"Mian~ Who do you like between the two?"

Feng Mian considered Shi Bai's question seriously. "Fei Long is easier to get along. Dean, I want to kill."

Shi Bai giggled, her phoenix eyes narrowing into slits.

"I ship you two too~~ So I accepted the engagement with Fei Long~"

Feng Mian was stunned. "Engagement?"

Shi Bai bobbed her head, causing her smooth hair to create beautiful waves.

"His father intended to marry him off to some rich heiress, so I thought I should step up to save him! Don't worry, I completely don't like him in that way despite how attractive he is. I totally ship you~ <3"

"I see..."

Shi Bai curiously peeked into Feng Mian's frost-cold eyes as her smile deepened.

"You should take a step out of your comfort zone sometimes, Mian~ I guarantee you won't regret!"

Shi Bai continued saying in her sing-song voice while trying to balance her steps on a pedestal of a certain strange statue in this isolated area.

"It never works in my favour." Feng Mian blankly said.

Shi Bai stopped playing around, jumping down onto the stable ground and leisurely strode opposite of Feng Mian. Her green eyes were beautiful and bright.

When Shi Bai lifted her hand to gently press it on Feng Mian's chest, the latter stiffly stepped back, leaving Shi Bai's hand hanging in the air. But she did not mind and merely smiled.

"You are just trying to escape, Mian~ And you would be better off facing what you fear the most."

"How can you know what I fear?"

Shi Bai smiled mysteriously. "Did you know, you look relaxed with a certain someone around. But why do you think you never bother beyond the current situation?"

Before Feng Mian could formulate an answer, Shi Bai continued.

"You are afraid. It can only either be that you are afraid to trust your heart with someone or you have been deeply wounded before, .... or simply both."

"...You sound so sure.." Feng Mian said, but she mentally agreed with Shi Bai's analysis.

She was indeed afraid of trusting people too deeply, because she would begin to grow some expectations. Expectations that the previous people in her life failed excellently, leaving her with so many issues, including trust issues.

Shi Bai stuck her tongue out. "That's how I see it~!"

"You are awfully good at reading people."

"So do you, Mian~!"

"Is there anyway to break your engagement with Fei Long?"

Shi Bai almost squealed to the point of heart attack. She really loves the Feng Mian x Fei Long ship!! And obviously, Feng Mian has more guts than Fei Long, making it MiNg!!

She was daydreaming so much that she had almost forgotten about Feng Mian, who looked even more thoughtful than before.

She coughed away her excitement as she gently advised, "Simple! With my help, Fei Long will be free."

"So you are going to help?" Feng Mian reaffirmed, not quite sure what she was getting herself into.

Shi Bai giggled. "Of course, Mian~ That's what I am here for! For now, let us go find Fei Long and tell him you are fine with him being gay~"

"...O-okay." Feng Mian was not sure but she felt she should do that too, briefly remembering Fei Long's depressed face that did not suit him.

Feng Mian meekly followed after Shi Bai back to Buna Kafe where Fei Long and Dean were still sitting at the same table.

When both men saw Feng Mian, their eyes brightened, eliciting internal squealing in Shi Bai.

"Fei Long. I need to talk to you..." Feng Mian then glared at Dean before continuing, "In private."

Dean miserably stayed while Shi Bai kindly sat where Fei Long was, silently staring at Dean.

Fei Long followed after Feng Mian up in the 2nd floor of the cafe, where Feng Mian has her private room.

Once they were seated, Feng Mian calmly said, "I am fine with you being rotten."

Fei Long's heart suddenly stopped, then it started beating profusely. For some reason, his throat was suddenly parched. "...T-then..."

"But I am not rotten... Maybe..." She reluctantly said, shifting her gaze towards a particular painting in the room. It was of a lonely man sailing towards the sunset. He looked lonely, but the painting was beautiful.

Fei Long's hand, however, was slowly crawling towards Feng Mian's hand. Once he reached her's, he gently covered it with his own, exchanging each other's warmth. Only then was he able to slightly reign his nervousness.

