"Ahh! You are interested in man…." Feng Jianyu's visage brightened up. "Great!! Then I've no reason to not court you. It's decided then, I'm officially courting you from now on" He happily announced it.
Xiu Mei "….."
'What the hell? Who does he think he is? Did he hit his head somewhere? I'm sure that's the reason he said all that rubbish… Better I should confirm before calling Dr. Wang here.'
"Hey… You…. Come here! Let me check your head…." Holding his head between her palms she looked through it carefully for any bleeding or swelling. Feng Jianyu was enjoying the soft touch of her fingers running through the silky tresses of his hair. It felt so awesome when her slender fingers fluttered over his scalp.
"There is no visible injury… might be something internal!" She looked at Feng Jianyu in concern,
"Let's go… Before your situation worsens, let's go to the hospital to get your brain checked. I'll inform Dr. Wang Shi on the way." She got up to leave.
Feng Jianyu "….." 'Brain damaged? Does she think I said all that because of brain damage? No…..'
"Mei dear… My brain is perfectly fine. What all I said is my true heartfelt feelings for you" yanking Xiu Mei's hand he pulled her back to the couch to make her sit facing him.
Holding her hand he looked deeply into her eyes, "Here. I'll repeat my words! I… Feng Jianyu… is officially courting Xiu Mei from now on and I promise that she will be my one and only… forever and ever and ever" He said it with a charming smile.
Listening to him, Xiu Mei frowned hard. She narrowed her eyes sharply, "Yaaaa… and how should I respond? I Xiu Mei will be Feng Jianyu's forever and ever and ever…. Right?" Feng Jianyu sensed the sarcasm in her voice.
At that moment he so wished that this was her real reply. But the reality is always worse than the expectation.
Ignoring her sarcasm, he teased her, "Really? How romantic of you Mei… Let's tell Brother Wang Shi and Junjie about us!!" Xiu Mei was shocked at his shamelessness.
She pulled her hand back, "What rubbish are you spouting Feng Jianyu? I told you I'm not interested in any man! Don't you understand the meaning of my words?"
"Of course I understood! It's good you don't have interest in any man OTHER THAN ME"
Xiu Mei "….."
"Argh…. Don't exclude yourself from those men. I don't have an interest in you too" Angered by his stupid response, she fired back.
"Ok fine! You're not interested in me! I'll buy that. But tell me one good reason why you're not interested in me…" Feng Jianyu refused to let her escape his sharp gaze.
"Because…. Because…."
"Hmm, tell me"
Xiu Mei looked at Feng Jianyu as though he had taken leave of his senses. She wondered why all of a sudden this topic popped up. "Because I don't like you"
"Why you don't like me?"
"Because… Because…" she snapped at him, "Why should I tell you? I've full right to choose to whom I like and to whom I don't" Feng Jianyu doesn't know whether to laugh or cry at her line of argument.
"Tell me something, Mei. Just like you have the right to choose, isn't it only fair that I should have the same right too" he countered.
Xiu Mei glared at him, "But I refuse to give you the right to court me" Feng Jianyu felt quite sorry for her, "Mei dear, you can only control your feelings, and not mine. Keep on refusing me and I'll keep on pursuing you. Let's see who gives up first."
