54 WE REALLY HAVE SOME UNFINISHED BUSINESS

Fifteen minutes later the teacher left. 

At the door, he bumped into Jingyao and Xiangyang, the both easily ignored him and went in. 

This Jingyao now thinks of himself as a peacock meanwhile he's nothing but a crow. Everyone knows he's orphaned, but after befriending the young master, he doesn't even respect teachers anymore. 

Jingyao went straight to Cui Yao's desk and slammed the book on it. "Ya... Miss Cui, you should take proper care of your books... Don't go around sending people to find them. I really hate girls that are lazy. And the sight of them..." He bent closer to her ear, "disgusts me."

He stood up and put his hands in his pockets then smiled. 

Her head bobbed in agreement. 

He crossed Andy's and his friends desk to his, making sure to leave a foot print on the chair.

Cui Yao had set me up that day. That wasn't the last time though... We really have some unfinished business!

*

City M,

It's been two days already and Zhaolin's meetings have all been concluded. 

He was tired out, so Xiangyang drove them to the airport. 

On the way to the airport, his phone started ringing, he took a look at the caller ID and saw the name. Xiao Shiya. He looked away and ignored the ringing phone. 

After some time it stopped ringing. 

Shiya almost threw the phone away, seeing he didn't pick up. 

He suddenly left the country without informing me and I have been calling for days now, he isn't picking... F*ck... 

She went out of her office and headed to the studio. 

*

Inside the studio, a young man of about 6.2ft rested on a white wall. His black hair was styled into a pixie cut. 

Xing Qiangshen looked straight at the camera as it clicked multiple times. He was putting on a shirt with puffed cuffs, he rolled it up in a sexy way. The pant he had on was a bit loose and hung lazily around his waist line. 

One of his hand rested firmly on the wall, the other in his hair, he looked away.

Click. The sound of the camera came yet again. 

"Cut." The director said. He turned to the woman who sat with her leg crossed behind him and asked, "Do you have any more angles you want to use or?"

She shook her head. "It is all fine, that's enough for the day. 

Qiangshen strode towards them, "Shiya, I need to leave now."

Xiao Shiya raised an eyebrow. "So quick? You have someone to attend to?"

"Even if I have someone else to attend to, it's no business of yours!" He turned and left to go wash up and leave. 

This young man is none other her cousin brother in-law. 

Xing Qiangshen is the son of Xing Jingze, Xing Rongbo's junior brother. 

Qiangshen a model, actor and artist. The only reason he came here today to film the new design was because it was his family's company, if not she knew he wouldn't spare her a glance. He was just as cold as Zhaolin and carried the suppressive aura around him always. 

she watched him strode away until he vanished and wondered to herself how all of the grandsons could be this cold. 

"Wow wow. Is that really Qiangshen I just saw?"

Shiya dragged her gaze away from where Qiangshen had just disappeared into and looked up at her friend, Cui Yao. 

"I remember when we were just kids, he was so cute and now? I never believed he would go into entertainment... He knows how handsome he is and with that light smile, he got the girls drowning." She looked down at Shiya, "What happened? You look a little bit moody." Cui Yao noted. She sat down beside her friend. "Xiao Yaya," the Xiao she used right now isn't her surname but the one used to address someone very close to you. 

Shiya took a deep breath, "Cui Yao, long time no see."

"Yeah, hehe. You are so busy managing your company that you rarely have time to remember us. I bet you haven't had much free time on your hand, am I right?"

"Of course." Shiya smiled.

"Believe me when I say this, no one can manage such a big company with ease as much as you do. You deserve it even if the company is transferred into your name. Your star is shining greatly, dear friend. The only task left is to carry an heir, be it a girl or boy, no one would dare double cross you. So you should nourish your body more and prepare to have a son."

Shiya was elated due to her friend's kind words. 

She stood up, "To my office!" It was a command telling Cui Yao to stop talking. 

***

Qiangshen was so pissed off about today's shoot. He had never done anything as stressful as this in his entire life. He had to do many reshoots because Shiya wasn't pleased and the director was bent on fulfilling her heart desires. She had a word or two to say about every retake. He had never wanted to come but this was his family's business built by his grandfather with his sweat and hard work, so he couldn't possibly let the old man down. 

He told his chauffeur to drive him to his aunt's restaurant. 

When he arrived there, he put on a  gauze mask and strode into the restaurant. 

He went to her office and saw her busy with something on her laptop. "I'm so hungry." He whined, but she didn't answer. "Hello aunty, I have visited the restaurant after such a long time and you don't want to let me eat..."

Xiaocan finally looked up. She was surprised to see him then beamed. "Xiao Qiang, what a lovely surprise. How are you? Come, come sit over here." She pointed at the chair. 

He smiled and walked up to the chair, "Aunty, I'm so hungry."

"Why? What were you doing that you had to neglect your stomach?"

"Was busy filming a short film."

"You could have taken a break to eat."

He shook his head, "No, I wanted to eat your food. And besides, the meal over there was way too bland compared to yours."

She chuckled, "You starved yourself for my food? Then I'd be sure to prepare you something nice."

She remembered when he was just a child, he would always come to the main house after school, whining that he hadn't eaten since the day broke. She would then cook and feed him till he was over fed.
