“Mr. Lu, relax,” Shen Hanxing smiled lightly. She said gently, “I’m a good citizen who abides by the law. Don’t worry! I won’t let you do anything illegal. I heard that Lu Shaoyang is getting engaged.” She knocked twice on the table. Then, she lowered her voice. “As an uncle, it shouldn’t be difficult to arrange a marriage for your nephew. We… then…”
As Shen Hanxing explained, Lu Feng’s eyes lit up in joy. In the end, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Alright, I’ll listen to your plan, Miss Shen. Since my big brother cares so much about the Lu Corporation, I’ll snatch the thing he cares about the most!”
“It’s a deal then?” Shen Hanxing stood up and draped her coat over her shoulders. She smiled and extended her hand, “Mr. Lu, I wish us a happy cooperation.”
Lu Feng said, “A happy cooperation.”
After Shen Hanxing left, Lu Feng sat in his seat for a long time. The restaurant filled with people gradually quieted down, and the lights in the surroundings slowly went out. The waiter cleaned the place and saw Lu Feng and his table with only some desserts. He asked carefully, “Mr. Lu Feng, we’re closing soon. Is there anything I can help you with?”

Lu Feng was a middle-aged man who was still elegant and handsome. These restaurant waiters would occasionally gossip about him when they were free. After all, Lu Feng would e to their restaurant on time on the 15th of every month. He would order a table of food but would not eat them. After listening to the blind woman playing the piano at eight o’clock, he gave her a bunch of lilies. Then, he would get up and leave. He did not arrive early, nor did he leave late. He was on time, as if he was punching in for work. He came alone and left alone. From the beginning to the end, he did not say a word as if he was waiting for the blind woman to play the piano. However, he never talked to the blind woman.
The waiters were secretly guessing what happened between the two of them. They even imagined the scenario of the sadomasochistic relationship in their minds, thinking that Mr. Lu and the blind woman could not be together because of some misunderstanding.
But this time, Mr. Lu Feng had not left yet. The waiters felt that something was different. He noticed a beautiful woman sitting beside Mr. Lu Feng during the meal earlier.
“Nothing,” Lu Feng suddenly turned around and stood up. “I’m sorry. I’ll leave now.” He put on his coat, and his footsteps that were supposed to leave stopped again. He walked to the piano. His hand gently touched the white piano as if municating with its owner.
In the dimly lit restaurant, Lu Feng’s eyes were filled with sadness, as if he had an endless story to tell. After a while, he withdrew his hand and turned to leave as if he had made up his mind. Just as Lu Feng was about to leave, a young waitress ran over in a hurry. She subconsciously called out, “Mr. Lu Feng!”
Lu Feng stopped and turned his head over. The young girl was panting, and her face was slightly blushed. She had e out alone. But when she faced Lu Feng, she wondered if she was being nosy. Yet when she thought of the curve of the lips of the blind female pianist, she could not help but muster up the courage to ask softly, “Are you still ing on the 15th of next month? Will you continue to send flowers to the lady who plays piano in our restaurant?” The little girl felt that Lu Feng’s actions today seemed to be a farewell. So, she was afraid that Lu Feng would not e in the future. Her gaze was nervous and anxious. She did not want Mr. Lu Feng and the blind pianist’s relationship to end here.
Lu Feng looked at the waitress in surprise. Suddenly, he smiled and said gently, “I don’t know either, but I hope I can e on time.” After a pause, he took out a business card and handed it over. He said softly, “If I have something to do at that time and can’t e over, can you help me send her a bunch of white lilies?”
The little girl’s eyes lit up. The white lilies meant happiness would always be there. Therefore, Mr. Lu Feng hoped that the lady who played the piano could be happy, right? But… since there was such love and expectation, he could also e and give his implicit blessing for ten years without any hindrance. Why couldn’t he confess his love and personally give that lady happiness?
“Of course,” The little girl took the business card with slight excitement. After holding it in for a while, she finally couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Lu Feng, why don’t you ever talk to her?”
