"Thank goodness I escaped from that little witch!" Linx muttered to himself as he took off his jacket in the living room, the whole time not noticing Minde who was on his laptop looking downcast.
"And who's this witch that can make a ghost like you look so scared?" Minde asked still busy on his laptop. At the mention of "ghost" Linx smiled sheepishly into space, thoughts of that evening with Dana flowed through his mind Minde on the other hand mentally hit himself, reminding himself that he had to keep all thoughts of Dana out of his head, it's been just a week since he got to know her minus the time he saved her at the San Yui's party and yet he's gotten some of her attributes stuck in his head, only Dana called Linx an annoyance ghost and now he had unconsciously called Linx that.
"Dana's friend...arghh she's so annoying!?" Linx said hitting the air.
"Oh sorry I forgot you don't know who Dana is to begin with..." Linx added, giving Minde the franchise to act clueless..
"Um yh...so who's she to you? This Dana.." Minde asked while trying to feign disinterest in the topic.
"She's my PA" Linx said smiling like a kid that was given candy for the first time.
"You address your PA casually? And why that silly shy smile, you like...her??" Minde asked curiously although trying to act naturally. On hearing Minde's words Linx literally yelled out
"Hah! Me like that annoying cute... pretty... little bundle of annoying-ness if that's even a word" Linx scoffed not until his brain registered that he had just called Zheng Dana cute! What going on with him for goodness sake! Noticing Minde's weird look he tried to talk his way out of it. "I mean that annoying pain in the arse! " He said blinking nervously.
Minde just stared at Linx rumble on nervously as a sad realization that Linx liked Dana...and from the look of things few hours back Dana most likely feels same towards him which he would be happy and concerned about his brother who he had never seen act the way he did over a girl but now he was feeling too sad, and why that was he couldn't tell... Probably cause Dana was with Linx tonight and they seemed so close? Or was it that they two liked each other and he was left hanging...? Maybe he was just scared of the way he felt towards her, and didn't want to be in a love triangle between he, his jnr brother and a girl they'd just met. Damn! This is confusing Minde whispered to himself as he watched Linx happily climb up the stairs singing one of his romantic hit songs Linx looked so... happy and he wouldn't want to snatch that away so he would just have to stay away from Dana, no more seeing her or Calling her, or texts...it would be best for everyone especially him.
A beep on his phone brought him back to reality as he saw the documents sent to him he quickly composed himself returning to the strict busy CEO he was. In less than four hours his men had dug out information on who HU Chaoxiang was.
"Hu Chaoxiang
Age - 27years
Job- unemployed
Recent known ex girlfriends- Gu Xixi, Ah Lam.
Education- Bejing university, Imperial high school.
Father- Hu Lee-61yr-lawyer
Mother- Hu Sara-pharmacist
Siblings- two sisters
His information was generally boring but one thing stood out "Gu Xixi" that was the connection he was likely to have with Dana, the document was not well arranged and so when a text popped in from his secretary he decided to leave it for tomorrow, apparently they were still digging out stuff about him and had just sent a little background scan about Hu Chaoxiang.
Linx was about to retire to bed when he saw a text from a least expected person, opening it and hoping for the absolute worst which it was "mum- I'll be in town next week I want to see you at home by then! " Linx didn't know when he screamed out loud which attracted Minde who had a tooth brush in his mouth rushing over to his bed room.
"What's it bro? Why are you screaming? "Minde asked concerned as he watch Linx sob into a pillow.
"It's mom... She'll be in town soon
....ahh my chest... she's coming back to torment my life..." Linx wailed dramatically causing Minde who had thought something bad had happened to sigh.
"So? Is that why you're acting up? " Minde asked with a smirk.
"I'm not acting! She's going to torment my life, ask me yo join the company or else she'll kidnap Yan Yan (his piano) like she did last time" Linx purted like a three year old, any of the thousands of people that adored him seeing him right now won't believe his the same arrogant sharp tongued idol who never so much as spared anyone more than four words but here he was throwing a tantrum that Minde was so used to the only thing he could do was sigh at his kid brother's childishness.
"Then run away if you don't want to see her" Minde said nonchalantly to Linx who's face was now buried in a pillow as he turned around to leave.
"Oh good heavens you're really a genius, although ur EQ is low your IQ's mind blowing no wonder you're the one and only CEO Minde! " Linx said grinning widely at a perplexed looking Minde who just shook his head before finally Walking out.
Minde had just saved him, travelling would be such a great idea, if he lied to his mom that he had a shoot or something his mom would just call the president Li and pay for the looses the company would inquire if he doesn't show up just so he won't have an excuse to come home but if he travelled a week earlier than he had planned to Korea his mom won't do anything right, not like she couldn't but she was business minded and took foreign relations quite seriously even if the business wasn't her's she was quite considerate on that and with president Li been her friend she wouldn't stop Linx from going so yeah it was a very solid plan and Minde had just helped he solve his problem.
Immediately he phoned Desiree who sounded like he had been asleep for two hundred years.
Ignoring Desiree's words Linx went straight to the point.
"Tell President Li Fu that I'll be traveling on the initially scheduled date.
"Huh?" Desiree said finally coming to reality and realizing he had just called Linx a punk and annoying arse seconds ago thinking that he was in a dream or something. Before he could compose himself Linx hung up leaving him to wonder how he was going to explain that to Linx or why he suddenly wanted to go a week earlier since he had kicked against it before.
