After he went to his room....just as he about to enter his bed...another knock came from the door.....He thought 'what is it now?'
He opened the door of his bedroom and saw his sister Ai hua "what is it that you have to come here at this hour?" Ai chang asked.
Ai hua pouted hearing her brother "can't i come to see you whenever i want..."
"of course you can.....now tell me why are you here?"Ai chang asked patiently.
"i want to ask you something" Ai hua said while lowering her head little bit.
"yes?"
"Is brother chen coming to the party?" Ai hua asked still lowering her head.
"yea ...of course he is coming as he is my best buddy....but why are you asking this?"
"just like that"
"just like that ? at this hour? why do i feel you are hiding something from me...are you hiding something from me?" Ai chang asked while looking at her suspiciously.
"no brother....how can i hide something from you..." Ai hua said while lowering her gaze somewhere else but not daring look at his eyes.
"then say it while looking at my eyes"
"brother ....i am sleepy now ...lets talk tomorrow ...bye" Ai hua said...making a excuse to escape from his questions....After saying bye she went to her room quickly without looking back.
After entering her bedroom ....she leaned against the door and sighed of relief...she mumbled to herself " goosh...it was close...if brother knew i have crush on brother chen what will he think ". She knew her brother would support her if she liked brother chen....but if the relationship doesn't work out if they got together in the future....it may ruin her brother's relationship with brother chen ...thats why she didn't want her brother know she have crush on brother chen and she is not sure if its just an attraction or she loved him.
on the other hand, Ai chang felt his sister was hiding something but didn't think of it much because in the end she will ended up telling him sooner or later....so he went to bed to sleep... he started dreaming of past again.
---flashback---
After the day Bai lu tried to save him....she left a deep impression on him.....After that day they became good friends or kind of best friends.....they use to study together....sometimes nini use to join them..over the time Nini also became a good friend of his....she also started to understand his and Bai lu's character....they use to be trio group.
most of the time the 2 girls would gossip and he would just listen to them or just sit silently besides them.
Bai lu opened up to him slowly as two of them started to get close and he also opened up to her as the time went.
After one year of knowing each other....around the end of final semester.....three of them were sitting in the canteen having their lunch...
nini asked them "guys...i heard some rumors ....do you want to know?"
"no" both Bai lu and Ai chang said together while focusing on their food.
"both you are not interesting....anyways i will tell you guys even if you want to know or don't want to know"
"then why did you ask?" Bai lu asked while looking at nini
"yah" Ai chang also agreed.
"you guys are so ungrateful...can you guys just listen to me now?" nini said while looking unhappy.
"just say it....otherwise you won't let us have our food peacefully" AI chang said while shrugging his shoulder.
"its good that you know that.....so the rumor is there is going to be a competition of play....and i want to participate in it " nini said excietedly.
"participate then....whats the problem?" Bai lu asked as she was confused why nini was announcing about the competition to them because nini knows both of them are not interested in all these other than study related competition.
"there is problem actually....so i need a favor to ask from you guys" nini said timidly because she knew they will not agree to her easily.
"what favor?" Ai chang asked looking confused because there is nothing they could do to help her in the competition.
"first you guys promise me ...you will help me then i will tell you"
"first tell us what help you need from us" Bai lu said ....and Ai chang also looked at nini intently.
"first promise me then..."
"then i don't want to help you if you don't tell us first" Ai chang declared
"me too" Bai lu also agreed to him.
"you guys are heartless....don't you trust your dare friend?" nini said while trying to look pitiful towards them.
"no" both of them said with straight face then focused on their food.
"both of you stop eating ...and help this pitiful friend of yours.....please please...i promise i will listen to you guys for one week if you help me with this.."
"no" Ai chang rejected.
"just do this favor....please...lulu" nini tried to look pitiful to Bai lu.
Bai lu sighed at her and finally agreed " ok i promise i will help if i can....now stop pretending pitiful"
"you are the BEST lulu!!....you sure are my goddess" nini exclaimed in happiness..."now you also agree look lulu also agreed to help" nini said to Ai chang.
"just help her this time" Bai lu also requested to Ai chang.
At first Ai chang looked at Bai lu then nini "ok i will help...promise...but remember your promise too"
"you just listen to lu....grampish human " nini mumbled to herself.
"did you say something nini?" Bai lu asked as she was sitting near her.
"its nothing" nini answered while giving a stiff smile as she got caught.
"now tell us ...how can we help you?" Ai chang asked.
