Today's mission is to deliver lee's gift, Hua is still finishing her work, so, I am waiting for her to get everything done.
See you tomorrow Yibo!!!!
Wait... i need to talk to you!!!
Yes, what's up??
Here!!!
What's this?
A gift!!!! .... from my friend.
Which one? She said while frowning,
Lee, you might know him, he's works at...
No i don't, and i don't want anything from him, she said, while walking out.
Why not?? I mean, i understand you can't accept gift from a stranger, but alteast hear me out.
No i don't want to, do i have a choice to say no. Did my feelinhs matter here?
Hey!!! Relax, you are making this way more serious, if you don't want to, fine, I'll tell him to not bother you, but he is a really nice guy, trust me, not because he's my friend, you are my friend too. I want both my friends to be happy. I am not in a position to say much. However, don't reject him before knowing him, you can be friends with him. How's that??
I don't know, let me think about it??
No problem, it's your life, so your choice, i can only advice you.
Thanks.

In the king's room:

Yibo, come here!!!! Also, get your cushion.
I sat on the usual spot, i was little confused, why is he not laying down??
What?? Can't i talk to you???, as if he read my mind.
Sure, i smiled...
So, how are you liking this place so far? Everything alright, I'm asking if something is wrong, i can change in order to make my palace a better place for the people who work here.
No, everything is very systemic as well as everyone does their work professionally.
good to hear that, by the way, will you help me choosing a color for my new robe?
Everything suits you,
Hahaha thanks, but i really need a suggestion, what color you would prefer for a robe??
Me, I'm fine with anything.
Still???
Maybe white and red
Oh okay, that's a good one, thank you, I will consider it.

Tuesday:
I'm home today, i can't let myself fall asleep, because if I did that now, i won't be able to sleep at night, and i have work in the morning. For now, I will finish my training, work on my idea and also see lee.

She said that....
Yes, don't lose hope, she will think about it.
When, i have been trying to talk to her since last 2 years, she knows I'm truly in love with her. I can do anything for her.
Anything??
Yes
Then give her time.
Of course, you think i will give up, no i won't
That's the spirit.

Following day:

I woke up at 5am, uncle is still sleeping, i went to the place I was told, I was waiting outside the courtroom when I saw the king was walking towards my direction with guards following him.
Yibo, you are already here?
I bowed Zao Shang hao (Good morning)
Morning, let's go we need to reach somewhere.

We reached a place, beautiful place, a temple.
I wanted to visit this from so long, however, I was too busy and didn't have any special occasion, but today, he turned towards me and said,
Happy birthday, Yibo!!!! I wish a bright future for you.
Blank... my mind went blank,..... I'm shocked but very happy, birthdays to me is just another day, but this time it's special, thank thank you so much, king but how come?
Your uncle accidentally mentioned while talking to me, the day I was sick, he told me that his marriage anniversary is in a few days and the day after you were born. You can say I'm just a good listener.
Now let's go and get blessings for ourselves.

As we came out of the temple, a guard step forward and bowed....
Greetings king, I'm here to deliver queen mother's message. She has asked you to come back immediately and meet her.
Bowed again....
Alright, you may leave

Yibo, sorry we have to go, I wanted to make your birthday special but...
You already did, I can't express it in words.
Let's go, once we arrived, come along to my room then you can enjoy your birthday with your uncle and your friends.
Hmm... i nodded.

We are in the king's room now, I stood by the door, as he went towards his bed,
Come here!!!!
This is for you, I didn't have much time to prepare, but still, I hope you like it.
I'm very glad....my words got stuck when I heard....

Xiao Zhan, where did you go??? His mother waked in, she seems very angry.
Mother, I went to the temple
Temple???
You have time to go to the temple, but not to go with me???
I can go with you but not if you are trying to get me to meet any princess.
What's wrong with that?
I don't want to...
You are an adult, being engaged will make no harm to you,
Suddenly she looked at me, you, you don't have the common sense to leave when we are talking.
I immediately bowed, apologies I said.

Yibo, you may leave, I heard Zhange saying and I left them alone.
Why am I feeling this pain in my heart?? I don't care if Zhange's mom treated me like that but I don't like the idea of zhange getting close to a girl. It's not right to force him.
I opened the box while sitting on my bed that Zhange gave me, it's a beautiful white robe with red embroidery, on top of it, a bracelet, as i took the robe out, a paper fell down.
Happy birthday Yibo, you are the purest and innocent soul I have met, may god bless you with lots of happiness.
Awwww..... he' so sweet, I'm so happy, I went to take a shower, I dressed in the robe he gave me and put on the bracelet, I'm going to treat lee because I am very happy. As I was about to reach lee...
Hi birthday boy, he shouted,
Ahh...how do you know???
Your uncle told me, where's my treat?
That's what I came for.
Really???
Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner.

While returning back, I wanted to thank Zhange for the birthday gift, so I waited outside his room, with a box of sweets.
After waiting for a while, he came, he wasn't paying attention and went straight inside his room, I immediately walked after him into his room.
King, pardon me, I bowed
Yibo??
I looked up,
You are looking .... looking handsome,
Thanks, I wasn't able to hold my smile.
I bought sweets for you
So nice of you, he took the box from my hands, I love sweets, he said.
I will take your leave.
Wait, don't mind my mother, she is a nice lady, but today she was a little angry.
No, no sometimes mothers can be like that, I understand!!!
Happy birthday again!!! Good night
