"Did I hear it right? What is it you need to talk to me?" Shancai questioned him straight away after XiaYou out of sight.

"Hmm, yes there is... " Daoming Si thinking really hard how to start the conversation.

"Are you going to complain with about those biscuits I made for you, not up to your standard? Right? Well, you can't complain, it was you who asked me to make it, you should be happy I made those ", Shancai blubbering nonsensical, while AhSi just nervously hold his laugh.

"ah yes, that too. I wasn't gonna mention it, but since you brought the subject up. I think I am going to ask you to make more of the. It's the best sweetest cookies biscuits I've ever tasted in my whole life". Daoming Si lied, she hasn't even eat it yet, actually he savour it.

" Really?? " Shancai knew he was lying again.

"It's not too spicy for you? Because I put a lots of amount of chilli in, it's a trend apparently ." she pretended to be serious.

"Oh really, no. Not spicy at all, it just the right amount of chilli !" He formed an "O" shape with his fingers.

" Daoming Si, you really are a terrible liar!" Shancai giggled.

" I don't put any chilli at all, you haven't taste it, have you?" she is yelling at him.

Daoming Si face got flustered. She caught him again.He is trying to make up some logical excuse.

"I am sorry, but Mr Chu was put in safekeeping somewhere. I'll ask him to give it back to me, tonight ".

Brilliant! I developed into a big white liar with her. What's wrong with me!

" it's okay AhSi , no big deal. However was that the only thing you gonna tell me?" asked Shancai still laughing.

Daoming Si now feeling more relax, he can started the real question now, " actually that's not really  the matter Shancai. I just wonder do you have Weibo account? Do you open your Weibo often? "

"Well, I know I am not important or famous person like you, but I do have Weibo account, although I am not on it very often. Why?" she wonder where this conversation is going.

Daoming Si inhales,

"Do you remember He Yuanzi? A girl at my party ..." he speak carefully.

"Yes, I think so , she is your girlfriend, right?" Shancai said uncertain.

"ABSOLUTELY NOT! SHE IS NOT and never will ". Daoming Si suddenly become furious.

"Calm down AhSi, it wasn't me who started to talk about her. Geez!" she surprised how upset AhSi was.

"Because that is the thing, I have not in any relationship at all with her. Not that I like her a bit. I understand it's my mother' idea, but it's nothing to do with me. It's my life, I will decide for  myself." he told her strongly.

"Oh alright, I understand"

" still, I don't get it why you so worked up, it's nothing happening between you two anyway or is it something happened ?" Shancai looking at him puzzled.

" Unfortunately yes, something happened. Really bad! Not between me and her. But she has  done something I detest." AhSi then carry on with showing Shancai something on his phone.


[" ahem, my future husband just leaving my house early Sunday morning. I don't need to tell you the details! Wink wink " ]

It was He Yuanzi's Weibo post.



"I don't understand, AhSi ... did you stay  the night at her house? Although, it's not uncommon for young couples nowadays, ... I guessed ", Shancai didn't know what to say.

Daoming Si now really pissed of.

"That's exactly my worst nightmare for everyone having that ill perception! It was so not true in so many levels. At first I am not his future husband, secondly I did not stayed over. Yes, I did go to their house yesterday morning, just because my mother begged me to apologise for my rude behaviour towards her at the party. I was only less than 10 minutes over there. Third,  I don't have habit visiting any girls house at all. You must believe me, Shancai! ". Daoming Si really in a mission to make her to trust him. He really hope she understood his reason. He was after all telling the truth.

"Okay, although I don't understand why, but I can see it's  very important for you , for people to believe you, yes I trust you. I hope that's make you feel slightly better". she uttered.

" thank you , thank you Shancai! You never know how I feel so relief right now." He was very close to hug her, but of course that's not wise thing to do.

" However AhSi, you do realise you are not being honest about he third that  visiting girls house thing, I am a girl you know and you are visiting me in my house, so...? " she teased him.

Daoming Si speechless for a moment but quickly responded,

" but, but you are different... you are my friend! Aren't you ?" he stuttered.

"Hahaha, am I? ..... . how do I qualify to be your friend. I want to know". Shancai giggled again.

"Well, at first...." before AhSi finished his sentence, Mrs Dong come,

"Daoming Si, I would like to invite you to stay for dinner, if you don't mind. I don't know you are coming, it's very simple dishes, some meat soup, and stir fry tofu vegetables, you might not like it".she is  very hesitant.

Daoming Si so tempted to stay longer and having dinner with them, however he decided he should not. Something telling him, he must not over staying for politeness.

"I would love to stay and taste your I am sure very delicious food, but I think I must go now. My mother probably waiting for me. Thank you for the invite for dinner Mrs Dong, perhaps next time". He is calculating her response.

"Of course, you are welcome, come here again anytime ". Mrs Dong responses  as exactly what Daoming Si expected would be.

"I will " he grinned.
