Once they finished laughing, Xiao Yunhua and Qiang Yue went to the small shack on beach to enjoy a snack-like breakfast.
The two spoke more and more, getting to know each other well.
They played, as suggested by Xiao Yunhua, a game of twenty questions. She got to know his favorite food, and he got to know hers.
She got to know his favorite color, and he got to know hers.
Then, after deciding that they've wasted enough silly questions, Xiao Yunhua boldly asked the man if he had a girlfriend.
She knew he didn't, but she just needed the confirmation. As expected, the man was flustered.
But in the end, he shook his head. "Don't have much time to date. On duty twenty-four-seven."
Xiao Yunhua nodded. He fired the question back at her, and she honestly answered. "I did date, but he and I broke it off."
Their questions seemed like they were on a first date. And by how much they both enjoyed it, their 'first date' was going very well.
