Chapter 16 - Sugar Bliss was short lived

The last class for the day ended, all students started packing up to get ready to go back home or to attend their appointments or study at the library to review what they have learned.

Yu Xin packed her bag and remained seated while waiting for her brothers.

The cushion boosted her up, but it also meant that she is far from the ground. Her brothers had to go to the student council, so she is left alone with Wang Zi Hao who is still napping through the class. She took out her iPad to look up current local affairs happening, as she scrolls through the news website, she saw the news on Han Cheng Li becoming DTA's president. "Han Cheng Li!" shouted Yu Xin.

Realizing that she said it out loud, she checks whether Wang Zi Hao woke up. Wang Zi Hao got up and turned to Yu Xin and asked "What about Han Cheng Li? Do you know him?". Yu Xin's eyes opened wide and then said "Uhh… isn't he the one helping some company to survive? Well, people thought that the vice president of the company will ascend to being the company president instead…" dragging the last word. Looking at Wang Zi Hao, who was staring at her trying to figure something out.

"School ended! Aren't you going home now?" asked Yu Xin trying to change the topic while keeping her device back into her backpack. After a while, there was no response from Wang Zi Hao, Yu Xin turned her head toward Wang Zi Hao who is still staring at her. 'The stare. I can smell something is burning' thought Yu Xin.

"Zi Hao, help me off the chair. I want to go somewhere."

Zi Hao then stands up and helps Yu Xin off the chair. As Yu Xin's feet touches the ground, she said "Thank you! And see you tomorrow," and left the classroom. As she walks down to the first floor, there were people following her. Yu Xin went to the café and ordered a warm cup of milk tea and a signature dessert to pair. The staff at the café helped her to her seat and serve her as she was still small.

The café is self-service. The students following her also came in and seated far away from her, Wang Zi Hao also entered the café and sat opposite Yu Xin. "Why are you here?" asked Yu Xin while waiting for her food to arrive. But what she got back was silence. A staff member came over with a cup of unsweetened milk tea and 3 different signature cakes and cookies. "I only ordered milk tea and 1 cake?" said Yu Xin.

The staff then replied that the rest is on the house. Yu Xin thanked the staff and proceeds to add sugar cubes to her drink. One cube, two cubes, three cubes, four cu… her hand was held by Wang Zi Hao who then said "Too much sugar is bad" and then moved her fourth sugar cube away from her drink.

"??? Is this a lot of sugar?" said Yu Xin.

Wang Zi Hao then picked out the second and third sugar cube that hasn't dissolved yet and stirred her drink. Speechless at what Wang Zi Hao did to her drink, she then said "What are you doing?! How is 1 sugar cube enough? At least 5 should be added!" and proceeds to grab the sugar cube container which was then taken away from her reach.

"ZI HAO!" shouted Yu Xin. A few students started moving slightly closer to Yu Xin.

"You will have tooth decay if you keep eating sugar," said Wang Zi Hao who then placed a less sweet cake in front of her. 'Nobody did this to me! Why you little. ARGHHH!' such thoughts were kept in Yu Xin's mind. Upset at her current state, a small piece of cake entered her mouth.

Though it was not sweet, it was still tasty. Like a flower blooming in her mouth. After savoring the cake, she had another bite. Before she knew Wang Zi Hao was feeding her. After she was done, her happiness was brimming, and taking a sip of milk tea. Wang Zi Hao then minded his own things as he drinks a glass of plain water she didn't touch.

She took out her device and started working on the things she needed due to the sudden change of president. Yu Xin then paused at the plan she was formulating, 'Do they still need my help?'.
