Chapter 41: Activity in the car:

After I finished getting ready Hui Yun came knocking on my door announcing that Qi Yan was already there. I walked out of my room to see my parents preparing some presents for them. It wasn't expensive but it was more just a kind gesture. "Good luck," dad blessed me as he gave me all the presents. I thanked him quickly and walked outside to see Qi Yan with another car today. It seems to be the latest model of Hondel. Why does he have so many cars? Today he was wearing fully black. He had a leather jacket on with a white blouse and black trousers. I walked up to him and complimented him saying "Very smart,". He nodded and praised me in return. I feel like I'm getting used to him praising me.

He helped me place the gifts at the back of the car and muttered "Why're you wasting so much money on those people?". "Because I need to make a good impression," I retorted climbing into the car. Qi Yan closed the back and hopped in beside me. He glanced at me and gestured for me to tie my seatbelt. I quickly tried to do it however it seems as though it was stuck. Qi Yan must've noticed my struggle because he leaned over to help me.

I could feel his jacket brushing against my chest as my breathing got deeper. He was too close!!! At this rate, I might faint. The atmosphere in the car was changing as well. Qi Yan finally managed to pull my seatbelt off and at that moment I arched my head forward as he retreated. Well, I suppose you guys can guess what happened. My lips slowly touched his and I closed my eyes out of fright. I'm not sure how long we've kissed but it was long enough for me to start losing my breath. I quickly pulled Qi Yan off me and shyly placed the disregarded seatbelt back into its place. I looked up and noticed my mum taking a picture. "Ma!!!" I shouted rolling down the window. She walked up towards me and laughed at me. "How long have you been standing there?" I asked. Mum looked at me and teasingly said "long enough to get a video,". I noticed that her phone was in her hand at that moment I leaned over to grab her phone however she removed it out of the way quickly. Why was she so smart? God, she has something else to blackmail with. "You better not post that anywhere," I muttered angrily and turned my head away from her.

At this moment Qi Yan's head was right next to mine and when my head turned it obviously would hit his. I hurriedly broke the kiss just to see both my mother and father taking a picture. What is happening today? Why do I keep on kissing him? What is going on? Is it just a coincidence or is someone playing tricks on us? Two kisses in less than a minute with both my parents taking pictures of us. How am I gonna live this down? We were both super embarrassed already so... God are you playing with me? I hurriedly placed my hands on my cheek just to stop them from going redder. My hand was quite warm, so I did not use it. Oh, God. This is not happening. I turned towards my mother and asked what she was doing outside of the house. "Oh, right you left this," she muttered pasting me my wallet. Oh, I didn't even notice I'd left this. "Thank you," I expressed my gratitude to my mum as my dad placed his hand on my mum's shoulder and wished us goodbye.

Taking the hint, I was giving Qi Yan, he quickly drove away. The journey began and it was just silence. I suppose the atmosphere had quickly changed to awkwardness quite quickly. I opened my phone to search on safari what a good conversation starter was however I noticed that my um had posted something on our family group chat. And I'm telling you this group chat was the one that consist of all my relatives from abroad and in the country.

I clicked on the message and silently prayed hoping it wasn't what I hoped it would be. I opened my eyes again and noticed that my worst dreams had come true. Everyone was online and my mum had posted the video of what had happened earlier. OML how would I ever live this down? Many people on the group chat congratulated my parents that they were able to catch such a semantical picture.

I hurriedly typed in the group chat: @mum I would very much appreciate it if you took that off. She typed back: no. I was already fuming mad however I didn't want to create a scene on the family group chat, so I opened the private message with her and began frantically telling her off. She had looked at it but paid me no heed as I continued to rant. At this moment I just logged off my phone and looked miserably at Qi Yan.
