Demon in Disguise

He Adores You

"Babe!" Qiang hears Chen's voice as she walks away from Mr. Wang's house but continues to walk. "Baaaabe!" Chen whines, she could hear his voice getting closer.

"Shut up or I'll get Ai Hui on your ass." Qiang wasn't one to curse but Chen tends to make her profanity level rise.

"Ai Hui? That cat is here?" Chen's voice was full of disgust, she could picture his ugly face contorting into that of an uglier one.

"Don't talk about my cat like that." She snaps, "I'll castrate your testicles.." Chen also tends to lower her tolerance and raise her annoyance level.

"Why are you being so mean to me." Chen whines from behind her. "I've never done anything to you."

When she didn't reply he skips beside her and smiles brightly, "Where are you going?"

Qiang finally looks at Chen and realizes how clean he looks; his stubble was shaven, his face washed and his curly hair styled nicely. He was also wearing pretty decent clothes and he didn't stink like dirty laundry. "What? Like what you see?" Chen smirks.

"You look pretty nice today Chen, who are you trying to impress?" Qiang stares at Ai Hui who was a few steps ahead of her.

"Well, why don't you guess?" Chen teasingly bumps his arm into Qiang's and she squints at him.

"Chen I'm not trying to play games here, if you want to flirt go find someone else."

He sighs, "Okay.." The mood darkens and he silently walks next to her, looking around now and then. "Where are you going?" he asks after a long silence.

"To Ying Ai's floral shop." Qiang picks up Ai Hui before they cross the street, she didn't want anybody speeding down the street and hitting her cat. The community is safe but after what happened to BiYu this morning everybody was on edge.

Ai Hui hisses at Chen and tries to jump out of Qiang's arms. She holds her tight, "Ai Hui, calm down." She tells her cat gently, "You can fight him later." She whispers to the cat, that seemed to have calmed her down, just a little bit.

"She's with Satan I swear." Chen walks about three feet behind Qiang, eyeing Ai Hui wearily. "Why does she hate me so much? I still have the scars from the last time she attacked me."

"That's because you touched something you weren't supposed to." Qiang tells him.

"I only touched you." he mutters.

"You aren't allowed to touch me." She sticks her tongue out at him as she pushes the door of the floral shop open, the bells jingling as the door hits it. "Ying Ai! It's me, Qiang." Qiang calls out into the shop.

"Qiang?" A pretty face appears from a rack of flowers, Ying Ai's face brightens at the sight of Qiang. "Qiang! How are you doing? I haven't seen you in.. three days." She holds up three slender fingers, nails painted a shade of light pink. Ying Ai walks over to Qiang and strokes Ai Hui behind the ears, "Ah.. how cute."

"Hello Ying Ai." Chen greets.

"Hello Chen, how are you doing?" Ying Ai looks at Chen with a pleasant smile on her face.

"Good, thank you. You are looking quite ravishing today, Miss Ying Ai." Chen bows and looks up at her, giving her a wink. Qiang rolls her eyes at the "compliment" Chen had used on her earlier, 'ravishing' is probably the only big word that man knows. When Chen is groomed he looks quite attractive, Qiang thought to herself. He could be a successful playboy, but it's too bad he's dressed like a bum most of the time.

"I came to see how you were doing." Qiang tells Ying Ai, walking around. "I just got worried, with the chaos from this morning and all...my work closed down today because of it."
