Oath of Love

Sister Rong was already in the living room. She saw An Ran walking upstairs and came to carry the suitcase for her. It was not heavy, with only a few clothes. She didn’t pack much since Ye Chengwei had already prepared new clothes for her.

As she expected, Sister Rong said, “Miss An, change your clothes first. Young Master is waiting for you to have lunch in the dining hall.”

She dressed cheaply, or at least Ye Chengwei thought so.

She took a shower and had an overall change. She wore the new underwear which fit her perfectly. Young Master Ye did have seen a lot of women and could tell her size with a sight.

Sister Rong had arranged her stuff orderly. To be honest, she was a nice person.

She went down in her slippers. It was already an hour later. Ye Chengwei must have become impatient in the dining hall. He might punish her again by not letting her eat.

But surprisingly, Ye Chengwei sat at the table looking happy, although he was not smiling.

He saw An Ran walking to him slowly with all her newly-washed hair down. He sniffed a little and smelled the scent of rose. His face turned soft, which made him more attractive.

He reached out an arm to put on the chair next to him, indicating for An Ran to sit down.

An Ran did as he asked. She didn’t know what to say.

There were only two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table. After she sat down, maidens went to the kitchen to bring all the dishes.

“I don’t know what you like to eat.” Ye Chengwei played with her soft hair and said gently, “You can tell Sister Rong. She’ll see to it.”

“Oh.”

“Take here as your home.” Ye Chengwei’s voice was warm and affectionate.

“Sister Rong will arrange your daily activities. You can choose what you want to do, but you must be back here everyday.”

“Oh.”

“Can you stop ‘oh’?”

“En.”

Ye Chengwei: …

***

It was a sunny day. An Ran walked to the balcony to enjoy the land view of the villas which were surrounded by hills and water. Allegedly it had the best fengshui. And Ye Chengwei’s villas was at its best spot.

But An Ran was not in the mood for it. She just felt uneasy and restricted in this wide space.

She lay in the chair lazily and heard the footstep. She went up immediately and remembered that Ye Chengwei hadn’t left yet.

He walked to her confidently at ease with one hand in his pocket. An Ran wouldn’t deny that she really liked watching him walking in this way. He was handsome and free.

He walked with a nice smelling of perfume.

An Ran sniffed it unconsciously. He smelled like this five years ago and she still remembered it.

Ye Chengwei squatted at her side and stared at her. “I’ll go to the company and return tonight.”

“Oh…En.” An Ran answered him in a low voice.

Ye Chengwei put on a smile. He was in a good mood today to tolerate her, and even spoiled her a little.

He took her hand and put a diamond ring in her middle finger like a magician. It fit well as if it was customized for her.

An Ran looked at him with shock. The ring had about three carat diamonds. It was not huge but still a big stone.

“To our start.” Ye Chengwei said gently.

An Ran didn’t speak. She smiled, but her heart was filled with complex feelings.

From now on she would own diamond rings, limited edition handbags and new clothes with their tags on waiting for her to choose them.
