Chapter 14: Maybe Chen Jianyu disagrees first?
"Mom, can we finally talk about it now? What was that all about?" Chen Jianyu asked frustratedly.
"What are you so unhappy about? Didn't you find her nice enough? She is polite, just, and also independent. She is pretty, has a good temper, and also cooks great food. What more do you want in a girl?" asked Mother Chen.
"Yes, she is a perfect girl, but that doesn't mean I want a relationship with her. I am not ready yet."
Mother Chen was exasperated. "When will you be ready then? You are already twenty-six. Your cousin also married when he was twenty-five. It's not that early! And you can at least give a chance. Maybe you will really start to like her. Don't just assume the negative without even trying!"
Then she became serious. "Or perhaps..you still haven't forgotten about her."
Jianyu froze.
She sighed. "Jianyu, I want the best for you, and she..was not suitable for you. Trust me."
He didn't answer.
"Alright, I don't want to hear anything now. My instinct says that she is the best girl." Mother Chen said. "Meet her tomorrow. No wait..day after tomorrow. It will also give her some time to think about it."
Mother Chen sighed. I hope he realizes that she is perfect for him. It's so difficult to find such a pure and honest girl nowadays.
She was worried. She didn't want him to make the same mistake twice.

The next day.
Serena came dashing towards Nana and started vigorously shaking her.
"What happened? The twins told me everything. How did you suddenly get a proposal? What are you going to do? Will you agree? Is he handsome? Tell me to tell me!"
"If you will stop with your questions, then perhaps I can answer."
Nana sighed.
"Honestly, I don't know what to do. It was just so sudden. But the lady Aunt Chen was very nice, and she even helped me a lot yesterday with the whole fiasco. She looked so happy that I didn't have the heart to just reject her like that. I told her I would think about it."
"What! So are you seriously going to date? No No! You will forget me. I am not ready yet." she cried.
The same answer as twins!
Nana facepalmed. Seriously what does this girl listen to?
"I said I would think about it," Nana emphasized. "Plus, when I thought about it last night, I realized that maybe there is no need to worry. Chen Jianyu also seemed to disagree with his mother about this sudden dating thing, but umshe kind of ignored him. But I guess he will be the first to reject this suggestion. So it may not even come to my decision."
"What! How dare he not like my Nana? Is he blind? I swear if he rejects you, I will beat the crap out of him!"
The point this girl focusses on is.
Clear yourself first if you want me to date or not!
"So, what is going to happen next?" Serena asked.
"Well. Aunt Chen told me that he would come to meet me to know my answer."
"But if he agrees, then what will you do?"
"ThatI don't know."
Serena didn't want to make her tense anymore, so she stopped.
"Alright, don't sweat over it. We will just see when the time comes. Okay?"
"Okay."

Chen Corporation
Chen Jianyu was in deep thought.
After what it seemed like a really long time, he finally came to a decision.

At Natsukashi
Nana was busy in the kitchen when the twins came rushing.
"Nee-chan!"
"What happened? Why are you both in such a rush?"
"Somebody is asking for you." They hesitated.
Nana felt a little off.
"Who?"
"Why don't you see for yourself?"
Nana frowned.
She came out and was shocked to see the man waiting for her.
Chen Jianyu.
She then recalled yesterday's conversation and became nervous. Did he come to know my answer? Oh no! What should I tell him now?
She smiled nervously at him and said, "Mr. Chen Jianyu. H-How are you?"
"I am good. How are you? Is everything okay since yesterday's argument? Did that Sun Dong come again to bother you?" Jianyu asked with concern.
"Oh, no-no. It's all fine now. Nobody has come to bother us. Thank you for asking."
"No problem." He smiled.
Silence.
Both of them stood awkwardly facing each other.
After a few long seconds, Jianyu spoke, "If you are not busy, can we talk? Alone?"
Nana froze. But she gathered herself quickly.
"S-sure. The twins can manage some time."
She gave them a look, and the twins understood.
"Yes, yes, you go ahead," Yukito said.
"We will take care of everything here." Said Yukira.
Nana then faced him. "Let's go. We can talk on the terrace if you don't mind."
"Sure."
After they left, the twins murmured.
Yukito asked, "What do you think he came here for? Did he agree?"
"Hopefully not," Yukira said.
They both just prayed everything goes well.
