Lu Jianjun furrowed his brows. " You want me to feed you?" he spelt out what was clearly written on her face.

Her eyes staring at him with antic.i.p.ation and s.h.i.+ning with stars like a little baby looked at her father when she wants him to feed her.

"That's right..." she nodded shamelessly only to regret a second later.

f.u.c.k!... What did I say?

Frustrated, Lu Jianjun gritted his teeth. "Is that so?" His eyes were deadly cold towards Li Na and that sentence clearly means he was giving her a second chance to correct herself.

Li Na was also in a state of shock!

Panicked, Li Na shook her head quickly, "I-I mean to say! That's right-Alright. You don't have to trouble yourself, I can manage!" Li Na managed to save her dignity.

Did I?

b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l! What was that?

He's just a pretty face! Then Why do I lose myself like this?

'Infatuation, Mei-Xing! Baby, this is called infatuation.' again Zhang Han glared at her inside her mind.

Her eyes rolled upward as she cupped her chin and tapped her right finger on cheeks, 'Hmm, Infatuation? A state if being carried away by an unreasoned pa.s.sion, usually towards another person for which one has developed strong romantic or platonic feelings. Yes, millions of people even misunderstand it with love.'

' Oh... I got it now. So that's What? Han was trying to tell me when he came to States. Tsk! Now, I understand how confused and devasted he must have felt at that time. My poor baby. I'm glad we all sort it together. Yeah! That's what family and friends for, we talk and share our problems.'

In fact, Her mother called them the three musketeers: Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. A trio named Mei-Xing, Zhang Han, and Mei Lein. Indeed, they are friends for a lifetime.

When Zhang Han came to visit Mei-Xing in the states, he was anxious and worried. He couldn't sit at a single place for more than a minute. He desperately needed to get a glance of Mei-Xing. He needed to hear her voice, and touch her.

At that day, Mei-Xing didn't have free time to talk but he was waiting at Warren Enterprise and that so in her cabin, where he and their very close friends think she usually works. Unknown to them, Mei-Xing occasionally goes to work at her father's head office.

Just whenever she had enough time to spend with her father, Warren Smith. Oh no, Her teddy bear!

Mei-Xing recognizes that was day 1 at her new job and also it was her first Crime case investigation.

The case was about an undertaking affair of Arm trafficking in Europen global market. Which caused the 9 serial bomb blast in 9 different countries at the same time with the same method: Suicide bombing.

It happened 3 weeks before her joining and she was included in the task force technical team to trace the network connection leading to South Asian Weapon Market. It was a tedious task. The bombing was an insatiable crime which killed hundreds of people.

No wonder, that's how the World of Criminals, Underworld, creates its threat over humanity.

Terrorism!

Just Because there G.o.dfather, the ruler of the underworld was thirsty for blood!

He sends his messenger the sleeper cell agents to fulfil his urging.

Her first day, Mei-Xing was inspired and thrilled to work on it. She was an intern Data Scientist before her team leader a.s.signed her the task. She was ordered to dig the Global Terrorism Database.

She was the youngest Data Scientist. And her job was to organize and interpret data to inform higher up decision makers, to map out a drive successful operations and shape the technology and resource investments.

The case investigation was a global mission, and several of the agencies have collaborated Hence, they had access to unique and highly specialized data sets.

Her team has the advanced hardware, software and techniques to develop computational algorithms and statistical methods that find patterns and relations.h.i.+ps in large volumes of data.

They had to make a clear report and communicate their conclusions to a diverse technical conference as well as collaboration with the other Intelligence Community

But receiving Zhang Han's call, she had to make a quick trip to head office in her off time. And she did. Family is equally important to her. Maybe a little more.

And the best part, she never ignores or compromises at any cost. Whether it's work or family. And Zhang Han is a part of her family.

"Han, You better had a good reason to call me. What's killing you, if nothing then I'm gonna kill you." Mei-Xing roared the moment she entered her cabin.

Zhang Han was mesmerised and stared at her like a lovesick lover who needed his treatment. Her hairs tied in a clean ponytail still a few strands fell on her beautiful face. She was looking s.e.xy in a black leather jacket with ripped blue jeans.

Through the gla.s.s wall, their personal a.s.sistants can see the enraged lady boss and the worried boss.

"I'm sorry but it was urgent. Please calm down before you listen to me." Zhang Han replied in a gentle tone, soothing her temper.

Mei-Xing took a deep breath. "Ok, Sweetheart. Be quick I have to go back in an hour."

