Lau Mei has been wake up by a loud noise outside of her room of a shouting lady as if waking her up. Due to the loud noise she gets up from her bed and open the door.
"My lady the breakfast is ready down stairs, Madam is waiting for you to..."
She raised her hand telling her to stop and she look at her surroundings. She saw a mid-age maid where a formal black maid uniform and also 3 women where same uniform but younger than her. At her room she saw a King size bed as if the bed can be use by the royalties at the Buckingham Palace due to its class and elegance, the windows that are so tall that it reaches to the ceilings with curtains that exude beauty and A fireplace with a clock on the top of it that looks antique as if generations of families have been using the room. She is snap back to her reality when the maid called her.
"Lady Lau"
Then flashes of memories come to her mind. One of those she is wearing red backless dress and dancing at the dance floor surrounded by drunk men and another is she having a make out of a random guy with a medium size tattoo of a cross with a red rose at the center and the next memories are to blurred to remember. She tried to remember further but her memories are really to blurred maybe it because of the alcohol that she can't remember further and the worst she can't remember why is she wearing a red backless dress. Remembering she is wearing that kind of dress makes her creeps. Now, She is at a room with full of elegance without knowing what happens last night as if she is being dragged by the time too fast that even herself can't even get to the flow.
The maid is about to call her again but she stop her.
"Okay... Tell mom that I will go down after a few minutes."
She just lately realized that she wears a night gown that is color pink and due to her frustration she just shout at the top of her lungs and called someone.
"MOM!!!"
Meanwhile, Lau Mingxia, mother of Lau Mei is sipping her coffee at the dining hall while reading the newspaper. A maid beside her is about to inform her about the young lady Lau Mei but a loud screaming her voice is heard around the house.
"Stop, I know she now awake. I'll just wait for her"
After a while a loud thumping foot sounds that are going down stairs and Lau Mei approach her mother black fitted sweat shirt, pants that has a 2 pockets on both sides with a zipper in the her knees that looks like her pants can turn in to a short, a combat boots as if she is going for a combat, her hair is braided that her scalp can be seen through the sides of the braid and carrying university bag at her right shoulder. All in all, she looks like a male in a woman's body which made her mom annoyed. To her mother annoyance the sides of the newspaper that she is holding have been slight wrinkled but still maintain her poise. One side of her brow raised high as if mocking her attire.
"Lady what are you wearing???"
"Clothes." She said casually but with a hint of mockery too.
"Have you not seen the clothes that I put in front of your dresser."
"No, besides this kinds of clothes is were I am comfortable and you know that I hate those flowery clothes and those high pointed shoes are not my taste. So am not wearing those clothes"
Her mother no longer know what to say to her. She just give long sighed and massaged her both temples due to her boyish daughter. She don't know how to managed her daughter when she is like this.
"Can I sit now. MOM"
"Okay... sit" her mom sighed again as if she is giving up with the answer of her daughter.
after a while her mom start a topic again asking where she was last night but due to the blurriness of her memories she can't say anything.
"The maids said the you were brought by Xiao Jie last night, is that right?" asking her.
"Ah... Yes, Yes! She brought me here last night"
Not to her knowing that her mother is lying to her and just using her friend Xiao Jie just to know if she know how did she get back at their house.
"Really..." with a hint of curiosity to the emotions of her daughter.
"YES! Anything else?" with a tone reassuring her mother that not to worry anything.
"Okay then I shall tell you this Lau Mei next month is your engagement party to the only son of Chin Group of companies and your wedding will be done whether you like or not."
Telling it to her by her mother while she is eating a clubhouse sandwich makes her shock to the point she is almost choked but luckily she drink her water.
"Wait did I hear it right or am just imagining things?"
"Lady Lau your not hearing wrong what you heard just now is not a part of your imagination." the maid said it to her respectfully and assuring all she heard was right.
Hearing those words makes her feel mix emotions she don't know if she will laugh or cry regarding the matter said by her mother. Besides she is only 24 years old she don't want to marry yet. she still has journeys to make with her Adam and she want to do it with him.
"Mom... I can't get married I still want to have journeys with Adam and besides am still too young to get married. I want to travel around the world with Adam.
"Your Adam is with you anytime of the day, the worst because of that Adam you have always been out of the house and you rearly stay here." Lau Mingxiao said it as if she been away from her daughter for so many years with matching teary eyes.
Because of this Lau Mei touch the space between her brows and thinking whether she should consider or not.
"You have no heart for your mother" with a teary eyes with matching a small handkerchief wiping her teary eyes. Seeing her mother cry her heart felt sad and have no heart to say no.
"Okay, okay, I will go but I will only meet the guy first and second, PLEASE no engagement" comforting her mother at the same time emphasizing her second request. Hearing those words from her daughter Lau Mingxiao immediately hold the both hands of her daughter and clasped it together
"Really you will do this for me. My daughter you don't know how happy mother is" with a tone of happiness and worst Lau Mei felt that her mother just trapped her with her teary words.
"Clap, clap"
Automatically a maid holding a red cushion pillow with a phone on it suddenly emerged somewhere. Lau Mingxia dial her phone
"Amiga! My daughter agreed to meet your son so let's set the place and date where they will meet. Besides..." due to the long conversation of her mother is she just turn her back heading outside
"Oh. Wait Xiao Mei I'll text you when and where you will meet okay don't disappoint your mother. Love you" said by her mother happily while still holding the phone at her hand. Lau Mei give her mother a signal of okay and head outside as she saw her Adam.
She smiled. "Let's go Adam we will have more work to do at the car shop"
In her thoughts Lau Mei is already making a plan how to ruin the date that she will have with the strange man. She just agreed to her mother just to stop her mother from nagging her to have dates with other guys.
Meanwhile, a man pick up his phone from the side of his bed. He look at the caller I.D. and saw her mom calling.
"Mom... its so early can you call me later or tomorrow I had a hangover and still getting some sleep." still sleepy and quite annoyed by her mother.
"Zhang Wei are you blind from what side of Earth are you sleeping its already 11:00 am and that's what you called early. Oh... by the way don't drop the call I have arranged a date for you. Meet her the day after tomorrow at the King's Hotel at 6:00 pm sharp you better not be late or else i'll tell your father what you really are."
Zhang Wei don't know what to say anymore hearing from the authoritative voice of her mother as if he was been splashed by cold ice hearing the last sentence of her mother.