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

Feng Mian turned to look at him, feeling slightly perplexed. She didn't exactly dislike being taken advantaged by Fei Long, which was a big contrast to what she felt for Dean. Did this mean she was fine with Fei Long? Or would she be making a big mistake?

All her thoughts however, vanished into thin air when her frost-cold eyes met his electric blue. Her throat hitched as her heartbeat suddenly sped up, her mind fascinated and she was simply left gazing at the attractive human being before her. She couldn't believe the warmth that spread from within her heart as she continued to gaze upon Fei Long's face and his eyes that tagged at her heartstrings.

His electric blue eyes spoke it all. The trust, love and longing he has for her. These emotions were not foreign to her. In fact, the same feelings were buried deep within her heart.

Has she unknowingly let Fei Long thaw her frozen heart? When did she let him in? And for how long has she been treating him differently?

She then softly confessed. "I seem to have feelings for you too, Fei Long."

Although it was sudden, it didn't seem like it. Although she was perplexed, she was fine feeling so. She was willing to gamble her heart, wherever Fei Long may lead it.

He was not exactly what one would call a big boss, but rather a teddy bear who looked like a carnivore but actually all just cottons inside. Feng Mian noticed this over the times they spent together. Even the first time she heard his voice on the other side of the door, when she was locked in a storage room.

He could have done more to Ying Yue, but he didn't. He was a soft-hearted man over a blanket of facade. When he followed Feng Mian's suggestion to fire all the ladies who kept disrupting their work, he actually sent them somewhere far away, but they still had a job.

He was always lonely, craving for someone to see through his rigidity. Anger became his outlet of getting out of situations. Indifference was his protection for his wounded heart. But whenever he was with Feng Mian, his anger turns to bubbles, keeping him grounded.

He did not know there was a person that could bring him peace.

While on the other hand, he brought normalcy to her dark world.

Fei Long was stunned, merely engrossed in Feng Mian's enlightened expression.

Looking into her eyes, he also saw something new that he had never seen before. Something he had desired.

Before they knew it, they meant to one another more than they thought. Accepting each other's faults and dreams as precious as their own.

"Are... are you sure, Mian..??" Fei Long finally asked, his voice breaking due to trepidation.

His heart was beating so painfully, he couldn't believe such a thing was possible. But he wanted Feng Mian, and he wanted her heart.

Feng Mian looked straight at him as she confirmed, "Yes, I am."

Although she sounded stiff, Fei Long no longer processed anything as his breathing hitched.

"This can't be real..."

-Pak!

A palm slapped across Fei Long's bewildered face. He stared at Feng Mian in utter stupor.

"Don't make me repeat myself."

Fei Long gulped. He wasn't sure why he felt a tingling sensation instead, making him feel excited with Feng Mian's bluntness.

"And another thing..." Feng Mian suddenly hesitated, as she looked down on the floor.

When Fei Long saw her this way, he couldn't resist the clawing in his heart, his hands itching to touch Feng Mian and finally confirm the reality of their mutual feelings.

And before he knew it, he was already kissing her, not waiting for her to say what she intended to say.

Fei Long gently pressed his lips onto her's. While Feng Mian found herself lost at first before abandoning everything and kiss back, following along Fei Long's intensity.

He pressed his lips gently at first, then nibbled her lower lip, savoring its softness. He wanted to express what he was feeling as it was bursting from his chest.

Feng Mian felt a little more aware now as she felt Fei Long clumsily smother her lips with his saliva. She groaned and grabbed for his necktie and kissed him deeper herself.

Fei Long blinked his eyes wide, but only for a moment before he closed his eyelids, allowing Feng Mian to reign over him with her domineering kisses.

Feng Mian nibbled on Fei Long's lower lip, the latter innocently opening his mouth only to moan when Feng Mian's tongue force its way into his mouth, gently dancing with his tongue and exploring the rest of his mouth.