Timeline.

Zhang Han hesitated before nodding. He patted his chest to ease his wildly beating heart and said. "Mei-Xing, I Love you!"

"..."

So, he was dying to confess? a.s.shole! Not now and how many times?

Mei-Xing sighed heavily. "Han, really? This.was.urgent. I'm gonna f.u.c.king kill you." and she charged towards him with a fist.

"No-no, wait-wait! there's more." She paused with a deadly glare.

"More of this bulls.h.i.+t, seriously?" she glared.

Suddenly, Zhang Han hugged her tightly for a few seconds.

Helplessly, He pulled away and sat on the couch as he rubbed his face both hands. "Mei-Xing, please try to understand me!"

'Exactly, please try to understand?' she wants to repeat those words to him but he looks broken and messed up.

She glanced at her wrist.w.a.tch. She can spend fifteen minutes more. He raised his head as if looking at his only redeemer. "I have to confess my feelings otherwise I'll die."

Being helpless, Mei-Xing crouched down in front of him, she took his hand, eyes locked and said softly, "I know, only I can kill you. So tell me what's bothering you?"

"It-It's Mei Lein!" he blurted out.

" Han, Don't tell me you bullied my sister again. You know that, If you did then I'll break your legs."

"Really? What if she bullied me this time?"

"Then I'll break her legs. I love you as much as I love her." She said firmly.

Seeing her gesture, Zhang Han felt a.s.sured and secured. "I don't know how you'll react b-but I think..." he paused momentarily. "I-I think Mei Lein likes me."

Silence!

Mei-Xing couldn't understand the problem. "So...? The problem should be when she hates you, right?"

"No, you're not getting it." He stood up, frustrated. Frightening Mei-Xing with his sudden actions. "She-She likes me romantically... and I'm scared because I'm attracted to her."

And He let out a relieved sigh. That's was the actual confession. Mei-Xing blinked a few times and somewhat felt weird but she was also happy hearing his true confession.

Even if she doesn't have time to date but if she gets then he'll be her first choice. How can she not love him? He never hides anything from her even if he's wrong or right. They shared every personal feeling.

After some time, Mei-Xing hesitated before saying, "Then Why don't you try dating her?"

"No, never."

"Han, What if..."

"Shut up! Xing. I don't want her. It's just infatuation, not love. I want you! I'm attracted to Mei Lein because she looks like you. We spend more time together, and I don't get to see you, for days, and weeks sometimes even months. You don't know how much potential threat Mei Lein can be for our future. And that scars the h.e.l.l out of me, Ok. Xing, please don't do this to me. Let go back home, together."

"Sorry, Han. I can't, maybe one day, but not now. Please."

I Just started to live my new life.

"Why not? If it's about handling business. You can do it as Uncle Smith does. He balanced it perfectly." and they began to argue.

"I know, Dad is a superman! but I don't want to be in a relations.h.i.+p yet. It comes with responsibilities and..."

"If you think I'll be a demanding boyfriend then..."

Her eyes narrowed. "Wait! What the heck! will you be demanding?"

He smirked. "Love and lots of lovemaking!"

Of course, What else it can be?

Mei-Xing was speechless.

How clever! Get into a relations.h.i.+p, have s.e.x, make her pregnant and get married then live a happily ever after. That's what he planned for their future. She knew his every nerve. C'mon, Grow up man, there are many things she fancies to do other than that.

She gritted her teeth. "Zhang Han, mark my words... nothing before marriage." then she glanced at her watch. "Ten minutes before I leave. And... I'll talk to Mei Lein, I know she'll understand. Then... we'll talk later. Okay?"

"Fine, I'll be waiting for you." before she could say something out of nowhere, Zhang Han pulled her close and kissed her, Didn't she just said 'nothing before marriage, at least not without her permission.'

She pushed him as he whispered on her lips, "Remember, I'll always be waiting for you. Only you." and Bam! a heavy punch landed on his face. "Rule number one: never kiss without your partner's permission." Zhang Han smiled foolishly beaming with happiness, at last, he's taken. "But I love you, baby," he said, despite another hit. She replied," yet... you're attracted to my twin sister."

"You'll understand me when you'll feel that attraction to someone, other than me."

In the middle of nowhere, Mei-Xing heard a man's husky voice calling her but...

She replied. "Well, if that happens then I'll confess."

Zhang Han's eyes darkened thinking about it. "To whom?"

"I won't..."

Again...

That man called her again but...it wasn't her name.

Li Na?
