On the beach in Malibu at midday, the sun made the sand feel hot, and the waves surged in and out in waves, neither too loud nor too soft, neither too fast nor too slow.

The sunshine, the waves, and the breeze all seemed perfect; it was the perfect day for a beach vacation.

Taylor Swift walked barefoot on the sand, her skirt billowing in the sea breeze before falling back down. She walked slowly, her high heels dangling from her hand.

Li Fu followed beside her, also barefoot, and the two walked slowly along the beach.

Taylor Swift was quiet today, but seemed to be in a good mood. She occasionally hopped on the beach, probably for a dance rehearsal, her long legs bouncing like a little deer.

The two walked for two or three minutes before she finally stopped, threw her shoes on the beach, closed her eyes, and stretched out her arms as if to embrace the sea. "The California sun is so nice, and the weather is great today too."

A gentle breeze ruffled her golden hair, and sunlight shone on her fair face, giving her an almost cinematic quality...

Li Fu felt regretful that they hadn't brought a camera; the camera resolution of mobile phones in that era was rather poor.

However, he still took the picture.

"What are you doing?" Taylor Swift heard the sound of the phone camera and saw his action. "You're taking pictures of me without my permission."

She walked over quickly, wanting to see... if the photo had made her look bad.

Of course, she couldn't possibly be ugly. She has a good foundation, and with the breeze and sunshine, the lighting was excellent, making it a perfect photo shoot without any retouching.

It's just a pity that the resolution is only so-so, and it becomes blurry when zoomed in.

"Wow, you can even take pictures? Are you omnipotent?" Taylor Swift was a little surprised by the quality of the photos that Li Fu had secretly taken.

"No, no," Li Fu shook his head, "I can only say you're good-looking, I just took a picture casually."

What he casually remarked turned out to be the best praise.

Taylor Swift blushed slightly and unconsciously reached up to tidy her hair. Her gaze towards Li Fu was more direct and gentler than before.

In psychology, the act of combing one's hair can sometimes be seen as a signal of attraction, an unconscious self-soothing and display behavior triggered by tension caused by attraction.

Studies have shown that women fix their hair 2-3 times more often in front of someone they are attracted to.

Li Fu didn't understand psychology, but the white girl in front of him didn't need him to either; she was bolder and more direct than him.

While he was still lost in his beauty and had no time to think, Taylor Swift approached him again, her eyes sparkling like dew on a summer evening in the sunlight. Those lights held love, understanding, and a deep affection that could not be expressed in words.

No one can resist that gaze.

Moreover, she was a superstar of her time, possessing a fresh American sweetheart image and the temperament of a white princess.

Li Fu's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily. He wrapped his arms around her slender waist and lowered his head to kiss her.

Since Taylor Swift met Li Fu on that evening in 2006 and heard him humming Love Story, she has always believed that he is her chosen one who understands her heart.

Perhaps what people who pursue art seek most is understanding and empathy.

Over the past few years, she has suppressed this emotion, experiencing trepidation, doubt, helplessness, and fearlessness. These complex emotions have led her to develop a distinctive personal style in her musical expression.

But at the same time, it almost crushed her.

Until last year, she finally felt the light at the end of the tunnel, and today, that light pierced through the dawn and the clouds, becoming the rising sun...

That suppressed emotion can finally be released freely on this beach.

Taylor Swift's kiss seemed even more passionate than Li Fu's. She stood on tiptoe, turning from a passive response to an active one. Perhaps because she was a singer, her breath was exceptionally long, so long that her toes began to go weak before the kiss finally ended.

They were both panting heavily, looked at each other, then smiled at each other and embraced again.

"I'm so happy today, I want to shout it out loud!" Taylor Swift pulled Li Fu along as they ran on the beach, shouting at the sea as they ran.

There were hardly any people on the beach, and no one bothered them.

Exhausted from running, the two collapsed onto the beach.

Taylor Swift nestled in Li Fu's arms, her blonde hair cascading down her back, her chest rising and falling. She felt she hadn't felt this pure joy in a long time.

She invited Li Fu to the beach today because she was feeling very uneasy and wanted to relax.

The Grammy Awards ceremony is in two days, and she doesn't know if she will win. The huge success of her album Fearless has given her confidence and hope, but the competition for the highest award in the music industry is too fierce.

Unexpectedly, everything fell into place while I was taking a break.

"What are you thinking about?" Li Fu turned and gently stroked her cheek. "The upcoming annual awards ceremony?"

"Yes," Taylor Swift nodded gently.

Are you nervous?

"A little."

"Don't worry, believe in yourself," Li Fu certainly knew the result, but it was best to wait until the awards ceremony to reveal the surprise.

He reassured Taylor Swift and chose not to "spoil" anything.

2010 was a very successful year for Taylor Swift, with her album Fearless approaching seven million sales, becoming the number one selling album in the United States, and still growing.

The album received a total of eight nominations at this year's Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Country Album, Best Female Country Vocal Performance, Best Country Song, and more.

She is widely considered a strong contender for Album of the Year, while other contenders include superstars such as Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, The Lyon Family, and Maxwell.

Beyoncé and Lady Gaga need no introduction; they are both globally renowned superstars in the music industry.

Many people in China may not be familiar with the names of the Lyon Royals and Maxwell, but they are both very popular singers in the United States. The former is a superstar of mainstream rock, while the latter is a master in the R&B field.

Taylor Swift is only twenty years old, younger than them all, so it's understandable that she feels nervous.

"Do you have a lot of confidence in me?" She turned to face Li Fu, their foreheads touching and their noses almost touching, so close that they could hear each other's breaths.

"Of course," Li Fu replied confidently, "You just need to focus on making music, and good results will naturally follow..."

He didn't say anything else, but he promised that if anyone tried to stop them, they would be beaten to a pulp.

"Being set up by capital" was one of the most popular jokes on the internet in his previous life, and now he is capital, and one of the most powerful capitals in the entertainment industry.

He was cautious in political and business circles because his enemies were powerful and unscrupulous, and he had to avoid the sharp edge of the highest power in Washington from time to time. He had no choice but to act this way.

But in the entertainment industry... should I avoid his sharp edge?

Taylor Swift could feel his strong desire to protect her. She gently rubbed her forehead against his. Being protected was certainly something to be happy about, but what she wanted more was him as a person.

Just like the lyrics later went, "You don't need to save me, but would you be willing to run away with me?"

She longed to hear that unwavering "Yes."
