BXBX NOVEL Chapter 100: A lingering kiss!
"Didn't know you two were high school friends, that really came as a surprise." Mei Xiu spoke as she took another bite of the croissant.
Zhao Tian just smiled as he continued to eat his dessert cake. *ring* At this time, his phone rang and he picked up the call "Daiyu?"
"Tian! Where are you?" He heard the excited voice of Ah Daiyu and Zhao Tian spoke "Third floor at the cafe."
"OK, I will be there in two minutes."
As he hung up, Mei Xiu hurriedly asked "What happened? Is Miss Daiyu coming here?"
Zhao Tian gave a nod "She will be here now..."
A little later, Mei Xiu's eyes lightened up seeing the woman walking toward their table. As she came closer, Mei Xiu stood up from her seat and stammered as she didn't know what to say "U-Uh..."
"Tiannnnn." Ah Daiyu came over and quickly hugged Zhao Tian who was sitting. Mei Xiu smiled awkwardly as she was completely ignored.
As she retracted the hug, Ah Daiyu tried to sit on Zhao Tian's lap but Zhao Tian caught her waist "Place your ass somewhere else."
Ah Daiyu pouted her lips "You are rude to a woman." she spoke as she stood up. "Have I ever been nice to you?" Zhao Tian asked taking another spoonful of the cake.
Ah Daiyu smiled wryly as she pulled the chair sitting close to Zhao Tian. "Xiu, sit." Mei Xiu gave a slight nod and sat on her seat.
Hearing Zhao Tian, Ah Daiyu glanced at Mei Xiu "Bei... Xiu, right?" Mei Xiu shook her head gently "It's Mei Xiu, Miss Daiyu."
"Haan, Mei Xiu." Ah Daiyu muttered and Zhao Tian spoke "I am surprised that you actually became an actress."
Ah Daiyu smiled proudly "I told you, I would surely become an actress one day. Well, one of my two dreams became true."
Mei Xiu got curious hearing this "What's your other dream, Miss Daiyu."
Ah Daiyu cast a glimpse at Zhao Tian as she spoke "Of course to become this guy's girlfriend. Well, not only me, many girls in that school wished to be his girlfriend."
Oh? Mei Xiu couldn't help but steal a quick glance at Zhao Tian as he gently took a scoop of cake to eat. Well, she wouldn't refuse that Zhao Tian is handsome and girls would fall in love with him.
"But this guy flatly rejected everyone, even me..." Ah Daiyu spoke sulking her lips. Zhao Tian asked, "Do you know what Ying'er would say if she were with us right now?"
-_- A dry smile appeared on Ah Daiyu's lips "A bitch. She has never called me by my name." Zhao Tian chuckled softly hearing this.
Zhao Tian spoke "But I heard you got a boyfriend at the end of high school." Hearing this Ah Daiyu nodded her head "While I tried to pursue you, an underclassman was following me."
"Hearing his sincere confession, I gave him a chance and we easily got along with each other. He is really cute and was my type... and I am still in a relationship with him."
"Good for you!" Zhao Tian said and Ah Daiyu giggled hearing this. As she recollected on the past memories, her eyes grew tender remembering how she and other girls relentlessly followed Zhao Tian to get his attention.
A soft sigh escaped her lips as she leaned back on the chair "I still remember the day my boyfriend confessed to me... life has changed after that. After finishing high school, I entered the film industry and made my debut a year ago."
"Now I am the leading actress in this show and I still can't believe I did this... life sure is unpredictable." a low mutter escaped her lips.
"And what's more surprising is that I will reunite with you in a place like this and even your girlfriend is a huge fan of mine." She spoke looking at Mei Xiu.
E-Eh? Mei Xiu hurriedly shook her head, a faint blush on her face "It's true that I am your big fan, but I am not Tian's boyfriend. I am...his T- friend."
Ah Daiyu raised an eyebrow "I see... seems like you lied to enter the event."
Mei Xiu gave a wry nod "Yeah..." *tap* At this time, the waitress walked near their table "Mam? Your order?"
Ah Daiyu looked at her and spoke "An Expresso." The waitress nodded her head and left the table. Ah Daiyu's eyes then fell on the half-eaten cake in front of Zhao Tian and she couldn't help but giggle "Looks like your love for sweet things has not changed."
When Mei Xiu heard this, she was surprised "He loves sweet things?"
A chuckle left Ah Daiyu's lips "I became friends with him only after I bought him a dessert."
Ohhhhh! Mei Xiu mused hearing this, Then I will also make sweet things for him. Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow "How do you know I like desserts?"
Ah Daiyu shrugged "Well, I pursued you for like two years so of course I know what my crush likes to eat."
Her Expresso arrived and the hearty conversations continued as the time passed.
Hugging Zhao Tian, Ah Daiyu let out a sigh and pulled back from the hug. "Let's meet again sometime..." Zhao Tian met her gaze with a gentle nod "Yeah..."
Mei Xiu approached Ah Daiyu with hesitant steps, her voice quivering as she asked, "Um, Miss Daiyu... would you mind if we took a selfie together?" Ah Daiyu laughed and nodded her head "Okay, then!"
The two of them moved closer, their smiles widening as they posed for the camera. Looking at the selfie on the mobile screen, Mei Xiu was overjoyed.
Ah Daiyu looked over at Zhao Tian with a smile "Tian, let us take a selfie too." Zhao Tian shook his head "I am not interested."
Ah Daiyu's lips twitched "Come on, Tian... I don't know if I'll ever meet you again... so just a selfie." A sigh left his lips hearing this "Hm."
"Hehe!" Ah Daiyu smiled and moved beside him as she raised her mobile to take a selfie. *click* Admiring the result, Ah Daiyu couldn't help but mutter a satisfied "Perfect!" as she gazed at the selfie on her screen.
"I will send this picture to the group to make the girls in our school jealous." As she opened the group covo she was surprised that the conversation had already ignited and was in full swing.
Then she noticed the photo when she hugged Zhao Tian had already spread in the group. "Oh, they are quite fast huh..." she mused as she sent the selfie too.
"Hehe!" With a mischievous grin she turned to look at Zhao Tian "I am leaving, Tian!" Zhao Tian nodded his head "En. See you later"
Ah Daiyu waved to Mei Xiu and slowly walked away from the table. But as she took a few steps, she stopped and turned back to look at Zhao Tian her eyes lingering on his face. Tian...
*tap* *tap* She hurriedly ran towards him and Zhao Tian was quite confused "Daiyu?" Without wasting a moment, Ah Daiyu hugged him, planting a tender kiss on his cheek, leaving a lingering touch *chu*
Zhao Tian squinted his eyes "You have a boyfriend." Ah Daiyu pulled back the hug, a gentle smile on her lips "That's why I kissed your cheek."
"When I was in high school, I always wanted to kiss you on the lips...but now I'm content with just kissing you on the cheek. You are my first love after all.... Ok, I am leaving." *tap *tap*
As she walked away, she saw her phone ringing. With a smile, she attended the call "Babe. Did you see the pictures?"
"Yeah, I am surprised you met Senior Tian again..."
"Hehe, I even kissed his cheek." She knew her boyfriend was an admirer of Zhao Tian in the past and she knew he wouldn't mind it much and she doesn't like to hide things from him.
"Wha- Can't blame you... since I would have done the same..."
"What? Why are you gay?"
"*chuckle* Just kidding... is the event finished?"
"yeah..."
Zhao Tian turned back to Mei Xiu whose face was filled with shock "Since the event is finished, shall we leave?"
H-Huh? Mei Xiu came out of her shock "Uh, no there is still one event left."
