I Want to Waste Away Time With You: Chapter 29


It was only as his words fell that her phone received a series of alerts. There were new emails, new text messages, new WeChat and QQ messages, and so on. She looked at her as her entire body stiffened. It took her a long time to remember that today is her 23rd birthday.

No wonder Cheng Si Ran called her to remind her to check her emails…. Maybe it is because she had been too busy lately she really forgot about this matter.

Although she forgot it, the numerous messages on her phone clearly show that others have not forgotten. Parents, friends, and some junior high school students whom she has not been in contact for a long time.

But now her mind is filled with one thought. Even though the entire world knows, he shouldn’t have known.

He doesn’t seem like the person who would write down a person’s birthday and he clearly is someone who keeps a clear distance away from everyone. She never told him that he birthday is today but at midnight, he wished her a happy birthday in front of 27000 people on the YY channel.

Whether it was intentional or not, this is the most romantic thing that she has ever experienced.

Suddenly, someone on the mike coughed. The deadly still YY channel finally recovered from the great shock.

The person who coughed was White Jade Radish. He coughed for a long time before he humbly said, “I choked on the water earlier….”

“My gosh…..what is going on. My frail heart is about to be blown up.” Pond Fish was so surprised that her voice even dwindled, “Male God, don’t tell me you agreed to participate in this YY event just to wish her a happy birthday.”

Even the experienced gold host, Purple Glass, don’t know what to do at the moment. It could be that it wasn’t chaotic enough because he spoke once again. His voice was neither light nor heavy and was very calm compared to the exploding public screen.

"I know that you are listening. Have fun on your birthday today"

He softly and slowly said this, his voice still clear and beautiful. Everyone on the channel stayed silent. And in the airport of a foreign country, people came and go to the cafe, everyone in a hurry. Only Lu Wei Xi who is holding her phone, when she heard these sentences, her tears fell without warning.

Perhaps every girl whether she is young and inexperienced or past her prime, there would be some sort of fairy tale complex. We have all seen many happy fairy tales and have even fantasized many times about being the spoiled princess in the stories.

But have you really tried to test this feeling?

Happiness comes when you least expected it. That man who is reticent and cherishes words like gold, broke each of his principles one after another just to wish her a happy birthday in front of the entire world.

The overhead speakers sounded again, “Ladies and gentlemen, Air China flight CA988 is boarding now. Please have all your baggage and belongings and boarding pass ready through Gate 3. Thank you. (Repeats in Chinese)

When Lu Wei Xi heard the announcement, she instinctively took off her earphones and walked out of the cafe. She bumped into two people and hit a wall once before she managed to get to the gate and line up to board.

The flight from South Korea to the U.S. is around 12 hours. And she was in a state of fascination and nervousness.

She wants to sleep. Once she closes her eyes she will hear his voice. Hear him wish her a happy birthday, hear him tell her to have fun on her birthday today…..those were what he said to her. It’s like entering a magic barrier over and over again.

——

After arriving at the Newark Liberty International Airport in New York, Lu Wei Xi yawned as she waits for her suitcase on the baggage conveyor. After being on a flight for 12 hours, her hair’s messy and she panda eyes.

Her phone rang. She rubbed her eyes and answered, “Hello?”

“Hello, I’m Yu Mo Ran. Have you arrived in New York?”

A cute female voice sounded from the other side of the phone. Lu Wei Xi took a moment to realize that she is the same girl who also won the first prize. She quickly responded, “En, I’m just waiting for my suitcase. Where are you, I’ll go look for you later.”

The girl softly and heartily laughs, “I’m next to the entrance of the McDonald’s by the T3 exit. I have long hair, am wearing a blue sweater and carrying a pink bag. You should recognize me.”

“All right then. I’ll come over after getting my luggage. Wait a while.”

“Okay, see you later.”

“See you later.”

After hanging up, Lu Wei Xi reported to her parents and the others that she had safely arrived. She rubbed her temples in fatigue.

Trying to make herself feel better, after retrieving her luggage, she went to wash her face before following the flow of people to the T3 exit.

Sure enough, just like Yu Mo Ran said, she was able to recognize her in a second. Her hair is tied into two ponytails. She wore a blue sweater and a black skirt coupled with a classic pink MCM bag.

Lu Wei Xi walked over with no hesitation and gently tap her shoulder, “Sorry to keep you waiting. My suitcase was part of the last batch to come out.”

“Oh, it’s fine.”

The girl turned around. Her face is covered in heavy Japanese Loli-style makeup.

Yu Mo Ran warmly said, “Let’s go. The tour guide just called me just now. I told that we will meet him at Exit 9.”

Therefore, Lu Wei Xi, still very sleepy, didn’t respond at all and carried her bag as she followed her to Exit 9.

The tour guide is very recognizable. The reason being is, he carried a big sign in his hand with their two names clearly written with a gold fluorescent pen.

The tour guide is surnamed Li. He looked like an attractive man and doesn’t seem that old as well.

The local time in New York is already 10 in the evening. After successfully meeting up, with the request of the two girls, they drove directly back to the hotel.

Along the way, they passed through many landmarks. While driving, the diligent tour guide introduced them to the scenery of New York.

"New York City is the largest and most prosperous city in the United States and is also called the city that never sleeps. It belongs to the north temperate zone and has four distinct seasons. It also has a pleasant climate so like right now which is around April and May, you can go out wearing only a single layer of clothing. The most prosperous part of New York City is Manhattan. Times Square, also known as the “crossroads of the world” is also located there. There is also the Broadway Theatre, Madame Tussauds, and so on.” He turned the steering wheel and continued, “Our hotel is nearby, only a fifteen-minute drive away. It is really late today. After going in have a good night's rest. I will pick you up at the hotel entrance at 8:30 tomorrow morning to start our journey "

“Just One Last Dance” played in the car. The volume was not too loud, “When we sway and turn round

And round and round

It's like the first time

Just one more chance

Hold me tight

And keep me warm

Cause the night is getting cold

And I don't know where I belong


The tour guide’s words were hazy. Lu Wei Xi sat in the back seat and stared at the night scene outside the window, finding it surreal.

She just crossed the ocean to another country on the other side of the world.

And she doesn’t know, in this big world, that person is also here right now.

Fate is always unpredictable, just wait to see.
