"No big deal at all. I... I just wanted to wait for you. " he said to her and Zhou Sheng just smiled as they walked up to the roof were everyone was gathered.
"Lian Wen... Zhuge Xing... you two are together? " Yu Lan asked looking at the two.
"Oh no, don't take it the wrong way. I just happened to meet him on his way here. " Zhou Sheng said and Yu Lan nodded slowly before pulling her away with Xun Yujin.
"Come, I want to introduce you to some friends of mine and show you off just a bit. " she said but Zhou Sheng slowly pulled her hand away looking at her with pleading eyes.
"Please understand and let me go early. It's getting late and it's improper for me to stay out late. " she said to her and Xun Yujin looked at her phone checking the time.
"It's only eight thirty four, it's not even time for my daughter to sleep. Did your mother set this kind of curfew for you? " she asked her and Zhou Sheng laughed looking at her.
"My mom is actually no more, so is my dad. The guardian in charge of me is the one who set the curfew for me. " she said and they both looked at each other and before looking back at her.
"She seems strict. I won't keep you here long then. I'll see you around then. " Yu Lan said to her and Zhou Sheng nodded before leaving as Zhuge Xing kept looking at her.
"Even someone as independent as her is still controlled. Seems like in this world everyone has a master. " Yu Lan said and then spotted Zhuge Xing still looking at the direction she left in.
"Even you're feeling sorry for her aren't you? Come on, I'm sure she'll be fine. " she said taking his arm as they both walked through the crowd earning their respects.

"Song Mimi, I'm back! " she yelled throwing the heels off her feet and then slammed her body on the couch next to her with a huge sigh of relief.
"Here, have some tea. It will calm your nerves down. " she said to her but she refused as her face changed back to hers.
"I don't drink tea, it's disgusting for me. " she said s Mimi placed it in her hand.
"There's lemon in it. It won't taste soo bad after you try it. " she said and Zhou Sheng sat up taking a sip of it and then looked at her.
"Don't ask, Luoluo also hates tea. " she said and Zhou Sheng nodded placing the cup down as she looked at the table with the organized papers.
"What are those?" she asked taking a closer look.
"The papers for the skyscraper I got to set up my headquarters for M&M Jewels and also a place to set up my new clothing and textiles business. " she said to her and then turned to her again.
"You're going back to Bangkok, something happened at Black Cosmetics. Li Yan will come back here to cover up for you." she said to her and Zhou Sheng finally got serious.
"What happened? " she asked her.
"Your production is getting low and you need to go have a look. After all, a company can't do without it's CEO for that long. You're heading back tomorrow. I also have to be at the building tomorrow. I need to check the furnitures they're using." she said to her.
"Really? I thought you sent the cars for servicing?" she asked her.
"There are other sources of transportation aren't there? " she asked her getting back to her work.
"You're going alone also? Why don't I go another day and go with you to check the building tomorrow? " she asked her but Song Mimi didn't even mind her. Knowing she would never agree, Zhou Sheng got up and went back to her room.

"Mrs Song, you're here. Just so you know, we're soo glad you could make it today. I'm the head manger in charge of all interior decor concerning our company and the boss asked me to especially assist you today. " he said to her as Mimi took off her shades.
"Why then are you talking soo much then? After we're done here, I want to check out some of your already built shops. I want more shops here in Beijing since I'm setting my headquarters here. " she said to her and someone covered her eyes and she held his hand about to break it.
"Wait, wait... what do you think you're doing?" he asked her and Mimi looked at his hand letting go.
"What are you doing? Can't you at least behave in a public place like this? " Mimi asked as she looked around at the security and the manager dismissed them right away.
"Juhan what are you even doing here? " she asked him as a mischievous grin formed on his face.
"I also happened to be here to build a house." he said to her and she looked at him speechless.
"Build a house...? That's your reasonable excuse? " she asked him.
"Fine then, I followed you. I also noticed Zhou Sheng leaving today. " he said to her and Mimi looked at him shocked and then laughed hysterically to shake it off.
"Have... have you been... stalking me? " she asked him and he smiled as she stood there looking at him completely shocked and then threw her bag at him.
"Since you like following me that much... be my bodyguard for the day then. " she said to him and he looked at her surprised a bit before smiling.
"I'll be your bodyguard for the day then... hell, I'll be your bodyguard for the rest of my life if I get to be this close to you. " he said seductively to her and she looked at him as she could definitely feel rising anger and turned right away.
"Lead the way then. Don't pay much attention to him. " she said with an awkward smile and the manager also smiled awkwardly before leading the way.
