<h4>Chapter 23: Disaster date (1)</h4>


    Zizi arrived at the Moonlight hotel she was supposed to meet Yunru almost three hourste.


    She looked at her watch and sneered.


    Hah! He must be so furious right now for making him wait for so long. Let himsh out at me so I get my chance to throw him away.


    Zizi lifted her sunsses up and haughtily entered the cafe. The manager quickly came to her side and smiled. "Miss. Han. Pleasee with me. I will take you to your seat."


    She smiled. "Thank you," then she apologetically sighed, "I feel bad foring sote but there was just too much traffic. I couldn''t help it. I just hope Soo Yunru won''t get mad at me..."


    The manager blinked his eyes.


    "Sorry Miss Han but I think there is a misunderstanding. Mr. Soo is yet to arrive."


    "What!?"


    Her eyes widened in shock.


    Soo Yunru isn''t here yet?


    But she realized she spoke a bit rashly and out of character for an elegantdy like her, so she quickly calmed herself.


    "I mean oh...Soo Yunru hasn''t arrived yet?"


    "Yes. He also asked me to postpone the reservation to three hourster. He might being at any moment now."


    "I-I see…" she awkwardly smiled. "Sure. I will wait for him."


    Damn it! My npletely failed! Why isn''t he here?


    She red in anger.


    Does that mean he wanted to make me wait for three hours? How dare he!


    Zizi grudgingly sat on her chair.


    "This brother-sister are the same! Pathetic! What does Grandpa like in them so much? Isn''t that Xinyi already enough in our house that he wants me to marry her brother now! Like hell, I will!"


    "Well, the feeling is mutual here, oh spoiled princess Han Zizi."


    She heard a deep and gruff voice from behind her that startled her.


    Zizi turned her head and was stunned to see a handsome man dressed in a white loose shirt and jeans. His hair was halfbed and half messy giving him a youthful yet manly feeling at the same time.


    Even though he was Xinyi''s fraternal twin brother and looked different than her, there was still a little resemnce between them.


    "S-Soo Yunru…?"


    Is he really Soo Yunru? No, wait. Have I even met him before?


    She couldn''t believe that he turned out to be quite handsome and good-looking as opposed to the lowly and ugly image she had held.


    Soo Yunru smiled as he sat opposite her. "I guess this is the first time we are meeting since you never bothered to attend your brother and my sister''s wedding."


    Zizi snapped out.


    What is with his tone? This is supposed to be a date yet he is talking so rudely to me!


    She smiled. "Of course I wanted to attend bro''s wedding but I couldn''t-"


    "No need to keep any appearances any with me. I know how much you hate sis and so you hate the Soo family in general. Coming here to meet me for a date would be thest thing in your mind."


    Zizi froze.


    This...he already knows…


    "Grandpa Han must have forced you otherwise you wouldn''t waste your time in meeting some lowly cop like me. We all know how he is," he chuckled.


    Zizi was dumbfounded.


    Are they really brother and sister?


    Where Xinyi always seemed so quiet and timid and she hardly talked back, Soo Yunru behaved exactly the opposite. He was sarcastic and had a sharp tongue.


    Zizi smirked.


    This makes things easier for me.


    "So you know everything."


    Soo Yunru shrugged. "I am a cop. I should at least figure this much out or what is the use of being one?"


    "Heh. You are right. It''s such a waste of time for me to meet someone like you, holding no status at par with the Han family, yet you had the audacity toe three hourste."


    Soo Yunruzily rested his face on his palm. "Do you want to order something?"


    She gritted her teeth."What? Are you ignoring me?"


    "No. I don''t want you to go crying over to your Grandpa andin how I was insensitive, not even bothering to offer a meal. You might have issues with me, but I have an image to maintain."


    Her face flushed in embarrassment.


    Of course, she was going to observe these things and thenin to get rid of him!


    "I don''t want anything from you! As if you can even afford."


    "I am not that short of money that I cannot afford the most expensive items here. But oh well, whatever. I am hungry so I will order for myself."


    You…


    He really didn''t ask me again while ordering! Nobody has treated me this way before!


    Soo Yunru looked back at her after cing his order. "You were saying something about making you wait? When did I?"


    "What do you mean? You were three hourste!"


    He snorted. "You have got a convenient memory to suit yourself, Princess Han Zizi. Let me jog it a bit to refresh it. Firstly, you were three hourste as well, apparently stuck in some non-existent traffic when there''s supposed to be hardly to none since today is a public holiday."


    She stiffened.


    Now that she recalled, the roads were indeed quite emptier than usual. Only a few restros and banks were working.


    "Well let''s not get into why you purposely arrivedte. I already know the reason and your trap, so chill."


    Zizi clenched her dress in her fist.


    This man…


    "As for me, I already messaged you that I would bete. Cop duties. We got a case," he mockingly smiled, "but I guess you must haven''t recognized my number, or even if you did, you would have deleted it without reading it. I am a poor and lowly cop after all. Why would you bother?"


    Zizi was shocked. "I-I didn''t get any such message. You are lying!"


    He chuckled. "Why would I lie when I can prove myself? Check your phone. If you have deleted it, the message is on my phone anyway in my sent box. Technology has made our lives so simpler, isn''t it?"
