Nindy (Hijabers Norak Conqueror of the Heart)

15. Press Conference

As Yang Pou Han said, there were already many media crews waiting in front of the entrance of "The Miracle Ocean Garden". Somehow the news could be so quickly spread that they all flocked to cover in the area of the tourist spot.

The man looked ordinary, flat expression with a face that showed firmness. Unlike Nindy, she does often face and talk in front of the camera, but the recording is herself or sometimes ask for help from friends, not the media crew as it is today.

Sweat was pouring, hands were shaking. He simply lowered his head and let Yang Pou Han do the talking.

"It's true what you heard. We really live together. Because soon, we're getting married. Is there a problem with that?"

Nindy's getting deep. Unable to face the camera continuously. His confidence level instantly faded when faced with dozens of media crews with blitz cameras that repeatedly captured his image.

"Is he an employee here? How do you know each other? Miss, you're very lucky. We're very curious about your romance."

The more nervous Nindy heard the spate of reporters' questions, the deeper she lowered her face.

"For that matter, let only us know. I think that's enough for an explanation."

"Sir, is Miss Nindy not forced to marry you? Look, he's not smiling at all, and you look very far away. Is this just some sort of setting to raise the prestige of "The Miracle Ocean Garden'?"

Yang Pou Han looked furious at that question. Highlight his eyes sharpen. Shamelessly the man wrapped his arm around Nindy's shoulder and pulled her until the girl stood close to him.

Instantly the girl glared at Yang Pou Han, "Don't touch me, Yang! I'll hit you later." Nindy whispered full of threats.

Yang Pou Han simply smiled in response. "Get your head up, smile at them. Otherwise, I'll kiss you in front of everyone."

"You! Basic perverted brain!"

"Do it! I'm not messing with my words. Smile at them or kiss in public!"

Nindy gulped. That guy is really crazy. He held his head up, making his best smile in front of everyone.

"He's just embarrassed. Right, Honey?"

Nindy simply nodded while maintaining her smile. The man lowered his hand which was originally on Nindy's shoulder to change position to waist.

Nindy turned her head, glancing towards the man. However, Yang Pou Han's next words only made him even more upset. "Don't glare! You're gonna look ugly."

"If you overdo it, I'll strangle you later!" threatening Nindy who could only be heard by Yang Pou Han.

"Save your useless threats. And keep smiling."

Question after question was answered by Yang Pou Han well. Nindy had already submitted all the answers to the man. His job was to just smile and nod, nothing else.

And then all the drama ended. Yang took Nindy to immediately get out of the crowd of reporters. Along with a few bodyguards that split the crowd to give way to his master.

"Couple your things. We're going home now!" yang Pou Han's orders after releasing his hand checks to Nindy.

Nindy nodded obediently. A little ran him towards the area where he worked. Until he accidentally collided shoulder with someone.

"Zang Nan?" nindy said as she looked at whose shoulder she had hit.

The man seemed to be smiling cynically towards Nindy. The look he showed changed to the girl. "So the part-time job you're referring to is being Yang Pou Han's mistress? It's only fitting that you always refuse my invitation, because it turns out you've got a bigger catch. I misjudged you, Nindy." The man passed after saying it, leaving Nindy who was seen still trying to digest the man's words.

Nindy's eyes looked dewy, aware of the implied meaning of the words spoken by a Zang Nan. "I'm not a whimper, I'm a good woman. Don't insult me like that" he said, which can only be said in his heart because the man had disappeared from view.

*********

"Why are you so long?" Yang Pou Han turned his attention from the device to Nindy when the girl had already gotten into the car.

The girl looked even more silent than before, so Yang Pou Han felt a little strange. "What's going on? You crying?"

Nindy shook her head, turning her head towards Yang Pou Han. "I'm not your mistress, am I?"

He chuckled for a moment. "I'll pick a woman to be my mistress."

"What's? So you're saying I didn't get into the criteria, am I?" asked Nindy with an annoyed face.

"Do you want to be my mistress?"

He snorted later. "Of course not. I don't want to be called a mistress."

"good. Now don't put on that scary face of yours. You're getting unsightly" said Yang while rubbing Nindy's head wrapped in a veil.

Nindy glared, hearing the spooky mention addressed to her face. However, Yang Pou Han did not respond at all to Nindy's expression.

The man chose to drive forward his car, leaving the area of "The Miracle Ocean Garden".

************

"Well, can I borrow your money?" There was doubt on Nindy's face when she said that.

They were passing through the Kowloon district area where many street vendors were peddling their food. It seemed tempting to Nindy who was used to enjoying such folk food.

"I'll replace it if I have the money" Nindy added later.

The man slowed down the speed of his vehicle, moving aside. He picked up something in his suit pocket, then took out a blank check to Nindy complete with his ballpoint once.

"Write how much do you want?" Yang Pou Han felt Nindy seemed to have started to take advantage of their closeness. Yeah, maybe the girl started to take off the mask and show her real face.

