(ch.96)

Chin went to eat dinner, she saw that Bojing was still there, she asked "What is Bojing still doing here," as she took a seat.

Lai gently kicked her and glared at her, she hissed from the pain, he said "You should be thanking him for saving you instead of complaining."

"Ok ok, you didn't need to kick me," she complained, she looked at Bojing and said "Thank you for saving me today," with no sincerity. Lai said "Chin!" She resaid "Thank you, Bojing, for saving me today," with a fake sincere tone.

Bojing said "Ok, no need to force yourself to say it again, I know you don't mean it," in a calm tone.

Xaing said "Ok, enough talking, we should eat before the food gets cold," they started to eat. After they ate, Bojing said that he should be going back to his house, Lai asked "Are you sure you don't want to stay the night, it's already late," in a curious tone. Bojing thanked him for the offer but he said he has to go home or his roommate will worry. As they send him out, Xaing told him "You're welcome here anytime."

Lai said "Ok, Chin you should be going to sleep, you have school tomorrow," as he walked into his room. She got ready for bed, while she was watching videos in bed, she could hear her brother and Zhe arguing.

"Have you been for the last 3 weeks? You know how many nights I had stayed up waiting for you to come back home," Zhe said with an upset tone while sitting on their bed.

Lai sighed and said "I was at work, working on a sculpture for a big client," in an exhausted tone as grab clothes from their closet.

"Chin said that you were with a guy all night, is the guy your sculpture," he asked in a fuming tone as he stood up.

Lai replied "Omg, Zhe stop making things up. The guy was my partner for the sculpture, without him, I wouldn't even get the sculpture done by the deadline," with an annoyed tone as he began to walk toward the door.

"How do I know that you were working, instead of sleeping with him," Zhe said.

Lai made a disbelief look and said "Are you insane? How can you come up with that thought? I would never cheat on you, you know that I'm crazy in love with you," with a furious tone.

Zhe replied "Well not crazy enough to call me or even text me how you're doing," in an upset tone.

Lai said "Let's talk about this tomorrow, I'm going to go sleep with Chin's room tonight" in a calm tone as he left their room, Zhe sighed as laid on the bed with stress.

He entered Chin's room, Chin said "You and Zhe argued, huh" in a calm tone as he nodded. "So you came here to spend the night because you don't want to be in the same room as Zhe," he nodded again. She taps on her bed for him to come to lay down, Lai said "I can just sleep on the ground if you want me to," in a calm tone.

She said "No, it's fine, just come on my bed. It's been almost two years since I got to lay next to you," in a sincere tone as Lai came to lay next to her.

Lai expands his arm and asked "Can I," as he looked at her with curiosity, she nodded so he hugged her and she hugged him back. He said "Did you get chubbier? Last time I held you like this, I could feel your ribs," in a sarcastic tone.

She gently hit him and said "Hey!! That's not nice, so what if I gain a few pounds," in an upset tone as pulled away to look at him with a pouting face.

He smiled and replied "Nothing, it's a good sign. You look healthier and prettier with the pounds you gain," with a sincere tone, he pulled her back for a hug.

Chin said "You shouldn't be talking about me, you have gotten skinnier. Have you been eating," in a worried tone.

He hesitantly said "Not really, while working, I have been eating little and drinking mostly coffee," with a quiet tone.

She said, "Hey, that's not good for your health" with an upset tone.

He giggled and said "Don't worry, I'm done with the sculpture, I will start eating like before since I don't have to stress about getting a sculpture done for a client," in an assured voice as he pats her back. She nodded as she hugged him tighter. After a few minutes of hugging in silence, Lai told her "Ok, enough of hugging, let's go to sleep. You have to sleep or you might not want to wake up tomorrow," in a gentle tone, and they both laid on their backs.

Chin answered "Fine, let's go to sleep" in a tired tone, then she yawned. They heard a "ding" sound from Chin's phone when she looked, it as Bojing, he texted "Are you still up?" She texted back "I was about to go to sleep, why are you texting me this late?"

"Who is it," Lai asked in a curious tone as he tried to look at her phone.