Fei Long's mind was blanking out from Feng Mian's skillful deep kisses, his breathing grew labored as he couldn't stop himself from groaning from time to time. His hands didn't know where to go, so he absent-mindedly caressed Feng Mian's slender waist that was perfect for his big hands.

Noticing Fei Long's actions, Feng Mian wanted to dominate him even more. She swiftly pulled Fei Long onto the floor with her on top of him, their lips parting momentarily as Fei Long tried to catch on his breathe. But it was only a moment of respite for him as Feng Mian attacked him again and this time, it was not just on his lips but his ear, causing him to shiver from his heart. He liked her kisses very much.

Then she went down to his neck where she stayed for a while to nibble his skin.

Fei Long felt ticklish as sweetness spread over his chest. The moment was exciting, lovely and new. He wanted to see more of Feng Mian's wild and domineering side, while he was completely fine being the bottom, for now.

Once Feng Mian was done marking Fei Long's neck, she gazed into his electric blue eyes that looked like they were drowning with hot passion. She softly chuckled, her mannerism totally masculine as she drew her face closer onto Fei Long, their noses touching.

She pressed a kiss on his lips, slow and gentle, arousing a dangerous fire within him. But Feng Mian was not that generous as she immediately pulled away, making Fei Long disappointed. "You've dated so many women but why are you so clumsy?" Feng Mian harshly said, but Fei Long was already used to this as he merely smiled up at her.

"Shame on me.." He helplessly admitted as he was totally dominated by Feng Mian who was still sitting atop his abdomen, arousing his little man.

She scoffed, a smirk lacing her lips, looking even more like a sexy devil. Fei Long was totally, utterly and completely captivated by her.

----------------------------------------

One might wonder why Dean never had a chance to interfere between Fei Long and Feng Mian despite having been in privacy for so long.

Well, Shi Bai was totally keeping him busy!

Once Feng Mian and Fei Long left to have their heart to heart talk, Shi Bai immediately ordered a few drinks that was given to her after a minute. Simply because they were only water!

Having read so many possessive yaoi novels, mangas and animes, Shi Bai knew what a stalker looked like once her eyes laid upon one. Hence, she accidentally tipped over one of the glasses of water that caused the other glasses to topple the other.

The victim?

"......" Dean glared at Shi Bai whom he had been ignoring from the start. Even if he knew Feng Mian was a woman, he still didn't like how Feng Mian seemed fascinated with the woman before him. And he especially found her suspicious.

Just as he expected, she was up to no good! He was totally drenched by all the cold water that had ice mixed in them.

"Oh my~! I must have gotten fatter for hitting them all at once!!" Shi Bai immediately executed her Z-rated acting skills as she patted Dean with her very little hanky that was not enough to dry more than one area.

She slowly dabbed her hanky— pat— pat— Totally taking her time.

Her face didn't even look that worried.

And unfortunate for Dean, it was his pants that got wet. Now he looked like he had a big piss.

He tried to be patient for half an hour, to almost an hour until he could bear no more.

"Enough...!"

Shi Bai's green eyes glittered with mischief when she heard his voice. She softly whispered into his ears, "You know... I have a fudanshi friend who likes your type... he-he..."

"F-fudanshi, what?" Dean was caught by the foreign word as he stared at Shi Bai's deepening smile.

"Do you want to know?"

Dean didn't want to know now. "No."

"It's okay." She obliged, pressing a speed-dial on her phone and whispered some words before turning back to look at Dean. She was giggling non-stop now, causing much irritation to Dean.

After 5 minutes, a breathless hunk shot through the glass door into Buna Kafe.

"Here, Denise~"

Dean had a very bad premonition when he saw Shi Bai call for someone. He immediately stood up to leave only to be faced with a man taller and bigger than him. The face was not bad, the brows were bushy. His eyes caused Dean to feel some goosebumps.

"My present for you~ <3" Shi Bai proudly said, winking at Denise at the same time.

And the rest was history.
