Chapter 461: That one night (1)

*Flashback*

After the attack on Nana and Serena in the banquet by Tang Ning and Tang Feng, Shin didn't get a chance to introduce Huian as his girlfriend in front of Liang Xiao Dan and Liang Zou.

He had decided to tell them about her to let him off the hook to find a girlfriend finally, but the incident didn't let him. After that, Jinhai also stepped down from Liu Corps and was attacked by Moon Corps, so he thought of letting everything cool down before he would bring the subject again.

During that time, Huian and Shin frequently met together to know more about each other, not to expose their lie in front of them. They didn't want Liang Zou and Liang Xiao Dan to get suspicious of their relationship, so they used to meet up together and plan their conversations.

Even if it was all for the sake of their fake relationship, the process and meetings that happened during that time allowed them to bond with each other for real.

They slowly became friends, and the first ones that already knew about each other's past.

With their past already known, they grew more comfortable with each other and slowly came a time when they sometimes didn't meet for any fake relationship planning, but just to spend some time with each other as good friends.

One such time was when Huian visited Shin in the hospital. A day before, Shin had texted her about a good movie in the theatre and asked if she would come with him.

Huian had recently started out working in the Xiang Corps to help out Xiang Wei in work. As the heiress, she realized that it was time to step up and take some responsibility of her family business.

Apart from some meetings scheduled in the morning and afternoon, she was free in the evening, so she agreed to go with him.

After Shin attended his last patient for the day, he came outside to see Huian waiting for him and was surprised.

"You didn't have to come here. I was about to head to Xiang Corps to pick you up."

Huian smiled. "It's fine. I was free anyway, so thought to come here."

Shin chuckled. "Alright. Let's go."

When they reached the cinema, Huian realized that it was a horror movie and suddenly, she didn't feel like watching this movie anymore.

"You chose a horror movie?" Huian asked, her brows twitching continuously.

Shin held in his chuckle and showed an unconcerned expression. "Why? Is there any problem?"

Huian didn't want to show that she was a scaredy-cat, so she just awkwardly smiled it off.

"Of course not. It's just a horror movie. The scare doesn't even work on me anymore," she waved her hand.

Shin raised his brow. "That's awesome. Thank God you like horror movies. This one is quite a hit with all the creepy stuff and sound and I wanted to watch it for a long time. The ghosts in the movie are actually quite realistic. Glad that we will enjoy it a lot!"

Huian cleared her throat. "Y-yeah"

"Let's go! I have booked the best seats for us!"

Two hours later.

Huian stepped out of the cinema, all pale and as white as a sheet. She didn't look any better than a ghost itself. Her legs were still shivering from the fright.

Shin laughed and thoroughly enjoyed seeing her frightened condition. "Just look at yourselfhahayouwhy didn't you tell me that you didn't want to watch it?"

Huian stomped her foot hard. "You knew! You knew I was afraid, yet youyou are horrible!"

Shin wasn't able to control his laughter. "I-it's not my fault. Who told you to act all strong and mighty? You could have just told me, and we would have watched a different movie."

He looked at her and burst into laughter again. "But seriously, Huian, your face in the theatre waspriceless. I even clicked your frozen photo. Hahaha! You must have jumped in your seat at least a thousand times. Look at my hand. You gripped it so hard that it has turned all wrinkly now."

Shin pitifully dangled his hand.

Huian gritted her teeth. "How dare you laugh at me? It was a scary movie!"

"Because it's horror, Huian," Shin chuckled, "It is supposed to be scary."

"Hmph! I will not talk to you anymore! You just wanted to bully me today! And delete that photo!"

Shin shook his head. "Nope. That is the best photo I have clicked until now. I will even keep it as my phone's wallpaper. That will be my entertainment whenever I unlock my phonehaha. Your stiff face."

Huian got even more furious and tried to snatch the phone away from him, but he was too tall for her to reach. In the end, she gave up, huffing breathlessly.

