“I finally completed the final design and the client accepted the design after four rounds of edits. That’s great since it means that I can complete a design for a poster within 3 hours. I made 310 dollars today and this is the first time I earned more than 300 dollars in a day. (#^.^#)”

“It’s been a while since I last saw that man. I went to the school field on three occasions but I’ve yet to see him again. It might be too cold today. I wonder if he has noticed me. Hmm.. if only he would speak to me.”

Mo Yixuan frowned and his heart raced as he read through diary entries. He browsed through several more pages and found the next entry that mentioned him.

“A friend divulged his contact details to me, including his address and phone number. I tried adding his WeChat account but he didn’t respond. He must have assumed that I was just an online shop or a complete stranger, so I understand why he didn’t accept my request. Sigh… I wonder if I’ll ever see him again.”

“I must be crazy to have sent him a present. I guess he should have received it by now! I wonder if he will contact me. What should I do if he suddenly drops me a text? Should I tell him that it was love at first sight for me? Would he think that I’m insane for saying that? Would he think that I’m an easy woman?”

Mo Yixuan continued to flip through her diary entries.

“Jingjing said that I was tricked by him but I refuse to take her word for it. I truly don’t think that he would be that sort of man. I swore to myself that it would be the last time that I sent him a gift. I would definitely try to get over him if he doesn’t respond.”

Mo Yixuan felt a warm current spread across his heart.

This was the latest entry in her diary and that was written two days ago when she sent him a present.

Thankfully, he had reached out to her on that day or she would have been sorely disappointed.

He had thought about contacting her over the past few months, but he couldn’t get past the barriers he had erected in his heart.

He had gradually let down her guard because of her persistence.

“Thank you for appearing in my life, Yan Yan…” he thought as he closed her diary and placed it back in its original position.

He Xiyan emerged from the bathroom and she looked much shorter after changing out of her high-heeled boots to her bathroom slippers. She looked even smaller next to Mo Yixuan after that.

“Yixuan, would you like to take a shower?” she asked. Her voice was gentle and sweet to his ears.

He pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.

A brief look of panic flashed past her eyes and her heart immediately started to race.

She was so nervous that she didn’t know where to put her hands.

They were so close to each other that she quickly knew what was about to happen. He wanted to…

She shook her head.

No, they couldn’t be intimate with each other today.

“What’s wrong, Yan Yan…” Mo Yixuan asked when he noticed the nervousness in her eyes.

She blushed furiously as she whispered, “We…can’t do it today.”

Mo Yixuan didn’t know how to react.

He felt as though something hard had hit his head and he suddenly pursed his lips.

He gave her a gentle pat on the shoulder and looked down at her face that had turned red from nervousness.

“What’s wrong with today?” he asked even though he knew what she had meant earlier.

She continued to blush furiously as she looked down at her feet in embarrassment.

“My…period just came!” she said softly. She had just discovered that her period had come earlier when she had gone to the bathroom for a shower. Fortunately, they had returned to her flat or she would have felt even more embarrassed if she had stained the sofa in the restaurant.
