Chapter 1

Mate Forever

'Found him'

°°

"Nuo... Nuo..."

A soft, delightful and sweet voice reached her ears, with those smiles on her glamorous lips, shedding crystal tears from her eyes to her chin. It was as if she was saying the farewell to her forever.

She begged her with those agonizing eyes, quavering but soft voice "Please... For love's sake, I beg you to take care of Xi——"

~...No! Please... Don't go. Please... I... I beg you to stay. Please... Yu———~ Her inner voice was crying out but she could not utter those words on her lips as if her lips were sealed.

"Xi—Xia——"

She stared at an unconscious boy on her lap as she shed tears, blood dripping from his head covering his face, bruises all over his body, her trembling body and a spineless look on her face as she heard the sound of the scary howl from the surrounding.

She was powerless and helpless. The only thing she could do was sob with her useless self.

She was horrified as she gazed before her eye where hundreds of werewolves were running towards them thirsting for blood.

'Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!.....'

"Nuo... Nuo... YANG NUO!!!" A loud voice echoed in her ear as she opened her eye gasping for air.

"Nuo! Are you all right?"

Yang Nuo saw a familiar figure in front of her with an apprehensive expression about 5 foot 4 inches in her thirties, Wang Qin, Yang Nuo's agent asked with anxiety, "Why are you crying?"

Yang Nuo looked at Wang Qin with frightened looks on her face and tears in her eyes, taking a long breath "Q-Qin?"

"Yeah! I'm right here!" Wang Qin hugged her gently giving her a feeling of security "Don't worry. It's alright." Her voice was gentle and soft as if the parent was comforting her child.

Wang Qin stared at Yang Nuo, smiled gently "Did you saw the same nightmare?"

Yang Nuo quietly nodded with her tearful eyes.

Wang Qin wiped the tears in her cheeks and comfort her "Don't worry. It's gonna be alright, okay?"

Yang Nuo took a deep breath as she nod her head.

Wang Qin giggled "Look at your makeup now. You look like a ghost. Hehe! just kidding but still..." She turns back and called the make-up artist "Redo her makeup, Fast. The reporters and fans are already here. There is no time now."

The make-up artist hurriedly begins to redo her makeup.

Wang Qin asked Yang Nuo with anxious "Nuo? Just like other times, are you sure, you want to—"

Yang Nuo interrupted "Yeah!!" She looked at the mirror with a boldface "Of course. After all, it's not my first time and I can't let this influence my carrier since it's incredibly valuable to me and my fans are waiting after all. How could I let them down?"

Wang Qin was apprehensive as she sighed "Alright!" She warned her "If you feel uncomfortable, sick, or weak or anything else, just give it a sign. We will cancel everything. You got it?" She was like a parent whose child was going to school alone for the first time.

Yang Nuo gave a long sigh "Alright! Alright! I got it. You're just acting like my parents now."

As the word come out from her lips 'Parents', Yang Nuo instantly changed the topic as there was an awkward silence in the makeup room "Oh! By the way, Is everything ready by now? It's gonna be late after all." She asked even though Wang Qin had already told that the reporters are waiting.

Yang Nuo shortly responded "Y-Yeah! I... I'll go and check it out, then."

"Sure!!" Yang Nuo smiled but it disappear from her face right after Wang Qin went out. She mumbled "Have I lost my mind? How could I even say that when all those bad deeds have happened to her?"

°

2 years ago, Wang Qin, Whose child was about years old had died due to an accident where Wang Qin was also about to die. The one who made this accident was none other than her husband.

If it weren't for Yang Nuo, who saved Wang Xin life by calling every expert doctor around the world then, she could have also died but unfortunately, Qin's child who was not even one year old died in the accident. This accident had made a great impact on Qin's life.

Her husband went to prison, and Wang Qin was abandoned by her family. She started up living her life all alone but if it wasn't for Yang Nuo who was beside her in those crucial moments, She would have been abandoned completely and left alone.

Wang Qin was Yang Nuo's agent when she first stepped into the entertainment industry, six years ago. When nobody wanted to serve her as her agent because of coming from a middle-class family, not being able to pay a high salary, Wang Qin was the only person who was willing to become her agent with nothing in return cause she truly believe in her.

Wang Qin has always been her agent, the only time when she gave birth to her child, she stopped working as her agent until her child was lifeless and no more in this world.

When there was no one by her side, Yang Nuo was the only person who helped her when she needed most, since then she decided to be with her forever whether in a bad or good situation. Wang Qin had promised herself that she will forever take care of Yang Nuo.

Right after the light make-up was done in Nuo's natural face, she looked at the mirror with a straight, high head and smiled "Thanks, Kio. You're great."

Kio blushed "T-That..."

Yang Nuo stood up from the chair and patted on her shoulder "Don't be shy! Don't be shy! You're great."

Just when she was about to open the door, it was unlocked from outside. She saw a tall figure around 5 foot 9 inches. His brown hair, dark hazel eyes, round eyebrows, Grecian nose with bow-shaped lips making him remarkably handsome.

"Liyo?"

Chen Liyo was a popular male actress. He was the dream husband of every girl and woman. Even the guys admired his unusual handsome face.

Right after Chen Liyo enters, Kio walked out hurriedly "I... I'll take my leave then. T-Thank you."

He grinned "Nuo! I'm pleased that we both call each other by our first name. Don't you think, we are just too close? By the way, The press media are already waiting for us. Let's go now. More importantly, Fans are going crazy."

He gazed at her with desire in his eyes as he plays through her beautiful hair "So?" He approached close to her, whispered in her ear in a deep voice "When will you take me on a date? Are we going after this or else..."

Yang Nuo slapped his hand back and glared at him with a cold eye "Don't you dare to touch me with your filthy hand."

