章節 71: Christmas Eve
For the next few days, Feng Jiu and Dong Hua were tied up with work, and they barely talked to each other.
Feng Jiu spent all her free time at home knitting her scarf, and she finally managed to finish it by Thursday night. She put it in a beautiful white box and had a pretty red bow tied to it. "Hopefully, Dong Hua would like my handmade gift."
After slaving for days at work, they also finished their project on Thursday and successfully handed over the project to Zhi Yue Art Gallery. After settling the second last meeting at 7 PM, Dong Hua took out his phone and called Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu: Hello! Are you done with your meeting?
Dong Hua: Yes. Xiao Bai, what are you doing now? Did you have dinner yet?
Feng Jiu: I just had dinner, and I'm preparing some food ingredients for tomorrow's potluck gathering. I am going to make Ginger Onion Fish Fillet - Jiāng cōng yú piàn (姜葱鱼片).
Dong Hua: Wow, that sounds nice, and I can't wait to eat your fish tomorrow. Remember to save some for me since I have the last meeting to attend tomorrow. I would only be there around 8 PM.
Feng Jiu: Oh? You have another meeting tomorrow? But it's Christmas Eve! I will keep some for you then.
Dong Hua: I don't have a choice, Xiao Bai. I'll make it quick so I can quickly come to the gathering and try your Ginger Onion Fish Fillet.
Feng Jiu: *Yawns* Okay, make it quick. I'll wait for you at the gathering!
Dong Hua: You sound tired, so go to bed now. Good night, Xiao Bai.
Feng Jiu: Yeah, I'm heading to bed now. Okay, see you tomorrow. Good night, Dong Hua. Sleep early too!
Then they hung up the call, and Feng Jiu instantly fell asleep. Dong Hua did some more work before heading to bed too.
----------------------------------------
The next morning, Feng Jiu woke up at 10 AM and began preparing for the potluck gathering. Dong Hua also woke up at the same time, and he started typing on his laptop to finalize up details for the last meeting later on. His custom-made Christmas gift for Feng Jiu was also delivered straight to his office early in the morning.
On the other side, Ji Heng was up way too early as she was 'excited' to execute her evil plan. After having her lunch at home, she quickly got changed into casual clothing, wearing a hat and sunglasses. Then she headed to the nearby cyber cafe and sat down at a far corner. Then she turned on the VPN mode on the computer and started on her evil plan.
First, she created a new anonymous email, and she forwarded the photoshopped picture of Xiao Yan and Feng Jiu to that email. She thought to herself, "Once Dong Hua sees this, he would be so mad, and he would ditch Feng Jiu for sure. I'll save the picture of Su Moye and Feng Jiu for next time. This photoshopped picture clearly showed them holding hands so it would be useful too."
Then she drafted an email to Dong Hua's personal work email. At this point, it didn't come to her mind that only a few people had Dong Hua's personal work email, and it would eventually backfire on her. She decided just to send the photoshopped picture to Dong Hua, and then she quickly logged out of everything. After that, she paid for the time used at the cyber cafe and promptly left the place to head home. She also decided to wear a nice dress to the gathering tonight so that she could impress Dong Hua.
Ji Heng was Min Su's Secret Santa and vice versa. She got Min Su a pathetic gift voucher, and then she bought a branded purple tie for Dong Hua. Ji Heng actually noticed Dong Hua wearing Feng Jiu's purple tie often, so she assumed that he was into a new colour.
----------------------------------------
Feng Jiu wore a simple pink dress for the gathering, but she also wore shorts underneath it since she wasn't the type who loves wearing dresses. Then she wore a warm coat over it, along with a pair of knee-high boots.
Then she quickly packed up her Ginger Onion Fish Fillet in glass containers, and she also placed the gift for Dong Hua in a Christmas gift bag before putting it into her purse. Feng Jiu then hailed a cab downstairs, and she set off towards her office.
Dong Hua was already in his office at this time since the meeting started at 6 PM. Feng Jiu then arrived at her office on time at 6.30 PM. Most people were already there, and they started taking out their food and placed it on the huge table in the middle of the office.
Si Ming and Lian Song had arrived early and they set up the office in preparation for the gathering. They even decorated the place with Christmas decorations, with the help of some male employees. The gossip duo then played some Christmas songs, and it was really starting to feel like Christmas.
Si Ming then walked up to Feng Jiu, "Hey! You're here. You look nice today, and I can smell your delicious cooking already." Feng Jiu then smiled back warmly and replied, "Thank you, you're too kind. And yes, it's Ginger Onion Fish Fillet (姜葱鱼片)!"
