Chapter 38 Pe (1/2)

As AnLing walked around doing the odd jobs Manager Hong requested of her, Liang Ke followed a couple steps behind her.

She began to feel like she had gotten a pet dog…

Every so often Liang Ke would try to make conversation but AnLing would ignore him. She was pretty annoyed that he was following her around, in the first place.

Had he forgotten his image?

He was an artist. What was he doing following a small assistant around?

Several times AnLing tried to lose him but to no avail. The man was super persistent. Lucky for her that he wore a baseball cap and he had put on a mask when he exited the shop or else they would have both been in trouble.

Though, her more than him...

By his happy-go-lucky demeanor, AnLing could tell that this man hadn't faced a single hardship in his entire life. She hadn't met a person like this in a long time and it was like a breath of fresh air but also a big shock.

The entertainment industry was a dark place. Even she, who was fairly new to the industry there, had seen things that made her doubt the humanity of some of these so-called stars. Yet how did Liang Ke end up staying so bright and pure?

Seeing that AnLing didn't protest much to his presence anymore, he took it a step further.

”Can I have your number?”He asked using the most charming smile he had.

The abrupt question caused AnLing's to turn to look at him with eyes wide.

”No!”

At the office, Kang Jun was working. He had just finished up a meeting. Kang Corporation had encountered some stressful times The project which they had had problems with previously had completely fallen through and being the boss, Kang Jun had no choice but to fix everything.

Within a small amount of time, he had been able to reduce the impact on the company. Though, it would take him a few weeks to fully finalize it.

Kang Jun was tired.

He wanted to lay back and sleep but he knew that it wouldn't help him regain his vigor so he picked up his phone and texted AnLing.

At the moment, he had no idea that a bug had approached her neither did he know the hard time she was having trying to shoo him away.

Kang Jun: [Were still going out tomorrow?]

After a few minutes, she replied. AnLing: [Yes]

Kang Jun: [ Where do you want to go?]

AnLing: [Let Mingyu chose.]

Reading that message, Kang Jun smirked. He wouldn't do that. Instead, he had a better idea. He wanted to surprise them both with something special.

He called for Mr. Long before replying to AnLing.

Kang Jun: [I'll pick you up at 7 tomorrow. It's a date then. I'm looking forward to it.]

Kang Jun purposely wrote more than usual.

He didn't receive another message after that. He knew that it would be like that because she was probably embarrassed by his message.

He was beginning to get used to all of AnLing's quirks.

With nothing else left to do, Kang Jun grabbed some documents and looked at them with hawk-like accuracy. He scanned them and scanned them until something caught his eye.

Mr. Long entered the room. ”You called?”

”Mmm... Book Rainbow Valley for three. Tomorrow night,” he said, not even lifting his eyes from the documents. His expression was cold, but his eyebrows furrowed slightly giving off an expression of anger.

Mr. Long's face turned pale. ”R-r-rainbow Valley…?”

”Did I stutter?”

'No I did!' Mr. Long felt a strong headache coming along.

”Sir, that place needs to be booked months in advance!” Mr. Long tried his best to keep his voice calm and strong but it didn't work. The questioning seeped through slapping him in the face.

Kang Jun put down the documents and then stared at Mr. Long unflinching. His cold gaze made Mr. Long feel small. Despite being older than him Mr. Long felt lower than Kang Jun; like a slave or sometimes even a pet.
