White crop top along with a black skirt, paired with a black coloured crop jacket. Lao K's taste of clothes apparently. He spend at least 30min just to find the perfect fit for her. He made her style her hair into two tiny pony tails at the back with the rest of the hair flowing behind her back. Her make up done naturally.
"Perfect goddess," Lao K said as he looks at her at the mirror. Lao K definitely has magic in his hands.
"Lao K... I'm sorry, seriously. I know I shouldn't have broke your heart and shouldn't be going on a date when I rejected you both. I seriously-" She was engulfed with a warm hug which made her stop talking. It was surprisingly warm.
"I understand. I respect it. I'm always the second choice in this life. Thank you for at least choosing me. I'm not mad. It's your happiness. Once you found yours, I'll be happy. Now go, go for that man. That man that you first love, chase after him. He's going to run away once more, catch him before he is out of your reach again," Lao K said as he hugged her.
"Lao K..."
"Hurry up. He's waiting for you princess," Lao K said, letting go of the hug before pushing her out of her room. He nodded his head at her, telling her to just go. She looked at the guy once more, she prays that he gets a girl that he deserves. She quickly runs back to him, hugging him once more, whispering a 'thank you' before running down the stairs. Lao K waved at her before seeing her figure disappear behind the doors.
Jia Xuan walked outside, seeing Jiao Huang already ready with his car. She awkwardly walked towards him as she sees him straightening his back. She cleared her throat before speaking, "So where are we going? I can't be out and seen by those paparazzi."
He nodded. What did he mean by that? Did he just nod to her statement? He just opened the door, gesturing her to get in. She did what he told her to do, making herself comfortable inside. When he got inside the car, he started to start the car before driving off.
"Nice car. When did you get it?" She asked, trying to ease the tension around the air.
"A few months ago before you came back," Jiao Huang replied before starting to play some music in the car. Is he trying to stop the conversation? Is he trying to just use her so that she don't go back to Lao K? The audacity to do that. Suddenly, a familiar tune came from the radio. It was her group's debut song, It's you. Surprisingly, Jiao Huang was even humming to it.
Turns out he was playing her entire albums that had been released. When they reach the mall, he asked her to get down the car by opening the door for her. She got out of the car before following beside him, still wandering where he was taking her. "You should wear your mask for now. It gets sort of crowded at this timing," Jiao Huang said before taking out a mask for her and putting it on from her.
Butterflies were fluttering inside her stomach, that tingling feeling inside her. She swore that she stopped breathing for a second when he came close to her. Her ears turned red and her cheeks started to heat up. Her face tickled a little as she felt his touch. She stared at him, studying his facial features. "Let's go." She snapped out of her dreamy state and got back to reality.
They walked side by side as she looked down on the floor, preventing anyone from seeing her face. She felt a hand squeeze her hand, she looked at the side, seeing Jiao Huang's hand holding onto hers. His warm hands on hers. They walked to the claw machine arcade, Jiao Huang paying the money and taking the tokens in a basket. Jia Xuan looked around the place, so familiar.
Her brain tried to remember when did she come here before but she couldn't.
"You want that?" Jiao Huang asked as he saw the kitten plushie that was inside there, "Or do you want the entire collection? Actually knowing you long enough, you want to collect everything, so I'll just do that." Jia Xuan blinked her eyes when he said that. He effortlessly just picked up the plushies one by one without missing it. People gather around the place, crowding around, trying to see the "action".
"There's a crowd," She mumbled as she tugged his jacket sleeves. He looked at her before looking around. He wrapped his hands around her waist bringing her closer to him, making her stand in front of him, getting covered by the crowd. The crowd made a whistle sound as they saw it.
Her face was flushed with a colour of red. She was blushing so hard externally and internally. "Better now?" Jiao Huang asked as he caught another plushie for her. She quickly bend down to take the plushie, her hands filled with all the plushies that he took. He held her hand before bringing her to another machine, doing the same actions as before, catching the plushie for her.
Her first date when she was with Jiao Huang when she got together with Jiao Huang for the first time. Coincidence or not, she don't know. She looked at him, seeing him concentrating on getting the plushie. "What else do you want?" He asked as he bend his head down to the side, staring at her. She turned to look at him, seeing his eyes gazing at her face.
"Anything," Jia Xuan whispered at him, and she somehow received a smile from Jiao Huang. He looked around before seeing the other machines. He pulled her away from the crowd and brought her to the keychain machine. Jia Xuan was confused at what he was doing, keychains? She looked at the machine carefully before realising that he was trying to get a matching keychain with her. Once he caught it, he took it out from the chute before bringing her out of the place, with the crowds dispersing the moment they disappeared.
They walked for a long time, non-stop till they stop at a cafe. Jiao Huang's favourite cafe. Jiao Huang didn't say anything but just pulled her inside the cafe, finding a seat where there isn't a lot of people. 8Please respect copyright.PENANAH1LwXwxmRd
Well, little did they know, the whole lot of people were following them.8Please respect copyright.PENANAwg9LKv2rSj
"Oi, quit stepping on my shoe," Lu Yue whined as Lao K stepped on his shoe, just to get a better view.
"Y'all are very noisy," Lao Mao said as he squinted his eyes to see the drama.
"Shut up, they will notice us," Xiao Pang hushed them up as he took a look at them.
"At this rate, we are all going to get caught," Ai Jia said as he popped out behind Lao Mao who was piggy-carrying him.
"Short ass, quit talking," Lao Mao said as he stabilized Ai Jia.
"They are inside the cafe. I can't see them," Lao K said.
"Me either," Xiao Pang frowned.
"Let's go in, get a drink, umm, Lao Mao, why did you have to dye your hair to blonde brown. Seriously, they will know you, the moment you step inside the cafe," Lu Yue said as he picked Lao Mao's hair.
"Hey! Lao K said it looks good on me. Even the fans says so," Lao Mao fired back. Lao K nodded his head in agreement. 8Please respect copyright.PENANA8RNcBPu8S0
"Did getting dump led you to be dumb?" Lu Yue sighed before walking to the cafe entrance and picking a spot where they probably won't be able to be seen by the two.
Jia Xuan sat opposite Jiao Huang, awkwardly looking at the menu. Jiao Huang looked at her, "Matcha latte? Along with your favourite pasta? And with tiramisu?" She looked up before slightly nodding her head. She knew she wouldn't be able to finish the food. Force herself to eat is the only way so that Jiao Huang won't notice she is on a dangerous diet.
