FENG MIAN AND FEI LONG arrived downstairs encountering Dean's dilemma.

He was being pestered by a man bigger than himself who obviously wanted him, with eyes sparkling and face blushing. Despite how lovable the man might look, Dean did not want any of this. He wanted the only person he decided to treasure for a lifetime.

Once he turned his head, however, he was met with a couple of people that seemed different than an hour before. His heart somersaulted in pain as his eyes reddened and riddled with anguish.

Ignoring Denise and Shi Bai, Dean hastened his steps to face Feng Mian who was also staring at him, but it was so heartbreaking for him to understand that the cold Feng Mian he knew had slowly thawed.

Dean's thoughts swirled and he felt like puking, his heart hurts so much. A tear unknowingly slid down his cheek as his cherry lips quivered.

He was suddenly cold, but he still remained to nervously ask, "Y-young master... You and him... how... why?" His facades crumbled, neither innocent nor the persevering Dean. He was merely a heartbroken man now, but at a corner of his heart, he was still willing to do anything to be with Feng Mian.

He had tried to be close to her, for so many times. But every time, he was shut off. He thought love would eventually bloom if he didn't give up, but seeing her with someone else broke him more than his heart.

Feng Mian saw the hurt, the crazy swirls of passion in Dean's eyes that she had tried to avoid. Seeing him this way, she didn't know how to treat him normally anymore. She had rejected him every time, but he was not the sort of man who can just give up once passion has been found.

Teary eyes stared with frost-cold, both equally perplexed but only one was breaking apart.

"Why can you accept him and not me...? I have loved you from the very beginning... I still do and even more.... Young Master...!" Dean was hysteric and the customers in Buna Kafe had stopped whatever they were doing to witness a drama unfold.

Dean had his finger pointed at Fei Long, while the latter faced him squarely, not bearing the face of victory but sympathy for Dean's disappointment. It was hard enough to find someone to love truthfully, respectfully and immensely, how much more if it was just taken before anything begun.

Feng Mian bowed. "I'm sorry, but I realized I like Fei Long and I don't want him to be engaged with someone else." She honestly told him. Not finding excuses, nor pretending to be soft for the heartbroken Dean.

It would not have been fair for the headstrong young man who only saw light from one person, who obviously treasured Feng Mian for whatever she was, and he wanted to have her for himself alone. But obviously, now there was another person.

Looking at Dean's unbearable beautiful face, Feng Mian was slowly being eaten by guilt until Dean spoke once again.

"Then I'll have to pass a law in my country. You can marry both of us, Young Master.. No need to choose."

Everyone was speechless.

Only Shi Bai was squealing so bad as she tried to calm her heart down from almost forgetting to breath, her nose was bleeding from too much excitement.

When does one encounter this sort of drama in a seemingly peaceful Buna Kafe?

Pictures were slowly taken as the drama continued to unfold, and this would become the headline for some time and be remembered for a long time, in D City filled with fujoshis and fudanshis, where love has no boundary.

"Are you crazy?!" Feng Mian snapped.

"I am crazy for you!" Dean snapped back.

"Why can't you see that there can't be 'we'!"

"There is no me without you, so it can only be 'we' for me, Young Master... No.. Feng Mian..." Despite his tumultuous heart, it still flipped and beat for Feng Mian when his mouth uttered her name, which he never tried to call her with before. It was strangely good, a little respite for the holes on his heart.

Feng Mian can be understanding, but Dean's stubbornness always pushes her on edge. The man can never accept no! Was she doomed to carry two people's heart? Or will the person she was willing to trust her heart with must undergo heartbreak for her? She could not bring herself to do it, imagining Fei Long's heartbreaking face, lost and sad.

It was at this time that Fei Long finally spoke. "Dean." He begun to say, his voice was the only one that sounded composed, bringing forth a different level of tension.

"If you really love Feng Mian, learn to let him go."

Dean was gritting his teeth from being cornered, his heart pulsing with so much strength. It was Fei Long! Ever since Fei Long came along, Feng Mian's frozen heart slowly thawed. But he couldn't bring himself to hate the man, because much like him, the other had fallen for Feng Mian without as much resistance.

He couldn't blame Fei Long, not when his feelings cannot lose against him.

Dean didn't know what to do. He really didn't want to give up, not so soon after their reunion. He then realized his mistakes.

He pushed Feng Mian too much, forcing her to realize who she liked the most and who she was willing to keep her heart. She realized there was no other men or women she can live with comfort besides the only person who has ever stayed by her side.

