"I guess we're sitting together," Shang Ying said to Rui Xing.
"I guess so," she replied, expressionless.
She sat down, buckled up and took out her phone. Since the library books were due that day, she already told Rui Ning to help her return them. Before that, she snapped pictures of every single page of the book to read on the plane. Rui Xing couldn't bear to not read that book. She's been saving the best for the last. How does she know the book is good? Because Rui Ning, who doesn't really like reading books at all, said that that book was pretty good! So it should be good!
Shang Ying took a peek at what Rui Xing was doing but she turned the other way to prevent him from peeking.
"What are you doing? Not letting me look!"
"I'm just reading a book..."
"Let me see!"
Rui Xing showed him her phone. He found that she was reading from her photo album. Did she really snap a pic of every page?
"You took a picture of every page!?" He was shocked that Rui Xing would actually do something like that.
"Yeah yeah... it's a library book that is due today and I have not read it yet!"
Shang Ying gave Rui Xing a thumbs up and she laughed.
Whilst Rui Xing was reading, Shang Ying was watching a movie.
After reading, Rui Xing had a wide grin on her face.
"What?"
"This book is so good! You need to read this! Look at this part," Rui Xing squealed with delight.
He read the part Rui Xing told him to then gave her an 'are you serious' expression on his face.
"It's good right?!"
"*cough cough* yeah."
*Talking to a person that doesn't read books is not fun!"
He heard what Rui Xing said but he pretended to be wearing his ear-piece.
After reading the book, she slept with a look of ecstasy on her face. She fell soundly asleep. Rui Xing didn't realise that she was leaning on Shang Ying's shoulder. Shang Ying saw her sleeping peacefully so he didn't bother waking her up to tell her that she was leaning on his shoulder. Rui Xing didn't wake up after hours. Well, she didn't wake up without Shang Ying's tap.
Rui Xing slowly opened her tired eyes and noticed that her head was leaning on Shang Ying's shoulder! She flushed. Rui Xing didn't know what to say to Shang Ying for allowing her to rest there for hours. Shang Ying could tell Rui Xing was embarrassed. He told her, "Don't worry about it..." She nodded her head still feeling a tinge of embarrassment. Rui Xing still felt the need to say sorry so she said, "Sorry, you should have told me I-" Shang Ying cut her off and replied, "It's fine."
The plane was about to land so he woke her up. She suddenly realised she wasn't holding her phone... Shang Ying saw that she was looking for something then said, handing something over to her, "You're looking for your phone right? Here you go,"
"Thank you," Rui Xing said with a cheerful smile.
( In the Japan Airport after the immigration checkpoint )
"We are finally in Japan!!" Wen Xi screamed. The people around the airport looked at Wen Xi weirdly. "Did I say it too loud?" Li Nang, Rui Xing and Shang Ying nodded their heads. Wen Xi then covered her face with her hands and Rui Xing laughed.
"Actually, how are we getting to the hotel?" Li Nang asked Wen Xi.
"Wait! Before that, let's get the WiFi device first," Wen Xi said.
"OK," they said together in unison.
They walked to a phone shop in the airport to buy the WiFi device and then they left the airport.
"Yeah, so how are we getting there?" This time Shang Ying asked.
"By Taxi," Wen Xi finally replied to the question.
"Whose paying? Don't look at me," Rui Xing responded with a question.
They looked at each other and the 3 said aloud, "Wen Xi!"
"Wait why me?"
"You suggested it," Rui Xing said while the rest nodded their heads to agree.
"Okay fine..."
Wen Xi put their luggages into the boot and they all sat inside the taxi. They arrived at the hotel and it was already late at night so they decided to not do sight-seeing.
They checked in into the hotel and went inside the rooms. Wen Xi booked 2 rooms, 2 people in 1 room. As Li Nang was not as familiar with Shang Ying, Wen Xi and Lin Nang shared a room, Shang Ying and Rui Xing in the other room.
As soon as Rui Xing got inside the room she dropped her luggage and laid down on the closest bed. She didn't even bother changing her clothes and went back to sleep on the bed... Rui Xing is definitely a heavy sleeper, Shang Ying thought to himself and carried on doing his own stuff.
