The first time Song Yinyou saw Leng Feiyu, she was wearing a dark green gown that swept the floor. The black stilettos, glittering with gold studs and diamonds, clicked softly against the ground. She wasn't some seductive temptress amid a glittering, hedonistic world. Her features were striking and cool, exuding an air of nobility. Song Yinyou initially thought she must be the heiress of some Hong Kong tycoon, but during their conversation, she learned that Leng Feiyu's elegance had nothing to do with her background. Three years earlier, the Chinese-Russian woman had come to Hong Kong alone, built this now-dominant film company, and established several other businesses in private. She had become the only female CEO on the local rich list.
As she passed by, her dark purple ring brushed against the shoulder veil of Song Yinyou's custom iris-patterned gown. She said, "Long time no see, Miss Yinyou."
The sunset that day was full of light and shadow. Tiny raindrops hung in the breeze, and clouds filled the sky with color. Watching her walk away, Song Yinyou's heart pounded, and her ears rang. Love was a winding, aching journey, a desperate leap into the flames. Under the spotlight, she gave her a jade feather carved with golden patterns and said, "Jade feathers are rare in this world. Can you understand what I feel for you?"
She kept that mandarin-duck jade feather, a symbol of love intertwined, for three years. The coolness of the jade and the warmth of the green stone were just like the dusk in the City of Flowers where they first met three years ago.
"Miss Yinyou, you are a passing traveler who brushes against Victoria Harbour, while I am the ridiculous snowboat waiting beneath the covered walkway, longing to carry you home."
"From the brief moment our eyes met on the day we first met, I have treasured the North Star reflected in my eyes, forever shining beneath the night sky."
