"You " Huang Xiaoxuan widened her eyes in surprise as she saw Lyca stood next to Shen Qui, waiting for them. Lyca wanted a double date? This woman didn't tell her anything, she never even had the ti to fix herself. Huang Xiaoxuan was wearing a black flare dress. It was simple and was supposed to be sothing that she only wore inside her room or this dorm. However, she was too afraid to say anything. So, she nodded and followed Lyca and Shen Qui out of the door.
"Are we going to the fireworks festival?" She walked next to Lyca, asking ekly.
"Hmm." Lyca nodded.
"Mr. Long have you seen the firework festival before?" Huang Xiaoxuan imdiately forgot about the tense atmosphere and started talking to Long Yi.
Of course, Long Yi's expression turned sour. However, how could he treat Huang Xiaoxuan bad when Lyca was walking in front of them? So, he forced himself to talk to this woman instead.
anwhile, Lyca and Shen Qui ignored them as he started telling her about the last ti that he and his friends visited the fireworks festival.
"And you wore a Yukata?" Lyca asked, eyes full of curiosity.
"Of course not!" He frowned. Li Xian and the others have girlfriends. He didn't have one. He would look stupid standing there alone all by himself.
"Then will you wear one now?"
"Of course, I will." He said and didn't hide the excitent in his eyes.
The four of them left the building using two cars. That was because Lyca didn't want to ride Long Yi's limousine and asked Shen Qui to drive another car. In the end, Long Yi and Huang Xiaoxuan rode the limousine while Shen Qui and Lyca were using a gray rcedes.
The festival this ti would be on the East side of the city which was considered near the university. In fact, one would be able to see the fireworks from the university too. However, Lyca wanted to visit as this was her first ti at a festival and she wanted to eat so food while making Long Yi angry.
After a good five minute ride, the group finally arrived in the parking lot.
"We need to walk for about five minutes before we arrive at the food stands." Shen Qui said.
"And the Yukata?"
"We can buy a cheap one at the entrance." Shen Qui answered.
"Why would we buy a cheap one?" Huang Xiaoxuan chid in as she side-eyed Long Yi. How could Long Yi wear sothing cheap? "Where can we find sothing that doesn't look cheap? Preferably not sothing hot."
Shen Qui only lifted an eyebrow before he turned towards Lyca and ignored Huang Xiaoxuan. Clearly, Huang Xiaoxuan didn't understand that this was not a fashion show. There was no need to wear sothing extravagant as this was about the spirit of the festival, the food, the gas, and the fireworks.
Talking to Huang Xiaoxuan would make anyone crazy.
"We're not wearing the Yukata." Long Yi said.
"Up to you." Shen Qui shrugged as they started seeing more and more people walking to and from the entrance of the festival. So of them were already wearing their Yukata and even had paper umbrellas. Seeing this, Lyca turned more excited. She ignored Long Yi's dark face and Huang Xiaoxuan's complaints and held Shen Qui's hands dragging him towards the place where they can buy their own Yukata.
Just seeing their hands together made Long Yi grit his teeth in irritation. He was supposed to be the one standing next to Lyca and not so cheap bloke who didn't even bother buying a good Yukata for his date. Long Yi's mood worsened.
"We should go." Huang Xiaoxuan said. She doesn't know how to approached Long Yi's bad mood but she still pretended not to noticed the scowl on the man's face.
"Did you tell her?" Long Yi suddenly hissed. This was actually the first ti that he talked about what happened the other night since they saw each other in Lyca's room.
"Tell Tell what?"
"Did you tell her about last night?" His dark tone was enough to make her tremble. Huang Xiaoxuan's eyes reddened.
"I How could I do that?" she lied. "You told not to say anything."
"Good. What happened between us was a mistake. You better keep your mouth shut or I will make your life in the school a living hell." He said before turning his back and walking towards the store that sells Yukata. When he arrived, Lyca was already on the cashier buying a Yellow Yukata with a lot of flowery embellishnts while Shen Qui bought a sky blue Yukata with what looked like leaves as embellishnts.
He gritted his teeth as he approached the two.
"That was quick?" A fake smile slithered on his face.
"Hmmm," Lyca said. Soone like her doesn't like staying in a store like this for more than five minutes. It was enough that she liked the color. Moreover, it's not like she would wear this Yukata again after this festival. "You should choose. We are going to change."
"We?" Long Yi's eyebrows lifted.
"She doesn't know how to wear it." Shen Qui answered, he stood behind Lyca and gave Long Yi a smug smile. It was as if Long Yi's throat turned dry. What was that supposed to an? He was about to open his mouth to protest when Lyca pulled Shen Qui towards the back of the store where the stalls for changing their clothes were located.
Long Yi felt his face burned, his hands clenched as he watched them disappear from the crowd.
"I thinkwe should buy it too." Huang Xiaoxuan's voice almost made him explode in anger. He glared at the woman.
"You buy sothing for us. I will be in the stall waiting for you." He said and followed Lyca and Shen Qui. He couldn't let those two get out of his sights. He knew that Lyca was deliberately doing this because of Huang Xiaoxuan. Lyca must have thought that he and Huang Xiaoxuan are a couple. He felt that he needed to explain his side to Lyca.
