  Moonriver cafe-

  " The response of the public is way better than I had expected. I still can't believe that the worst time is finally over." Song Ai commented while reading all the messages and comments of the fans. 

  Xu Nuan's official statement had caused chaos on the internet and the fans who were worried about The Knights a while ago were dancing in excitement. 

  The news that the Knights are not disbanding but also that they have decided to move to Xu Nuan's new company made them jump in happiness. 

  By now, they also have started to believe in Xu Nuan's skills and started to trust her with the girl's responsibility. 

  On top of that, seeing the evil side of Wang Meili and the dirty side of showbiz, they started to believe in Xu Nuan more than before and her way of managing the girls. 

  Xu Nuan swirled the straw in her drink and looked at Song Ai with a meaningful smile, " Get used to it. Wang Meili's hate chapter is over now, for real. So stop worrying over what's ended."

  " So are we officially part of HJ Entertainment now? When are you going to give us a tour of your new company?" Pan Lan suddenly asked. 

  They have signed the contracts trusting Xu Nuan and her ability but they haven't seen the company yet. She was being all mysterious about the company and they can't help but be curious about what special she has planned for them. 

  " Hah! As if she has company. I am sure it must be just a teeny-weeny office room that she is calling a company." Jia Fei scoffed, trying to provoke Xu Nuan again. 

  Xu Nuan glanced at her and chortled upon hearing her inciting words. However, she was not in the mood to entertain her with spicy arguments and make her day better. 

  She ignored her and turned to Pan Lan, " Tan Tan will pick you up guys tomorrow. You can see it yourself.  Also, Since it will be your first day at the company tomorrow, you guys can just look around and get used to the environment." 

  " She is also coming with us?" Song Ai asked in surprise. 

  " Well, she doesn't want to work at shining bright after everything happened, so I hired her as my assistant manager. From now on, she will be taking you guys to the places instead of me. And I will manage the work schedule of The Knights as usual." Xu Nuan added. 

  " So are you throwing us away now? That's not fair." Pan Lan frowned, earning a tired look from Xu Nuan. 

  " Stop being dramatic. I am not 'throwing' you guys anywhere. It just…. making some changes in working style. That's it." She explained. She can't work as a manager all of her life after all. 

  _

  After spending some time at the cafe with the girls, Xu Nuan didn't realize when the time passed and the sky outside turned dark and chilly from the bright sunny day. 

  " Shouldn't you guys get going already? You've been camping here since morning." Jia Fei commented, reminding them that it's her cafe' and they need to leave after some time. 

  Xu Nuan frowned and realized how late she was. It's already past eight. 

    She has promised Han Zihao to not be late today and that they will have dinner together. 

  " He's gonna throw a fit if I get late again." She mumbled in panic, realizing that she had almost forgotten about the time. 

  For the last few days, she was working till late at night in her office to come up with a plan to deal with Wang Meili, causing her to skip her meals.

  And he was quite upset about it since she was skipping her meals and wasn't taking care of her health. 

  The last time when they visited the hospital, the doctor specifically told her to take care of her health and not miss any of her meals.

    That's why today he had ordered her to not be late and come home on time for dinner. 

  And here, she's late again. 

  _

  " For the first time, you're right about something. It's indeed very late." Xu Nuan said while picking up her bag and phone, preparing to leave. 

  Jia Fei frowned at Xu Nuan agreeing to her words so soon and watched her as she was packing her stuff as if she was getting late for her flight. 

  " Xu Nuan, You seem to be in a hurry. You should leave first." Sun Ya said. 

  " Really? But…how will you guys go home then?" 

  " We'll get a taxi. Don't worry about us." Song Ai added. 

  " What taxi? Do you want to be in the news tomorrow again? Did you forget about the scandal that happened recently? You go, I'll drop them off." Jia Fei interrupted their conversation. 

    The girls are quite popular these days and taking a taxi at night after such a controversial scandal is not safe for them. 

  " What? Really?" Xu Nuan was surprised at Jia Fei volunteering to drop off the girls. What's suddenly got into her? She was insisting to kick them out of the cafe just a while ago, now she wants to drop them off? 

  " Well, I'll leave them to you then. Thanks, girl!" Xu Nuan smiled. 

  Jia Fei scoffed seeing her friendly smile and turned away, pretending to be cool and mumbled, " Get lost."

  Not only Xu Nuan, even Luo Dan was also surprised to see Jia Fei helping Xu Nuan. 

  Seeing the way they both argue every time they see each other, their relationship is not so friendly. What's gotten into Jia Fei exactly? 

  Why is she suddenly helping Xu Nuan? That's very unlikely of her!

  _

  As Xu Nuan was about to leave the cafe, her phone started to ring. She pursed her lips nervously and picked up the call. 

  " Where are you?" However, as soon as she picked up the call, she heard Han Zihao's indifferent voice from the other side. 

  From his stern voice, she could tell that he was not in the good mood. 

  He is angry! He definitely is!

  She coughed awkwardly and tried to come up with an excuse, " Ah, I was at the Moonriver cafe with the girls. We were discussing what happened today."

  " However, don't worry. I won't be late today. I am in the taxi right now. I will be there in……10 minutes. Yes, 10 minutes." She lied. 

  The girls stared at Xu Nuan lying while she was standing next to them. She doesn't get restless easily but seeing her like this, they were pleased. 

  At least there is someone who can make her jittery. 

  Xu Nuan waved at the girls in a hurry and was about to leave the cafe while talking on the phone, when she heard him say, " Don't come out yet. Wait for me there." 

  "Ah?" She stopped in her steps and wondered if she heard him right. 

  Did he find out that she was lying? 

  " What are you saying? Didn't I tell you that I am already in the taxi? I am on the way. I'll be there in 10 minutes."

  " I know that you're still at the cafe. So stay put there." 

  "OH!" She exclaimed at his relatively cold and extremely calm voice. 

  She bit her lips and wondered why was he suddenly coming over to pick her up? Is it because she got late or because of what happened today? 

  He is not coming to lecture her about taking care of her health again, is he? 

  For some reason, she couldn't help but feel intimidated by his cold attitude. It's been a long time since she has seen this side of him. 

  The way he talked to her was the same way he treated her when they met for the first time in the hospital. Uninterested and suave!
