Tan Ja Nin felt guilty when she called Manager Mo to inform her that that she could not attend the acting workshop and the audition.

"Oh dear, another lost opportunity but what matters most is your health. Take meds and get well soon." Manager Mo said frustratedly.

"Uhm. Thank you Manager Mo." her voice was so weak because she was guilty of her lies.

"Are you alone in your apartment?" Manager Mo asked with a concern voice. "Do you need someone to nurse you and I can drop b.."

"My mom will come here to my apartment today to look for me!" She said another lie.

"Good!" Manager Mo said with a relief on her voice. "I have an incoming call so I have to say goodbye now. Let me know if you are still unwell tomorrow so I can inform your acting coach.

"Uhm. Bye now" Tan Ja Nin pressed end call button and looked at the man beside her. She did not come home to her apartment last night and planned to stay at Lee Jin Ho's apartment the whole day.

"What did she say?" Lee Jin Ho asked. He did not go to the office too and was planning to work from home.

"She was quite disappointed for the lost opportunity but emphasized that health is more important." Tan Ja Nin answered. She put down her phone at the bedside table.

Lee Jin Ho nodded "Manager Mo is such a good manager."

"She is! That's why I'm feeling guilty now. She has also offered to nurse me today if I don't have someone to take good care of me."

Lee Jin Ho hugged her. They were still lying at the bed at 8 oclock in the morning. "Don't worry for the lost opportunity. Once your new commercial has been aired you will get more opportunities with much good role" His soothing voice was reassuring her.

"Why didn't you attend the contract signing yesterday?" She suddenly remembered.

"You upset me yesterday." Lee Jin Ho answered.

"So was it also the reason why you called Yan Mor Tee and had a drink?"

Lee Jin Ho pinched the tip of her nose. "Why are you so hard-headed?"

Tan Ja Nin was astounded. How come she became hard-headed. "How do you say so?"

Lee Jin Ho did not answer her. He cannot lose face in front of her. He cannot admit to her that he was upset yesterday because he did not know how to convince her to live with him. "Why don't you want to live with me?" He asked instead.

"Because I don't think it's necessary. I can stay here in your pad anytime if you want without living here permanently." Tan Ja Nin answered.

Lee Jin Ho frowned. "You don't wan't to live with me permanently?"

"Not that." Tan Ja Nin pouted her lips.

"Then why?" Lee Jin Ho asked. Sometimes he really doesn't know what Tan Ja Nin thoughts.

"It will create unnecessary questions if I move here. First, mom always visits me on a weekend and if she knew that I move here and we're living on the same roof without getting married first, she's going to be histerical."

Lee Jin Ho thought for awhile and said "Then why don't we get married to make it official?"

Tan Ja Nin eyes widened in disbelief. She din't know if she will take it seriously. They just been in a relationship recently and this man was already talking about marriage?

"You're talking like you really sure that I am the woman you wanted to spend the rest of your life with"

Lee Jin Ho fake a smile. "I'm just giving you the best solution."

Tan Ja Nin didn't know but she felt disappointed with his answer. Was she expecting that Lee Jin Ho will confirm that he really wanted to be with her for the rest of his life?

She chided herself. She was crazy for thinking that.

Lee Jin Ho looked at the wall clock and got up "I'm going to have a conference call in 30 mins. I'll go wash up now."

Tan Ja Nin nodded and got up too. "I'll prepare our breakfast too."

.....

Song Dei Si was a too excited to come to her cooking class given that they were going to cook some dishes. During their hands-on activity, they were tasked to prepare a complete meal. The whole class was group into two.

"I'm glad we belong to the same group!" Song Dei Si was approached by Chun Ji and he was smiling at her from ear to ear.

Song Dei Si returned the smile. Chun Ji has became one of her good friends in the cooking class. Although Chun Ji has given her a hint that he was interested on her on their first day of class, he managed to just became a good friend to her when he learned that she was already married.

As she talked with him everyday, given that they were seatmates, she learned that Chun Ji was really a nice guy. She admired his passion for cooking and was amazed by his talent in the kitchen too.

"Same here. I'm glad to be your groupmate." She said.

Choi Mira, who was also their groupmate has approached Chun Ji and smiled at him. She clung onto him. "Chun Ji! My guardian angel must be working right noe and he made it possible that we became groupmates."

It was known to the whole class that Choi Mira has her eyes on Chun Ji. She was very vocal that she likes Chun Ji so much.

Chun Ji twitched his mouth and softly took off Choi Mira's hands that were hook into his arms. Chun Ji knew that Choi Mira liked him but he doesn't like a woman who was too flirty. He was the kind of guy who doesn't want being pursued because he believes that it was the man's job to pursue the girl instead.

"Yes, so we better focus in honing our cooking skills so that we could earn Master Chef Li's approval." Chun Ji said.

Subtle rejection. Song Dei Si could not help but smile when she heard Chun Ji's reply to Choi Mira.

"Yes of course that's why I'm so glad to be your groupmate because you are one of the best in class. I can learn so much from you." Choi Mira said

Chun Ji shrugged his shoulders.

"Jie Jie, I'm also glad that you belong to our group too!" Choi Mira turned to her and gave her a warm smile.

Jie Jie? Since when she became her older sister. If she was not mistaken she was only a year older than Choi Mira but then she was addressing her as if they have a huge age gap?

She gave her a warm smile too. For as long as this woman will not bring her any trouble, she was okay to be her groupmate too.

"Okay class. Find your groupmates now and start building rapport because you're going to be groupmates for the rest of the season." Master Chef Li said. "Group A can take the station 1 and Group B can take the station 2."

Everyone stood up and went to their respective station. They were only 10 students from their class so each group has 5 members. The other two members joined Group A which Song Dei Si belongs to. Lin Goren was too shy when they started to discuss about what dishes they were going to prepare for the activity. While the other group member, Mo Baicheng was already comfortable talking to them.

"Pick a group leader." Master Chef Li said.

Group A has discussed and all of the team members were nominating Song Dei Si to be their group leader.

"Me? Why me?" Song Dei Si asked

"It was because you are the oldest in our group." Choi Mira said.

"Being the oldest doesn't mean you became the leader automatically" Song Dei Si said, trying to control her temper because she didn't know why Choi Mira was making a big deal about her age. "The leader should possess the skills to lead a group and guide each team members"

"Which you have those skills" Chun Ji said. "You can definitely lead our group and guide us on how to cook more efficiently."

"I agree." Mo Baicheng said.

Lin Goren nodded too.

"Please be our group leader?" Chun Jin asked and gave her a begging expression.

"Okay then" She said as she accepted the role as a group leader.

"Alright. It's a done deal." Chun Ji raised his hands and offered a high five.

Song Dei Si raise her hands too and accepted the high five.

Song Dei Si catched Choi Mira's frowning face.

"So have you decided? Who's the leader of Group A?" Master Chef Li asked

"Song Dei Si!"

Master Chef Li looked at Song Dei Si and smiled at her. His face expression was that of someone who was also convinced that Song Dei Si was the perfect Group Leader for Group A.