She quickly angles her phone so he doesn't see her screen, she answered "No one," in a nervous tone as she gave a panicked look.

That made Lai even more curious, he grins and said "You're lying, let me see," in an excited tone as he tries to grab her phone. She moved all over the place so he doesn't get her phone, then he tickles her waist, while she was distracted he grabbed her phone. He quickly looked at the texts, he whispers "Are you still up?" Then you replied "I was about to go to sleep, why are you texting me this late?" Chin who are you text," in a curious tone as he looked at her.

She answered "A friend, it's a friend. Now give me my phone" in a calm tone as she tries to take her phone.

He questioned "Just a friend right," as she nods, he added "Ok, let me read what you guys text about," in an excited tone.

She knows that there was nothing weird about their texts so she said "Fine, go ahead. My friend and I text like how friends text," in a confident tone. She just laid, staring at the ceiling as Lai was reading the texts between Bojing and her, she didn't care about the texts cause she knows they didn't text anything interesting. After a few minutes, Chin felt him moving, he was sitting up, she asked "See there's nothing interesting, now give my phone back," in a relaxed tone as she sat up while sticking her hand out.

Lai took a breath in and he calmly said "Qing Chin!," in an upset tone as her excitement went to confused. He continues "First of all, what is wearing each other's clothes about? Second of all, why did you text your friend or should I say, Bojing, "I love You" with red hearts, FaceTime him for 4 hours, again after 1 hour. I don't think you they are just friends, are you guys dating," in an amazed tone as he got out bed. As Chin was about to defend herself, Zhe, Jinyu, and Xaing burst in and shouted "What did you say?!"

No matter what she said they didn't believe her, she said "Since you guys don't believe me, I'll call him to confirm it," in an upset tone, they said ok so she called him. "Did you miss me, beautiful," Bojing answered in a flirty voice?

Chin panicked and said "Be quiet! Okay, I need to ask a question," in a serious tone, he hummed. She continues "Are we dating," in a tense tone as she looked at the guys, surrounding her.

He was quiet for a few seconds, he said "Why would you ask that," in a confused tone. Just as she was going to say something, he shouted "Of course we are," in an excited tone.

Chin shouted "Bojing!" Lai said "See I knew it, she is dating him," in a proud tone.

Jinyu said "Give me your phone I want to talk to him," in a serious tone, she slowly gave him her phone, then he went outside her room. She looked at them, Lai was happy, Xaing and Zhe looked confused, and it seems like Jinyu was mad. She has no clue what she should do anymore, all she knows is that she is going to kill Bojing.

When Lai has calm down, Jinyu came back in, he said "I already deal with him and don't even bother asking what I said to him. Okay everyone time to go to sleep, now leave." with a cold tone as Xaing and Zhe followed behind.

As soon as they left her room, she said "Let's go to sleep," in an unhappy tone, then she laid down, facing her back to Lai as she cover herself with a blanket. Lai laid down, turned off the lamp, then went to sleep. Around 4 am, Chin woke up the same way she always does, when she looked at her brother, he was still sleeping so she quietly got up to go take a shower.

At 12 am, she slowly open her eyes, she looked around, and said "Where am I," in a soft tone.

Xiu Ying went next to her and said "You're finally awake, you're at the hospital," in a worried tone as he grabs her hand.

Hong didn't have the energy to bicker with him, she asked "Oh ok, by the way, what time is it," as she looked at him.

"It's about 12 am, don't worry about work, Mr. Li said that you can take a few days off," in a calm tone as he sat next to her.

She begins to tear up and said "Doesn't that mean I miss filming and that they had to re-shoot because we left in the middle of it," in a quiet tone.

Xiu Ying said "It's ok, we can re-film it or we don't need to be in that scene," in a comforting tone and he held her hand as he gently pat them. She begins to cry while saying "No, it's not. How am I suppose to be an actress if I can't even act in that scene then how am I going to be in the other scenes," in an upset tone.

He hugged her and said "You'll be a fine actress, it's just that you weren't feel good when we were filming that scene," in an assured voice. She just continues to cry, he just told her "It's ok, just keep crying on me. Cry as long as you need, I'm here for you," in a calm tone as he just pats her on the back.

