Everyone in Chen Li city knew that the well known singer gu meili married a wealthy family and have three children.

However today, she died because of a car crash and have fatal brain injuries.

Today was the funeral for her, the bei family household was filled with guests

The bei family buried Gu meili in changnian cemetery.

Bei ruolan was wearing a black dress and her black waist-length hair was freed. She stood on the doorstep with a blank expession.

Bei zhuang, gu meili husband was worried of his youngest daughter. He was not worried of his two sons because he know that both of them can handle it but bei ruolan was the closest to gu meili and she was on the verge of breakdown when she received the news.

"Zhengyu, rujian, did your sister say anything?" Bei zhuang asked his eldest and second son.

Bei zhengyu cold face also revealed anxiety. "No she did not"

Bei rujian look at bei ruolan direction. She suffered a huge blow when the doctor said that their mother can't be save again.

"Dad, don't you think mom accident was not merely a car crash?"bei rujian pointed out.

Bei zhuang face look a bit scary that even both the sons and the guests shivered.

Bei zhuang was a handsome and gentle man but seeing him like this made them worried. He love gu meili so much and have pursue her for years but she died because of a car crash.

"I know. She is a public figure and also a wife of a wealthy family, who didn't want to replace her?" Bei zhuang eyes flashed with hatred.

"A few days ago, an actress delivered herself to me, *****. Do you think I don't know that many people were eyeing to the empty position beside me?" Bei zhuang glance at his sons.

Bei zhengyi and bei rujian froze. Indeed, the bei family company, bei group was a large empire that hold most of china's funds. If someone become their step-mother and their father's new wife, they can enjoy the riches happily without worries.

Bei zhuang walked away coldly and went upstairs to his and her wife bedroom. He stared at gu meili dresses in the closet for a long, long, long time.

-------

Bei zhengyu and bei rujian look at their father's departing figure. His words made them stunned.

"Do you thinl we will have a step-mother?" Bei rujian asked to his elder brother.

Bei zhengyu pursed his lips. "I don't think so. Dad and mom love are strong. He won't find anyone to replace her, but I don't know how long he will stay like that"

Bei rujian heard him and sighed. He smiled to the guests occasionally as he glance at bei zhengyu in the corner of his eye.

Bei ruolan who was quiet for a long time walked to the empty garden. she gazed at the flowers that her mother planted. its blooming.

mom, your flowers are blooming...you have been waiting for these moment. but why? why did you leave us so early?

"mom....everyone want to see you, they misses you, they want you to release new songs"

she squatted down and cried silently.

time passed,

a tall handsome man stood behind a tall tree, he have been there even before the funeral started. he stare at the woman who was crying and saying things as if her mother can go back alive.

rong longwei eyes locked on the woman. they have never acquainted with each other before but Gu meili was a bestfriend of his mother, Fu nianzu. she often bring bei ruolan to their mansion for play when she's kid. she was a bright girl and was the closest one to gu meili, today event impacted her heavily.

"bei ruolan.....your face...its making me annoyed" rong longwei mumbled. he turned around and left the garden.

"bro, what did you do in there? its been so long! come on, unce bei is waiting for you!" rong zihao called out.

rong longwei followed him to the mansion. bei zhuang was talking to rojg mingyu and fu nianzu.

"are you and your children fine? they must be sad" fu nianzu clutched her chest. her bestfriend passing away was a huge blow to her, what's more her family.

bei zhuang bitterly smile, "me and the sons are fine but xiao ruo didn't speak at all. its making us worried"

rong mingyu patted his shoulders. losing a wife is like losing half of your life. bei ruolanwas an exact replica of gu meili, it must have been hard for him. seeing his daughter that look alike like his wife.

"don't worry. I'm sure that child can handle it"

bei zhuang nodded. "I hope so"

while they were chatting, bei ruolan who finished crying un the garden wiped her tears using a napkin. she walked to the courtyard, looking absent-minded

rong longwei and rong zihao stopped their tracks when they saw bei ruolan.

while in the mansion, the courtyard can be seen fron the living room as there are a glass door sliding that was opend wide. the rong family and Bei zhuang and the rest of the guests saw bei ruolan and the two young master of the rong family in the courtyard. however it seems bei ruolan didn'r realize these two were watching her.

