When Lu Kai arrived at the cafeteria, he exchanged his lunchbox with Bing Shi’s food, while his eyes were glued to his phone. She had continued to live in the same apartment as her father, built up their bond, donated a quarter of her income, and lived frugally.

People began to take her benevolence for granted. After starring in another successful movie, she appeared in the public wearing a couture dress worth ten of thousands, but nobody noticed how astonishingly beautiful she looked- they only saw the price tag.

People had started to reprimand her for how she carelessly spent her money and how it would be better if she returned the dress and donated the money to those in need. They said that it was a waste of money for her to throw away the clothes she brought, despite it looking gorgeous. Because of the people’s reprimandings, she sulked for a whole day.

Bing Shi’s mission depended a lot on the public’s opinion and so, as a consequence, she became overly sensitive to the slightest hate even though she was well aware that pleasing everyone was impossible.

@Bobsy: If she was really benevolent...she would not wear that, or eat meat or dairy, and would give ALL her money away...not give away a few thousand and keep a million for a rainy day.

@Kanlikman: There’s nothing wrong with spending your hard-earned money and showing it off??? Why so mad??? She can be benevolent and still be humble.

.....

@Anelaxa43: Silika doesn’t deserve that much praise. She does these things only for the camera. People like her have a PR team to make her look great. LOL! Her? Humble? Who’s going to believe that when she shows off so much in front of all these cameras? Why can’t she do all those good things off-camera?

@Mr.Jelly: Sounds like you’ve got a complex over someone being a good person. Why don’t you do a good deed too, like shutting up and selling your organs for charity?

“When are you going to come back?” Lu Kai mumbled sadly as he viciously fought a valiant battle with internet trolls, “I miss you.” He wanted her to move back to their nest.

“...” Bing Shi picked up her phone so she could dial a familiar number, “Dad? Yeah, I’m at work. Wait, I want to introduce my husband to you.”

She gave her phone to Lu Kai. She seemed to preen as her lips began to rise, “I’ll come back whenever you’re ready.”

Placing his phone aside, Lu Kai took her phone while ignoring the curious looks around them, “Hello? Mr. Lin? It’s me, Lukas, Silika’s...hu...number one fan.”

“The number one fan?” Silika Lin’s father responded in realization, “I thought she got into another trouble with president Mo Luwei and almost got a heart attack. Sigh, that girl... Young man, I know you like her, but don’t take her words to heart...”

“Yes, I almost got a heart attack too. Now that I’m speaking with you, I would like to ask for your permission to take your daughter on a date,” Lu Kai stopped for a few seconds before he began to laugh softly, “From the way she referred to me, I think she feels the same way about me. Mm, we’ll be careful. Thank you for worrying about us...”

Bing Shi munched on her sweet potatoes. It was obvious that she was listening in on their conversation, “A heart attack, really? Couldn’t you at least show a surprised expression?”

Bing Shi carried a doubtful expression when he gave her back the phone, not at all caring that she just confessed to a man in front of the whole cafeteria. Everyone would think it was a fluke anyway.

“Do you have an idea for a date?” Lu Kai asked. He hid his traces enough for the most to take him for an orphaned teacher.

It was for the best to own nothing but control everything. If he didn’t own a yacht, home, cars, helicopter, or a private jet but had access to all of it by picking up the phone what would be the difference? He thought of waiting until she gained some wealth to completely cross out the possibility of her being a golddigger by the world, but his woman showed no sign of becoming rich any time soon.

What was the point of earning money if she couldn’t enjoy spending the money she or he worked hard on getting? Yeah, she was still sulking about her dress... And seeing how she attempted to normalize being single, it felt as if she would divorce him any moment.

“I don’t want you to give up your privacy for me.” Bing Shi thought it would be unfair if all of a sudden, intimate details about his personal life could go public because of his relationship with her.

It took a very secure person to date a celebrity and it also took someone with a hard to trigger temper to handle flirtatious fans and tabloids that took their devotion too far.

“I have an idea for our date. Let’s go somewhere where we would have no privacy. Is that good enough?” answering in her stead, he proved that he didn’t mind giving up his privacy. He took a matching couple ring out of his pocket and put it on his ring finger.

While keeping a composed posture, Lu Kai grabbed her hand, used her phone to take a photo of their interlocked fingers, and posted it online.

@SilikaLin: Insecurity hit me hard today. Sorry. #MrJelly

“Like... the company’s cafeteria where everyone knows me?” Bing Shi blinked her eyes rapidly. Much to his joy, her cheeks dimpled with the colour of blossoming roses as she continued to munch on her sweet potato in an attempt to distract herself from his hand that was scorching hot.

Much to Bing Shi’s bewilderment, she could feel his heat transferring through her body, warming up from their interlocked fingers and gradually travelling to the depths of her belly, “That’s one weird courtship. And I thought you wanted to try out the food.”

“I was never one to follow textbook courting,” Xuan Mu let go of her hand and began to eat her cafeteria meal, “I’m not a con artist that would do anything to date a woman that’s clearly not interested in me. Doing romantic gestures before dating... It’s like I’m telling the woman that I would treat her like that all the time.”

“What if there’s a woman who shows interest in you?” Bing Shi stared at her hand that was covered in his sweat. Not bothering to move her hand at all from its splayed position on the tabletop, she motioned for him to clean it for her.

He stared at her hand in silence; he wasn’t used to doing these kinds of things outside of his comfort zone. Never mind the fact that pretending to please his lover in front of outsiders... it just wasn’t his thing.

Bing Shi could feel the tint of rebelliousness that was so specific to him. The post wasn’t an apology for the fans but rather, it was an apology to her. He wasn’t one to waste time, so on some occasions, this made him look lazy.

Up until he posted, it looked like he didn’t put much thought into pleasing her until he had showcased them planning a fabulous date that would wow everyone. In only one swift move, he dealt with her father, the public, her suitors, and the old elites by implying that he was really just a fool in love- so foolish was he, that crippling Mo Luwei was just some kind of revenge.

“A woman that likes me as much as I like her is another story though. I wouldn’t mind fulfilling some of her fantasies.” Taking wet tissues out of her purse, Xuan Mu lifted his gaze to meet her adoring eyes.

He shifted his gaze away from her to wipe carefully at her hand- even without all the theatrics she did, she would know that the special treatment he gave only to her was still there. It was subtle, but that was because she was more straightforward and direct, while he was not.

Call him a coward, but even if he loved a woman, his love still wouldn’t be enough to make him confess. But what about one that already knew his feelings before he even realized that he had some?

He continued to wipe her hand gently, “I couldn’t help myself. You triggered me...by how you described me in front of your father like it was a prank. Whether you want it or not, we’re officially a couple. I’ll be content with being your boyfriend for now or... even just being one of your suitors would do.” Just don’t be too angry at him, please.
