Chapter 88 His proposal (1/2)

[Minutes before Ethan's phone call]

”Waaah! This is frustrating chu!! How could you trick me chu! Have you ever experience of packing up your things for a trip you have been long anticipating but in the end, you'd know you could not go chu? That's just ten percent of what I feel chu!” Churu protested in dissatisfaction from Lexi's stubbornness.

For a moment, Churu genuinely thought that Lexi would send her message but in the end, she was slapped with the 'in your dreams…' and all doubt her host had.

”Well, that's just five percent of what I felt when you didn't tell me about these important details!” Sassing in return, Lexi bantered with Churu's selfishness.

She already promised to this persistent little dumpling and swore that she'd make her evolve into a beautiful superstar. However, Lexi needed her to be more transparent and won't purposely leave important details behind.

Churu: ”chrrrru” [grrr]

For the record, this was probably the first argument between these odd pair of sisters. Like the little dumpling, Lexi was also grinding her teeth as she glared daggers at Churu in return.

Just then, both of them mildly flinched when Lexi's phone rang. Diverting their gaze on her phone, Churu's displeased front immediately lightened as if her knight and shining armor came to her rescue.

On the other hand, Lexi's brows creased by his sudden phone call. Gravitating whether she would answer the call or not, Lexi peered at the screen until it ended.

”What?! Why didn't you answer chu?! The one who's sabotaging your plans is you, yourself, che!” As expected, Churu complained in annoyance by Lexi's antiques. Afterall, it was the perfect timing for her to ask him the question she should ask earlier, yet, Lexi was playing hard to get again! Hence, how could the little dumpling keep her head cool?

”Gosh! You are annoying you know that? Have you also experience receiving a call out of nowhere? Right, it makes me think of all bad deeds I've done in my life, that's why!” Venting her frustration to the mighty and unbending little bun who was as fierce as her, Lexi realized that her sassiness couldn't be par with Churu.

Again, Lexi's phone rang which sharpened Churu's burning eyes as she glanced at the screen to Lexi. She commanded like a general of a large army,

”Answer that or I, the most beautiful, perfect, and wonderful creation of the Lord would quit this stressing job!”

”Do you have to say all that? Gosh! I can't believe I'm conceding defeat to this shorty.” Rolling her eyes in exasperation, Lexi clicked her tongue before she cleared her throat and picked up the call.

”Yes?”

Ethan: ”hmm? Frustrated?

Arching her brows, Lexi was quite surprised that Ethan quickly sensed her exasperation -- mainly because of her little argument with Churu. Therefore, she heedlessly inquired how he knew.

As usual, Ethan's response was something that she'd expected to hear; flaunting his so called 'radar'.

Ethan: ”So, what frustrates this strong independent woman?”
