Words I Was Afraid To Hear

Madeline Song had just arrived at the airport and will be sent home by Dan"s driver . Just before she exited, she heard a familiar voice call out to her .

"Miss Song! Madeline Song!" A man in a uniform jogged towards her .

When she looked back, appearing before her was the towering figure of Long Yun .

She squinted her eyes at him . "What do you want?"

He chuckled . "I just arrived from a long flight . I saw that Dan left without you . Maybe we could grab some coffee?"

"I don"t have time for this . " Madeline Song was irritated . Something about this guy gets on her nerves everytime she sees him .

"The café I know makes a mean cup of coffee . You should really try it . It"s rare for me to see you like this . Could you at least leave me some face this time?" He had a pleading look on his face .

She looked around and found people murmuring around them . Their interaction and Captain Long"s uniform did not sit well with them .

"Why not take a random flight attendant? They seem more like your type . " She had sarcasm in her voice .

"Why would I take out a stranger when I can bring someone I know?" He had a sly smile .

Taking that the buzzing sounds of gossips were getting louder, Madeline Song sighed and started walking . As she did, she uttered without looking back at him, "Just this once . "

Something that people need to understand about her is that even if she splurges on shopping, even if she is a total spoiled brat, and even if her s.e.xual preference is not common, she remains a good person . If she is not, she could have blackmailed Verdan Zhou ages ago .

As they settled themselves on the farthest table, a smiling pretty waitress came immediately .

"Young Master Long, should we serve your usual blueberry in oolong tea?"

"Yes . " He pursed his lips in a subtle smile .

"And for the Miss?" The waitress eyed the curvy woman whom the captain brought for the first time .

Madeline Song detected a bit of hostility in her eyes . She furrowed her brows and eyed the menu held by the waitress . "How can I order anything with you holding onto the menu?"

Madeling Song would have found the woman attractive if she had not been glared at the moment she sat in their café .

The waitress was embarra.s.sed and redeemed her professional self . She handed the menu and patiently waited for the customer to place her order .

When the waitress left them, Madeline Song raised her right brow as she eyed him .

"You took me here saying that the coffee is good, yet your regular order is tea?"

Long Yun chuckled . "Alright . You got me there . Actually, I dislike drinking coffee . "

She frowned . "How do you survive long flights then?" She believes that busy people cannot live their lives without coffee .

He had a bright smile . "Blueberry tea . " His smile even widened thinking that this woman is starting to get interested in his work .

"Oh . . . dam*, I should"ve tried it too . " She had a bit of regret . She always liked trying new things .

He laughed . "You can try mine . " His eyes were seductive .

"Ah . . . nah . . . If their coffee is good, I don"t mind coming back . " She brought out her phone .

As her face turned into a frown, Long Yun was bothered .

"Something wrong?"

She shook her head . "Just not a lucky day in the market . "

He knew she was talking about the stock market . However, instead of trading, he limited himself on being an investor .

"Miss Song . "

"Hmmm?"

Before he could continue, the waitress came with their drinks . She mustered every bit of her conscience not to poison the drink .

Madeline Song eyed her suspiciously then took a sip of her mocha affogato . Surprisingly, it was good .

"Dude! This is nice!"

Long Yun was smiling at her expression but then frowned when she addressed him .

"Miss Song . " He repeated .

"Hmm?" She was still sipping her drink .

"I realized something at the Zhou"s wedding . "

"Oh yeah? What is it?" She wiped some foam off her face .

"I never knew that love is contagious, until I proved it with you . "
