After making sure that door was properly shut, Shao Yan turned around and playfully hit Risa on his arm, "Keep your voice down, will you! Do you want me to die of embarrassment?"

Unbeknownst to her, Risa saw that a blush had crept up on her face, making Shao Yan covered in soft pink layer now.

Risa laughed again, and patted her again, "Alright, alright. I'm sorry. I couldn't help it. I just have to tease you," she shrugged, "as long as you're happy, that's all that matters."

Shao Yan who was still pouting her mouth and sulking, finally relented and said, "I know," she paused, and then slowly said carefully, "I am happy now, Sis. He has always been good to me since the beginning. So I feel very happy and also scared at the same time."

Risa saw that Shao Yan suddenly turned solemn, she pursed her lips and patted her shoulder to cheer her up, "Let's not talk here. It's almost lunch time. Let's go. I'm sure you have been missing soup dumplings," she said as she got up from her seat and pulled Shao Yan up along with her.

.....

The lunch crowd today could be considered as normal. The weather was a little warmer in Shanghai the past few days, so not so many people fought a spot to eat dumpling soup with the two of them.

Shao Yan and Risa were seated almost immediately, and since they were a frequent customer here, they knew what they wanted to order right away.

"Thank you for your order. Your food will come out soon. Please enjoy your tea while waiting."

After the server had taken their order, she put a tea pot in front of them and walked away.

"So what happened?" Shao Yan finally could not curb her curiosity anymore.

Risa was pouring the tea for the two of them. When she was done, she lifted her face and looked at Shao Yan.

"Hm. Where should I start?" She tried to think for a while, before saying, "When I found out about you and where you work, I started to look around."

"VP Zhuang was my husband's senior in university, so when they went out for drinks one time, he accidentally told him about your company who was in the middle of pursuing OnScience. And I had been working for OnScience as independent consultant anyway, so I asked for a permanent job there."

She paused to sip her tea, "Helen was hired only slightly after me, and she wanted to get into the China market. So she had been campaigning to get the position here. But I clearly have more experience than her, no it's a no brainer that I would be appointed instead."

She reached out and placed her hand on top of Shao Yan, "Don't worry. She's just a small minded person who made a ruckus because she thought her family has everything."

And then Risa slowly leaned back in her chair, "But her father will not do anything because this is not a Korean drama where you have your power unlimited everywhere in the world. There are rules here."

And then she slowly grinned and clicked her tongue, "Tsk! I will definitely settle her down if there's a chance."

Risa also cracked her knuckles, "It's too bad the security came too soon. Everyone missed the chance of seeing me kicking her sorry ass."

And Shao Yan could not help but drop her jaw at her feisty remarks.

"S- Sis, what did you plan to do?" Shao Yan gingerly asked.

Risa casually leaned forward and picked up her tea cup again, "Me? Oh nothing really," she shrugged, "probably just slam her face to the floor, and make her lose some hair, no biggie," Risa said as she waved her hand around nonchalantly.

.....

Risa scooped some vegetables into Shao Yan's plate, "So, how was your trip? Do you like Japan?"

Shao Yan picked up some rice, and started to chew, "It's relaxing. I realize now that I need more vacation days. I have been working too hard these past two years, I forgot the feeling of actually taking a break."

"En," Risa paused before she quickly continued, "so how many times did you guys do it the first time?"

And Shao Yan successfully choked on her rice.

.....

Shao Yan coughed profusely, tears started to come out from her eyes.

Risa quickly stood up and walked to her side. She started to pat her back slowly, trying to help her to ease down, "Sorry sorry. I didn't think that your first night would be so damn wild that you even shocked at remembering it again."

And Shao Yan coughed even louder and harsher than before.

Shao Yan threw a glare at her side, while still trying to catch some air to breath. 'This sister of her was definitely trying to kill her with her vulgarity!' Shao Yan thought inwardly.

.....

On the other side of town, in a luxurious penthouse in the middle of downtown.

!! CRASH !!

A beautiful crystal vase was flung down to the floor, pieces of the clear glasses shattered to all corners.

"That bitch!"

Helen slumped to the couch and crossed her long legs elegantly. The short leather skirt was slightly raised up to her thighs; showing a beautiful toned muscles.

"How dare she! Who does she think she is? She messed with a Kanagawa, dammit!" She threw both hands in the air and huffed furiously.

"ENOUGH!"

A masculine voice rang harshly in the room; abruptly stopped all further remarks from the brunette beauty who was now sulking even more. Her stunning face was dark and sullen. She was biting her lower lips, trying hard to hold her tears of anger.

"Aren't you ashamed of yourself? You called yourself Kanagawa everywhere you go. But don't you know that what you just did had successfully insulted your whole family?"

Helen very much wanted to retort back, but she held herself back. She lifted her french manicured fingers up in front of her eyes and started to look at each fingernails carefully.
