Li Jaqi felt like walking on clouds!  Caesar had declared himself! After years and years of waiting for him, he finally found the courage to confess his feelings to her!
While they were playing Uno in the house in the woods, her eyes were only for him, who continued to caress her knee with one hand.
The guys had joined Yue and Dylan on Sunday morning.
"Damn! I was hoping it would never happen! Look what we have to put up with now!" Connor exclaimed suddenly.
Everyone turned to Jaqi and Caesar and laughed.
"Stickier than glue" Wang Zi Wei complained.
"From now on you will see much worse things, I warn you!" Caesar grinned.
"Ugh! No!" they all screamed.
Jaqi laughed and hugged the boy.
"I am so happy for you! I have been waiting for this moment since we were children! It has always been as if your destiny had already been written!" sighed Xiao Wen, dreamily.
"Tsk! How much nonsense".
Sui He's voice interrupted that moment of joy.
"What do you mean?" Jaqi asked her.
She didn't like that girl at all. It was the first time she had seen her and she already couldn't stand her.
"Sorry, but I don't believe in these things. Destiny, soul mate, love... You will probably break up in a couple of years."
Jaqi was about to reply in a not very kind way... That was her happy moment! It was her Christmas day!  And that woman wanted to spoil it with cynical and useless talk!
Jaqi was not known for her patience...
However, she was surprised when it was Yue who spoke, in a tone so cold that she managed to cool the whole room...
"So why are you dating Dylan?"  she asked to Sui He.
"Why? What's the problem?"  Sui He grinned.
Jaqi looked at Dylan, who was sitting next to Sui He but had his eyes on Yue. He looked as surprised as everyone else.
"The problem is, he's looking for true love. Don't play with him" Shen Yue replied.
"And you know that, don't you? You, his neighbor, you know what he needs... Right? Dylan thinks like me, otherwise he wouldn't keep asking me out. Neither of us here is stupid. he's exactly like me. So stop trying to change him."
"Stop it" Wang He Di told her seriously.
Sui He rolled her eyes and threw her cards on the floor.
"Let's go out?" she asked Dylan.
He nodded and followed her... Before leaving, however, he turned to Yue and said: "Sorry. I'm gomma talk to her. She won't treat you like that anymore."
As the two left, Shen Yue jumped to her feet.
"That stupid chicken!" she barked.
She took some plates from the table and carried them to the kitchen, where she filled a sponge with detergent and started scrubbing them vigorously.
The rest of the group exchanged shocked looks.
It was rare to see their Yue so angry!
They all followed her.
The small kitchen in the house in the woods was super crowded!
"Yueyue?" Darren called her.
"I can't stand her! Have you seen how she treats him ?! Ever since she arrived, all she and Didi have done has been devouring each other's lips! Who the hell would be able to kiss for nearly eight hours straight without ever speaking?! She will ruin his lips! Besides, she's unpleasant! Don't tell me she isn't! The first thing she said to me when we introduced ourselves was: Oh, so you're the neighbor! With that idiot grin on her face! What does she want?! Is she making fun of me?! And Didi is as stupid as she is! He told me he wanted a serious relationship and look who the hell he's been dating!"
"Maybe he really likes her... Maybe she's what he's looking for..." Connor tried to say.
Yue's ashen gaze made him shiver.
"No! Those aren't kisses between two people who like each other!"
Her mind flew to what she had done the night before... She blushed suddenly and shook her head.
"I agree with her" Jaqi interjected.
"Ok, but what can we do? Didi is an adult, he can go out with whoever he wants. We must try to be friends with Sui He too," Caesar replied.
"You have to try to open his eyes! Apparently he doesn't understand anything of what I tell him, so I leave it to you to explain that this is not a normal relationship!" Yue snapped.
"Yueyue... Are you getting so angry  out of friendship or out of jealousy?"
Everyone looked at Darren with wide eyes.
They knew that question would anger Yue even more.
"Jealous of whom?" muttered the girl.
