Promise <约定>

I'll be sure to lift you if you promise me

◆

Yi Xing had been very busy since I came.

Says that he wants me to try the dress but I actually go alone with his personal assistant since he has many jobs to do in Changsha.

He has a few filming to do here so I finally know the reason why he asked me to book a flight to Changsha instead of Beijing which is where he lives.

"Hui Rong, right?" His assistant spoke up when we are in the car, on the way going to the place where Yi Xing said that he had already picked a few dress for me, "Yeah, you?" I look at her and she smiles, "Pei Lin." She offered me a handshake and I gladly accept, "Are you Yi Xing's girlfriend?"

Hmm, I knew she would ask.

Now I start to regret that I actually promised to come since what I hated the most is getting attention and I just did something which will lead to that.

"No, I already have a boyfriend. We are best friend." I explained and gave her a smile too.

If I don't say that, I bet she would keep asking, "Ah, I see." She nodded.

Then it was all the way silent until we finally arrived at a fashion clothing shop and she leads me, "Can you bring out those dresses which Yi Xing picked yesterday?" She communicated with the shop assistant as I just waited at the couch while looking around.

"Hui Rong," I darted my gaze to Pei Lin, "Can you follow me for awhile?" I nodded and obey, "Yi Xing picked 5 dresses yesterday." She bring me to the changing room and man, the changing room is huge!

All the dresses are being hung nicely on the wall as 2 among the dress are black in colour and the rest are white.

I gently hold the lace fabric of the sleeve in my hand.

He picked all long sleeves for me.

He's very thoughtful isn't he?

"What colour is he wearing?" I asked and Pei Lin shrugged, "He says it depends on which dress you pick."

I shook my head a little as I smile, "Okay then." I thought I'm the one who told him that first.

I looked at those dresses again, examining it.

Some are long down to the ankle while some are short up to the knees.

At the end I decided to try all since I have a hard time choosing which one to wear.

Yeoksi, I am too thin now as I look at how the first dress I wore lay flat all the way down my body on the mirror and I look really pale now.

Is a white dress which the end stops right above my knees.

"Hmm, not good." Pei Lin gave me a no when I came out with the dress, "I know right?" She took the black one now, "Maybe black would look better. We just get a size smaller for you when you decided which one to wear." She passes it to me and I took it.

I came out with the black dress now but I'm not used to having my back being exposed as the cutting is a V shape down to my spine, "Oh wow, I think everyone will stare at your back instead."

See, she knows.

"I feel so exposed." I said and she took a long white dress now, "Try this."

Again, I lifted the edge and came out as the end is dragging on the floor, "This actually looks good." She commented as I turned to look at the full length mirror that they have outside here, seeing myself in the dress as my chest was actually quite exposed, "It would be perfect if here is covered up." I said and she takes that as a cue of me saying no to this dress, "Then the black one would definitely suit you." She handed it to me and look at it, right, the chest part is covered up but exposing my back a little.