"which flowers is the youngest one?

which sincerity is the truth?

which clothes is the prettiest?

I wonder how the world went on and on like waves~

who is it that brings support?

Oceans and seas, its a beautiful thing"

the beautiful and melodious voice made people drowned on her song.

its one of Gu meili's popular songs....

rong longwei and zihao heard her singing peacefully as she stood facing a beautiful scenery.

bei ruolan body was slim and when the wind blows her, the loose dress showed the perfect curves of her body. her slender long legs shape was seen as the wind blows.

"each of us, hugging each other.....it filled me with warmth" Bei ruolan finished singing with a tear trickling down her cheek.

the heartbreaking scene made everyone gasped.

bei ruolan shoulders trembled. she covered her face and wiped her tears away. that song was the last one she sang for her mother. she can't be sad anymore. she can't bring back her loving and gentle mother alive.

rong zihao was perplexed seeig the scene. from the corner of his eye, he caught his brother's stunned look. whoaa, its the first time he ever saw such an gentle expression on him! is he touched by bei ruolan singing? but even a top notched singer in the industry didn't move him.....

bei ruolan turned around and was shocked seeing two tall handsome.man was staring at her and she look at the sliding door that was widely opened. she finally realized that everyone was watching her.

"I didn't know miss bei is good at singing" rong zihao praised with a smile.

"I didn't. I still made mistakes when I sang earlier" bei ruolan politely smiled and answered.

polite but cold, humble but arrogant. elegant and respectful but a demoness, harmless but fierce, this is what everyone in chen li city called Bei ruolan. Rong zihao and rong longwei also thought that.

bei ruolan didn't talk to them and just standing there, looking peacefully.

"president rong, I hope you can think it through of what I requested from you" Bei ruolan said without looking at them.

rong longwei cold face softened, "my answer is yes"

bei ruolan eyes widened. she turned to him with her mouth formed an 'O'. "really? you have really think it through? no take backs?"

"yes. since I said yes, you can go back and work to the company" rong longwei said before turning away and walked into the mansion. rong zihao followed him even he want to know though what is it.

bei ruolan eyes lit up. with rong longwei said yes, she can terminate her contract from Shadow entertainment and signed a contract to Cheng entertainment! she thought that the man would refuse her when she heard him in the garden.

he said that my face annoyed him, but didn't he still agreed? bei ruolan was pleased. the memory of her meeting rong longwei in a cafe flashed.

-flashback-

bei ruolan sat on the corner and was sipping a cup of cappuccino latte. she was wearing a yellow dress and her hair was tied into a ponytail.

before her, sat a handsome man wearing his usual black suit. the cup of coffee remained untouched as his eyes scanned the exquisitely beautiful woman infront of him.

"miss bei, what is the matter?" he leaned on his seat.

bei ruolan smiled. "president rong, I have a request for you"

interested, rong longwei raised his brows. "hm? what is it?"

"can you help me terminate my contract with my company?" bei ruolan really want to get out from that hell. rong longwei is the only hope she left.

"why would the beauty bei want to get out from shadow entertainment?" rong longwei asked.

bei ruolan adjusted her seat, "my resources is limited and that bast*rd is taking revenge because I don't agree to his request"

rong longwei didn't agree instantly but continue asking. "miss bei, your boss can give you whatever you want why did you reject his request?"

bei ruolan pursed her lips. "I don't want to become his mistress"

"oh, so its like that? tell me, what will I get if I sign you to mine?"

"I'm a top singer but trampled by that bast*rd, if I went to yours, not only shadow entertainment shares dropped your company will also have a top singer"

rong longwei was amazed by her braveness. there are artists seeking for him but their request was that they willingly sold their body but bei ruolan didn't, he have never talked to an artists but bei ruolan was an exception.

"please, I really want to get out from that company. you can give me your answer soon. I need to go, president rong" Bei ruolan bowed down before scurried away to her car.

