CHAPTER 25: HE’LL NEVER LET HER LEAVE HIM BEHIND THIS TIME

Ke Bohan and Ru Lei kept staring at the couple with incredulity, they never knew that Ru Lan could be this cheeky or that when she found herself a boyfriend who also happened to be the most powerful man in most part of the world, he would indulge her this much. They both knew Ru Lan to be a Feral tiger that always bared her fangs but right now she was like a kitten that had been totally subdued. They knew she was acting but they didn't know if she was serious with Jason or just messing with him, now the only thought on their minds is what is she playing at?

Ru Lan didn't know what her friend and sister were thinking about her, if she did, she'll probably vomit blood. Right now the only person in her field of view is Jason, and she had totally forgotten about her sister and friend whose date she had crashed on, all she wanted to do now was make up for lost time. She knew she had already missed him for five years, and five years happen to be a really long time.

Jason on the other hand couldn't care less about anyone who was not Ru Lan in the first place. He was not one to dwell on pleasantries and he didn't have any reason to fawn over anyone so he just kept enjoying the attention his girlfriend was currently showering him with.

Ru Lei was so tired of seeing her sister like this so she asked the one question that has been gnawing on her mind. How long have you been dating? She asked. The question was directed at Ru Lan because she obviously couldn't question her boss. Even though Ru Lan had said He would be her future brother in law, she still had this bit of fear for him in her heart.

Ru lei's voice brought Ru Lan out of that imaginary world she was in. She had totally forgotten about her sister. All she had in her sights was Jason. So she answered. Just a few hours. We just started dating, I was hungry so we came here for dinner. It's not an official date like you and Han. She said.

Oh! I see. Ru Lei said. She didn't know what else to say. So how did you meet?

Well! I ran into him at FYN GROUP'S MALL last week and he was watching me when I was taking care of some goons who wanted to jump me earlier today. We went to Blueveiw afterwards and came here after. That's the whole story sis, there is nothing more to it and please don't ask anymore because I wouldn't know what to say. Ru Lan said in one breath. She had just summarised hers and Jason's meeting in one breath like she was talking about what she had for lunch.

Ru Lei did not even hear past the first sentence, when she heard that some goons wanted to jump her, she forgot about all she wanted to ask about Jason. She knew her sister's identity was not ordinary and that she was a skilled fighter, but she was genuinely worried about her well-being and sincerely scared for her.

Goons? Jump you? Where? Are you okay? She asked three questions at the same time.

Ru Lan rolled her eyes at her sister's silly antics. People who didn't know her would think she was one of those white lotuses pretending to care about her sister when in fact she didn't care at all, but Ru Lan knew better. If there was one person, Ru Lei cared about most in the world, it would be her sister Ru Lan. She cared about her even more than she cared about her fiancé Ke Bohan. She had even learnt to fight and shoot because she wanted to be involved in Ru Lan's affairs and be able to protect her should there ever be a need for it. She didn't care that Ru lan could take care of herself.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Ru Lan replied. I'm totally fine Lei. Aren't I here on a date with Jason and chatting with you? She said.

Who sent them? Ru Lei asked. Her aura had completely changed and turned frosty. You would never believe she was the demure girl sitting beside Ke Bohan. Even Ke Bohan flinched. He knew that Ru Lei was not as simple as she looked especially when it came to her sister's safety.

Who else? Its Lin Habin of course, she's just jealous I became the head of our department so she wants me out of the game. Hehehe. Ru Lan laughed and placed a chip in her mouth.

That bitch... Ru Lei said. She is truly deserving of been taught a lesson. I think I should pay her a visit. She really needs to learn the rules. Said Ru Lei. Ru Lei was never one to use curses but when it came to people like Lin Habin, she didn't regard her as a person anyway so it didn't really matter if she used swear words to refer to her. That's what she thought.

No no no... Ru Lan quickly interjected. I have a plan. I'll take care of her. Besides, if you were to visit her now, who will I play with when I resume work, I don't want my working days to become boring. Lin Habin is currently my play thing. If you were to take care of her now, how will i survive?

But! She sent goons after you Ru Lei said. She was feeling quite aggrieved. It has been a long time since she last beat up anybody and she was missing it. Ru Lan had completely infected her sister with her violent tendencies.

Alright, I'll include you in the fun. I promise. Let's just leave her be and play a little more. Ru Lan said.

Fine! Ru Lei said. With a deep frown on her face. She was acting like a baby whose favourite candy has been taken from her.

Jason and Ke Bohan were looking at both sisters awestruck. They both didn't say a word. They just stared on. Jason just marvelled at his girl's playful antics. He wanted to deal with that Lin Habin but now he is just going to indulge the lady and let her do as she sees fit, then when she's done playing, he can start his. He had already formulated a plan in his mind. Since the mayor's daughter had what it takes to mess with his girl. He was going to help her stop being the mayor's daughter. He couldn't care less about any relationship they had with the mayor's family. He was also glad he didn't attend the meeting with the mayor's family today. He has to make his lady happy first. That was his first priority. Jason didn't realise he was already claiming ownership and calling her his.

Ru Lan didn't know that her knight in shiny Armour was already planning a revenge for her, all she wanted to deal with was Lin Habin, she was never one to rely on others to fight her battle, that is if she could even call this one a battle. but Jason was of the opinion that the whole family had to suffer. He knows how much the mayor spoils his daughter and he knows that she definitely wouldn't do anything without her parents approval and boy was he right.

Soon the food came. The table was filled to the brim with delicious spreads. This was Ru Lan's favourite thing to do in life. Savour good food and enjoy it. She looked at the food with so much love and her eyes brimmed with tears. Old Louise really knows how to make Ru lan happy, so he gave it his all when Serene told him that Ru lan had found a boyfriend. So many of the dishes on the table were ones they had never seen before and they couldn't even name them. Ru Lan did not wait for any one and she just dug in. She ate without class. She had totally forgotten that she was there with other people, all she could see was the food.

Ke Bohan and Ru Lei were looking at her in incredulity again, they had always known that as long as food was involved, Ru Lan didn't care where she was and she'd just eat to her satisfaction, everyone else's opinions be damned. But they thought that now that she had found a boyfriend and not just anybody but the most powerful man in N Nation, she would at least show some class. To their surprise, she just ate like she normally does whenever she was with her family, they couldn't help but think if Jason was that important to her or that she really didn't care how he saw her. They remained baffled and Ru Lei was simply ashamed of her sister's behaviour in presence of her boss, all she wanted to do was hide her face.

While they were thinking of Ru Lan as classless, Jason thought that his little lady was full of swag. He was amazed at everything he had seen today, the way she just moves through life is like someone that does not even have a Little bit of worry. He knew that she lives a dangerous life but there was nothing he wanted to change about her.

He was just happy that she was not Pretentious and she didn't see him like a powerful person or a stranger, to her, he was just a man, and she was the only one that has ever treated him as an ordinary person with feelings.

He loves her for all that she appears to be and he intends to stand by her through all the hurdles she'll go through in life. He'll never let her leave him behind this time. That was another vow.
