"Are we seriously doing this right now? You are just going to pretend it isn't happening," Xiaomeng continued but the next thing they heard is Yu Yan slamming her cutlery on the table, attracting the attention of others in the canteen.

"I am full," she turned to Xiaomeng.

"Will you like to take my seat, after all, you always want what belongs to me," she smiled faintly and stood up from her seat like she was about to confront Xiaomeng.

"I am also full, why don't we go to the park why we still have some time?" he proposed to Yu Yan who nodded in agreement, then the duo walked away while Xiaomeng glared at term until they were out of sight, that last part of her sentence infuriated her.

{I will surely snap that confidence out of you tonight,}

"So, is this engagement really happening?" Jia Yu queried

"It is not what you think…" he tried to defend himself seeing their accusing gazes directed at him.

"I am extremely disappointed in you, it seems like Ji Chen was right, I just hope you didn't just waste over five years of her life," she slammed her cutlery on the table and stood up then they all followed suit, leaving him alone with Xiaomeng.

He pursed his lips and turned to the other side with his head buried in his palms, he was now extremely angry towards Xiaomeng, but he didn't want to flip out on her in front of every one present in the cafeteria , he stood up from his seat aggressively attracting the attention of those in the cafeteria. He moved closer to her and looked at her with anger written all over his face.

She unfolded her arms, seeing the look in his eyes.

"We will talk about this later," he pushed the chair blocking his way and walked out of the canteen angrily.

She turned to watch him leave the canteen with her mouth agape, the look in his eyes, it almost seemed as though he was going to hit her, she turned around her when she heard everyone murmuring.

She stomped her feet and exited the cafeteria.

It was already dark when the important and well-known surgeons from prominent families that were invited started getting off work, including An Ke and co.

Since Yu Yan was scheduled to leave work last and hand over her duty to team B of the general surgery department, she handed over the duty and left for the parking lot but as she opened her car and entered, she dropped her bag on the other seat then she laid her head on the headboard and sighed.

She could feel the muscles in her body sore.

"You seem really tired,"

She was startled by the voice she had just heard, she grabbed the pen in her pocket and leaned closer to threaten whoever it is, but the person held her wrist up.

"Why is your reflex always so fast?" he remarked, tilting his lips teasingly.

She exhaled, recognising the person seating on the seat next to the driver's seat.

"How did you get in here?" she dropped the pen, but he was still holding her wrist.

He smiled broadly but he noticed someone's presence, he looked at the side mirror where he saw Chen Kai standing a little bit away from the car, watching them.

{He really doesn't have any trust in you}

"You haven't answered my question, what are you looking at?" she leaned over to see the mirror at his side, but they ended up being too close to each other, he held her face to stop her from seeing him.

"I am quite skilled when it comes to breaking into cars," he quickly responded.

"So, you broke into my car without my permission?"

"Have you seen anyone get permission to break into someone else's car, that is why it is called 'breaking into'".

"I really can't be bothered to argue with you, I have a party to get to," she snapped her wrist from his grip and moved over to her seat, Han Chen took the chance to look into the side mirror again, he smirked seeing the jealous expression on his rival's face.

He originally didn't think Chen Kai was so easy to beat but seeing how things has been going smoothly, he doubted he won't be able to win Yu Yan's heart once again.

"I am also going there," he informed.

"You, why?"

"I did a god job in supervising the operation the last time, so I was given a special invitation, moreover, I am also part of the Jia family so it only makes sense that they give me that much importance," he answered.

"Oh, that makes sense," she pressed the start button and was about to start driving but he held her hand.

"What is it this time?" 

"You are tired, let me drive," 

"Great," then they changed seats.

"I am quite surprised that you agreed easily,"

"I told you I don't have time to waste, I am late, I don't want to make a bad impression," 

He started driving.

"But you are still wearing your office wear, you are not planning on going to the party like this right?"

"I am going to change in the car,"

"I didn't think you are that…"

"What are you thinking? You are going to get out of the car as soon as we get there," she scoffed and turned to the window as they passed a bridge.

"I am guessing something important is going to happen tonight," he gave her a side glance, hinting at something she is very well aware of.

"If you want to ask, just ask directly,"

"Is he getting his parent's permission today?"

"Yes, I really don't know why I easily tell you these things, I am not the type of person to let just anyone know what is going on in my life," she answered then she pushed back her hair and turned to him.

"I am not just anyone, I am your friend and I guess an anomaly at that, and it so happens that I am also a good listener," he responded, focusing his attention on the road.

"That's true, you always poke your nose but not too far,"

Both smiled at her comment.

In no time, they got to the Chen's mansion, he parked the car in a secluded place so she can comfortable change even though the car is tinted.

"Thanks but wait…are you going to the party in a causal shirt and trouser?" she just noticed that he was also wearing the same thing he was wearing all day.

"I though you wouldn't notice, my tuxedo is in the boot," he answered, pointing at the boot, she wasn't surprised that he managed to open the boot, so she didn't bother asking how he managed to open it.

"You can get out now, I suppose you also have to get changed," 

"That tone…bye," he exited the car, she opened the boot for him to get his tuxedo then he waved her bye and left with his tuxedo to change in the male's bathroom after being directed by a servant in the mansion.

In no time, they were both done with changing, as soon as they both stepped out (Han Chen, out of the bathroom and Yu Yan out of her car,) all eyes were on them, they hadn't entered the hall yet.

"You are done," Han Chen remarked, seeing her at hallway before they get to the hall, she stopped afar and glanced at him with a smile on her lips, she looked him down from the top of his head to his shoes.

He looked stunning even in a not too classy black jacket, her smile widened the more she looked at him.

(didn't he say he was going to change into a tuxedo)

She walked closer to him.

"You look really stunning," he remarked.

"I see you really like seeking attention, why aren't you in a tuxedo like you said, your casual dressing will make you odd,"

"I am not really into tuxedos, I lied, lets go in, we can't risk you missing your special moment," he arched his arm for her to link her arm, but she stared at his arm with a demeaning look.

She slammed his arm down then she smiled at him again thinking he was joking around, both then walked through the entrance.

"Yu Yan is here," Jia Yu announced…. too loud, everyone turned towards the entrance.

They all looked at the duo with 'wow' written on their faces, her full-length spaghetti black dress with a simple hairdo and few strands of hair at both sides gave her an elegant look, she had no jewellery on except for the small silver earring.

While Han Chen just looked causal and chic, his simple dressing couldn't hide his handsome and stunning look even his long hair made them swoon over him more.

Apart from her friends, everyone thought they are couples, or they have something special between them seeing how well they complimented each other.

She was already getting embarrassed seeing their eyes on her, she cleared her throat and lowered her head then she walked together with Han Chen to the table the others were gathered around.
