Chapter 444: Friend or no-friends?
“WHAT....WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?? I NEVER DID ANYTHING LIKE THAT.” Yuhan was horrified at the dangerously straightforward words of Jia Fei.
How can she say something like that so easily and indifferently as if whatever happened had nothing to do with her?
” Oh really? Then...do I remember it incorrectly? But how can that be possible? I clearly remember that while kissing me you slided your cold hand under my shirt and was caressing over -”
“ALRIGHT. NOW STOP IT. Even if you remember everything, you don’t need to say these things out.” Yuhan’s face turned crimson at her extremely bold and detailed description.
” Oh! I don’t? I thought you needed some evidence if I remember last night’s events correctly or not.” Jia Fei teased him and took a sip of her iced americano while looking at him with a smirk.
Yuhan scoffed at her half-hearted words. He could see that she was teasing him.
What a bully!
.....
” So.... what are we going to do now?” He asked cautiously while looking up at her for a solution. They kissed and that kiss almost turned into something else.
If they don’t come up with any solution, it will be hard to see each other like they used to do in the past.
Because friends don’t make out with each other. They have already broken the first rule of friendship, which is to keep boundaries as just friends.
” What plan? We kissed and you touched my breasts. You even stole my first kiss. So you should take the responsibility.” Jia Fei said nonchalantly and turned her face away.
Although her voice was cold and indifferent as always, her cheeks were beetroot red in embarrassment.
Her heart was beating so hard as if she had run for half an hour on a treadmill without any break. She couldn’t even look into his eyes when she said that.
While she was feeling embarrassed, Yuhan’s eyes widened in shock as he wasn’t expecting her to say it out loud.
‘It was your first kiss as well?” He covered his mouth to control his giggles. It was her first kiss as well but she was pretending to look cool as if it was a normal thing for her.
“Laugh one more time and I will never see you again.” She shot him a glare.
Yuhan coughed to cover up his giggles and zip his mouth shut with his fingers,” No more laughing anymore.”
He cleared his throat and looked at her in puzzlement, ” What responsibility are you talking about? It was my first kiss as well. Moreover, it was you who kissed me first. How do you expect me to take the responsibility?”
He pursed his lips and after pondering for a moment, he blurted out,” Responsibility you say? Should we get married then?” He asked while looking into her eyes.
Jia Fei: “...”
She was speechless when he said those words so easily. She was not sure if he was being serious or was just joking with her.
He sure has the genes of her mother who always talks and thinks about getting married. How can he think of getting married as the solution?
They only kissed. It’s not like she is pregnant. Getting married is not the kind of solution she was expecting from him.
How can he suggest getting married so easily?
” Yeah. Yeah. Get married to you when we haven’t dated yet and know nothing about each other and get divorced after a few months. What a great idea indeed.” She remarked sarcastically.
Why can’t this guy simply take the hint? Does she have to spell it out for him?
She sighed exasperatedly and said, ” Fine. Since you do not know how to take responsibility for your actions, I will do so. It was me who initiated the kiss, so it’s my responsibility to settle these things as well.”
” We kissed and also.....you know did so...many things! Since it will be impossible to be friends like before, I think we should just date each other.” She said it while looking into his eyes but she kept pinching the back skin of her hand continuously in nervousness.
She wanted to keep a poker face until the end but she was getting breathless just at the thought of it. How crazy is she to suggest something like that?
” We’re both bachelors anyway. You’re dumped by Xu Nuan and I am also trying to move on from my crush on Lin hui.”
” To move on over someone, it’s better to date someone new but with my celebrity status, it’s not easy to find a decent man who will not create any more scandals for me.”
“Your condition is not so promising either. I doubt that you will find a girl with your low EQ and the history of having a long-term fiancee who was nothing but a troublemaker.” She bombed Yuhan with hard facts which caught him off guard.
He pursed his lips and sighed heavily. Yeah. He almost forgot that he was once engaged with Gu Xingren in the past.
Thanks to Jia Fei he was reminded of that time again. The time when he used to follow whatever his mother had arranged for him and simply followed her orders.
” Ah, But you have a mom who will arrange blind dates for you. However, I bet that the blind dates arranged by your Mom will never be able to become a cool girlfriend like me.”
“Moreover, she still believes that we’re in a relationship, that’s why she is working so hard to separate us. Tsk. How cute.” She chuckled when she imagined the enraged expressions of Yuhan’s mother.
Yuhan was also caught off guard when she chuckled out of nowhere. He stared at her in a daze and wondered, ‘Woah! She looks like a psycho!’
He rubbed his arms as he felt a surge of goosebumps through his body upon seeing her smirking like that.
” Anyway, So it won’t be hard to turn this lie into a truth.” Jia Fei stated the reasons why they should date each other rather than find new partners for themselves.
Yuhan stared at Jia Fei with his mouth parted in disbelief. She looked like a professional for a minute.
As if she was showing him a presentation and was pointing out the reason why he should work with their company.
” Woah! Have you ever tried working for the PR department in a company? I believe you will be perfect when dealing with noisy reporters. You can shut their mouths in an instant with your deeply explained presentation.” He said while clapping for her in awe.
” Would you like to work with my company? It’s bigger and way better than Xu Nuan’s newly established company.” He said to lure her to work with him.
” Hah! You seriously have no shame.” Jia Fei was speechless to see how shamelessly he was bringing this topic here.
” I don’t need to work in a PR Department to deal with the reporters. They’re scared of me anyway so no one will dare to ask unnecessary questions to me.” She scoffed and said proudly. .
Jia Fei has always been cold and savage with her replies when she used to give interviews and go for reality shows in the past.
However, after the press conference drama when she slapped Hao Mei across the face in front of a bunch of live cameras and reporters, many of them are still scared of her, worried that she might hit them as well.
It’s not like she likes to hit people, but it’s not too bad to have them scared of her. It’s also an advantage because she doesn’t need to worry about the reporters who swarm around her like honey bees.
” Forget about the reporters. You need to stop changing the topic. Don’t go in circles and tell me your answer. I have an important appointment in a while. So hurry up.” She urged him as she slammed the table in impatience.
Yuhan became serious upon hearing her words and took a deep breath before saying, ” Everything is great but.... don’t you think dating each other just because we’re single and trying to move on over our crushes is too much?”
” Shouldn’t we be in love before starting dating each other? I mean....not that I don’t like you. I like you too. I guess.” He said hesitantly.
He was not sure of his feelings. Jia Fei has been by his side as a friend only and he is comfortable with her the most.
However, he was not sure if that liking could be turned into love.
Jia Fei nodded seriously and pondered over his question. ” You’re right. I also like you over the other guys but I am not sure if it is friendly like or can be turned into something more than that.”
She was feeling strange after hearing her mother and Luo Dan’s words but she was not clear about her feelings either.
While thinking about it, she suddenly slammed on the table and looked at Yuhan with a glint in her eyes, ” I have an idea. This way we can not only confirm our feelings to each other but will not feel awkward around each other as well.”
Yuhan blinked his eyes as he was having a strange feeling about it. ‘ Erm....is it still late to run away from this?’ He wondered.
