Yu Chen turned her face away, "It was probably my eyes."
Si Xia: "Nu uh."
Yu Chen: "Then what?"
Si Xia gave a devilish smile, "What will I get in return?"
Yu Chen pouted, "You want something in return?!?!"
Si Xia: "Of course, I'm a businessman. I look for profit in every transaction."
Yu Chen: "What do you want?"
Si Xia stared into Chen's eyes as his face came dangerously close. He said in a soft voice, "How about a kiss?"
Yu Chen's face immediately turned red as she stood up from his lap. She said, "How much of a pervert did you turn into while I was not here?"
Si Xia pulled her back as he said, "Enough to make your face go tomato. So, what about our deal?"
Yu chen shook her head, "Nope. Not doing it."
Si Xia raised an eyebrow as his hand began to travel down from her waist. Yu Chen immediately caught his hand, "What the hell!"
Si Xia: "Jeez, fine. So, let's change the proposition. How about a date?"
Yu Chen's heart was filled with happiness as she heard him say that. On the outside, she pretended to think as she said, "Fine. Now, what gave my disguise away?"
Si Xia put his face in the crook of her neck as he said, "Your smell."
Yu Chen was surprised and confused, "My smell? Huh." She sniffed herself and could not smell anything.
Yu Chen had never liked perfumes, they made her head ache. So, it was inevitable that she never wore them.
As she was pondering over this realisation, Si Xia looked up. He said, "There was one more thing that confirmed my guess."
Yu Chen tilted her head a little to the side.
Si Xia lifted one of his hands from Chen's waist and put it on the side of her head, where she was wearing the butterfly shaped clips.
He stroked the clip as a warm smile formed on his lips.
These clips were the first ever gift she had received from him on their first date. She had wore them every day since then. Yu Chen loved them and got angry if anyone ever said that they looked childish.
Yu Chen put her hand on the other clip as she said, "Yeah. They're too recognisable. I didn't even think when I put them on."
Si Xia was a little surprised. He had thought that Yu Chen had only wore the clips yesterday and today because she was meeting him. He did not think that she would usually wear them. Because, let's face it, the clips were a little childish and they were 23 and 24.
Si Xia asked, "You wear them often?"
Yu Chen nodded. She said, "It's become like a habit of mine. They remind me of you."
Si Xia was so happy upon hearing this that he felt that if he was to die this second, if this would become his last memory, he would be quite satisfied.
While he was lost in thought, Yu Chen got up and adjusted her sweater. She said, "Let's go. Hua and Zenghai must be waiting."
