Vol1 Earth-5-
Her sweet face and approaching body to Yun by stepping forward.. created a frightening strain on this young fella. It was a little bit, but Yun still found hard to say something logical.
With a deep breath he found his logic and normal mind again.
Yun had tensed up for the first time and could not find what to say, because he was not use to do these. Also a deep note; He'd love to say, "Yes, I'll spend time with you beautiful thing." But,
"I'm sorry. I need to pick up someone I've been waiting for so long on this day. I should really be at the airport few hours later."
Her eyes filled with concern at a time like this. Why? Yun was thinking hard to find the reason. This girl was an adorable and charming girl. If you didn't see angelic girls and young looking middle age Gradies from other world, he would be shocked. But he was used to spend time with charming womans after months of time.
Also this girl is still walking over me! Isn't she overreacting a little?
"Well, would you mind if I came with you? I won't give you any trouble. I promise."
Yun felt his heart accelerating little by little. He wanted to say "yes" again. His heart was cursing and begging him to make him say Yes!
But would it be appropriate?
"Lets ..aah, you already added me on the phone just now, so would we meet tomorrow? I should really deal with this important matter alone. It is a matter of life and death." Yun didn't even want to say no. But it was the most urgeng matter he must do in this life.
But in seconds, turned out that this little fetchy-witch didn't understand "no".
"I'll go with you and make no noise. Please go with me. I also have a car, if you want to go with my vehicle, it would be easier ha??"
Yun hesitantly looked into her eyes. She really looked sincere and didn't look like a swindler.
"If I say yes, do you promise not to stab me in a dark street a few hours later? Hahaha."
He gave her phone back with a frightening joke and took the books under his armchair. Yun knew it was a bad joke to tell to a stranger.
"Ah also, I need to find another book. You may wait me in the entrance or come with me. It will be quick."
"All right. Mei Zhen, by the way. My name which you didn't ask!"
"I'm Yun. Gong Yun, but in short, please call me Yun. I don't know why my family gave that name."
The girl who called Mei Zhen gazed over Yun's relaxed and funny expression. It was just a last resort to save herself from a bad situation.
But she found out, the one and only people reading from the top floor was a weird and handsome boy. She felt interested in this young man without a proper reason.
Mei Zhen was a too famous girl to hang out in "public libraries". But today she made an exception.
But things turned around and gave her a surprise right? It was a good decision to come here. She slightly smiled and started walking alongside this strange man named Gong Yun.
..
Mei was shorter than Yun and she had a beautiful scent of perfume. Her hair was tightly bound. She also looked so sweet with the hat on her head. Yun didn't know that but this hat's price was more expensive than his whole apartment's total price.
"Mei Zhen ha. Your family should have thought a lot before giving you that name. Ah ah.. my poor luck.."
Yun sighed and remembered his childhood. He gritted his teeth as he remembered the wave fights and funny moments with his friends on the street.
While thinking his childhood, he didn't see the eyes of Mei. He was deeply in his thoughts. They went downstares and walked to deeper sides. After seeing the windows and the dark sky without stars, they found the part of Yun seek.
After seeing the section about cooking books, Yun stopped thinking about his stupid past.
"Now I'm looking for a book about simple recipes made in old times. Could you help me?"
Without waiting for an answer, Yun suddenly rambled through the shelves. He was so self-confident and relaxed that the girl watching him was a little puzzled. Mei Zhen was used to be like this guy. Collecting all the attention but never pay attention to others.
It was an invisible shirt on people. No one could see this cloth but everyone could feel it.
It was a cloth named "Courage". Mei found out after thinking about it. This guy had a strange aura on him that telling others he wouldn't feel fear no matter what. It was like he was immune to all the dangers.
Even Mei didn't have this much nerve in her peak moments of life. She became even more curious and continued to stare this "mysterious and "handsome guy.
Ah! Now I find him handsome too Mei, be careful! He is too dangerous for young womans like you.
..
Mei still looked at Yun and lost her composure. She fell in thinking about randomly about Yun.
For example she imagined Yun as her friend. Was that possible?
She started thinking about a hypothetical relationship or even a little intimacy.
Oh no! Mei Zhen!!! Check yourself pls. I m begging myself right now... I'm losing my mind because of this weird handsome man. Ah NO! Don't think about his perfect hair and good shaped body. Also I shouldn't think about his manly smell!