He felt very unwilling, subconsciously biting his lower lip, tears flowing down his smooth cheeks. He felt suffocated and only one person can mend it, but this person was the most decisive he had ever met. One that was willing to cut someone's heart early to stop germination. She was cutthroat, calculative and almost indifferent.

Only, it was this exact person, the hardest to love, the hardest to have her love obtained, was the most precious to him, more than his life. He couldn't take it. Not like this.

"F-feng Mian...." He whimpered, tears fell fast and warm on his skin.

Even Shi Bai who was previous squealing at the three-men-love stopped and felt her heart twinge with pain. Truthfully, it was her who made Feng Mian step out and face what she didn't want to face before. But Shi Bai knew she was not at fault, because it eventually needed to be done.

Whether it was Fei Long or Dean, both loved Feng Mian for who she was. It was only Feng Mian's heart that had unknowingly slipped someone in, and for her to notice now.

The three main characters in Buna Kafe were at a standstill.

None of the audience wanted to break the drama that was reaching its climax.

Denise was slowly waving his handkerchief for the sudden lose of his newfound love after seeing Dean's passionate confession, over and again. He respected the man even more!

Feng Mian gently massaged her forehead, sighing heavily.

Fei Long wanted to help her massage her head, so he drew himself close and slowly took over in pressing his slender fingers over her head, helping her calm her nerves. While at it, he thoughtlessly said, "Feng Mian is still in University, and just starting. Even if she accepted me, nothing will really start until she accomplished what she wants to do. While you yourself ought to learn some restraint. I trust Feng Mian, and whatever she wants to do, I'll follow."

"...Are you saying, you are not afraid to lose me?" Feng Mian sharply asked.

Fei Long shook his head, a smile lacing his lips. "No, Mian... I want you. Just that, with Dean's persistence, he will eventually have a piece of your heart and wherever it may go, I will always be here with you."

"...You guys are not making this easy for me." Feng Mian finally said, sighing in frustration.

She had two leeches now, both of which did not want to leave her side at all.

Did she make a mistake after all? But she had given her answer and she wouldn't betray herself. A heart given, remains to whom it was given.

Hearing Fei Long's words, Dean felt a little better. "I'm also willing to get along with Fei Long if he comes as a package with you, Feng Mian..."

Now, Feng Mian felt like she wanted to collapse there and then.

"That's not a solution... Dean, please."

"Feng Mian... I..."

"Do you truly want to live a life with your heart breaking every other day? I know you can't, because I definitely cannot see myself wanting to be shared by two people. One is enough, and I cannot accept no other."

Her voice was clear and decisive. There was no point in begging nor negotiating.

Dean's heart bled until he could not handle it anymore.

He collapsed on himself, his knees slamming the tiles on the floor, he covered his face with his large hands. He whimpered like a child, having his favorite toy taken away. He wanted all the lost moments back, back to when he didn't have to move away. Back to when he was merely serving by Feng Mian's side. Back to when he still had a chance, no matter how slim.

He cried his heart out, and Feng Mian and everyone else felt it all. The heartbreak, the sadness and the helplessness of losing the only thing you ever wanted.

Several others in the cafe had begun to cry, silently. While others felt their throat hitched from the unexpected drama. Some remembered their own pain, causing them to empathize with Dean even more, their heart bleeding with him.

Feng Mian's brows scrunched up, not knowing what to say nor do. She had always known how to fight against other's schemes, but Dean merely fought with all his heart bare. With facades or none, he was always true to his feelings, always making her know he loved her. Before and now. How deep must his love be to remain committed?

What they didn't have was time to foster what could have been.

It was then that Shi Bai suddenly cried, running to hug Dean like a bestie. She wiped away his tears, hugged him like a babe and said, "It's okay! You three can go all the way! I mean, you only need to sacrifice your arse!!"

She was totally out of the line, but her words were enough to snap out everyone from their melancholy. A few girls and boys in the crowd agreed as they chimed in.

"That's right!! Master Zhao, just accept the two men! We won't judge!"

"Right! Mr Dean is actually amazing, remaining devoted to you despite already having Master Liu! Just accept the man!"

"Baby, don't cry... Nobody said you only have to have one love in a lifetime!"

And these went on for a while longer as Feng Mian and Fei Long felt they were slowly being cornered. Were they supposed to just resolve it this way? They were both perplexed!

Feng Mian never gave her heart before, mainly due to her family. While Fei Long didn't like being together with more than one person because of his father. They were both people who only believed in one fate, one pair and loyalty.

But clearly, the world has changed!
