Chapter 143 - Fat blondie

Ming Zhao stopped joking around. He looked at Lena and she was not joking about him removing his pants. "Are you serious?"

"Of course!" Lena beckoned him to remove it.

Ming Zhao crossed his hands and placed it above his man part. "I am unmarried, you can't do that to me."

"I am a doctor. There is no such thing." Lena rushed forward and grabbed his pants and tried to push it down.

Ming Zhao did not expect her to be so bold! He grabbed her hands to stop her from removing his pants. He was able to get a hold of one of her hand. He raised it and turned her around.

Lena used her empty hand to elbow Ming in the stomach. He bent over a bit from the pain. She took the opportunity to grab his arm, goes around him and pulled it harm.

"Yah! It hurts!" Ming screamed.

Lena did not care. She kicked him in the knee and he fell down. Lena sat on top of his back and pulled more of his arm.

"I give up! It hurts!"

Lena's wrestling with Kris had paid off for her hard work. Ming did not expect Lena to be so physically cunning too.

"Tell me that I am the best." Lena commanded.

"You are the best!" Lena pulled his arm more. "I said you're the best already... let me goo."

"Say that you have a small ding ding."

"I'm not going---"

Lena gripped the back of his neck with one hand and pressed on the pressure points.

"Ah...I am not going to say that. I'll buy you food. I'll buy you food!!"

Lena loosened her grip on his neck. "For a week."

"For a week."

Lena smiled. Her fridge was still empty and her schedule is so packed that she does not have time yet to go fill it up. Without seeing Kris for a while, she was not able to charge him so free food for a week was a good deal for her.

Lena got off him and cracked her neck. Ming was huffing and puffing from the pain. He got up and massage his shoulder. Lena was a monster! She did not withhold any strength when she pulled his arm.

She made sure that nothing fell out of her bag as she tackled Ming on the floor. She fixed her hair and looked back at the unhappy man.

"Hurry up, I am hungry."

"Tsk." He rolled his eyes at her.

Lena made sure the coast was clear before they walked out of the room and toward the elevator. When they got inside, James texted Lena that he was outside waiting for her already.

Ming looked down at the Lena. "You know... in the past, bringing you with food was the easiest way to stop you."

"In the past... pretty sure I don't know you in the past."

"Don't know me?" Ming walked up to Lena and pushed her to the corner. "You and Hazel always made fun of me."

Lena shook her head. "No.. we only made fun of ugly men and I am---" Lena paused. She looked at his blonde hair and a memory struck her.

She gasped and put both hands to cover her mouth. "Fat blondie?"

When Lena and Hazel were young, they made fun of many boys that went to school with Lena. There was one particular boy that Hazel always made fun of because he was chubby and his hair was yellow. They gave him the nickname Fat Blondie. Back then, Lena was still young and followed everything Hazel did.

Fat blondie would bribe Lena with chocolate so she brings Hazel away not to bully him. On the days that he forgot to bring her treats, Lena would play with his hair. She would tie it up with rubber bands and put lipgloss on his lips. There were a few times she painted his nails too.

Why did Lena not recall him until now? Of course, such memory of that young boy was insignificant for her. Lena tried to compare the young Ming Zhao to the current one standing in front of her. She removed her hands for her mouth as the elevator door opened.

Ming stepped out first and Lena followed. She was still eyeing him, trying to comprehend how the little chubby boy was now a handsome young man. Even after disregarding the weight difference... his entire face is so different from then and now. Did he get plastic surgery?

"You got skinnier?!" Lena pointed out.

Ming turned around and poke Lena on the forehead. "I have gotten skinny since forever. It was just that one year and you traumatized my childhood for life."

Lena felt for Ming. The old Lena was indeed a big bad bully. And here she was, still bullying him... for different reasons of course. Ming crossed her line first, she needed to revive her dignity for him playing her.

If Ming Zhao was with them when they were small, then he might know who her first fiance is! "You remember the other boys' name? Anyone from the Bai or the Huang family?"

"No." He starts walking again.

"Wait a minute... were we engage when we were small?" Lena stopped walking and looked at him in surprise.

Ming stopped too and turned around to face her. "Of course! But you chose that tall skinny dude over a fat blondie. That was the best day of my life, to be honest. My prayers were answered and I did not have to marry a nightmare."

"Nightmare?! But you might still have to marry me!" She raised her voice.

"Aiya... I would not marry you in a million years." Ming waved his hands in a no-no motion, not catching what Lena was trying to say to him. He stopped suddenly as he recalled something.

After the annulment with the Shen family, his grandfather accepted a different marriage proposal from the Bai family. Their daughter would be marrying the Zhao's first son. Since Ming is no longer technically the first son of the Zhao family, then it would be valid that what Lena was talking about could be true.

Ming backed away from Lena. "Don't come near me."

"...."

"No dinner today. I need to go speak with my father." Ming turned around and head back out to the front entrance in a run.

"Make sure to tell him I don't wanna marry you too!" Lena screamed at the top of her lungs, hopefully, Ming heard it too.

A few people looked at her but she ignored them. She had already lost her appetite so she ran the same way Ming disappeared to. James was indeed already waiting for her. She opened the back door and hopped in.

"Let's go. This place is cursed."

James looked back at Lena and was confused. He did not ask any more question from her. He knew that her mind was somewhere else.
