"Miss Zan, Mr. De, are you both ready?!" The stylist asked.
"Yes. I am." De Longjun came out of the dressing room.
They were getting ready for photoshoot.
"Please sit down Mr. De. Miss Zan would be here shortly."
"Okay." De Longjun took a magazine from the table and began to read it.
The stylist left the room to check the photoshoot spot.
"Hello!! Is anyone there?! Could you help me?!" From inside, Zan Guiying asked.
De Longjun looked up.
"My zipper is stuck. Could someone..."
Hearing her voice, the assistant of stylist ran towards the changing room.
Let me. De Longjun silently instructed her.
"Understood sir." She smiled and bowed. Then left the place.
De Longjun slowly walked towards the changing room and opened the curtain...
Inside, Zan Guiying is trying to zip up her dress.
"I should have made one of them stay with me!!" She muttered.
De Longjun silently walked and stood behind her. Her entire white back to his view.
"Ahh!! You came. Help me!! It got stuck!!"
"Should I really help?!" He lowered his head and whispered in her ear.
Zan Guiying looked up. "Aahh!!" She screamed, her hands loosened.... Causing the wedding dress to fall.
"Oh my!!" She grabbed her dress, tightening it around her chest.
"Sorry!! I was calling for the stylist!!" She got flustered.
"There was no one outside." He answered.
"Oh...." What should I do???
"Let me help you." De Longjun grabbed her dress.
"It's..... It's alright....!! I can still call for someone!!" She blushed.
"Miss Zan. Now I am here.... Let me help you." He asserted.
"Okay..." She nodded. Then pulled up her dress.
De Longjun smiled. "Your hair..... Let me..." He slowly swiped her hair, adjusting it to the front.... Without taking his hands from her shoulder, his index finger followed through her backlines, stopping where it stuck.
Zan Guiying's hands tightened.... She trembled.... Her breath quickened... She looked up.... But in there, her soon to be husband's face.... It showed nothing... He must be doing it without noticing...
De Longjun pulled up the slide. "It's really stuck. Wait a minute..."
"Haa.... Okay....." She breathed her voice.
De Longjun got on one of his knees and moved his mouth towards the zipper.....
He pulled the slide with his teeth, 'accidently' rubbing his lips along her waist...
Zan Guiying grabbed the table with her one hand and looked back.
"It's done....." Giving her a small, accidental peck, De Longjun stood up and pulled the zipper up.
"Thank you....." She muttered.
Her cheeks, neck and chest area was reddend....
"Do you need anymore help?!" He asked.
She shook her head.
"Then I will be outside." He nodded and left. Touching his lips along the way.....
Zan Guiying came outside.
"Miss. Zan, Mr. De. Can we go now?! Your car is ready." Secretary Li came.
"Mm." Both of them nodded....
***
The photoshoot went as they planned. Their cloths were also changed from time to time.
"How is your feet?!" During break time, De Longjun asked.
"I feel fine. I just have to pose wearing it." She looked at her feet, wearing high heels. She moved her hands to remove the heels.
"Let me help you!" De Longjun grabbed her hands. Grabbing her feet, he removed the heels and stood up.
"Thank you." She smiled.
"Hey!! Click it!! It's a nice pose!!" From far, the photographers took photos...
***
"Yingying, when are you going to be back?!" Bo Ehuang asked.
"Mommy!! We are returning now." Zan Guiying hung up the call.
"Come with me. I will drop you." De Longjun offered.
"Mm." She nodded....
Both of them walked towards the car. De Longjun opened its door. The car started....
Sitting on it for sometime, she began to nod off.
"Feeling sleepy?!" He asked.
"Mhm..." Through her half closed eyes, she looked at him.
He slowly pulled her towards him.... She leaned..... Her head on his shoulder, and began to sleep....
***
"Miss Zan!! Miss Zan!!" De Longjun gently shook her.
"Hmm..... Five more minutes....." She muttered.
"You're reached home...." Caressing her hair, he gently reminded her.
Home?? "Hmmm..." She stretched and looked up. Am I sleeping on his shoulder? "Sorry. I fell asleep on your shoulder. Did I hurt you?!" She asked.
"No." He shook his head.
"Then bye..... Goodnight...." She opened the car's door.
"Goodnight." De Longjun smiled.
The car rolled again.... She looked at it until it disappeared from her eyes....
She turned and walked towards her home. Why there is no light? Is there any power cut? She looked around. No. She opened her purse and took out her phone. She dialled police and slowly opened the door....
'POPP!!!'
"Aahhh!!" Zan Guiying screamed.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!"
The lights were on, and in the room, stood her family members.
"Mommy!! Daddy!! Grandpa!! You prepared a surprise for me?!" Zan Guiying exclaimed.
"Yes!! Sister!! Happy birthday!!" Her siblings ran and hugged her.
"Thank you!!" She giggled.
"Happy birthday my daughter!!" Her parents hugged her next.
"Thank you!! Mommy!! Thank you daddy!!" She hugged them.
The last one was grandpa Zan. "Happy birthday my granddaughter."
"Thank you grandpa!!" She hugged him too.
"Yingying!! You know your birthday happened when you were abroad. So we couldn't celebrate it. And when you're back, we got busy with your marriage....." Zan Tengfei said.
"So we thought..... Why can't we give our cutie a surprise?! So we prepared it..... Do you like it?!" Bo Ehuang asked.
"I love it!!" She hugged her parents again.
"Then come and cut the cake!!" Grandpa Zan urged her.
"Hmm!!" Zan Guiying took the knife and cut the rainbow cake and shared with everyone.
"How does it taste?!" Bo Ehuang asked.
"It taste wonderful!! Did you make it?!" Zan Guiying asked.
"No. De Longjun bought it."
"Big brother Jun?!" She got surprised. "Does he know we are celebrating today?!"
"Yes." Her father answered.
"Then why didn't you invite him?!"
"Because we wanted to do it like this..... As a family....." Bo Ehuang answered.
"So what!! Are you not going to celebrate my birthday after my marriage?! I am not your daughter after getting married?!" She pouted.
"No. Dear... Actually.... We wanted to call De Longjun and his family. But he suggested this. Our family time. And you will be our daughter even after marriage..." Grandpa Zan caressed her hair.
"Hmmm..." She hugged them again. "Then I should share the cake....."
"Tomorrow, we are going to another place." Zan Tengfei said.
"Where?!" Zan Guiying asked.
"You will know tomorrow....." Bo Ehuang gave her another piece.
Next day, the whole family stood in front of Li Kexin's grave.....
