1 Yang and Bai
The first time I heard the statement "then my life was ignited again" when I mouth those sentences, it sounds like nonsense to me but for some reasons I don't quite know myself, those sentences were imprinted in my mind.
I am an emotionless person, arrogant, ruthless in my dealings but I never know that my emotionless life will once be ignited again.
When I first saw her, I don't know who she is, she look like a jovial and cheerful person.. I fell in love with her at first sight, I try to pursue her but unfortunately I couldn't find her no matter how I search for her, I couldn't get her name, I couldn't forget that beautiful woman who has a big doe eyes that seem to draw someone to her, she is a bit cold, she is like a fresh flower in winter which make someone to remember plum blossom, like my friends said "maybe she is just a fragment of your imagination" I denied it at first but later I started to believe it..
Then I meant her again after eight years and I realise she is real, she is never my imagination, she is that woman I fell in love with at first sight..
"hey Yang Xi, Yang Xi, what are you thinking about?" asked Mo Ting
"you have been absent minded quite a lot these days, I have been talking to you, you didn't reply, what happened, you seem lost?" he added.
"Sorry" I muttered..
"ah! general Yang who never say sorry, I am surprise, am I hearing things?" he exclaimed.
But from his tone I know he is excited.. I sneer in return but didn't explain myself.
Mo Ting has been my best friend right from childhood, he understand me the most even without me talking, he knew what I was thinking but for him to ask me a question he couldn't make out what I have been thinking and I am not interested in telling him either..
After been told that she is a fragment of my imagination I don't like talking about her with anyone be it my best friend or my mother..
"So what are you saying?" I asked him. Instantly he changed his expression and replied in serious tone.
"I am saying that the joint project with XuanYi group is not going well, don't you think you should do something about it, they promise to investigate the situation of the missing goods but it's been a week and no report, are they playing with us?" he said angrily.
"Mo Ting, you shouldn't bother yourself with irrelevant stuff like this, you know I am just waiting for them to make a slight mistake, I wasn't interested in making a deal with them in the first place if not because of mum, I just have to compromise so she won't force me to get married, don't worry I know what to do, they already make a mistake but you know it won't affect our company" I replied.
Mo Ting was angry not because of the losses the company will make but because the other company is clearly provoking us.
"Hmph" he grunted.
"So tell me, what have you been thinking about, general Yang? Mo Ting asked.
I have never see someone who change facial expressions so fast like Mo Ting.
"Nothing, just a bit preoccupied" I replied. I can't tell him I saw 'her' again or else he will start his lectures again like a mother hen.
"I will be going home earlier today, mum ask me to come, she has something to discuss with me, will you come with me? It's been a while she saw you last, she is been asking of you" Mo Ting look at me and quickly look down, I felt that something was amiss. "What happened?" I asked him
"Mum knew I like your sister" he said slowly.
I wasn't surprise to hear that but he hide it well for over 20 years. "How did she know?" his face turn red instantly "did you do something shameless?"
"NO" he replied immediately
"but your face is burning, so tell me what did you do to my younger sister?" I asked him with cold voice
"Brother please but I can't..." the land line rang which distract the both of us, immediately he sprinted out of the office.
"He is so lucky" I muttered.
I picked the phone and answered irritated. "what?"
My secretary answered but from his voice I know he is scared
"sir, you have a call from XuanYi group, should I direct the call to you?"
"NO" I said firmly
"let them taste the meaning of being ignore, didn't they dare provoke me? Let me return the favour, don't direct any calls from them to me in the next three days, I don't want to hear anything about them, Okay?"
"yes president Yang" he replied
"Good" I grunted
I hanged up the telephone irritated, I took my phone and checked the time, it's 1Pm, lunch period is over, I called my secretary again, he answered immediately
"President what can I do for you sir?"
"Bring lunch for me"
"Okay sir"
"As usual" I added
"I understand sir" secretary Zhang Moran answered.
Every single time secretary Zhang talk with his able president, he will feel like he want to pee his pant because of the aura his president emitted, it is too scary. He breath out a sigh of relief, "I can't stand this ah" he murmured "I have to be fast or else I might lose my job" he was so scared out of his wit.
When the employees in the company saw the president's secretary running like something is chasing him, they immediately know they might be in trouble soon.
....
A university, department of psychology
"So I hope you guys understand that Criminal Psychology might not be compulsory but it is important for we that study it, most policemen believe that criminal psychology can't beat traditional way of solving cases, they believe it's just a bluff but as a future criminal psychologist make them regret ever saying that, the lecture today will stop here, I told you from the very beginning that I don't have much time to lecture now I have to make schedule and your scheme of works, so I hope you can understand me"
When the woman finish talking in one breath without skipping or stopping with her expressionless face, all her students were all shocked, how can someone be so formidable? It's inhumane..
She look so cold, calm and stoic making one question if she is the one who just finish talking.
The woman look like she is in her late 20s, beautiful, she look elegant, pristine but too cold. The way she dress make someone wondered if she is from this era, she is so conservative.
She is dressed in a navy blue long loose dress with elbow length sleeves, a two inches white wedge heels which make her look refine while standing and a gold rimmed round glasses, it's give her this type of scholarly aura.
"Miss please what's your name? You haven't introduce yourself yet" a student asked
"Oh, I must have forgotten" she murmured but it was still loud enough for everyone to hear
Students: "....."
How can she forget, this is ridiculous
"I am Bai Li, your new criminal psychology professor" she added
"Your age ma'am, you look so young to be a professor" another student chirped in
Bai Li smirk and asked "does it matter?"
All students were flabbergasted, is she really a professor, she doesn't smile and barely talk a lot except for her lectures.
Bai Li packed her books and took her bag, start walking out but she stopped before she open the door without looking back she answered the student who asked the question.
"I will be 27 this year, don't I deserve to be a professor?" she said and went out.
The students were so shocked that they feel like they have been slapped in the face.
"She is 27 but already a professor, she is truly formidable" student A said
"Are you alright? She will be 27 this year which means she is not yet 27, it's really crazy, she must be a genius" student B exclaimed.
"Does her age really matter?" a voice asked from the back
Nobody notice the guy because he was sitting at the extreme end.
"Of course it does, what do you think?" another student chirped in
"I don't think so, so far she is intelligent, it doesn't matter" the student stood up and left the class
The students were looking at him like he was some kind of a fool.
Professor Bai Li became the topic of the day for the students.
After Bai Li left the class, she went straight to her office, it's been tiring for her lately. She came back to country A after eight years, she went to study in country S when she got a scholarship, "it's been eight years, will I still see him again?" she murmur to herself.
Only she herself knows what she is thinking
