Chapter 17.3 (2/2)

“Go home.” He He looked at Cen s.h.i.+ laughing and honestly admitted: “I am not feeling well today. Even if I am well, I am not comfortable in having dinner with you.”

“I understand.” Cen s.h.i.+ did not asked her where she live but directly drove down the road towards the right direction.

As they were entering the district where He He stay, Cen s.h.i.+ suddenly said: “He He, if you still mind the past and refused to forgive me…..”

He He interrupted him: “There is no such thing.”

Cen s.h.i.+ ignored her interruption and continue: “Then you suppose we can be just friends that have just met. I promise I will not pester you. So you don’t try to avoid me.”

He He said: “Okay. It’s a deal.” She opened the car door and get off after saying that. Walking a few steps forward when s.h.i.+ called her: “He He”. She turned to see that Cen s.h.i.+ had got down from the car, leaning against the door with her cell phone in his hand. She forgot about her cell phone.

Xiao He He took a few step forward and retrieve her phone from him. She turned to leave but not without reminding him: “Yes Mr Cen, since we have just met, it is fine if you just call me ‘Ms Xiao’.”

Xiao He He throw her bag on the group after she step into her home and sat on the couch for a while. She wanted to check if Cen Yi has left through the window but stopped her urged by sitting herself down on the sofa.

It is normal if he is gone. Even if he is still there, it is only for show only. Although she is not his opponent, but she is very well verse with his temperament and know him very well.

In fact, he understands her well. So he did not explain in those days. He understand that he cannot rush for her to know his intention. And secondly, he know that even if he wants to explain, she would not be bother to listen. So he is better off to save his energy.

And then He He suddenly realized, after the ‘accidental meeting’ with Cen s.h.i.+, she did not buy her dinner. So she only could prepare dinner herself or call for a take out.

Now, she is not hungry. Feeling a little restless, she decided to continue to work on the drawings that she had pending.

Her drawing book has a number of pages where she had already finished outlining the map with people and scenery. Every time when she is upset, she would take it out and starts to modify the line. This is not technically useful and is time consuming but it helps her to calm down. She had long ago discover this method.

He He is thinking while drawing.

She felt that she was harsh to Cen s.h.i.+ earlier. Really rude of her but this is also forced after her world with Cen s.h.i.+.

In reality, Cen s.h.i.+ did not really hurt her. He tricked her, although at that time she is really very sad but comparing with what she seen and heard later, it can be considered as really nothing but just a little plot similar to the cla.s.sic TV series. Then he deceive her again. That in fact she knew that it is not entirely his fault. After all, Cen s.h.i.+ is in a very different league from Zheng Xie. Totally not an opponent at all. Later, Cen s.h.i.+ wrote to He He many letters. Sent many messages. Although from many point of view, it is completely sincere, but she refused to give him a chance to show it.

It is her own heart knot but she is repenting the anger to Cen s.h.i.+.

He He in her one mind managed to finish a map of Chinese mythology ladies. She usually leave the eyes to draw last as it gives her a sense of accomplishment. But this is also often how it would destroy one’s work. After a closer look at the eyes, she inadvertently draw Aunty Qian appearance on the woman’s face. Then she remembered her own mother, so decided to draw a picture in accordance to her mother’s features. But she could not remember any of her mother’s face features. Then she look through the photo alb.u.ms.

While going through the photo alb.u.m, she remembered that she did not had her dinner yet. She was feeling a little hungry so decided to go and order some takeout. She searched several drawers but could not find any restaurant number to call. This is because she had always taken these things for granted.

He He turn in vain, could not find the number even after calling 114. At last she remembered that she can go opposite to Zheng Xie’s place to look for it. He has a book on a number of commonly used phone, she had patiently copy those number for him one by one. His things are always tidy, so she knew where to find it.

Before He He is able to take action as planned, Zheng Xie called her. Really coincidence.

Zheng Xie say that he is having dinner with Yang Wei Qi in the area about ten meters in a BBQ shop, asking her to join them for dinner.
