Chapter 44 - A Party

Yao Yao had planned to invite a few other girls to the karaoke but she somehow ended up calling a big group of senior girls and boys who were known to be hooligans and problematic.But she was happy with the end result and told everyone that tonight's party was to be hosted by Shi Ai and she was inviting everyone on her behalf.. She actually wanted to use this opportunity to spoil Shi Ai's reputation.Many people were curious about Zhang Min's new sister so everyone used this opportunity to go to the party.

As the evening rolled around,Shi Ai could feel her stomach acting up.She did not understand why sh felt uncomfortable but she ignored it as she prepared to get ready for the party.She had a wardrobe full of dresses thanks to Auntie Zhang but she was not used to wearing them anymore so she chose a simple white buttoned shirt and a pair of jeans for the outing.She wanted to invite Brother Min along but he was out for a gaming tournament tonight and she was pretty sure that he would have not agreed to go out with her and infact thrown a huge tantrum and stopped her from going as well.But she still felt terrible over not inviting him so she texted Yao Yao for the venue and once she received a reply left the name of the place and the room number on a small note stuck to his computer so that he would see it immediately and would know where to come in case he decided to join them later.

As a concession to the happy atmosphere,she left her hair down and applied some tinted lip balm.Shi Ai was excited as it was not often she was able to go to a karaoke and ever since Auntie Wu's death,that occassion had never happened.

Outside Uncle Chu bid her a goodbye and Shi Ai left for the karaoke night with the driver.At the venue,she sent back the driver insisting thay she would take the taxi to return.Inside,Yao Yao was pacing in the lobby waiting for Shi Ai to arrive.She was early because she knew that Shi Ai would come early and she wanted to let Shi Ai know that if anyone asked then she had to say that the Karaoke was her idea.

Shi Ai entered the hotel and before the hostess could make way to her,she was accosted by Yao Yao who dragged her to the washroom immediately.Shi Ai once again shook her head at Yao Yao's antics but allowed herself to be dragged.

Inside the washroom,Yao yao Yao finally looked carefully at Shi Ai and forgetting her carefully practiced speech frowned,"What are you wearing?"

Shi Ai looked down at the simple clothing and shrugged a shoulder, explaining, "I just wanted to be comfortable.And now tell me why are you panicking?"

Yao Yao immediately stiffened and stared at Shi Ai, how do you know I am panicking?"Shi Ai gave a side way smile and said,"Yao Yao,why would you drag me to the washroom otherwise?"

Yao Yao nodded her head and said,"Look,my dad is angry at me because of my scores and has forbidden me from having any party.I told him it was just going to be the two of us so he allowed it.But I just wanted to invite a  few more people so I invited over Yi Miao and Clara over as well but they were blabbermouths and have now invited almost a dozen people.I couldn't say no once everyone had been invited and I told Yi Miao and Clara that you had organized the party.Look,I know you don't have much money so I will pay for everything but if someone asks,can you say you are the one hosting?"

Shi Ai was put out at the thought of karaoke with so many people but seeing the pleading face of her friend she relented and agreed.
