13 BAI ENTERTAINMENT GALA (2/2)

When Zunnie saw her dad coming to her, she broke into a sweet smile. She kissed him on the check and gave him a tight hug.

”You look handsome, papa.”

”Ahh thank you dear; but pumpkin you are beautiful tonight. You look just like your mom when she your age.” He broke away from the hug to admire the exact replica of his wife.

Zunnie cheeks burned a light pink from her dad's comment. She was glad she came.

”Thanks dad.”

”By the way, did Eyan inform you that a date with you is one of the items up for the auction?”

”He did not. But why would he use me?” She was perplexed.

”Well he thought it would be a good opportunity for the you to find a husband.”

”Daad…no way,” whined a pouting Zunnie.

”Think of it as a good cause pumpkin. After all, the hospital is yours. Helping it should be a priority.” Wan Bai quickly found an excuse for his and Eyan's scheme.

Hearing him mention the hospital, Zunnie groaned inside but still said, ”Fine just this once, for a good cause.”

She deeply hoped that the person who won was not weird or it would be the death of the two men trying to marry her off.

Just as their conversation ended Eyan Bai walked in with his girlfriend.

”Eyan, please remind me after this, to kill you slowly.”

”I guess dad sold us out…Dad I always knew you couldn't keep a secret.” Eyan replied sounding disappointed.

He hoped Zunnie wouldn't hold this decision against him, because he wanted her to have a good time. Maybe the person she meets will be good for her.

”Don't blame me, I'm just looking out for my dear pumpkin,” Mr. Bai raised his hand to surrender.

The four of them chatted for a few minutes, then moved to the entrance to greet the guests.

When Alex arrived at the event hall, almost everyone was seated. He found his table with his family, Juno and Hunter and sat down. His eyes scanned the room to see exactly where she was.

He needed to find a way to introduce himself tonight.
