Present Day
Venetian Hotel
Jeff Chee's POV
So, this is the one, Qing had always been in love with.
I attended a seminar at one of the Venetian Hotel seminar room, earlier today. And because it's not a complete stay at the Venetian Hotel without visiting the indoor canal; of course I took the opportunity to take a stroll there.
The gondola ride would be too embarrassing to ride alone; as people only do it when they're with their lover and family. Apart from couples and family, only tourists ride the gondola ride alone.
Yet, the unofficial 'law' to ride the gondola would be, you have to ride it with your loved ones. Hence, I was only looking at the gondola rides passing by from the side, enjoying the late afternoon breeze.
And that's when the couple on one of the gondola rides, caught my eyes. I froze; Wang Qing!
Oh, I already knew that he's rumoured to be in relationship with someone and that it's indeed a man; it had been reported in countless of newspapers and gossip magazines, for a year now. And Wang Qing had actually more or less let the cat out of that bag to us, two years ago; as he left the lunch date I had set up for us.
I had also seen the pictures of them together; and there were quiet a few of them; some were taken by persistent photographers and some were taken by bystanders who happened to see them on dates. But still; I couldn't quiet accept or comprehend it. The fact that Wang Qing was dating another man; seemed unreal to me.
Even though, the pictures taken of them; were blatant enough; with Wang Qing's arms often around the shorter man, and some were showing Wang Qing's expressions as he beamed at the man; yet, I thought that those pictures could have been mistakenly portraying things.
After all, there was still no official confirmation from the man himself that he's dating the guy. And even though, the guy's good looking, he could possibly be just a close friend. That's what I thought.
