Qiao Xi's ears turned blazing red as she looked down and whispered softly, "Mr. Huo..."
He was always cold and proud. How could he do such a thing in front of so many people?
"Suddenly felt like it," Huo Xingzhou pressed down an even hotter tide of emotion.

At his response, heat rose to Qiao Xi's head. Shy glimmers flickered in her eyes as she looked into his, with a torrent of words she didn't know how to express.
Xiang Huai paced over and said to Huo Xingzhou, "Let's talk."
Knowing when to bow out, Qiao Xi let go of Huo Xingzhou's hand and said, "Mr. Huo, I'm going to watch the fireworks over there."
She left with a spring in her step.
