First Doesn't Mean Last

Secret Place

"Surprise." Xiao Lei grinned while driving.

Mei looked through the window as Xiao Lei drove through the highway. The window was open on her side, but Xiao Lei's window was closed.
The breeze blew her violet hair beautiful, and her purple eyes shone as each light on the highway reflected on them.

After an hour or two, Chen Mei started to feel refreshed. A small grin appeared on her lips as she admired the beautiful night.

"We're here." Xiao Lei announced as he went on a more deserted place. He parked the car and took his seat belt, getting off Mei's car.

Chen Mei did the same. She wasn't sure what to do. She looked at the time on her phone. It was already 11 pm. She wasn't sure what this man wanted from her. She only jokingly agreed to date him. But why couldn't she bring herself to tell him that she doesn't want to meet him anymore? It was a mystery to her as well.

Lei, on the other hand, seemed very happy. He brought her to his secret place. A place he found before his father's death and he found peace here whenever he came. He hoped that Mei would like this place as well.

"So? What's this place?" Mei asked as she looked around trying to see what exactly he wanted to show her.

Xiao Lei chuckled, Mei was just too cute in his eyes.
"Not here," he grabbed Mei's hand gently and started walking, "this way," he added.

After walking for around five minutes, they arrived on top of a cliff. The view from there was extremely beautiful. All the buildings were lightened up. There were green, red, yellow, white lights all over. There was also a field with all colours of flowers that made the view even more enjoyable.

Mei covered her mouth in shock. Her eyes shone, she was unable to take her eyes off such a beautiful sight.
"Beautiful, right?" Xiao Lei asked with a grin on his face. He felt relieved seeing her reaction. He thought maybe she wouldn't like it. But he was very greatful that she seemed to enjoy the view.
"I hope it makes you feel better. You know, about what happened uhh..." he scratched his hair, a little embarrassed as he knew he was partly at fault. "About what happened in the club back there. I didn't know it would make you upset." He sighed.
"It's fine." Mei said as she took a deep breath. "Thanks to you I found something very precious." Her gaze was outside the window, watching the lights outside as Lei drove.
"That's good then."