"..." Mei Zhen _I am screwed already.
..
Actually she was doing this for the first time due to her troubles. She never asked a guy to spend some time together. Even the meaning behind the words was humiliating. She was supposed to get through the reporters at the entrance of the building. But the encounter with this young man was very strange.
A normal teenager should have already complimented her a thousand times. or examine her body secretly, give her dirty looks to give her other meanings for adult stuff. At the very least, talk about himself and be proud to be with her!
At least smile to me, you damn casanova. Damn it!!!
Questions and answers has always pursue her, whereever she went. She was even mentally prepared for many more. But Yun was studying books like he didn't care. Even his gaze never turned to her.
"..." Mei Zhen
"Ahha! I have even found it." * 1800's DINNER TIME FLAVORS"
It had been written by a famous chef a long time ago. The man also received help from historians. That was exactly what I was looking for. Hahaha...
Laughing like he found the meaning of life, Yun approached Mei Zhen and showed the book.
"You know, because there wasn't much cooking ingredients in the old times, people had to improvise, and sometimes they used recipes that we can't see now.
When Yun saw that Mei had a face with such an interest, he smiled and showed off his other books under the armchair. But the thing he didn't know was, Mei was a professional in acting. She earned her money from that...
Yun ignored his tight schedul and started to begin his weird speech, "In ancient times, when there was no technology, construction of big buildings and proper toilets were much more challenging. But people managed to find easy paths. Or there are simple mechanisms in agriculture that were installed with some rope and hose. Look at this book. It explains everything from ancient time agriculture. It will save my time greatly."
Mei Zhen shook his head and examined three books. Then he looked up at Yun with his head raised. She didn't say anything, but she was a little confused while giving the books back.
"Is he crazy or a secret genius?"
She had to get along with this young man until she get out of the museum door. But she still felt like a little school girl looking his lover with pure and innocent interest.
..
Mei took her chance and tried to pretend like lovers. She took Yun's arm and linked their arms in an intimate way. She even thought about hold his hand, but did scared to do it. Yun noticed that the arm thing but he didn't mind at all.
It's like he wasn't attracted to her beauty. He wasn't getting mad, excited, or staring at her. Get sweatyh with their touch or become nervous. He was really like a cold brother.
All of a sudden, Mei's competitive side got angry.
"Hey. You have a girlfriend or something?"
Yun suddenly turned around as if his attention was elsewhere, and he thought before answering.. "Actually, I never had a girlfriend. There was no time. Now it's worse and still have no time..."
As soon as Yun remembered something, he shook his head.
"Now I have to live in the not one but the two worlds. What lover. I wonder if I ever have time for such childish things in my whole life."
He said his last words inside. But Mei Zhen was relieved to hear that this boy wasn't in a relationship. Then she noticed her own strange thoughts and remembered her weird question. Wt-hell! She got angry to herself.
"Why I do care him so much? We'll never meet again. I don't believe in love at first sight or the existence of a real proper man who can love with pure intentions. I don't believe any man is good. Ah, except my father!"
..
Mei Zhen was so distracted that they left the museum and got out succesfully from barrier of paparazzies.
Yun walked into the parking lot with a marketbag in one hand, and a sweet girl on the other.
In that moment Mei was thinking about boys and her famous life while Yun was thinking about other world and his master's mission on this planet.
This time it was not for building ideas and ridiculous other hobbies. This was an important task!
He turned to the girl in his arm when they got to the entrance of the parking lot. She was also deep in thinking something while staring Gong Yun by coincidence. She noticed the gaze with strong intent at her.
When Yun asked hesitantly, even though he didn't notice it, his tone and face seemed so sweet to Mei Zhen.
"Is there something in my face?"
Yun had grown up not knowing he was really handsome. He was very poor at the university and he had never been with people except to go to an internet café with his close friends. As the classes ended, he always got to the bus and arrived his job on time.
In short, the girls from class who tried to show interest had no chance.
Mei Zhen, blushing as if guilty of being caught, gestured in the direction she left her car. Yun didn't ask any more questions. He was never talkative except for his talks with his master in Kelewan.
But this silence had an side effect that made Mei think she was not attracted.
Gradually Mei was getting more and more angry. Yun's image become even more attractive after thinking like a grudging girl. She suddenly took a key out of her pocket and threw to air through Yun.
"Why don't you try it until the airport ha?"
