Entangled: Crisscross Chapter 107
Advertisement
When Sera walked out of the teahouse, she had a beaming smile on her face. Fifteen percent of Tan Enterprise will soon be transferred under her name. Even Mr. Tan said that this share was bigger than the share than the rest of his family's shares.
But then again, she was an investment.
The fact that she could do something to keep his son self was reassuring to Mr. Tan.
Sera believed that the old man already talked to a few other people and most of them said that completely hiding someone's social media was simply impossible.
In this world, the only way for you to hide is if you quit social media and live underground.
Now that she had accomplished one of her priorities, she went back to the house with Dalgo and talked to Mr. Liu about the transfer of shares. After tomorrow, she was planning on leaving Cone Lands and finally going back to Pane City for her start-up business.
After all, Xu Je'er's nagging is really giving her random headaches.
"You plan to go back to Pane City?"
"Yes." She wanted to ask him if he was going back, too. After all, Chris had been staying with her in Cone Lands using the excuse for letting her know the truth. "I no longer have business here. After all, I am not going to be a part of the Zhang Corp anymore." Plus, she already builds some connections. Using Mr. Tan's influence, she could still destroy them even when she was away.
"Hmmm… then I am coming with you."
"Oh? You no longer have business abroad?" She tried to gauge his expression. As usual, she saw nothing.
"I am taking my business with me."
"Ah."
"And you will leave Mr. Lan here?"

"Yes."
"Oh…"
She used the knife and cut another piece of her steak.
"Dalgo said… you went shopping earlier?"
Sera stilled. She told Dalgo to tell Chris that she went shopping. It was a test. She wanted to know if Dalgo would tell Chris about her sneaking out.
"Yes, I did."
"And did you buy anything?"
"Yes. I bought new heels." She couldn't lie about this because he saw her walking using the same heels that she wore while she had her meeting with Mr. Tan.
"Really?"
"Really." She wondered if he knew anything.
Suspicion flashed in his eyes. "You didn't buy anything for me?"
"Why would I buy anything for you?"
"Isn't that something a wife should do when she shops?"
"…" Should she start another argument with this obnoxious man again? "Well, then you went abroad. Did you buy something for me?" She sounded so petty, but she liked it.
"Of course I did."
She raised an eyebrow, surprised at his quick answer. "You did?"
"As I said, I am your husband and I will act like one. I'm not like other people who couldn't even buy a pair of jeans for her husband."
What the hell? "Then… what did you buy for me?" She wondered if this was something extravagant, like that romantic dinner that he just did.
"It's in your closet."
"Really? How come I didn't find it earlier?"
"You totally changed your wardrobe. I wasn't expecting that you are going to wear something in colors. I put it next to your black-and-white clothing."
"Really?" He even knew that she liked wearing black and white. She snorted inwardly. The more he talked to Chris, the more she could see similarities between Chris and Cross. Moreover, she couldn't deny the fact that she felt really familiar around him. It was as if, they have known each other for a long time. "What is it?" Her eyes couldn't help but glance at the bracelet that Cross gave her. It looked really pretty under the chandelier above their dining table.

She recalled how Xu Je'er thought it was custom made sense she couldn't find the same design in the market. Xu Je'er really liked the bracelet and wanted to buy the same one for herself. Unfortunately, she couldn't find the design anywhere.
While there were a lot of bracelets that initially looked like it, Xu Je'er pointed out that the traces of the jeweler who made it were too distinct and unique. It is very hard to imitate it.
Sera actually felt happy that time. She thought that the bracelet was something that Cross bought for her in one of her travels abroad. After all, he couldn't really afford some custom-made jewels.
However, if Chris and Cross were the same people, then that would explain the origin of this beautiful bracelet.
"You should check it yourself. It won't be a surprise if I tell you."
"But I didn't buy you anything when I was shopping… ah! I was wrong." Sera straightened her back. "I actually bought something and just forgot about it."
Chris' eyes lit up as he beamed. "Really?"
"Yes. I just forgot about it."
"Then… can you give it to me now?"
"Of course!" Sera said. She stood and went to her office to grab her handbag. Then she went back to the dining room.
"What is it?" Chris asked.
"It's something that I really love."
"Really?"
She nodded as she slowly opened her bag and handed him a moon cake.
"This is— "
"This moon cake is the best one in Isul City. It's a White lotus moon cake! I love it — Whoa…" She stopped talking when Chris suddenly pulled her towards his lap. "What is… what are you doing?"
"I know it's white lotus moon cake I can smell it."
"Eh?" Why was he smiling? She didn't actually buy the mooncake for him, but for herself. She was starving after taking all that walk in high heels and saw the store. However, she forgot to eat it because she had to change her clothes on her way back. "What is happening?" she asked.
"Do you know what a round moon cake means?"
"Hm? That… I didn't ask. I just knew it's delicious."
"Of course."
"What does it mean?" Is this some random legend that she should know?
"A round mooncake means togetherness and completeness. Giving this to me means… we will be together and that we complete each other."
"…" What? She gave him a look. "Where did you hear that from?" Despite frowning, she didn't do anything to move out of his lap. No… it wasn't that she had no intention of moving. It's just that. She couldn't move.
His hands were resting on her navel, locking her into him.
