Three days passed by very fast. On the fourth afternoon, Yun Xuan very cheerfully drove into the largest beauty parlor in the capital. She had the stylist cut her blonde hair a little and style it into curls. As usual, the long bangs were retained.
Satisfied with her new look, she proceeded into the shopping centre to buy a dress. Although she did not want to, she noticed how obviously the EFW store in this shopping centre was crowded. Could it be any more obvious?
She gritted her teeth and walked into YX brand store to promote her own studio.
"Boss." The salespeople recognized her and greeted in unison.
They were shocked in the next moment when she chose a cute little dress and said she was going to buy it.
"Boss, you are the boss. How can you buy your own dress?"
"That's right. Boss should not pay for anything here."
"I want to buy it. Do you have a problem with that?" She glared at them.
They found it weird, but she was the boss. They just assumed that she had too much money lately.
She changed in the dressing room and walked out looking very beautiful. Satisfied with the gasps of admiration behind her, she got into her car and drove to the airport.
Tyler arrived soon after. Just as she was about to rush up to him, someone else did that first.
"Tyler!" the girl beamed from ear to ear and jumped right into his arms. She then streched out her hand to help him with his luggage under Yun Xuan's widened eyes.
She had really outdone herself this time. She was wearing a very short and body hugging black dress. Even Yun Xuan had to admit that she looked much more beautiful and attractive than usual. But the problem was that she had obviously dolled herself up for her man! Yun Xuan narrowed her eyes and glared at her. Ruolin who had obviously done it on purpose winked at Yun Xuan when Tyler was not looking, provoking her even more.
Tyler had spotted Yun Xuan and was just about to go over to her when someone unexpectedly jumped in for a hug. He was too late to stop her. The next thing he saw was Yun Xuan's unhappy gaze.
"...RUOLIN!" he roared.
The woman retreated shyly and glanced at him. "My brother is back after a whole month. Can I not hug you?"
"My fiancée doesn't like it. Get out of the way!" he commanded, not paying any attention to her.
Obviously, she was very unhappy. "Tyler! Are you really disregarding your sister because of a woman?" she cried.
"Isn't my sister a woman?" Tyler walked towards Yun Xuan as he said to Ruolin, "I'll set you up for a blind date. You should get married soon."
He walked to the stunned Yun Xuan and hugged her. "I'm sorry about my sister. Don't be too upset."
"It's alright." she decided to ignore Ruolin as they got into her car.
Tyler was tired from being on the plane for long so Yun Xuan drove. Seeing that she was silently gripping the steering wheel all the way from the airport and did not let out a single peep during the whole car ride, Tyler knew she was still unhappy.
He tickled her waist as soon as they entered his apartment. "Still unhappy?"
"What do you think?" she glared at him.
Was it not obvious? Do you know how it feels to dress up for a man and the person who gets to hug him first is another woman?
"I'm sorry. I really did not expect her to do that." he apologized.
"You still call each other 'brother' and 'sister'? Thinking of how she clung to you makes my stomach churn. Urgh..."
Tyler was about to hug her when she pushed him away. "You are not allowed to touch me for the next one week! Keep your distance. If possible, don't even breathe the same air as me." With that, she really ignore him and kept her distance.
Tyler felt it was very unfair. After missing his fiancée for a month, he could not even hug her?

Due to Wan Jia's record of making Elite Fashion World explode in benefits as soon as she joined the company, the CEO promised to organize a welcome banquet for her.
Well, not exactly. The banquet was Lu Aotian's and Lu Shaoting's idea. They had already planned to organize it when Wan Jia talked of joining EFW. The CEO only agreed to the idea when Lu Shaoting instructed him and he too thought that it was a good idea.
That in itself was a new record set by Wan Jia. She would be the first employee in Elite Fashion World to be thrown a welcome banquet and the third in the whole of Lu Enterprises. The first two were of course the Lu brothers.
The company was in uproar. Although the other designers envied her for her good luck, they felt that she indeed deserved it. They had seen their studio rise in value after the Golden Hand Awards. The already highly regarded Elite Fashion World had become even more unbeatable. They had also heard the incessant ringing of phones as people asked to talk to Wan Jia.
If this welcome banquet was a reward, it was undeniable that she had earned it.
Wan Jia had just left the office very tired after the long day of work and was absent mindedly walking towards the elevator when she saw someone that made her squint her eyes.
Su Ling?
