Jie Zihan stopped. Facing his back towards her. He knew.... He knew if he saw her face now.... He can't control himself....
"Zi Han...." Suddenly a soft body enveloped his back.... "Zi Han.... I want to tell you something.... I.... I love you.... I love you so much.... " She said in her soft voice. She was trembling...
He turned and looked at her.... He was in disbelief.... He was surprised.... He was happy..... "What.... What did you say..... Please tell me one more time Mingming...." He pleaded...
Tears falling down her eyes.... She confessed again.... "Jie Zihan... I am sorry for using you.... I am sorry for huting you.... I don't know.... I don't know when I fell in love with you.... I just wanted to start a new relationship with you.... So.... So I decided to tell De Longjun to put a stop to my past... I.... It didn't pass my mind that I could hurt your feelings.... I am sorry... I am sorry Jie Zihan.... I love you... I love you a lot..." She sobbed.
"I love you too!! I love you too Chang Mingxia!! I am so happy!!" Jie Zihan hugged her tightly. And he wiped her tears.
Both paused for sometime and chuckled.
"So.... Would you forgive me? Please??" She blushed. "And the hugging part...."
"Shh....! No! No! You don't need to tell me..." Jie Zihan stopped her. "Its okay..... You don't have to explain it to me. I know De Longjun.... And I know you..." He smiled.
"Actually brother Longjun told me to run after you."
"Brother Longjun?! Wow!!"
"Yup! He gave me permission to call him that... like Genji." She smiled. "But only for once. I can never call him that again!!"
Both of them laughed.
Silence.
"Khm!!" Jie Zihan cleared his throat. "So... Can we go to your home?!"
"Okay!!" She nodded. And looked to the ground.
Jie Zihan grabbed her hand.
She looked at him.
"Oh!! Sorry!!" He muttered. "I was just...."
"Oh!! Its okay!!" She looked at both of their hands. "It.... Just feels different now...."
"Oh!! Yeah!! Then should we go now?!" Both of them walked awkwardly to his car. Both grinning from ear to ear.
Both of them sat in the car. "Remember seatbelt." Jie Zihan reminded her.
She nodded.
The car started with the smiling faces of two young couples. For their new life... To a new relationship....

One year later.
"Ha!! Its been seven years since our new boss started working in the office. But I still fear him." An elderly office employee kept the files in his table.
"But how did you jump in front of him? You know nobody faces him. And everyone is praying not to fall under his radar?!" One of his teammates asked.
"Yeah!! How?!"
"Its because of you people!! I went to take the accounting files for all of you!!" He accused them sadly.
"Haa..... Cheer up.... It a truth that even staffs in your age is afraid of him." Someone patted his head.
"Everyone!! Someone knocked the door.
"Mr Li here is the data you needed." A staff came and gave the files to Li Yuehansun, De Longjun's secretary.
"Okay!! The data on the accounting should be sorted out before evening." He instructed.
"Yes. Mr Li!!" They nodded.
"They make us work more..... But what can I say, it's the best company for a job...."
The team members stared at their computer and started their work.
***
"Mr De!! Its the files you needed." Secretary Li knocked the door and opened it.
De Longjun was typing something in his laptop.
Secretary Li kept the files on the table.
"Good." De Longjun shut his laptop and began to check the data.
Secretary Li bowed and left the office room.
Its been four years since Li Yuehansun became the personal assistant of De Longjun. The competition was tough, but he passed it. After all, the De companies are the most paying and staff friendly company of the country. They get enough vacation and enough money. For that people are even worked harder. Its a saying that if a person gets a job in Des, he or she have high probability in marriage.
But being a secretary of a boss like De Longjun.... One should be hardworking and perfect. And Li Yuehansun had proven as an aptful secretary for his boss.
He sometimes overhead the staffs talking among themselves about their boss. They are so afraid of him... But he saw his boss change into a human being only when one person came. Its a girl name Zan Guiying. Among his family members he showed a elder brother or elder son aura, but when he was with miss Zan, he turns normal. Like a normal person. From that day, Secretary Li has been careful around Zan Guiying. She had so much influence on him. He does whatever Zan Guiying tells him to do.
And Secretary Li know his boss didn't have a girlfriend. To his villa, other than his family members the extra one person who is allowed to visit or stay over is Zan Guiying.

His phone pinged. De Longjun looked at it. It was a message from his grandfather. Call me when you get home. It read.
And when he reached home, he called elder De. "Grandpa, did you message to call?!" He asked.
"Yes. I have an important news to share with you."
"What grandpa?!"
"You are going to have a field assignment. And you have to accept the oath of the heir." Elder De instructed him.
"Understood grandpa. When is the date?!"
"The heirs coming of age would be next month. Your invitation will be there within few minutes."
"Understood grandpa."
"Mm... Do your office work. During your assignment days, your father will take over during that period."
"Yes grandpa."
"Good. Do you have anything to tell me more?!"
"No grandpa. Everything is going smoothly."
"Good. Then come home tomorrow. We will discuss about the assignment."
"Okay. I will be there on time."
"Then take care grandson."
"You too. Grandpa." De Longjun hung up the call.
Then his housekeeper aunt Huo knocked the door. "Young master, you have a letter." She said.
"Come inside." He instructed.
She opened the door and gave hime the door and left.
From Fujii Clan..... He read the invitation....
