Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1246

"Oh Maggie, we will get separated tomorrow. Ah! Please don't forget that my feelings for you is higher than the sky and deeper than the sea. I love you, even more than I can put into words."

At the top-class VIP room of the most luxurious entertainment center in M City, 'Living In Cloud, ' a man was singing the song, "More Than I Can Say", after he expressed his love to Maggie. Unfortunately, his shrill, discordant voice butchered the song and was incredibly unpleasant to the ears of the listeners.

"Maggie, now do you know how I feel about you?" The man continued to disgust everybody with his singing.

Maggie Du spat the straw out of her mouth and nodded. "Yes, I know. And it makes me want to throw up! Excuse me, people. I have to go to the washroom." She stood up to walk to the washroom, barely managing to restrain herself from bursting out laughing. Suddenly, the jeering laughter of everyone else in the room filled the air, and that man turned to Maggie with a sore aggrieved face.

"Maggie... You have broken my heart..."

"Haha!"

Maggie laughed artificially and closed the door behind her. This was the best entertainment center in M City, with top-level facilities and state-of-the-art sound-proof system. Before Maggie had closed the door, the music was blaring out of the VIP Room, but shortly afterwards, she could only hear the soft, muted music in the corridor.

Maggie looked around the long corridor, feeling a bit light-headed from the two glasses of wine earlier on. She walked to the end of the corridor, swaying a little. After tonight, all of them would be allocated to different rural areas all over the country and there were no certainties as to when they would see each other in the same army regiment again. Since they would all go their separate ways, a few of them suggested that they go out and have some fun. Maggie had drunk one too many glasses of wine and this time even an entire tub of yoghurt wasn't going to help her recover.

"Excuse me," Maggie shook her heavy head and asked a waiter, "where is the washroom?"

The waiter pointed ahead with a polite smile. "Turn right at the exit passageway in the front and walk to the end."

Maggie nodded. "Thanks." She walked towards the direction he pointed and finally found the washroom.

The soft sound of the water eased her annoyance. Maggie sobered up soon after washing her face with cold water. Luckily, her father had taught her how to drink from her early teenage years, which would explain how someone like her was still able to keep standing on her feet.

Maggie raised her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror. The dim, soft light in the washroom made her reddened face even more charming. Her father had often said that if she didn't have his eyes and character, he would have thought that he had brought somebody else's daughter home. Maggie was quite different from most kids her age. Both of her parents were ordinary people, but she had inherited the best genes from her parents and her face was as beautiful as a seductress'.

She tilted her head from side to side and stroked her hair flirtatiously in front of the mirror. Then she said to herself, "Maggie, you have been allocated to the S Army. Tomorrow, you will meet your dream lover. Oh, darling! Are you happy now? You must be really happy, right? Aha!"

The sound of her laughter resounded across the restroom. Someone was about to open the door to come in, but stopped out of fear and ran away from there.

After entertaining herself for a while, Maggie eyed herself down one last time in front of the mirror and turned to leave the washroom. The woman from earlier on had come back with a waitress to check what was going on inside the washroom. The waitress was taken by surprise when she saw Maggie walk out casually. She said to the woman beside her, "Perhaps she is just drunk."
