CHAPTER 362 – Return
By the next morning, Andromeda and Liu Xueyi found their way to the restaurant owned by the Ye\'s in the park for breakfast.
What they were not counting on finding were the familiar faces that graced the Halloween party last night.
"Hey," Li Jing waved at them, signalling them over to their table.
Recalling all that happened the previous day, Andromeda flashed a calm forced smile that Liu Xueyi was sure she was having a hard time holding in.
It was one thing for her to act like she was not shy but he knew better.
With the way they all stared at them—her to be precise, like lions waiting patiently for their prey to walk into their den, he knew she was getting nervous.
Halloween party aside.
Without being told, he knew he had to take care of the situation before she got there. Give her a little bit of reassurance.
Just as she placed her right foot in front, Liu Xueyi pulled her by the hand, bringing Andromeda back.
Shocked, her lips fell open as her widened eyes glanced over him.
"Breath."
Those words had sealed out whatever little protest she may have and she swallowed it, nodding at him.
"You\'re not a lizard, love. Speak," Liu Xueyi admonished her.
"Sure," she responded and drew in a deep breath.
Keeping his eyes on her face and chest, watching how her chest rose and fell, he nodded after she repeated the action a couple of times and smiled.
\'It is not about them. I know you feel overwhelmed a bit but remember, you are a star too."
"I\'m a sta…" she blew air from her mouth and shook her head.
"Hey, you are my woman. That alone makes you a star but then you are a queen on your own. Never forget that my love. Never."
Having such encouragement from him, she nodded in understanding and gave her best genuine smile.
"They are watching and may have been wondering what has been going on."
"Let them watch," he said and winked at her.
Immediately her cheeks flushed as both of them turned around to face the others.
As much as Andromeda wished to hide her face, she wore her blush proudly as they walked over to the others.
"I was wondering if you will not be taking our offer," Li Jing stated and squinted suspiciously at both of them.
"Of course, we were coming over. Good morning, everyone," Li Jing enunciated.
Immediately their reply echoed all around Li Jing and she smiled at her.
"Hello, Xueyi."
"Hmm, first name basis," Ye Cheng mentioned, hinting at the newfound closeness between them as he leaned forward and rested his chin on her shoulder.
"Do not tell me someone is jealous already?" Li Jing pointed out and she too leaned back, sending her body into his waiting arms.
All the while Andromeda\'s eyes remained fixated on them. She was shocked at how shamelessly they flaunted their love to the others.
This was mainly due to the fact that Liu Xueyi loved doing the same.
"You think only you two are love birds enough?" Fong Wei Ling asked and gestured towards two empty seats opposite him. "Please sit."
"Thank you," Liu Xueyi appreciated. Once seated, he cast a side glance at the couple who till now remained lost in each other, ignoring all of them completely.
"It is not a shock. I prefer when couples go out this way without holding back."
"Meaning you are a PDA person," Yin Lifen stated and waited for proper clarification.
"Yes."
"And what of Andromeda here?"
"Fen-Fen," Jia Huang shot her a warning glance.
He knew she could be all going to the point of intruding on someone\'s privacy and after Andromeda behaved the previous day, he did not want a repetition.
"It is okay, Aiden," Andromeda quickly informed him before he chided Yin Lifen.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes. In fact, I love I when Xueyi does it. Hehhe."
Before long everyone got engrossed in the conversations being shared and got to know each other more.
By the time they were done with dinner, Liu Xueyi had to cancel some plans Ye Cheng had that evening and invited them for.
The next day was going to be a big day and a work day at that.
Even if he could take the day off, he needed to be responsible enough. Just like that their vacation came to an end.
Not only did it succeed in bringing them closer, but it also helped them form friendly relations.
"Where you happy?" Liu Xueyi asked the moment the plane took off.
"Yes. I had a nice time and most importantly, I got laid."
He blushed at her comment. It was both funny and sexy.
"I think that is the part you loved most wasn\'t it?" He teased.
Rather than refuting his words as he had expected, she shrugged and giggled softly as she threw her head back against the seat.
Just watching her actions, his jaw dropped almost instantly, understanding that his words were really valid.
"You\'re naughty."
"And so are you. I loved it. Hehe."
Before he got the chance to tease her further, she lifted her head and quickly grabbed his head, placing both hands on the side of his face and bringing his lips closer for a kiss.
"Muah! There you go. Thanks for being so great in bed."
All through their journey, only thoughts of their lovemaking filled his mind.
If not for the fact he needed to make a report at the office, he would take her home for another round.
Sadly, his time for fun was caught abruptly by the dawn of a new day named Monday.
As soon as they alighted from the plane and got their luggage, a text entered Liu Xueyi\'s phone as the notification set off.
Stopping briefly, he reached his hand into his trouser pocket and took out his phone.
"You\'re needed on set for the emergency shooting within the next hour. An email concerning this was sent. Please avail yourself. Director."
Liu Xueyi\'s eyes widened. He had gone for a vacation and turned off anything relating to his acting life but now…
"Damn it," he cursed in a low tone.
"Yes, what is it?"
"Oh, nothing. I am sorry but head home without me. I need to rush to the office. I would take an excuse for you, so you can rest up. Tomorrow, you resume work."
