Chapter 58 - Happy Evening.
Yang Dao was pushing his bike while the two girls followed him in silence. They were headed to the supermarket to buy some groceries. The boy was happy today. He was whistling a song as he was pushing his bike. Sasha asked, "Yang Dao, how did you ride the bike so fast? Does it not hurt your legs?"
Yang Dao stopped whistling and shook his head, he replied, "I train regularly, plus today the wind was very helpful. It saved me from too much exhaustion." following his words a gust blew naturally. It was as if the wind was happy with his words.
The three people came to a supermarket. Yang Dao locked his bike on a bike stand and walked inside with the girls. He asked them, "Can you help me? It would take too much time otherwise."
The girls nodded and then Yang Dao sent them to different sections after knowing what they can select without any problem. Sasha was in charge of the condiments, Kiya was to pick up sauces and pickles, while the boy went to select some vegetables and relatively fresh fish and chicken meet. They all met after thirty minutes. After paying the bills they left. Yang Dao placed the carry bag on the shaft of his bike.
He looked at the two girls, "You guys can take a taxi and go ahead if you want to."
Kiya and Sasha shook their heads and they followed Yang Dao. The girls noticed that Yang Dao had a faint smile on his lips as he gazed at the world around him. His footsteps slowed down when he saw some children playing in a park as they walked. Kiya asked, "Dao, do you like children?"
Yang Dao smiled as he replied, "They remind me of some little ones in the orphanage. Let's go, or it will be late."
Soon the three people arrived at the Sapphire lake residency. The guards greeted Yang Dao, "Greetings, Young Master."
Yang Dao replied with a smile and then said, "My teammates will be coming in some time, can you let them in?"
The guard replied, "Rest assured, Young Master."
Yang Dao left there with a smile. As soon as he entered the parking he saw two men, about to get inside a car. They stopped and greeted Yang Dao, "Good evening, Young Master."
Yang Dao smiled and asked, "Are you two people assigned by Sister Yun?"
The two people nodded, one of them had blonde hair and brown eyes, seemed very young. While the other was a middle-aged man with slightly greyish hair. Yang Dao talked to them for a few minutes about how the programming is advancing. The blonde guy called, William, replied, "Sir, the system is responsive, in a week we will have a beta version."
Yang Dao nodded and the two of them were sent away. He carried a big bag of groceries in his arms and walked inside the elevator. First, he went to the top floor of his own house. After making the two girls sit down in the living room. He said, "I will go downstairs for a while. Professor Dew and one of her students are working here on a project. So, I should call them all to dine as well."
The girls were surprised to see that Yang Dao was dealing with Professor Dew. But they did not ask anything. Yang Dao left and came down a floor. He knocked on the door. After a few moments, the door flung open. It was Niya, she scowled, "If it isn't the Young Master. Did you come here to humiliate us more?"
Yang Dao frowned, his good mood was gone. He walked inside and passed by her, completely ignoring her. The girl was pissed and before she could say anything Professor Kylie walked out of the Processing Room. Yang Dao spoke, "Profesor, I apologize to you for my behavior this morning. But I don't feel guilty about it. In my orphanage, we were taught to respect other people's wishes and privacy. I grew up like that. Never has anyone dared to inside my room unannounced. I do not like people to walk into my personal space until they are very close to me."
His calm voice made Professor Dew feel even more guilty. She was about to speak when Nika snorted, "Tell us what you need from us and go away."
Yang Dao took a deep breath, "He said to the professor. Today I broke the record of climbing the ruby mountain. The cycling club is invited for dinner. I thought I should invite you as well."
Kylie Dew sighed and nodded. She said, "I apologize to you for walking inside your room without permission. Thank you, I will come to the dinner."
Yang Dao glanced at Nika and said, "I don't discriminate between man and woman. If you do not know what courtesy is. Then first learn and then talk. But the next time you act all cocky in front of me I will break your face with my slap." the calmness was replaced by a chill that sent down shivers to Nika.
She immediately became quiet. Yang Dao Talked to the Professor about the development of the program when she said that it is his project and he will have to complete it himself if he wants to pass this semester. Yang Dao agreed with a smile. Then he asked them to come up after changing and left. After the dinner, Professor Kylie will be going back to the University dorm.
Yang Dao came back upstairs and he rushed straight to the kitchen. He started to prepare marinations and clean up the meat. Kiya came by his side and said, "I know how to cook, so can I help you?"
Yang Dao nodded with a smile. He had a good impression of Kiya. She was a sensible girl, plus she also helped him when he did not bring a notebook. Yang Dao was like a person who would return the smallest of favor 100 times more. The same was done in case of grievance too. The boy started to cook. Suddenly the door bell rang.
Sasha shouted, "I got it."
Yang Dao replied, "Thank you very much."
Sasha opened the door and saw Professor Dew and Nika standing in front of her. She was surprised but not too much. Nika asked her with a frown, "Why are you here?"
Sasha replied, "It has nothing to do with you, right? Miss Orlenko."
Nika raised an eyebrow, "You say that as if you are not an Orlenko."
Sasha chuckled, "I am an Orlenko but not the one who is famous at home." her casual replied was a knife to Nika's heart. Nika was known for her rash and arrogant personality. So she was more famous and the sisters had a grievance between them.
Sasha did not wait for her reply and took them inside. Kiya came out fo the kitchen wearing an apron. She carried a glass of juice in her hand. She placed them on the table and left after greeting the professor. Nika also exchanged a smile with her.
Soon the door bell rang again, this time the cycling club entered the house. Yang Dao played the host role very well and got them all some drinks as they waited for the food. Icarus was a different story though. He was stunned as soon as he saw Professor Dew sitting on a couch. He dragged Yang Dao inside the kitchen and said after a sigh, "Brother will forgive you if you honestly tell me, do you have a leg with professor Dew?"
Yang Dao was stunned hapless, he wondered if this guy had a brain anomaly. He shook his head and said, "I do not. She is here to work on a computer operations program with me."
Icarus smiled brightly, "I still have a chance to get her heart. Wish me luck, I will try my best."
Soon the food was done, instead of dining table every one just ate while holding their dishes as they sat in the living room. The atmosphere was very lively. Icarus suddenly asked, "Profesor Dew, you are such a beauty then how can you don't have boys bothering you?"
Professor Dew smiled and said, "I don't go out much. I am more focused to my work so they cannot disturb me."
Icarus continued, "So professor what kind of a man would you like?"
The beauty replied, "Man with a calm temperament, not much of a talker, so that he can listen to me. That is all I have in mind for now."
The cycling club started to chuckle and slowly it became a burst of laughter. Yang Dao was not much different then girl when he heard them all laughing. He wanted to ask what happened when the door bell rang. Yang Dao stood up from his seat and came to the door. He saw a face in front of him that made him smile wide.
He said, "Sister Yun..."
Outside the door stood Feng Yun with a bright smile on her face. She wanted to surprise Yang Dao, and it worked too. Yang Dao was very happy to see her coming over.