"I have a feeling you like Dylan."
"I have a feeling you don't know what you're talking about."
Just then Wang He Di and Sui He returned and joined them.
The girl went straight to Yue.
"Sorry" she said, annoyed.
It was clear that Dylan had forced her to do it.
"Sorry" Yue replied.
There was not an ounce of sincerity in their words.

On the return trip, Sui He got into the car with Shen Yue and Wang He Di.
The boy kept peering in the rearview mirror to look at Yue, who was sitting in the back seat.
While Sui He kept talking about some tattoos she had done (only that day Dylan found out she was a tattoo artist), Shen Yue kept her eyes closed, in silence.
After accompanying Sui He home, Didi turned to Yue.
"You can sit in the front now," he told her.
"It's okay. I don't want to get up" she replied.
Dylan was upset... He wanted to talk to her... But he couldn't if she was so far.
"I disappointed you?" he asked her suddenly.
He heard her sigh.
"No... I behaved badly. If you like to live like this, that's okay. I'm nobody to give you advice."
"But..."
"Can you accelerate a little? I'm tired."
They arrived in their building and, in silence, they opened the doors of their respective apartments.
But Dylan couldn't leave her like that... He knew he had let her down.
He had told her that he had found a sweet and caring girl, a girl he really liked. He had filled her with lies about her.
But instead he had introduced her to a girl who had clearly admitted in front of everyone that she was going out with him just for fun.
He felt stupid.
He had decided to keep dating her only because after so much time hanging out with different people, he had realized that he would never find a girl that he would lose his mind about...
Sui He was his cover to make Yue believe that he was continuing to search for what she thought would make him happy.
He wasn't much better than Sui He.
They were clearly exploiting each other.
But Yue wasn't stupid, she understood it and he knew it.
He hugged her from behind.
"I'm sorry" he whispered.
Yue squeezed his hands and then broke free from his embrace.
"That's ok, you idiot!" she smiled at him.
"That's not true... You're angry."
"No, really. Didi, no lies... Should I stop pushing you into a serious relationship?"
Wang He Di thought about it for a moment.
"I don't want to keep looking anymore... If it happens, it will happen naturally" he replied.
Yue nodded with a small smile.
Dylan ruffled her hair.
"I told you you would!" he then exclaimed, amused.
"What?" Yue was confused.
"That you would have pulled out your claws after you met her!"
Yue stamped his foot hard.
"I'm not jealous!"
"Oh you should have seen yourself! You were sooooo sexy looking at her with that proud look! GRR!"
Dylan ran back to his door, knowing full well what he was risking.
"I'M NOT JEALOUS!" she yelled at him as he was hiding in his apartment.
"GRRRRR!"
Dylan burst out laughing when he heard her give the door a little bang.
"I don't want to see your ugly face anymore, Wang He Di!"
"You love my face, Tiger!"
"No! You're ugly! You're uglier than cow poop!"
Dylan laughed like a fool.
He opened the door and found her still standing in the hall, sulking.
But as soon as she saw him, she laughed too.
"A cow poop, cutie?! Really?!"
Again, he was dying to kiss her.
But that time he had no doubts: it was not mere attraction... It was much more. She was much more.
They both suddenly became serious and they lost in each other's eyes.
Shen Yue took a step back, as the urge to touch Dylan's lips came back overwhelming.
"I'm going to sleep" she whispered, almost out of breath.
He nodded and gently stroked her face.
"Goodnight, cutie".
"Goodnight... Cow poop".
"SHEN YUE!"

Ciao!
I wanted to update yesterday, but Wattpad wouldn't let me 😅
I hope you enjoyed these two chapters... 💛💜
Dylan and Yue are close to finally understanding their feelings!
He has already recognized them, Yue is still in denial... But I'm glad she was the one who lost control for once and kissed him (even if he didn't notice) ❤️
Thank you very much for your comments... You know I need them so much ☺️
A big hug,
Lucrezia
