"I...Um..I," I stutter trying to give her a reply, my mind going crazy whether my words would sound rude or hurt her feelings.
"You don't have to answer now," she smiles gently looking at me her eyes lighting up "I get that we have known each other for a short time," she steps forward and pulls my right arm burring my palm into hers she gazes at me "I would like to know about you," she states her voice coming out as a whisper in excitement.
"You know..," pulling out my palm instantly from her I rub the back of my neck casually while her large eyes are glued on me waiting for me to speak "I actually...," my brain is still creating a sentence.
I sometimes really just hate myself for the way I react to some circumstances it really makes me look stupid.
"I actually have someone I ," the word 'like' plays in my mind when she keeps step next to me and grabs my arm, my eyes widens when I see Henyu,FengLei and Cheng Li walking towards us.

Eating the last dumpling of my third bowl I keep the chopsticks on the table standing up from my seat I lean forward with my palms rested on the table."I'm done," I announce turning to my right, mu eyes goes bigger watching HenYu and ChengLi still eating, a weak smile appears on my face when my eyes fall on the five bowls which are piled up next to the one which they are having now."Seriously, you both are eating the sixth bowl while I had three," Standing straight I cross my arms over my chest my eyes observing the two who are busy "Eating like pigs," I comment crunching up my nose.HenYu looks up at me his mouth stuffed with the dumpling that his cheeks have two bumps making him look like an otafuku okame doll "It's only our sixth bowl," he speaks with the food in his mouth his voice coming out as an old man.The corners of my lips twitches up slightly when I turn to the opposite side to find Feng Lei enjoying his meal and two bowls piled up.

"I didn't expect this from you ," Master Huang points at FengLei with his hand fan, his face raging in anger.Slamming his hands on the table he gets up from his seat and walks towards us who are kneeling down a little farther from the table, crossing his arms over his chest he walks to and fro in front of us making our eyeballs move in a slow oscillatory motion following his footsteps.Growling internally I curl up my toes rubbing the feet against each other trying to get rid of the numb feeling, moving my gaze from master I look down at the floor, my eyes falls out of it's sockets when a weary sigh leaves my lips without my realisation taking me off guard. I close my mouth in a flash my eyeball slides to the left to see HenYu and ChengLi looking at me the words Are-you-serious written on their face and then I turn to my right to see FengLei watching me wearing his rigid expression, I argue with my inner voice whether to look up or not but finally I did out of c

I sneak out of the room looking around with my drowsy eyes which didn't have enough sleep. It's been only a few a hours that we all came back to rest after writing in the library. Turning around I take another look at Feng Lei to check on him again as it's been only a few hours that we even returned and he is already is deep slumber.Hugging the wooden basin in which the towel and dress is placed in I stroll out cautiously to the bath place, making my way to the last one which is in corner I look around peeping over the side curtain making sure no one is there, confirming that I'm alone I undress myself removing each layer of the material one by one, the sound of water drops landing on the cemented floor echoes in the empty place when I pull the filled basin to a side. Lighting up the candle I place it closer to the wall a little farther from my bath area preventing the water splashing over it, to get some light as the moonlight cannot make it's way to the corner, takin

Placing my chin on the table I fix my eyes to the front my half opened eyes staring at an empty space. I'm the only one who is present in the class as I'm early and others are still freshening up after waking up.My lips forms to a pout when I think about what happened early in the morning, one way I think about the fact that Feng Lei found out my identity on the other hand I'm disturbed in the thought of how he saw me, I was almost naked. Letting out a loud sigh I close my eyes beginning to take a small nap.~Few hours ago~Fiddling my fingers I look up to my right passing him a glance who is glaring at me. My eyes expands when I see him still watching which makes me to lower my gaze again."What are you doing here?," he questions dryly and try my best not to be curious of his express as I dare not see him."I...,""I just don't understand," he turns facing in my direction " How can your father send you here knowing the consequences,"

Feng Lei's P.O.VCrossing my hands over my chest I lean behind watching the two of them argue. The dead line is around the corner and still we have not found out anything, the only information which we know is the place where the stolen things are hidden but the key is always around the neck of Gu Weiting who is the leader of the robber gang, many people has no idea it's him who is robbing continuously as he has a high image in the society. The only way to prove it's him is by getting the key of his house.I clear my throat waiting for them to stop their conversation as expected they stop nagging and turn towards me.Gu Weiting always visits the house of zexun every evening and stays overnight there enjoying with the maids. Our plan is to let one of us disguise as a woman and distract him in the room to get his key but this discussion is taking more than an hour.The votes were put to decide who is going to disguise, I got one vote from Wanke, HenYu

WanKe's P.O.VBrushing the strands of hair falling over my face I take a closer look at me in the mirror, my heart fluttering looking at my own reflection a wide smile making it's way on my lips. It's been ages seeing me dressed up as a girl and I've never seen myself like this. The feeling of disappointment gets into me when I try to figure out how I would have looked when I was in my teens and before.Taking another look of myself I hide the item which they gave me to use as breasts, folding the wooden screen I step out my lips twitching up slightly to a weak smile when I notice the three pair of eyes on me which is making me nervous, as I always tell being the centre of attention drives me nuts."Your figure looks," ChengLi keeps a step forward moving his gaze from top to bottom "Perfect, You look exactly like a woman," he blurts his eyes scrolling up and down making my mentality mock at their reaction of being clueless of who I am exactly.

Holding my breath I pull up his neck which is hung low, grunting low I stand straight rolling up my long sleeves, sighing wearily I try again to lift up his head.Gu Weiting is drunk as we had six pots of liquor which are too good and expensive, every time he moved forward with other intention I distracted him to drink and finally he is knocked down, taking his state as an advantage I began to look for the key but it's too difficult to find where it is due the thick layer of clothes he is wearing and I cannot find the hook of the chain.Kneeling down behind him I lift his neck, his head keeps on moving a little higher and it falls low again as a stubborn brat. Cursing and grumbling in my mind I try to lift up and finally I hold his head my palm searching for the key everywhere.Furrowing my eyebrows I pay attention to the noise which can be heard from outside, the sound of things breaking and people shouting seems like it's a fight, my eyes widens in

I gape at him studying his features his eyes moving from my head and goes downwards making me to gulp down my saliva, I bite my inner cheek when I feel my cheeks heat up a weird feeling erupting in my stomach.Is that butterflies fluttering?I have never felt this before but his intense gaze makes me feel weak.I have no idea of why I feel all these right now?Coming out of my thoughts I remove my arms from his neck which I held to keep balance from falling, my movement brings him back to reality, it shows clearly that he was taken off as he blinks and speaks out a 'huh' like a person who forgot what happened few moments ago. Removing my gaze from his eyes I look down my eyes widens in horror when I see the neck of my dress torn apart exposing my inner wear.Getting on my feet in a flash I clutch the material stepping away my eyes glued to the ground in embarrassment."Wow, a scene of a prince saving a princess," HenYu joke
