Chapter 9 : carefree Ru lan

After Jason left, Ru Lan suddenly remembered that Li mei was still waiting for her in the lounge, oh shit! Im so dead, she said as she started running to the lounge to see her friend, mei frowned when she saw her and said i really do hope our honourable Dr Ru has a good explanation for spending over half an hour in the restroom. Ru Lan scratched her head and thought speak the truth and it shall set you free... and so she began, well, i did go to the restroom but on my way out i bumped into a gentleman and dislocated my shoulder but he insisted on suing me because i didnt apologize and he was injured as well, what! Exclaimed Li mei, what a shameless man, sue you, in his dreams. Dont worry, ill get my cousin to take care of this mess, people might not know him because he's new to city E, but he's still the mighty CEO of FYN GROUP, there's only an ample of things he cant do. As she was saying this, she quickly whipped out her phone and was about to call Li Jaesun, Ru Lan smirked and thought, if only she New its her mighty cousin hehe hehe, but of course she wouldn't tell her yet not until she completely snags this prey she quickly grabbed her phone and ended the call. Lannie its ok, my cousin can help, give me back the phone.

Mei mei, did you forget who your friend is, i took care of it already, you should have seen my acting prowess, i was so freaking amazing, i was like a cute bunny when i pleaded i took care of that man, he didn't even know when he let go of the whole issue and even offered to pay the medical expenses, but i rejected gracefully, i mean , i wouldn't want to sully my image as the great empress right you know I'm as kind as I'm smart? Of course she didn't forget to praise herself as usual as Ru Lan babbled on.

Li mei (....) gosh! She palmed her face as she thought "what a super narcissist." I don't even want to know what happened anymore she said.

When she realised that she was overdoing it and Li mei hadn't said a word, ahem ahem she coughed and quickly grabbed her arm and hugged her from the side, well this empress has kept you waiting for to long, lets go grace their fashion store with our esteemed presence. She didnt wait for Li mei to respond as she dragged her towards the top floor exclusive to the Vvip members and platinum card owners only. My God, why do i have to look so good in anything she said as she looked at herself in the mirror while admiring the beautiful sunset glow of the gown she just picked. It feels like this gown was made just for me, you must agree that i have an eye for all things classic right... she turned to look at the salesgirl standing behind her. Yes maam she replied you really look gorgeous in this sunset yellow. Im sure youll look even more perfect in the designers autumn collections, they are all limited edition. Is that so, let me see bring them here with matching heels and bags.

Ru Lan you do know that you accompanied me here right, and the fact that im paying? Li mei said after she had watched the Ru Lan who abandoned her the moment they entered the shop. Mei mei, im so sorry, i didnt forget you, i was picking for you as well, you know we are same size right, besides i was supposed to come shopping with Lei today for big sis Shus wedding, but she got stuck up with work because of her overbearing boss. Im just trying to de-stress by doing a little shopping... uh uh! But you do know that, that overbearing boss is the one paying for everything right? Asked Li mei. I know, thats why i decided to come, i just want to spend his money a little to punish him for spoiling my plans, maybe that will improve my mood a little. She said and pouted. Hahahaha Li mei suddenly burst in laughter, youre so good girl, ive know you for a long time yet i still fall for your schemes whew! She breathed out. The sales lady brought the orders, they checked them out and picked some, then they decided to walk round the more while also searching for designer apparels to go with the clothes. Soon they were done with shopping ans she told the manager to send the goods to Ru residence in reeves villas. And they left.

On their way out, she suddenly clapped and said, mei mei, i know the best way for us to de-stress. What? Li Mei asked. Ill treat you to lunch, lets go she dragged Li mei along forcefully. And they drove into the city. She parked the car and said follow me. Soon they were in a busy street with so many people and couples walking arm in arm. Where is this? Li Mei asked. Heaven! Ru Lan answered i recently discovered this place through a colleague at work. Its amazing youll love it. Come on. She dragged Li Mei to a food stall. Ru lan is the typical definition of a foodie and she especially loves street food unlike her other rich friends. She dragged her to a stall popular for their breathtaking noodles

Hello auntie, please give us two plates of noodle soup. Mei mei, listen this place is amazing, they add additional ingredients to their noodle soup that it gives you a lingering aftertaste. The noodles are prepare by the old grandfather in this shop, its not the usual with fish stock and anchovy stock, but he adds shaved beef, scallion, cilantro, deep red chilli, and so on... anyway its amazing just have a taste, you'll thank me later. As she said this she was already folding her sleeves, she separated her chop sticks and began to eat. Hmmmm... what do you think mei mei she said as she brought her bowl to her mouth to drink the remaining broth. It's amazing how you have so much money lannie but still end up liking Street Food, I'll never understand you Mei mei said and gave her a thumbs up and said i want more. No...No she said and shook her hands in front of her, the secret of enjoying street food is to have different ones, dont ever eat too much of one, you know what, just follow the master and Ill teach you. She paid with cash and dragged her friend to another stall selling spicy and peppered goat meat which is one of Ru lan's favorite food, she usually eats it until tear come running down and Cheeks but according to her it is the best way to lift up one's foul mood. They enjoyed the meal and visited many other stalls before going home.

When she got home it was already getting late, she parked her white Porsche panarema in the car garage and strolled inside. Ru Lan really loves collectibles and various sport cars because she is a professional race car driver. When she went inside she saw her family were in the living room smiling and laughing with each other they were just having a discussion, she greeted her parents and joined them. When it was bed time she showered, changed into her pyjamas and went to Ru lei to talk about their day as per their normal tradition when they are both home. After their discussion she went back to her room and off to bed.
