/ Words I was Afraid to Hear Chapter 15
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 fashionable 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 shirt 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 relationship 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 flashing 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 .
