Deming helped Lifen in setting the breakfast table. There was pancakes, steamed stuffed buns, congee and some boiled eggs. The breakfast was a way too simple for him, but it was giving a sense love warmth from within. He has appointed the top notch chef of the country at w.a.n.g Palace who ensures that the dishes presented to him are all of best quality and take, but it lacks the love warmth inside it.
"That"s okay, I will bring the rest things. Come and have a seat. Don"t over exert yourself. I am here in your service, use me", he said while pulling a chair for her to sit.
Lifen smiled and brought the spoons and forks for everyone, "Thanks for you concern, dear but it"s all done. They will be coming soon, then we can dig in together".
Soon everyone was on the table. This time the conversation between them was a lot better than before. Daiyu often tried to break some joke, in response to which a heavy laughter can be heard from time to time. They were enjoying the breakfast.
Guang wanted to hibernate her curiosity, but that was not a easy task for her. She still asked a few questions regarding their relations.h.i.+p. The answer she got from him doesnot calmed her doubts rather added more questions in her heart. She was really becoming more and more doubtful about him and his intentions. Is he really in love with her? If not, then what are his real intentions.
Deming could feel her suspicious gaze on him, but he doesn"t lose her composure. He gently held Lifen"s hand an gave her a contented look.
They completed their breakfast and left for the school. Guang was all time staring at Deming to get something to solidify her thoughts but it was of no use.
Soon they arrived at The Zhang School of Business. He stepped out and went to open the door for Lifen out of his gentleman manner. "Whoa! that"s so cute. I really love the way you treat her. I wish I could get someone like you too", Daiyu exclaimed then turned to Guang, "Guang, don"t you think they look cute together".
She doesn"t gave any response to her. Daiyu nudged her arm, "What? Do you agree or not?"
Guang without giving any heed to her question, nodded and said, "Let"s head for the cla.s.s first or we would be late". Guang and Daiyu headed first followed by Deming and Lifen.
They quickly went for their cla.s.ses. "Hey Lifen!", Fei Hong waved to Lifen from a distance. He took several large strides, nearly ran to reach her, but when he came a little close to her, he halted. His eyes widened when he behold an arm wrapping around Lifen"s shoulder.
Lifen swatted his arm away, "What are you doing? We are in the school". She glared at him as if he has offended her. Fei Hong was confused looking at their gazes towards each other.
"So what? We have already started dating and it"s not like we are kissing. I can hold you. I want to make everyone realize that you are mine", saying this he s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Fei Hong to give him a summary of his warning to him.
Fei Hong wouldn"t have believed him if he hasn"t witnessed the love in Lifen"s eyes. He wanted to get that gaze of her for himself. He stepped forward, "Congratulations Lifen. I am happy that you got the love of your life. Congratulations to both of you".
Lifen wanted to say something to him but before she could, Deming said in a complacent voice, "Thank you for your wishes, but we are getting late so excuse us". He entwined his fingers with hers and headed towards the cla.s.sroom.
Soon the cla.s.s got over, she was about to ask to Daiyu and Guang for having lunch but again before she could say a word, Deming said "Can I borrow your friend to spend a little time together with her?".
Daiyu said with a amaze look, "Wow, so cute. Why not? She is already all yours. Go ahead". Guang wanted to stop her, but she knows it would be of no use now.
"Daiyu... How could you? Don"t you want to have lunch with me? Sending me with him without giving a second thought, what does this mean? That you don"t love me anymore ", Lifen pouted.
"Ah silly girl, don"t fool me and don"t act so innocent. We both already know that you are more than willing to leave with him", Daiyu squinted her eyes at her, "Now don"t waste your time and leave fast and cla.s.ses are already over for the day. You don"t have to hurry back".
Deming pulled Lifen to him and left the cla.s.sroom. Everyone was awestruck. "Hey, Why are you pulling me?" Lifen said.
"Because after having lunch, we have to head to the office", he lead her to the car and soon drove her out of the campus.
"Hey, how are your employees? Today will be my first day in your office. I am a little nervous ", Lifen said while clasping her hands on the seatbelt.
"What is there to be nervous? You have to be with me not with the others. Why are you thinking about others? Think of the ways to please me", he winked at her.
"You...", Lifen wanted to scold him but was out of words. Seeing her teased face, Deming chuckled.
