Xue Er's Lunch Delivery

Wei Wei left her room and Xue Er is alone in her room. "When did this get here," she wonders to herself. She gazed across the window and saw Zhi Chen's room light on. "Did he…?" she touched her necklace again and smiled.

She took her huge teddy bear and sat it by the window while hanging a note around its neck: "THANK YOU FOR GIVING IT BACK!" for him to see when he has the chance.

As she was about to dive in her bed, Wei Wei peeked in again and demanded, "Go shower and eat with me." Xue Er shrugged, "I don't feel like eating." Wei Wei notices the bear and smirks, "Too busy thinking about him to eat, ain't I right?" Xue Er burst out, "NO!" Wei Wei gave her a suspicious look, as she raised her left eyebrows. Xue Er glances over, "Fine, be there in 10 minutes. What are we eating?" After Wei Wei successfully got a taster, she left while saying, "You will know once you come down."

After Xue Er headed down to the dining room, she could already smell something burning, "What is this smell?" as she asked, covering her nose. Wei Wei turned around, giving a smile, "Come try this. I found this recipe on the media." Holding the final dish up with pride. "So I'm here… to be your white mouse, huh?" Wei Wei glared at her, "Don't make it sound like that. It's actually good."

Pushing the dish away, "Feed whatever that is to Yi Ping." as Xue Er said, staring at it in disgust. Silences fall upon them. Xue Er looked at her sister whose face turned into a nice tomato color and covered her mouth, "No WAY!... OMG! IT'S MADE FOR HIM?!", Xue Er guessed in shock. "Since you already figured it out. Be my white mouse for today. Please?" acting all cute. Xue Er asked, "What do I get in return?" "A full stomach?"

"Ehhh?" Before Xue Er could complain, Wei Wei, fed her a spoon.

Xue Er raises one of her eyebrows, "how is it?" as Wei Wei nervously waits. Xue Er looks at her sister and wonders if she should tell the truth. She clears her throat and takes a sip of the water, "well, there's room for improvement." There was a long silence, "was it that bad?" and she took a bite too. "EWWW, it's not even cooked. How did you even swallow it," her brows furrowed and looked at the plate of pasta that she made. "Let's make it again." "s-sis, wait up. It's kinda late right now and I have to go to bed." But Wei Wei didn't care, "You're not going anywhere. You still have to try the food after it is done."

Xue Er's face went pale and tried to figure out a way to escape. "STAY THERE," as Wei Wei steps back into the kitchen. "What's with all these noises," as their mother came down. "Mom please save me," as Xue Er whispers to her. She realized what's going on and quietly turned and went back up ignoring Xue Er. "M-mom, where are you going??" as Xue Er stressed out.

The next day….

"Xue Er wake up or else you're gonna be late." as Wei Wei storms inside her room. Yesterday the food tasting didn't end till the morning at 3 am. "I'm so tired. I can't even open my eyes," as Xue Er complains. "C'mon let's get going. You have to bring this for Yi Ping and I made one for you too," as she holds up two lunch boxes in front of her. Xue Er took a peek, "No Thank you." Wei Wei puts down the lunch boxes and screams on top of her lungs. "BAI XUE ER, GO GET READY RIGHT NOW OR ELSE I'M GONNA TELL YOUR ZHI CHEN SENIOR…" Hearing the name Zhi Chen made Xue Er pop out of her bed. "I should've done that in the first place," Wei Wei sighs and walks down the stairs.

"Have fun at school," as Wei Wei drops her outside of her school. Xue Er gave her an eye look. "And don't forget about the lunch box." Xue Er closes the door and starts walking towards the school entrance. "Good morning, master Xue." Yi Ping puts his arm around Xue Er and starts walking. "Why are your eyes so puffy and dark? You didn't sleep? You look like a panda." as he laughs, Xue Er stops and looks at him. "This is all your fault," and drops both lunch boxes in his hands.

"Did you stay up making lunch for me?!" Yi Ping shockingly asked. Xue Er smiled at him and sarcastically added, "Hope you enjoy it!" as she pats his back. Zhi Chen was already at the entrance and saw everything. Seeing her happily handing Yi Ping the boxes, he angrily crumbled one of his fan's letters. "Zhi Chen senior???" one of the fans called out after seeing her letter being crumbled. "Oh, my bad. Thank you." after realizing what he did and began going to his class.

