Chapter 21 - The Goddess (Part - 1)
Their eyes rolled and they glanced at each other while being baffled, hearing the footsteps romping around in a single direction, their heart felt curious.
"How about we romp a little too" Caixia said as she winked to create a teasing atmosphere.
He laughed and they moved forward.
Rather then going toward their respective classroom, they went to the exact opposite direction.
The crowd was filling up, it was up to that extent that they felt like, they will be crushed by others body.
Struggling and making way, they stopped near a corner of the bathroom. "Ugh, it is too much! How can they walk in such a crowd without being breathless?" Caixia said while panting and supporting her body by putting her right hand on the wall.
"They all are chanting the goddess name?" he said.
Narrowly she stared him, her lips twitched as she felt perplexed.
"What goddess?" asked Caixia.
He chuckled and quickly replied, "Don\'t you know? Miss Jeremy is everyone goddess, she is the top artist in movie industry but I don\'t know what she is doing here, might be related to Zhang Jialiang".
She coughed as she saw his sad face which turned up after calling Zhang Jialiang name.
"Do you still have feelings for him?" she asked.
His eyes down and lips stretched a little, he was feeling awkward and at that situation, it become hard for him to utter a single word and he just shook his head.
She patted and turned away while saying, "Its ok, no need to answer! I don\'t want to hear either".
Caixia tongue slipped and she stared his face awkwardly.
He, too, peeked at her but seeing his gaze Caixia turned her gaze away while whistling, "I didn\'t meant that way," she said while avoiding his eyes.
He nodded while chuckling, "Let\'s go and become one of the crowd," he said.
Her lips twitched and she glanced at the crowd in dismay.
"Are you sure about that," while pointing at the crowd, she said.
He swallowed while staring at the crowd and glanced at his thin complex, "Forget it, I am thin enough. No need to go in these piggy crowd".
His words which was not too loud yet grabbed many fat ladies and gentlemen attention, and they turned back while giving an intimidating glare and cursing them.
Caixia frowned while staring at Si-ting.
All the fatties were glaring them as if ready to chew them at any moment, Caixia took a few step ahead while returning their glare childishly.
Si-ting panicked as he felt that she might get into trouble and tried to stop her, "Caixia, it was my fault, so don\'t get into fight! Let\'s go back".
She smiled exaggeratedly, "Who said I was going to fight them?".
His left eyebrow raised in confusion but he gasped as he saw the fat group stepping toward them while sharpening their hands and gritting teeth.
"So what do you want to do?" he asked while being afraid.
She backed off a little and turned back, "Run with me and you will know the answer".
His sudden expression was quite funny as he shouted, "What!!".
Hearing the loud sound of their steps approaching them, he too stopped staring while being baffled, and ran while stumbling here and there.
After running like a marathon racer, they stopped in the auditorium room which was dark without a single soul.
They both panted and Caixia while forgetting her situation muttered, "Uh! This body is so weak, I need to exercise to build its strength".
He continued to pant while leaning and supporting his upper body with his hands which were on his thighs.
"What this? Isn\'t it your body?" he asked.
She rolled her eyes and replied, "Just trying to speak as a third person".
They both took a seat which was farthest away from the stage, it was dark so they could see nothing but the sound of steps passing through which was coming from the outside.
"It seems we have to wait until they all leave," he said while scratching his head.
She nodded and leaned her head on her palms, "Is your love unrequited?".
Suddenly she questioned him out of nowhere.
He become startled and gasped, calming his heart, he replied, "Didn\'t you liked Wang Shiwei, too. How did you felt at that time?".
Caixia frowned but her expression was not visible to Si-ting eyes, since it was too dark.
"Why do he have to ask something I never knew! Anyways, I dug my own grave while being curious, so I have to give him a reply," she thought for a while.
He took her silence for something else, "It must have been hard for you to forget him, too".
She gasped after hearing his words which was exact opposite to her situation.
Feeling guilty, she replied, "Not at all, even though we are not in a relationship, still we are pretty friendly and I gave up the idea of having a relationship with him after getting into accident. My unrequited love was forgotten!".
Those last words gave him a sad vibe and he sat silently. Thinking for a while, he said, "Nothing is unrequited, I fall for his kindness which was never meant for me, and it was my stupidity to think that if I keep trying, he will see me someday, but now that I know, I will try my best to forget it".
A creepy voice of two men coming from the behind of the stage snatched their attention.
"Shhhhh!" while putting her finger on her lips, Caixia made the noise to silence him.
"Look at them, we have got some entertainment ahead of us," she whispered while chuckling with her soft voice.
"What do you mean by that?" he asked.
Putting her arm around his shoulder, she whispered, "Its my instinct that is speaking loud and clear in my head. I can feel that they will speak about some secrets in this darkness".
Even though he can\'t see her face yet he could feel by her words that she was very excited, he softly rubbed his chin while giving it a thought.
"You are speaking as if, you have done this before, too," he said.
Her lips twitched and she silently looked away while thinking, "My stupid mouth! It may become the cause of my destruction".
She patted on his shoulder and changed the topic, "Let\'s go back after hearing it!".
His eyes were staring her meanly since he knew that his questions were blocked by other topics, yet he nodded while forgetting about it.
Very low voice of two men was annoying her since it was not clear enough to be made into a picture, she again patted and whispered, "Let\'s walk a little closer and hear it all clear and loud!".
He become stunned by her guts and excited voice. "Are you sure?" he asked.
"Yeah, let\'s just head down" she replied.
It was scary enough in the dark room, yet Caixia still wanted to step deep inside the room to hear some stranger words.
He gasped but as she left, he become frightened by his dark surrounding and utter silence. Without giving it another thought, he moved behind her and followed her like her tail.
With their soft steps, they stopped near a corner and leaned on the wall.
Si-ting hand gripping a part of Caixia shirt while his another hand trembling in fear.
She glanced back at him and pressed her lips. "Are you afraid?" asked Caixia.
His eyes turned down and he felt embarrassed. "I.. I am!" he replied.
She smirked evilly but calmed her naughty self from playing tricks on him, since it could hinder them to hear the two stranger words.
"Keep grabbing on and make do with it for a while, we will leave after hearing them," she said and turned ahead.
"Make sure to take their pictures when you get the chance," With his hoarse voice, a man said.
"But what if they don\'t have any intimate relationship, we can\'t get any pictures in that situation," A heavy yet clumsy voice of an another man.
"You fool, since he have said that it will happen, then it will happen!" (Hoarse voice).
"But what if I fail to take the intimate pictures" (Heavy voice).
"There is no if, he said that he will create some moments with Ms. Jeremy and you have to take this chance to get as suitable and intimacy photographs as possible" (Hoarse voice).
It again become silence by their short pause.
Si-ting brimmed with smile, "It seems that they have gone back, so let\'s go".
She shook her head and calmly tried to hear their steps.
"They are not moving, so stay for a while or they will notice us once we open the door," she said.
He pouted and sighed.
"Boss, I will do my best but if something goes wrong then remember to back me up" (Heavy voice).
"Tsk!" he annoyingly made a voice and said, "No wonder you are still a junior after three years of training in being a Paparazzi, while others become a senior within one year. Such a stupid brat! Beat me, it\'s my fault to give you this chance" (Hoarse voice).
