After I calmed down, brother Jietang gave me a tissue to clean my face and we sat down in silence. He let out a sigh before saying, 'I don't want to say I told you so because you already know that and this is not what you need now. Have you decided on Han Jingsen or are you doing it to follow your grand fathers wishes, because you are the one getting married to him and you have to consider all aspect. Don't make a decision in a hurry and hurt other people in the process, marriage is not a joke and you know in families like ours, divorce is not allowed. If you are going to marry him then you have to set your heart only on him.'
'I know what you mean, he is someone approved by my grandfather so he cant be too bad. I have decided to marry him and I may not be in love with him but I believe love can come with time, not everybody get to experience the kind of live we see in the movies. I once believed I had the chance to experience it but I was wrong, I guess its not meant to be.'
He looked at me for a while before saying, 'You have to pick a date for us to have dinner together, let me vet him for you, you have to trust your big brother, I will not lead you astray.' I smiled at him while he gave ma a pat on the head. I was always composed and calm but when I am with him, I am always the little princess that needs pampering. He ordered various desserts just to cheer me up and they where all my favorites. I felt calm and relaxed and it felt like a huge load has been lifted of my shoulders, my phone lit up with a message. Checking, I saw it was a text from Han jingsen, I had not expected him to reach out to me, he seemed like the aloof type that did not care about anybody and anything.
'It's me Han Jingsen, how are you?' I paused before replying him, 'I'm fine, how are you?' 'Fine. Is your grandfather back from the hospital?' he asked
'Yes, he is.?' 'Okay, pick a date for us to eat together and let me know, dinner should be okay.' I was surprised again, I was not expecting him to make any effort as everything was already arranged by grandfather but I guess I was wrong. 'Let's have dinner on Friday, my house should be okay don't want the paparazzi to be all over us.'
'Okay, that's fine with me. Where are you?' 'Having launch with brother Jietang, he says he would like to meet you also.' 'No problem, I am swamped with work because of the notice of our engagement but next week should be a little less busy, lets fix a date then.' 'Okay with me, talk to you later, bye.' 'Bye.'

I looked up and saw brother Jietang starring at me, 'It was Han Jingsen, he wants to have dinner with grandfather and wants me to fix a date, I also told him what you said and he said he will be free sometime next week.' he gave me a nod and we finished our launch before leaving. I drove to the office to meet grand father as I was still planning to intern there until I graduate and take up a full position.
'Good afternoon grandfather, have you eaten launch yet?' I asked as soon as i walked into the office and gave him a kiss an his cheek. 'Afternoon darling and no not yet but soon.' I gave him a look and immediately picked up my phone to send Mr Lee a message telling him to bring my grandfathers launch. 'You should not do this, you just left the hospital and need to take very good care of your self and your health. You dont need me to remind you of this right?'
'I know, I was wrong, I will eat now.' as he was talking I put his system on sleep mode and assisted him to the sofa, 'Grandfather you should not worry me like this, you have to seriously take care of your self so I can be at peace in school if not i will take a year brake to accompany you.' 'Don't do that, its not that serious, I promise to take better care of myself from now on. You can ask Mr Lee to update you on my activities, you know he will not lie to you.'
I looked at him suspiciously as I could tell he was playing tricks on me, Mr Lee picked that time to walk in with his food. 'Ha, Mr lee can you please tell my dear grand daughter that you will keep her updated on my diet and health and there is no need for her to take a brake from school to look after me, I am not a baby after all one babysitter is enough.' he dropped the food on the table and said to me, 'Don't worry miss, I will ensure he strictly follows the health care plan recommended by the doctors and if he refuses I will immediately let you know.'
'Thank you Mr Lee, I don't know what we will do without you. You have to listen to him grandfather okay?' he gave me a nod in acceptance. 'Also, Han Jingsen says he is coming over for dinner on Friday.' 'Okay I will be ready, check the side of my desk you will see some documents, study it so you can learn about some challenges we have faced as a company and the policies we put in place to face them. You have to carefully study every action taken, why we decided to move like that and come up with other methods we could have used to solve the problems. Give me your explanation by this weekend and I will ascertain your thinking process.'
I gave him a nod in acceptance before going to the table to grab the files before putting them in my bag so I can take them home, 'Also before i forget, get me my phone.' my grandfather said to me, I brought him the phone from his desk and he said, 'I am sending you an allowance, go shopping in preparation for school, you have a lot of things you need to buy.'
I gave him a hug and kiss while saying, 'Thank you grand father' before picking my phone and calling Mie Mie.
