expression.

  May 20th? The entertainment reporters, whose brains react faster than computers, cheered immediately. Who doesn't know that 520 means "I love you"?

  An Lan was stunned when he heard that day, how come it's so coincidental, he chose the day to get engaged with another woman on that day?

  Is it unintentional? Or is it an unconscious inability to forget?

  Six years ago, on May 20th, the warm sunset slowly faded away in the evening. She planted a small cherry blossom tree she brought back from Edward Park in her rented courtyard.

  At that time, he helped to water and smiled and asked: "Is this a single-petaled cherry blossom or a double-petaled cherry blossom?"

  She used her hand to straighten up the small cherry blossom tree, slightly tilted her head and looked at him with a mysterious smile: "Guess!"

  "I'm sure it's single-petaled," he 'accidentally' splashed water on her.

  "Why?" She dodged a little slower, and her chest was wet with a big patch. She couldn't help but glare at him: "Can't you be more careful?"

  He smiled and came over to pull her hand towards the house: "Your clothes are wet, you need to change quickly, or you'll catch a cold."

  It was still spring in Toronto in May, and that day happened to be sunny, so she only wore a thin long-sleeved spring shirt. The front of her clothes was wet with a big patch, which inevitably made her figure show through.

  That night, he helped her change clothes, that night —

  She bloomed under him like a cherry blossom!

  Much later, she finally understood that single-petaled cherry blossoms bloom and bear fruit, while double-petaled cherry blossoms only bloom but do not bear fruit.

  And she was so unlucky, the cherry blossom tree that came back from Edward Park actually bloomed with double-petaled flowers!
