"Are you serious?", she questioned with a surprised expression.Jiang Chen nodded.
"HA HA HA" Ziyi burst out into wide laughter. Her beautiful teeth alignment shone in pure white like a lightning, while her pink lips stretched towards the corner.
Jiang Chen stared at her intently feeling lost in her beautiful smile. This is the first time he saw her laughing happily ever since they met. She always had a cold expression on her face all the time. But her lovely smile created ripples in his heart once again…. The same feeling, even after years of separation.
"Will you …?", his voice was low, projecting the years of longing, he had for her.
"I already gave my answer. Jokes are meant to be laughed... not to be answered !!", she responded directly without any haste.
"Do you think I am joking now?", his expression become serious.
"Just because you think it"s not a joke, doesn"t mean it isn"t", she smirked.
"Ziyi..!!!", Chen slammed the table with great amount of force. His nostrils flared up with mad anger. His eyes turned furious and his hand was trembling with the fury. Till now, he tried his best to never show his angry face in front of her. But her expression of nonchalance made his lose his coolness.
"Finally, the cover is blown off", Ziyi thought inwardly.
"Shhhh…", Ziyi signaled placing her index finger on her lips.
"Do you think I am your PA or what? Getting scared because of your anger? If a shout or yell could determine the power, trust me Mr. Jiang, I can do it better than you !! So, please keep your tone of voice to be polite", her tone of speech was moderate, neither low or high.
Jiang Chen was surprised at her words. If there was somebody else, they might have definitely been scared to death seeing his expression. The girl in front of him was not even scared by him. Earlier, she used to run away even seeing his eye expression ..but now, she is warning him openly without even batting her eyelids. In fact, it"s his fault to lose his temper. His expression became gentle and he composed himself.
"Ziyi…I am sorry!! I am not angry and I can never be angry at you... Can we have a peaceful talk at least once, please?"
"Okay !!"
"Really ?" Chen"s eyes beamed with happiness. Ever since he met her, she always ends their conversation in a few minutes and always on a bitter note. But surprisingly, she agreed immediately.
"Do I have any other choice? Since I avoided once, you booked my entire train and made it non-stop. If I avoid one more time, I am worried to imagine what scary thing you will do next ….So, Let"s do your so called PEACEFUL TALK and end it ,once for all" , she answered with irritation apparent in her eyes.
"I didn"t mean to do this Ziyi. But I am really investigating matters five years ago. So, can I ask you few questions ?", he chose the words carefully looking at her expression.
"Mr. Jiang���You don"t need to give any explanation for this matter. Just go ahead and shoot ", folding her arms across her chest, Ziyi raised her brows at him.
Jiang Chen heaved a long sigh and said, " Do you know me before ?"
"Yes, I do.."
Chen"s breath stopped in the mid air...Before he could feel the happiness, she answered,"who doesn"t know the heir of Jiang conglomerate in this world...until they are so stupid"
Chen looked at her face intently and asked, " You know what I am asking..Can you be truthful at least once please"
Ziyi stared at the silhouette sitting infront of him and remained silent.
Jiang Chen hesitated for a brief moment before deciding to ask her another question, since she didn"t respond to the previous question "Are you not my Ziyi ?"
"What if I am.. ?" Ziyi twitched her lips into an enigmatic smile.
