Chapter 185 - Order you some dinner (2/2)

Again the next day and at the same time, Lena came over to Kris' office and brought him dinner. This time, she made dinner for only him. She made his a good variety of meat dishes and a few side dishes of vegetables. She also brought over warm soup and a homemade sweet tea drink.

As usual, she did not stay over and left after she brought them.

The next day, Lena went to work as normal. It was the start of her 72 hours strike on Kris. She already purchased the perfect outfit to ask the man out and the perfect excuse to lure him. Lena had waited for her entire past original life, whatever the correct term is now, waiting for a man to ask her out, so she was not going to do that again.

They live in a modern growing society where women ask men out and propose to them, so Lena was confident enough.

Lena walked into her office and saw a vase of red and pink roses on her desk. ”Diane, why are there flowers in my office?”

”They are from me.”

Lena turned around and spotted a handsome man on her doorway. He was cunningly hiding there so she would no see him when she walked in.

”Ming Zhao.”

”Hello! Do you like them?”

”They are pretty, but what are you going here?”

”I think two weeks is long enough to start pursuing you now. Did the flowers make you fall in love with me yet?”

Lena shook her head. ”No... not even 1%.”

Ming walked closer to her. ”Well, I will still send you flowers every day.” He smiled.

”I don't think that is how it works.”

”Ah... but we are still on for our date tomorrow, right? I'll turn that not even 1% to 50% tomorrow. See you then, my fiance.” He winked at her and left.

Lena stared at the vase of roses. If Ming brings her flower every day, it won't work on her... but isn't she kind of doing the same thing with Kris.... bringing him food every day. Would that not work on him?

Lena was doubting her plans a bit but then shrugged. No one should be able to deny her food. Her food is not her singing.

That night, Lena left work at her normal time and went home.

On the hand, Kris had not eaten all day, expecting another great dinner from Lena. He waited and waited.

”Do you want me to order you some dinner?” Collin asked.

Kris shook his head and looked at the clock. It was just 7 p.m. ”Maybe she's just late today.”

A few hours past and Lena did not show up. Collin knocked on the door again. ”Do you want me to order you dinner now? She never said yesterday she was coming today again.”

Kris threw his entire cup of pens at the door and Collin left. Collin did not know if he was angry because he was hungry or because Lena did not bring him any food today. Collin decided to not tell him about the roses that got delivered to Lena today... he still wants to live.

Kris texted Lena but she did not reply back.

”ARGH!” He slammed his head on his desk a few times. ”Why are women so strange!”

His phone got a ding and he quickly looked at it. But it was just Collin sending a text.

Collin: Do you want me to order your dinner yet?

He slammed his head back on his desk.
