Ethan Lu smiled that didn't reach his eyes. Slowly walking towards them, he stretched his arms out as a base to maintain his distance from Lexi's unmoving figure. Ethan Lu stopped near Elliot Gong and wrapped his arms around his friend's neck before dragging him a couple of steps away; to be precise. an arm's length away from her.
"This is the right distance, my friend." He affirmed with his usual cozy tone as he put down his stretched out arm.
Lexi and Elliot Gong were both puzzled by Ethan's sudden appearance as neither of them didn't expect him to turn up. Raising his brows, Elliot Gong turned to see Ethan's grinning face as he stared at Lexi.
The moment Elliot Gong saw Ethan's sparkling eyes and an unreadable glint that flashed across them, Elliott's brows slightly creased. He was familiar with this -- this was the look that his friend often bores if he wanted to flirt with someone but… why does he sense that it was somehow different this time?
