He didn't utter a word but just gestured a maid to call Yunxi...
Mia dragged herself lazily and when she saw Su Mingzhu she shouted exuberantly...
"Mingming..." She jumped like a kangaroo from the stairs and hugged her tightly...
She tugged her hand and dragged her to the couch where an aloof wolf was preying her actions...
"She is my friend... An old school friend..."
She said and he just nodded...
"Omg, when did Mingming the giant panda, turn into a good looking Swam..." She soon started the besties talks...
"Ahh, all thanks to my manager..." She sighed...
"Oh yeah, how is your career going on... I scrolled through news, you are the goddess of the industry now..."
Mingzhu giggled and said,
"You are the married woman now... And yeah a 24 year old wife..."
Mia frowned and gave a consequential look... She just nodded realizing to not mix up Mia and Yunxi...
They continued to bicker for sometime when a man entered the hall...
"What are you doing here?"
Su Mingzhu and Mo Yongzhi said in unison...
Mia looked curiously at the couple...
"I am here to meet my boss..." Yongzhi said while showing the files in cloak of her face...
"So I am, to meet my friend..." Mingzhu said while sitting back and tugging Mia's shoulder...
"Do you know him?" Mia asked all curious...
"He is my boyfriend..." She declared boldly...
Yongzhi coughed at her words and she again amended herself,
"Sorry, he is my ex-boyfriend..."
While giving a meaningful glance at him she continued,
"We broke two days back... So we are strangers now... Right, Mister???"
He just turned his gaze to the man sitting all calm with no expression on his face...
"Sir, the meeting is scheduled in an hour..."
Xian nodded and took his coat...
He turned towards Mia who knew what he exactly wanted to do so she just stepped back a little...
"Oh, by the way, you said you wanted to treat Mr.Mo for dinner right? Why don't we go to a restaurant, today? Even my friend is here, we can have some fun..."
Mia said while smiling widely...
"Huh?" This was the only reaction he could give as what she said was never a topic they ever discussed...
"Hmm, ok... It's decided then... I will select a restaurant and send you details..."
He later understood whatsshe was trying to do, so without any other option left, nodded his head and left the place with tailing Mo Yongzhi behind...
"Care to explain?" Mingzhu asked with a raised brow...
"It's been years I didn't irritate you..." She shrugged her shoulders while grinning and dragged her to her room...
Once she finally locked the door, Mingzhu sighed and said,
"Ahh, Mia..."
Mia went and hugged her by sideways... Resting her head on her bestie's shoulder, she said,
"It's been more than 5 years we didn't see each other..."
"Sigh, I was also busy in my work that I literally, "
"It's not you alone... I was busy too enjoying that fake love and care and my world only revovled around them except..."
"I met sunny yesterday and she said everything..."
She nodded and hugged her tightly...
"I thought of meeting at your space station... But I couldn't control myself..."
"I don't know what to do right now..." Mia said thinking about the plan which sure was waste after yesterday's failure.
"You are at least handling everything perfectly... If I was you I would have died once again..." She laughed but later facepalmed herself...
"I am sorry..." She said seeing that darkened expression on Mia's face...
"I heard that no one was allowed to enter my funeral..."
"Yeah, that bitch Mei stopped me from entering... I wanted to just kill every single member of your family... I knew they were acting since the day your mother died..."
"Sigh, only if I could have seen through those masks..."
Mingzhu sighed and said,
"Past is past... Leave now..."
"Yup... Tell me, how is your work going on??? I have been following every news of yours which would go wild on the net, you know..." She giggled with a firm proudness...
"My manager is so strict... I can't even go and walk around as we did in the past... If I just go out, the cameras and my fans surround me like the waves of the ocean..."
She chuckled hearing her stressed tone and said,
"Someone was there to at least trouble you in my absence..."
"Yeah yeah, it's all fun for you..." She pouted...
"Mingming the superstar, don't worry... I will surely plan out something to kidnap you from that stringent manager of yours..."
"Ahhh, here comes the sweet talker..." Mingzhu commented...
They bantered, quarrelled and did the pillow fight, experiencing those olden days again...
Once done with the fight, they both fell on the bed...
Mingzhu turned towards Mia and smiled sheepishly,
"Tell me... How is your relationship status??"
"Ohh... Yeah, tell me how is your status??"
Mia being Mia backfired the question...
"Idiot, I am asking about you... About your relationship with your charming husband..."
"Yes, I am asking about your relationship with your ex-boyfriend..."
Mingzhu sighed and laid back while looking at the beautiful pop of the ceiling...
"Seems like you still are the same dumb with zero knowledge about relationships..."
"See who is ta heckling me... The one who whipped the boy who just gave me a letter..."
Mingzhu chuckled remembering those olden school days...
"That was because it had been long I didn't beat anyone..."
