After leaving the club, Xu Nuan went to the convenience store across the street and bought a pack of sanitary napkins for herself, and changed at the washroom in the store. Since the shopkeeper was an old lady, she was quite understanding.
When she came out of the shop while holding the black polythene, Han Zihao was sitting inside the car. She smiled at him and sat at the passenger seat.
He glanced at her and cleared his throat before saying, " You….do you need anything else?"
She chuckled hearing his words. Why is he awkwardly cute?
" No. thank you. We are good to go now," she said.
He nodded and drove off.
While he was driving, he opened the front compartment and took the heating pad from it, " here. Use it." he shoved it in her hands.
She stared at him when she heard him say," I bought it earlier when you went to the washroom. I thought it might help."
She looked at the heating pad in her hands as a smile crept on her lips. This man...sigh.
' How can he be so thoughtful?'
-
Upon reaching their units, he started punching his password when he heard her say from behind, " Mr. Han?"
" Hmm." he hummed in response.
" Why did you come to the club tonight?" she asked while looking at his back, with her hands folded in front of her chest.
He froze. Her question woke him up as he didn't think earlier why he went over to meet her? He was trying to convince himself that he went there just to have a drink but he doesn't like to go to such places for a drink. Is it because of the photo that Han Liang sent him earlier? Why?
"I...I was there because...because Han Liang called me out for a drink and…Umm." he tried to make an excuse but she held onto his arm and jerked him to turn around.
Before he could react, she placed her heavenly delicate lips over his. His eyes widened in shock when she kissed him suddenly.
His body froze as he could feel an electric reaction in his body. He felt the hair on his body rising when her hand caressed his arm before parting away from the kiss.
"-_-"
A grunt left from his throat when she broke the kiss before it could start.
" This was your reward Mr. Han for passing the first test. If you haven't come today, then I would have to think about chasing after you. You will get the rest when we will officially become a couple." she laughed and waved at him before punching the password and entering her house at the fastest speed.
"-_-"
He stood there and stared at her closed door in a daze. What just happened? Was she playing with him? It wasn't even a kiss, it was just a peck. A peck?
Suddenly he felt a little upset that it ended too soon.
However, he touched his lips unconsciously as her sweetness was still lingering in his mind. Her soft lips...he couldn't help but think how can someone's lips be so smooth and sweet.
" I should have stopped her from breaking it so soon," he muttered in a low voice. However, his eyes widened at his perverted thought.
" Ah, what am I thinking? Han Zihao, stay away from this girl. She is not a good influence on you." he shook his head and entered inside the house.
-
Just like him, Xu Nuan was in shock as well. She stood against her closed door and heard him punching his password and closing the door. She breathed out heavily realizing that he is not in the corridor anymore.
She placed her hand on her chest and panted, " Oh My, Jiang Yue. You're such a pervert. How can you kiss him out of sudden? Wait...he won't sue me for sexual harassment, will he?" she suddenly started to feel guilty for kissing him out of nowhere.
She doesn't know why she kissed him out of nowhere, but she just couldn't stop herself, and without her realizing, her hands turned him away and her lips moved forward. It's like...her body was not following her mind's order.
However, the more she thought about that fleeting kiss, the more her cheeks turned red. She placed her hands over her face to cool them down. " Well, even though it was short but...it was a nice kiss though. Was it mint or….Woah, Jiang Yue, you need to calm down." she widened her eyes when she realized what she was doing. She was analyzing how he smelt when she kissed him. That's kinda perverted.
She shook her head and said, " I need to stop it. He is the lucky one to get a kiss from me. Mr. Han, I hope you won't be able to sleep well after this." she giggled and went to her bedroom.
-
The next day.
Han Zihao sighed as he munched on his half-burnt toast. He couldn't sleep properly last night after what she did in the corridor. Whenever he closed his eyes, her long eyelashes and those sweet lips invaded his sleep.
When he woke up in the morning, he found that she already left. Seems like she went to train the girls again.
' Shouldn't she take a rest on a day like this?' he thought. He doesn't know much about women's stuff but he knows that these days are quite painful and they are supposed to rest on such days.
" She should at least avoid going for workout training today."
-
After the workout session, Xu Nuan accompanied the girls to the company for their dance practice. Upon reaching the company, she sent the girls to the terrace to practice basic moves since the practice room was occupied by Wang Meili's girls.
They are now used to this unfair treatment. She knew from the start that things are going to be this way, so she can't blame them. However, she's gonna show them how wrong they were at the start.
She went to meet Du An who is the vocal coach in the company. Unlike Wang Meili, he is friendly and supportive. Even though she is working against Wang Meili and the CEO, other employees are very supportive of her decision. They also know the four girls' talent and felt that it would have been a waste to let them go like this.
She needed to start preparing for girls' comeback music. For that, she needs to meet a music producer.
" Ah, I am sorry for not helping you to train the girls. I am the vocal coach but I can't even train them. I feel so guilty about it.." he said while looking down at his coffee mug.
" It's okay. I know you can't do anything because of Meili. If she hasn't told you guys to not help me and focus on the new group only, then you would have trained the girls very well." she soothed him.
"Well, I am not here to complain about this. I need your help with something. Can you give me the contact number of the music producer's number? I need to talk to him about their debut track. The time is very close and we need to start making the music so that girls can learn the choreography and practice in the meanwhile." she asked while sipping on the tea he offered.
" Err...Xu Nuan I do have the number of our music producer, but I don't think it's gonna be any help."
" What? What do you mean?" she asked in confusion.
" Well, Wang Meili has stopped everyone from the company to help you with this matter. Since ' Pretty girls' are gonna debut together with your group, she is taking both groups as competitors. And if the music producer helped you, then you might try to copy their concept so.." he said hesitantly.
"Wait, what? Copy their concept? Does that make any sense? Even though they are debuting at the same time, they are from the same company for god's sake. I was patient when she asked you guys to not help me in any way. But now the music producer as well? Then what's the use of letting them debut under the same label when they need to work with a music producer from outside?" She burst out hearing that they can't even use the music producer now.
" And what? Pretty girls? She kept their name as pretty girls? Hah! Well, this name does suit the concept she has imagined for them. She is only trying to make them appear as pretty girls and is not focusing on their performance and music." she scoffed.
Du An nodded as he can't deny her claims. Wang Meili wants the girls to appear as beautiful pretty girls that could make anyone admire their beauty. Rather than practicing on their vocals, the girls' focus is on their diets and workouts. Because of that, they are lethargic and exhausted all the time which makes it hard for them to make them work.
"I am sorry. Seems like you need to find a music producer from outside. I think it's impossible to expect any help from here." Du An said while looking at her carefully.
Xu Nuan didn't say anything and left his office.
-
Xu Nuan went upstairs and looked at the girls who were training hard even in the hot weather at the terrace. They are working hard to make their dreams come true and here people are trying their best to pull them down.
She scoffed and murmured, " Wang Meili, thanks for waking up the Jiang Yue who was resting all along. Because of your provocation, I am gonna show you how I am gonna make them stars. You just wait and watch. I am gonna make you regret your actions very soon."
" Go and create problems for me as much as you can. It will make me even more determined to win this way," she commented and went downstairs.
"Let's get to work Jiang Yue."
