Unedited

The training went smoothly. Yu Qi helped the new club members especially Zhu Xiao Ling. She was only the girl in the club. After the training was finished, the two girls left the club together. Since they live in the same building, just on a different floor, they walked to their room together.

Remembering the two girls asking for her help, Zhu Xiao Ling turned to Yu Qi. Sensing something, Yu Qi also turned to Zhu Xiao Ling. 

"What is it?" Yu Qi somehow knew that Zhu Xiao Ling wanted to ask something to her.

"I just wondering what is your favorite food?" Zhu Xiao Ling blurted out the question.

Yu Qi smiled. "I thought you want to ask something difficult for me to answer it."

"Well, to think about it. I don't have specific food to name it. But I do have a sweet tooth." Yu Qi indeed had a particular fondness for the sweets. Half of Bing Tanghulu that she brought another day ended into her stomach.

"I see. I like sweets too. Especially hot chocolate." Zhu Xiao Ling said. "I can eat thousands of that. My mum even forbid me to eat sweets for a month." 

Yu Qi chuckled when heard Zhu Xiao Ling's story. He also could eat a lot of them. However, she felt a little bit bitter when the topic of mother mentioned. Her mother, yeah, she did not have a mother. That term felt foreign to her. 

"Sister Yu Qi, Sister Yu Qi." Zhu Xiao Ling called Yu Qi several times because she saw Yu Qi stopped walking. She could see the expression given by  Yu Qi. It was a cold yet sad expression. She wondered what was Yu Qi thinking that made her showed that expression.

"Sorry. Just think about something." Yu Qi started to walk again.

"I want to stop by the cafe. Want to buy some dinner. Do you want to join too?" Yu Qi said after a while of silence.

"Yeah. I'm a lazy person. I don't want to go outside after entering my room on the 5th floor." Zhu Xiao Ling agreed. She wanted to buy dinner right now so that she did not have to go up and down through the stairs many times.

After buying the dinner, they continued to walk to their room. Zhu Xiao Ling saw the amount of dinner that Yu Qi brought, was large. She remembered that Yu Qi told that she did not share her room with anyone. So, the amount of dinner definitely very large to Yu Qi alone. Maybe Yu Qi was a big eater.

"Sister Yu Qi, are you going to eat all of them alone?" Zhu Xiao Ling asked in careful tone afraid that Yu Qi might feel hurt with the question while pointing to the food packages brought by Yu Qi.

"No, I'm a light eater. Most of them are for my dog." Yu Qi said. 

"Huh? You have a dog, Sister Yu Qi?" Zhu Xiao Ling showed an excited expression when Yu Qi mentioned her having a dog.

"Yes. I have a dog. Siberian Husky breed."

This look, this expression reminded Yu Qi to someone. 'Where? Where did I saw this kind of expression before?' Yu Qi keeps thinking about that. Oh, she remembered that. It was Song Ha Ting. Song Ha Ting wore this expression when seeing Aoi.

"Sister Yu Qi?"

"Yes?"

"Can I go to see it now?" 

"I don't know whether he is my room or not."

"I see. Well, I will go and see it later."

"Okay."

....

I'm bored." So Pang Lim grumbled.

It was the weekend. They were currently at the library. So Pang Lim requested, they were discussing the group assignment for a certain subject. They already discussed the assignment for about two hours.

For this group assignment, they could choose their own group. A group must consist of five people. So, they formed a group. They were Mei Lilli, So Pang Lim, Song Ha Ting, Ding Na An, and Yu Qi. It was easy because they already knew each other.

It was fortunate that Mei Lilli made the move invited Yu Qi and Ding Na An because they were the best students in their year. Especially Yu Qi. The boys also wanted to invite her to join their own group. Mei Lilli was smiling in victory while facing the defeated face of the boys in the classroom.

"Then, let stop for now. We will continue it later." Mei Lilli said.

"I want a boyfriend." Suddenly a sentence came out from So Pang Lim's mouth.

"Huh?" The other four girls looked at So Pang Lim.

"What are you talking about, Pang Lim?" Mei Lilli asked.

"I just say that I want a boyfriend." So Pang Lim made another statement about having a boyfriend.

"Why?" 

"I see those girls who had a boyfriend looked very happy together with their boyfriend. I have to feel the same Doki Doki feeling too." So Pang Lim said. Then she turned to Yu Qi. "Look at Yu Qi. She looks very happy because she got a boyfriend."

Now the topic turned to Yu Qi. 

"Yu Qi, how long have you been with your sweetheart?" So Pang Lim asked with great interest.

The girls turned to wait for Yu Qi's answer. Even though they did not give many reactions but Yu Qi knew these girls were interested in her answer.

"To exactly, it is only three months." Yu Qi did not want to lie, so she told them the truth.

"Huh, three months? Wait. You mean you in the relationship with him, only three months?" So Pang Lim asked again because she wanted to confirm it again.

"Yes."

"It was before our semester break?" It was Mei Lilli's turn to confirm.

"Yes."

"Then before that, you are not in the relationship?" 

"Yes."

"Shocking news." The girls closed their mouths for a sign as shocked except for Ding Na An. She just was listening to Yu Qi's story in a calm look.

"I thought you already in the relationship for a long time." Mei Lilli said.

Yu Qi smiled. "We knew about two and a half years but I accepted him not long ago."

"Wow, a spicy love story." So Pang Lim was getting excited. "So, it means he was the one who started to like you first?"

"... Yes."

"How you know him?" Song Ha Ting asked with an excited smile.

"At the bank." Yu Qi began her story.

"And then?" Song Ha Ting interrupted.

"Hey, don't interrupt Yu Qi." So Pang Lim said.

"I met him at the bank for the first time. Then, there was a robbery occurred in the bank. He was one of the people that countered the robber."

"So, he saved you?" Mei Lilli smiled.

"Well, yeah." To think about it, Long Hui did save her back there. If it was not his fast reaction beat the robber that aimed his gun to her, she might get a shot from that robber. 

"Hero saves the damsel story and live happily ever after." So Pang Lim poeted.

"It is very romantic." Song Ha Ting added again.

The girls laughed. Yu Qi smiled.