Lian Song then walked over as well and said, "Looking good, Feng Jiu. Come help yourself to some drinks first, and we can start eating once everyone is here."
Feng Jiu smiled and replied, "Can't wait to eat! Oh ya, Dong Hua said he would only be here at around 8 PM, so we have to keep some food for him too."
The gossip duo then looked at each other and smirked. Their minds telepathed, "See? They are close to each other." Then Lian Song replied to Feng Jiu, "Of course. There's so much food here anyway, but we would keep some for Dong Hua. He's the big boss."
Si Ming then nodded his head and replied, "Yeah, Feng Jiu. Maybe you can help him keep some food, and he would feel touched that you're doing such a sweet favour for him."
Feng Jiu then smiled brightly and said, "I will! Dong Hua is going to love my Ginger Onion Fish Fillet (姜葱鱼片). I'm going to separate some into another container first before serving it to others then." Then she walked to the pantry area to keep some food for Dong Hua.
The gossip duo high-fived each other after she was gone. Lian Song then raised his eyebrows and whispered, "Plan G is working well." Si Ming then nodded his head, and then he dragged Lian Song back to setting up the party.
Xiao Yan and Jie Lu then reached the office, and they both brought some takeaway dishes from the nearby Chinese Restaurant. They also brought some snacks like chocolates and marshmallows. Jie Lu then proceeded to take them out of the bags and helped the gossip duo arrange the tables and chairs.
Xiao Yan decided to head into the Pantry to wash his hands since it was oily. Then he met Feng Jiu in the pantry. "Oh, hey! What are you doing, Feng Jiu?" Xiao Yan asked.
"Oh. I'm just keeping some food for Dong Hua since he said he would be late. It's Ginger Onion Fish Fillet (姜葱鱼片), but I know you don't like ginger." Feng Jiu replied with a frown.
Xiao Yan then patted her shoulder and replied, "I can eat your fish without the ginger though." Feng Jiu then smiled and replied, "Oh yeah! I'll pick out the ginger for you and give you one portion later. Would that be okay?"
"Yes! Sounds good. I'll go help them out now. Can't wait to eat your fish later on." Xiao Yan then ran out of the pantry after washing his hands.
----------------------------------------
On the other side, Dong Hua ended his meeting. Then he checked his email account, and he saw a new anonymous email. He opened it out of curiosity, and he saw the photoshopped picture of Xiao Yan holding onto Feng Jiu's hands.
"What? Xiao Bai is dating Xiao Yan?! This can't be true, right? But this picture looks real. Should I ask her about it? But how? Is this why she's avoiding me all the time?" Dong Hua laid back on his chair, and jealousy clouded his mind.
Then he tried to clear his thoughts and headed down to the Design Department's office. Dong Hua also stuffed his gift for Feng Jiu into his pocket. Although he pretty much calmed down, it was still bothering him at the back of his mind.
Finally, at 7.30 PM, everyone was ready to start eating. They took some food and sat around talking and having fun with each other.
Xiao Yan sat down beside Feng Jiu, and he also picked food off her plate as usual. They were close friends, and it was common for them to share food off the same plate. Jie Lu wasn't jealous at all because she knew that they did that way before she even started dating Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan then said to Feng Jiu, "Your fish is so good, I want more!"
Feng Jiu smiled brightly and replied, "Okay, I'll head to the pantry to pick out the ginger from my Ginger Onion Fish Fillet (姜葱鱼片) and pass it to you later. Be right back!" Then she took a small portion of fish and went into the pantry. Jie Lu also went to the bathroom at the same time.
Right at this moment, Dong Hua walked into their office. Everyone greeted him, and he looked around to see where Feng Jiu was. Lian Song then said loudly in front of Dong Hua, "Where did Feng Jiu go?" Si Ming then replied loudly, "Oh, I saw her heading towards the pantry."
"I'll wash my hands before eating." Dong Hua then quickly excused himself and walked towards the pantry immediately. The gossip duo then raised their eyebrows at each other and headed back to eating.
Feng Jiu had her back facing the entrance, and she heard footsteps behind her. Assuming that it was Xiao Yan, she said casually, "Xiao Yan. I'm almost done here. I'm just picking out those small pieces of ginger since I know you hated them. I'm glad that you like eating my Ginger Onion Fish Fillet (姜葱鱼片). I can cook one for you without ginger next time."
