[I can't sleep. Want to go out on a date?]
Zi Jue was rooted on his seat. Did he hear it right? He was obviously still at his base, he couldn't possibly be asleep and dreaming, could he? Was he hallucinating then? That wasn't possible too. He was very much sane. Therefore, it could only mean one thing. Yan Qing Shan really was asking him out.
'She's asking me out! What do I say? How do I reply?'
'Calm down, Zi Jue. Be cool, man. You're acting like a sissy.'
'Hells, my baby girl is really asking me out!'
He was so caught up in his thoughts celebrating that Zi Jue didn't realize he has been silent for minutes already. It was only when he heard Yan Qing Shan repeating his name that he snapped out of it.
"Let's go. Let's go out on a... d-date. I'll pick you up. Wait for me."
He said hurriedly while cursing himself silently for actually stuttering the word date.
"Alright, I'll wait for you at the south gate. See you later!"
