Chapter 138：It's Really Hard To Be My Grilfriend

"So.. the Queen agrees to produce my second album. The marketing and promotion will be our responsibility, but they are willing to produce three MVs," Takeshi tells Xiao Ping in chat. It is a week after he met Mr. Waseda. He just being informed by Hiroshi the news himself. "That's great !! Congratulation, Love!" Xiao Ping replies in joy.

"Hmm.. His daughter is a big fan of me. Her name is Aiko," Takeshi utters in shilly-shally. "Is she pretty ?" Xiao Ping asks. "Hmm.. kinda," Takeshi answers hesitantly. "Do you like her ?" Xiao Ping asks again. "No!" Takeshi answers. "So.. you hate her ?" Xiao Ping asks again, definitely teasing him. Takeshi sighs.

"You.. it's not like that. I don't know her much. She was like dumbstruck when we met. Well, most my friends are. I remember someone even fainted once," Takeshi answers, teases her back. Xiao Ping blushes in shame. "I was exhausted !" she denies before chuckles. "And then .. ?" she asks Takeshi to continue. "What I meant is.. I don't like her as interested or crush on her what so ever. And she didn't make any bad impression so far, so I have no reason to hate her. I am surprised that Waseda-san wants her to be the model. I mean.. she doesn't look like a model.. so, firstly, what is his purpose ? second, will she able to perform well ?" Takeshi explains, "But it will be very impolite if I utter this to him, won't it ?"

"It is. Beside, you can not underestimate people. Who knows, maybe she has talent as model and her father knew it," Xiao Ping says. "Or maybe, you can make an offer that instead of directly chose her as model, you need to at least make an audition first ?" Xiao Ping gives a suggestion. "You're right. I'm going to suggest that to Waseda-san," Takeshi agrees.

"If.. she's going to be my model, are you fine with it ?" Takeshi asks. "Should I not be ?" Xiao Ping asks back. Takeshi can't respond with anything. He is a bit disappointed that Xiao Ping seems to not slightly jealous. "You will need a woman model for your MV, isn't it right ?" Xiao Ping asks him again. "I guess so," Takeshi answers. Most of his songs are about love. So it only come to nature to have a woman model on the video. "So, whether it's her or not, what's the different ? Is there anything that makes me have to be more jealous to her than to other model ?" Xiao Ping asks again. Takeshi smiles to read her question. She is jealous, apparently, he thinks. "No, there is none," he answers.

"Love, I realize I date a no common man. You are a superstar. I can be crazy if have to keep being jealous every time a girl hints on you. The only thing that keep my sanity is my trust on you. So I try not to give a care when women are chasing you or try to seduce you, as long as you don't respond to them," Xiao Ping's explanation just makes Takeshi even more adores her. "I am really in love with you, Babe. It is really hard to be my girlfriend, isn't it ?" Takeshi types with a lot of feeling going through. "It is. But it is worth every love I can have from you," Xiao Ping replies. "Please let me know if anything's bothering you, okay ? I don't want you to bare too much burden," Takeshi asks her. "Okay," Xiao Ping only replies short. She feels warm all over her body as she imagines being embraced by Takeshi's love.

"Bye, Xiao Ping," Han Han says goodbye to Xiao Ping while walking in front of her and carrying his backpack. "You're leaving already ?" Xiao Ping asks. It's only 5 PM. "Yeah, I have things to do," Han Han says, "Why ? Do you need me to do anything for you ?" Xiao Ping shakes her head but still put her eyes closely to Han Han.

"Is it something to do with that girl ?" Xiao Ping asks instead. "Which girl ?" Han Han asks back. "One you brought here last week," Xiao Ping answers. "Aah.. yes. I have to help her settling her self in," Han Han responds. Xiao Ping clicks her tongue in disappointment. "I thought you said you won't give up on A Lin," she says, letting out her disappointment. "I don't," Han Han confirms, "Why .. ? Oh, Nooo.. she's not.." Han Han quickly understands Xiao Ping's sight. "The girl, Yu Mei, is my cousin, the daughter of my mother's sister," Han Han's explanation brings Xiao Ping' eyes to widen. She closes her open mouth with her hand. "Gosh.. Han Han.. you really need to clear this up to A Lin," she says in shock. Han Han scratches his head. "Why do I need to ? She doesn't care anyway," he says sadly. "She does care. Believe me, she does," Xiao Ping urges. "She really misunderstands this time. You need to explain to her as soon as possible, before it is too late," Xiao Ping advices him again.
