82 Embarrassmen (1/2)

Hours later…

Suzuki Kyou was leading Han Jie out of their hotel suite. He entered the hotel's ballroom from a different door holding Han Jie by the waist. The ballroom had been decorated in a more romantic way than Han Jie thought a business party would look like. Suzuki Kyou led her to a podium in front of the ballroom, drawing the attention of the guests one by one until they were all staring at them. Han Jie felt self-conscious in her shoes.

”Most of you wonder why this party was organized,” Suzuki Kyou started not even bothering with greeting the guests. ”It is not just to celebrate a merger, but my engagement to the woman I have been waiting for all along, the woman of my dreams. Han Mei.” He said with the bright smile on his face.

People were clapping, but all Han Jie could hear was Suzuki Kyou calling her, well not really, the woman of his dreams. It felt romantic and strange at the same time. She felt like the choice of his words was meant more than just an act. It gives her the impression that Han Mei and Suzuki Kyou had met before.

Nevertheless, Han Jie tried her best to place all her questions at the back of her head and tried her best to focus on the crowd in front of them. She needed to act as her sister that night perfectly.

People were cheering for the couple inside the hotel ballroom. However, outside the hotel, there are those that don't want a terrorist to bomb the hotel or a catastrophe to suddenly take place just to stop the engagement.

Wang Jin was inside her car, her hand white as she clenched them on her car's steering wheel. She could not believe that not only Suzuki Kyou still refused to acknowledge her feelings. Aside from that, he had the audacity to call her father to deal with her.

He could still remember what happened the night before…

***

Wang Jin was still talking to Chua Christina, and she was really looking forward to digging more information from him as much as she can. So she listened intently.

”Smart girl not asking Han Mei, she and her daddy disapprove, but that doesn't stop my Han Jie from doing the things she loves the most.” Chua Christina began. ”She is an artist, a manga artist. The special type. And lucky for you she just lost her publicist. So I'll let you write up stuff for her social media accounts to promote her work. It is entry-level, but it pays well.” Chua Christina finished.

”No problem miss, I'll take anything at this point.” Wang Jin said grinning at her reflection on the wall to floor window. She will be directly working for Han Jie that seemed to hide her own work? Isn't that a very favorable setup?

”Good I'll text you my email address. You'll send me your first stuff, and I'll email you back if I like it enough to pay for it. Okay?”

”That's fine, miss. Thank you so much.” Wang Jin said she almost tap dancing to get her laptop.

Wang Jin grinned at her phone. This was better than the invitation to the party. This was information against Han Mei - no - Jie on a platter of gold.

Wang Jin knew what she was going to do, and she was going to wow the hell out of Chua Christina. The woman was not just going to be her informant, Chua Christina was about to be Wang Jin's very own contact.

She was still in a good mood because of this, and it would be better if Suzuki Kyou would be back soon and want her. Wang Jin could not help but giggle.

Even though she tells other people secretly that he is gay, that was actually not true. He never confirmed it, but there was no use guessing.

Why not? He was with her before, and then her brother seduced him. If her brother did not look like a girl, would Suzuki Kyou bother?

Because of this, she was sure that there was still a chance for her.

Wang Jin was giggling when she noticed the light coming from the car headlight passed by the window. She hurriedly went out of his room and surprised him.

Just like before, the house staff had let her in, and because of the 'gifts' she sent out, Wang Jin was sure that they wouldn't bother with her until Suzuki Kyou got home.

She was waiting in the living room patiently, and when he came in. However, he was sad with someone else, her father.

***

Wang Jin could still remember it clearly, and it was the biggest embarrassment of her life.

When they left Suzuki Kyou's house, her father could not stop yelling at her. It was also embarrassing for him.

She could not blame her father. The bad history with her brother and Suzuki Kyou was already embarrassing enough, and now his only daughter was trying to seduce him as well. It was so obvious by just looking at what she was wearing.

Aside from that, she was forbidden to go to the engagement party or get close to Suzuki Kyou and Han Mei.

Wang Jin felt like crying. Her only comfort was that she already managed to get close to Han Jie, and being around Han Mei was would not be a big issue.
