Song Xiulan just received a very long message from her transgender best friend, Wen Wenyan, that he currently broke up with his wealthy sugar daddy and he"ll come back to S city sometime soon to mend his broken heart and finances.Xiulan knitted her brows when she read that he"ll come back soon. It means that Wenyan will be living in her apartment. She haven"t tidy up that place yet and it"s full of unnecessary paperwork. She must clean that place before Wenyan comes back. Xiulan is sure that she"ll receive a backlash from Wenyan when he sees her apartment.
Wenyan is currently not in good terms with his family due to his decisions in becoming a woman. Wenyan"s family didn"t have any problems when he confessed that he was gay. But when he told them that he wanted to be a woman and have a s.e.x change, her parents went diabolical on him. They oust him out of the Wen family and never acknowledge him even though he has wonderful t.i.tles and achievements in Paris, London and Belgium.
Xiulan became his only family and friend during his h.e.l.lish and successful days. Wenyan loved Xiulan like his own blood. He thought that if he remained as a man, he might have married Xiulan.
Though Wenyan physically looks like a woman now, for Xiulan he is still the cutie pie matinee idol Wenyan in her primary and secondary school days. Xiulan always find it really funny that the hot matinee idol is now a hot muse. What an amazing development, Xiulan thought.
Even though Wenyan is a woman now, Xiulan would still call him brother. It"s more like an endearment and to annoy him. Also only Xiulan can call Wenyan as brother. Because both of them felt awkward if Xiulan suddenly calls him as sister. They have been friends for half of their lives and changing a simple endearment felt really awkward.
Xiulan quickly called Wenyan. He was brokenhearted and obviously suffering from the other side of the world. As the only person who believes in him, a call might make his mood brighter.
While Xiulan is both walking and talking to Wenyan on the phone, she saw luxurious cars outside the building of her father"s company.
"Wow. Father"s client might be someone important. There are a lot of expensive cars outside our building." Xiulan suddenly blurted out while talking to Wenyan.
"Huh? Why are you there anyway? I thought your office is not in your dad"s company?" Wenyan asked.
"Yeah, you are right. My IT company resides on Y district since most of my employees lived near there. I"m just here to visit father since he wanted to talk about my upcoming marriage. Have I told you that I"m gonna get married soon?" Xiulan casually said like her marriage was a no biggie.
"Huh!? Why I didn"t know about that? You meanie! Spill it!" Wenyan suddenly became excited when he heard that his sister from another planet is getting married.
"I actually only found out about my marriage a month ago during my nephew"s 3rd (one of her cousin"s child) birthday. It was weird since most of my relatives paled when they found out who my husband to be is." Xiulan said. She"s now entering the building and she gave a faint smile to the security guard. She went directly to the elevator and waited for her turn to come in.
"Who is it anyway? Give me more details! Faster! G.o.dd.a.m.nit!" Wenyan was so thirsty to find out more about Xiulan"s wedding.
Before Xiulan speaks, she looked at her surroundings first and cleared her throat. It"s only four of them inside the elevator and they looked like they don"t know her. It was one very tall guy with two bulky men in black suits. Xiulan didn"t saw the tall man"s face since he was very tall and why does she need to look at his face anyway?
Also as a daughter of this company"s CEO, employees would always greet her and they are familiar with her face. But those three seemed to not know her.
She thought that maybe they are outsiders or new. "It"s Xing Hongqi. Does it ring a bell? I actually only heard about him from my employees and my sisters. They seem to wors.h.i.+p him." Xiulan said.
The three person inside the elevator suddenly put their attention on Xiulan"s small frame. The very tall man raised his eyebrows and attentively eavesdropped on Xiulan"s phone conversation.
"My G.o.d! Xiulan baby, I might have lived my life in Europe for the past ten years but I still know Xing Hongqi! This d.a.m.n girl! Are you really a CEO of an IT company? Why you don"t know about him?" Wenyan suddenly scolded Xiulan for not knowing G.o.d Hongqi.
"But I really don"t know him. I"ve heard his name before but I didn"t pay attention since I was really busy with work and I"ve been constantly studying." Xiulan explained. She was a computer genius and since technology is always advancing, she has to study constantly to keep up with the latest tech.
She doesn"t care about who"s the wealthiest or the most popular right now. If only Hongqi was under her radar, then she might have known him. But he was a business man, politician and a show business enthusiast. What"s the correlation between Hongqi and Xiulan? None!
"You"re giving me a headache. I can"t believe I know someone who doesn"t know Xing Hongqi! Ugh! I"ll call you later. You are stressing me out. Give me the details of your wedding through message instead." Wenyan hurriedly ended the call.