Xue Er notices him as he leaves the crowd, "I got to go. See ya." rushing to Zhi Chen. "Zhi Chen senior!" she shouted across the hall. He turned around but continued to walk. "Wait!" as she tries to hurry to his side. His fans stopped her and cornered her, "Do you need something with our senior?", looking down on her. She stood there frozen, "No." Just then the school bell rings, "I got to go."

Sitting in her first period, she began to space out, "Did he not hear me? But he turned around." Unknowingly, her teacher has been calling her name, "Xue Er… Xue… XUE ER!" Xue Er snapped out of it and shouted,"YES!"

"Read the next paragraph," she strictly demanded. Staring at her book,"... I don't know...where we are at," nervously looks up at the teacher. When they finally made eye contact, the teacher strictly claimed, "Come see me during your lunch period." Xue Er quietly answers, "Yes." The teacher went on and called on another classmate to read. "It's all Zhi Chen senior's fault," she mutters.

At lunch, Xue Er went to the teacher's Office, "Teacher, I'm here." "Oh, yes… " as she lifted her glasses, "Perfect, I wasn't expecting this many books. Help me carry these books to the library with my assistant as your punishment instead of hearing me talk." "Yes."

"Teacher, I'm here," her assistant greeted her. "Good, you have a helper today. Carry these books to the library. Thank you." "No problem." as he looks at who his helper is. "Zhi Chen senior," Xue Er waved with a smile. After seeing her, he quickly avoided her and gathered the books, "Let's go" coldly said.

Heading to the library, Xue Er couldn't help but feel awkward, "Zhi Chen senior...did you sleep well yesterday?" she asked, starting a conversation. He quickly ended it with, "Yeah." But she didn't stop, "Did you eat dinner last night?" Again he answered, "Yeah." "Good, cause last night my sister-" Before she finished her story, he interrupted, "We are here." As he went in leaving her hanging, "Did I upset him?"

"Good afternoon, we're here to return the books," as Zhi Chen drops the book in the front. "You bought your girlfriend today, Zhi Chen?" and she looked at Xue Er, and gave her a warm smile. Zhi Chen looks at Xue Er, "She's not my girlfriend." The librarian clears her throat, "well do you mind helping me put these books back on the shelf?" "Sure," and Zhi Chen grabbed the stack of books and put it on a pushing cart. "I'm gonna help you," as Xue Er said it quietly and followed him. As they are putting the books back on the shelves, Xue Er looks at him nervously.

Zhi Chen notices her staring, "What? Anything on my face?" he continues putting the books on the shelves. "Did I do something that upsets you?" as Xue Er anxiously stares at him for a response. "No," and continues what he's doing. Xue Er couldn't hold back anymore and walked over to him. "Look at me," as Xue Er stops what he's doing and puts her hand on his hand. Zhi Chen looked at her and finally spoke up, "What's your relationship with that guy?" Xue Er looks at him confusingly, "What guy?" Zhi Chen shifted his eyes away, "nevermind, forget what I just said." He finishes putting the last book and starts walking away. "Hey, you didn't tell me who it is yet." Xue Er tries to catch up to him.

"Master Xue, there you are. I was looking for you. Thanks for the food today. It wasn't bad and I saved the other one for you." He walks over to Xue Er and hands her the lunch box. Zhi Chen looks at both of them as Xue Er takes it from him. "I'm gonna get going now," as Zhi Chen coldly walks away. "Wait, where are you going? You didn't even tell me yet." as Xue Er calls out to him.

"Young lady," as the librarian calls out to her. Xue Er turns around and looks at her. "Did you do something that made him mad?" "No, I don't think I did." The librarian laughed, "Are you sure?" As Xue Er starts walking back to class, she wonders if she did make him mad. "But what could it be?" as she wandered and didn't realize a puddle of water in front of her.

Suddenly, she felt a pull from behind, resulting in her face landing into someone's chest, "You, seriously, are a pain." Before he released her, she seized this opportunity and grip on his clothes, "Who is it? I won't let go until you speak. I can't stop thinking about you and ended up in trouble because of you," she looked up at him with determination. "Are you blaming me now?" Zhi Chen scoffed, "Should have watched you fall instead."

"Stop dodging my questions and answer them," her temper rose. After seeing her so hype up on what's bothering him made him grin. "Why are you laughing right now?"