"I miss those days, Mingming..." She said while hugging the pillow...
"Same here, remember the slogan which people used to chant the minute we entered the campus..."
"Miming the pranksters, Miming the gangsters..." They both said in unison with a huge grin...
"We surely ruled the school..."
"And yeah also were the naughtiest kids for sure..."
They both recalled all those mischievous things they did together in school not to leave the arrogant and fierce Mia's brutal wrath...
...
It was around evening, when Xian came back only to find two pretty ladies waiting for him to pick them...
His eyes never gave a glance towards our actress as they were busy devouring each and every part of Mia's body...
"We are ready... Let's go..." She said and with a huge sigh, he followed them behind...
She was wearing a short floral dress matching with a pair of pink sneakers... She was sure going to flatter men's heart while walking with her hairs rhythmically dancing with her stroll...
"Ahh, your husband is too aloof..." She said in her ears while entering the car as he didn't even glance at her charming dress...
"Is it???" Mia was slightly confused as she never saw that side... All she saw was that delicate care...
"Sigh, leave how could you even witness under those sweet gestures and tender care..."
....
Once they reached the restaurant, Mia appealed him for an outdoor dinner and he couldn't ignore it...
As soon as she entered the top floor, she ran outside and breathed that cool breeze...
He went and placed his coat over her...
"It's cold... Stay warm..." She nodded and soon all four seated down...
His gestures were so different that both the ex-lovers wanted to just pinch him and see was it really him, the cold and aloof CEO?
(Yup, he is same as every other ML in stories I won't deny it; Author wink's.)
...
"I didn't properly introduce right??" She said while looking at Xian and Mingzhu...
"This is Su Mingzhu... One of my closest friend childhood... You both never met as she was too busy at that time in building her career..."
He just nodded and continued sipping his juice...
"Mingming, this is Xian..."
"Ahh, you don't need to introduce... Who doesn't know the great CEO..."
She said while widely grinning but he didn't reply to her, not even glanced at her...
"Mingming??? The giant panda???" Mo Yongzhi asked with a surprised look...
"Yeah, she was as giant as that panda in the past..." She giggled seeing that annoying glare on Mingzhu's face...
"Why did you both break up, by the way?" She asked making Yongzhi cough a little...
"He hates seeing me with another man!!!" Mingzhu boldly said while piercing her fork deep inside the prawn...
"Huh???" Mia asked a little astonished...
"He doesn't like me to act..." She said while piercing deeper...
"Okay okay, I get it but at least don't kill that already simmered prawn with your fork..." Mia commented controlling that delirious laugh...
Few minutes passed and it was only Mia who kept asking questions and Mingzhu answering each question with a murderous glare... She knew this Mia the troublemaker was literally enjoying her dilemma...
Mia was trying to peel her prawn which appeared a little hard...
Xian shook his head and said,
"As clumsy as ever..."
"I am not..." She said while attempting to not be clumsy with her peeling work but she sure looked cute and clumsy...
He took the prawn while shaking his head at her stubbornness and neatly peeled it... Once satisfied with his perfect peel, he placed it back...
She just smiled and ate all satisfactorily...
"Aww... I so wish I had such a doting and loving husband beside me..." She said and Yongzi all most coughed gulped the big piece of prawn...
Mia smirked seeing that 'mockery Mingming' of olden days...
"You have a man beside you... You can ask him if he wants to be your husband..."
Both coughed out loud hearing her words and Xian looked at her and shook his head with a smile...
Mingzhu was definitely having much trouble and Yongzhi just wanted to run away and hide from this spirited Madam... She was sure, throwing small missiles from time to time...
Mingzhu just ate silently and only Mia knew that her mind was running to battle against her and she sure was a little worried about it as this bomb would surely be related to Xian...
"Ohh, Yeah by the way... President Yang, your wife was really the nastiest, scariest, fiercest and arrogant kid... "
He just looked at her and smiled...
"But yeah, as years passed she became silent, innocent and cute type..." Mingzhu blattered this out so as to not to create any confusion of Yunxi being Mia...
"I am sure she might be all cute and innocent in front of you... This happens only when she likes someone... She sure was a cute innocent lady in front of you, I think... By the way, I never met you in childhood days..." She said so many things at just one go to not to give any hints of Mia being Yunxi...
Mia was already smacking her in head seeing this silly act of covering the truth...
"I and Yunxi never met much in childhood days... Only had few talks in some banquets..." He finally said something...
"Ohh... Yeah, she used to talk about you... When I went abroad I think you both realised your true feelings..."
He just nodded and wiped his mouth...
Few minutes passed and Mingzhu threw another dangerous bomb...
"She is really naughty... Is she the same on the bed too?"
Mia started to cough out loud with a face as red as a tomato...
Yongzhi's fork fell to the ground in surprise but that aloof man was calm, as calm as a lake...
