| Sometimes, actions are much better than  explanations |

I had never felt this jealous before, even though I hate this green monster occupying my mind, I couldn't take it's voice away.

I don't want to fell this way, ever, but that's life. No matter how much you wanted it to be gone, it would always be present.

I was silent, my eyes skimming down in the comments and skip the large amount of congratulations, some had even gave wishes for the two couple a happy marriage that further darkened my mood.

Maybe it's just some zombie accounts, maybe it was the waterborne troupe from the woman's side. I have a lot of excuses in my mind but still, the pain in my chest grew more and spread around my entire body. Shu Jian seems to have notice the state I am in and tugged my hem.

"Is something the matter Teacher Feng?"

"Just.... some matters that we, adults are going to fix" I bitterly smiled at her, I know that I wouldn't be able to lie on from of her smart mind but I cat at least say a bit of a truth from it.

The two of us left the office, my hands clutched into hers as I wove around the crowd of people.

I was going curious from the amount of people circling a particular place and as soon as I landed a step on that place, I met gazes with a very familiar person.

That person who manages to incite so much anger and annoyance from be but has also gifted me with affection and care.

He was looking in my direction, the crowd parted like the red sea as they gave way to him. He walks in like he was entering an award show, eyes trained on me and without any further notice, he acted.

His strides were long and powerful as he walk towards me. I was stiff on the other hand, my heart thumped loudly against my chest and my hands were fisted on my side.

I couldn't even mutter a sentence when his face leaned so close to mine I could feel his breath on my cheeks.

"Feng-er"

My eyes trembled and my heart skipped a beat. It was just a word, a single word yet it made such a large impact on my system.

"Look at me"

His fingers grip my chin securely, though it wasn't tight at all, I was unable to take it off.

"Wh-what are you d-doing?"

A shiver went down my spine when I notice the look on his eyes, it was the same from before. The same look of passion when he kissed me on the street eight years ago.

"I admit I had a few girlfriends before and add some weekly romance rumors but remember this. No matter how beautiful a flower is, it won't measure to that one single flower you've cared and nurtured, personally"

Then he dive in for a kiss without hearing my response.

...

My entire being thrummed in embarrassment but the satisfaction in my heart pushed the shame away.

I should have known, I mean he would always takes me home after his work ended and I just didn't think that he'll do it.

Shu Jian was given to Linjie, she drove her home but not without giving a slap in Ming Chen's head. She told me he deserves it and that he needs to be punished more.

Just remembering the scene where I was kissed in front of my colleagues and my students made my cheeks heat up in response.

I can only glare at the nonchalant man beside me, his hands drumming on the steering wheel, then he stared back at me.

I want him to know that I'm angry and that he's in deep trouble now but when I notice the raging inferno in his eyes, I looked away and squirmed in my seat.

He was looking at me, his eyes boring holes in my body as I try to keep a calm facade.

"Mind explaining?" My voice tremble at the end but I held my stance, still not meeting his eyes.

Then he scoot closer until his figure loom over my small frame. My hands was caught in between his large palm as I grew more clammy at the sight of him staring at me with a whirlwind of emotions.

"W-what?" I stammered out and decided to avoid his hard gaze but he hook his fingers under my chin and took me in a deep kiss.

Hands coiled in my hair, the hold he have in my hands loosen as he deepen the kiss while gently encasing my whole face with his palm. I was getting drowned at his show of affection, my eyelids closing down as I felt his tongue clashing with mine.

I knew I would never get tired of this, I love the way his hands were always gentle on me and the fact that he's mine.

His eyes were raging in tumultuous waves, fingers skimming the soft skin in my frame as he held me in his warm embrace.

I had forgotten the issue the moment I realized that he kissed me in front of everyone. He showed his affection in the eyes of people, those who have their phones high up in their faces, those who know who he is and what he does. I'm pretty sure the news would travel to everyone's ears the moment we step down this car.

As they say, facts beat eloquence, his way of solving things are different from mine.

At that thought, I kissed him with equal fervor, the earlier gloominess in my heart was washed away from his deep seated affection. My hands circling on his neck as I let him pushed me closer to oblivion, let him feel my flushed skin as I let myself be drunk by his intoxicating love.

His lips were as sweet as honey, soft as the texture of silk as he press butterfly kisses on the column of my neck. He was caging me, gently untangling his hands, he pressed a hard peck on my forehead before whispering.

"Let's get married"

Notes:

Zombie fans, meaning fake accounts.
Waterborne troupe, an internet slang that means people who are hired and paid by PR firms for online marketing purposes. It's usually used for sabotaging and flattering those of celebrities.
Facts beat eloquence, from Lu Xun's "Hot Wind" it's like, "Actions speak louder than words."
