Fifteen minutes later, they exit the shop . Adding to his newly bought clothes was a pair of shades and a baseball cap .
In the end, Mimi was unable to find anything that didn't further cause attraction to the G.o.dlike specimen .
Everything the man wore made him look like a sin!
As for herself, Mimi washed off her makeup, put up her short hair and purchased herself her own set of men's clothes . She wore a dark blue cardigan with a white b.u.t.ton-up s.h.i.+rt underneath and brown pants . On her face was a pair of large black-rimmed gla.s.ses, practically the size of her face .
"Where is she now?" Mimi twirled a stranded piece of hair away from her face .
Tobias glanced down at his phone, "She's at the food court . "
Suddenly, Mimi's steps slowed until they came to a halt . Noticing this, Tobias looked back at her in confusion .
"What is it?"
Mimi gaped as she tried recovering her wits . Finally, she spat out, "There's a food court?!"
Grasping the reason for her sudden shock, Tobias's usual poker face slipped and he said softly . "Mm . We can buy something on our way there . "
Her smile reached her eyes, turning them into crescents . "Yes, let's go!"
Heading to the food court, the two quickly spotted Senior Su sitting in a fast-food store . Mimi bought three burgers, a large set of fries and a chocolate milkshake, while Tobias purchased for himself one burger and onion rings .
Sitting down, Mimi tilted her head . "My, my, I never thought of her as someone who enjoyed fast food . "

While Mimi kept her eyes on the woman a few feet away from them, Tobias began unwrapping their food and setting it out . When he finished, he set down a burger in front of her .
"Eat . "
Directing her gaze away from Senior Su, Mimi looks down at her tray and notices the lone burger .
She frowned . "Where's the rest?"
Tobias took off his shades and rolled up his jacket sleeves . "When you finish that you can have the second one . "
"And the third?"
"You can have that after you finish the second one . "
Hearing his words, Mimi shot a fierce glare at him . However, not bothering to challenge his method of feeding her, Mimi frowned and took a bite of her first burger .

Upon the first bite, the previous dissatisfaction she felt melted away . She continued eating joyously while softly humming to herself .
Meanwhile, Tobias's attention was on the girl seated across from him, a faint smile on his face . When she finished her first burger, she looked at Tobias with eager eyes .
"Seconds please!"
Sighing, he hands her the second burger . Just as she was about to bite into it, a large hand stretched out and wiped her lips gently with a napkin .
"Eat slowly this time . Give the food time to digest . " Tobias spoke softly .
Shock filled her eyes from the gentle sensation on her lips, diminis.h.i.+ng her usual sarcastic wit and adding an extra trace of cuteness . She nodded her head slowly, humming a sound of agreement .
Treated so gently as if she were a child, Mimi slightly felt overwhelmed and a warm feeling spread through her chest .
This had all felt too familiar . She had wondered where she felt such a feeling when a sudden figure appeared in her mind .
That's right . . . her sister .
Whenever she ate crepes with her sister, she'd get powdered sugar on her mouth and Emily would wipe it off for her . It had been seven years since someone wiped food off her mouth .
After he finished cleaning the sauce on her face, as if nothing happened, Tobias went back to his food . Her eyes kept drifting up to sneak glances at him . His strong jaw flexed as he ate .
Chewing his burger, Tobias sensed the girl's stare on him and directed his handsome face toward her - those eyes of his revealing nothing .
"What?" He asked, licking the ketchup from the corner of his lips .
Mimi's eyes unconsciously followed his tongue's movements as it went back inside his now sealed lips before looking back at his face . Perceiving the emptiness in his eyes, she was at a loss .
Before she could stop herself, she asked, "Tobias, why are you so kind to me? In the end, we're still strangers to one another . "
Dark eyes stared at her . Setting his burger down, he reached for the napkin beside him and wiped his hands neatly . His movements seemed so slow to her as she waited for him to answer her question . Finally, he looked up at her .
"How are we considered strangers to one another?"
Mimi hadn't expected this sudden question from Tobias at all . Her purple eyes widened and her pink lips pursed in thought .
Before Mimi could answer, from the corner of her eyes, she spotted a figure walking toward Senior Su's table .
At that moment, her expression went dark, the light in her eyes faintly dimming until they appeared soulless . Her throat was unbearably dry, and she couldn't even speak .
It was him . He was here .
She hadn't imagined how she'd react to seeing him . If anything she had a.s.sumed she'd be indifferent . After all, as a child, she hated him .
However, witnessing his familiar face and the expressions on his face altering, she felt her entire body turn numb, her face turning pale as a sheet of paper .
Shen Jue was here .
"Mimi?"
Tobias quickly noticed Mimi's abnormal behavior . Watching those bright eyes of hers slowly dim as if she were a doll, his heart stirred . He turned to look in the direction she was staring at, and he immediately frowned .
Shen Jue? Wasn't he partnered with the Hiro Corp?
His frosty eyes swept over to Senior Su who smiled at the approaching man . He would need to look into this . But for now, his top priority mind was focused on the girl across from him .
"Mimi . "
She was silent . Her eyes continuing to stare at Shen Jue's as if she were in a trance, causing Tobias's heart to tighten even further .
Leisurely, Tobias extended his hand out and softly grabbed her clenched fists into his large ones . When he felt her cold hands, his eyes narrowed .
"Look at me . " He demanded softly .
Flinching at the sudden warmth on her hands, Mimi finally regained her senses . Her head s.h.i.+fted to look at Tobias, a glazed look veiling her eyes . His thumbs smoothed over her hands - his touch as gentle as a feather .
"Let's go back . "
Mimi nodded absentmindedly . Still grasping her hand, Tobias walked out with Mimi behind him . Before leaving, Tobias's cold eyes darted back toward Shen Jue and narrowed .
Having left the area, the two hadn't noticed the man sitting across the woman glancing up and smiling oddly .
"Shen Jue?" Senior Su glanced at the man curiously .
Reverting his attention to her, he said with a smile . "Forgive me . It's just I happened to see an old friend of mine . "
"Oh . Do want to invite them over here?"
Chuckling softly, he shakes his head, "That's alright . It would seem they've left already . "
Senior Su nodded her head and continued to eat her salad . Meanwhile, the smile at the edges of Shen Jue's mouth grew deeper, and his eyes darkened .
In a low, gentle whisper, he uttered the chilling words, "I'll see her again soon . "
