510 My Woman (2/2)
And that was enough to make Han Bohai float on cloud nine. Getting back in that familiar car of hers, his eyes wandered around curiously just like last time.
”Where did you come from? And what's up with that uniform?”
Ying was finding the silence between them so comfortable that it stifled her. Because that comfort was quite scary to her. That's why she chose to question him.
”Didn't I send you that sunrise photo? It was taken on Linlan beach.”
”Oh... Then why are you back?”
”Because my shoot here is not done yet.” She nodded. ”As for the uniform, I got this from the pilot. His physique matched mine and I needed someone to cover for me. Otherwise, that crowd of fans was gonna crush me.”
”You asked a pilot to take his clothes off for you?”
Han Bohai frowned slightly. ”Why does it sound so weird when you say it like that?” Shaking his head, he went on, ”By the way, did you miss me?”
”Get lost!” was Ying's reply.
He smiled again, ”Aiyo! I missed you too!”
Ying gaped at him in disbelief and shook his head while tapping her fingers on the steering wheel. She really needed to keep her distance from him to keep her sanity. Annoying! Annoying pest! She really needed to kick him out of her life. But no! She even invited him inside her car!
How outrageous!
”What were you doing at the airport though?” he questioned looking at the way her expressions were changing every second.
Recalling Xiu, Ying's face turned sad. He was startled to see her like this as if she was heartbroken. And this expression shook his heart violently.
”I was seeing someone off and I already miss her,[1]” Ying's voice was enough to show how unwilling she had been to part with Xiu.
Han Bohai's eyes darkened, ”And who is this special person whom you miss already?”
”My sister,” Ying didn't even hesitate to call Xiu as her sister. Clearly, as Xiu had said that Ying was allowed to adopt her as a sister, Ying truly did. Who knew she'd turn out to be an overprotective sister at that.
Han Bohai's smile came back as he learned that it was her sister she was talking about and not some guy as he had assumed. ”Oh, you have a sister. What's her name?”
”Bai Xiu,” answered Ying and Han Bohai's face stiffened a little. It took a moment for Ying to notice his silence. ”What's wrong?”
He shook his head as he smiled, ”I think I already like your sister.”
[1] In Mandarin, there is no specific gender distinction when you say 'him/his' or 'her'. So, Han Bohai's mood changed because he thought, she was saying, 'I already miss him.'
