"How did you do it?" she asked him incredulously.
"This amusement park belongs to a friend of mine," the man said, looking at her with eyes filled with lingering, tender affection.
"It’s beautiful. I really like it. Thank you," Mo Ran said sincerely.
Tang Song held out a hand, smiling as he asked, "Then, may I have the honor of dancing with you on the most beautiful stage?"
"Of course." She placed her hand in his, filled with gratitude.
Today she had lost one stage, but he had given her another. However, the first stage had many spectators, while the second had none. But that didn’t matter as long as she was happy.
They waltzed in the amusement park’s square, just the two of them, slowly dancing the most elegant and beautiful dance.
Tang Song skillfully spun her out then pulled her back, completing a perfect turn.
"You’re quite good at dancing," Mo Ran smiled and praised him.
"Actually, I’m not very good at it. It’s because I’m dancing with you that I do it well. Do you know? With the waltz, only when you place your hand in the one you like can you perform the most beautiful turns." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
Mo Ran looked at him in surprise, meeting his smile-filled eyes.
Her footsteps inadvertently stopped, a bit overwhelmed by his sudden confession.
"Did I scare you? If I knew I would scare you, I shouldn’t have said it..." Tang Song said somewhat awkwardly.
"No..." Mo Ran shook her head, "I’m just, a bit surprised."
"Surprised that I could like you, fall in love with you?"
"I..." A gentle kiss landed on her forehead, interrupting her words.
Tang Song looked into her eyes and said, "Don’t feel pressured. I just wanted to tell you how I feel, without expecting you to reciprocate."
"We’ve only met three times. Why would you like me?" It was impossible for Mo Ran not to feel nervous about receiving a confession from someone of the opposite sex for the first time.
He smiled, "Don’t you think that all three meetings were very special? I believe it was arranged by fate, meant for you and me. I have never liked anyone before, but this time, I am truly moved. Mo Ran, I love you, and I hope you can understand my feelings."
For the first time, someone told her they loved her...
Mo Ran’s heart started pounding fiercely, and her cheeks turned red. Recalling every encounter with Tang Song, she realized she had been happy each time.
