Rather than sending texts like 'I miss you', 'I love you', they send poems and sophisticated sayings to each other.

They are just like two peas in a pod, perfectly matched for each other.

​​

The longest time they have spent without communication is one year until they met the next Christmas when they reunited like the lovely but boring couple they are.

"I really wonder what your marriage products will be like," Jia Yu remarked

"Certainly not like you," Meng Yao responded with her eyes fixed on her food and maintaining her signature indifference whenever she throws back words like that, they all wanted to burst into laughter but to prevent Jia Yu from wanting to win this conversation or garnering attention, they held it in.

"Good one," she remarked with a nod saying 'I will definitely remember this one'.

After getting the reaction she wanted, she then smiled and placed her palms together to beg for mercy from Jia Yu who certainly holds grudges.

"Did Li Chen and An Ke change their shifts, how come they are not here together?" Ji Chen asked after looking around the canteen for them in case they had an early lunch.

"They...they are sorting out what they should be sorting out," Yu Yan answered in a downcast tone after remembering what Li Chen looked like last night, she now asked herself if she made the right decision in letting the source of the problem take care of the problem.

She sighed!

"That's right, they do have many things to sort out,"

They intentionally didn't say much about it so they just let the topic drop, meanwhile, Jia Yu found it as an opportunity to speak about Han Chen's proposal.

"Brother, when were you going to tell us that you proposed to Yu Yan?" Jia Yu questioned, grabbing Yu Yan's hand then raising it up for them to see the ring on her finger, their eyes widened looking at the ring.

Although the ring looks simple, being high classed people, they understood the worth of that ring which was popular several years ago when it was announced to the world that the Han Couple were engaged.

The ring definitely costs several million dollars.

"Yu Yan, when did this happen?!" Meng Yao exclaimed as Yu Yan pulled her hand out of Jia Yu's grip then gave her a scolding glance.

"Not long ago," she answered as she shyly brushed the locks of her on her face behind her ear while Han Chen lowered his gaze with a smile.

"Brother-in-law, you are really amazing, you guys haven't dated for even a month yet you are already engaged, does mother-in-law knows about this?" Ji Chen questioned hoping they don't end up getting caught like he and Jia Yu got caught.

Han Chen awkwardly itched his hair with an awkward smile as he nodded his head.

"They don't know! I can assure you, you don't want to get caught as we did,"

"Wait, Aunt knows you two are dating now?" Han Chen questioned, he wanted to tell her or warn Jia Yu to tell her before she finds out herself but he didn't think that she already found out now she must know he also kept it from her.

"Yes, it didn't go well," Ji Chen responded, remembering how embarrassed he was when her parent caught them making out right in front of them, he quickly shook his head to dispel the memory.

"Yu Yan, you have never been this quick-witted when it comes to love, why are you suddenly---it must be Han Chen's influence on you," Meng Yao remarked, after all, they all know how slow-witted she was with Chen Kai, how long it took to hug him, kiss him, as soon as she reached that stage, she gave it a full stop.

"Can you guys stop speaking like I am a total love noob, you can ask him if I am really slow-witted," they all turned to Han Chen to answer the question, he glanced at them first then glanced at her then glanced at them, she raised her brow.

"Well...I won't say she is actually that smart...you know when it comes to things like this, the duty of maintaining our relationship seems to lie on me," He responded teasingly with a serious expression on his face that one would think he actually means what he said.

They all burst into a crack of laughter leaving her to bite her lips then shake her head at his betrayal.

She hit his chest hard then pointed her finger at him.

"Fine, since I am not that smart then why don't I learn by having a side relationship, that way, I will be able to serve you better," she retorted with the same level of seriousness he had when he did his own.

Hearing her say it like that, their eyes went round, they just couldn't imagine Yu Yan two-timing but the tone she said it in sounded too serious.

He smiled then slowly curled up his lips, she raised her brow once again, he grabbed her finger then pulled her closer to him.

"I don't think you want to do that when you have the perfect fiance to learn from, if you want I can level up our game-" he tilted his head then slowly moved his face closer to hers, her eyes went round just like theirs did as many in the canteen turned to them.

Just as his lips were about to meet hers, she quickly placed her palm in between.

"They are looking... she whispered with her face scrunched out of embarrassment, his eyes darted to the side then he smiled again.

"Pretend they are invisible," he tried to remove her palm but she resisted then pushed him away then she lowered her head in embarrassment, automatically, the canteen became filled with whispers loud enough for them to hear.

"Brother, I didn't you were so romantic," Jia Yu freaked out after watching such a wonderful scene.

The rest cupped their hands together then bowed their head in respect.

"Seems like there is a lot I still have to learn from brother-in-law," Ji Chen remarked, Yu Yan couldn't bear their teases and the many eyes fixated on them so she quickly stood up then ran out of the canteen while they chuckled as they watched her run.

She stopped when she got inside the elevator then cupped her cheeks that had already turned red, she fanned herself using her hands, the image of his curled lips kept popping into her head.

She quickly composed herself seeing the red number indicating that the elevator will soon stop at her destination but as the door opened, she saw Chen Kai right in front of her.

Unlike before, she doesn't feel anything towards him, not even hate or discomfort, she stood still with their eyes staring into each other's eyes all to see if she really doesn't feel anything and soon as she got the confirmation, she smiled inwardly.

{Seems like I am truly in love,}

The fact that every hard feeling she felt for the jerk no longer resurfaces made her heart feel light...very light.

She smiled faintly at him without intending to then walked past him, he squinted his eyes as soon as she passed by.

{Did she just smile at me?}

He questioned rhetorically, he has already got used to her coldness and indifference whenever they pass by each other at least it shows that she still cares about him even if it is not in a good way but now...{I have to find out, what in the world she is thinking,}

He quickly rushed after her, he followed her until they got to his secluded hallway not knowing that she has already realized that he was following her and she doesn't want him to make a fuss in public now that people already know about her and Han Chen, the last thing she wants in their relationship is misunderstanding and scandals.

She sighed then folded her arms on her chest before turning around to face him.

"Why are you following me?" she asked with a serene look in her eyes like she doesn't care, he scoffed looking into those eyes of hers as he drew closer to her.

"You...why are you suddenly this way?"

"What do you mean?"

He moved a step closer to her with his eyes narrowed at her.

"Why-in-the-world-would-you-smile-at-me?" he queried, stressing each word to show just how much it infuriates him to see her smile at him, he knows Yu Yan like the back of his hand...or he thinks he knows her, she would never smile at him after what he did, she might not seem like someone who holds grudges but he knows she is very good at it.

She stood still for a second in speechlessness before scoffing!

"It seems like you are still the egoistic and self-obsessed man you have always been, I am very sorry for smiling at you, please forgive this peasant for smiling at you," she responded in a sarcastic tone then she rolled her eyes and turned around to leave.
