Project: Success

Chapter 19 - Smug Min Ju

Min Ju entered her room and run towards her bed. She cried silently. So silent no one will hear.

She cried for like hours that He Rue and Qin Wuxie waited outside her doors. She thought they wouldn't hear, however, all of them clearly hear what she's feeling inside.

Even the Qin Wuxie and the Qin family.

Because why not? Even if they haven't experience losing a love one, they knew how it felt. Sadness, devastation and loss.

Min Ju hope for miracle. Miracle that her brother and those people in the plane survive.

But who would have thought, that hope would diminish as the days go by.

After crying, Min Ju goes to the bathroom. Standing under the shower with a blank look on her face.

She wore a minty color top and a lighter blue jeans and let her hair down. She opened the door and found Wuxie and Rue sitting on the floor silently, waiting for her.

"Guys, what's wrong?"

The two immediately jump up and look at her.

"Are you okay?" Ask Qin Wuxie worriedly.

"En. I'm strong, you know." She chuckled. "I'm going to Digital City, you two can come with me if you want." Her tone loud and cherry, hiding the fact that she had cried nonstop. It was good that her eyes weren't puffy at all.

"Okay!"

"Juju..." Grandfather Fu called out to her. The Qin Family had already left.

"Yes, grandpa?"

"How are you?"

"I'm okay. Don't worry about me."

Min Ju hugged her grandfather tightly. "Min Ju is not a child anymore. I can handle pain. I'm tough. Roar." She laugh slightly.

"You...you know I'm always here with you, right? If you want to cry, run to your grandfather. I'll cry with you, okay?" Grandfather Fu hold both of her shoulder and said to her with seriousness as he look at her.

"En!" Min Ju smiled like a sweet cat.

"You're dress properly. Where are you going?" He asked.

"To Digital City. I have things to buy there."

Hearing what she said, Grandfather Fu immediately grabbed money from his pocket.

"Here. Use this money to buy all the things you want."

He reach out his hand to give the money but Min Ju cupped his hands from both of her hands.

"Grandfather, you should save this money for you. I still have money that I save abroad. In the future, you don't have to work hard. Leave the working things to me, okay? I just want my grandfather to live life happy and healthy."

Grandfather Fu tear up. His granddaughter is now a big girl. A girl that he had to rely on.

"Juju, if it's hard and you can't take care anymore. Let your grandfather help you. I can't just stand there and watch you suffer..." He felt so useless and helpless.

"Hm. You can grandfather."

...

Driver Yu came up to the three of them as he saw them left the house.

"Driver Yu, at your service." He said. Old man Qin had instructed them to drive wherever they go.

Min Ju looked at Qin Wuxie.

"We're going to Digital City."

###

Looking at the crowded city. Min Ju climbed down from the car. She needed to buy her own computer to start working. She also needed to get her studio started. There are too much work in her hands.

Although she knew how to build a laptop and a desktop she doesn't have time for any of those.

"Rue, can you call this number?"

"Okay. What shoud I tell him?"

"Meet me at Digital City for a bodyguard position. I want to hire him now for grandfather. Now that I angered Old Grandma Shi and the twins, they'll definitely keep their eyes on us."

"Okay. I'll call him immediately."

Entering a Digital Center, Min Ju looked around, searching for the things that will caught her attention.

All the flat screen are filled with those games league. A national gaming league for gamers. Min Ju experience a gaming contest like this, however, it was an International Online Gaming League. Unfortunately, her team lose. She was only 15 years old that time and was working under Aunt Jackson's flowershop.

Up until now, she still loves playing. However, it's been a year since she goes online. She was busy with work. And now she was busy planning her road to success. And she's going to start with music.

The owner and the assistant watch the young woman looking around. It was still early in the morning so she's actually their first customer.

Qin Wuxie isn't with Min Ju, she was with He Rue trying to contact the person that the Lin father and son recommended. His name is Ke Shuang.

A group of boys entered the shop. And Min Ju was very familiar with this boys. It was Ru Jin's friends who Min Ju kicked last night.

"Sir, I want this one please." Her mellow voice attract the attention of the boys.

It was at this moment that they saw the face of the woman they can't forget! The girl who kicked them in front of everybody.

Feeling the heated gaze behind her, Min Ju turn around staring at the familiar faces of the boys she too will not forget!

"Well, well, well. Look what we have here." Her voice was filled with mirth.

"What would a bastard like you coming here? Do you even have the money to spend? I heard your grandfather is borrowing money with some friends." The man in red shirt says with mocking.

Min Ju's eyes constricted. She was shock to know that her grandfather is borrowing money. However, she never showed that shock expression on her face.

"You'll be shock if I ever told you that I can buy this whole damn shop." Min Ju said with a smug smile.

"Empty blathering." The guy in his black shirt said. He had cross piercing on his ears and was actually very charismatic. Last night, this person didn't have that cool ear piercing on his ears. Damn it, she wants to look cool too, just like this man!

"Oh yeah? What would I get if I can?" She challenge. She still have that smug look in her face.

The owner and the assistant were panicking. They haven't ask me, ah?! And I'll never want to sell my shop!

"Dear customers, I'm not planning to sell my shop. Just this electronic devices inside." The owner said calmly albeit nervous inside. This girl is too fierce and has a frightening aura! Why would this bunch of boys have to provoke her?! Earlier, she was just quiet and has a gentle aura around her. Now, it look like the tigress has just awoken.
