Mei-mei

When she arrived back to her office floor, one of the secretaries came up to both Lena and Diane.

"Miss. Shen, CEO Yang has been waiting inside your office for a while now. I told him that you were in an important meeting but he requested to wait for you."

"Did he say why?" Lena asked.

"I did not ask. However, I do know that he was the one that came and picked up the rings today, not Miss. Wu."

"Mhm… You guys can leave for lunch." Lena dismissed them and turned to Diane. "Order something light for me."

"Yes, Miss. Shen."

Lena opened the doors and strode into her office. She spotted Andy sitting down calmly looking at some of the magazines on the table.

"You always told me not to visit you when you are working, but here you are, doing the same thing." Lena spoke and Andy turned to look her way.

"As far as I remember, you never listened anyway, Lena."

Lena did a small laugh. She gently placed the contract on her desk along with several other files and went to sit down by Andy on the sofa.

"You came and picked up the rings today, was there something wrong with them?"

"No. They are fine. I am here to ask you about something else."

Lena looked at Andy with a "what" face.

"You met with Hazel last night?" He got straight to the point.

"I did. Why?"

Lena knew where he was going with that question. While Hazel was gone during their breakup, Lena had done some taunting and bullying towards Eva. However, with the tag team duo Hazel and Lena, things can get more ugly. Hazel was, after all, on a different level than Lena.

"Tell me honestly, what are you two planning this time?"

"Andy, are you accusing me of doing something?"

"You know what I am trying to say. Every time you both meet up, there was sure trouble to follow. And I know Hazel despises Eva as much as you."

"I don't despise her. She is just insignificant in my eyes. Also, Hazel and I were just catching up on our missed times together. She had been gone for a long time."

"Hazel won't even come to greet my mother, saying that she can't be in the same mansion that I had lived in. You know how much our family dotes on her, and she dotes on you that much too."

"She'll get over it. Just bribe her with some latest edition clothes and handbags. She'll be kissing your doormat the next hour."

Andy sighed. "I really hope this time both of you stay out of your old habits. If you both harm her, I cannot guarantee that I will be on your side."

"You really do love her, huh?"

Lena could tell just by looking at him. He never was this soft and caring around her. The tone of his voice and the clarity in his eyes tells Lena that he had fallen hard for Eva. Lena just hoped that Eva loved him as much as he did. But even so, a successful relationship requires more than just love.

"I do." Andy smiled. "I am sorry... that it couldn't work out between us."

"I am sorry too, for the bad things I did. But I am really over it."

Andy had just wanted to make sure Lena and Hazel were not up to their no good habits and had no further plans to hurt Eva. He knew that Lena had changed since the breakup, and he knew that Lena was always truthful with him.

He grabbed the bag that contained the rings and walked towards the door. He was about to open the door when his phone suddenly rang and he stopped to pick it up.

"Eva?" Andy answered.

"Where are you?"

"I just picked up the rings. I'll be meet you for lunch."

"Ok. I'll wait for you."

He hung up. He turned back and casually walked towards Lena who was now standing up watching him. He came up to her and gave her a soft hug.

"Lena, you'll always be my mei-mei, just so you know that." He gently released her and patted her head.

Lena chuckled. "You should get going."

Andy left and Lena watched the door quietly close. She went back to sit on her desk and rested her head.

'I won't hurt her, for now. But if Eva was really the one who put the other hit on me, I am willing to become enemies with you too, Andy. You have your own people to protect, and so do I.' The eyes of Lena turned dark.

Eva was the only person that Lena could think of being the person who put the other hit on her. However, no matter how much she pondered over the situation, her brain cannot seem to find the reason why Eva would ever do that.

Eva was totally the opposite of Lena. She had the ideal personality of the main female lead. She was smart, nice, caring, and determined.

But now that Lena contemplated the situation, Eva had been acting... out of character? The way Eva's eyes are changing and her attitude towards Andy. Like how she never told Andy that the rings were getting made through SHYNE, especially Lena. And that one time, when she kept staring at Lena and Ming with coveting eyes.

Whatsoever, Lena made the wrong conclusion before. This time she would need to play cautiously. Her enemy might not be what they seem to be.

There was a slight knock on her door that snapped her out of her thought process.

"Come in."

Diane opened the door and entered with some boxes of food.

"Your food just came in. Are you going to eat here or out in the eating area?"

Lena had a separate eating area on her floor. Sometimes the food she ate was too aromatic and the smell can be too much in her office.

"Put them in the fridge, I don't feel like eating now. I'll heat them up later when I want to eat." Lena said.
