CHAPTER 339

"I wonder which boyfriend would keep up with that attitude, little sister."

"Huizhong!" Hao Zhi Ruo yelled forgetting where she was.

"What? I feel disappointed that it took you forever to know I was the one, Zhi Ruo,' Hao Huizhong voiced out his displeasure.

"Hehhee," She scratched her hair and smiled firmly to herself. "Brother, do not be like that. It is not like I did not recognize your voice but my day at work just started yet it is so annoying."

"Hmm, is that an excuse or what/"

"Ofr course you know it is not any excuse dearest brother. You know what I am facing. If I was not nagry, I would not react like that," Hao Zhi Ruo defended herself.

"Tsk, to me this is the sister I know, always on edge and ready to pounce on her prey. I am surprised though that you can work under somebody."

"Oh please. I am not that bad, my dear. If I can survive under this boss of mine, then I believe I can survive under any boss."

"Not just any, trust me. Perhaps you may not be able to survive under Bai Qing Mei."

'Who cares about all these ladies. I am talking about a male CEO."

"Can you ever be any more or less shameless, Zhi Ruo? Hahaha…"

Both of them burst out laughing for some time before they calmed down. Each one of them had a nice smile on their faces without even knowing what the other was doing.

"I have missed you," Hao Huizhong confessed.

"I thought your revenge was much more powerful to you than I was and that was why you left?" Her smile immediately faded away.

"That wasn't it. Yes, it was more important to me but it wasn't the reason why I left without taking you with me. I did not want to implicate you if things were to go wrong. It would hurt me to know that you wewre hurt in my quest for vengeance."

"Sigh! I know. I know but it still hurt not hearing from you for some time now. It was like you were totally gone, gone from the face of the world."

'I could never leave you, Zhi Ruo. You and I, we are one. You are my joy and light. I cherish you with all my being. You are my one and only sister, of course I would pamper you and never leave you. Understand?"

'Yeah." She nodded her head like he could see her.

"Great."

"So what's up? Why did you call?"

"Hey, why are you making it seem like I only called after all these while because io wanted something? Can't I call to greet my sister again?"

"Well you called to greet me but also because you wanted something or have you forgotten that you said you would not contact me until you have successfully carried out your revenge?"

True, he had indeed said that to his sister. He almost forgot about that and the only reason he called now was because indeed he needed something.

Although he said he did not want to contact her to prevent anything linking between her and himself but he always did check up on her and ask someone to tail her while giving him daily update on her wellbeing and also he did send her money from time to time for her up keep.

All of these she knew that he was doing it. She wasn't a no brainer as well. She was intelligent and she knew someone had been tailing her since the first month he was assigned the task biut she said nothing all these while.

She knew it was her older brother's little way of showing he cared for her. Regardless it still did not beat actually care, like seeing him, staying with him, doing things for her and cooking together.

Those were the things she had wished more than anything with him but she could not get what she wanted. No one could actually.

"Calm down sis. I am so sorry. I am so sorry for leaving you all alone."

"Nah, it is okay. I have my memories of you and mother to keep me going. God bless her soul."

"And that is why I am doing this."

"But you know mother never wanted you to seek any revenge for her? All she wanted was for you to be at peace and live life to the fullest," Hao Zhi Ruo tried to reason with her brother.

"Then why should I allow him to enjoy it all? Mother was there first. She suffered without anyone looking at her except for father who took her in and tried to love her."

"It is okay. We should not bask in the memory any longer. Those are sad memories we do not need now. So tell me, how can I help my big brother?"

":It is quite simple dear. I need you to help me get in contact with your boss."

"What?"

"Yes, I want to set up a date for the two of us."

"You what!" Hao Zhi Ruo had still not gotten over the shock of the first words he said when he bombarded her small ears with another abominable word.

"Calm down."

'No, you calm down brother. Do you know what you want to do? I am so not sure you do? Since when did you like her? Have you two met before and even if you do, I do not think you know her well enough. She is not the kind of person I would advise brother to date."

"Hahhaaa…" At first Hao Huizhong did not quite understand what she was talking about until she said that and he burst into a peal of laughter.

It truly was funny to think that his sister thought he liked Li Xiu and was interested in dating her. "Hahaa hahaa…"

The only girl on his mind and in his heart was none other than Bai Qing Mei. He had liked her since the day they met but just like him, she was hell bent on ruining Dream Star Corporations that she threw him no glance.
