Lee Jun Ting drives up and park his car smoothly. Zhou Qin Yang gaped at the restaurant Jun Ting brought her to " Is-isn't this Yabiru?"
Jun Ting just glance at her as if this is normal " Yeah. What about it?"
Qin Yang just look at him in disbelief. Yabiru was named after the Paekche Dynasty and serves the finest Korea cuisine in the entire S city! She always forget how rich Lee Jun Ting is. Back then in high school, he never flaunts his money but whenever both of them is out on a meal, he would always treat her. Zhou Qin Yang tries to treat him before but he never let her touch her wallet.
Qin Yang follows him from behind. The waitress greet both of them " Mr Lee, Miss Zhou. The table you reserve is upstairs. Please follow me. "
Zhou Qin Yang felt pretty small at this place. There were many high social elites and celebrities dining this place, she lowers her head to avoid being ashamed to Jun Ting. Many ladies notice Lee Jun Ting as they walk past them to head to the private room.
Suddenly, someone stop their path. Qin Yang didn't look up but judging from the person's shoes. This person is definitely filthy rich. " Lee Jun Ting, you are here ! Are you here to eat dinner?" the person use a cutesy voice to flirt. It disgusted Qin Yang for a moment because of the fake tone.
Qin Yang accidentally blurted out without looking up" No. We are here to wash plates. Why else would you think we here for?"
Zhou Qin Yang immediately close her mouth with her hands, she curse in her heart for not filtering. The woman clearly got offended " Who are you to talk to me like that? How dare you speak to me like that? Qin Yang you can't let this off !"
Qin Yang knew she had to apologise so that she doesn't get into a dumbass argument with this brainless lady. Before she knew it , Jun Ting spoke up " Who are you? "
One sentence the woman shuts up, her heart shattered. How can he not know her? They spoke before at a party. She fake a laugh " You might not remember. I'm Choi Siyeon, we met at the party last month. "
" I don't interact with brainless people" Jun Ting grabs Qin Yang's hand and walk past the woman like she is some trash. Once they were in the private room , Qin Yang glance at Jun Ting. She felt guilty to cause him trouble " Sorry for just now..You know it's my habit.. I will control my mouth better next time"
" No. I did be surprise if you didn't speak out." Lee Jun Ting smile. He was about to laugh at her comment back there but he kept his cool. " I like it when you use that sharp tongue of yours. I missed it"
'Is this guy trying to flirt with me ? Not funny cause my heart can't take it.' she look down her skirt.
" I ordered all your favourite food. " Jun Ting put his phone down. Zhou Qin Yang wasn't paying attention because she was staring at Jun Ting. She is taking in the changes around him. His aura is different. In the office, the directors seem to be intimated by him because he looks cold and distant but here he is so warm.
" Like what you are looking?" he teases her. Qin Yang snapped back to reality and glare at him " I have seen better looking men"
Jun Ting's gaze turn cold and raise his eyebrows " Tell me who then? I would like to know." Jun Ting is aware his looks attract many suitors but he doesn't care as long as he has Zhou Qin Yang by his side. " Why would I tell you? You definitely will bully them"
" What makes you think so?"
" You have money."
" Fair point."
Neither one of them dare to ask each other how is their life for the past 7 years, even though they were suppose to catch up. Lee Jun Ting kept teasing her and Zhou Qin Yang has to put up with it. When the food arrive, Qin Yang's eyes shine like she found a treasure chest full with gold coins. Jun Ting place food one by one on her plate to make sure she doesn't starve on the other hand , Qin Yang kept stuffing food in her mouth.
Lee Jun Ting knew something wasn't right when she suddenly left. He decided to just wait till she is ready to tell him herself. Throughout the whole meal, Qin Yang was relieved that Jun Ting didn't ask anything about why she left. Deep in her heart, she wanted to tell him so badly but she is afraid how he would see her as. She only told one person so far about her past which is Luciel.
Jun Ting opens the passenger car door like a gentleman for Qin Yang " I will send you home."
" It's fine. I can call a taxi to send me home." she refuse the offer because he already paid for the meal.
Jun Ting look at her with a devious smile " I will carry you bridal style and throw you in the car if you don't listen"
She tries to put her foot down with him"You don't even know where my house is"
" I have a GPS. Just type in your address" he answer coolly. Once again, she didn't have a choice and enter in the car.
