CHAPTER 299

"Yeah and you can smile more to relieve your stress," Tang Zixin added.

"Thanks for your concern Tang Zixin. Although I should be the one worried."

"We have passed that, Li Jing."

Just ten the young maid that was sent on an errand walked back into the living room with a tray of bottled water and a glass cup along with a wrapped up package.

On seeing this, Tang Zixin did not say anything but averted his gaze to look at her. There she was smiling as innocently as she could ever be like she did not just do something mischievous.

"Li Jing." He called out her name in an almost warning tone, waiting for her to do what needs to be done. "Explain."

"Relax. Zhu Jie, kindly serve the young master please."

"Yes, young mistress."

Without uttering another word, the young girl leaned down a bit and uncorked the bottled water in his presence before emptying half of its content in the glass cup.

"Young Master, Tang, here you go." She humbly bowed her head and left without saying anything else.

"Thank you Zhu Jie. Tang Zixin, please have your drink."

His eyes dimmed a faction as he stared at the wrapped package on the tray. Just from the questioning look he gave the package, Li Knew he was eager to ask her about the content but considering he did not tell her what she wanted to know, he felt she may do a pay back and just kept silent instead.

"Thank you." He shifted out of his seat and took his glass of water, then drank them all in one go.

"I see you were tasty," Li Jing threw a side comment carelessly while still wearing her charming smile.

"Yeah, I myself never knew that too. Thanks."

"Aren't you going to ask about the package before you?"

"If I ask, would you tell me, honestly?"

"You wouldn't know until you do ask, Tang Zixin."

"Fine then. Let's play this game your way. Please, mind telling me what is in the package before me?"

"Unwrap it and see for yourself."

"Now you are being cunning Li Jing."

"What the fun in just telling you? Try and open up.' The eagerness in her voice told him he would like her gift.

He knew all she wanted to see was the look of surprise on his face when he opened it. Two thoughts came into mind at that moment.

Instead of giving her that satisfaction, he could either pretend not to be surprised irrespective of what was inside and on the other hand he could just choose not to open it and take it with him.

"Umm, I think I would just wait and satisfy my curiosity when i arrive at my destination. I would keep and cherish this package very well. Thank you."

Li Jing was definitely not expecting such a reply from him. He did really take her unaware just now.

She parted her lips to speak but paused instead. "Is that so? Hmm, I regret to inform you that you cannot and may not be allowed to take it into the plane without knowing its content. You may very well just open it now, lest you give it out to those checking at the airport."

Darn! She did have a point. He failed to consider that.

"I think i would take my chances. Anyways, i think it is time to take my leave."

Li Jing's head instantly turned to the side to check the time and saw that it had only being fifteen minutes he spent.

"So quick?"

"Yes, i need to catch up with my plane," Tang Zixin lied.

"Are you sure? I already checked the flights, you can still spare five to ten minutes."

'Never underestimate the innocent looking ones. She really is brilliant. I guess i cannot play her in this one. She wins. It is either I open it or risk her getting angry at me.' Tang Zixin thought again.

"Fine, you caught me. I would open it."

"Now, that is the spirit."

Tang Zixin could only shake his head at her. She really was playful at times. It was one thing he liked about her, the ability to make a situation lively and make you forget your worries.

Slowly he moved closer and began to untie the cloth used to wrap the package. In no time he got it off and spread it apart, revealing a shining blue rubber take away pack inside.

He first took one more look at her as though waiting for her to give him the go ahead and when she nodded at him, his lips tugged to the side, giving her a corner of his smile and then opened the lid.

To his surprise, he really was never expecting what was inside to be inside. His eyes widened and remained unblinking as he stared absentmindedly at the snacks inside the take away pack.

Right before his eyes was his...

He did not know what to say or what to do at that point in time, all he could think of doing was let his mind take him down memory lane.

**FLASHBACK**

"Tang Zixin! Tang Zixin!" a young lady called out his name till she heard his footstep rushing down the stairs to where the dining was.

"Calm down, do not be too fast or you might trip and fall," the young lady said with a concerned and happy face.

"Mother!" a boy in his early teens called out smiling as he jumped the last bit of stairs and landed perfectly well on his feet. "Mother! Hmm what is that scent i perceive?" The young Tang Zixin asked as he sniffed over the table and his eyes widened.

"Here, come and sit. I made your favourite snacks. Hurry and eat before you go late to school. I would package it right away."

As he settled down to eat his breakfast, he watched his mum bring a blue lunch box and began carefully arranging the snacks inside in a neat array.

"I hope you like your mooncake snacks."
