"Are you ready to go?" I nodded and Jeno and I walked to his house again.
"So...only the mafia is home right?" He nodded.
"Hewants to have a meeting with only you and him. I hope you leave the same impact you left on me." I looked at him with furrowed eyebrows.
"What do you mean by that?" He shook his head and he put on the code and the gates opened for us to come in.

He opened the door and he took me to a room that had the sign that said "Meeting Room" then he smiled at me and waved goodbye. Without thinking, I grabbed on his sleeves.
"D-do you have to leave?" He looked at my hand with wide eyes until he held my hand with a gentle smile and squeezed it.
"I know you can do it." Then he let go and I watched his figure disappear. It felt cold all of a sudden. Even from the door I could feel the cold aura coming from inside the room. I took a deep breathe and I went in.

I saw a very dark figure in the back. It was one of those long rectangles and I just chose to sit the opposite way from him. I didn't really care because I was going to get in anyway. I made eye contact with him with a cold gaze. I sat back and waited for him to speak.
"Name?" His voice was low and deep.
"Shang Xici." He then tilted his head.
"No mafia? Master? Sir? Hm?" I didn't really care so I talked back.
"You aren't my mafia, master, sir yet. Right?" I could see him taken aback but he got his normal form back.
".....I like you. You're in." I smirked and I left the room. But when my hand reached the doorknob he stopped me.
"Will you call me mafia, master, sir now?" I turned around and I shook my head.
"You haven't shown me your true strength and powers as a mafia. I got in, but I haven't seen your worthiness. Im a bit stubborn. Im only going to call you master, sir, and mafia if you deserve it." He gritted his teeth but I gave zero fucks and I left the room.

Jeno suddenly came out of no where and he hugged me. I was shooketh for a while but I slowly hugged back. He let go and he asked me a question.
"Did you get in?" I looked up at him and I smiled and I nodded. He smiled happily and he twirled me around in glee. He put me down and he coughed. I looked at him still shooketh.

"Y-you s-should eat more." I nodded awkwardly and he left the hallway running. I could hear from the other hallway his screaming. I chuckled and I shook my head. Till I saw Luna coming towards me.
"Don't you know his feelings yet?" I looked at her in confusion.
"What? His feelings? What about it." She shook her head. She chuckled at me and she rubbed my head because she was so fucking tall.
"You'll see." Her phone rang and I quickly glanced at her phone. Had the username "Dawning Li" I was thinking, maybe it could be a different Dawn. Dawn seems really nice yesterday though?
"I gotta go sorry Xici." She walked away and I heard her say.
"Hey Dawn!" I tilted my head.

Could Dawn be a secret mafia member spying our team.

"Jeno I'm going to go home now, bye. See you tomorrow." He stopped me though.
"What about our poster?" I sighed.
"Jeno tomorrow is no school because the principal got a heart attack." His mouth gaped open.
"Idiot, we will do it tomorrow. And Jeno, tomorrow I might be a bit...lets see...different." I smirked at hims and I left the mansion.

I went home and I changed into a white blouse neck with jeans. I got my purse and I put on my black heels. I got out of my house and locked it. I look side to side before I went on to the secret lab. I would always walk but this time im taking my car because I feel someone's presence.

Jeno POV

Oh no! Xici forgot a piece of her notes and I can't give it to her tomorrow as well. I could just wait, nah lets just go. I still saw Xici's figure in the back but right when I opened the door she made a left turn. I quickly fastened my pace to catch up with her. I saw her go into this house but I was still just a few miles away. I walked even more faster but when her door suddenly opened I hid because I got scared.

I saw Xici come out in a simple but formal outfit. I thought she would be in some sweatpants or something. I saw her looking around suspiciously but I don't want to assume to fast. She had a serious face on while she went into her car. I didn't know she could drive. Her car then started and she drove away somewhere.

....I wonder where she could be going. Guess I'll have to give her her notes tomorrow.

Xici POV

Someone was hiding. The smell was familiar. Just...can't get to the person who belongs to that smell. Its in the back of my head but still.

I arrived at the lab and I went inside. I went in to see Herin, Dawn, Ningning, Lami, Koeun, and Jungyeon all looking at me ready to go.
"Everyone hop in my car! ITS XICI'S MAKEOVER TIME!" Herin yelled.
