"I was always slender and pretty. I just went on diet because I did not have anything better to do over there," Yang Zi interrupted sharply. Su Jin was surprised to hear the tone she used on him but he acted as though he was fine.
"How is work? I hope you are adjusting well," Su Jin quickly skipped his question seeing how agitated Yang Zi was.
"Work has been fantastic. After becoming a boss, I now realise how awesome it feels...,"
"There is nothing awesome about being a boss. Being in a high position comes with a lot of responsibility. An example is that expression on your beautiful face. Just one look at you and I can tell that you haven't had a proper sleep since you resumed your position as CEO Yang of M's Fashion Line and the Chairwoman of Yang's World. Do you understand what I mean?" Su Jin asked sternly, as he stared at Yang Zi.
"You are right, but if you sit down and think about the benefits you receive, you will agree with me that it is worth it," Yang Zi remarked firmly.
"So, how is Mi Er? I have missed my little baby so much. I don't know when I will get to see her again," Su Jin changed the topic again. With how stiff their conversation was, he did not enjoy it even a bit. He had so much to tell her and also had millions of questions to ask her, but he was scared of unintentionally hurting her. Even without being told he knew how sensitive she was, the last thing he wanted to do was hurt her that's why he was very careful with his words and actions.
"She is doing great. She has grown a lot taller. And I am sure she misses you too. You can visit her or take her out anytime you like. As far as it is you, I won't refuse It," Yang Zi said, in a more friendly manner.
"Wow, thank you. I will definitely take her out one of these days," Su Jin said smiling.
"Jin, what about you? How have you been? How is your girlfriend or should I say, girlfriends?" Yang Zi asked to the surprise of Su Jin. He felt so happy that the awkwardness between them was finally beginning to fade away.
"I am fine and I am sure you can tell that from how handsome I have become," Su Jin said playfully, just to make the atmosphere even livelier.
"I am sorry to tell you that I don't have a girlfriend and you are the one who is responsible for why I am still single...,"
"Me? How?" Yang Zi asked, with a mixture of surprise and confusion.
"Yes, I remember a certain lady promising to find me a girlfriend but she ran away before she could fulfil her promise. So, as you can see it wasn't my fault that I remained single but, the lady's fault," Su Jin said faking a sad expression.
"Is that lady you are referring to, me?" Yang Zi asked. The expression on her face showed that she did not recall when she made that promise.
"Of course, Zi Er. When I went on a business trip in place of Feng, you called me to ask whether I knew why Feng was ignoring you. It was then, you promised to find me a girlfriend so don't tell me you don't recall it?" Su Jin asked. He felt like sewing his lips together when he saw Yang Zi's expression change at the mention of Yifeng's name.
"I am sorry for bringing up the past. It slipped...,"
"Why did you have to apologise when I can't even recall what happened in the past?" Yang Zi asked sternly, to the surprise of Su Jin. He was surprised to see that her expression changed in a flash.
With the way Zi Er is acting, it will only take the intervention of a supreme being to make her accept him back. He is surely doomed!
Su Jin assumed as he stared at the lady in front of him.
"If I indeed promised to find you a girlfriend in the past, then that lady must have been Mo Yu. She is my friend from the university and also my executive assistant," Yang Zi said in a serious tone, as she stared at Su Jin who seemed not to have gotten over the shock.
"Mo Yu?" Su Jin asked, pretending as though he did not know that the lady Yang Zi mentioned was the same lady Yifeng always talked about.
"She is tall, beautiful, sexy, intelligent and very caring. If you don't care about family backgrounds, then it isn't an understatement for me to say that she is perfect for you. You will fall in love with her the moment you meet her," Yang Zi said smiling. This was the first time Jin saw her smile since they met again after two years.
"If that is the case then, I can't wait to meet her," Su Jin said as he smiled at her.
"I will set up a date for you two, but make sure to impress her because that is the only way you can win her interest. I won't be able to help you if you don't make her like you on your first meeting," Yang Zi warned.
"Zi Er, leave the work of impressing her to me because I've got this," Jin said confidently, to the surprise of Yang Zi.
"Seeing how confident you are, I guess there is no need for me to get worried that you will mess up your first date with her," Yang Zi said, sounding very relieved. Yang Zi and Su Jin continued bonding for a few minutes. Jin tried his best to get information from her that could be useful to his miserable buddy. Although Yang Zi did not reveal much, he got to know where she had resided during the time she went missing and what she did. She wanted to come out strong to him, that is why she did not mention the miserable part of her life.
