CHAPTER 334

"What are you doing here? I mean, how did you find me here?" Jiang Meilin questioned.

"Uhm, I... found you through my sources," the man, Zhao Fu shrugged.

"You... I-"

"Are you not at least happy to see me?" Zhao Fu asked.

His smile had not faltered since he saw her. Happiness was an understatement compared to what he was feeling.

Jiang Meilin turned to Shin who was standing not too far away from her and said, "Shin, please help me take care of the customers and close the store."

"Alright," Shin agreed.

He eyed the man in black clothing. Shin had guessed that Jiang Meilin was leaving the store to talk to the man.

"Follow me," Jiang Meilin signalled Zhao Fu.

Instead of going to her apartment, Jiang Meilin went to a cafe nearby. Zhao Fu orders a cappuccino for her and a black coffee for himself.

They kept staring at each as they waited for their order to arrive. Jiang Meilin's face was stern but Zhao Fu was smiling.

From what she could remember, this man sitting in front of her has not changed. His face was just slightly older. His brown eyes were still sharp and he still carried his brown hair the same way he did back then- combed backwards with a few strands left to dangle on his forehead.

'He still likes wearing black. For goodness sake, why would a normal human being like and wear just one colour?' She thought.

'She is still young. But now compared to the last past twenty-two years I saw her, she has this strong, independent vibe around her. It is good,' Zhao Fu was also thinking.

By the time the order arrived, Zhao Fu took a sip from his coffee while Jiang left hers untouched.

"You don't like the cappuccino?" Zhao Fu asked.

"Did I tell you that?" Jiang Meilin asked with raised brows.

"No. Can you just loosen your face a little? At least pretend that you are happy to see me," he said.

"What do you want?" Jiang Meilin asked. She wanted to get this over with.

"Nothing. I am just very happy to see you. I have been thinking about the day our paths would finally cross again," Zhao Fu said.

"But I did tell you before that we should not see each other anymore. You agree to it, did you not? So what is this?"

"Can I not want to miss you? Why are you putting up a cold face in front of me?"

SILENCE

"Sigh. Alright. Change of topic. How is your daughter?" Zhao Fu asked.

"Fine. Why are you asking?"

"Nothing much. I just figure that since she is my-"

"She is not yours and will not be," Jiang Meilin interrupted him.

"I know that she is not. Do not make me jealous of that husband of yours, okay? Anyway, how is your husband? Are you guys still together?"

"If your 'sources' found me then I do not think I need to answer that question of yours. Do not play the clueless game with me," Jiang Meilin said before she took a sip from her cappuccino.

"You still smart. So, how have you been couping these years?"

"Very well as you can see."

"Look I know we agreed to not meet each other anymore. But that was then. We agreed to that because you were marrying that scumbag and I regret that. I would have persuaded you with anything and everything. But the past has happened and is gone leaving us with the present. So, I looked for you and boldly came here so that we can rekindle our love," Zhao Fu said.

"Who told you that I am still in love with you?" Jiang Meilin asked. "I got rid of that feeling after I got married."

"Well, that is just something you tell yourself to make you forget me. But I do not need a soothsayer to tell me that you still feel something for me. Even if it is a little," Zhao Fu stated.

Jiang Meilin scoffed and said, "Well too bad for you because there is no single truth in all that you have just said. I also do not need a soothsayer."

"Stop denying it, Mei. You just said we should not play the clueless game. Come on. Do you really want to remain single for the rest of your life? Hello, a man who loves you is sitting right here," Zhao Fu pointed at himself.

"Yes, I want to remain single will my life if that is what it takes to protect my own. I have a daughter and a grandson, Zhao Fu," Jiang Meilin stamped her palm on the desk.

"I know that. Which is why you need me too. I am also good at protecting. I also want to protect my own, you, your daughter and your grandson if need be. Just let me."

"No. You run a freaking mafia, God damn it," Jiang Meilin said in a low voice. "Danger resides around you, with you and in you. I can't risk anything to be with you. I thought we cleared this out the last time."

"But I have all the power and what it takes to prevent any harm from coming near us. No one would even think about it. Besides, I used to run the mafia business. But now, I do not," Zhao Fu said.

"How am I supposed to believe that? Even if you stopped, you still have enemies lurking and waiting to feast on your destruction. Once a mafia member, always a mafia member. You did some pretty bad stuff when you were into it. Karma exists," Jiang Meilin argued.

"But only did those bad stuffs because it was right."

"Killing people is not right. You are an offender of the law."

"Screw the law. I only killed bad guys. That was the sole purpose of our gang. But I drew out with some of us who knew what my dad was getting into was bad."
