Giving the employee a polite nod, Yushen said, "Good evening."

When Jennifer didn't take the cotton candy, Yushen asked, "What happened? You didn't like the flavour? Do you want me to get another one for you?"

The colleague's eyes widened even more when she heard the way Yushen was talking to Jennifer. It sounded so intimate and casual that anyone would think Yushen and Jennifer shared a different kind of relationship.

With her head still lowered, Jennifer bit her lower lip and shook her head. How could she ask Yushen to stop acting that way without her colleague misinterpreting things? She could vaguely guess what the colleague was thinking but what could she do? She didn't want fake rumours about Yushen and her relationship to spread in the company.

"Then do you want something else?" Yushen asked.

When Jennifer shook her head, Yushen said, "Hmm then let's go, the movie is about to start."

The colleague awkwardly scratched her forehead and said, "I'll get going too, have a great movie." She couldn't wait to meet her friends and tell them about the secret relationship between Jennifer and their Jr.Boss.

After the colleague left, Jennifer groaned in frustration. "Oh God, now what do I do?"

Yushen frowned and asked, "What is it?"

"What? Didn't you see? She is my colleague and she saw us together."

Yushen shrugged his shoulders and asked, "Ya, so?"

"So? Now she will go around telling everyone that she saw us." Jennifer added.

"Ya, so? We are together and she saw us, what is there to worry about? It's not like we are doing something bad." Yushen has always been a practical and straightforward person. He was nothing like this father or his big brother. Since he liked Jennifer, he didn't mind expressing his feelings or getting caught. So what if an employee had seen them? It meant nothing to him but it wasn't the same for Jennifer.

Not liking the suffocating silence, Jennifer decided to apologise for being rude but as she was about to say something, Yushen's phone buzzed.

"Mom I am driving right now." Yushen said.

"Hmm I am coming home....No nothing happened...oh that is great news, I'll be there soon." After hanging up the call, Yushen said, " Tell me where to stop."

"Right there near that big tree."

Following Jennifer's instruction, Yushen stopped the car. Passing her the cotton candy, he said, "Keep it if you want to otherwise throw it inside that trash can."

"Yushen I-"

Cutting her off, Yushen added, "Just go."

Pursing her lips, Jennifer tightened her grip around the cotton candy and got down from the car.

As soon as she got down, Yushen drove away at full speed.

Looking at the cotton candy, Jennifer sighed and slowly made her way towards her apartment.

.....

Hospital.

Yumi frowned when she noticed a slight difference in Zixin's behaviour. "What happened?"

Zixin vigorously shook his head and gave her a smile. "Nothing happened, I am just excited to meet everyone."

Touching his forehead, Yumi asked, "Are you feeling feverish? Or pukish? Do you want me to call the doctor?"
