When Louis walked out, I was on his left side. I asked him, "How are you, Louis?", and he said, "What?". Then I spoke slowly to him, "Sorry, I can't speak Chinese. I only can speak English to you." He nobbed and said "Okay". Then fans came to him, gave him presents, and took some pictures w/ him. Em gave him the flowers. I asked him, "May I take a picture w/ you?" He said, "Yes".
The reason I told Fanny ealier that Louis could speak English because when I asked him in English, he could answer me eventhough it was simply only Yes, No or a nob. I don't remember what did I say to him. "little barrel" was standing next to me w/ Louis. She would translate immediately if Louis didn't understand. But it turned out that Louis could answer all my questions. I didn't ask him anything about movie, or Jessica, etc. It was just a regular conversation like, "Are you okay? Are you tired? We are so happy to see you in person. And we're looking forward to see you at the concert, etc." He has a very sweet smile and said Yes, Thank you.
Then the lady, who picked up Louis, led him to the van. He's crossing the street, and no one followed him. I yelled out at "little barrel" about the necklace, and run after him. "little barrel" talked to him in Chinese. Then he went to the van. He wanted to pick up one of our presents from the bag that the lady put on the ground. I took out the little bear to him, and said "Here you go, Louis." Then he said, "Thank you."

About Jessica...hhahahaha....
The lady who picked up Jessica said, "There she is" when Jessica came out. I didn't see her. She was in the middle of 2 ladies and a guy who blocked her in front so I couldn't see. Moreover, none of us has seen Jessica in person before. I heard "little barrel" yelled, "Vicky, the banner.." All I did was running to the front, and Jessica's cart hit my right leg (just little). I was so naughty that I pretended "Oh...Jessica, you hit my leg". Then Jessica and the lady both asked me, "Are you okay?" Then I was laughing and said, "Hah, I was only playing w/ you. It's nothing. I'm okay"
Everyone moved to the left of the gate. I was very happy and nervous. I stood in front of Jessica, and said, "Sorry Jessica, I can't speak English." Hahahahahahahhah...Jessica and everyone were laughing (including me). Then I correct myself, "Sorry Jessica, I'm so nervous now. I don't know what I'm saying. I can't speak Chinese. So I can only communicate w/ you in English". Of course, Jessica said "Okay." The rest of our conversation was all in English. She has a very cute British accent. I love it.
We started giving her the presents. EM gave her the flowers when she came out of the gate. Then we asked her the autographs. We didn't want to bother her much, so each of us asked for 2 autographs, or 3 was the most. When I asked her to sign for me, she returned the picture and I said, "Wow, you spelled my name correctly." She said, "It's easy." And I tried to explain to her, "In US, whenever I tell people my name, they always ask me, is it V-I-C-K-I-E. No one has ever write my name as V-I-C-K-Y." She gave me a little cute smile.
We chatted happily. And I don't remember what we were saying. I played w/ Jessica again. I said, "Jessica, I'm so happy, and I'm going to faint now." Then I was pretending to fall on the ground. She smiled and said, "No, you are not going to."
The lady who picked Jessica up came and talked to me in Chinese..blah...blah...blah... After she finished, I said, "As you know earlier, I don't understand Chinese". Then everyone was laughing again....so funny. She covered her mouth and said, "Oops, I forgot. What I want to say is do you want to take the group picture?" As we had an agreement before, she only allowed one, so I gave her my digital camera to take a picture w/ Jessica, all of us and the banner.
I gave a necklace to her. It's exactly the same one that "little barrel" gave to Louis except the color of the dog's ears. Jessica name was written on one side of the small rice, and a heart on other side. Louis name was also the same. Then 2 rice were put into a small clear tube w/ a dog shape on the bottom, and there was liquid inside that could enlarge the letters (you can find this at any malls in US. The store is called "Mr. Rice" or "Magic Rice"). I explained to her that the necklace was hand-made w/ her name on one and Louis's name on other. Then she screamed out loud, "Lou..is?" hahahhahahaha..."little barrel" said Louis also had one. Then *Trannie has told you guys the rest*.
We were talking about the concert, and looking forward to see it. Before Jessica walked out w/ that lady who picked her up. Jessica said to us, "See you tomorrow at the concert". I corrected her, "No, we'll see you the day after tomorrow, Sunday. we see you at 2 am show." Then Jessica said, "Yeah".

That's all I can remember. Em, tintin, little barrel, or Brenda please continue. I know you guys talked w/ Louis when he asked you guys about his mom, etc. And add Jessica's part too....

About the details of the concert, please give me some time. I have to listen to it and try my best to translate
