CHAPTER 283

"As a matter of fact my dear, yes and no." Li Jing's smile reached her eyes as she spoke. She was ready to help her friend find what her heart really wanted, one way or the other.

"What do you mean by that?" Yin Lifen asked. She was not exactly getting what Li Jing meant by what she said.

"Simply put, I am happy we tried getting on the right foot today by doing proper introductions. That aside, we are also here for business. I called for this brief meeting in order to share us into a two man group and assign each group a specific part of the hotel to visit and check oiut how their things work and what they have."

'Simply put, a survey," Kim Fan cut in and explained.

"Yes, thank you Kim Fan. A survey. That is what it is."

A broad smile appeared on Kim Fan's face. He was glad that he was appreciated by her.

"Now, due to some events, I would be dividing the group this way. Kim Fan and Yin Lifen would be a team while myself and Jia Huang would form the second team."

"But…"

"No objections." As she spoke, she looked at Yin Lifen as though silently telling her she meant no objections from her. "Everything is for everyone's own good."

"But I want to team up with you," Yin Lifen protested irrespective of the warning her friend gave her.

"I am sorry, Fen Fen but we need to work together and from there we can produce different results."

"Yes Yin Lifen," Kim Fan chipped in. "I am sorry you have to team up with me but as you know, what one fails to see, the other can. Besides, it is not going to be lioke this all through."

"EWhat do you mean?"

"Simple, today we have to team up like this, tomorrow it would be a different thing entirely," Kim Fan explained to her.

"Ohh…"

"Yes dear, ohh. So, I am guessing, in other to mix knowledge up and not let friends be together, it would always be a mix between team A and team B. One male and one female."

"What?"

"Yes, in other sense, since today you are with me now," Kim Fan pointed at himself. "Tomorrow, you would have to do survey with hottie over there." He pointed at his friend and then returned his attention to Yin Lifen just so he could watch her bewildered expression.

"Hell no!"

"Hell yes," Kim Fan added.

Without bothering with him, Yin Lifen turned around to look at Li Jing. "Li Jing!"

"I am sorry girlfriend but this arrangement had been made since. It did not start now."

"But you can still change it," Yin Lifen argued.

She did not want to hear anything Li Jing was going to say concerning the issue.

"I am sorry but honestly I have changed it. You are supposed to go with him today for the tour but when I saw the problem of yesterday, I decided to swap both days."

"But…"

"I am sorry, Yin Lifen but grandfather himself was the person who had arranged this. He felt there should be a mix from the two companies."

"Why didn't you tell me all these knowing how I was."

"Hey calm down, Fen Fen. I never knew anything about your relationship and I am only following grandfather's instructions. Relax it would only be for hours. You can choose to do it independently or together but I suggest we keep things professional and take private matters aside."

"I do not have any problem. I can pair up with anyone," Jia Huang chipped in his opinion.

"Thank you. And now if there is no further complaint, I would like for us to begin our tour."

Li Jing looked around waiting for who to raise the first disagreeing hand but none did. She clapped her hands in front of her as her smile enchantingly spread across her lips.

"Who is excited? Now, time to take off. We would meet here in four hour time to get lunch and take a breather."

"Let's go, Yin Lifen." Kim Fan extended his hand to her but she barely shook him and then walked ahead.

"Wait, I have not yet told you the part of the hotel to cover," Li Jing said, bringing their attention back to the matter on ground.

"No need Li Jing, I know the plan and that is why it is good for each of us to be in a team."

"Yeah. Thanks Kim Fan. Watch over her."

She did not wait to hear his response and pulled Jia Huang's hand, bringing him with her to the opposite direction.

She knew her friend would be mad, confused and all at what was happening but she intended on giving her the fresh air while still using the opportunity to talk with Jia Huang about their relationship.

Soon their tour began. They moved from one place to another, till they got to the resort itself proper and took their time to admire the scenery.

All these time, Li Jing had not bothered to say anything relating to Yin Lifen to Jia Huang as she knew it was a sensitive topic for both parties.

She had been waiting for the perfect time, place and opportunity especially when or where he would be calm.

Right now, the heat from the hot spring was satisfying and relaxing. It was what he needed and she needed as well.

She looked the part as she looked dashing in her thigh high blue bomb shot with a red crop-tank top and a shawl that was tied on her waist over her sexy outfit.

Her red small sandals with sparkling gems on it made her legs look slender and attractive, further announcing her outfit, bringing her out like a celebrity.

If not for the fact that Jia Huang already had his heart set on Yin Lifen, Li Jing made such a nice lady for any man to want to court.

Nevertheless, that did not stop him from complimenting her.