"I will take my revenge one day!" she declared.

Shin grinned. "Sure. I will be waiting. Now, let's head back home. It's gotten quite late."

"Hmph! Don't talk to me."

Shin could only sigh.

This will take a while for her to forgive me, isn't it? Ah, but it was so fun

The rest of the way, Huian really didn't talk to him in the car.

"Hey, come on. I am sorry. I promise I won't do it the next timeat least I think I won't," he murmured the last part.

"I heard that, Shin! You are not sorry at all. Do you know I will not be able to sleep at night now! Every time, I would think that a g-ghost is behind me," she shuddered and felt chilly.

"It is not real."

"Tell that to my mind!" she fiercely glared at him.

He rolled his eyes.

"Okay. Let's go to a bar and chill out. Not for long. Just for you to relax, and then we will head back. What's say? The music and atmosphere will help you get out of that ghooooost scare."

Huian thought about it. "The bill is on you. Your compensation for bullying me though it is too less, and I am not letting this go just with a bill."

Shin sighed. "Women are so difficult."

"Shut up."

Around twenty minutes later, they reached a famous and posh hotel and bar. As soon as they stepped inside, the loud music blasted in their ears.

Huian already felt the scare fly out of her body with such loud music, but it was quite a nice atmosphere, as Shin said.

They ordered some drinks and snacks and enjoyed the music while watching the people dance on the dance floor.

Shin offered his hand. "Let's go and dance too!"

He spoke in a loud voice due to the loud music

Huian chuckled. "Okay."

They went on the dance floor and got immersed in the crowd with their own moves and steps. The place was filled with laughter and chores and cheers, and they let themselves loose on the floor as they forgot everything.

In all that heated rush, a man bumped into Huian and accidentally spilled his drink on her dress.

"Hey, I am sorry."

Shin narrowed his eyes, and coldly said, "Why are you drinking and dancing at the same time? You ruined her dress."

He pulled her towards him.

The man gulped with Shin's threatening glare and immediately apologized.

"Sorry, dude. You are right. Miss, I am so sorry about your dress."

Huian nodded. "It's okay."

Shin pulled her towards the counter and asked the bartender, "Is there any room available? My friend's dress is ruined."

The bartender nodded. "Yes, sir. We have an empty room on the third floor. You can use it."

He nodded. "Do you have a change of clothes for her? I will pay."

"No, Shin, let it be. I will pay it myself," she quickly said.

"It's okay, Huian."

The bartender said, "This is the room key. One of the waitresses will bring the dress for Miss."

"Thank you."

They headed towards the elevator and opened the room.

Shin said, "There is some wine spilled on your arm too. Wash it until the waitress comes. I will wait here."

Huian went into the washroom while Shin waited outside. Two minutes later, the waitress came with the dress too.

He thanked her, and she left.

"Huian," he called her, "I am leaving the dress on the bed. I will wait outside."

"Okay. I will- ahouch!"

Shin immediately rushed towards the door. He fervently knocked on it in panic. "Huian, what happened? Are you alright?"

"Ahow..." She mumbled in pain. "Shinit is too slippery here. I slipped. My feet hurts."

"Can you open the door somehow? Just take your time."

Huian slowly got up on her feet and dragged herself to unlock the door.

Shin immediately bent and checked her foot.

"Ow ow! It hurts there."

He sighed. "It's a minor sprain. Don't worry. It will be fine in a few days. I will give one sprain spray and pain meds."

"En."

Shin got up and suddenly picked her up in his arms.

Huian widened her eyes. "Sh-Shin what"

"You should rest for some time. Until then, I will arrange for the medicines. It will be painful to walk now."

Shin's handsome face with that clean-cut jaw felt super close to her, and she couldn't help but blush.

Shin walked towards the bed and gently placed her on it.

"Rest. I will bring the medicines." 

"Okay."

Shin switched off the lights and went off.
