That evening Billy and his grandfather with Xu Shan and her grandfather went to one of Tiaz groups restaurant to have dinner “Tiau San, I believe the two of you are getting along very well now, since your engagement is near” Xu Shan's grandfather said looking at Billy and Xu Shan, Billy smile but did not say anything “of course, Tiau San is really taking care of me, since am his fiancée” Xu Shan abruptly replies and touch Billy's shoulder intimately “am I right Tiau San?” Xu Shan ask looking at Billy with a smile
Billy look surprise at Xu Shan’s pretends and could not answer her “why is she lying?” Billy thinks “she is definitely up to something” Billy thinks again and stare at Xu Shan angrily “I know they will get along since they have been together from childhood” Billy's grandfather adds with a broad smile “old Tiau, when do you think the official engagement should be?” Xu Shan's grandfather turns to Billy’s grandfather and asks
Billy's grandfather try to think about a suitable date “why don't we make it Tiau San's birthday” Xu Shan suddenly suggest “since Tiau San's birthday is after our final exam, I think it will be good to celebrate his birthday and also announce our engagement” Xu Shan said then glance at Billy meaningfully, Billy is stun to hear Xu Shan’s suggestion, he already have a plan for his birthday , he wants to celebrate his birthday with Xiao Xie alone, he intend to tell his grandfather that he did not want any celebration but now Xu Shan is trying to spoil everything for him, Billy’s face turn sore “that is really good” Billy's grandfather said nodding his head in agreement
“ Tiau San will be nineteen after their final exam, if we are to announce their engagement on that day it will be very good and also we can use that opportunity to show everyone who the new CEO for Tiaz groups is, since most people don't know Tiau San, it will really help both companies” Billy's grandfather adds smiling with satisfaction “grandfather” Xu Shan calls Billy’s grandfather dearly “myself and Tiau San will also be graduating from high school then, we can also celebrate our graduation on that day” Xu Shan said to Billy's grandfather excitedly
“ Yes, yes, that is really good” Xu Shan's grandfather said laughing “our Xu Shan is really a genius” Billy’s grandfather praise Xu Shan happily, the two grandfathers continue to laugh “I feel that Xu Shan as my granddaughter -in- law will help my grandson with the company” Billy's grandfather said delighted “you flatter me grandfather” Xu Shan said all smiling “it’s nothing she just takes after me” Xu Shan's grandfather adds and laugh heartily, he really feels proud of his granddaughter
Billy become sad hearing Xu Shan been praise for spoiling his plan, Billy sigh angrily because it seems that he will not be able to celebrate his birthday with Xiao Xie has planned, but he could not show his sadness and anger, he just pretend as if everything is okay with him “since we all agree to the date, let's look forward to it then” Billy's grandfather concludes, Xu Shan keep smiling “indeed, we all have to look forward to the date” Xu Shan thinks and smirk secretly because she have a bigger plan for the day
Billy could not take Xu Shan's scheming anymore because he knows that she deliberately suggest his birthday for the engagement, Billy then looks at Xu Shan “Xu Shan, let's talk” Billy suddenly said and smile but it was more like a command, the three of them look at Billy surprised because they could hear the command in Billy’s voice “you two really needs to talk” Xu Shan's grandfather said and smile forcefully, Billy did not wait for Xu Shan's reply and instantly hold her hand then pull her outside
“What are you doing?” Billy asks Xu Shan the moment they get outside where no one could see them, Billy looks really angry as he stare at Xu Shan furiously “what do you mean?” Xu Shan forge ignorant “you know what am talking about, don't try to act innocent with me” Billy lash at her “are you talking about your birthday as the engagement date?” Xu Shan ask pretentiously “I think the date is good and will be perfect for everything, did I do something wrong?” Xu Shan ask looking innocent, Billy looks really piss off with Xu Shan pretentious attitude “you know I don't love you, why are you doing this?” Billy fumed angrily “are you treating me like this because of Xiao Xie?” Xu Shan ask angrily because she knows why Billy is like that, she breaths angrily “I have been putting up with you two, the engagement is an arrangement between our families and if you don't love me, then I love, that is enough for me” Xu Shan talks back to Billy boldly for the first time and she walks away
Billy is really shock to see Xu Shan that way, he did not believe Xu Shan could talk back at him, to him, Xu Shan always act like a spoilt princess but now she looks so bold, Billy sigh terribly because he realize that Xu Shan will not give up so easily “so frustrating” he let angrily and also went back inside, when Billy got home that night, he could not sleep because he keep thinking of Xu Shan’s behavior that evening “with how Xu Shan is behaving now, it seems she will go to extra miles to get engage with me” Billy thinks and sigh “what about Xiao Xie? Will I leave Xiao Xie?” Billy thinks again and feels so sad thinking of leaving Xiao Xie “never, I will not be able to do that” Billy thinks while tossing and turning on the bed.
