Chapter 4 - Restaurant
--
Sakura shaded her eyes from the angry flashes of light. When she and Tomoyo emerged from the entrance of the airport, different flashes of light from cameras were the first thing they saw.
As they walked on the wide polished floor of the airport to the large exit gates which separates them from the people, securities already started to surround them, and when they passed the gate, the reporters and camera men also crowded at them.
Sakura suddenly felt dizzy because of the continues flashes of lights, and found it difficult to breath because there were so many people crowding at them. Suddenly, a soft and strong hand caught hers; she slowly raised her emerald eyes and saw a gentle familiar face.
“Yukito-san!” her emerald eyes lighted with happiness.
“Are you alright?” Yukito asked, concern written on his face.
---Yukito is now the current manager of the Avalon Chain Hotel branch in Beijing. He and her brother Touya are long-time friends ever since high school. ---
“Yes. I'm fine.” She replied.
Yukito gave her a small nod; he suddenly pulled her hand and said. “Come on, let's hurry!”
The next thing she knew, she was running. Yukito was on her front, still holding her hand, while Tomoyo on her side, who was also running. She noticed that the heavy load she felt in her shoulders a while ago was now gone. She looked back and noticed that the securities were left behind to hold up the media.
“What a relief!” she thought.
It took them a good 15 minutes until they reached the exit, and when they reached it, they were all gasping for breath.
“This is why I hate exercise.” Tomoyo mumbled.
Sakura laughed.
--
When they exited the airport, a brand new black Mercedes was already waiting for them.
Yukito opened the door of the car and motioned them to get inside. Sakura and Tomoyo complied and got in, Yukito then closed the door and sat on the passenger's seat.
Sakura looked at the driver's seat and found a man on his early 40's, staring at her.
“Sakura, Tomoyo, this is Chin Bin.” Yukito introduced the chauffer.
Chin Bin gave them a polite nod and she and Tomoyo returned him a smile.
“You ladies might be hungry since it's already time for lunch.” Yukito said as he glanced at his watch.
“Yes, I'm quite hungry because I haven't eaten anything in the flight.” Tomoyo said cheerfully.
Yukito smiled. “Then we'll eat at one of my favorite Chinese restaurants. They have very good food there. ”
Sakura smiled at Yukito, she remembered that he really loves to eat.
“Bring us to the Lotus Flower Restaurant, Chin.” Yukito said to the chauffer.

“Is that Xiao Lang Li?! God! I hadn't imagined he'd be so handsome and drop dead gorgeous in person!”
“God! I wished my boyfriend is as handsome as him!”
“No, I wish my boyfriend WAS him!”
“Look! Its Eriol Hiiragizawa! He looks pretty cute!”
“Xiao Lang is much cuter!”
“They both look so charming!”
“They look like real gentlemen!”
Syaoran smirked when he heard the people's remarks as they past by them. He and Eriol were surrounded by securities. The people and reporters were much calmer there than the people on the other side of the gates.
“Xiao Lang!!!” a familiar voice cried.
The next thing Syaoran knew, a pair of arms were already around his neck. And when he looked down, a familiar pair of ruby eyes met his amber ones.
“Mei Ling!”
“Xiao Lang! I'm so happy right now! It's really good to see you again!” Mei Ling cried, giving Syaoran a peck on the cheek.
“It's good to see you too, Mei Ling.”
Syaoran smiled and patted Mei Ling on the head so she could release him.
“Eriol! It's been a long time since I last saw you, you sure gained weight!”
She said to Eriol, also giving him a hug.
“Yeah. You too Mei Ling, you're hair is now longer than the last time I saw you.”
Eriol said, smiling.
“Welcome to Beijing, Mr. Li, Mr. Hiiragizawa.” A deep voice said.
Syaoran raised his eyes and saw a tall man almost the same age as he was. His eyes were very black, so was his hair.
“Xiao Lang, Eriol, this is Jin Tan Dy. He's my boyfriend.” Mei Ling introduced him cheerfully as she moved beside him and intertwined her arm on his.
“It's nice to meet you Mr. Li, Mr. Hiiragizawa.” Jin said politely.
Syaoran gave him a curt nod, while Eriol smiled at him.
“It's nice to meet you too, Mr. Dy.” he said politely.
“You guys might be very hungry since it's already lunch time. I booked a reservation for us in a nice Chinese restaurant. The food is really good there.” Jin said.
“That's great! I'm really getting hungry.” Eriol said happily.
“Me too. We've been waiting here for almost 2 hours now, and my feet are starting to hurt.” Mei Ling said.
“Hey, it's not our fault. You're the one who volunteered picking us here.” Syaoran replied annoyingly.
Mei Ling pouted. -Hmmpphh… You haven't change Syaoran. You're still a jerk.-
She thought. Then she smiled to herself.

They all walked out of the airport and got inside a black limousine. After a few minutes, they stopped in a large restaurant.
Syaoran looked up at the large building. He stared at the large name -“Lotus Flower Restaurant”- that was made of shiny metal, and there were two large lotus flowers beautifully drawn on both sides of it.
“Come on Syaoran! Hurry up! I'm starving!” Mei ling whined.
“Hai, Hai.” He said and followed them inside.
Syaoran observed the insides of the restaurant when they entered it. As they passed the corridors and had the chance to see the different dining halls, he noticed that almost everything in the restaurant seems to have the color of red. The curtains, the carpet, the table cloths, the uniforms of the waiters and waitresses, the cushions of the chairs, they were all made of red fabrics. The owner must really love the color of red, he thought.
After a few turns, they stopped in front of a large glass door. He could see that the room was quite big since the doors were made of glass. And the people inside were quite many too. The waiters opened the door for them and they walked inside.
The room was decorated with different Chinese ornaments and is quite pretty. It was divided in two sides. On the left side placed medium size round tables and on the right side placed large round tables good for 15 persons. They walked on the left side since there were only four of them.
--
Sakura, Tomoyo and Yukito were already on their table and were waiting for their orders.
They were on the left side since they were only three of them.
They were in a conversation when Sakura noticed a small group of people entered the large dining hall, since her seat's position was facing the entrance.
But she could not see their faces clearly because they were quite far away from their table. A woman, that looked like her age, with long black hair that were tied in two buns on both sides of her head, and a man with jet black hair were the first ones who entered, followed by two other men. The one on the left had messy chestnut hair while the other one on the right had blue hair and had eyeglasses that were similar to Yukito's.
The group was slowly walking on their direction, and as they got closer, she noticed that the men looked quite familiar to her, especially the black haired one.
Then, the group stopped three tables away from them. She now could see the black haired guy's face clearly since his seat was facing her direction.
Recalling……
Recalling……
Recalling……
Then it hit her.
She stood up and called.
“JJJJIIIINNN!”
