"What do you say?" Fei asked. "A bet is a bet."
"Don't tell me you're backing out," she continued, sounding dejected. However, there was an underlying guilt-inducing tone in her voice.
Kai scratched the back of his head and turned to Lina, wanting to hear her decision.
Meanwhile, inside Lina's mind, she was already plummeting Fei against the hardwood floor. However, she concealed it very well by smiling at the manager.
"I get it," she started off.
"A bet is a bet. I'm not going to back down on my word."
A huge smile made its way to Fei's lips. "I knew you were a woman of your word," she smiled.
"Of course," Lina said through gritted teeth. "It's just one date, right?"
"Yes," Fei said. "Just one date. However, if Kai wants, then we could have multiple ones right after."
Kai pursed his lips and didn't say anything further.
Lina looked at Kai with narrowed eyes as if he was the one who made the suggestion.
