Chapter Twenty-Three:
Zhen Zhen woke up and fell off the bed.
She thought last night was a dream. But the shiny gold card meant Yue Gu Zai did stand in the rain last night, and slept on the bed together with her.
San Mac rang Zhen Zhen. He used the excuse of their graduate class reunion to meet up with Zhen Zhen.
Zhen Zhen was known as the beautiful prodigy in college. Most of her female classmates were jealous of her, and made her an outcast. While she was too preoccupied with practical research assignments to notice her male classmates had crushes on her, especially San Mac.
Zhen Zhen roped Nan Ma to come to the class reunion for moral support.
Chapter Twenty-Four Summary:
Zhen Zhen's former female classmates made snide remarks to put Zhen Zhen down. Zhen Zhen cried in the toilet until Nan Ma arrived at the restaurant.
Zhen Zhen re-joined the dinner table. San Mac knelt in front of Zhen Zhen, held a bouquet of roses and he made a public love confession to Zhen Zhen.
'But... I... you... I have a son,' Zhen Zhen mumbled.
The bitchy classmates called Zhen Zhen a liar.
'How many years have you been using the same excuse to reject big brother San Mac?' one of the bitches asked. 'Your 'son' should be 5 or 6 now. Why haven't any of us met your son before?'
San Mac pressured Zhen Zhen to accept his love confession.
'Zhen Zhen, will you be my girlfriend?' San Mac asked.
'Hurry up and say you'll be big brother's girlfriend,' a bitch said.
Suddenly Cheng Yi showed up at the restaurant.
'What a lively get together,' Cheng Yi said sarcastically. 'Am I intruding?'
Zhen Zhen was scared shitless. If Cheng Yi showed up, it meant Yue Gu Zai wasn't far from the restaurant.
'Why are you here?' Zhen Zhen asked Cheng Yi.
'Boss asked me to prepare gifts for Miss Zhen Zhen's college friends,' Cheng Yi said.
Cheng Yi passed around expensive gifts, stood and pretended to leave.
'Oh, I forgot,' Cheng Yi lied. 'Boss wants me to tell Miss Zhen Zhen, he hopes you'll have a good time.'
Zhen Zhen was beyond scared.
'Cheng Yi...' Zhen Zhen pleaded Cheng Yi.
'Miss Zhen Zhen, do you have a request?' Cheng Yi taunted.
'Wait for me outside,' Zhen Zhen said.
'OK,' Cheng Yi said.
After Cheng Yi left, everyone at the dinner table was silent.
'San Mac, let's talk outside,' Zhen Zhen whispered, but everyone heard.
Outside Zhen Zhen and San Mac stood in a quiet spot.
'Do you really have a son?' San Mac asked Zhen Zhen.
'Um, I took a year off during college to give birth to my son,' Zhen Zhen said.
'That year, professor said you were studying overseas,' San Mac said.
'San Mac... I...' Zhen Zhen mumbled.
'Are we still friends?' San Mac asked dejectedly.
'Um,' Zhen Zhen said and relieved San Mac stopped pressuring her.
'You should go,' San Mac said. He pointed at Cheng Yi. 'He's been waiting for you a long time.'
'What about you?' Zhen Zhen asked.
Zhen Zhen could only look apologetically at San Mac, and leave with Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi escorted Zhen Zhen to a secret adjoining building to the restaurant.
'Miss Zhen Zhen, you should be worrying about yourself,' Cheng Yi said.
'What is there for me to worry about?' Zhen Zhen asked.
'Boss saw everything that happened inside the restaurant from the security camera,' Cheng Yi said.
'Everything?' Zhen Zhen asked.
'Um, everything,' Cheng Yi said. 'Including another man kneeling in front of you and offering you a bouquet of roses.'
'Cheng Yi...' Zhen Zhen pleaded.
'Yes?' Cheng Yi asked.
'You can stop taunting me,' Zhen Zhen said.
'OK, you're right,' Cheng Yi confessed. 'I'll stop.'
Inside the secret building, Yue Gu Zai was glaring at a big security screen. Bai Yu Tian and Huyen Di were standing behind Yue Gu Zai and giving Zhen Zhen pity looks.
Zhen Zhen looked nervously at the screen. She was surprised to see live footage of Chu Gian standing in front of a rival gang surrounded at gun point.
'The weapons are in Las Vegas,' Mr Jin said. 'If you want more news, it'll cost you 50 million.'
'It depends if Mr Jin's news is worth that much,' Chu Gian said.
After a failed negotiation, Zhen Zhen chased after an angry Yue Gu Zai. She didn't walk fast enough. So he wrapped an arm around her waist and escorted her to the car.
Everyone at the restaurant was looking out the window, and they saw the way Yu Gu Zai was protective of Zhen Zhen until they disappeared in the car.
