Amid their childish banter, the two of them arrived at a building. To put it strictly, it looked more like a school.

Xu Tang drove to the underground parking lot of the most outstanding building. All this while, Lu Meili was in awe. " Y X Dance Academy? How beautiful."

Xu Tang got out of the car and helped her out like a gentleman. "We're here."

Lu Meili looked at the school buildings. YX... could that pseudonym mean... Yang Xu? So he really meant it when he vowed that he would own a dance school and name it after his parents. He had said it as a half joke when they were only little kids. How come he remembered this, yet forgot almost everything else about his childhood?

Had he really....

"Why are you in a daze? Let's go in."

Lu Meili followed his lead into the building. It looked enchating with its mainly blue theme.

Through a glass wall on her left, she saw three ballerinas dancing with all their gracefulness and charm in their white ballet outfits.

"How beautiful." She subconciously said.

"That's just an illusion. The real dancers are inside." He said and pushed a door open.

The ballerinas here were quite many. They were so engrossed in their dance that they were not distracted by their entrace. They still continued spinning and splitting gracefully. It looked much prettier than the illusion.

"Let's not distract them." He whispered. "If you want to learn ballet, I will bring you here again. However, this time you will only learn a little of everything. When you pass the audition, I will train you much harder."

"You are so confident in me? What would happen if I don't pass?"

Xu Tang led her to an empty classroom. "You are Lu Meili. As if there is anything you can't do." Who was he kidding? For this audition, it was almost a hundred percent sure that the only one who could be chosen was Lu Meili. Of course, the fact that many actresses would give up once they found out that she was also going to audition made it even more likely.

He put on a slow song, which just happened to be Lu Meili's favorite song for many years.

The girl blinked. "What made you choose this song?"

He took off his coat. "Is there a specific reason? I'll be honest with you; I don't remember having a specific reason to like it. I just find it quite nice to listen to.

Lu Meili smiled. You don't know because it was my favorite song and I played it so many times that you had no choice but like it.

"Come here." He beckoned at her.

"Better than I thought." She mumbled under her breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing!" She rushed over to him.

He took her small hand and put an arm around her waist. "Let's warm up a little."

"Mmh."

He could practically feel her heartbeat that was increasingly fast. "Don't worry about the walls. They're one way. No one can see us from the outside."

"Mmh." He cared that she might be scared? What a gentleman.

Though perhaps someone should have told this 'gentleman' that his words sounded too misleading.

"Follow my lead." He whispered in a warm breath into her ears.

Lu Meili's heart beat fast as she held onto his shoulders. Was this really part of training?

Actually, she didn't care. She just wanted to enjoy this moment with him.

Even when the music stopped, she continued holding his shoulder, following his every move.

"Oops! Sorry." She averted her gaze shyly. How could she step on him at such a moment?

What was worse, she lost her balance and fell onto his chest, pinning him against the wall in the process.

Xu Tang looked at the little woman who was trying to make herself invisible. Her pretty little face was flushed scarlet. A smile escaped his lips.

How come he hadn't realized before that this Lu Meili was... so cute? She was so cute that he wanted to pinch her cheeks.

He gave in to the urge to touch her face, his breath quickening inevitably. He brushed the hair away from her face, bringing it close to his own. Her eyes rarely blinked. That innocent gaze lured him in like a vortex, tempting him to take one more step.

However, his phone rang at this moment.

Lu Meili pulled away from him awkwardly.

She unconciously touched her face. If that stupid phone didn't ring, was Xu Tang going to... kiss her?

Did that mean he was starting to have feelings for her?

Xu Tang finished his phone call and stood in a daze. Earlier, what exactly was he doing?

Just a moment ago, his face was so close to hers that their lips were about to touch. If anyone caught them in that position, no one would believe that they were merely friends.

Something must have gone terribly wrong in his brain.

"Something came up at work?" She asked when she saw his expression. Few things could make him look that concerned.

"Meili, I'm sorry but I have to leave you on your own for a while. Something needs my immediate attention."

Lu Meili studied his expression. Why did it seem to have something to do with Annie Lan?

A woman's intuition would never be wrong. If it was about work, he would only be serious. Not this worried.

However, she didn't want to be the clingy woman who annoyingly sticks onto a man.

She flashed a smile. "Go ahead and do what you must. I'll play around for a while."

"Although you're smiling, why do you look sad?" He tousled her hair. She looked like an abandoned puppy. "I'll be back soon, okay?"
