She closed her eyes and calmed her throbbing headpain.
She looked at the person who raised the question earlier.
"Anyone can participate in a competition but at the end.. only one can take the prize home, Cheng Hao."
Looking at him in the eyes, she turned around, putting the wine glass onto the passing by waiters glass. The corner of her mouth displayed an arc and she walked forward to the center.
She looked at the towering figure infront of her as she faced him face to face. Noticing her gaze on him, the silver haired male gave her a wink and he indicated with his slitzy black gaze.
Standing straight and with an elegance emitting from her, Lina looked at the hall that the male went into and she followed after. She smirked and kept walking, when a hand grabbed on to her arms and took her into the quiet hallways.

Aizhe felt awkward in these sort of public gathering and banquets. The only person she knew well enough in this party was her uncle. Her uncle was busy attending to the guests, thus she left him there. Aizhe looked hesitantly at the huge banquet hall and retrieved backwards.
She kept walking backwards and when she turned around to visit the toilet, she felt herself bumped on to a really hard and sturdy chest. She was about to fall and hit the marble floor, but after a little while, she didn't feel anything.
Opening her eyes slowly, she looked up and a gorgeous view came into her view.
It was Ah Si. He looked at her and smiled dazedly with his onze eyes fixated into hers. His hands were clasped onto her back and they tightened when she moved.
Being really close, Aizhe looked on to his onze coloured eyes and his amazing facial features. For a while, she was lost in them. It looked majestic and were very detailed. His thin ruby lips and his high and profound nose that stood tall. His thick, long eyelashes that were longer than hers. He was honestly really handsome! She looked at him for a long time and didn't realize her surrounding.
Feeling her gaze on him, Ah Si felt ticklish on his his heart. He felt good and continued to hold on her.
"Are you going to hold on to me like this?" Smiling, with a bright light twinkling in his eyes, Ah Si looked at her with a smirking proud face.
Hearing the tease in his tone, Aizhe broke out of her daze and she immediately jerked forward to stabilize herself. Holding her hands, Ah Si helped her to stand up properly. He looked at her calmly and reached out his left hands.
"I am Ah Si, do you remember me?"He introduced himself with expectancy in his tone.
Aizhe looked at his hands and smiled awkwardly. She was really good and understanding with Ai but she never had a male friend.
She slowly reached out her hands and hurriedly shook it. "Of course, you are my friend, how can I forget about you?"
She looked at him and explained with her hands clasped tightly on to his. She was really eager to explain and mumbled anything she could find.
Noticing her tightly closed eyes and the sweat that was forming on his hands, Ah Si raised a brow and chuckled lowly. Tugging at his hands forward, he pulled Aizhe towards himself and looked at her shocked face and the small distance that was now between them. He reached out his hands and pulled the strands of hair on her face. He noticed her clear and natural look, and her fluttering eyelashes which casted a shadow on her profound face.
He smirked and went more closer to her. Aizhe immediately shut her lips tight and her eyes which were wide open. Noticing their closeness, she tried to break free, but to no vain. She suddenly felt a little ticklish near her ears and opened her mouth wide open.
"Mr. Ah, what are you doing?" She was about to kick him but couldn't do so as he was tightly holding on to her.
She felt more ticklish and wanted to escape free but she heard his low and deep tone which was similar to that of a whale using infrasounds. "Is it that difficult for you to be my friend..we can be more if you wish to, what say?" He spoke out while smirking. His eyes shone like the stars and his pearly teeth were shown. He went more closer and he could smell the vague smell of floral scent in her and felt her incoherent breathing. He chuckled and lowly spoke to her ears.
"It is Ah Si. But for you, it is Si." He slowly let go of her and stood straight with his hands placed on to his pants pocket. He looked posh and handsome with that attitude and deep gaze.
He shook his head when he noticed her bewildered reaction and her mouth which was wide open, mumbling something that was inaudible to him. Her eyes were also wide shot open and her body stood frozen, no limbs moving.
She looked at him dazedly and in confusion.
What was wrong with him? Did he just..? Was he trying to..flirt with me?
She looked down and her brain started to process everything. Did he just tried to flirt with her?
Slowly on her cheeks formed a red tint and her eyes broke their obnoxious daze. She looked anywhere but on him. She turned around and awkwardly looked down.
"Hehe, Mr. Ah, you really are a tease. Why would I not want you to be my friend? You and Ai are a really good friends of mine." Turning around, she looked up and her eyes caught his one. She immediately looked at somewhere else, feeling embarrassed.
Awkwardly laughing, she tried to change the conversation, but found no topic to discuss.
Feeling awkward and shy, she held on to the hem of her dress and swiftly turned around to escape, but to no vain she bumped into a hard chest yet again.
Looking up, a pair of hard gaze reached her. His eyes were filled with distance and disgust. They looked scary and terrifying.
Seeing her fall on him, he held her left arm really hard and tried to drag her, but her other hand were held by someone else.
"Ahhh, excuse me, What are you trying to do? Let go of me! It hurts.." Feeling the pain in her arms, Aizhe tried to shrug him off, but to no vain. He was holding really tight.
She stared at the man she had bumped into earlier and realized that he looked familiar. His eyes were really hard, devoid of any emotions passing, and his hands were cold. They looked familiar. He looked familiar.
"What are you looking at, huh? Was last night or enough for you? What a whore! You promised to be with me and now you are here with ano-"
"Let go." The chillingly dark tone of Ah Si spoke up. He nearly snarled his words as he glared at the man who was touching his woman.
His eyes were gleaming with darkness and displeasure as he looked at her left hand that were being held by another man. Using his force, he separated them both and pulled Aizhe behind his back.
When the guy saw who he was standing in front of, he nearly collapsed. The hand that were holding Aizhe earlier were trembling and it suddenly felt really heavy.
He looked down and tried to shrug this matter off.
"It was a mista-"
"Mistake? Who do you think I am?" Ah Si held on to his collar as he berated him with his sword like words.
Aizhe knew the matter will get worse if she didn't stop them. She looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when she realized no one was looking at them. They were near the hallway and no one passed by here as it was really silent.
