Love Contract

Chapter 368 Extra Story My Girlfriend (Part One)

Victor stayed with the cast and crew of "Legend of Empress Dogu" for several days, pestering Ena without second thoughts. It wasn't long before the whole filming site could tell they were in a relationship.

Ena was bothered by looks she felt cast at her. Why did it feel like everyone was looking at her so strangely?

"When are you leaving?" She asked Victor, clenching her jaw.

"I'm not sure. It depends," he replied, looking around idly with his hands in his pockets. He seemed calm and unfazed.

"All right, then stay here. I'm going shopping this afternoon," she said smiling.

"Shopping? With whom? Where are you going? When will you be back?" Victor turned around quickly at her revelation, staring at her intensely.

"Just with a few actors and actresses in the cast!" Ena pouted and said softly, "It's hard to say when we'll be back."

"What are you going to buy?"

"Well..." Ena started. She then rolled her eyes and said, 'Til probably just look around. Perhaps only do a little window shopping."

Victor clearly did not believe her, but he said nothing of it.

After lunch, Ena got into her street clothes. She wore a peaked cap, sunglasses and a mask; she was fully decked out as a star would be in public. She stepped out of the van and the first thing she

saw was Victor. He saw her coming out and walked up to her nonchalantly and took her hand. "Let's go."

"Where are we going?" Ena asked, removing her mask.

"Shopping!"

"Shopping? Are you kidding me? Just you and me? The two of us alone?" Ena asked with surprise, unconsciously raising her voice.

"Yes.”

"But... I..." Ena struggled for words and tried pulling her hand free of Victor's grip. "I made plans with them. Let's go together another day!'

"Unfortunately, those you invited are unable to go shopping with you this afternoon."

"Really?" Ena said incredulous. She stood for a moment with her mouth wide open before continuing, "Then I won't go either!”

Victor stopped and turned to look her right in her eyes. "Don't you want to go with me?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Ena blinked rapidly, not knowing what to say. "Yes... No. It's just that I'm afraid of the paparazzi! We'd better not go."

"But I want to go shopping with you." He stepped towards her, so close he was almost pressed up against her.

'Tm so tired. You know, it's okay if we don't go shopping today. Maybe some other time." Ena squeezed his arm and acted like a spoiled child that would only be happy if she got her way.

"Tired? Are you tired because of last night?" Victor leaned over her and whispered in her ear.

When he finished speaking, Ena turned a bright red and was getting so hot she felt as though smoke was about to billow out the top of her head. She lowered her head quickly and he forced her into the car.

"Where are we off to first?" Ena murmured from the passenger seat.

"I think we should have lunch first," Victor said as he drove. "I know a very special restaurant," he continued.

"Okay," Ena smiled sweetly. She had no objections.

"You haven't told me what you're planning on buying today," Victor asked, turning his head to her when they'd stopped at the intersection.

"I told you I just want to look around. I'm probably not going to buy anything!" She bit her lips, thinking about Victor's birthday coming up in a few days. She was going to buy him a gift as a surprise, but she couldn't do it now with him here.

Victor raised his eyebrows curiously and said with indifference, "My birthday is in two days. I thought you would buy me some sort of secret surprise."

Her eyes widened in surprise when she heard this and asked, "How... How did you know? "

"Because I know you too well!" Victor said, a smile beaming off his face. "I want something special. Do you think you can do that for me?"

She nodded her head fast and obediently, she looked like a chicken pecking at rice. She then looked at Victor with admiration filling her eyes and said, "Okay, I'll give you anything you want."

"Good girl!" Victor replied, holding her in his arms and kissing her all over her face. He only let go reluctantly and started the car again after being urged by the countless horns blaring from the cars

behind them.

Ena stared at Victor's face from the side, her affection spilling out of her, and covered her slightly red lips and snickered to herself. The idol of countless girls was beside her, and his lips kissed only her. She was over the moon!

Victor kept driving and eventually noticed Ena's burning gaze from the corner of his eye. It made him happy as well. "Am I good looking?" he asked.

"Yes, very much so!" Ena nodded without hesitation.

"How handsome am I?" he asked playfully, a smile curling ever so slightly at the corners of his mouth.

"You are the most handsome man in the world, Victor!"

"How long would you like to stare at me like this?" His mouth was curling more and more as his grin began stretching.

"All my life! In fact, Victor, I think I could stare at you all my life and it still wouldn't be enough!"

He felt a warmth spreading through his heart when he heard these words. He reached out a hand, held Ena's tightly and said, "How about I let you look at me for the rest of your life then?"

"Okay!" She nodded wildly and squeezed his hand back.

"But my birthday gift has to be special."

"What do you want?"

"You will know when the time comes." As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped down hard on the accelerator and the car sped off the highway towards the urban area.

They stopped in front of a stylish restaurant in the city and Victor led Ena inside.

"Wait, wait!" Ena protested. She put on a mask and sunglasses in a hurry. She noticed that Victor wore only a peaked cap and said anxiously, "You'll be recognized like that. Why don't you wear sunglasses?" "Are you ashamed to be with me?” Victor jested, deliberately misunderstanding and teasing his little Ena.

"No! No! That's not what I meant!" Ena explained hastily, "It's just... I meant... Didn't you say that we should keep our relationship a secret for now?"

"Well I've had a sudden change of heart on that."

Victor was displeased and wanted to take back everything he had said before, seeing that Ena was getting more and more popular in the industry, and she had begun ignoring him more and more. 'I, Victor Qiao, will announce to the whole world that this silly woman named Ena belongs to me!' he thought to himself.

The restaurant was almost filled to capacity. Ena was still trying to figure out what he meant by what he had just said when they entered.

"Hello, Mister and Miss, welcome!" The greeter offered a sweet smile and asked, "Table for two?"

"Yes." Victor glanced around the restaurant and saw a table by the window. He pulled Ena with him as he made his way towards it.
