' So he will be done by 6PM. It takes 15 minutes to come back home and it should take around 40-45 minutes to reach there. half hour to get changed. I can make a reservation for 8.30PM then. It will be the perfect timing, not too late nor too early.' Thinking about it Zhi Ruo booked the reservation for two people at 8.30PM.
The restaurant that she choose was one of the most newly opened fusion restaurants. Many people liked the food over there, it mainly specializes in koreo-italian fusion. Though it doesn't sound pleasing when heard, but the people who have visited had praised it alot. She really wanted to try it since long time but was unable to do so due to her anxiety regarding her job. Now that everything was settled she decided to surprise Qing Shan with the dinner.
At 6 PM, Zhi Ruo picked clothes for Qing Shan that will match with her floral miniskirt.
'Let's start getting ready, anyway he will take just fifteen minutes while I might need more than an hour.' Thinking Zhi Ruo started getting ready.
She had changed her clothes and was now trying to arrange her hairs into a messy bun. Zhi Ruo had always tried to keep up with the fashion trends. Not that she was too fashionable but some days when she was happy, the fashionista within her would be awakened like today.
After going through painfully arranging her hairs into a messy bun Zhi Ruo gave a quick look at the watch and thought, 'Secretary Han said he will be all done by 6 pm, its almost 6.45...Why is he not here yet? ........Is he busy?'
Fetching her cell phone, Zhi Ruo called secretary Han to figure out if Qing Shan was still in office.
"Secretary Han, this is Zhi Ruo, Is Qing Shan still in the company? Didn't you say his schedule was only till 6PM"
"Mrs. Qing, President Han has already left office at 6PM. Are you waiting for him. I can give him a call."
Listening that Qing Shan has already left at the expected time, Zhi Ruo frowned and answered before disconnecting the call,"No need, I will call him. Thankyou."
As Qing Shan left his office he decided to buy some flowers on his way for his wife to congratulate her on her official joining. The flower shop was located near to their office and was in the way of home. Deciding to stop by while going Qing Shan started driving.
Usually he will drive at a moderate speed and would give way to cars which would be behind him for a long time, making him figure out if someone was following him.
Today due to excitement, he drove a little fast and did not keep a track of the vehicles behind him as usual. In order to increase his happy mood he also played some melodious songs. Completely forgetting about his surroundings.
The floral shop was just three to five minutes away from the office. Stopping by he bought a bouquet of lilies for Zhi Ruo.
