The Beautiful Man of Zahra

Lu Chen's Hearts

On the way there were no words spoken between the two, Lu Chen focused on staring at the road as his left hand clasped tightly onto Zahra's fingers. Until finally Lu Chen's car stopped at the edge of the river that was very familiar to Zahra.

Yes, Lu Chen took Zahra to the riverbank where he last met Jason Lu before finally being reunited ten years later. Zahra stared at the amazement of the river, already overgrown with his favorite sunflowers.

“How? Do you like it?.” Lu Chen asked as he brought Zahra closer to the riverbank.

“Very good Lu!.” Zahra was amazed by the beauty of the riverbank, until she forgot the problem between herself and Lu Chen.

“I prepared all this for my apology to you.” Lu Chen said, sincerely apologizing to Zahra.

Lu Chen then grabbed Zahra's hand, and said the words that touched Zahra.

“Flower, Wuxi Huani!.” Zahra's tears suddenly trickled down to hear Lu Chen's words that she was very much looking forward to. For nearly two months of her being stirred up because of Lu Chen, it finally paid off already with those words.

“I'm not the perfect man for you Flowers, there's still a lot I can't give you. Including my past that I have not told you all, one of which is Jia Li. But really it was all a lie, I was going to be betrothed to him but I cancelled everything and we had nothing to do with it. I swear!.” Lu Chen said that could make Zahra speechless.

“I purposely came here to explain to you, even though my schedule is very tight I tried to meet you. And it is I who beg you to forgive this short-lived me. I beg you!.” Lu Chen's request that Zahra can forgive herself.

Seeing Lu Chen Zahrapun's sincerity grabbed Lu Chen's waist and hugged him while crying out in tears. Zahra did not expect Lu Chen's extraordinary sacrifice of abandoning his overcrowded schedule as an artist just to explain the fake news about him.

Lu Chenpun who saw his lover was seen crying and replied by stroking Zahra's back to calm him down. Finally his attempt to catch up with Zahra was successful even with a hint of cunning wits.

At that time Xiao Feng who was assigned to watch Lu Chen 24 hours by Aaron Lu fell asleep in his room. It was all Lu Chen who had put a high dose of sleeping medicine into Xiao Feng's drink.

Early in the morning until noon was Lu Chen's schedule for choreography exercises. Lu Chen asked Xiao Feng to buy him some cold drinks at a nearby convenience store. And when Xiao Feng gave him all the cold drinks he had bought, he, Lu Chenpun took out a bottle of cold drink that he had opened and put sleeping pills into it and gave the bottle to Xiao Feng. And unsuspectingly Xiao Feng downed Lu Chen's drink and Xiao Feng fell asleep at night in the training room.

Lu Chen who saw the sleeping Xiao Feng immediately called someone through his phone.

“How? Have you taken care of everything?.” Lu Chen asked the person across the phone.

“Good!. I'll be heading to the airport this afternoon.” Lu Chen immediately packed up his equipment and escaped from the training room. Lu Chen was seen walking carefully so as not to be caught by CCTV.

On the banks of the river, two people were taking off their longings while staring at the beautiful scenery in the afternoon. With the position of Zahra resting her head on the shoulders of Lu Chen and Lu Chen who caressed & kissed the tender head of her lover once in a while.

“Lu, how did Xiao Feng fare?.” Zahra who had heard directly about Lu Chen had bullied Xiao Feng to get away from China.

“Then what about Jia Li? Does he know you're here?.” Zahra asked who was worried that Jia Li would act determinedly.

“You take it easy, I won't just shut up!. After he bullies me, I make sure his life won't be easy!. Especially until he bullies you, even my family will not let me!.” Firmly Lu Chen who would not let others harass him and Zahra.

“Lu, there's something I really want to ask you. How can you like me?. At that time, I was still the Zahra. Yes I mean you are “School Flower.” Tanya Zahra hesitantly to Lu Chen.

“Entaih! Maybe at that time you were using the use against me?.” Canda Lu Chen who was immediately struck with a small pinch on Lu Chen's waist by Zahra.

And Lu Chenpun grabbed Zahra's fingers and started to say seriously back.

“Love is unpredictable coming, maybe at that time you were the beautiful fairy God sent to me. And I am very grateful for the gift, because it is in accordance with my prediction that only you can make this heart touched. You can feel it yourself.” While putting Zahra's fingers on Lu Chen's chest, Zahra could feel Lu Chen's heartbeat that felt very fast beating.

And they looked at each other, so that they did not feel their lips meet each other. And that riverbank became a silent witness where Lu Chen revealed his entire heart to Zahra. At that time Zahra and Lu Chen were on the bank of the river until nightfall.

Finally Zahra was ushered by Lu Chen to his parents' doorstep. Zahra still felt so longed for Lu Chen, it felt hard to let her lover go. But how else would it be that it was already night, Lu Chen was worried that Zahra's parents would worry about him because of the permission since morning. And Lu Chenpun still had to rest because he still felt Jet lag because it was not long until Jakarta, he immediately met Zahra.

Zahrapun gave a friendly kiss on Lu Chen's lips, a sign of separation from him. Lu Chenpun immediately returned to his car, but suddenly there was a hand that hugged him from behind. That hand was Zahra's hand that had not been able to let Lu Chen off. The suddenly spoiled Zahra made Lu Chen happy, because finally his lover was able to be honest with his heart.

“I'll pick you up tomorrow for the office and I'll be with you all day. Hows it?. Are you happy?.” Lu Chen's offer of instantly getting a nod from Zahra without letting go of his embrace to Lu Chen.

On the other side was Aaron Lu who was staring at the nyalang Xiao Feng who was caught sleeping in the training room.

“Can you explain?.” Asked Aaron who was starting to be unable to contain his anger.

“Sorry I was not aware Sir, suddenly I felt very sleepy and finally I fell asleep. Forgive me!.” Xiao Feng replied as he was, and it was true that he had accidentally fallen asleep.

“Our clients have already paid dearly for this! How do you explain about the penalty we received?.” Aaron put on his matted face because in Lu Chen's absence he had to pay some penalties to some clients who used Lu Chen as his model.

And actually Aaron knew Xiao Feng was innocent in this matter. He knew very well how his nephew Lu Chen, if he had wished could not be prevented by anyone.

Xiao Feng who was hit by Lu Chenpun could only lower his head and rub his neck against Aaron.
