Zhen Yin is looking at the ring on her finger.

"Do you like that?", Dong Xian asked his fiancée.

She nodded. She is touched by his sincerity.

"Frankly speaking … the ring wasn’t chosen by me as I have never bought a woman’s ring. That was chosen by the shop attendant", he admitted.

"Did you tell them ‘I want the most expensive one’?", she teased.

"Do you think I am a fool" he smiled, his tone soft "I said ‘please give me a magic ring … she’ll never leave me once she put it on’."

Only a fool will give such criteria, she laughed "So they gave you this ring?"

"No. She asked about my budget", he added.

"They must be in a tight spot. What did you say, Dong Xian?", she is curious.

"I said ‘you need not consider about the budget. I want the ring that is most suitable for my fiancée’" he looked at the ring "that’s how I chose this ring"

Only a fool will buy things in such a way, she laughed "I think you have paid too much, Dong Xian" she held his hand "Bring me along next time" she could bargain for him.

"Do you want me to get you another ring?"

"No … that’s not what I mean"

"My goodness! Because I don’t have much money now", he teased her.

"Don’t worry. I have an income", Zhen Yin is serious.

"Then I shall have a comfortable life from now on", he smiled at her seriousness.

"Of course!", Zhen Yin replied.

No one has ever offered to support him, other than Zhen Yin … and Zhen Yin is the one and only woman he love. Happiness begin to fill his heart. He thought about the dangerous mission later that night … he thought about their future …

"If …" Dong Xian asked "I am saying ‘If’ … if something bad happen to me, or I need to be in somewhere else, or I am injured … will you still remain by my side?"

"Of course!" her answer is instant "Nothing can separate a married couple other than death … a married couple should be together … are you afraid that I’ll run away?"

Is he able to take good care of Zhen Yin? "I grew up alone. Thus, I have no experience in taking caring of people. "

"How are your foster parents like?", Zhen Yin felt his pain. She wanted to change the topic.

"They are kind folks. They are devoted Christians. They took in two other children on top of me. They took care of us like their own children", he is grateful to them.

Why did he feel so lonely then? "Then why? …"

"It has been painful to realize the difference in skin colour during my teenage years" he has been a total foreigner in a foreign land "A brother in the orphanage gave me a catapult before I left Korea for the States" tears shine in his eyes "a catapult made from wood … Do you know?"

Zhen Yin nodded.

"I accidentally broke the kitchen window while playing with the catapult" he fell into the memory lane "I thought they’ll scold me. However my foster father is only concerned about my well-being."

"They are really kind", Zhen Yin commented.

"In the end, they told me to throw the catapult away, in order to put an end to such accidents. I ran away … I buried the catapult" he continued "No matter what kind of toys or food being provided, they couldn’t be compared with the catapult that is from Korea. That catapult is my most precious possession" this is the reason, this is the linkage with his childhood "I’ll dig the catapult out every night to look at it … One day, they found out and confiscated the catapult. I was so furious that I destroyed the plants and dug the soil in the garden" he shivered in that piece of memory "my foster mother … she sent me to a psychiatrist."

She stood and took the seat beside him. She held his hand "Dong Xian, this wouldn’t happen anymore. We’ll live in harmony with our neighbours in future. A happy life is awaiting you" she gave him a promise.

"Really?" he asked "Would I be so fortunate?" Could a hunter enjoy happiness?

She held his hand tight, "Of course! Because you have known me now!"

They smiled at each other. Their hands held tightly together.

They left the restaurant happily. Their happy expressions were imprinted on several "photo-stickers".
