Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1069

"Wow! It has been a long time since I heard your voice,"

said Shawn, not minding her attitude, "And you're still the same cold-hearted girl I used to know." He laid back on a hammock strung between two large maple trees.

"Get to the point please. Don't waste my time!" Yuri's voice was getting colder by the moment.

Much to her surprise, however, Shawn didn't freak out as he always did before. If anything, he sounded eerily friendly. "Just tell me where you are right now!"

Although Yuri was surprised at Shawn's reaction, she didn't want to talk to him right at this moment. She was having a quiet moment to herself by the sea, waves slapping over her feet again and again, while the sun sank over the horizon. Never did she imagine that she would one day enjoy such a peaceful time on a beach.

"I'm in Green Island now," Yuri replied briskly. She had dropped all the comings and goings between them. They were too familiar to each other and all the people regarded them as quarrelsome lovers. But now, she could finally shrug off all these thoughts. She thought she would live and die in a battlefield until the very end, but now that she had made it this far, she felt contented.

After hanging up the call, she raised her head to the sun low in the west. She was no longer young as well, but she had never felt so relaxed before.

This was life. No matter how good it was in her youth, all she ever wanted was a peaceful life. A peaceful life was a constant desire that every human being had in common.

However, life turned out to be more colorful than Yuri could ever imagine. In fact, she never expected that such a moment would come in her life. She had taken for granted the fact that she was going to end up placidly alone.

The next day, beyond her wildest imaginations, Shawn showed up in front of her with a bouquet of red roses in his hands when she was strolling along the sea. The roses were so vibrant and bright she felt as though it would burn her eyes. Needless to say, she was incredibly touched. Another thing she did not expect to see was how happy she would be to receive roses from this man. In that very moment, she felt as though her life was complete. Nothing could make her regret anything in this life.

When night came, the sky was black tranquility married to a poetry of stars. The people of A City would be soaking in a life of luxury and dissipation. At night, the city would come to life anew, rich and colorful. Although most people would seek to relieve the exhaustion accumulated in the daytime, a minority of them would look for fun and excitement.
