Shi Nianyao was a little embarrassed as she smoothed down her hair. She cleared her throat and said, “Let’s go in.”
Mo Xicheng lowered his head and looked at her, asking, “Have you eaten something?”
She coughed a little guiltily and said, “Yes, I have.”
The man laughed and then, like performing a magic trick, held out a cup of soymilk towards her. He said, “Drink this for now.”
She paused and looked up at him, astonished.
Actually, how could she possibly have had breakfast?
She had overslept and, furthermore, although Mo Xicheng had said he was at home, she had clearly heard the food sellers touting their breakfast offers in the background.
Morning traffic jams in Beijing were an unchanging reality.
If it hadn’t been for the fact that they had to take a photo, she would have rushed over straight away, but she had had to wash up first.
Looking at the cup of soymilk in her hand, she could only feel that…
Her idol was heart-meltingly considerate!
She took a sip of the soymilk and walked behind Mo Xicheng, as they headed into the city hall building.
At the entrance, however, the security officer stopped her and said, “Miss, food is not allowed in here.”
Shi Nianyao: …
She quickly took another two sips of the drink. Then she realized something and she turned towards Mo Xicheng. “Have you had breakfast?”
The man’s eyes fell on her rosy lips, and his heart went wild as scenes of that passionate kiss from last night played in his mind. He gulped as he heard Shi Nianyao talking and quickly replied, “No, not yet.”
Shi Nianyao paused and asked, “What do you want to eat then?”
Very casually, his hand reached out to grab hers.
In a daze, Shi Nianyao allowed her hand to be led as the man raised the cup of soy milk towards himself.
He removed his mask and took a few sips from the cup.
After this, he lowered his hand, acted like nothing had happened and then put his mask back on.
Shi Nianyao: …
Shi Nianyao: …!!
She stared at the soy milk and suddenly let out a piercing shriek.
Arghhhh!
Her idol had drank from her cup.
But…
No, she mustn’t show so much excitement.
They had already kissed, what was with drinking from the same cup?
She cleared her throat and, lowering her head, she continued drinking from the cup extremely calmly.
After she took another sip, she suddenly realized that her idol had just drunk from it. And now she was drinking from it again.
Her ears turned red at once.
Then she heard his lowered voice say in an amused tone, “Yao Yao, why have your ears turned red?”
She replied, “… Is that so? The weather’s a bit warm perhaps.”
He continued. “Is it because drinking from the same cup is like indirectly kissing me?”
Shi Nianyao: …!!
Indirectly!! Kissing!!
How could her idol say this so casually?
Her face turned as red as a baboon’s butt at once.
She didn’t speak another word, but she nervously gulped down the soy milk in a few mouthfuls.
After drinking that big cup of soy milk, she tossed it into the bin. When she looked up, Mo Xicheng had already drawn out a napkin and was reaching out to wipe her lips.
The gesture was intimate yet casual, it made her heart pound wildly.
Still unnerved, she heard the man saying, “Alright, let’s go.”
She nodded.
The couple had to take a number and then queue up in the lobby.
Because a picture of them was required, they had to go and have their photograph taken together.
When it was their turn, they walked into the photo studio.
