Chasing My Dream Lover - Chapter 175：Concert Date

“Are you ready ?” Yu Jin asks Xiao Ping that just came down the stair. Xiao Ping looks gorgeous as always, wearing a thin turtleneck topped with cute vest and jeans, her hair is tied in a high ponytail. Xiao Ping nods. After say goodbye to her parents, they are riding on Yu Jin’s motorcycle to the concert building. It is Sunday afternoon, but the road near the building are having traffic jam. Luckily they go early thus they are not worry they will be late for the concert.

When they finally arrive, the parking area is almost full. “His fan base is huge here,” Yu Jin says as taking off his helmet. Xiao Ping just nods. “Nervous ?” Yu Jin guesses her quietness. “A little,” Xiao Ping admits. It has been nine months since the last time she met Takeshi. Of course it is only her silly thought, the probability they may meet is extremely low. He might not even know that she is coming to the concert. Xiao Ping feels fingers are tugging between her fingers. “Let’s go,” Yu Jin invites her to walk to the building.

——

“Wow!!” Yu Jin shouts in admiration. The concert will only start an hour from now, yet the building is already totally packed up. It is lucky that they bought the first class tickets that provide chairs for the audiences so they can sit before the concert starts. Most audiences are girls wearing Takeshi Hasegawa T-Shirt and bringing his poster. They look so happy and enthusiastic. There are few guys, maybe accompanying their girlfriends … ehem, just like him. Well, Xiao Ping is not his girlfriend, though.. but you know.. Yu Jin blushes on his own thought.

“Are you comfortable ?” Xiao Ping asks him. “What ? Of course,” Yu Jin quickly replies, giving her a happy smile. “Are you sure ?” she asks again to make sure, “We can always go if you..”

“Hey.. I bought the tickets. Of course I’m eager to watch the concert,” Yu Jin cuts her. Xiao Ping giggles. “You don’t even memorizes any of his songs,” she makes fun of him. “Who did say that ?” Yu Jin asks with raising one eyebrow. He then takes out his cellular and opens his outbox text message. “I wrote all of the lyric of his songs. You only need to tell me what song he sing, then I can sing it with you,” he proudly brags his plan and shows his cheatsheet to Xiao Ping. Xiao Ping laughs heartily. “I will ask your supervisor to give you more tasks since you are obviously very idle there,” Xiao Ping teases him. “If you do that, I will not have time to date you later,” he teases her back then laughs together with her.

An hour later, the lights in the building suddenly off while the lighting on the stage starts to play in rythm with the drum beats. All of the audiences of first stage are running closer to the stage. “Come on. Hurry!” Xiao Ping grabs Yu Jin’s hand and pulls him to stand and running the same way as others.

To her surprise, Yu Jin really does sings along Takeshi’s songs through out the concert. When Takeshi sings his first single which is a romantic slow beat song, Yu Jin hugs her waist from behind then puts his head on his shoulder, humming the song to her ear. Xiao Ping turns to him, shamelessly shows her teary eyes and yet happy smile to him. Yu Jin wipes her tears with his thumbs then kisses her quickly on her nose.

“Are you happy tonight ?” Yu Jin asks with a loud voice to compete with wind breeze and the engine roar.They are on their way to Xiao Ping’s house after the concert ended. “Very,” Xiao Ping answers him. “Thank you so much,” she continues then hugs him tighter. “You’re most welcome,” Yu Jin replies. When he feels Xiao Ping puts her head on his nack, Yu Jin holds her grip on him to make sure she doesn’t fall.

It is raining heavily outside and the wind blows hard. It is almost pitch back whether it is outside or inside Xiao Ping’s house. Someone is non stop knocking the front door vigorously. “Xiao Ping, wake up!! Uncle!! Aunty!! Please wake!!” Yu Jin shouts with a loud voice while still knocking on the door. “Please, wake up now!! Xiao Ping!!!!” he exclaims. A light inside the house is turned on. “Uncle!! Aunty!!” Yu Jin is now banging the door.

“What.. What the.. ” Mr. Yuan is ready to mock whoever it is while opening the door. It is not even four in the morning.

“Uncle.. Uncle.. please wake everyone else,” Yu Jin tells Mr. Yuan devastatingly. “What happened?!” Mr. Yuan asks in confused. He wanted to bark at Yu Jin but once he saw Yu Jin’s worried face he became confused.

“I got info from military radio, a huge typhoon is heading to Taipei right now!!”
