When they arrived at the hotel, Dan lightly tapped the shoulders of the sleeping beauty in his embrace .

She slowly opened her eyes and tried to focus on the face before her .

"Wake up . Let's have lunch . " He whispered to her ear softly .

She blinked twice then she tried to get up and out of his embrace .

He gently supported her up and they went out of the car .

Dan took two parcels from his driver then they both made their way into the hotel . He handed her one of the parcels .

"Let's change first . " He motioned to the restrooms before them .

She looked at herself and understood what he meant . She was still in her cheerdance uniform and he was still wearing his baggy outfit . It would be more comfortable if they could change .

She smiled upon realizing how simple yet fas.h.i.+onable her change of clothes is .

What he prepared for her was a beige V-neck jumpsuit with white inner tube top . Luckily, she was wearing a nubra under her uniform so it was not a problem for unruly straps . The outfit also goes well with her white sneakers . She removed her makeup and exited the restroom fresh with a clean face .

He was waiting for her outside . He wore a white polo s.h.i.+rt and beige pants with his own white sneakers, obviously giving away that he prepared a couple outfit for them .

"Let's go . " He reached out his hand to her and she took it so casually .

In fact, it had been common practice for them to do so whenever they go out, though they had not clearly demarcated their relations.h.i.+p through words .

Indeed, it is a bit tricky when you take something for off-label use .

It was a buffet lunch with both Western and Asian dishes .

After eating their fill, Dan brought her to the hotel garden gazebo .

"Dori . . . " he softly said as he looked at her intently while holding her hand .

She looked back into his deep hazel eyes . She tilted her head to the side .

"I . . . about the reward . . . " he took a deep breath .

Midori smiled at him tenderly . She was not naive . At this point, she understands that they like each other and though they have yet to label what they have, they have this mutual understanding that it is something exclusive .

Dan reached in his pocket and produced a light blue, small rectangular box .

He opened it for her to see . "Will you officially be my girlfriend?" he asked with his puppy dog eyes .

She looked at him first then looked down on the rose gold necklace with a cursive D pendant with small diamonds coursing through .

She let out a breathy laugh and looked back at him teary eyed . "Yes!" she exclaimed .

He suddenly hugged her, closing the box with his other hand before tightly wrapping her in a tight embrace . His face was filled with happiness, with his wide bright smile flas.h.i.+ng his nice set of teeth .

She was initially shocked and was buried in his chest, then she managed to free her arms and wrapped them on his waist . Then she looked up to him . She was not that tall, but was not short either . Her head is just reaching his lips .

Dan met her gaze . He cupped one of her cheeks, then bent his head to kiss her .

It was dinnertime at the Xiu Mansion . . .

"I've been gone for a few weeks and you started dating a transfer student?"

Midori glanced at her mother .

Aoi kept eating while she shot her daughter a look, as if saying, 'What?'

"Nii-san, so your definition of a few weeks escalated to almost 2 months . "

Their parents exchanged looks . She is not denying it!

"Whatever . I want to meet this boy . " Masaichi tried so hard to maintain a stern look and hide his sly smile .

Midori replied indifferently, "Bring your fiancée home first . "

Xiu Jin chuckled and raised his eyebrows knowingly, sipping wine while looking at his wife .
