Zhao Xinyi opened the car's rooftop as they reached the outskirts of the city. The strong wind due to the car's speed blew the girl's hair around. She became all excited as she reached her arms in the air and screamed in delight.

"Brother, this is awesome!"

"Lili, be careful or else people will see you."

"No worries, the only car behind us is Long and Chou."

Zhao Xinyi checks the rearview mirror and saw the familiar car, it is one of the cars owned by their family which the guards normal used. But still, he can't help but be troubled with his sister's reckless behavior.

"But still, sit down, you'll give them a heart attack."

Elizabeth calmed down and did what her brother asked. She then turned to the back and grab one of the bags and took out some snacks as she enjoyed the scenery by the road.

"Brother, this will be your first time visiting the resort right?"

"Yeah, but I heard you went there last time."

"I did, with the cast of Wild Together."

"Did you like it there?"

"I do, but I never knew family Zhao owned a resort."

"I knew about it but didn't really know where it was, since it's your mom who mainly manages family affairs since both dad and grandfather are busy in the military and politics," He explained whilst chewing the snacks she kept feeding him.

"You mean mom handles all family Zhao's business?" It surprises Elizabeth finding out such revelation. To think her mother was busy enough with her own business, she needed to manage family Zhao's as well.

"Auntie better at business and all, she like grandmother. Father and grandfather all cost some of the business to go bankrupt, but since your father is around, of course, that never happened." Zhao Xinyi laughed recalling how his father cost one of the business to go bankrupt within a night and it was thanks to his uncle Knightley that the business managed to survive.

Elizabeth was curious as to why Xinyi was laughing so much. She then realizes something and asked, "So does that mean in the future I'll be your wife who'll handle family Zhao business?"

"Of course not."

"Why not?" She curiously asked.

"I'll be managed by you since most of the share was given to your mom."

"What?" Elizabeth was shocked, she always thought she'll only be an heiress of the Knightley family. Now she understands why people kept calling her the Zhao princess as well. She was really a gold mine for some tyc.o.o.n.

"But isn't your father the eldest son and your eldest grandchild."

"True, but father prefers working in the military and I do too. Just having the military academy under our name is fine."

"But brother…" She felt bad and could not finish what she wishes to express.

"Don't be upset, it's not as if you've taken what's rightfully mine. In the first place, I still have some estate and shares and other affairs because of my mother's name."

It's true, her brother's mother s.h.i.+ba Yuki was the daughter of a top tyc.o.o.n in j.a.pan. Despite his mother's brothers are managing the company, he still holds quite a great value of the shares. But still for her to have everything seems wrong. In the end, she decided to let it go and change the topic. She then recalls something she been dying to ask.

"Brother, by the way, how are things between you and that girl?"

"What are you talking about?"

Zhao Xinyi was confused about what the girl was asking about. The fact he's been with so many girls, he doesn't know which one she was referring too. But most of the girl his been seeing wasn't because of him, but because of his father and grandfather forcing him to an arranged marriage.

"You know the girl that makes you mute just by seeing her."

Zhao Xinyi sudden stopped the car from hearing what she said. He did not expect her to mention that girl every again since it's been years since she has seen her. She was still a child, yet she still recalls her.

"You?"

"Come on brother do you think I didn't notice it?" Elizabeth winked at him whilst giving him a meaningful smile.

Sudden Long came running towards them, "Young Master, Young Miss is something wrong?"

"No worries Long, your Young Master just turned mute." Elizabeth smiled telling Long to return to his car. As he then reported to everyone what just happened.

"Should I drive?"

"I'm fine…" He reacted, he then step on the gas and drove off again. "When did you find out?"

"For quite a long time, I know you've like her brother since you always invited her over when we were young."

"But I'm worried grandfather won't like her since…" Zhao Xinyi didn't finish his words for it was something he wishes his sister not to know.

"Since what? She just a simple girl." she sighed, "Brother, so what? She a great girl, I know grandfather been pus.h.i.+ng you to go on numerous dates with his friend's daughter and granddaughters, ignored the old man. If you like her why not tell her."

"Lili, she doesn't even know I'm a part of the Zhao family." Zhao Xinyi lost his temper as he raised his voice on her annoyed of her pus.h.i.+ng his limit, "She just knows that I'm your brother's friend."

"What? You told her that!" Elizabeth surprisingly yelled.

"Of course, like you, I want someone who'll like me for me. Not because of my name and status."

She looked at her brother who looked upset. Of course, she knows what it feels like. "I know…"

"And I'm sure you know about her family background. Her father is a gambler, while her mother is a mistress of some tyc.o.o.n and you know grandfather hates people like that. Do you think he'll wish to have in-laws like that."

"But she not her father or mother."

"I know she not, since if she was… She would have accepted our friend's proposal to her back then." Zhao Xinyi recalled one of their friends actually proposed to the girl..

"Why not introduce her to the family."

"Are you crazy?!" he replied with such a headache.

"Brother, what are you so scared of?"

"I'm not…" he sighed, exhausted explaining everything to the girl.

"Anyways, where is she now?"

"I don't know, from what I heard last time she was working in a resort in the country."

"Wouldn't it be funny if she is working in one of the resorts we own." Elizabeth chuckled thinking what a great joke of fate it would be.

"That would indeed be funny at the same time crazy." He frowned furiously but too found it funny. If it does happen, fate was really playing a mean trick on him.

"Oh- brother, you never know what fate has installed for you."