Xiulan frowned and thought why are people getting headaches whenever she say that she doesn"t know Xing Hongqi. She was bewildered.
Xiulan suddenly felt like an alien or a trespa.s.ser in a religion. Hongqi was the G.o.d of that religion and she was an oblivious peasant that troubled everyone by her stupidity. Is it that bad that she was never interested in gossips and show business?
Xiulan never felt alienated like this in her entire life.
Xiulan has reached her father"s office floor and directly went to meet her father"s secretary. She didn"t even noticed that the people inside the elevator with her also went down on the same floor.
When the secretary saw her, he immediately smile but that smile also lasted for a few seconds and changed to a gaping expression.
Her father"s secretary was shocked. He never thought that Xiulan and Hongqi would meet this early and they even rode the same elevator! The most shocking is that the young madame seems to be oblivious. Wow! He never thought that a person would not really know Xing Hongqi. It was an amazing sight.
"Good afternoon, Young madame and Young Master Hongqi. Master Song Yingpei has been waiting for your arrival. Please come inside." the secretary politely said and opened the door for them.
Xiulan suddenly looked at the person behind her and now she clearly saw the same tall man with his goons earlier in the elevator. This time she saw his face.
His eyebrows were raised and he was looking at her as well. Xiulan thought that he was definitely ethereal! She quickly removed her sight away from the man and hastily went inside her father"s office.
"Is that really my future husband? I suddenly felt pressured." Xiulan said to herself.
"Ah! My lovely daughter Xiulan. You"re finally here." Xiulan"s father greeted her. He was about to come near her but stopped when he saw a man behind Xiulan.
"Oh! Young Master Hongqi!" he cheered. It was an unexpected sight. Seeing Xiulan and Hongqi like this. It made father Song"s heart flutter.
"Beautiful afternoon, Master Song Yingpei." Hongqi greeted the old man. His voice was really deep and crisp. Just by the way he spoke, he already has that authoritative tone and feel.
Xiulan suddenly felt a cold sweat on her back and neck. She doesn"t know why she"s nervous and constipated. This level of nervousness is uncomfortable for her! The tension was extreme and Hongqi only greeted her father but she felt like battling the final boss in one of her RPG games.
Xiulan felt extremely uncomfortable. She wanted this to end immediately but it"s just about to start. Oh the horror!
"Please sit, the both of you." father Song excitedly said and he also sat in one of the sofa instead of sitting on his office chair.
"Ah this is making my heart flutter." father Song can"t help but utter that. He was on cloud nine. He never thought that Hongqi and Xulian would look so good together. He can already imagine his future grandchildren under these two. Ah they would look like angels! Father Song thought.
Xiulan sat on the sofa first. When she felt Hongqi sat beside her, the cold sweat and constipation worsen. The last time she had this kind of feeling was when she was introducing her thesis to ten professors way back during her last semester in university.
Xiulan awkwardly stole a glance at Hongqi and to her surprise he was also looking at her. She gave him an awkward smile and moved her attention to her father. Her father was grinning like an idiot at them.
"Young master Hongqi, this is my youngest daughter Song Xiulan. I know you"ve heard about her from me for so many times. Hehe." Father Song grinned and slightly coughed when he can"t stop his smile.
Hongqi nodded and faintly smiled at Xiulan.
"Xiulan, this is Young Master Xing Hongqi. He"s the one I"m talking about a month ago. Please greet him." Father song said and he was really attentive to the two.
"Great meeting you, Young Master Hongqi. I deeply apologized for not greeting you awhile ago." Xiulan said. She flashed her sweet smile at Hongqi first before bowing her head.
Hongqi can"t stop staring at Xiulan. He thought that she"s like a trembling kitty. So tiny, cute and delicate. Her face says it all that she"s nervous but he can"t help but be mesmerized by her beauty. Her lips and eyes captured his attention. He thought that it was really lovely. He suddenly got annoyed when she bowed her head, hiding all her beautiful features. He still wanted to savor that sweet smile.
"It"s okay, I understand. Miss Xiulan might be really busy that she didn"t notice me." Hongqi teased. He was wearing this s.e.xy grin when he spoke.
Xiulan raised her head and her constipation leveled up to the extreme by seeing that smile. "What a charming smile... if I marry him then I will have to see that smile everyday. I don"t think my heart and my stomach can keep up." Xiulan thought.
Xiulan thought that he has this friendly aura for a powerful man but at the same time he is dangerous to anger.
