Just then someone reach out for her arm. She jump in surprise and turn around. A man greet her with a big smile, caught her arm.

Her heart race ' Why is he here?'

" It's you right ? Remember we meet at the supermarket! " Wu Feng Yuan gave his biggest smile when he saw the goddess. He was on the way out of the building when he saw her, he never thought he would see her again.

Zhou Qin Yang smiles and calm her surprise heart "Yes, the pizza guy. You work here?"

"Yes, I work at the Lee Corporation. You are working here as well? I don't think I have seen you before." he thought hard. Every time a new employee whether is just some small clerk or a big position, Lee Jun Ting would always ask Feng Yuan to go inspect them personally no matter which office branch it is.

Qin Yang look at the tall high skyscraper, Lee Corporation's buildings may not be the tallest in cities but the design always gave a memorable impression. Sometimes people would even use it as a landmark, Qin Yang wondered who design it. "I'm applying today. I just finish my interview." she replies him.

Awhile ago, Feng Yuan noticed she was having trouble calling for a taxi so he booked one before greeting her. A taxi then stop beside them, Zhou Qin Yang look at the man in confusion. He smiled" It's for you. I saw that you needed one."

"Thank you. This is a bit.." she hoped this guy isn't trying to earn her heart. Feng Yuan saw her reaction and immediately denied " Oh no! Don't misunderstand. It's to repay the other day for the pizza. You might think I'm creepy, I already have someone in my heart."

Zhou Qin Yang felt relief, she didn't want to cause a conflict with a friendly stranger " Sorry. I tend to be conscious of things like that." She was so used to people flirt and hitting on her back in middle and high school, she can see through people sometimes.

She open the taxi door and was about to close it but it was stop by a hand " Wait. I haven't got your name yet." Feng Yuan just remember.

" Zhou Qin Yang. You can call me Qin Yang."

" Qin Yang, my name is Wu Feng Yuan. Nice to meet you. I hope you will get the job you interview for." he smiles. Zhou Qin Yang's social anxiety somehow didn't act up while talk to this man perhaps because of his sincere personality made her put her guards down. She thank him before closing the door shut.

Feng Yuan waved goodbye to her. The reason why he was attracted to her was her looks but that is only half the reason. She seem to have an aura around her that seem similar like Lee Jun Ting. Not personality wise but his guts tells him that her colour, seems like her colour can blend into his best friend's like painting a beautiful picture on a white canvas.

The taxi then departure. When Feng Yuan turn around and head back to the building, he saw a man ran out of the building and look around like he was looking for something desperate. Feng Yuan squint his eyes and found it unbelievable when he saw Lee Jun Ting trying to catch his breath. 'What made him run like that?' he jog towards him.

"Hey, what are you doing? You are the president of Lee Corporation, shouldn't you like care about your image a bit?" he adjust his friend's suit and tie. Lee Jun Ting's eyes is still looking around the main road for signs of her.

"Just now, did you see a woman? Wearing a blue blouse and beige skirt?" he look at Feng Yuan in the eyes, hoping for answers. Wu Feng Yuan was shock by Lee Jun Ting's question, this is the first time he ask a question about a woman. 'Did the sun rise on the west today?!' he touch Lee Jun Ting's forehead.

Lee Jun Ting look at him confused and slap his hand away. Feng Yuan held his hand and mumble" There is no fever. Maybe he hit his head somewhere."

" Wu Feng Yuan! There is nothing wrong with me. Answer my question." he glare at him coldly. Feng Yuan didn't dare to provoke him further and denied but then he noticed earlier Zhou Qin Yang seem to wearing what Lee Jun Ting just describe. 'Could it be?' he look at Jun Ting that ran pass him. He then stop Jun Ting with his hand in his face " Wait! Was her hair braided on the side?"

Lee Jun Ting felt a light in his heart " Yes. Where did you see her?"

"Her name is Zhou Qin Yang?" he further investigate this man. He is curious what she did that made this person run. "How did you know her name again? " he look at him disappointed but not surprise because actually this is not Feng Yuan's first time hearing this name.

" I sent her off just now. She was the goddess I was talking about the other night when I bought dinner for you! She told me her name was Zhou Qin Yang so..." then Feng Yuan realise something didn't seem right, why did he feel this name...

He gasps and held Lee Jun Ting's shoulder " She is that girl you were looking for 7 years ago! No way right?! When we investigate, there was not even a trace of her!"

"Congratulations scatterbrain. You remembered." Lee Jun Ting turn around and head back to the building. Feng Yuan still standing frozen in front of the building, trying to process everything that just happen awhile ago. Why didn't he remember ?
