The Long-awaited Mr Han

Shi Xiaoya waved and entered the building.

Qin Zigou watched Han Zhuoling's car from afar, planning to stop him the moment Han Zhuoling got out.

However, Han Zhuoling stayed in his car, not moving an inch.

Qin Zigou was curious as to what Han Zhuoling wanted.

Yet Han Zhuoling was strange too.

He wasn't following her up, nor was he going away.

Qin Zigou was puzzled. When was he planning to go?

Just as he wondered that, the Phantom's door opened.

Qin Zigou lifted his chin and puffed his chest, waiting for him seriously.

Only to see Han Zhuoling stand by the car, his arm slung on the car door.

He frowned and asked, displeased, "When are you planning to go?"

Qin Zigou: "…"

So he was waiting for him to go first?

Qin Zigou lifted his chin, saying like a boss, "I'll go when you go."

Han Zhuoling frowned. "You first."

Qin Zigou: "Why shouldn't you be the one going first?"

Han Zhuoling: "I'm worried about you."

Qin Zigou: "I'm the one who should be worried. Plus, who are you to be worried about me?"

Han Zhuoling scowled, not replying.

Both of them were acting like kids, both refusing to take a step back, and things were at an impasse.

In the end, it was Qin Zigou who broke first. "Fine, we'll both go together."

He measured the sides with his hands. "The road is wide enough."

This was since he couldn't do anything else even if the other party came back after leaving.

Butting heads and leaving together was just a mental comfort.

Han Zhuoling accepted the suggestion reluctantly and told his chauffeur, "Leave together with him, not an inch in front or behind him."

He pointed outside the window towards Qin Zigou's car. "Must be side by side."

Chauffeur: "…"

Hence, both cars finally left together, side by side.

***

Han Zhuoling reached home and Lin Liye was beyond happy. Who'd have thought Han Zhuoling would be willing to return home one day?!

"You're back! Have you eaten? Are you hungry? Do you want some supper? It must be tiring filming a show in the outdoors." Lin Liye welcomed him at the door, her questions firing rapidly as he changed his shoes.

Han Zhuoling answered patiently, "I've eaten on the plane, so I'm not hungry. There's no need for supper. Filming wasn't so bad."

Han Zhuoling then asked, "Zhuofeng's not back?"

"He stays in school usually, and returns during the weekends," Lin Liye explained.

Han Zhuoling nodded and Lin Liye continued, "It must have been a tiring two days. Go wash up and rest. Tell me about the filming later, I'm rather curious."

Han Zhuoling smiled and nodded. "Alright."

Lin Liye looked at him in surprise. Though she did not express it, she was still amazed. This child actually smiled!

Going out for filming could really change him?

Han Zhuoling returned to his room and soaked comfortably in a bath. His tiredness having been washed away, he then sat on the bed with his iPad to check on his schedule for tomorrow. But none of the words registered in his brain.

Thinking of Shi Xiaoya ignoring him made him uncomfortable all over.

Rubbing his temple, he had no idea what came over him.

He was not going to have that much interaction with Shi Xiaoya in the future, actually.

Even if she was his appointed makeup artist for the show, he was only going to film for a few episodes, so he wouldn't spend that much time in Shi Xiaoya's company.

She was someone he hadn't seen more than a few times in his life, someone he wasn't familiar with. Why did he care so much about whether or not Shi Xiaoya was ignoring him?
