The Young master's fake bride and her lucky system-Chapter 90: Brother Sun visits suddenly.
Cough, Cough
A sound of someone clearing their throat came from the open doorway leading into Alix's office.
Three heads turned at the same time to look at the individual who made the sound.
Alix was surprised to see who it was, Jin Kang smiled because it was a handsome man and Holea put a serious look on her face and righted herself.
"Brother Sun." Alix said in a surprised voice.
Tai Ho Sun, who was clearly not expected to visit smiled awkwardly and waved at Alix with one hand. In his other hand was a bouquet of flowers.
"Hi." He said awkwardly.
He could have picked a worse possible time to come to her office. Of course, it was not as if he expected her to be with her friends and talking about peeing on a pregnancy stick.
"What are you doing here?" She blurted out.
Tai Ho Sun giggled lightly and looked at her curiously.
"Wow, can't a brother visit his sister at work?"
Holea and Jin Kang looked at Alix. Brother!!!!! Their eyes screamed. What had they missed?
"No, of course not. You can visit us at anytime." She told him.
Tai Ho Sun handed her the flowers and he said, "These are for you. My mother told me to hand them to you before giving you her phone number so that she can take you for lunch and shopping sometime.
As you can see, I am her glorified errand boy."
"En." Alix accepted the flowers.
"I will find a vase." Jin Kang said.
"Wait." Alix told her. "Brother Sun, these are my best friends and investors in my little school, Jin Kang and Shi Holea."
She turned to her friends and said slowly, "Guys, this is brother Tai Ho Sun."
"Hello Mr. Tai." Holea greeted him stiffly.
"Hi," Jin Kang greeted casually, waving with her right hand and smiling widely.
"We will excuse ourselves now." Holea said.
She grabbed a curious Jin Kang's arm and dragged her out of Alix's office so that those who were familiar with each other could talk privately.
Knowing that Jin Kang was a gossipy individual, Holea closed the door behind her and dragged Jin Kang all the way to her office.
As if that was not enough, Holea pulled a chair and sat in the doorway of Jin Kang's office, blocking the other's path so that she would not go out.
"Tch, you are going too far Holea. It's not as if I am going to escape just so that I can eavesdrop." Jin Kang mumbled.
"Yes you are." Holea answered.
She knew Jin Kang better than she knew herself. One, Jin Kang had seen a handsome man and her flirting genes had been activated. Two, her mouth was itching to know what the man and Alix would discuss.
Alix's weakness was sweet things, Jin Kang's weakness was gossip. In truth, Holea too wanted to know what was going on but boundaries were important to her even in friendship.
"Brother Sun, won't you sit down?" Alix asked her guest.
Tai Ho Sun shook his head.
"I have business to deal with. TFK is preparing to launch it's winter jewelry line. I only got away temporarily to do as my mother asked me to. Also grandfather asked me to give you this."
He handed a paper from his pocket which was folded. When she unfolded it, she saw sketches of different jewelry designs.
"He asked you to choose something to be made from diamond you sold us."
"No, brother Sun...."

"He said that if you say no, he will create an entire set for you and not just a single piece.
"This one." Alix pointed to the smallest ring.
Tai Ho Sun looked at what she chose and he raised his eyebrows curiously. Was she trying to save them money or was naturally frugal? His grandfather had included the smaller designs because he was sure she would do this.
"Pick something else."
"It's this or nothing brother Sun." she said.
He sighed, and nodded his head. It was just as his grandfather had expected.
"Alright."
He turned around to leave, stopped and suddenly turned his head to look at her. His eyes and hands moved to her neck.
Alix pushed herself backwards to avoid his touch.
"Sorry," he said and he took his hand back. "I was just trying to get a closer look at the locket around your neck."
Alix touched the locket which she had casually thrown on. It was one of the gifts she received from a fan in the game.
"It's pretty." she said.
Tai Ho Sun was looking at the locket intensely and trying to analyze it from where he was. "What is it made from? It's a weird shade of silver. Where did you buy it?"
"It's from my ancestors collection." she told him.
"Can I take a closer look at it?" he asked her. Then he shook his head and laughed. "Never mind, it must be special to you since you are wearing it. I should go now."
He smiled warmly and waved at her casually.
"Don't forget to text my mother or she will come looking for you personally next time right after she pulls a few hairs out of my head. Have mercy on me little sister, I like having a thick head of hair."
Alix laughed and rolled her eyes. He was surely exaggerating.
"Yes, I will text her."
After he left, her friends returned to her office. Holea was looking at her with respectable curiosity while Jin Kang was vibrating like a wet dog.
Alix could anticipate the questions which they were going to ask so she answered them before they were uttered.
"He is grandpa Tai's grandson. Grandpa Tai is a nice old man who treats me like his granddaughter even though I have not known him for long. I do not know anything about brother Sun's personal life other than the fact that he likes beautiful gems and his family owns TFK and that's all."
"TFK, as in TFK jewels are infinite TFK?" Jin Kang shouted.
"Yes." Alix confirmed.
Jewels are infinite was TFK's company slogan.
Jin Kang walked closer to Alix, patted her shoulder and said coquettishly, "Friend, which temple have you been secretly visiting lately? You seem to be followed by good luck everywhere? Tell me how I can get some of it. Should I rub myself all over you like a cat or grab your golden thigh?"
Holea on the other hand stared at her phone and frowned. "I have to go to work, ignore that bubble head and we are not through with the conversation about her car."
"We are not discussing the car, I refuse." Jin Kang shouted at Holea's back.
She wanted Alix to reassure her about the car but instead, her friend pushed her out of her office quickly.
"My hubby is calling, I need privacy." She said and slammed the door shut.
