It took awhile before Tan Ji Nan could enter the main gate of Yan High School due to the tight security. He has been interrogated and in the end he told the security men that he was a friend of Yan Mor Tee and he wanted to meet the directress of Yan High School. The security called the Directress office and it was Song Dei Si who answered the call. "Tan Ji Nan?" Song Dei Si asked to ensure that she heard it right.
"Yes, Young Madam. He told me his name is Tan Ji Nan and claimed that he is a friend of the Young Master."
"Yes. He is." She answered. What would Tan Ji Nan be doing in Yan High School? Then she suddenly remember that Ho Min Lin was inside the campus.
"Should we let him in, Young Madam?" The security man asked.
"Yes, but can I talk to him first please?"
"Sure, Young Madam!" the security man gave the receiver to Tan Ji Nan. "Young Madam would like to speak with you."
Young Madam? Why would Song Dei Si be doing in Yan High School? Was she with Ho Min Lin?
"h.e.l.lo!" Tan Ji Nan said when he got the receiver.
"Ji Nan!" Song Dei Si laughed "What a surprise!"
"I came her for Ho Min Lin." Tan Ji Nan answered. "What are you doing here? Are you with Ho Min Lin?"
"I"m working part-time at my mother-in-laws office. Ho Min Lin was with me earlier. We had a coffee at Brooks Cafè and she wanted to see Yan High School again so she was here inside the campus. But I"m not sure where she is exactly right now."
"She"s at the cafeteria. She told me to come here."
"Yeah, just when I thought that you came here for Min Lin. Maybe I should call Mor Tee if he can drop by here so we can see each other later after I got off from work."
"Good idea!" Tan Ji Nan said. It has been awhile since he last saw his bestfriend.
"Okay. I have told the security to let you in."
"Thanks Dei Si."
"No worries. See you later."
.....
Tan Ji Nan felt nostalgic too when he entered Yan High School and saw its facade. He never visited Yan High School after their graduation and he somewhat felt happy that he was able to see it again. He went directly to the cafeteria and he saw Ho Min Lin sitting at her favorite spot. He suddenly remember the times that he would tell the cas.h.i.+er to secretly gave her some food then charged them to his account. But Ho Min Lin would later guess who gave her the food so she would automatically declined them.
The female students looked at Tan Ji Nan when he entered the cafeteria. They have the same expression.
"Who is this adonis and what is he doing here?"
He was wearing a suit and it made him more appealing to the youngsters.
Ho Min Lin noticed the buzz and looked at the direction where the girls were looking at and she smiled when she saw Tan Ji Nan.
The youngsters were disappointed when Tan Ji Nan went directly to Ho Min Lin"s direction.
"Is she his girlfriend?"
"She looks like an old maid"
"She"s not that pretty"
Ho Min Lin frowned when she heard the youngsters comments about her.
"Why are you frowning?" Tan Ji Nan asked. He wanted to kiss her but he felt shy because the eyes of all the people on the cafeteria were looking at them.
"Haven"t you heard what they said about me? Do I look like an old maid to you?"
Tan Ji Nan laughed heartily when he realized that his girlfriend was being jealous of the attention that the female students were giving to him.
"You looked like a lady boss!" He whispered to her ears.
Ho Min Lin was wearing a corporate attire too because she came from her office.
"Have you eaten?" Tan Ji Nan asked her.
"I just had a coffee with Song Dei Si. I"m quite hungry."
"Okay, let"s order some foods." Tan Ji Nan said and gave his hand to Ho Min Lin, then he gently pulled her from her seat.
Tan Ji Nan held her hand while they were walking to the food counter.
"But didn"t they look good together?"
"Yeah, they are perfect for each other."
"Did you know them?"
Ho Min Lin and Tan Ji Nan heard so many small voices as they have pa.s.sed them.
As they reached the food counter. Ho Min Lin feasted on the foods on the counter and some of them were familiar. She got excited when she saw their favorite banana foster shaved ice.
