Chapter 9 - Restrain, Master Si

After getting off work, Lao Yin went to find Yan Shu. She was doubtful of this young lady that her parents had mentioned to her. Even if she wasn't the one who worked for Yan Shu, her brother used to tell her everything. That's why she knew Yan Shu had no relatives and thus, suspicious.

The moment Yan Shu saw Lao Yin, she waved at her. She saw the confused look on her face and sighed.

" You are Mo Ran? " Lao Yin was stunned seeing the young lady. She never expected the girl her parents were talking about was an underage girl but she was rather surprised with her beauty. Moreover, seeing how much the dress and accessories she was wearing were worth of, Lao Yin's suspicion vanished. After all, what can an underage girl do to her.

Yan Shu nodded. Then seeing Lao Yin's one raised eyebrow she continued, " Actually, my real name is Su Mo Jiaran. I am a distant relative of Yan Shu from her mother's side."

" I see. So why were you looking for me ?" Lao Yin took a seat beside Yan Shu and ordered for a drink.

" Yan Shu once told me about you. Now that I've seen it I can say she had a great taste. Long story short, I want to invite you to Shengting for signing as an artist of the specified company. " Now that Lao Yin was here, Yan Shu changed her relaxed mode to serious mode. She needed to get out of there ASAP since she was an underage. Moreover, Old Master Su has been texting her constantly from the moment she entered. If she did not ask Su Jiacheng to pick her up, the Old Master would definitely have come here to pick her up personally by now.

Lao Yin almost choked on her drink. She stared with wide eyes at the young girl sitting infront of her. Dumbfounded she sputtered, " Can you repeat? "

Yan Shu did expected her expression. Since Shengting was not like any other average company it was normal for people like Lao Yin to be shocked hearing the offer. She straightened herself and spoke slowly making sure every word was loud enough and clear, " I am offering you a contract with Shengting. You don't have to worry. I am not scamming you and I can also understand your confused state. I will take you to meet Su Jiacheng for further discussion about signing."

It took a while for Lao Yin to process what she was saying. When she finally realized what's going on, she took a hold of Yan Shu's palm and gazed at her like a savior.

" Are you telling the truth? You can really make me sign with ST?"

" Yes. I am stating the truth. I have fixed an appointment with Su Jiacheng for you at 10 am tomorrow. As I have school to attend to I won't be able to accompany you, but you don't have to think too much just take your music scores and songs that you have written tomorrow. " Yan Shu then asked for her contact information then bid goodbye before leaving.

Lao Yin absentmindedly watched as the young girl walked away suavely with hands in hip pockets from the noisy place. It was still unbelievable to her what happened just now. She did not know who she was or how she's connected to Shengting, just the offer itself was a beam of light to her.

' Is this my time to shine now? ' Lao Yin could not help but think of thousand possibilities that will take place after tomorrow.

...

As Yan Shu walked to the entrance, a black sedan suddenly stopped infront of her making her almost bump into it. She recognized the car immediately from that day and curiously looked at the window wanting to have a glance of the mysterious neighbor.

Seeing the curious young lady outside, Si Junyan's lips curled up in a smile. He wondered why he hasn't realized before that the young lady was quite adorable like a rabbit. He watched her instead of pulling the windows wanting to see her next move.

Having no idea what's the person inside was thinking about, Yan Shu remembered that she hasn't thanked him yet for helping her out that day. She pondered for a long time before knocking on the car window.

Getting no response she bent a little as if she can see the person inside and said, " I just wanted to thank you for another day. It just happens that you are here infront of me so...."

The windows pulled down just when she was finished speaking. She looked up at the person whose face was visible now that there was no black glasses between them. Her eyes widened in astonishment.

" Wh...what are you doing here? I... me....an why are you my neighbor?" She wondered why she always looses her cool infront of him. It's more like his face make her acting skills fed to dogs.

" Neighbor? As long as I know I have only been your fiance. " Si Junyan narrowed his eyes at her. He felt that the young girl infront of him was no longer the naive one from before but it seems like she has got mysteries now. The important thing was that she seems to know his lil Yan.

" I...I mean I was thinking to buy a house in Jingsheng Compound. So..so we will be neigh...bors then?" Yan Shu just realized what she said. She pursed her lips and tried to give the most perfect example to him that will make sense. And she does not know why she herself thinks that it was believable.

" Why bother buying? Just shift to my place. I have enough space for you." Si Junyan liked teasing Yan Shu so much. He wondered why he hadn't noticed it when he returned back then otherwise he wouldn't have missed out the fun he could've had the last two years.

Yan Shu was rather speechless. The guy seems to be flirting with her everytime they met no matter whatever the place is.

" Money is the last thing I lack, Master Si. " Yan Shu's face flushed with anger and she stormed to walk past the car.

" I am afraid you will have to take back your words since you will have to use my car to get back home even if you don't lack money." He smirked gazing at her side profile deeply.

Yan Shu stopped in her tracks hearing that. She couldn't help but to shiver abit at his cold remark and walked back to the place where she was standing before.

" What do you mean? Where's my brother? I am gonna sue you for kidnapping. " Its almost 9 at night and since the frequents of the club was rich heirs having own cars, cabs stop strolling at this area after sunset. Yan Shu was getting annoyed looking at Si Junyan's smirk. She blamed herself for always getting herself embarrassed infront of him.

" The Young Miss Su does quite have an imaginary mind. First, you wanted to sue me for cheating now you want me to file for kidnapping? I won't be surprised if you sue me for murder next time. " Although Si Junyan just joked it but never in his wildest dreams did he thought that it will happen for real. Well, that's for the later by the way.

" I don't care but since you are here instead of my brother it leaves me no choice but to doubt you." She smiled at him half-heartedly.

" I bet Young Miss still lives in old lifestyle since she doesn't know how to check her own phone. " Si Junyan stared at the reddened young girl who seemed like she might burst at any time. He saw her shivering from time to time and couldn't help but grab his coat and get out of the car.

Embarrassed Yan Shu took out her phone from her baguette and checked for notifications.

[Big brother : Sorry, Ranran. Brother got important matters to tend to. Junyan will drop you. Watch out on your way.]

She kept her head down wondering how to pursue the matter now. Just as she lifted her head to speak she saw the empty driver seat. As she turned her head sideways she felt something warm covering her from behind.. Surprised she turned around and her eyes met the azure blue eyes which can make one lost in them .