"PUff! Hahaha..." Chen Liyo laughed as he stared at her with an amused "You're harsh as always, Nuo."

Yang Nuo rolled her eye with lack of interest in him, as she stepped out of the room.

The corner of Liyo's lips curved up ~ The only person who has ever made me crazy is you, Nuo. Don't assume, you'll just get away from me.~ He then followed her back to the stage.

The reporters, fans, who were eagerly waiting, heard the sound of footstep produced by pen heel.

They saw a fit and slim figure around 5 foot 7 inches in height in a scarlet bodycon dress, hugging her figure tightly, revealing her attractive figure with a black stilettos heel, captivating everyone's attention to her.

Her beautiful balayage hair, light brown eyes with steep arch eyebrows, bow-shaped lips, warm ivory skin tone, was making her incredibly gorgeous.

This stunning lady to whom everyone was envious was none other than, Queen of the Entertainment Industry, a brilliant actress, Yang Nuo, Whose name was not just popular in China but was widespread all over the world.

To come to this extend, it didn't even take about 6 years. At the young age of about 27, the world was already in her palm. This success was not something that anyone could achieve.

Cameraman, reporters, journalists and others

Fans

who were present there did not even blink their eyes even once. It was as if, they had lost themselves in her charm.

It was not until she opened her rosy and sexy lips "Hello! I apologised for keeping you wait here for so long."

Those who were still lost in her beauty came back to earth as her soft voice reached their ear. It was as if her voice was summoning them.

Everyone was in chaos, especially the fan who came here just to even have a glimpse of her. The cameraman started taking her photo non-stop. The flashlight was all over her body, yet she was looking straight with no hint of nervousness.

Whooooo... YANGGG NUOOOO!!! WE ARE YOUR BIG FAN. WE LOVE YOUUUUUU!!!

The fans, crazy for her, were whooping, their favourite actress name, at the top of their lungs.

Yang Nuo smiled, her smile was sexier and beautiful as she looked around with her lovely and long eyelashes.

The reporters started to asked questions one by one, the camera fixed on her.

"Yang Nuo! How do you feel after winning the award of best actress for four years?"

"Did you except that you were going to win this award again this year too?"

"Can you tell the secret behind this about your success? Fans want to know"

..........

Many questions were raised to her instantly.

Yang Nuo smiled "Of course. I feel pleased, joyous and positive about winning the award for best actress. About the things that whether I had expected or not, Well, I do. I'm confident in myself and everybody has to be confident in themselves whether you would win or not." She glanced around "The secret about my fans wants to know about my success is..."

She gently put the hair back to her ear, as she smiled like a flower blooming in the autumn season. The smile was captivating everyone's heart.

"... It's nothing. There is no secret behind it. There will be never a secret behind anything, especially success cause it is all because of hardworking. The same goes for everyone. A Writers, and a farmer, both work very hard. Do you know what is the difference between them? Writers can work anywhere but farmer have to works beneath the hot sun sweating all over but it doesn't mean, farmers do hard work and writer doesn't. Both work very hard to achieve their goal"

The crowds were in silence, her words were captivating everyone's focus to her.

Nuo's voice fades away with her word.

The silent crowd broke into a whoop with applause. This was the true reason, they had always admired her and her sincerity. She was just perfect at everything.

Chen Liyo, came on the stage and stood beside Yang Nuo as he raised the hand and waved it to the fans.

As soon as fans, especially females, saw Chen Liyo, they started whooping.

"Wowwww!? Chennn Liyooo....!!!"

When Yang Nuo and Chen Liyo stood side by side, they looked very perfect and cute like they were made for each other. So of course, fans were in an uproar.

"You two look so perfect!!"

"You two are made for each other."

"You two should date each other."

........

The fans were admiring them very much.

Chen Liyo was feeling pleased to hear that but he could feel the cold aura beside him from none other than Mio. He knew that Yang Nuo was incredibly angry but was resisting herself from showing her emotion.

"Well! Thank you very much." Chen Liyo said with a candy smile.

The reporters started asking questions to them "Yang Nuo and Chen Liyo, You have both won the best actress and actor of the years for playing the same movie as a Female and Male lead. How do you feel about that?"

Chen Liyo said with a sweet smile as he looked at Yang Nuo "Of course. I'm very happy. In fact, I was delighted to be able to work with the queen of actresses. I'm very glad to be able to get this opportunity."

"Fans are shipping you two and even wants this couple to be a sail. What do you think about this?"

"Hmmm!" The corner of his lip rose as he glanced at Yang Nuo "Yeah! I—"

Yang Nuo interrupted "We don't have any of those kinds of feeling for each other. I would be truly pleased if we stay friends forever..." She glared at Chen Liyo with a soft smile "...Right?" She was obviously giving him a warning.

Chen Liyosighed and nodded his head "Yeah! Yeah! You're truly, extraordinarily, and incredibly right!"

He thought in his mind ~Dang!! This woman is truly scary.~

The fans were disappointed but they entirely respected her feelings.

"Yang Nuo, The way you are saying, are you in love with someone else?"

Nuo's heart skipped a beat.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

There was a delightful smile on her face full of love in her eyes for that Man.

"Yeah! I do. I've been in love since high school. In fact, even before high school. I have had a crush on him for many years. It has almost been 12 years but I haven't seen him for 9 years, since my last year of high school."

When the fans found out her truth about Yang Nuo having a crush, they were dumbstruck. The Queen having a crush? It was something unimaginable and unbelievable. If she wasn't the one to proclaim this, no one would have believed it.

Chen Liyo, who was standing by her side was additionally stunned. He had been hitting on her for one year just to find out that, she has a crush since many years ago. What the hell?

Yang Nuo, just got the message on her Phone.

She looked at the message which made her feel like, it must be a dream.

"Found him???"
