Lin Xiao Yu had been incredibly busy lately, spending day and night in the Training Room, preparing for a significant dance competition that was about to unfold in England. She meticulously refined every movement—leaps, spins, and bends—striving for a fluid perfection. Sweat soaked through one training outfit after another, yet her eyes burned with fierce determination. 0
 
Lu Zean learned about this from a friend and instantly felt inspired. He quietly opened his computer and booked a ticket on the same flight as Lin Xiao Yu, carefully planning his trip. He asked his instructor for a few days off under the pretense of a small excuse, and seeing his earnest expression, the instructor approved without further questions. 0
 
On the day of departure, Lu Zean arrived at the airport early, dragging his suitcase and hiding in a corner to watch Lin Xiao Yu check in. She stood tall in a simple sports outfit, her long hair neatly tied back in a ponytail, exuding an aura of grace and focus. She was engrossed in verifying her documents and didn’t notice the familiar gaze behind her. 0
 
The plane landed smoothly in England, and Lin Xiao Yu headed straight to the venue to familiarize herself with the environment, fully immersing herself in rehearsals. Lu Zean checked into a hotel near the competition venue. After figuring out her schedule, he went ahead to buy a large bouquet of her favorite Baby's Breath and carefully selected a delicate Crystal Ballet Figurine, symbolizing her brilliance on stage. 0
 
On the day of the finals, the venue was packed. Lin Xiao Yu wore a stunning white dance dress, moving gracefully on stage like an ethereal fairy, earning thunderous applause from the audience. As she took her bow and exited the stage, Lu Zean held flowers and gifts with a beaming smile, quickly making his way against the crowd towards her. The moment Lin Xiao Yu stepped off the stage and looked up to see Lu Zean, she froze for a moment before her eyes glistened with tears of joy and surprise. "What are you doing here? You didn’t say anything beforehand! You caught me completely off guard!" 0
 
Lu Zean handed her the fragrant Baby's Breath bouquet; its sweet scent enveloped her senses. His gaze was filled with affection as he smiled and said, "My great dancer, how could I possibly miss such an important moment? If I told you in advance, it wouldn’t be much of a surprise. I’ve been secretly planning this for quite some time just to see your astonished face." With that, he gently pulled her into an embrace, resting his chin on top of her head as if pouring all his longing from these past days into that hug. 0
 
Around them, dancers and staff cast envious glances while some familiar friends exchanged playful looks and whistled teasingly. Buried in Lu Zean's embrace, Lin Xiao Yu felt her cheeks flush. It took her a moment to regain composure as she playfully punched his solid chest and laughed through her tears: "You sly guy! You kept this from me so well—flight details, itinerary—there wasn’t even a hint! I really was completely clueless!" 0
 
Lu Zean took hold of her small hand and kissed it lightly before playfully brushing her nose with his finger. "If I had told you earlier, it would have ruined the surprise. I watched you shine on stage; you were incredible! No wonder I chose you." 0
 
As they walked out of the venue together, a cool breeze swept through the streets of England, carrying with it an exotic charm. The vintage street lamps gradually lit up along their path, casting a warm yellow glow that seemed to create a romantic pathway just for them. Lu Zean wrapped his arm around Lin Xiao Yu’s shoulders and leaned close to whisper in her ear: "I’m taking you out for a grand meal to reward you for all your hard work during this time—my great contributor." His voice was sweetly teasing, making Lin Xiao Yu’s ears turn red. 0
 
They entered a quaint English restaurant adorned with intricately carved furniture and classic candle holders; the atmosphere was elegant and serene. Lu Zean acted like a true gentleman as he carefully pulled out Lin Xiao Yu’s chair and even shielded her from bumping into the table corner before taking the menu to order Wellington Steak, Creamy Mushroom Soup, and exquisite English Dessert. 0
 
During dinner, Lu Zean continuously served Lin Xiao Yu food, cutting the steak into even pieces and dipping them in sauce before offering them to her lips. Watching her enjoy every bite brought him joy as he smiled warmly: "Eat more! You’ve lost so much weight during this competition; you need to regain your strength." 0
 
Feeling shy under his gaze, Lin Xiao Yu took a bite of steak and mumbled through her mouthful: "It’s not just that; it’s all the pressure from the competition! But now that you’re here, my appetite has definitely improved." 0
