"Stop, I can't take it anymore . I have no interest in knowing how her love interest looks like," she said, trying to hold her laughter in .

He gave her a hurt look, "you are so harsh . Here I was trying to showcase my acting chops and you crushed me with that one line . The creative person inside me is feeling thoroughly unloved," he continued in the same vein .

She rolled her eyes at his theatrics and told him to stop with the exaggerated nonsense .

It was a Thursday night, when one of her favourite local bands performed at Covent Garden, every week . On an impulse, she told him about it .

"Of course, I want to go . I wanted to go the minute you declared that they are better than our band . The vocalist in me is aghast and protesting on behalf of Li Jie and Deng Chung . How dare you!" he chided her in a heartbroken voice .

"You are such a child," she shook her head and told him .

The bill came and Tang took out his wallet to settle it .

She stopped him and said, "my city, my treat . "

"Ok, remember that you said so . You may come to regret your words later," he replied, laughter tinging his tone and returned his wallet to his pocket .

They decided to walk from South Bank to Covent Garden . Moving at a leisurely pace, Jia Li acted as a tour guide once again and showed him all the places which she had frequented during her stay here all these months .

By the time they arrived, the band had already set up in the open arena and were strumming up their instruments . A small crowd had begun to gather in antic.i.p.ation .

Tang gave her a thumbs down and closed the distance between them to whisper in her ear .

"They are already starting with a minus point . Where is the female lead vocalist? I didn't expect her to be stunning like ours but having no female lead already makes it an incomplete band?" he tut tutted .

She gave him a glare and put a finger on her lips, motioning him to be quiet . The crowd was building up in numbers and someone accidentally b.u.mped into her from behind . Apologising distractedly, the person shuffled to go ahead . Tang gave him a glare and made a move to go after him but she pulled his arm back .

"I am alright . He didn't do it deliberately . Put your s.h.i.+ning armour back inside the box," she laughed .

He gave her a mock scowl and s.h.i.+fted so that he was now standing behind her, s.h.i.+elding her body from any further onslaught . After a few minutes, someone came and stood right next to him . It was a young woman, and she seemed extremely interested in cosying up to him sideways . He was slightly conscious of the same but even before he could take a step away from the woman, Jia Li turned to glare, first at her and then at him, arching an eyebrow . Wordlessly and meekly, his eyes lowered, he moved and went to stand in front of her, as if expecting her to s.h.i.+eld him . She wasn't impressed with his timid act . She had sensed the woman move next to them, almost immediately . She had waited for one full minute for him to act on his own before she turned to look at them both .

Thankfully she couldn't see his expressions right now because she would have definitely punched him in the face . Grinning ear to ear, he stood there, humming the song with the band under his breath . He could feel her angst rippling against his back and he loved it . When he had boarded the flight to London, he hadn't been sure of his reception . He had braced himself for the worst possible reaction from her . Thankfully, she had been too stunned to let her brain remind her of his sins .

He was grateful for all that had transpired this evening . It gave him hope… hope that he still had a chance . That was all what he needed at the moment .

Jia Li got shoved from behind and banged her face in his solid back .

"Ouch," she rubbed her nose tenderly after being hit by a ma.s.sive beer belly of the man behind her .

Tang frowned and looked for an alternate place to go and stand . Taking her hand, he pushed past people, making way for her and found a spot next to a pillar . Placing her in front of him, he circled her shoulders with his arms and drew her in . As a result, her back was nearly touching his chest now . Jia Li's senses started screaming danger and she took a step forward, creating slight s.p.a.ce between the bodies .

Loathed to let her go, he didn't resist though . Stop, I cant take it anymore . I have no interest in knowing how her love interest looks like, she said, trying to hold her laughter in .
