14. serious.

YuTang in normal times wouldn't even think of calling someone of her 'class; this familiarly, but with the last few hours together, he couldn't help but think that, the distance between them had shortened, he called her, "jiejie... I understand.."

"Good boy! So.. if you worship me", the 'like' changed to 'worship' in a second, anyway, she continued, " come work for me... I have great faith in your potential....!"

YuTang paused and gave her a wry smile, "My qualification is not enough to enter your company, jiejie..."

"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk", she shook her index finger and said, "I'm the boss. Whatever I say goes. I'm the largest back door and the purest of the golden thighs for one to hold on! As for your qualification, I'll just make you work like a bull to earn money for me... It's very easy, Child Yu~", though her voice was very gloating, there was a seductive smile on her face, like a devil enticing him to make a contract and sell his soul to her...

He still resisted, "I'll think about it.... But thank you for saying it... It really meant a lot", gaining recognition from her was really a great feeling...

She shrugged and said, " Well, you can answer me after new year's celebration... and I only spoke the truth~"

She saw the sun coming out of the clouds to play again and asked him, "What's the time now?"

YuTang was still in a daze, but replied after a moment, "It's 10:45..."... It was both a short and long period...

"Hmm? Do you have a house to stay?"

YuTang looked at her with a dazed look and chose to say the truth, he didn't want to lie to this person and so, he shook his head.

"Enough money to stay out? I mean no offence, but what you are wearing is not this years product..."

'She did have a sharp eye'...

"The money I earned from my jobs was just enough to buy these, the rest was for the rent and her--", he didn't want to continue.

" I'm not sorry for not knowing, but 'you' didn't get any jobs that earned well... ?", she had a hard to believe look.

He didn't say anything.

"Well, I won't ask, but as a potential star, these could become a flaw in the future. Even though these are of a decent brand, they are a product of last year, which doesn't go well with the common idea of the netizens who think that all the stars are rich... mind you, I'm not judging you.. just stating the facts!", when it came to her work, she was very serious.

YuTang didn't deny her, he knew this better than anyone else.

Entering this business was a double-edged sword, you earn a lot of money, but you also have to spend a lot to maintain a certain amount of status, the more you earn, the more you have to spend as well and as for her, she was a professional, her saying it to face at her high position was not rude, she had the background to back it up.

He heard her say, " Just saying this, but if the man was a Pig, your woman is a money-sucking vampire... if you want to, do take offence.... you'll grow up...", she shrugged.

".....I won't... back then, it was my fault to spend on her as well. Rationally speaking, I was the one who was blind..", he finally admitted it.

ChunHua was elated by this, "As expected of the person I chose. You are still calm~ Good going! Okay then, final question. Do you know how to cook 'good' food...?"... though she didn't say it, nor did he get it, but the keyword here was 'good'.

As for why?

Well, ChunHua had tried, but with weird brain wires, she never followed the recipes and always said,

"fire, pot, cut vegetables, salt, sugar, soy sauce, stir, toss and serve", well, though they were edible, it wasn't exactly---

Anyway, when she found that her Little Bun can cook, she had tried, but in the end, gave up... well, there is always the option of making him do the cooking and eat his food made with love, as for her own cooking, she will try to make an effort till the end~..... probably?

YuTang gave her a questioning look before saying a, "I can cook any other homely dish like normal...."

ChunHua clapped her hands with glee, " I have a free room in my apartment. Do you want to stay there?.. Wait! Before you start thinking too much. My apartment is the penthouse of the building for our artists. You still are not a part of my company so, I can't give a whole apartment for you, but I can share my huge apartment with you. Of course, to make things straight, you'll have to pay me, for now by cooking, for the record, the amount I pay to the chefs every month is equal to your average artist's income for around 6 months", she seemed really proud of it, he heard her continue, " ... and if you get in our company, you can work and then give the money to me. As for your now, you'll have to cook some good home food for me to stay there~ Don't worry, there will be no issue of me asking you to sleep or, you forcing yourself on me... I don't like to fight, but I'm a black belt in KARATE~ ...phew, that was a huge speech! Anyway, think about it on your own, for now, let's get into the car...", she really had some fantastic persuasive skills; in that she didn't give you enough time to think about your next move and made it seem like everything was working out on your side.

YuTang saw her back, deep in contemplation, a shadow of someone he didn't know overlapped with hers, he blinked and that memory fled away like a fleeting illusion... still, he asked a simple, "Why..?"

Why are you doing this much for me?
