The Eternal Tulip

Chapter 13: Pov 13



Just then she saw the staffs stood in two rows, bending down neatly at 90 degrees. And the master who walked out of the store was wearing a cap and listening to his phone. 

His voice was gentle and beautiful.

The man was lowered his head and stood beside Jessica, and his iphone completely blocked his side.

The man beside him didn't say much, and only answered occasionally. His voice was deep and quiet. 

"The plan is canceled. I'm in town... at Illy cafe and I will deliver the file right away."

Illy Cafe? Instantly Jessica attention is all attracted by the man words, which is simply good luck falling from the sky. 

Although the destination is known, the seventh floor is so big that no one knows which corner it is in.

She has always been out of the way, and her sense of direction is very bad. 

There is no way to save it. She avoids going on more wrong roads later so Jessica followed the man a few steps away.

The man walked slowly and forcefully, walked to the elevator, stopped, and leaned forward slightly to press the button. The light lengthened his figure, and the black long leaned on the ground, just covering Jessica thin body, bringing her into a darkness.

The endless darkness seemed to swallow her soul together.

She finally saw the man face clearly. 

That's Shawn Hou, he did not seem to have changed at all. He was still same, but his clear and soft voice tone no longer existed now deep as a tough man.

The elevator came down steadily, and the man stepped in. He seemed to be very busy. His slender fingers pressed the floor number button and continued to lower his head to make a phone call.

Jessica swallowed herthroat, as if she was stuck in breath. She stood still. 

The moment the elevator door closed, she seemed to see the man looking up at her with familiar smile.

She thought that must be her illusion.

In past, Shawn eyes have always looked at her with a weird expression. But now his look has changed and becoming someone that different from the past.

Jessica lowered her head, and a sigh overflowed from the tip of her nose. 

When she turned around and left, but the elevator door suddenly reopened, accompanied by a man suspicious voice.

"Jessi... Is it you?" He asked.

Jessica body paused slightly, and her lips faintly tight as she tried to squeeze out a smile.

Oh my gosh. That's really him.

"Hey. Hi, Shawn. Long time no see." Jessica said.

"Yeah. It's has been a long time..." Shawn stretched out his hand to block the elevator door, and the smile on the corners of his lips.

"Where's you going? Why don't you take the elevator now? Come in." Shawn stretched out his hand slightly and pulled her in.

As she was caught off guard, Jessica staggered and fell into his arms. 

Her nose was full of his smell, mixed with a strong smell of woodies. But as Jessica remembered that Shawn never smoked in the past during their friendship.
