As Mi Rae reached the restaurant at a dead run,she was out of breath and late!And not just late,she was late by 20 minutes.Hou gege was going to kill her.He hated wasting time!Hou gege was a surgeon whose time was like rare jadeite.Whenever he had free time,he would arrange to meet up with his family and if they were late then they were in for a verbal beating.This was not because Hou Ge ge looked down upon anyone but because many times he had to leave mid way and he did not like not spending quality time.
Since she was in a hurry,Mi Rae missed many things.The first thing she failed to notice was the couple who was sitting in the corner booth.The lady had seen Mi Rae enter the restaurant and had gotten up to greet her while the man was still sitting.Next, Mi Rae failed to notice a chair that was a little out from it"s position,causing Mi Rae"s foot to get stuck and for her to almost fall.Thank the fates that her gege was there and he acted immediately by catching her and preventing the fall.Holding her by the shoulders,he stabilized her and was about to go into lecture mode when suddenly his wrist was poked at by a long and pointed nail.
He turned in irritation to glare at whoever was there when he lost his power of speech for a few minutes...He was confronted by the most beautiful face in the world.Though the beauty was glaring at him,all Zheng Hou could do was blink his eyes at her.Though what she did next definitely jolted him.
Poking his wrist again,she pushed down his hands from Mi Rae"s shoulders and pushed her behind her and said in a bossy voice,"She is mine!Why are you holding her for so long?I thank you for saving her but really no need to take advantage!Hmpf!"
Zheng Hou could only blink again at the woman.Even Mi Rae was a little sh.e.l.l shocked and did not know what to say!The first thought that crossed Zheng Hou"s mind was,"Pity!The woman is beautiful..but a lunatic!"His second thought was,"even more the pity that his sister was her type..Looking at the beauty..he would have put up with luncay as well.."
Ryu Long who had been enjoying the show his wife put up when she dragged Mi Rae behind her immediately went on alert when he saw the interest in Zheng Hou.Smoothly,he went to Alicia and putting an arm around her said,"Missus,you are mistaken.This man was not taking advantage of Mi Rae.He is her twin brother.."
Mi Rae and Zheng Hou both looked in shock at Ryu Long and Alicia was awed for a second.But then she recovered and stared at Zheng Hou hard, causing him to feel uncomfortable.She then turned to look at Mi Rae.Apparently satisfied she nodded and said to Mi Rae,"It"s Ok..Even if you are twins,you don"t look alike.No need to be worried."It sounded as if she was consoling Mi Rae for being better looking than her brother..
Zheng Hou who had been thoroghly insulted and confused by Alicia,cleared his throat and asked rather rudely,"May I know who you are?And how do you know me and Mi Rae?"
Alicia turned to look at him and said,"I just told you Mi Rae is my person! So of course I know who she is! And Ryu knows you probably because he knows everything!" With that she got out of her hubby"s arms and looped her hand around Mi Rae"s and said to her, "How are you now? I am sorry I couldn"t visit. This morning sickness I have has been happening throughout the day! "Then answering her own question she looked at the light scar and said, "Thank the fates it hasn"t scarred much! The scar that I have that Ryu"s ex gave me is frankly irritating!"
As Alicia was on a roll, Mi Rae and Zheng Hou could only nod. To distract his wife,Ryu finally said, "Missus,I am about to leave and since you came with my arm I suggest you leave with mine too."He looked pointedly at Mi Rae"s and Alicia"s joined arms.Alicia immediately understood that her hubby was jealous and said magnanimously,"Don"t worry. I am leaving with you now. Mi Rae is not my type."
With that Alicia bid goodbye to Mi Rae and promised to call her to catch up and left with her hubby.
After the siblings recovered from the shock, Zheng Hou turned to Mi Rae and said, "Explain."
Mi Rae ignored him and went to sit followed by Zheng Hou.
However Zheng Hou was not a fool.He finally recognized the couple.And stared shocked at his sister sating,"If I am not mistaken,that was the mighty Ryu Long and his extra ordinary wife!But they did not behave like that1Mi Rae,why was Alicia Long calling you her person?"
Mi Rae rolled her eyes as she drank water and then said,"Probably because she is my boyfriend"s best friend and was feeling possessive.."
Zheng Hou nodded in agreement.It seemed all of them were possessive..too much.First Neil Long had wanted to kill him when he saw her with MiRae.Then the beautiful woman had poked and insulted him as if he was some pervert!And to top it all,he had feared for his hands,when ALicia had shook them to bid goodbye!He almost exepected a few thugs to coe and chop them off on Ryu Long"s orders.Having thought about this,he turned to his sister and nodding sagely said,"If you continue to date Neil,you are going to marry into a family of lunatics!"