Upon hearing that, Dong Hua's mind was clouded with jealousy again, and he couldn't think straight. "They are really dating? She's even picking food out for him. Am I really just a good friend to her? This is why she's always avoiding me. Why is my heart in pain? Why is she dating Xiao Yan?" He was deep in his thoughts, and he stood there without saying a word.
Feng Jiu then turned around after she was done picking out the ginger, and she was stunned to see Dong Hua there. "Oh. Dong Hua. Sorry, I thought you were Xiao Yan. By the way, I kept a portion of my Ginger Onion Fish Fillet (姜葱鱼片) for you." Then she quickly took out the container from the cupboard and handed it to Dong Hua.
Dong Hua cleared his throat loudly and replied coldly, "It's fine. There's a lot of food outside too." Then he walked out of the pantry. Feng Jiu then chased after Dong Hua and asked, "Are you tired? I thought you would only be here after 8 PM."
Dong Hua continued to ignore her and thought to himself, "My heart hurts a lot, Xiao Bai. I don't know how to face you now. You would wish I'm not here so that you can spend more time with Xiao Yan, right? Maybe I shouldn't even be here." Then he walked away and sat with the gossip duo.
Feng Jiu thought to herself, "What's wrong? Why is Dong Hua so cold? Maybe he's tired?" Then she sat down beside Xiao Yan again. Jie Lu was still in the washroom since she was fixing her hair, and she was also having a conversation with a co-worker there.
Xiao Yan then ate the fish off Feng Jiu's plate again, and he smiled at her sweetly. Feng Jiu kept glancing over to Dong Hua, but he refused to look at her. Dong Hua then secretly looked over at them when Feng Jiu wasn't looking. He noticed Xiao Yan eating off Feng Jiu's plate, and he got even more jealous. "I don't feel like staying here anymore." He thought to himself.
As Dong Hua got up to leave, the annoying Ji Heng came running over to him. "Try my dish. It's Sweet and Sour Fish, and I heard your Signature dish is Sweet and Sour Fish too." Dong Hua then rejected her coldly and continued sipping on wine.
The gossip duo noticed that Dong Hua and Feng Jiu were distant, and they quickly tried to help them. Lian Song then got everyone to gather at the center of the office where all the food was.
Then he announced to everyone, "Since it's a potluck gathering and some of you brought home-cooked food. Should we have a mini food tasting competition? We will all taste the home-cooked food and then vote for the best-cooked food. The winner gets a 100 RMB (Approx 14 USD) food voucher to redeem at the cafeteria downstairs."
Everyone then nodded their heads and agreed. They tried the home-cooked food one by one, and most people voted for Feng Jiu's Ginger Onion Fish Fillet (姜葱鱼片). But Dong Hua didn't put in his vote on anyone, and the gossip duo nudged Dong Hua to pick one dish. Ji Heng then tried to offer her fish again, and Feng Jiu stared at Dong Hua while Ji Heng approached him.
Dong Hua then noticed Xiao Yan smiling at Feng Jiu, and he also said, "Feng Jiu, your dish is the best. I love your cooking the most, and nobody can beat you in cooking." Feng Jiu then smiled back sweetly and replied to Xiao Yan, "You're the best, Xiao Yan! Just tell me what you want to eat, and I will make it for you. I know you hate ginger, but you love plum sorbet."
Upon hearing the conversation between Xiao Yan and Feng Jiu, Dong Hua lost control of all his emotions instantly. He repressed it deep inside, and he decided to try Ji Heng's Sweet and Sour Fish while Feng Jiu was staring at him.
His jealousy then caused him to made a huge wrong move.
"I pick Ji Heng's fish." Dong Hua said coldly, and he slowly walked back to his seat. Ji Heng couldn't stop smiling upon hearing that, and the gossip duo was shocked to hear Dong Hua say that. Then they quickly looked at Feng Jiu, and it looked like she was almost in tears.
"What? Dong Hua picked Ji Heng over me... I knew it! I knew it all along... I'm nothing to him, and Ji Heng is important to him. I'm stupid for thinking that he would have special feelings for me. I...hate...this feeling. My heart is in pain... I want to leave now." Feng Jiu tried her best to hold back her tears. Then she grabbed all her belongings and swiftly ran out to the washroom as she couldn't hold it in anymore.
