Chapter 249 Won’t let go
"You my darling, looks splendid." Lei Zhao said as he gazed lovingly at his wife. Yan Mei was wearing a simple loose white dress that complimented her pale skin.
Her lips were painted red and her hair was pulled into a ponytail making her look simple yet gorgeous.
A smile etched on Yan Mei's face when he heard his compliment.
"Thank you. You don't look bad yourself."
Lei Zhao chuckled and took her hand and brought it up to her lips, gently kissing them before helping her take a seat.
The dinner date went extremely well. Lei Zhao had personally prepared the food according to Yan Mei's tastes and it tasted heavenly.
After the date they went on a small stroll on the beach while making conversation with Lei Zhao occasionally stealing kisses from her.
He laid her to a bonfire that he had made someone set up for them.
Yan Mei raised her brows when she saw the bonfire and looked at Lei Zhao.
"What is going on?"
Lei Zhao smirked and led her to the bonfire. There was a guitar there. Lei Zhao picked the guitar making Yan Mei giggled.
"Don't tell me you're going to play the guitar?"
Lei Zhao grinned and struck a cord causing Yan Mei to be surprised.
They sat down as Lei Zhao began to play a tune. Yan Mei widened her eyes as she recognized the music.
"I met you in the dark, you lit me up
You made me feel as though I was enough
We danced the night away, we drank too much
I held your hair back when
You were throwing up
Then you smiled over your shoulder
For a minute, I was stone-cold sober."
Lei Zhao sang as he gazed lovingly at Yan Mei. Yan Mei couldn't help but feel giddy. She smiled as she sway her body to the tune.
"I pulled you closer to my chest
And you asked me to stay over
I said, I already told ya
I think that you should get some rest
I knew I loved you then
But you'd never know
'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go
I know I needed you
But I never showed
But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
I'll wake you up with some breakfast in bed
I'll bring you coffee with a kiss on your head
And I'll take the kids to school
Wave them goodbye
And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night
When you looked over your shoulder
For a minute, I forget that I'm older
I wanna dance with you right now
Oh, and you look as beautiful as ever
And I swear that everyday you'll get better
You make me feel this way somehow
I'm so in love with you
And I hope you know
Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold
We've come so far, my dear
Look how we've grown
And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
I wanna live with you
Even when we're ghosts
'Cause you were always there for me when I needed you most
I'm gonna love you 'til
My lungs give out"
His eyes stared intensely at Yan Mei as if he was making a vow. Yan Mei took in a deep breath to control her emotions as she listened to the man she loves pour out his affections for her.
"I promise 'til death we part like in our vows
So I wrote this song for you, now everybody knows
That it's just you and me 'til we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
Oh, just say you won't let go"
Lei Zhao striked the final chord and smiled affectionately at Yan Mei.
"How was it? Have I made your heart swell with love? Is it going to burst out of your chest?" Lei Zhao said sarcastically as he winked at her.
Yan Mei playfully rolled her eyes at him. Ignoring his shamelessness she asked him, "Where did you learn how to play the guitar and sing like that! You're so good!"
Yan Mei screamed excitedly like a little fan girl.
"You can be an idol! With your face and voice I'm sure all the girls will swoon over you."
Lei Zhao chuckled at her words and shook his head helpless.
"Hmmm. Maybe I should consider being an idol. I might find some beauties to company me."
Yan Mei's smile dropped the moment she heard him.
"What beauties? Lei Zhao you dare think about other women?"
Lei Zhao chuckled and wrapped his hands around her waist. With the most beautiful woman right here in my arms why would I think about other women."
Yan Mei smiled when she heard him.They stayed quietly in each other's arms as they looked at the stars in the sky.
They both such a relaxing moment between them it's extremely rare and they have to cherish it.
"Do you know why I brought you to this island?" Lei Zhao suddenly asked breaking the silence.
Yan Mei shook her head and turned to look at him.
"Why?"
"Because I heard the stars here at night are extremely beautiful. I know how much you love watching the stars so I brought you here."
Yan Mei smiled when she heard him.
What will she do if she hadn't met this man, right here?
Will she ever be happy if she hadn't met him?
"Dear stars, thank you for leading such a wonderful man to me. Mom, baby, bestie I know it's you guys will sent such a lovely man to me. Thank you. Don't worry, I'm going to fight for this relationship and my happiness."
Lei Zhao playfull poked Yan Mei's cheeks.
"What are you thinking about?"
"You. I'm thinking about you."
Lei Zhao grinned and hugged her tighter as they enjoyed being in each other's arms.
