At Hu Yutian's office,
Grabbing his phone from Zhang Ziyi's hand Hu Yutian frowned, "Ziyi why did you say that?"
"What? " Ziyi asked feining innocence.
"You know what! Zhehan is allergic to seafood. Why did you ask Li Xiaolu to make it for him? "
Zhang Ziyi giggled holding Hu Yutian's arm, "C'mon Brother Yutian, why do you think I said that?"
"Oh! Please Ziyi.... I don't want to play your detective games. Tell me why did you do it or I am calling sister-in-law now.... " Hu Yutian warned flicking Zhang Ziyi's forehead.
"Aww... " Zhang Ziyi rubbed her forehead and pouted, "You are no fun, Brother Yutian. Brother Zhehan doesn't like seafood but someone else does.... "
Suddenly everthing clicked in Hu Yutian's mind and he looked at Zhang Ziyi in horror,"Don't tell me you want to sabotage your brother's lunch date! "
"Correct!" Zhang Ziyi laughed evily, "Brother Yutian, only you understand me very well... "
"But why? " he asked. Isn't this a great opportunity for Zhang Zhehan to blossom his love? As his sister, shouldn't she be happy that the love between the couple is brewing.
Zhang Ziyi rolled her eyes looking at Hu Yutian as if he has just asked the most idiotic question, " What do mean by why? It's the perfect opportunity to meet sister-in-law and on top of that we get to eat her food too. Isn't that great?"
Shaking his head, he denied, "There nothing great about it." And then he suddenly paused, "Wait, you said 'we'. What do you mean by 'we'?"
"Hehe... Brother Yutian. Seafood is your favourite dish too. So, you are coming with me"
"No! Not happening! I am not going anywhere with you. That's a suicide mission!!" Hu Yutian exclaimed in fear.
"And as my partner in crime, you are coming with me on this suicide mission." Zhang Ziyi humphed crossing her arms. This is her chance to finally meet her sister-in-law and eat her food. That's double happiness!! She would be a fool to let go of this chance.
"I am too handsome to die. Zhehan will kill me." Hu Yutian made a pitiful face, "I am not coming. " he said sitting on his chair and ignoring Ziyi. Sabotaging Zhehan's romantic lunch date means only one thing, instant death!!
"Brother wouldn't do anything to you... "Ziyi said.
"What do you know? Ziyi, I am your brother too, why do yo want me to die this early? I am not even married yet. Would you like it when the cause of my death would be 'Killed for sabotaging his bestfriend's romantic lunch date '? What would you say to my future wife?"
Zhang Ziyi : "...."
"You are overreacting Brother Yutian. You don't have to worry. Brother won't do anything to you.... " Zhang Ziyi assured him. Seeing that Hu Yutian was still disagreeing she pouted her lips. "Brother Yutian please come with me" Ziyi asked showing her puppy dog eyes.
Shaking his head Hu Yutian commented, "Not working! I am not Zhang Zhehen to fall for that."
"Brother Yutian just think about the delicious food. A whole table made of amazing seafood which is personally cooked specially by sister-in-law. There are going to be a lot of shrimps which are your favourite. Brother Yutian Just think about it...." Zhang Ziyi coaxed, " Brother Zhehan is allergic to seafood so he wouldn't be eating it. The dishes made with so much of love, by sister-in-law would be completely wasted. She would be so sad and disappointed!!" Zhang Ziyi sighed.
"How can your heart be so cruel, Brother Yutian? " Zhang Ziyi said. Seeing that her trick was working she smiled secretly. "How can you let so much of food go to waste? How can you let sister-in-law be sad? Just think about it, Brother Yutian.... Just think about our sad sister-in-law."
"But - "
"There's no but, Brother Yutian. We have to be there for our sister-in-law. We can't let her food go to waste. We can't let her be sad"
Holding his head Hu Yutian frowned, "Fine. But besides our sad sister-in-law, there is your monster brother who is also my best friend. What about him? Have you thought about what will he do when we sabotage his lunch date? "
"What can brother do?" Zhang Ziyi snorted and then smiled, "We have our sister-in-law to protect us. And to think of it, we are not doing anything wrong. See Brother Zhehan already has sister-in-law with him forever. He can eat her food, whenever he wishes. He can go on romantic dates anytime."
Making a sad face Zhang Ziyi sighed, "But what about us, Brother Yutian? We can't be with sister-in-law always...."
"Now that we have been given this golden opportunity, shouldn't we make a good use of it Brother Yutian? " she asked grabbing Hu Yutian's arm.
"Okay.... " Hu Yutian finally gave up. He knew talking with Ziyi would be totally useless. As her partner in crime, he had to be there with her. And also, deep down inside his heart he wanted to taste his sister-in-law's food.
"Yeah!! " Zhang Ziyi smiled jumping on her feet excitedly. Sister-in-law we are finally going to meet!!
*******
After cooking every dish mentioned by that weird mysterious girl, Li Xiaolu got into her car and drove to the Zhang Corps.
On reaching her destination, she directly entered the private elevator. Many people were looking at her curiously but no one recognized her because she was wearing a mask which was covering half of her face. The elevator reached on the top most floor and she got out.
While walking towards Zhehan's office, she saw Assistant Xue walking in a rushed manner with a bunch of files in his hands.
"Assistant Xue? "Li Xiaolu called.
Assistant Xue paused and looked up from the files. "Ma'am? " Xue Yihong looked suprised and then he suddenly smiled as if he had just seen his saviour, "You're here.... "
"Yeah... " Li Xiaolu said weirdly and then asked pointing towards the office, "Is Zhehan inside?
Shaking his head he replied, " No ma'am. Boss is in the conference room."
"Oh! " Li Xiaolu frowned looking at her watch, "Isn't it the time to have lunch? "
"Yes! Yes! It's the time to have lunch" Xue Yihong smiled bitterly, "I'll just inform boss, meanwhile you can wait in his office. "
"Okay... " Li Xiaolu smiled as she watched Assistant Xue running away. What the matter with him?