Feng Jiu ran past Jie Lu while she was walking out of the washroom, and she totally ignored her existence. Feng Jiu then locked herself in one of the cubicles, and her tears started falling. "Why? Why Ji Heng? Dong Hua is a horrible guy, and he's dumb! I hate Dong Hua! I also hate myself for giving myself false hope. I knew I was setting myself up for disappointment." Feng Jiu cupped her face using both of her hands and tried her hardest not to make a sound.
Jie Lu then sat down beside Xiao Yan and whispered to him, "I saw Feng Jiu, and she looked upset. Maybe I'm just overthinking." Xiao Yan then held onto Jie Lu's hands and whispered back, "Oh? Maybe you're thinking too much. She seems fine just now." Then they smiled at each other sweetly. Xiao Yan stood up and took more food for Jie Lu, "You need to eat more since you're too skinny. I don't want people to think I'm mistreating my girlfriend." Then he hugged Jie Lu.
Jie Lu blushed and replied, "Everyone is watching!" Xiao Yan then hugged her tighter and replied loudly, "Who cares? I want to show the whole world that you're my girlfriend." Jie Lu then stuffed more food into his mouth to shut him up.
Dong Hua, who was seated nearby, saw and heard everything. He widened his eyes with shock and thought to himself, "What? Xiao Yan and Feng Jiu are not dating? Then that picture must be fake. So... I misunderstood their relationship? I'm so stupid! Xiao Bai must be really mad and upset at me now. What should I do? I need to go find her and explain to her now."
Dong Hua then stood up and promptly left the office. He headed towards the washroom to look for Feng Jiu. Ji Heng also ran after him, trying to find a chance to approach him alone.
"Wait for me, Dong Hua. I just wanted to say that I'm glad that you picked my fish just now. I'm so happy that you picked me. I also have a gift for you." Ji Heng said while running after Dong Hua.
Dong Hua then stopped and turned back to stare at Ji Heng intensively. "Don't be so full of yourself, Ji Heng. I clearly made the wrong choice back there, and I deeply regretted it now."
"What do you mean? So you wanted to pick Feng Jiu over me?" Ji Heng asked shamelessly.
"Since you're asking me about it now, I'll have to let you know that she's the one in my heart. I knew about your intentions towards me, and I'm only keeping you around because of your dad. If not, you'll be fired long ago. Also, don't think that I don't know about you trying to harm Feng Jiu. This is the last time that I'm giving you a chance, and if you dared to harm her again, don't blame me for being cruel. From now on, don't even come near me." Dong Hua said coldly, and he walked away.
Ji Heng fell onto the floor upon hearing what Dong Hua said to her. She felt devastated, and she bitterly thought to herself, "What? All that I have done for you all these years were useless? We even met long before you even knew Feng Jiu. Why is she the one in your heart and not me...? This is so unfair! I hate you, Feng Jiu. Watch out; I won't just give up like this." Then she had an evil smile and wiped away her tears. She also got up before others saw her in that ugly state. Then she put on a fake smile and headed back into the office.
----------------------------------------
Dong Hua waited impatiently outside the washroom for Feng Jiu to come out. After waiting for 10 minutes, Feng Jiu finally came out, and she was actually preparing to head home.
She noticed Dong Hua standing outside, and she bowed her head, avoiding eye-contact with him. Dong Hua then blocked her way and said, "Xiao Bai, hear me out. I'm sorry."
Feng Jiu then looked up into his eyes, and he noticed that her eyes were red. "Did Xiao Bai cried? I'm so stupid. It's my fault." He thought to himself. Feng Jiu then replied coldly, "I don't want to hear anything from you now. I'm heading home." Then she moved away and tried to bypass Dong Hua.
Dong Hua grabbed onto her arm gently and said, "Come with me, Xiao Bai." Then he dragged her towards the car park and told her to get into his car. "Where are you bringing me?" Feng Jiu said coldly.
"Keeping my promise." Dong Hua said, but Feng Jiu still refused to get into the car. Then he pinned her against the car and said, "Xiao Bai. Get into the car, please." He also stared intensively into her eyes.
Feng Jiu then thought to herself, "What is Dong Hua trying to do?" Suddenly, she noticed Dong Hua leaning in closer to her as if he wanted to kiss her. She quickly pushed Dong Hua away and said coldly, "Fine. I'll get into the car, but you better tell me where we are going." Feng Jiu then ducked down and quickly sat down in the passenger seat.
Dong Hua quickly went onto the driver seat, and he leaned over to put on the seatbelt for her as usual. Then he started the engine and drove off.
