"Miss, can I?"
She looked at the thirty yellow name tags in the YY chat room until her eyes went blurry. Every man who joined started talking, all chattering away in every accent under the sun. It was so loud her ears hurt. She quietly turned down her headset volume, yet in the midst of all that noise, she heard him and no one else.
"Who was that? Who just asked if he could?"
He froze in front of his computer, then realized she was asking him and couldn't help smiling.
"That was me, right, Miss?"
"Yes, you."
Later, whenever she thought back to this moment, she couldn't help feeling it was just like an ancient emperor choosing a concubine...
The setting sun behind her shone on her back. Li Xiang lowered her head to look at the vase in her hands, lost in thought. Remembering the first time she heard his voice five years ago, she let out another sigh.
There will always be someone who crosses mountains and seas to love you.