"I thought you"re hungry." Tan Ji Nan asked her when she ordered her favorite.
"Yeah but I wanted to taste it again." Ho Min Lin said excitedly.
"You can have that later. Pick some foods that will make you full."
"Okay. Please serve it for later." Ho Min Lin said to the food attendant. She ordered Chili Tofu and Mini peanut puffs. Tan Ji Nan ordered twist fried dough and fried chop rice cake.
Tan Ji Nan was surprised when she saw the old auntie on the counter.
"Auntie, you"re still working here?" Tan Ji Nan was surprised.
"The old lady looked at Tan Ji Nan and was trying to remember his face.
"Don"t you remember me? I"m Tan Ji Nan!"
Tan Ji Nan?! Is that the Tan Ji Nan that she knew years ago? But that Tan Ji Nan was chubby and the man in front of her was like a fas.h.i.+on model.
"Auntie, do you remember me?" Ho Min Lin asked the old lady too. She was also excited to know that she was still working at the cafeteria.
The old lady looked at Ho Min Lin carefully and then blurted out! "Ho Min Lin!"
"Auntie, I"m so glad you still remember me!"
"Auntie, how come you remember her but not me?" Tan Ji Nan said, he felt aggrieved.
The old lady laughed heartily. "So you really is Tan Ji Nan. You"ve changed so much. Aiyo! You"re so handsome now."
Ho Min Lin laughed out loud too. "He is such a heartrob now, right Auntie?"
"Yes!" She looked back at Ho Min Lin then turned her gaze back to Tan Ji Nan "Are you together now?"
Both of them nodded.
"Aiyo! I still remember how Tan Ji Nan secretly ordered food for you but you always returned it to us." The old lady told Ho Min Lin.
Ho Min Lin face turned red.
"But I"m so happy to see that you"re together now. Ho Min Lin, please take good care of Tan Ji Nan. This guy really loves you."
Tan Ji Nan ears turned red too.
"Young Master and Young Madam got together too. Who else from your group end up with each other?" The old lady asked them.
"None just the four of us." Ho Min Lin answered.
"How about Lee Jin Ho?"
"He doesn"t have a girlfriend right now" Tan Ji Nan answered
"Owww. How about your twin sister?"
"She is also single." Tan Ji Nan answered.
"I see. And the other one? Lu Jiaosheng?"
"He is a playboy and never run out of girls!" Tan Ji Nan said softly and whispered them to the old lady ears.
The old lady laughed heartily. She loves all of them and was glad to see Ho Min Lin and Tan Ji Nan.
Ho Min Lin and Tan Ji Nan would love to chat more with the old lady but the student next to them was mumbling angrily.
"Nice to see you again Auntie." Said Ho Min Lin.
"Same here. Don"t bother to pay. It"s my treat to one of my favorite students" The old lady said.
"Wow Auntie!" Tan Ji Nan said. He smiled at the old lady. He knew that the old lady didn"t earn much through selling food and it might get deducted from her salary but he could reject her treat because he knew that the Auntie"s heart will be broken if he will do that. "We will invite you on our wedding!" Tan Ji Nan said.
Ho Min Lin face blushed. How come he mentioned wedding casually. He don"t even proposed to her yet.
Hmp!
The old lady nodded. "I"m sure I"m going to be there."
Ho Min Lin and Tan Ji Nan excused themselves and went back to their seats.
"You"re going to invite her on our wedding? You have not even propose yet!" Ho Min Lin scoffed as soon as they have seated.
A smile formed Tan Ji Nan"s lips "Are you expecting a wedding proposal from me?" He teased her.
"Of course not. The idea didn"t even cross my mind."
Tan Ji Nan laughed. He loves it whenever he hits her angry b.u.t.ton. He find her more loveable even when she was angry.
He could not wait for the day to marry her.
He could no longer wait to propose on her.