"Aww look at them, they're hugging," in a soft tone, Yu gently hit her and replied "Oh shut it, come let's give them some time alone," as she drags Xia away.

Xia said "Wait, they're usually bickering at each other, this is probably I get to see them get along. Yu let go of me!" in a desperate voice as she tries to go back to watch the adorable scene.

Hong stops crying and asked "Did you hear that," as she looked at the door. Xiu Ying shook his head, she added "Oh ok, anyways do you know what happened to me," in a calm tone as she was looking down, wiping her tears.

"The doctor said that you were dehydrated and the reason you fainted was that you lack sleep, plus you have a fever," Xiu Ying answered her as he gently grabs her chin, making her look at him.

She moves her head facing away from Xiu Ying, she said "Stop, I look so ugly right now. I don't want you to look at me," in an upset tone.

He laughed a bit and responded "Ah, ah, fine. Do you want me to leave you alone? Do you want to eat or drink anything," in a cheerful tone as he grabs her hands.

"Can you go get me something to drink," in a calm tone as she took her hands away. "Mmm," as he got up and left. When he came back, he had a bag full of different types of drinks, he said "Which one do you want? I didn't know what you like so I just got the ones I like to drink," in a calm tone as he opens the bag for her to choose.

"Did the doctor tell you if there are drinks I can't have," in a bit of a worried tone, he shook his head no so she just took the soybean milk and started to drink. After a few slips, she sighed "ahhhh" in refreshment but she sighed again in disappointment with a sad face. Xiu Ying asked "What's wrong," in a concerned tone as he sat like to her.

Hong begins to get teary again, she asked "Do you think we will be cut out from the scene because of me," in a troubled tone.

Xiu Ying told her "Hey it's fine, we still have other scenes we can be in," in a comforting tone as he pats her head. "Hey, have you wonder how these drinks would taste mix all together," he asked trying to distract her, she shook her head. He smiled and asked "Want to try," in a curious tone.

After mixing a bit of every drink into a cup, Xiu Ying said "Here, you take the first slip then tell me how it tastes," with a sarcastic tone as he handed her the cup.

"Ok, ok but you have to close your eyes because I don't want you to see me make a weird face and I know you'll laugh at me," Hong told him as she grabs the cup. He closed his eyes, after a minute, he asked "How does it tas-" just then Hong pour the liquid into his mouth, he, without knowing, swallowed it, then he started to cough.

"Yeah, how does it taste," Hong asked in a joyful tone as she was laughing as he was coughing like crazy.

While coughing, he asked "Hong... why... did.. you... do that," as he stood up, after more coughs, he fell on the ground unconscious.

Hong was still kinda giggling, she said "Xiu Ying stop playing, get up," in a cheerful as she looked at him on her bed. She called to him a few more times but he didn't respond, she begins to get worried.

Xiu Ying felt someone hold him, he heard Hong's voice calling for him to stop playing, without opening his eyes, he hugged her and said "I knew you'll worry about me," in a sweet voice. Xiu Ying receives a smack on the back of the head, which made him open his eyes, he saw that it wasn't Hong but instead it was Xia, his sister.

She dropped his head and said "Stop playing around and get up," in a serious tone as she got up as Hong and Yu were laughing really hard.

Xiu got up while whining "Oww, Xia why did you do that to me," with a pout on his face as he has his hand on the back of his head.

"Yah, who told you to play dead when we told you to take care of Hong. You're lucky Hong is here or else I would kick you," in a sarcastic tone as she sat next to Hong. "How are you feeling," Xia asks Hong in a sweet voice.

Hong smiled and answered "I feel a little better after the nap and medicine," in a calm tone.

Xia apologized "Sorry that we left you with my brother," as she glares at Xiu Ying.

She shooked her head while saying "No it's fine," in a cheerful tone. "So Xiu Ying how was the juice," Hong asked with a grin on her face.

Xiu Ying told her "The juice was horrible, I could really taste Suanmeitang, Salt soda water, C100. Probably the worst drink I have ever drunk," in a calm tone as he made a face thinking about the taste. Hong laughed a bit, making everyone else laugh a bit.
