1 To Beijing

MingLi woke up feeling refreshed and excited as she did every morning. She had a busy day ahead of her, but that didn't matter. All that mattered was getting to work on time. She wore a white top with black hems and a black skirt. She wore black black takkies with a white stripe on the side with black socks that came up to her knees. She walked down stairs. Her assistant Lu Chen, was waiting for her. " Miss", he began regretfully, "Old master has ordered that you return to the capital today". MingLi froze. "Why?" "I'm sorry XiaoLi, Old Master Xi said that he wants you join A-university for a year". MingLi was dumbstruck but Lu Chen continued. "He would like you to look at potential business partners for when you take over Xi Empire and also make friends and have fun". Why?!! She moaned internally. Why did it have to be the same school where HE was. Although there were only 2 other universities in the capital and one was for boys only while the was not very prestige, she would rather go to the boy school than have to meet him. MingLi was 18 and had completed highschool 2 yrs earlier than normal. She actually studied in America and only had a few friends in the capital. But she had once visited the old house 2 yrs ago and coincidentally met a boy named Si XiaYi. They had dated for a few months before she left him without a trace. Now she was had 2 yrs left in university while he was in his last year. If he saw her now. What would happen?

He was 3 yrs older than her and extremely handsome. If they were to meet again she would want to run into his arms and stay there for all eternity. But she had to control herself, after all XiaYi wasn't a good person. That was the reason she left him. His cold indifference and aloofness made everyone feel I intimidated. "MingLi, your leaving in a half hour", Lu Chen's voice brought her out of her daze. A half hour. " Are the maids packing?" she asked coldly. "They have already finished", Lu Chen shivered at the hostility in MingLi's voice. " Then lets go", replied quietly. She knew she could go up against her grandfather. Not even begging can save a sheep from slaughter.

In the plane to Beijing, MingLi though up a P. O. A. Since the university was not very big and only took in a 100 students yearly l, she knew the chances of meeting him was very high. But he was a senior while she was a second year. That gave her a 70%chance of meeting him. There was only one library and one cafeteria that made it a 80% chance. Her luck was really low.

She arrived in the capital at at 9 the night. She was extremely tired and walked into her dorm room. She didn't want to share with any girls so her Grandpa Ji had given her a private dorm room and had it redecorated to her liking. It was of course the least he could do. She threw herself on her bed and slept.
