Chapter 127 No bathump bathump (1/2)

As Lexi entered the elevator lift from the parking space, she let out a faint chuckle before a subtle smile formed on the side of her lips.

”He's too extra… really,” She mumbled as she slightly shook her head being reminded about Ethan's priceless smile when he uttered his 'I love you'. It was as if he was the happiest person even though Lexi didn't respond.

”Do you hear your heart make that bathump bathump sound~? Eh, eh, eeeh~?” Churu's voice gradually rose with excitement as she flew closer and closer to Lexi. Her bum swung left and right while her two little fists were held closely on her chest. Her eyes sparkled and her cheeks flushed in anticipation making her look extra adorable.

”No bathump bathump, alright? Just… I don't know, feel a little weird about this whole setup.” Lexi blew the few strands of hair dangling in front of her as she leaned her back on the lift's wall.

Churu pouted upon hearing her response. She stared at Lexi's apathetic front for quite some time as if contemplating something. After a while, Churu's lips parted into an 'O' shape and the bottom of her tiny fist knocked on her opened palm indicating she finally cracked the meaning behind Lexi's words.

”Ooh! it's the inexperienced dilemma~!”

”You're fast.” Lexi sarcastically commended as she glanced at the flying white bun. She added with a sigh, ”I've been engaged with that man since forever so this… with Ethan, I don't know what to feel -- actually, I don't want to think about it for now because I don't even know what to do with my life.”

With that said piece, the elevator lift came to a full halt and produced the sound that indicated that Lexi arrived on her room floor. While the door was opening, Lexi muttered, ”Whatever. That's not important at the moment.”

Lexi then exited the elevator and headed to her room to rest. Behind her, Churu followed as she lamented Lexi's last sentence with a voice filled with dismay. ”Not important, not important, pwe! But that's what important to me~”

However, no matter how the adorable dumpling whined, Lexi ignored her yammering and pretended she didn't hear the flying Churu that wasn't even trying to conceal her motives.

Meanwhile…

Lyrick Jiang kept on glancing on the rear mirror to confirm that he was not seeing things. Currently, his master was smiling from ear to ear. What more? He was blushing! How could Lyrick Jiang who had seen every side of his boss's personality not be confounded after seeing this new one?

Since Lyrick Jiang arrived in the town when Ethan dropped Lexi to the hotel, he missed the recent happenings about his boss. He was only called when Ethan Lu needed a person to drive him back to the city.

”Aiii~ I said it, hihi~” Ethan Lu muffledly giggled being reminded that he just confessed to Lexi and received her golden response. Moreover, holding her hand and being able to express even half of his feelings was enough to make him want to roll on the ground because of extreme excitement and happiness.
