Are we good Zhenyi?" Long Jie asked once they were done with the lunch. He scooted near her and held her hand.
"Jie, that's why you asked me for the lunch?"She countered.
"Zhenyi—"
Shaking her head, she said, "No, you think that we will have lunch together and we will go back to how we were."
"Zhenyi, that's not what I think," He immediately said.
He sighed, feeling defeated because she was absolutely right. He indeed thought that he needed to do something to prove to her how serious he was about her and them. And when the opportunity landed on his doorstep that he'd think twice before ever grasping it with both of his hands. But he didn't want Zhenyi to forgive him too soon. What he did was too unfair, and besides, he was almost certain she wouldn't make a damm thing easy on him and she shouldn't either. He deserved her wrath and indifference but hell, why did it hurt so much!
"But you hoped," She said, totally seriously.
