As usual, Feng Xi was brought along again, and she and Bai Sheng were introduced to each other, however, to both grannies' surprise, Bai Sheng seems to be very interested in Feng Xi with the look on his face.
"So... Xixi, I and Chu Qiao here one to have a word, how about you guys go and spend some time together?" Old Grandma Feng said.
"Sure Grandmother." Feng Xi said with a small smile, walking away, and soon, Bai Sheng caught up with her.
"Where are we going now? Miss Xi." He asked.
"You can go wherever you want." Came Feng Xi's reply as she look around to look for Feng Susu.
She finds herself walking to the server and picking up a glass of red wine, then she pulled out one of the chairs and sat.
Standing behind her and witnessing such a picturesque view of Feng Xi in red, with long black curly hair laying on her back, and a glass of red wine in her fair hand, also, there is a red wristband on her wrist, something that seems out of place with the jewelry she wore but still didn't dirty appearance. Bai Sheng felt his heartbeat increase at this scene.
He sat beside her and stared unblinkingly at her side view, well, every angle seems to be her best angle.
"So... shall we have a talk?" He broke the silence.
"Whatever." Feng Xi nonchalantly reply, her hand swaying the glass as she texted Feng Susu on her phone with the other hand.
"Why do you ask me to add Miss Susu?"
The girl turns to him, her deep black eyes staring straight into his brown ones.
"You said to ask you whatever I want." She averted her gaze.
Bai Sheng sighs softly and then, he picked up a glass of wine too and sipped on it before placing it down.
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
Feng Xi froze for a split second, which Bai Sheng noticed but referred to it as a shock.
Feng Xi smiled, ready to say 'yes' when Bai Sheng shook his head.
"Don't lie."
Feng Xi smirked, determined to lie.
"Please." He added. His voice was low and filled with pleas, causing Feng Xi to subconsciously changed her reply.
"No,"
The moment she said that she wished she could just take the words back, why the hell did she have to always fall for this guy again and again for goodness sake? Not wanting to give him false hope, she quickly added.
"But I have someone I like."
'So it is true.' thought Bai Sheng with a bitter feeling spreading across his chest.
If he didn't let out his feelings, he was sure that sooner or later, he would die because of the prickling feeling that always attack his heart.
He didn't show any emotion on his face except for the smile held, which was only meant for her.
"That means I still have a chance." He said, to which Feng Xi glanced at him in utter surprise.
Then what he said hit her, causing her to shake her head.
"I don't understand what you mean."
"You don't understand? Fine, I will tell you."
Then Bai Sheng gazes at her deeply.
"From the moment you enter the room that morning five years ago, I found myself remembering every single thing about you, from the way you talk to the way you walk."
'...Remembering every single thing about me? Such a big talk from someone that forgets my entire existence.'
