After Zhou Liwei prepared all the food, he placed them on the dining table with the help of his daughter.
"Where's mom?" She looked at her father.
"She won't be coming home tonight, she called earlier and said that she has a surgery to do." He sighed. Zhou Liwei would always suggest to his wife that she can stop working since he will be handling all their expenses but Jiang Yingyue was an independent woman, she didn't want to sit around and do nothing in the house that's why she never quits her job.
Zhou Yiren pouted as she sat down. "She will definitely cry if she learns that you prepared tonight's dinner and she wasn't able to have some."
"That's why, I didn't told her." He chuckled softly as he went and sat on his usual seat.
A wide grin appeared on Zhou Yiren's lips with what her father said. "I'm gonna tell mom!"
She took out her phone and took a picture of the food on the table before she sent it to Jiang Yingyue.
Since Jiang Yingyue was still in the middle of the surgery, Yiren wasn't able to get a reply from her.
"Lets eat." Zhou Liwei said. "We should leave some for your mom. I plan on visiting her after this."
"Yes sir~" She smiled. Although she sighed inwardly, she wanted to meet a man like her father. Her father was good in cooking, despite having a cold personality towards other people, her father was kind and gentle to her and her mom.
She didn't regret coming back in this world, the only thing she regrets is that she wasn't able to say proper goodbyes to the friends she gained in the game world, she regrets that she wasn't able to fix things with Luke... she wasn't able to protect him from the MC.
She sighed inwardly, she should stop thinking of these things since she cannot change what happened. Her love for Luke will always be in her, the pain of losing will be there, she can only face the future while holding on to those feelings for him and maybe one day, she can move on.

Monday came and it was finally the day where Zhou Yiren will finally meet her fiance. She wanted to look presentable that's why she wore a beautiful navy blue dress with black flower embroidery on it. Her long hair was curled into big waves and she even wore her contact lens instead of wearing her glasses.
She didn't looked as beautiful as Violet who was a living Snow White, though Zhou Yiren was still considered a beautiful person with an elegant and soft features. Since she wasn't staying up late ever since she woke up from her coma, there were no dark bags under her eyes, her pale skin was smooth and flawless, like a fine jade. She gained a little bit weight after days of eating of plentiful food. She would always have a hard time in gaining weight because of her fast body metabolism but at least this time, she was able to get back her original body figure. If Violet was the English Snow White then Zhou Yiren was the Chinese Snow White because of her snow white skin, black hair and red lips.
She was sure that the man her parents chose for her was someone with a good background and personality. She didn't want to bring shame to her beloved parents that's why she willing to be in her best behavior today.
She arrived at a five stars restaurant and went to the dining room that was reserved for her and her fiance.
The room was empty since she arrived thirty minutes early before the meeting time.
She sat on the chair and took out her phone and put on her earphones as she started watching the latest videos of her beloved girl group, Twice. She missed watching their videos and she was really happy to watch the new MV that was released while she was in a coma.
Zhou Yiren was so captivated with the videos that she didn't noticed a man entering the room. He sat on her opposite and watched herbright face as she was busy watching the videos.
He rested his chin on his palm as he stared at her lovely face, he didn't disturb her at all.
Feeling that someone was looking at her, she raised her head and gasped in surprise. "Papa!" She felt her heart jump out of her chest as the phone on her hand fell. By reflex, 'Papa' will always be the word she'll shout whenever she gets scared and surpised at the same time.
"Shit! Yun Shen don't surprise me like that! I almost thought that you're a ghost!" She exclaimed, giving him a glare before she picked up her phone and removed her earphones.
"I will surely be a one handsome ghost if I became one." He grinned, enjoying her cute reaction when she saw him, although he preferred being called 'Daddy' instead of 'Papa'.
She sighed and placed her phone on the table. "By the way, what are you doing here?" Zhou Yiren asked as she kept her phone in her bag. "You shouldn't be here, my fiance might arrive anytime now."
Across her, Yun Shen was sitting on his wheeled chair like a king on his throne. He was wearing a black suit and tie, and was looking so dashing on it. Yun Shen was amazed by how thick headed she was right now. "I believe, I arrived just on time."
Zhou Yiren furrowed her brows in confusion when he said that. What the hell did that supposed to mean?
Seeing her confused look made him sigh in defeat. "I'm your fiance, Yiren"
Her confused look instantly went surprised. "Y-You're my fiance?!"
"Uh-huh." Yun Shen turned to the waitress that was eyeing him since earlier. "Can we have the menu?"
"Y-Yes sir." The waitress blushed upon meeting his gaze. She quickly handed the menus to Yun Shen and Zhou Yiren.
She was there the whole time, listening to their conversation. She couldn't help but be intrigued by the two beautiful people in front of her. She couldn't believe that the well known 'King' of the business world was before her! He really looked more handsome than his own photos!
"Are you really my fiance?" She asked as she watched him scan through the menu.
"Lets continue this discussion later, for now lets order." He said calmly without taking a glance at her.
She pouted before she finally took the menu and looked at the list.