Yang Pou Han seemed to cluck. Staring resentfully at the hijab girl. "Whatdoyouwant? Of course I don't bring a lot of cash."

"Why are you yelling? I just want to borrow money." Nindy lowered her face. She dislikes being yelled at the most, especially by a man who will after this be her husband.

The man sighed later, trying to be a little patient. Has he gone too far?

"How much do you want? I'll have Lie's assistant give it to you."

The girl shook her head in a doldrums. His face looked sad and disappointed. "No need, I need it now. Not tomorrow or later."

The net just keep staring forward, where many street vendors have lined up on the right and left of the road that is specifically used to sell.

"You're so stubborn." The man reached into the wallet he had placed in his pants pocket. Opening the contents are still tucked two pieces of money thousands of Hong Kong dollars and several sheets of hundreds of dollars.

"How much do you need?"

Nindy turned her head to hear Yang Pou Han question her, staring at the money that was in the man's wallet. Without realizing it a smile rose on his lips. "Can I take it myself?"

Who seemed surprised to hear Nindy's request, but finally handed the wallet to the woman.

"Thank you" Nindy said, taking two hundred dollars and handing the wallet back to Yang Pou Han.

"Wait a minute! I'll be right back." The girl came out then, closing the car door quickly.

He saw her running towards the food vendor beside the road. Starting to choose the food purchased, Nindy looks smiling and several times talking to the food seller.

That smile was contagious to Yang Pou Han. The man thought Nindy wanted to ask him for a lot of money for other reasons, but instead he just wanted to buy the food sold at the place. The little man felt sinful to Nindy, because he never gave the girl a salary while working with her.

Without him noticing, Nindy was already by his side carrying some food in hand. "Hi, are you daydreaming? You must be hungry, right? I've bought you food too."

The man frowned, staring at the food mentioned by Nindy. "I don't eat street food. Just eat it yourself, me .. hmmm." Uncompleted Yang Pou Han said his words, Nindy stuffed the food into the man's mouth. "Enak, right?" he said as he smiled at Yang Pou Han.

*******

"You said you didn't like it, you spent it all." Nindy snorted angrily as she just returned from buying drinks instead.

They sit in one of the rest areas located near the district area.

"I'm hungry. Who told you to buy a little."

"You're so mean. I'm hungry too." Nindy's face looked lethargic when she saw the food she bought in the toilet.

Yang Pou Han let out a long sigh. Just because the girl's food can be that sad?

He stood up from his seat, pulling Nindy's hand until the girl stood up. "Follow me!"

There are a lot of food sold here. For street food lovers, being in this area is a paradise for them. Nindy sat in one of the not-so-busy shops, with Yang Pou Han ordering food for her.

Nindy smiled as her netizens observed how the man ordered food while waiting for the seller to serve. Yeah, she looks cute rather than angry.

He quietly waited, until Yang Pou Han came with a tray containing a curry fish ball and two bowls of cart woodle with a beef topping on it. That delicious, appetizing aroma made Nindy's saliva almost drip. Water vapor that is still billowing on it is blown by the wind to make the aroma spread everywhere.

"Thank you" said Nindy, moving the bowl of flat noodles in front of her.

He held up his palms, praying for a while before enjoying a special meal that he had not enjoyed for a long time.

Without waiting to be invited, Nindy had already stuffed the noodles into her mouth. Enjoy it without looking around. Until when the flat noodles berkuah was only half, Nindy only realized that Yang Pou Han did not eat. The man just propped up his chin without touching the food in the slightest.

"Why don't you eat?"

He raised next to his eyebrows, while still propping up his chin. "You sure enough is just one bowl of noodles?"

Nindy grimaced later. His appetite was indeed great, moreover he had not eaten all of this for a long time. However, he was still sane by not eating the rations of others.

"Do you feel guilty for having finished my meal before? Never mind, I'm not a vengeful."

He chuckled, hearing the words that were thrown from Nindy's lips. "I just don't want to fight over food with a woman. Eat it, consider it a gift before the wedding."

The girl looked frowned. How two bowls of noodles can be used as a wedding gift. Yang Pou Han was really stingy.

"Since when was a bowl of noodles called a wedding gift?" tanyanya Nindy who looks upset.

"Since this moment. Since I said it." Shamelessly the man answered.

Nindy rolled her eyeballs, then went back to enjoying the noodles until the toilet. His eyes caught Yang Pou Han who was staring at him without blinking. He stopped his eating, rubbing his lips with the tissue available on the table.

"Don't look at me like that. Aren't you afraid of falling in love with me?"

Nindy's question made the man laugh. "Cannot be. You don't think I'm gonna fall in love with a weird girl like you, do you?"

"Heemm, I'm just warning you, yeah. Cause the truth is, I have a million hidden charms." Nindy said as she closed her lips with her hands as if she was whispering.

Who chuckled later. "Well, a million charm girl. Now eat, then go home!" he said while shaking his head.
