Chapter 398: A Shy One
As soon as Rui confirmed that Xander safely arrived at country V, Rui looked at his wristwatch and quickly wrapped up all his pending works.
He called Cali and told her he would pick her up on a date to compensate with the one they cancelled before since they went directly to Xander because of the urgent call he got from him. Turns out Xander endorsed a lot of works for him before leaving for country V the next day.
He no longer went out from his car since Cali’s grandfather was not at home. Instead, he asked Cali to go out directly because he did not want to get annoyed seeing Kane’s annoying gestures.
Cali smiled and quickly went inside Rui’s car. This date was considered being their first date, and she was too excited.
Rui brought her to an exclusive cinema, Cali was too happy that she could not even focus on the movie because she was too distracted by Rui’s closeness.
Rui on the other hand was thinking whether he would extend his arm on Cali’s shoulders or not. He already did that before for showing off and irritating Kane, but at that moment, he felt so timid.
"Are you alright?" he heard Cali ask. She probably noticed that he was moving restlessly now and then on his seat. "Uhm yeah. I’m good." Rui answered.
Cali pulled up the armrest between them and offered Rui some popcorn. "Do you want to eat?" he heard Cali offered. Rui nodded but did not pick up some popcorn.
He saw Cali raise her arm with the popcorn while she said, "here."
Rui unconsciously opened his mouth and received it. Cali was being giddy while she fed Rui the popcorn. It felt so good that he was reciprocating her actions.
Rui did not like popcorns but because Cali was feeding it to him he suddenly felt like he could finish them all. ’Since when did popcorn start tasting so good?’ he mused because he did not like very salty food and Cali asked for that cheesy flavor.
