Chapter 46 - Han Zihao Got A Girl
In a mansion which was situated in the north of Xia city, was surrounded by greenery and was away from the bustling of the city. The north area of the city was more secluded and quieter than the center of the city which was always busy and awake.
The mansion was designed using ancient Chinese architecture which reminds one about the palaces in the past. With the breathtaking outer ancient architecture, the insides of the mansion were decorated with the modern furniture. It was a place that was a perfect blend of modern and ancient.
The living room was decorated with a sofa, a glass table, and a glass beautiful chandelier above on the ceiling. The place was decorated with various painting pieces and unique art sculptures.
An old lady whose face was covered in wrinkles and the skin on the hand was turning soft due to her age but the elegance she wore has not reduced a bit in all these years, was sitting on the sofa and was drinking her fragrant chrysanthemum tea when her phone rang. She put down her teacup and looked at her phone.
She pursed her lips and picked up the call before she could say anything, she heard an enthusiastic loud voice from the other side.
" Boss, I have news about Han Zihao. You won't believe what I just saw." The man laughed evilly as he couldn't control his excitement to give this top-notch secret to his 'Boss'.
The woman frowned and her expressions hardened hearing Han Zihao's name.
" What is it?" She said in a low voice waiting for the man to spill out the beans.
" I saw him with a girl. That too at a Jade Island hotel, seems like he came for a date. Looks like your dear grandson has finally got a girl for himself." Han Liang laughed after he said this.
He still couldn't get over the fact that Han Zihao was seeing someone. He has never been in a relationship in 29 years of his life. Nor has he played with women in clubs or enjoyed his bachelor's life with friends.
He was a diligent student since young and has never made any mistake that people of his age do. Not only that, even after going abroad for his studies, he never played around. Han Liang was shocked to see his saint-like cousin, with a girl.
Grandmother Han was worried about him because she was afraid that he would still be traumatized by what his mother did and left him behind when he was only 7 years old.
After his parent's divorce, Han Zihao's father remarried. Although his second wife was a nice lady who treated Han Zihao like her own son and he also treated her with respect and their relationship has improved quite a lot, however, there was something amiss.
It was because of the scars left by his mother who left him behind when he was young. Everyone tried to fulfill the emptiness in his life with their love and attention but there was a thorn that was stuck in his heart, making him appear as indifferent and cut him off from others.
He started to stay alone and never had friends due to his cold and aloof personality during his school or college times. That's why Grandmother Han was most worried about him.
Now since he is 29 years old, they are introducing him to young, beautiful girls of elite families, hoping that he might fancy someone and get married. Maybe finding a loved one can remove that thorn in his heart. However, he angers those ladies to the death that no one tries to pursue him again.
Her eyes lit up when she heard Han Liang's words that Han Zihao has got a girlfriend.
" What? Really? Han Liang, you're not kidding, are you? Because if it turns out to be false news, I will stop all of your luxuries. Be careful of what you say."
Han Liang swallowed hard hearing his grandmother's warning. He pursed his lips and said, " I am sure. That girl, even though she looked average and was not that pretty as the girls that you have introduced him before, but he was smiling when he was with her."
" Not only that, but he also pulled that girl's cheeks. Can you imagine Han Zihao pulling any girl's cheeks? Ah, I felt goosebumps seeing him acting like that. That man who always wears stone like expressions was smiling. Han Zihao was smiling, Grandma." He exaggerated as he explained what he saw earlier.
Grandmother Han smiled as she couldn't help but imagine Han Zihao's smiling face. It's been years since she has seen him smiling. She sighed softly and was pleased that finally, Han Zihao has found someone who can make him smile.
" Grandma, now I have given you the happy news, can't you reward me for my efforts? Didn't I tell you about that new sports car a few days ago? I promise I won't buy…" He tried to get the reward after giving this bomb news to Grandmother Han when she interrupted him.
" You will get what you want but only after you complete my mission."
" What?" Han Liang wondered what she was planning.
However, what she said, made him widen his eyes in shock. Does his grandmother want him to go into the lion's den?
Was his life has no value?
….
In the evening, Xu Nuan was working diligently on her computer and was preparing a proposal to make Han Zihao agree to her request.
Since he has asked her to come to his place in the evening, she was planning to complete the work before he comes back.
Her ears perked up when she heard the sound of the elevator stopping at their floor. She understood that he might have arrived.
She hurriedly put her laptop aside and put on her slippers and walked towards the door.
" You're back?" She said in a loud cheerful voice as soon as she opened the door.
Han Zihao who was preparing to unlock his door was surprised when she opened the door. He looked at her and was relaxed that today she was wearing normal clothes.
Today she was wearing a black t-shirt and white shorts with black polka dots. Even though her smooth legs were in his sight, it was still better than her outfit last time.
He didn't give her much of a reaction and was about to unlock his door when she spoke again.
" Oh! You brought so many things. Are you going to cook again? Are you making those noodles again?" Her eyes lit up when she thought about those noodles.
It's been a month since she last tasted them. She licked her lips unconsciously when she remembered it's taste.
The excitement and thrill-filled her eyes as she waited for his response.
Han Zihao was startled seeing her licking her lips which made her lips moist. Her pink colored tongue wiped her lips seductively which caused him to froze in his movements.
He coughed lightly and looked away. He didn't say anything and just nodded. Her eyes lit up hearing his words as she clasped her hands and said, " Good. So I will come to your place for a meeting in a while. Till then, you can prepare the noodles. We will have dinner together." After saying her words, she closed the door leaving him shocked.
He didn't invite her for dinner, did he?
He laughed seeing her antics. She was self inviting herself for a dinner at his place. He has said to have a meeting but not about dinner. She seems to not care about her image when it comes to food.
'How can she love food so much?' He shook his head helplessly and unlocked the door using his fingerprint.
