Mark Of The Destiny

"Where are we? Ahh...That's City Spire!" Suyin answered her own question, confused, seeing the twin skyscr.a.p.ers.

"Yup….Didn't you ask for a house here?"

"That was fast,"

"I don't keep things pending," Wang Shi opened the door and proffered his hands.

"What?" she frowned upon him and tightened her hold on Honey. Wang Shi couldn't help but compare himself as a monster trying to separate the baby from mother bear.

"He's heavy. You won't be able to carry him,"

He took Honey from her and waited for her to get out of the car. "Hold on!" She said and opened the passenger seat to get Wang Shi's jacket to cover Honey. "And he's not heavy. I can see he's underweight. Feed him properly."

Wang Shi "…."

Again, momma bear!

"Mmmm…." Honey woke up feeling a loss warmth and showed his disappointment with a pout. With groggy eyes, he looked at his palms, confused. Rubbing them.

Wang Shi brushed his bangs off of his eyes, "What happened?"

"What was I holding?"

Suyin shook her head.

Wang Shi, "My jacket,"

"Mmm…. It was never so warm before."

His words went straight into Suyin's heart and she couldn't help but attack his cheek, receiving a glare in return.

"I have got urgent work. Go home and finish your homework." Since he was awake, Wang Shi put him down. "And talk to Yuyu and Lan once, they must have created havoc at home."

"Okay," Before leaving he turned to Suyin and gestured her to come down at the level of his height. Suyin gets down to her knees and he whispered in her ear. "Don't forget our deal. I'll look down upon you if you back off now."

"Then fulfill your part of the deal first." Shameless Suyin reminded, poking her left cheek.

"Whatever," He pecked, blushing the very next moment like a girl who kissed first time and ran from there, hearing her laugh from behind that worsened his blush.

"Thanks," Wang Shi helped Suyin to get up from the floor.

"For what?"

"For your efforts towards Honey. Despite him being rude at times, you are welcoming and patient."

"Naah… Actually the reality is- I enjoy teasing him. His expression is so funny every time. Even Yuyu and Lan are super adorable. Is it in your genes to give birth to these fluffy buns?"

Wang Shi "…."

"Suyin, you are very quirky at times. It becomes impossible to answer you."

"I take that as a compliment,"

Once they walked into the sales office of City Spire, the sales manager was waiting for them already. It was Master Wang Shi who was bringing the client, the manager naturally stepped up to address personally.

"According to Master Wang's instructions we have shortlisted these five apartments. But if you're looking for a fully furnished house, then choices are cut down to two apartments and floor option is limited to the selected floor."

Suyin, "Yes, please… Only fully furnished." Knowing the apartments are of superior quality, she doesn't want the headache of getting it furnished later. It would be best if it's ready to move in.

"Shall we go for a site visit?"

"Yes,"

Suyin frowned when he took them to the same building where Wang Shi lives. Among the two buildings at City Spire, this damn man had to take her to this building only!?

F*ck!

Her heart had not been settled yet when she received another shock…..

S*it!

Her eyes almost bulged out.

'Wang Shi's penthouse is on the 78th floor, occupying the entire floor and the one above that. And now this man was offering her the apartment on 77th floor. Right below Wang Shi!?'

So they will be neighbors!?

What are the odds they will bump into each other daily?

What are chances her finger would slip at 78 instead of 77?

Can she take back her decision to buy a house at City Spire?

"You okay?" Wang Shi noticed the change in her complexion and she smiled stiffly.

"Yup,"

'Hell no! Don't you know you'll be at risk if I buy this house?'

Suyin, "In which building is the second apartment?"

"Both are in the same building mam,"

She sighed, feeling the urge to cry, "Can we take a look at the second apartment first?"

"Both are on the same floor,"

"…."

The sales manager blabbered non-stop about how good the apartments were, but Suyin's clock was stuck somewhere else. Her heartbeat raced and something churn in her stomach.

This time Wang Shi touched her shoulder in asking, and she could only shake her head and followed the manager for the tour.

Undoubtedly, the apartment was exceptional. She couldn't have asked for anything better. The only drawback was her neighbour…. Hovering above the head!

Not that she's worried for herself..... but for him!

"Let's me show you the second apartment."

Suyin, "No, it's okay. I know it will be as good as this."

What followed was the awkward silence as she looked around the empty apartment, pondering deeply…..

The sales manager didn't mind, she could take as much time as she wants….. he was already dying of excitement for standing beside Wang Shi.

The world-famous doctor, son of the President, first heir of the Wang family….. how he wished he could ask for a selfie. But it would be inappropriate and against the company's policies.

He noticed Suyin looking around seriously. "Sir, madam is really wise. She's paying attention to details."

Madam?

What does he mean?

Does he think she's his wife?

Wang Shi should have cleared his doubt, but he didn't and rather shifted his gaze to Suyin.

On the other side, Suyin heard it too. She gave a side-eyed to the manager, "I'm not his madam,"

Wang Shi frowned. Correcting the sales manager doesn't go down well with him. And why did she use that tone as if it's a shame to become his 'madam'?

Sales manager, "My apologies,"

Wang Shi shoved his hand into a pocket, "Excuse us for a few minutes."

"Sure. I'll be waiting for you in the other apartment."

Suyin looked at the landscape of City Spire in awe. It was one of the best residential projects, people look for ways to buy an apartment, and yet here she was….

"Why did you say you are not my madam?"

She turned upon hearing Wang Shi's voice. Her eyes blinked in confusion. "Because I'm not your madam," after making sure the sales manager was not there, she replied.

"Yes. But it was unnecessary."

"we should clear misunderstandings,"

"Why did you used that tone? 'I. M. NOT. HIS. MADAM'…. Is it a crime? Am I that bad?"

"….."
