I like you! - Part 3

The day have arrived, today Wang Yi-An came early to Yang Corps' headquarters. Her orientation was not until 9:00 a.m but being early kept her mind at peace. The other two interns, Kwon Li-Mei and Liang Shing, arrived early, after they introduced each other they all went to enjoy a cup of coffee before they return for the orientation. When they returned, the receptionist told them to wait in the lobby. They sat there waiting, chitchats with one another.

They found out they were about the same age, however, Liang Shing was the oldest. Being two years older than Kwon Li-Mei, and three years older than Wang Yi-An, he is indeed the oldest. He wanted to be sure he could get in Yang Corps and so he had completed his degree while Wang Yi-An and Kwon Li-Mei are in their third years. Kwon Li-Mei went to an expensive university, and Wang Yi-An went to a cheap third rate college. Not only does Kwon Li-Mei have a pretty face, but she also seems to be quite an intelligent beauty, but she sure loves to gossip, especially about President Yang.

"Did you know in the Country's Top 10 Magazine, they featured our President Yang, he's ranked as the hottest and most desirable bachelor!" with a copy in her hands as she waved, sure enough Yang Tian-Xu's photograph as the magazine's front cover.

"It says here in the Fun-Facts section, Those who worked with President Yang Tian-Xu says he is strict at work, but fun when not. It also says in the Fun-Facts; If this country has an award for the most filial son, President Yang Tian-Xu would win that award leaving others a milestone away! Oh my God! He is so my dream guy!" Kwon Li-Mei pointed her finger at Yang Tian-Xu's face in the picture, like she is petting his face and what not, but Wang Yi-An wasn't paying attention. She has a sketchbook out and was busy drawing the lobby area.

"Whoa, you are very talented." Liang Shing said as he was sitting in the middle between the two girls. He listens to Kwon Li-Mei gossips on his left side, but he'll turn over and saw Wang Yi-An sketching on his right side.

Wang Yi-An smiled and said, "Thanks." The three of them waited until the clock turned to 8:45 p.m. Assistant Tseng arrived and saw them and said, "You youngers sure are early today. Excited?"

"Yes," they said in unison. He smiled and said, "Okay, lets get you kids started." Assistant Tseng asked them to follow him, and he explained the overall structure of Yang Corps, as they walked into the elevator going to the seventh floor. He told them the history, and most important, he asked them.

"Anyone here watches the historical drama, Legend of the Yang Family?"

"Oh, I love that drama!" Kwon Li-Mei was excited about it, because of the drama, she chosen Yang Corps and not Pan holdings Inc.

"That was my favourite drama of all time!" Liang Shing couldn't help it, but he also expressed his love for the drama. However, Wang Yi-An was simple as she said with little expression, "I don't have time to watch dramas."

They all looked at Wang Yi-An in silent, saying nothing else, they continued as they got off the elevator, the doors opened to reveal the busy office of Yang Corps. Each person was busy doing their job, most were on the computer typing, while somebody else was on a call line. The atmosphere was overall chaotic, and standing to the side chattering away was the Art Director Mr Han, and the President, Yang Tian-Xu. Yang Tian-Xu had his back faced towards them, face to face with Mr Han, they could see Mr Han, but can't see President Yang's face as they walked in, but Assistant Tseng knew it was President Yang from his back alone, he called out to him. "President Yang!"

Yang Tian-Xu was busy instructing Mr Hans, "I have high hope for the new interns, I hope you can guide them towards success."

"Don't worry Pres, you know I might be old, but I'm still capable!" Mr Han laughs.

As President of Yang Corps, Yang Tian-Xu wanted to double check that the new interns could keep up with the quality of their productions and ensuring them as many hands-on experiences as possible.

"You have my complete trust, Mr Han. I thank you for your hard work."

Mr Han nodded his head, but when suddenly, Assistant Tseng called out to him. "President Yang!"

Yang Tian-Xu turned around, and as Assistant Tseng continued, "here are our new interns."

When he turned his head, he saw her. Wang Yi-An, standing behind Assistant Tseng. His body became frozen, like time stopped, unable to comprehend his surrounding. His assistant's voice faded out, and his sight only focused on her. Assistant Tseng and the other two interns, along with Wang Yi-An approached closer and closer, Yang Tian-Xu couldn't see anyone else but her. Once they reach him, she was only an arm's length away. If he wanted to grab her, he could. Going in mayhems he ponders again, "This isn't a dream is it?"

Lost within his own thoughts, he could not hear Assistant Tseng's voice as he explained to the interns their duties as interns, what the company expectation for them would be. Assistant Tseng introduced him and Mr Han and their respective position within Yang Corps.

"Mr Han is the best mentor you kids could only dream of," he said as he laughs, "He'll be your mentor for three months, and write an evaluation for every one of you. Trust me when I say you kids have the best luck ever!"

"Oh stop it Assistant Tseng! You're making me blush!" While Mr Han and Assistant Tseng joked with one another. They laughed and talk about how many years they had worked at Yang Corps. Everyone was feeling chilled and casual.

Every one but Yang Tian-Xu. His heart raced, his mind went blank, unable to process the reality happening before his eyes. Their voices echoes, fading in and out, along with everyone else in the background, just as they greeted one another, shaking hands along the way. He could only see her, everyone else was a blur.

Although the interns didn't reach their hands out to shake with President Yang as they felt inferior to his status. They gave a simple head bow to greet him. Just when Assistant Tseng told them to follow Mr Han where he could assign them each a workstation.

They walked pass President Yang one by one, Wang Yi-An was the last one, she was at the end of the line-up. She was the last person to pass by him. Like it was an instant reaction, he reached out a hand and grabbed her arm and pull her in towards him, he shouted aloud, loud enough for everyone in the office to hear him.

"I like you!"
