4 Qian Daiyu

Su Li

I am done. To think that I actually thought that he was nice. He has nothing but a pretty face.

Ok, maybe a nice body too, but so what?

What's so good about being rich, you are not even taught basic manners.

He was thanking me as if I saved his enemy's life. Like seriously? He could have at least appreciated it a little.

I saw a person die in front of me. I am not going to forget that night for the rest of my life.

I really do not get these rich people at all. I know that you are rich but what with that attitude that we have to bow down to you?

I got up early and made porridge thinking I have a sick person in my house, whom I don't even know, on my day off.

He said he was Qin Feng, and I don't want to believe that but I know it's most probably true.

To his disappointment, I am not going to meet him in the future and I am not stopping to help anyone anymore. Everyone is so crazy.

I try to calm down. So what if he doesn't want to eat this heavenly porridge? Okay, it might not be heavenly but it's still good.

I can't let my anger out on food.

I put that Qin Feng on the back of my head and focus on eating my porridge.

My phone starts ringing as I finish doing the dishes.

It's Qian Fan. Now, what am I supposed to tell him?

"Hey!" I say trying my best to act natural because his call just reminded me of the reason I actually called him in the first place.

"You called me yesterday and that too, late in the night. Did something happen?" He asks with concern.

"Oh, it's nothing. Me and my assistant were discussing the decorations and I forgot to look at the time. Sorry for making you worry. It was nothing. " I say hoping that he would buy that lame excuse.

Even I am having a hard time believing that.

So I just called someone in the middle of the night for nothing.

"Oh, it's fine then." I don't know if he is convinced or he is pretending to be but anyway let's leave the matter.

"How are you enjoying your holiday by the way?" He asks.

"I don't know and don't you dare to plan something for me, okay? I already have a lot of work waiting for me." I got a vacation after a long time. I know that he was just kidding but I can't take any risks.

"Do you want to drop by my home at night for dinner? Daiyu misses you a lot."

Daiyu is his cute little six-year-old daughter. God, I love that girl.

"Oh sure, when?" I ask.

"What about today? You can have the rest of the week for yourself then." He said knowing full well how much I love my vacation. It's not like I don't love my job but a holiday is still different.

"Ok, I will be there." I became excited just at the thought of meeting that cute little girl.

"See you."

I hung up the phone after saying goodbye.

I heaved a sigh of relief. Thank god he didn't ask anything. I know that he let that go because he trusts me and I am glad about that.

I don't have many friends. Contrary to when I am at work I don't like to talk that much.

I wasn't like that before but time sure changes everyone.

I reached Qian Fan's house after buying a toy car for Daiyu, and some fruits.

She is really fond of these cars, and I am quite fond of her. Hehe.

Did I mention she is the cutest and smartest kid I ever met?

My mood was uplifted just by thinking about meeting her.

Qian Fan is my senior and with time he became a good friend of mine.

He is just like a brother to me. We used to chat a little bit when I joined TS events, but we hit it off after his wedding. There was some family drama at his wedding but nothing new. I said something in his favor and he decided he would bug me until I let him be my friend.

Our houses are not far from each other, just a 10-minute ride. That was also one of the reasons I thought of calling him last night.

I ring the doorbell of Fan's house.

As soon as the door was opened, I was hugged by a cute little figure.

I bent down and carried her in my arms.

"Did you miss me?" I kissed her on the cheek.

"I missed you so much," Daiyu said in a cute voice.

And I melted.

"Why didn't you come to meet me?" She pouts. If she thinks that she is trying to look angry by making this face then she is extremely wrong.

"I was extremely busy, but look, I came as soon as I got time," I say honestly.

She nods her head.

"What are you thinking in that cute little brain of yours."

"What did you bring for me?" She asked cutely.

I squealed. I want to have a cute little baby like her.

I made a sad face as I wanted to tease her.

"I was in a hurry to meet you so I could not bring you anything," I reply with a sad expression.

"It's ok. I am happy to see you more." Even though she said that her face turned down a little.

"Who taught you to say such a nice thing?" I ask even though I am well aware of her answer.

Her sadness disappeared and she held a mocking expression on her face.

"You taught me, my teacher says that your memory gets better the more you grow, and you can't even remember something which I can." She says innocently while shaking her head.

I burst into laughter.

At her birthday party last year, a kid forgot to give her a gift, and I had to teach her that the thought and person matter more.

She is a quick learner.

"You are learning quite quickly. So my niece is a smart girl huh." I say smugly.

She had a proud expression on her face.

"Look at you, you did say something right. I have such a weak memory that I forgot I got a gift for you."

"What?" She asked excitedly

I put her down and asked her to close her eyes

"That's such a childish move you can give it to me directly." Even though she said that she obediently closed her eyes.

I put the car in her hand and told her to open her eyes

"Wow! you brought me a car" She started jumping excitedly.

"You brought her a car again. Her room is overflooding with all the other cars you gave her earlier." Song Ci, Qian Fan's wife said as she came out of the kitchen.

"It's fine. You are exaggerating, I didn't give her that much and she likes them."

"What have you been using recently? You have become more pretty."

She is a very close friend of mine or I can say the only close friend of mine. She is a little insecure about her appearance. She thinks that she is fat, which I don't understand, and even if she was a little overweight what does that change about her? She can't use most of the products because she is allergic to them.

Even though I don't know why she feels that way, I always try to compliment her whenever I can.

It's not like I am lying or something.

"Stop it, you know I don't use many beauty products." She says, but her face lights up with a small smile.

They are like a little family to me, and they treat me like a family member too.

I don't think I would have been comfortable saying my mind around them otherwise.

"I know you are a natural beauty. Now no need to show off."

"Qian Fan is so lucky to have you," I say and she blushes at my statement.

"But seriously, why did you choose him? Why did you forget about such a gorgeous stunning cute beauty and go to him? I need an answer." I say pointing towards myself.

These were the only compliments I could think of at that moment otherwise I would have added some more to the list.

"I thought you were straight." She states.

"You are just giving an excuse now," I complain. I just like to mess with her.

"You aren't ?" She asked dubiously. Woah. She doesn't always respond to me like this so I am shocked for a while.

"I mean I am, but you could have still asked. I might have changed my mind." I retorted.

She shakes her head regretfully and says "It's too late now."
