White Roses Dyed Blood Red

The next day, Yaorui woke up the same time as usual and headed to the gym with the one and only, An Samuel. They were the only ones there so far and enjoyed their alone time together splendidly.

When other students began to trickle in, they quickly finished up and left the building hand in hand.

Although their matching uniforms were subtle and less noticeable, it didn't take much for the genius students at their school to take notice.

On her right c.h.e.s.t was a pocket where her folded handkerchief was tucked in nicely in the shape of half a heart.

On Samuel's left c.h.e.s.t was a handkerchief of the same red colour that was also folded in a semi-heart that faced her direction, creating a whole heart.

When the monorail arrived at the dining hall, they hustled off and made their way into the warmth of the building.

Her friends were already seated there, including Hu Angli.

She felt Samuel stiffen up next to her, his hand gripped her's ever so slightly tighter.

"I can ask him to leave if you want,"

"No that's okay, it's just the aftershock,"

"Are you sure?"

"Yea, I'll have to confront him someday soon anyway, better now than never," he paused for a bit, "Actually, never sounds really good,"

She laughed in response and led him to the table.

"Yaorui! Hurry up and order your breakfast! We've already ordered ours," Song Gebao urged her as she sat down side by side with Samuel.

"Right away, boss," She replied to Gebao, "What do you want?" Yaorui turned to Samuel.

"Whatever you order would be amazing," She giggled as Samuel pressed his lips to her cheek.

She proceeded to choose a few healthy options that would help Samuel recover to his peak, not forgetting to allow one dessert for both of them to share.

After placing down her order, she finally seemed to notice the tense atmosphere at the table.

The cause of the tense air was a staring contest between her boyfriend and Hu Angli. She felt Samuel's grip on her hand tighten to the point that tears were brought to her eyes.

Gently, Yaorui tapped him on the shoulder with her other hand, successfully bringing Samuel's attention back to her. She gestured to their hands and looked up at him with her teary eyes.

"Ah-I'm sorry, Rui'er! It won't happen again!" Samuel quickly let go of her hand.

He clenched and unclenched his hand as if not believing what he had just done. His face morphed into a look of disbelief and confusion.

"It's alright Samuel-ah, it was just a mistake,"

"But if I do it again?"

"You won't, I trust you,"

Samuel smiled and took her hand once again, "Whatever Rui'er says is true," She giggled in response.

But little did Yaorui know, something much worse was going to happen.

Meanwhile, three "single" souls gazed bitterly at the two couples in front of them.

While Yaorui and Samuel were having there couple's time, Ran Jiexu and Song Gebao were too, having their own couple's time.

The "three single" people glared bitterly at the two overly affectionate couples. These three people were none other than Hu Angli, Lu Sheng Rong, and Mu Jian Nu, who had just recently been taken of the Li family's list of enemies.

These three singles were unaware of the reason their stomachs were aching so badly. It was either they were hungry, being fed to much dog food, or drinking too much vinegar.

Whatever it was, it was too much for them to bear.

While they w.h.i.n.ed and pouted, the other students were abuzz with a surprising fact that had just been confirmed.

The Li family Princess, Li Yaorui was in a relationship with the newbie, An Samuel!

Many of Yaorui's admirers cried while her fans celebrated their idol's newfound happiness.

Of course, there was the other forty-ish percent preparing to either fight the love rival or defend their idol from a potential threat to her.

Hmph! Want to hurt their idol!? DREAM ON!

This news quickly spread outside of the school's boundaries and soon enough, Samuel was revealed to be part of a family of a multi genius Japenese family.

There were multiple hate comments on the internet claiming that either Samuel or Yaorui, were un compatible with each other. The reason being one was better than the other.

It took both a lot of effort and self-restraint to hold themselves back from getting back at the users insulting the other partner.

But of course, Long Ao being the overprotective brother he is, immediately ordered a few talented hackers (though not as skilled as Gebao) to take down the hateful comments directed to his precious little sister.

