Wu Chen had a sense of Déjà vu about all this.
He had gone through a similar situation before. Yi Fei slammed the door a few times to his face. At that time, he was frustrated and helpless because it was such a blow to his pride.
Wu Chen threw a sympathetic look at NaNa. He felt that NaNa must be sad because Jun Liu slammed the door right to her face.
But NaNa unexpectedly laughed; she laughed crazily. Wu Chen didn't know what happened to NaNa. NaNa must be very angry that her anger drove her crazy.
"You should look at your face when you jump. You jump so fast and so high. Your terrified face is so ugly I cannot stop laughing" NaNa was laughing so hard that she even squatted down because she couldn't stand straight.
YI Fei came out from hiding behind Wu Chen.
"I'm not. Why should I be afraid of Ah Jun?" Yi Fei tried to save her dignity.
The two little kids were having their childish argument about being afraid of Jun Liu and such. Wu Chen did nothing to stop them. He couldn't take a side without offending one of them, so he kept quiet until the door opened once again.
This time, Jun Liu had a white shirt on, and his face looked less grumpy than before, but he didn't invite the three people to come in. Instead, he stood at the door, blocking the entrance.
"What are you all doing here?"Jun Liu had a lot of things related to Wu Courtyard that he needed to deal with when he reached City L a few days ago. He managed to finish everything just this afternoon, and he wanted to take a nap.
Jun Liu planned to rest, and then he'll call NaNa to eat dinner with her. Ever since he returned to City L a few days ago, he had been so busy that he couldn't contact NaNa properly. He could only send a few messages to her, so he wanted to make it up to her with dinner.
But a specific individual was annoying and persistent in knocking his door; his rest time was disturbed. At first, Jun Liu wanted to ignore the knocking. He hoped that if he ignored it long enough, it would go away by itself. But the knocking didn't stop.
When he opened the door, he was greeted with a disturbing sight. He thought that three adults were trying to play "Trick or Treat" with him. Also, the party hat was embarrassing. Jun Liu didn't know why Wu Chen would put such a childish thing on his head.
"Can we come in?" NaNa asked politely. She was not afraid of Jun Liu with his cold attitude; she was used to it.
"No. Tell me first. What are you all doing here?" This time, Jun Liu opened wide his arms to block the entrance. He had the idea of what's going on with the three plus the party hat gave out the truth about the whole thing that they might do.
"Why?" Yi Fei asked Jun Liu why they couldn't enter.
Nobody answered Jun Liu's question, so he was suspicious. "Chen, what are you doing here?" Jun Liu decided to ask Wu Chen.
Wu Chen would answer the question if his eyes were not on Yi Fei who was now talking in a hushed manner with NaNa. Wu Chen thought about it, and he decided to back up his fiancée, so he ignored Jun Liu.
Since NaNa stood near the door, Jun Liu was able to hear what they talked about.
"NaNa, just enter this house. We are not vampires. We could enter the house without an invitation. Aren't you the girlfriend? Show me your girlfriend power" Yi Fei was asking NaNa to enter the house forcefully.
Upon hearing that Yi Fei was teaching a weird thing to his girlfriend, Jun Liu didn't know how to deal with that. He let down his hands, not blocking the door anymore.
NaNa walked forward, inching closer to Jun Liu. Jun Liu was taken aback and walked backward a step. Jun Liu was not used to public display of affection. So when NaNa approached him suddenly, he was shocked and retreated a step.
The three of them entered the house, and Yi Fei started counting. "One, two, three." Only Yi Fei and NaNa shouted 'surprise!'. Wu Chen refused to join in doing such an embarrassing thing. It was not his style.
Before Yi Fei could complain about him not joining them to shout for 'surprise,' Wu Chen returned to his house to bring the refreshments they made earlier. Yi Fei let him go because Wu Chen finally knows what support means.
NaNa handed over a party hat to Jun Liu, but Jun Liu refused to wear it. He said that wearing such a thing is a disgrace to his name. Thank God that Wu Chen was not around to hear him saying that, or else, Wu Chen will be distraught.
Yi Fei suggested that NaNa and Jun Liu should set the table since Jun Liu is the owner of the house. Jun Liu sees no problem with that, so he nodded. He pointed to the kitchen and NaNa went to the kitchen.
When Jun Liu wanted to walk away from Yi Fei, Yi Fei looked to her left, right and her behind for something. When everything is clear, Yi Fei took out a white thing from her pocket. Yi Fei shoved something to Jun Liu's palm – it was a piece of paper folded in two.
Yi Fei smiled smugly, raised her eyebrows a few times and gave Jun Liu a thumb up.
Jun Liu knew that Yi Fei was up to no good again. He read the note while walking towards the kitchen. After reading only for a few seconds, Jun Liu crumpled the note and threw it into the dustbin.
"What is that?" NaNa saw that Jun Liu was reading something and then he dramatically crumpled the paper and threw the note to the dustbin resentfully.
"Nothing. Just a trash" Jun Liu took out his plate and asked NaNa to set up the table.
The content of the note was a list of suggestions of what Jun Liu could do in the kitchen to improve his relationship with NaNa. At the end of the note, there was a picture or a meme of Yoda saying 'Good relationship with NaNa you must have.' There was also a postscript. It says 'p.s I know this is your first time having a girlfriend. I understand your feeling. May the force be with you, brother'.
So, what else could it be if it's not trash? Jun Liu felt that he was more than capable of dealing with his relationship even though this was the first time he was in a relationship. He observed many people in love, and he picked up a few tips here and there.
Jun Liu was busy feeling annoyed when NaNa spoke to him.
"Are you done dealing with the issues at work?"
Actually, Jun Liu felt that NaNa looked cute wearing the party hat. NaNa must be excited to wear the hat that it was crooked a little bit.
"Hmm. Already" Jun Liu went to fix the hat. "I'm sorry I couldn't contact you often. But I am done now; my working hours should be back to normal."
"It's okay. I'm used to it already" NaNa smiled at Jun Liu and continued setting the plate on the table since she knew that refreshments they are having, she organized the plate according to the number of snacks.
Jun Liu felt that there was a hidden sadness behind NaNa's words when she said that she's used to it. Like what?
Did she use to not contacting her former lover often? Or did she use to his former lover being too busy for her?
Jun Liu could not help but cursed NaNa's former fiancé in his heart.
"Thank you for allowing us to throw a party for you. I know you must be tired, but I want to see your face. I miss you so much; I couldn't wait to see you" NaNa resumed their conversation after she was done arranging the plate.
"I want to see you too. Thank you for coming to see me. Although I prefer it better if you come alone" Jun Liu approached NaNa and fiddled with the ring on her ring finger.
Both of them stared at each other, and they smiled in understanding.