-end of flashback-

the funeral came to its end and one by one the guests boarded their cars.

night falls and the bei family just finished dinner and was restingg in the living room.

the atmospehere was good as bei ruolan and bei rujian was playing game consoles with their curses coming through.

"Dad, I heard your talk with uncle and auntie. will you remarry?" bei rujian who lost to his little sister turned to his father that sat on a sofa with bei zhengyu.

both bei rujian and bei ruolan was sutting on the fur carpet, cross-legged.

"No I don't. it will be unfair for the three of you and your mother" bei zhuang answered gently as he took a sip of the herb tea.

the bei siblings exchanged glances. bei zhengyu spoke up. "its alright dad. we also don't want a step-mother"

Bei zhuang smiled at his words. the atmosphere become even more lively and they retured to their resspective rooms when the clock ticks 9 o'clock.

in bei ruolan room,

bei ruolan took a shower again as she want to soothe her mind.

wearing her black nightgown, bei ruolan sat up on her fluffy massive purple bed.

her cellphone rang when she sat and her brows raised when she saw the called id. its rong longwei.

she picked it up and a deep melodious voice came through,

"Did I disturb you?"

"no, I don't have anything to do anyway"

rong longwei on the other side of the line smiled. "you have stated your conditions and I agreed but in one condition"

bei ruolan was curious, "what is it?"

"be my woman and you will get whatever resources you want"

he thought that she was stunned but shortly after a scream almost destroyed his eardrums.

"ah ah ah ah! Is this a dream?!" bei ruolan can't believe it and screamed. thank god her room soundproofs was good and no one hear her.

rong longwei was making a phone call in the livng room, his parents and siblings is still there and when the loud scream was heard, all of them look at him with a frown.

"did I just heard xiao ruo's voice?" Rong qiuyue, the youngest child asked. she was bestfriends with bei ruolan so of course she could know that voice.

"since when longwei is close with xiao ruo?" its rong mingyu who asked in confusion. the loud scream they heard was an excited tone.

bei ruolan on the other hand covered her mouth in disbelief. "god! rong longwei are you serious?!"

"I am" rong longwei voice were gentle like water that even his family weres shocked.

"but I don't want to bei with a man who did not love me" bei ruolan excited voice turned dissapointed.

rong longwei chuckled. he went to his bedroom upstaird and shut the door. "who said that I didn't?"

bei ruolan again was stunned. what's with this sudden confession?! my poor heart can't handle it!

"ohh, are you giving back my confession?" when the reporters asked bei ruolan who did she have a crush on, she answered that she love rong longwei. ahhh, did he return back my feelings?!

"are you going to agree or not?" rong longwei couldn't help but smile. "we won't have a break up and the seat as 'madam rong' is yours"

bei ruolan blushed heavily. she can't believe it!!!

"my answer is yes! so are we together now?" bei ruolan was excited. he have the big boss on her back! isn't that amazing!

rong longwei held his laughter. "of course, we should change the way we address each other"

bei ruolan eyes lit up. "then from now on I will call you 'darling', 'baby', 'dear'! choose one!"

"you can call me anything" rong longwei didn't know since when he talk to someone for a long time and even laughed and smiled.

both of them continue to chat and rong longwei told her that she didn't need to go to her previous company,starting from tomorrow, she would be an artiste of cheng entertainment and she can report to work tomorrow morning. they bade goodbye when it almost reached midnight.

bei ruolan slept and fall to a very sweet dream.

the next day, she was awake at 7 o'clock and took a shower. she put on a grey dress and tied her hair into a bun. she wear a pair of silver heels and went out from her room.

she rushed downstairs and ate her breakfast.

"hey, did you have something with rong longwei?" bei rujian asked as he put on his cufflinks.

bei ruolan almost chocked. "what? no no no no" she can't tell anyone first as she want their relationship stable.

bei rujian look at her suspiciously. he shrugged and sat on the livng room.

while bei ruolan who finished breakfast, kiss her brothers' and father's cheek before she boarded her bugatti.
