Wen Xinya closed her notebooks slowly before clearing up the mess on the table. She then stood up and stared at the roses on the vines outside the window while stretching her back.

“I’m finally done with the homework and tasks that Si Yiyan gave me.” Wen Xinya felt extremely relieved. Lately, Si Yiyan had been increasing the intensity of the tuition, so as to make her feel a sense of urgency.

The door was pushed open and she was greeted with the sight of Si Yiyan standing by the door, dressed in a silver, slim fit shirt. Its eye-catching color made him look classy and posh, accentuating his commanding aura and austerity. He matched it with a pair of grayish-silver trousers that exposed his long and toned legs.

Si Yiyan was never picky when it came to the colors of his clothes and he often dressed in gray, white, purple, green and black. He never failed to look classy, regardless of the color of his clothing. It was her first time seeing him dressed in silver.

Greatly surprised and fascinated, she could not take her eyes off him.

Si Yiyan walked towards her and chuckled. “Do you like it?”

Wen Xinya draped her arms around his neck and pulled his head down to plant a kiss on his cheek. She giggled and answered, “Yes! You look so handsome. No one in this world looks better than you.”

She was not exaggerating at all. Si Yiyan was indeed that dashing.

Si Yiyan kissed her lips gently and caressed her face. “I’m free today. Would you like to go out for a walk?”

Lately, she had been facing tremendous pressure because of her academics, and he wanted her to relax.

As happy as a lark, Wen Xinya grabbed onto Si Yiyan’s arm and exclaimed, “Of course! I’ve been staying in school or otherwise, the mansion. I’m almost going to rot.”

Besides... they would only go on dates in the club or at home because they had to keep their relationship a secret. They rarely went out for meals, movies, or shopping like normal couples did. She felt rather regretful and guilty towards Si Yiyan.

Si Yiyan kissed her cheek and exclaimed, “Hurry and go change. I’ll be waiting for you!”

Wen Xinya gave Si Yiyan a loud peck on his cheek and leaped towards the study.

Si Yiyan began to wonder if he should take more time out of his schedule to accompany her. Yeah! It was necessary to go out for meals, movies and shopping like normal couples.

Since she was afraid of being recognized by others, he decided to book the entire movie theater!

Si Yiyan felt like he had to take action as soon as possible.

Shortly after, Wen Xinya changed into a fresh set of clothes.

Si Yiyan scanned her from head to toe. She was dressed in a plain-looking cardigan and a pair of skinny jeans. She had a cap on her head and an exaggerated pair of purple shades.

“How do I look?” Wen Xinya asked, spinning herself in a circle. She scrutinized herself in the mirror and thought to herself that no one would recognize her if she were to dress plainly. After all, she was not a celebrity who appeared on television all the time.

“Yes! You’re very pretty. My girl looks beautiful all the time.” He rarely saw her in such a simple outfit and hence, he felt a sense of novelty, which made his eyes lit up.

Wen Xinya smiled and whipped out another pair of shades and a white cap. “Put it on and show me. Hurry.”

Si Yiyan bent forward and said, “Put it on for me.”

Wen Xinya pouted and chided. “All you do is order me around.”

However, Wen Xinya still complied nonetheless.

Wen Xinya scrutinized him carefully and said smugly, “Si Yiyan, you look really cool in shades. Indeed, handsome people look great in anything.”

Si Yiyan held her hand and asked, “What are we doing?”

Considering how plainly they were dressed, she was definitely planning to go to crowded places.

Wen Xinya answered self-righteously, “Go on a date, of course!”

Si Yiyan grinned widely and interlocked fingers with her. “Alright! Let’s go!”

Wen Xinya brought Si Yiyan to the East district where commoners made up most of the population. There were several shopping streets in that area, and it was the favorite spot of crowd-lovers and avid food patrons.

Wen Xinya was a glutton herself. It had been a long time since she ate the variety of street food available at the food stalls on the streets in the East district. She could finally have some with Si Yiyan.

It was evening time and the streets were already crowded. Wen Xinya pulled Si Yiyan along and weaved through the crowd while shopping.

It was the first time that Si Yiyan had ever been to such places. Staring at the food, clothing and trinket stalls, he realized that there were mostly couples and groups of friends on the streets. He could not help but feel amazed.

Wen Xinya held Si Yiyan’s hand and said, “Si Yiyan, the barbecued prawns from this stall are delicious. You must give them a try.”

Si Yiyan held her hand and gazed at her, thrilled to see how lively and happy she was.

“Boss, we’ll have two prawn skewers. One with spice, and one without spice.” Wen Xinya then pulled Si Yiyan onto a seat by the table near the stall.

She was not bothered by the grease and grime on the chair either.

Wen Xinya continued to rattle on and on about the food street and said, “There’s another stall here that sells delicious barbecued meat, and the fermented beancurd from another stall is my favorite...”

Si Yiyan listened to her attentively while observing her expression, which he had never seen before.

Soon, the barbecued prawn skewers were served to them. Wen Xinya paid up and handed the non-spicy one to Si Yiyan. “Give it a try.”

Due to his old ailment, Si Yiyan could not take spicy foods. She had been keeping that in mind and suddenly felt very touched at the thought of Si Yiyan giving in to her and accompanying her to eat spicy foods in the past.

Wen Xinya held his hand and continued shopping while snacking.

She caught sight of a pair of couple T-shirts on sale in a clothing store, on which there was a cartoon couple puckering up for a kiss and a pink heart-shaped bubble in between their lips.

Wen Xinya fancied it a lot and immediately pulled Si Yiyan into the store. “Boss, how much does this set of T-shirts cost?”

The owner of the store was a middle-aged woman. She stared at the two of them and could tell from the way that Si Yiyan was keeping his eyes fixed onto Wen Xinya, that they were a couple. “120 yuan. No bargaining,” she answered.

Wen Xinya immediately began to bargain. “Boss, that’s too expensive. I just saw another stall selling couple t-shirts for about at most 80 yuan. How about you sell them to us at 90 yuan?”
