Next day early in the morning, even before the sunrise, three people were sitting in the study room. The atmosphere in the study room was silent and gloomy. Mr. Zhi was looking at Zhi Xin while waiting him to speak, while Mrs. Zhi was preparing tea for all of them.
Time passed by, just when everyone thought Zhi Xin won't say anything he dropped a sentence, " I have decided that Ruoruo's engagement should be called off"
Hearing the words that came out of his elder son's mouth, Mr. Zhi got angry and kicked the chair that Zhi Xin was sitting on.
*pak *patak *pak*
As soon as he spoke the words Zhi Xin expected his father to lash out and was already prepared for something like this to happen. Thus, when Mr. Zhi kicked the chair he elegantly got up from the chair preventing him flying off with the chair and crashing with something.
The chair went back and crashed with the wall of study room while Zhi Xin was standing in front of his father as firm as a mountain.
Looking at the father and son standing against each other Mother Zhi Sighed. In the whole room it was only her who was calm and looked at her son for explanation. Mrs. Zhi was a very smart women and someone who knew Zhi Xin very well.
Zhi Xin was very smart since childhood and he was very protective of his family as well. Mrs. Zhi knew how much he pampered ruoruo. It was to the extent that once when Zhi Ruo said she wants her birthday cake made by her brother he worked on completing her wishes without any second thought. The boy whose feet never entered kitchen prepared his sister's favorite birthday cake for more than 10,000 people by himself alone without anyone's help within 24 hours.
Zhi Xin calmly walked towards the floor to ceiling window with his hands tucked in his pocket. Looking at the son who grew taller than him and always made right decisions, Mr. Zhi knew there's something that he doesn't know. Calming down a little Mr. Zhi asked his son to spill the beans.
" I will tell you but you have to promise me that no matter what you will control your emotions. I don't want ruoruo to feel guilty." said Zhi Xin before answering anything.
When father Zhi nodded Zhi Xin started telling him what he heard from Zhi ruo last night.
last afternoon Zhi Ruo was reading some comics and was prepared to take her afternoon nap as usual, when she received a call from Su Ye, her fiancee. Su ye asked her to go on a dinner date and also asked her to wear dress that he has sent her as her 18th birthday gift.
Su Ye and Zhi Ruo were neighbors since 12 years and Su Ye was a transfer student who had no friends hence Zhi Ruo was his first friend in school. Soon the Su family and the Zhi family started dealing in terms of business increasing their friendship.
Zhi Ruo was a cheerful girl but she used to have very selective people in her circle of friends and almost no boy was present in her circle of friends. Looking at how Zhi Ruo and Su Ye got along they were deemed as a couple by the whole school. Considering the situation Su Ye also decided to start dating Zhi Ruo after-all who wouldn't want to date a beautiful girl.