"So, where are we going?" Feng Jiu asked again. Dong Hua briefly looked at her and replied, "You'll see it soon." Then they both kept quiet for the next 5 minutes. Feng Jiu then noticed that Dong Hua brought her to Hao Chi BBQ Skewers.
"What are we doing here?" Feng Jiu asked coldly. Dong Hua then gently dragged her to the same seat when they first ate there. "I promised that I'd bring you here after our project, and now I'm keeping my promise."
Feng Jiu stared at Dong Hua's face and thought to herself, "Dong Hua always have a way to melt my heart. No matter how upset I am at him, I always seem to fall right back onto him... I don't even know how to move on from him. What should I do? I'm doomed to love him forever..." Then she asked coldly, "So what do you have to say to me?"
Dong Hua then ordered food before answering her. "Xiao Bai. I'm sorry for picking Ji Heng's dish. I made a mistake, and I spoke without thinking again. I wanted to pick yours, and your cooking is the best."
Feng Jiu looked away and replied coldly, "Don't think that I'll forgive you just because you're apologizing to me. You need to make it up to me until I'm satisfied."
"I will, Xiao Bai. I will do anything to make it up to you." Dong Hua frowned. Feng Jiu then bowed her head and asked softly, "Dong Hua. Why did you pick Ji Heng's dish over mine then?"
Dong Hua then shook his head and replied, "Because I'm dumb. I wasn't thinking straight and said the wrong thing again. Please forgive me, Xiao Bai."
Feng Jiu then thought to herself, "Can I trust Dong Hua's words now?" Then she said, "But... You always pick Ji Heng over me. Even... back then..." She started mumbling.
"What did you say?" Dong Hua asked since he couldn't hear her properly.
"Nothing. But don't think I will forgive you immediately." Feng Jiu glowered at Dong Hua.
"I won't disappoint you, Xiao Bai. Come, eat some first. I know you like the skewers here." Dong Hua held the stick up to her mouth and shook it lightly, gesturing her to eat. Feng Jiu then snatched the stick from him and replied coldly, "I can eat on my own."
Throughout the dinner, Feng Jiu remained cold towards Dong Hua since she was still upset and sorting out her thoughts. Dong Hua also didn't know what to say, but he was enjoying her company despite the silence between them too.
----------------------------------------
After dinner, they decided to take a stroll at the nearby river behind the Hao Chi BBQ Skewers. Since they also had a lot of leftovers, Feng Jiu packed it up to take it home. Most stores were closed by now since it was Christmas Eve, and there will people around singing Christmas carols with their friends.
"What are you doing on Christmas, Xiao Bai?" Dong Hua asked. Feng Jiu shook her head and replied, "Nothing. I don't have plans since most of my friends are busy." Dong Hua then thought to himself, "How I wish I could spend Christmas with her, but I don't dare to ask her out. Especially when she's still this upset at me."
Right at this moment, a drunk girl ran towards them and banged into Feng Jiu. They instantly recognized the drunk girl as Zhi He.
Zhi He looked at Dong Hua and Feng Jiu, and she yelled, "Oh! It's both of you." Dong Hua then shielded Feng Jiu away from Zhi He as he was afraid that she would harm Feng Jiu again.
"Get lost." Dong Hua said coldly. Zhi He made an evil laugh and pointed at Feng Jiu. "It's because of you and that witch Ji Heng that caused me to lose my job. And now I can't even find a job because of that. It's your fault!"
Feng Jiu then stood in front of Dong Hua and stretched her arms out to the side. Then she whispered to Dong Hua, "Stand behind me, Dong Hua. I'm not scared of Zhi He, and I'll protect you."
Feng Jiu then replied to Zhi He fiercely, "Get lost, Zhi He! I'll call the cops on you if you continue your nonsense. You deserve it for trying to make me lose my job."
Zhi He made an evil laugh again and replied, "You think I care about you? I only did that because she told me to get rid of you. I also did that to save myself." Then Zhi He threw the beer bottle at Feng Jiu.
Dong Hua immediately shielded Feng Jiu, and the beer bottle struck him hard on his back. The beer bottle then fell to the floor and shattered into pieces.
Feng Jiu said worriedly to Dong Hua, "Are you okay, Dong Hua?!" Then she tried to check for any bleeding, but Dong Hua replied, "Don't worry, Xiao Bai. I'm not bleeding. Be careful of the broken glass on the floor."
Zhi He then started shouting and pointed to them, "Everyone, come look at the President of Tai Chen Group and his girlfriend bullying an innocent lady like me."
