Yangyang watches Xiali as she heads back to make more drinks. He starts to feel worry about her just by staring at her from behind. The thought of how many people are after her scares him.

Why would someone go after such a kind girl? This world is too cruel. Yangyang thought.

"How's Ten?" Xiali ask.

"He's getting better," Yangyang says.

It didn't took long for Xiali's shift to come to an end. Xiali and Yangyang walks out of the bar with Lucas already waiting in his car.

"I'll be going now," Xiali says as she smiles at Yangyang.

Yangyang stares at Xiali for a moment. How he had missed seeing her smile. Tonight he was grateful that he had the chance to her smile again after a while.

Yangyang smiles back at her. "Take care, Xiali."

Xiali nods. "I will. Goodbye, Yangyang," says Xiali before she walks away from Yangyang to enter Lucas's car. The car soon drives away from the bar, leaving Yangyang standing alone in front of the retro-style bar.

Zhang Xia Li....please stay safe. Yangyang thought.

A few minutes later...

Lucas and Xiali arrives at a dimsum restaurant not far from Lucas's apartment. The two exits the car and walks inside together.

At Dim Sum Summary...

Lucas and Xiali walks inside to find an empty table at the corner. The two decides to take a seat there. The waiter soon approaches them to take their orders.

"What can I get for you?" ask the waiter.

"I'll have my usuals," Lucas says.

"Ah, same like yesterday?"

"Yes," Lucas says.

"Ok, and what about you?" ask the waiter to Xiali.

"I'll just have a bowl of chicken soup and a cup of tea," says Xiali as she keeps her vision on the menu.

"Ok. Anything else?" ask the waiter.

Lucas turns his head to Xiali as he gives another one of his warm smiles. "You're not trying the dim sum?"

"No. I'm in the mood for chicken soup actually," says Xiali.

"Come on, the dim sum here is pretty famous. You should give it a try," says Lucas. "I'll have another of the usuals for the lady."

Well, Xiali couldn't debate with that. Lucas decides to order more dimsums since he insisted her to try. The waiter eventually walks back to the kitchen to prepare their orders.

Lucas turns his head to face Xiali. "You know, since I got here, so far this is the best dim sum restaurant I've tried. And do you know what's their most popular dish?" ask Lucas.

"What?" ask Xiali with a curious tone.

"Pork shu mai," says Lucas with a smile. "As I remember from the last time we had dinner together, you told me that was your favorite dim sum, right?" he stares into Xiali's deep brown eyes.

Xiali just smiles as she sees Lucas staring at her with a confident and deep look in his eyes. She is a bit surprised to know that the cheeky boy remembered her favorite dim sum during their conversation the last time they went out together.

Xiali turns her head to the side slowly with a shy smile. "You remembered correctly. And as for you, I remember you said your favorite was shrimp dumplings. Am I right?"
