Thriller Paradise

"But I cannot see any sadness on your face at all…" Feng Bujue said.

"But on your face I can still see the drips of coffee that have not been wiped clean." Ruoyu said as she used the napkin to dab at Brother Jue's left cheek.

"Ah, thank you." Feng Bujue fixed his head in place and replied.

"Do not have any wrong idea." Ruoyu added without any expression, "I merely realized after I splashed the coffee at you, many people were looking this way. So I am doing this now for my own convenience."

"Oh… about that, you were wrong." Feng Bujue said with a smile, "Actually from the moment we walked into this café, many people were already looking our way, it was all because of your looks, it has nothing to do with the fact you have thrown the coffee at me."

"Well, I am sorry for looking this way…" Ruoyu said as she pulled back her hand.

"It is not just your looks, your body proportion is also…" Feng Bujue snickered salaciously as he moved his gaze downwards.

"What fun do you get from gazing at my body through the clothes all day?" Ruoyu glared at Brother Jue.

"Of course, it's fun." Feng Bujue said jokingly. "But… based on what you said, do you have any idea that will be even more 'fun'?"

"Of course." Ruoyu replied, "Poking your eyes blind, neutering you… they are all fun ideas to me."

At this point, the smile on Brother Jue's face grew bigger. "Hah… did you not notice that how much you sound like me now?"

"Hah… you have to be kidding, how would I sound…" At this point, Ruoyu's eyes froze because she suddenly realized how similar she sounded to Brother Jue in her statement.

"See, I told you." Feng Bujue shrugged, "I have already noticed this in the scenario a few days ago… In the past, you would verbally tussle with me as well, even though the word choice was still sharp but there was no meat behind them; but now… you are indeed a woman of sharp tongue, one that could cut down any man." He leaned his body backwards. "And you will only show that side of you when you are communicating with me or when are alone."

Then Ruoyu sunk into silence. One minute later…

"Waiter!" Ruoyu suddenly turned around and shouted at the waiter that was closest to them. The waiter was a young man over 20, he had already noticed this table of two insane persons… one was all smiles, while the other was an empty mask. When they chatted and even after the incident of the coffee to the face, their expressions hadn't changed and they continued like normal…

"Is there anything that I can…" The young man rushed over and enquired formally. But Ruoyu cut him off brusquely. "Give us two more of the same drinks, thank you." She spoke very quickly and sounded rather urgent.

"Okay." With that, the waiter took away the cups with his fastest speed and then retreated.

"Ha ha…" Brother Jue glanced at the young man who was scared away before turning back to Ruoyu and smiled. "Looks like… someone has gotten a bit ruffled."

"I can't deny that." Ruoyu said softly, "I am rather annoyed."

"Compared to annoyed…" Feng Bujue corrected, "Mainly, it's more of being embarrassed right…?"

"When the coffees are served, they will be piping hot." Ruoyu glared hotly at Brother Jue, "So you better try to temper the excited glint in your eyes."

"Fine~" Brother Jue changed his expression just like that and put on his usual expression that showcased a lack of interest in everything. "I will not bring this up ever again, just pay more attention to it yourself… Of course, if you can't change back to the way you were, I wouldn't have minded."

"Hmph…" Ruoyu did not continue this conversation but sighed with displeasure. Because of this a hue of redness surfaced on her fair cheeks. In the real world, this was the first time Brother Jue encountered something like this. Honestly speaking, with Li Ruoyu's looks, she would be an apple in everyone's eyes, be it her lover, her enemy or even a neutered man…

"Phew…" After another silence, Ruoyu appeared to have made some decision. She took a deep breath and then said seriously, "After this, don't go back first, come back home with me…."

Feng Bujue's reaction aside, at the same time Ruoyu said that, the waiter had just arrived with their coffees. "This is your coffee." The waiter's expression and action were obviously more awkward. He put the two cups of coffee swiftly down and then escaped in a puff of smoke as if he had heard something he should not.

"Come back home… with you?" Feng Bujue pretended to repeat in calm. When he spoke, he even acted like this was nothing special. He reached out to grab the coffee but his shaking hands that caused the bottom of the cup to clink against the saucer had belied his real feeling.

"There is something… that I want to give you." This time it was Ruoyu who had returned to normal.

"Erm…" Brother Jue held the cup and froze for a long time. "Will your parents be okay with that?"

"What does this have to do with them?" Ruoyu replied. "Furthermore, my bedroom is not on the same floor with them. If you sneak up with me, they won't even know you have been there."

"So this is something that you can only show me in your bedroom…" Brother Jue's cold sweat slid down his face.

"Yes." Ruoyu answered matter-of-factly.

Hearing that, Brother Jue was frozen for another 10 seconds. Then he sipped at the coffee with his shuddering hands. "Then… do you mind if I ask, what kind of thing is it?"

Something flashed across Ruoyu's eyes. "it is… a bit embarrassing…" A hue of shyness laced through her cold tone. "To talk about such a thing here out in the public…"

[Hey!] Feng Bujue roared internally. [What the hell is going on! And she does not look like she is acting… After being chided by me until saying 'follow me home', just what kind of thoughts have been going through your mind?!]

On the other end, Ruoyu was still continuing, "Hmm… technically speaking, this thing originally belongs to you, I have kept it for you for many years already, I believe it is about time I give it to you…"

"Pfft!" The coffee blasted out of Feng Bujue's mouth. Thankfully he did not splash them on Li Ruoyu's face but on the floor next to him.

"Jeez… what are you doing?" Ruoyu narrowed her eyes.

"Cough… Erm… Cough…" Feng Bujue really choked on the drink. He hacked seriously and caught his breath before he said, "It's… it's nothing." He paused. "By the way… why would you suddenly decide to want to give me… that… now?"

"It's not really a sudden decision." Ruoyu said, "I have been meaning to give it to you for quite some time already, but I don't have the chance. When I first saw you inside Thriller Paradise, I already have the urge to directly give it to you but later I hesitated so it was dragged until now." From the start until the end, she uttered in a normal tone… but Feng Bujue was totally shocked.

"ha… ha ha…" Feng Bujue's lips twitched and he laughed drily. "Alright… since you have already made that realization, then I have no choice but to oblige…"
