Chapter 23 - Ah Jiu's First Love
Feng Jiu was almost at the office when Little Mei called her once again.
"Boo hoo~ Ah Jiu~. Help meee~. *sob* S-someone is bullying me here. *sob*"
Little Mei’s crying sounds could be heard. She sounded so pitiful that Feng Jiu’s heart squeezed tightly. "Ah Mei, what exactly happened?? Who bullied you?" Feng Jiu was suddenly transformed into an overly protective sister.
Feng Jiu was indifferent with other people but towards those whom she cared, she would protect them at all costs, like a mother lion protecting her cubs.
"Ah Jiu... C-come here.. *sob*"
"Okay. Okay. Where are you?"
"I-I was hold captive h-here *sob* at the airport’s s-security office. *sob* they said... they said, they will sue me!! Waahhhh!! Ah Jiu~"
"Shh.. It’s okay. Don’t cry. I’m here. Nothing will happen to you. Stay there, okay?"
"*sob* Mmm.. Okay.. I-I’ll wait for you. Come quickly."
"Okay. I’ll hang up. Behave." Feng Jiu immediately stepped on the brakes and made a U-turn. Few minutes later, Feng Jiu arrived at the airport. She walked towards the security department and went inside the office. There, she saw Little Mei sitting on the chair. She looked like she was a trying to argue with someone. She was pouting. Due to anger, her face had turned into scarlet red like a ripened tomato, ready to harvest.
"H-how dare you!! Why would you sue me? My surname is ’Xiao’! I’m the precious princess of Infinite Airlines!"
"Miss Xiao, my client does not wish to have a conflict with Xiao family, but you have crossed the line and assaulted my client." The man with eyeglasses spoke professionally.
Feng Jiu’s brows wrinkled. ’I knew it. This bratty princess made trouble again.’
"Ah Mei." Before it escalates to another level, Feng Jiu immediately went towards Xiao Mei.
"Ah Jiu~ boo hoo... You’re here."
Like a kid who finally found her savior, Xiao Mei raised her head and cried pitifully. She hugged Feng Jiu and said, "Ah Jiu... Look.. *sob* they are bullying me.. Boo hoo~ the Lu Family is bullying the Xiao Family.. *sob*"
’This Lu Family again? What is wrong with them?? They always bully the weak.’ Feng Jiu’s eyes narrowed when she heard that the man was a representative of someone from the Lu Family. "I am Feng Jiu of Feng International. On behalf of my friend, I would like to apologize."
"I am the legal representative of Mr. Lu of Lu Corporation, Wen Tao." said the man with the eyeglasses.
Feng Jiu and WenTao shook hands. WenTao faced Xiao Mei and said, "Miss Xiao, my client does not want to make this a big issue. If you could properly apologize and promise not to harass my client again, Mr. Lu won’t continue to press you any charges."
Feng Jiu looked at Xiao Mei. "Harassment? Ah Mei, what did you do?"
Xiao Mei averted her eyes and looked down. "Ah Mei.."
"I was just... I was just trying to get back what he stole."
Xiao Mei’ whispered, she sounded like a mosquito.
Feng Jiu, who was near her fortunately heard her words. "Stole? What did he steal?" Feng Jiu suddenly eyed Wen Tao as if telling him that it was his client who was the offender in the first place.
"He stole... He stole swhshwh..." Feng Jiu was not able to hear Xiao Mei’s words this time.
"Huh? What did you say?"
"I said he stole my heart!!!" Xiao Mei was puffing her cheeks because of shame and anger.
Feng Jiu, who was currently staring daggers at WenTao, froze. She snapped her head back at Xiao Mei. She glared at her and said, "Apologize."
"Noo!" Xiao Mei stubbornly refused.
"Do you want me to leave you here or accompany you to jail? You choose." Xiao Mei suddenly felt scared.
"Noo~ Ah Jiu.. Don’t leave me here alone with these bullies."
"Apologize."
Xiao Mei glared at the man with eyeglasses. Then she grudgingly said, "I’m sorry."
WenTao wanted to say, ’Is this how you apologize? So unwilling.’ but before he could say it, Feng Jiu already beat him to it.
"Won’t Mr. Lu give face to Feng and Xiao Family? I hope your client won’t take it to heart. He is a man, I’m sure he knows how to be a gentleman."
WenTao was suddenly choked to death. If he pressed this issue, aside from not giving face to the two families, wouldn’t that mean his client does not know how to be a gentleman?
WenTao could not make his own decision. He called his client and informed him first. After a few conversations, the man with eyeglasses ended the call. He then looked at Feng Jiu and said, "My client accepted Miss Xiao’s apology, Miss Feng, hoping that... Miss Xiao would.. *cough* uphold her promise."
Feng Jiu glared at Xiao Mei. Xiao Mei’s eyes suddenly wondered everywhere, not meeting her eyes.
"Ah Mei..." Xiao Mei grunted.
"Fine. But I want to know the name of that man." Xiao Mei smiled brightly.
’I must know his name at all cost!’ Although he knows Xiao Mei was just fishing some information, WenTao doesn’t have a choice but to answer.
"His name is Lu Min------" Suddenly, one of the airplanes landed on the airport, making Feng Jiu unable to hear what WenTao said, but she did not care. She didn’t want to be associated with anyone from the Lu Corporation.
They were already outside when Xiao Mei suddenly suggested, "Ah Jiu~ I wanna go to your house!"
Feng Jiu stopped her tracks. She immediately turned down Xiao Mei’s request, fearing that she would see MinFeng there. "No. Let’s just go at the nearest café."
"Nooo~ I wanna go and see your house!! Pretty please~ mmm? mmm~" Using all of her aegyo[2], Xiao Mei acted like a little spoiled brat, swaying Feng Jiu’s arm. Having no choice, Feng Jiu decided to call MinFeng to ’go away’ and escape first. But he was not answering his phone.
’Maybe he was busy and outside the house?’ Thinking of MinFeng’s disappearance once in a while, Feng Jiu was pretty sure he was not at home.
"Fine. But you better behave or else I will abandon you."
Xiao Mei Nodded fast, making herself dizzy.
-------
MinFeng has fallen asleep inside his room. He stood up and went down to the kitchen to cook.
Feng Jiu would be returning home an hour later, so he must prepare the food early.
When he was walking down the stairs, he heard two voices speaking. One was from Feng Jiu and the other one was from an unfamiliar woman whom he didn’t know.
He wanted to go back to his room, thinking that Feng Jiu would get angry at him if someone saw him at her house, when he heard the woman said, "YanFei gege missed you.. Aiyaa~ Ah Jiu, wasn’t YanFei gege your first love?"
MinFeng suddenly wanted to kill that bastard called YanFei gege.
’Another fly trying to snatch what’s mine!!’ MinFeng unceremoniously walked towards them and kissed Feng Jiu on the cheeks.
"Love, you have returned?"
Xiao Mei’s eyes widened.
