CHAPTER 300

**FLASHBACK ENDS**

"I hope you like your mooncake snacks." Just as his mother said that, so did Li Jing, thus pulling him out from the past and back to the present. 

A cute sad smile suddenly appeared on his lips. As cute as that was, Li Jing knew that something was wrong when his eyes narrowed greatly.

"Tang Zixin, is anything the matter?"

"No." His smile widened and he looked away from the food box then smiled sweetly at her. "It just brought back memories," Tang Zixin half confessed.

"Ohh… I am sorry. I did not mean to change your mood."

"No, not that. I am fine. It wasn't an all too sad memory. You just made me miss her."

"Who?"

"My mother. I recalled the time when she served me this in a similar colour of lunch box for me to take to school."

"That is a nice memory."

"Yeah, God bless her soul." His eyes dropped and so did his smile as he gently traced the outlines of the box, obviously still thinking about his past.

After a minute Tang Zixin broke the silence with his question. "How did you know that mooncakes are my favourite snacks?"

0_0

"Ha… I didn't."

'What1" Tang Zixin could not believe this was just a mere coincidence.

"I never knew, truly. I just decided to make them at home and was hoping to take some with me during our outing but since that would not be possible then I thought you should have some."

"Wow… I… do not know what to say, Li Jing but thank you so much. This mooncake did not only bring back happy memories, but it also brought solutions to my problems as well."

"Oh, happy to help whenever and where ever I can."

He gave her a tight-lipped smile and then took one of the mooncakes to put in his mouth.

"Hmmm… satisfying just as I recall." Tang Zixin exclaimed a little bit loudly for all to hear as he reminisced the days he ate his mother's delicacies. 

It was like de javu to him as he closed his eyes and saw himself as a young teenager always yearning for some mooncakes.

At a time then in elementary school, they called him mooncakes, because he loved it so much but after the teacher warned them, due to his status, everyone deviated from it. That was how much he loved it.

"Thanks." He took some water and rank before closing the box and tying back the package ver it. "I am going to enjoy this, Li Jing. Now I do not need to worry much. All would be well. Having these mooncakes feels like having you and my mother with me to watch over me as I scale through this."

"And you will, Tang Zixin. I believe in you."

When the time was up, Tang Zixin left her house and went straight for the airport to fix things in his life while leaving her with a promise to return to fulfil their outing.

On the other hand, after the survey, Jia Huang returned home to his family and decided to bring the issue up to them about not wanting any part in it again.

He knew this was not going to be an easy feat to accomplish and as such he decided that the person to first talk to was his fiancé and that was what he did.

His fiancé, Yuwen Xiaoba was the second and only daughter of the Yuwen family. Their family and his had been close for years now and when they came of age, they felt it would be nice if the two children were to get married to each other.

With not much of their consent other than telling them they have found someone for them to marry and stating who it was, the other things were left to be handled by their parents.

Knock! Knock!

"Come in," a peculiar soft voice called out from within the room. Jia Huang looked at the door tagged Yuwen's Princess and inhaled deeply first before he held the door handle and turned it.

The moment the door pushed open, he lowered his head at first then slowly raised it like a criminal caught in a severe criminal offence.

His eyes met hers. They were shining dark brown just like the colour of her hair. Her face held a lovely smile at first but when she noticed the look in his eyes was dull and sad, hers mirrored his and she stood up from where she was seated on her bed.

"Jai Huang, what is the matter?" Yuwen Xiaoba asked the moment she got to where he stood by the door.

Jai Huang could not answer her question. The only thing in his mind was how he was going to tell this innocent beauty that he wanted to end their relationship.

"Jia Huang, talk to me. You are getting me scared. What is going on with you? Are you sick? Do you need me to send for a doctor?"

She threw several questions at him, still, he answered not one of them.

"Aiden! Speak to me," her voice broke a bit. Even though there was no love in their relationship, she was still very much concerned about him and that was because they had been close friends as children.

Unknown to him, she still cherished their friendship till now, even though he may not think of her as his close friend again.

Still, she did and that was why when she was asked to marry him, she did not go against them. She believed they could work things out based on the fact that they knew each other. 

Just like him, she had been hurt before and she also refused to fall in love again, that was another reason why she accepted the marriage but a part of her hoped that they may be able to find love in the future if they are willing to try.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoba. I'm sorry."

"What is wrong really. Tell me and it would be okay."

"I fell in love."