A certain doting boyfriend was quite pleased with Long Ao's actions, not minding all the hate that was directed at him. He did not mind the fact that Long Ao did not assist him, he would've made the same action if it came down to it.

All he did was keep Yaorui away from the social media platforms and pamper her to no end.

He was starting to really like school, though the inconvenient living accommodations were not up to standards.

He knew for a fact that Ran Jiexu wholeheartedly agreed with him.

The next few days went on like this, and neither Yaorui nor Samuel had made it official to the world. Although the school and all of it's residents are very much aware of their relationship status.

. . . . . .

Two days after returning to school, it was the Chinese New Year break.

While students rushed around the dormitory, gathering up their things and preparing for the two week holiday, Samuel and Yaorui were enjoying some cuddle time while they studied.

They were going to take off the day after tomorrow to avoid crowded transportations and traffick.

Her younger sister, Li Anshi, was going to be returning to the entertainment world after the break, meaning that she will no longer be going to school with her and her brother, Long Ao.

Her friends would be assisting her in decorating the Li family home as well as planning the new year party.

But tonight she had another event to attend to.

She was invited to attend a formal reception for a company that was launching a new auto-driving car or vehicle.

Yaorui was excited for tonight, she had a big surprise planned and couldn't wait to tell her perfect boyfriend tonight.

It wasn't very often that she was able to surprise him, but she was one hundred percent sure that she would succeed this time!

Yaorui giggled quietly to herself.

"What's so funny?"

"N-nothing,"

Samuel gave her a suspicious look before turning back to his textbook.

"Hehe," He shot her another look.

____________

Yaorui was wrapped up in Samuel's arms as he slept.

They were currently on their way to the event together, their chauffeur is none other than her one and only Uncle Tang!

She wore a traditional red Chinese dress with golden dragons embroidered into it and had her hair done up by her stylist.

Samuel wore a matching outfit consisting of a red brocade Tang dynasty jacket and black pants. He had his hair gelled back and his eyebrows trimmed to perfection.

It didn't take a lot to know that they were wearing matching outfits.

Yaorui felt Samuel pull her closer and bury himself in her neck.

"Are we there yet?" He asked.

"No, we're in line to get off right now,"

"Hmm...great," And on that note, Samuel proceeded to fall asleep once again.

Uncle Tang laughed at the young man that had claimed his young mistress's heart. Her face went red when she realized that someone else had heard what had happened between them.

"Samsam~! We're here~!"

"Mmm, five minutes,"

"Sammy~!"

Samuel began to w.h.i.n.e when Yaorui started to shove him off her.

. . . . . . . .

Camera lights flashed as one after another car pulled up. Reporters screamed and yelled to gain recognition and material worthy of the front page.

Finally, the person, or should I write, people, that all the reporters were waiting for arrived.

The chauffeur exited the car and proceeded to open the back door.

A dashing young man stepped out dressed in a traditional red brocade jacket and black pants celebrating the new year.

This young man possessed a face that everyone could now recognize as An Samuel, the rumoured boyfriend, of the infamous Li. Yao. Rui.

"Mister An! Look this way, please!"

"Can you clarify your relationship with the first young miss of the Li Family with us?!"

"How did you meet Miss Li!?"

"What are your thoughts on the rumours going around regarding you and Miss Li?!"

While reporters clamoured to get an interview with him, An Samuel expressed no emotions and blatantly ignored the loud bunch of people. That is up until the point Yaorui stepped out of the vehicle.

Almost instantly, an adoring smile spread across his face as he held out his hand to Yaorui.

She, in turn, accepted Samuel's hand and they made their way to the entrance together hand in hand, but just before they entered the building, Yaorui stopped. Jolting Samuel to a sudden stop as well.

She held up a hand and waited for everyone to be silenced. And just as she expected, she was soon met with closed mouths and curious eyes.

"I'd like to make an announcement!" She smiled brilliantly.

"I am dating An Samuel!" She held their hands up proudly.
