Chapter 8 - Where Is She?

"Ah? Uh... There is no harm, I guess? It's not like I purposely hid from the public, there were so many people trying to find my whereabouts, how would I know if they were the bad guys. In the past, in Country Y, I wasn't of age yet so I can't possibly go about drinking with our partners or clients. After that, because of the contract I can't show up here constantly and I also cannot split myself into two, so to keep you guys safe, it is better to let the anyone know about it. Now that I am officially back, I would be opening my own company as well, so I would show up eventually." Mo Xi replied with a casual tone and a smile on her face.

"Okays~ I will ask them to meet at the M & M Hotel's restaurant tonight at seven then, that way we can keep the privacy of me and them. By the way, I sent the reports and contracts to you already, I have checked them and signed already. There are a few that still needs your signature to be completed."

"Mm. If that's all I will be hanging up," Mo Xi said.

"Alright, have fun in school~ Hahahaha!" Yan Chu teased before he hung up.

After Mo Xi ended the call, she informed the Hotel's manager to clear up the restaurant and prepare dinner for four. She then went to the study room to proceed on with her work.

After Lu Jin Xiao arranged to meet with "Chu Yan", he contacted Jing Mo Chen again and they went to M & M Hotel at seven. Ever since Jing Mo Chen became the CEO of Jing's Corporation, it had only been people flooding to meet him, this is the first time he personally sought to meet others. This just shows how eager he was to find "Mo Xi" and how important "Mo Xi" was to him.

M & M Hotel's restaurant.

Mo Xi sat in a separate room from the three who were meeting outside. She specifically instructed the Chief Chef what to prepare for her and the three men in the other room. She had been trying to get her health back into shape again after what happened five years ago. However, because of her work and responsibilities, she never had the chance to rest well or ate well. Her injuries weren't as severe as Jing Mo Chen's and yet she still hadn't fully recovered after five years. This would mean that Jing Mo Chen who also carries heavy responsibilities would not have enough time to recover as well. Hence, she took this chance to help herself and Jing Mo Chen to get back into good health. The recipes were created by her according to what she believed Lu Jin Xiao and Jing Mo Chen liked, but with special herbs added in.

"Ms. Xing, please enjoy," Chief Chef said after he placed the food down.

"Thank you. Remember to make sure that they ate the food." Mo Xi said and began to eat.

Outside the room, Mo Xi was in.

Lu Jin Xiao and Jing Mo Chen arrived together.

Jing Mo Chen smelt a familiar scent in the restaurant the moment he stepped in, it was the scent of Mo Xi. He began to look around the restaurant but there was no one else in the restaurant.

"Nice to meet you Mr. Lu and Mr. Jing, please have a seat. I will get the chef to serve our dinner, hope you don't mind that it is ordered without asking for your preference." Yan Chu said and instructed the chef to serve the dishes.

"Mr. Chu, we met five years ago, right?" Jing Mo Chen decided to cut to chase the moment he sat down.

"He," Yan Chu laughed a little, "Mr. Jing is just as how others have described, extremely straightforward. I'm surprised that you still remember me."

"Where is she?"

"Who is the "she" you are referring to?"

"Mo Xi! The one that brought you away five years ago, where is she?" Lu Jin Xiao couldn't stand all the dilly-dally.

Then, the Chief Chef came in to serve the food and place them according to what Mo Xi had instructed him.

"Please have some food first, we specially prepared the food for you." Chief Chef said after he placed them and left the room.

Lu Jin Xiao and Jing Mo Chen wanted to deny and ask Yan Chu about Mo Xi again. However, to their surprise, the food in front of them was clearly made according to their likings. People like Lu Jin Xiao and Jing Mo Chen don't show their preference outside to prevent any rivals from tampering their food. Only their family would know what they like to eat, so they were surprised to see that the food prepared was catered to each of their preference.

"Yes, please have some food first, we can talk after we eat." Yan Chu added.

"Answer me first, where is she?" Jing Mo Chen said with a deep voice.

"Seems like you won't start eating until I answer you," Yan Chu said and his phone notification sounded, "Excuse me", then he took out his phone to look.

He received a message from Mo Xi, "If you don't make him eat, I will deduct three months of your salary."

Yan Chu read the message and his eyes immediately widen and almost cursed out loud.

F*ck! What does it have to do with me! He is the one that doesn't want to it! It is because of you that he is not eating!

For once, Yan Chu got to see Mo Xi being so caring to another person that she would even threaten him with his salary.