A few people noticed them, and they started to gather around. Feng Jiu was afraid that it would ruin Dong Hua's reputation, so she instantly held onto his hand tightly and ran away while pulling him on. "Let's escape and hide together now! I will protect you, Dong Hua!"
Dong Hua looked at Feng Jiu's back view while they were running, and he thought to himself, "People always seek protection from me, but this is the first time someone actually wanted to protect me. I didn't love the wrong girl. My Xiao Bai." Then he smiled warmly to himself.
He also thought to himself, "Is Zhi He referring to Ji Heng? So she's the real mastermind? I need to find out the truth and return justice to Xiao Bai."
Feng Jiu then dragged him into a building, and they hid in there for a while. Then she decided that it was still dangerous, and she pulled him into the elevator and pressed the lift button for the top floor. "I think we should be safe now." Feng Jiu said.
The elevator doors closed, and all of a sudden, it stopped moving. It appeared that they didn't notice the "Elevator is down, please avoid using it" sign right outside the door since they were panicking. Everyone else in the building had already gone home to celebrate their Christmas Eve holiday.
Feng Jiu then pressed the emergency button, but there was no response at all. She banged on the lift doors loudly, hoping someone outside would hear them, but it was to no avail as well.
Dong Hua then tried to calm her down, and he took out his phone to call for help. But there wasn't any reception in the elevator. "Xiao Bai, I think we are stuck here for the night. Maybe someone will come to rescue us tomorrow. Luckily, the lights weren't turned off too."
Feng Jiu frowned and replied, "No. It's Christmas tomorrow, and most places are closed. We will be stuck here for two days! I'm scared..." Then she leaned back against the wall.
Dong Hua walked up to her, and he took out his coat. Then he covered her with his coat and tried to console her, "Don't be scared, Xiao Bai. I'm here with you now. I'll try to think of ways to get us out of here as soon as possible. Christmas is not an official holiday in China, so a lot of offices and shops still remain open."
Feng Jiu bowed her head and replied softly, "I'm sorry, Dong Hua. It's my fault that we got stuck in here..." Dong Hua then smoothed her hair and replied, "No, it's my fault for making you mad, and we ended up here. I'm sorry that you have to spend Christmas Eve in an elevator."
Feng Jiu suddenly remembered about the Christmas gift, and she said, "Oh yeah! I have something for you." Then they both slowly sat down beside each other. Feng Jiu opened her purse and took the scarf out. "It's for you! I was your Secret Santa, and I made it by myself." She presented it to Dong Hua and smiled warmly.
Dong Hua took the gift and slowly opened it since he didn't want to damage it. Then he opened the box and saw a beautiful grey scarf in there. "You made this for me?" He asked. He also thought to himself, "Xiao Bai is so good to me and I still hurt her... I'm really dumb."
"Yes! I spend a few days knitting this for you. I'm sorry that it's just a simple one since I was so busy with the project too." Feng Jiu replied. Dong Hua immediately replied, "I love it, Xiao Bai. I love it so much." Then he quickly tried on the scarf.
He smiled happily and asked Feng Jiu, "How do I look? Does it suit me?" Feng Jiu immediately smiled and replied, "Yes! I knew it would look good on you."
Dong Hua then reached into his pocket and took out his Christmas gift for Feng Jiu. "I'm actually your Secret Santa too."
Feng Jiu immediately opened the box and saw the fox hairpin. "Oh my gosh! I love it!" Dong Hua smiled upon hearing that, and he replied, "You want to try it on now?"
Feng Jiu nodded her head, and Dong Hua gently put it on for her. Then he took out his phone and snapped a picture of her wearing the hairpin, and then he showed it to her.
"It's a traditional-looking hairpin, but I love it." Feng Jiu smiled while looking at the picture of her wearing it.
Dong Hua then looked at her smiley face and asked softly, "Xiao Bai, are you still mad at me?"
Feng Jiu pouted and turned away, "Of course." Dong Hua then thought to himself, "It's good that we are stuck here so that I can spend all my time with her. Maybe I could get her to forgive me too." Then he replied, "Tell me what to do so that you'll forgive me?"
"No." Feng Jiu replied coldly.
Right at this moment, the elevator experienced a sudden strong jerk, and then the lights dimmed. Feng Jiu was frightened and started shaking a little. "I want to get out of here. I'm scared!"
Dong Hua immediately pulled her in and hugged her tightly, "I'm sorry, Xiao Bai."
"Dong Hua hugged me again." - Feng Jiu
