By the time Luo Xiaolei stepped out of her room, she was dressed and ready to go. She looked stunning as usual, exuding such a fresh and gorgeous look, like a breathtaking morning blossom.
Her gaze fell on the man sitting on the sofa and the words she was about to say got stuck on her throat for a moment. It was because the man remained siting there in the same exact position from when she left him as if he hadn’t move a single inch at all. Err... did he really sit there like a statue and not make a single move? No way, right?
Looking at him, Luo Xiaolei couldn’t help but imagine him in his chibi self with a white ring above his head again. His angelic image was starting to push away the devil version of him out of Luo Xiaolei’s head.
Gladly, before Luo Xiaolei fell deeply into her daydreams, the man finally moved and turned to her. When their eyes met, the chibis in Luo Xiaolei’s head disappeared and she immediately spoke.
"I’m ready." She said but the man remained silent. His eyes were locked onto her, almost as if he just saw a magnificent meteor fall from the sky putting him in a daze. His hands slowly moved, putting down the magazine on his lap.
Luo Xiaolei pressed her lips tight when the man just looked at her without saying anything. The next moment, she walked closer to him.
The clicking sound of her heels on the floor seemed so loud because of the deep silence, awakening Yu Chen from his stunned mode. But despite him getting his senses back to life, the man’s eyes still didn’t leave her. He gazed at her navy blue dress waving so graciously, showing off her sexy curves as she walked. Her wavy hair complemented her flawless features. She had the flamboyance of youth and innocence but at the same time, exuding an unrivalled confidence of an adult, radiating an intelligent beauty.
At that moment, his lips curved in a slight and quick mysterious smile. It was just a fleeting moment that Luo Xiaolei didn’t even notice it.
The man then stood as she reached him. He was about to stretch out his hand to lead her out and say ’let’s go’ but...
Luo Xiaolei’s hand was already hanging in the air in front of him and she was smiling at him while gesturing at the man to take her hand.
Yu Chen froze. He was beaten by her again. As he looked at her hand, an indescribable feeling was howling within him.
"Mr. Yu, let’s go." she said and Yu Chen finally raised his face. But then, the man just looked at her, not moving to take her hand, which made Lou Xiaolei feel awkward. His expression was still the same, unchanging as ever, but his silence made her feel under pressure. Err... could it be that he didn’t like being treated nicely like this? But Hinari-sensei stressed this first and foremost rule in wooing a man! How could the great love guru be wrong?
The golden book of love advice Luo Xiaolei was reading said, ’treat him like he is your princess’ and she emphasized that this was the most important rule. It was even stated that real men could never resist someone who treated him with all the gentleness, courtesy and respect that he deserved. Luo Xiaolei truthfully agreed with it. To her, there was no better method than this. But this Yu Chen was... wait... maybe, he was just not used being treated like this? That could be it, right?
Still confident with her method, Luo Xiaolei held her head up and smiled. The next moment, she suddenly took Yu Chen’s hand and pulled him as she led him out.
