Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Standing approximately five feet away from Yue Ling was a man in his thirties. His hair was nicely combed back and was cleaned shaved. He wore black slacks with a dark gray turtleneck that snug tightly around his upper body. It allowed one to see his toned chest and arms.

One glance was all it took for anyone to see that he was a man attracted to the same gender.

On his face was a huge grin and glistening eyes that shone as brightly as the sun outside. He was utterly amazed that someone like the woman in front of him had such good eyes.

Especially since the dress was quite simple and not extravagant as the rest in the store.

"Miss, that dress is designed by De L'amour. It is a…"

His voice was not manly but soft. So soft that it could be mistaken for a woman.

He had only taken a few steps when the woman in front of him turned to look at him. When he saw her face better, he gasps in shock and was unable to finish his words.

"Oh. My. God."

His eyes widen with his mouth in shock and he spoke in perfect English. He could not believe what he was seeing and raise a hand to rub his eyes as if to make sure.

After a long minute passes by, he finally comes to term that that person in front of him is really the person he never thought to meet.

With this confirmation, he grins widely and giddies over like he was skipping over to the lovely woman.

"Miss Han, it is truly my greatest pleasure to finally meet you."

He giggles like a fangirl trying to contain his happiness meeting his idol. However, remembering where he was, he clears his throat and tries to keep a steady attitude.

The last thing he wants is to scare Yue Ling and have her run out thinking he is a crazy man.

"Can I assist you with anything today?"

Yue Ling was stunned by the man's many behaviors. However, knowing that he is friendly, she smiles a chuckle.

"It is my pleasure to meet you, Yang Yang."

The man named Yang Yang did not even get angry at how Yue Ling didn't address him formally. Instead, he felt like his heart was going to explode and he wanted to faint due to happiness.

He has been in the wedding industry for many years and has heard so many great things about Han Yue Ling. However, it was hard to meet her since she kept a low profile.

In the past, an old client had referred a friend to him, but he had been too busy planning other weddings, so he had to decline. It wasn't until later that he found out the friend he had declined was none other than Han Yue Ling. The supermodel he has been dying to meet at least once in his life.

Ever since he lost such a good opportunity, he had always regretted his reckless decision.

As for why he is here right now, he had flown back to Imperial upon receiving a phone call from his mother's friend, whom he could not decline to help.

Fortunately for him, he made a good decision. If he had not answered the phone call, he would have let another opportunity escape.

Composing his mind and posture, he walks a few more steps to stand next to Yue Ling.

"I am thrilled to know that Miss Han knows about me."

He turns to face the simple wedding dress and smiles embarrassingly.

"Do excuse my words just now. I feel so ashamed to have bragged about a dress as I know it. Especially when the designer of her is standing right in front of her."

His face flushes a shade of pink and he pats his chest as if to calm his heart.

"Miss Han, if you don't mind, may I ask why you are here?"

He had only been informed that he was meeting with his mother's friend. So how could Yue Ling be here too?

Unless…

Could it be that he had made a mistake somewhere and Yue Ling is here to terminate the contract of allowing him to sell her designs?

Yue Ling arched a brow in amusement at Yang Yang's reaction. However, she was also surprised by his question since she thought he would know the reason why she is here.

"No need for the formality. Yue Ling is fine."

She takes another look at the man before answering his question. It was then that she could confirm that he must have not heard or read the news about her.

"I—"

"Yang Yang!"

Before Yue Ling could further her words, Madam Lu exclaims from the other side of the mannequins. She walks over to the two adults and hugs the young man.

"My goodness child look at you. You are lovelier than the last time I saw you."

She takes a step back to look at him and sighs. She has watched him grow up and is well-aware that Yang Yang isn't like other boys.

He likes men and alongside his mother, she happens to be one of his biggest supporters.

She even treats him like a daughter than a son.

Yang Yang's face turned redder hearing Madam Lu's words and how she was treating him. He is happy to see her too, but Yue Ling is also here.

What if she finds him disgusting when she finds out that he likes men?

"Aunt Lu, there's another guest here."

Seeing him turn bashful, Madam Lu smiles before laughing. She lightly flicks his forehead and knew what he was thinking about.

"Aiya, why are you thinking so much? Ah Ling will not find you weird."

She turns to look at Yue Ling and smiles.

"This is Yang Yang, he is the owner of Ages of Love."

Yang Yang was confused at how Madam Lu was speaking to Yue Ling. However, worried that she (Yue Ling) might find him strange, he looks at her as if asking her not to dislike him because he isn't like other men.

At first, Yue Ling was confused about their many conversations, but she was quick to understand. She smiles politely at Yang Yang and answers.

"Whoever you choose to like is up to you. No one can tell you who you shouldn't be with unless they are not good to you."

Hearing her answer, Yang Yang's eyes turned moist. Most people he meets in Imperial have a hard time understanding him and his friends even rejected him. That is why he tends to go abroad for work since he doesn't feel so left out.

To hear Yue Ling, who is well-known in Imperial say such words really touches his heart.

He touches his chest with both his palms and smiles thankfully.

However, within seconds, he realizes something and looks at Madam Lu then at Yue Ling.

The space between his brows crease into three lines and he tilts his head.

"Wait a minute. I'm a little lost here, do you both know each other?"

Madam Lu rolled her eyes and takes a step to lock her arm with Yue Ling. She raises her chin with proudness and puts on a confident attitude.

"Ah Ling is my Lu family's future daughter-in-law."

Turning her head to look at Yue Ling, she smiles like a mother who was proud of her daughter.

"Today is solely about her. She deserves only the best wedding dress in the world."
