We Are Destined - Let Me Pamper You

Suddenly a notification came, results were out. They both opened their respective laptops and checked each other's results. Alice checked Feng Jianyu's result and he checked Alice's result.

"Voila!", He exclaimed suddenly. "You not only cleared the exam but you got the highest score of 99.9%". Saying this he turned his head towards Alice.

Alice was quietly staring at her laptop with a serious expression.

He understood that he failed to clear the exam. But there was not a single ounce of sadness on his face, he was celebrating for Alice. "It's Ok if I can't clear it… We should celebrate your victory… Come-on cheer up", He said with a big smile.

"Who said you didn't clear? You have cleared this round too… I am so happy". She pulled him to see her laptop, "See! You scored 80% marks… we both are going to the next round…. yiipppiieeeeeeee".

He smiled and patted her head, "Yes we are".

______________

Second round was a Hacking round. They were given a software to hack in minimum time. Top 5% of participants will go for the final round.

Alice took only 3 minutes to hack the software, while Feng Jianyu took 15 minutes to hack it.

When the results came, Alice was the topper once again. Nobody was able to beat her time, however, Feng Jianyu lost this round by 30 seconds. The last participant to clear this round was able to hack the software within 14 minutes and 30 seconds.

They both came back to the resort together. But Alice was heartbroken; she did not say even a single word after hearing the result. Feng Jianyu looked at her and sighed, "It's ok! I am not sad".

She didn't say anything and kept quiet.

It was raining heavily since morning, he took her to the garden and makes her sit under the canopy, "Listen to me! It doesn't matter anymore whether I cleared the exam or not. Even if I have cleared it, I would not be able to sit for the third round".

She looked at him surprisingly, "What do you mean?"

He looked at her innocent face, but find himself unable to continue his acting. He opened his mouth to say something but could not come up with words, 'F.u.c.k these tests! I can't hurt her'.

"Tell me! What are you hiding from me?", She looked at him worriedly."If you are in any problem, then share it", putting her right hand on his shoulder she said.

Feng Jianyu didn't say anything and turned his face away from her. "It's nothing important. Go back to your room", He sternly said and got up to leave.

She immediately got up from her seat and held his hand, "You are behaving like this because you are worried about your company?"

Hearing this Feng Jianyu clenched his fists and stiffly turned back to her, "What do you know?"

"I know that your company went bankrupt", She said lowering her head down.

Feng Jianyu gulped, a sudden wave of dizziness flashed his mind. For the first time in his life, he was feared about something. He took a deep breath to calm his racing heart, "How did you know?"

Without raising her head to look at him, she asked, "Do you remember when you told me about your dream and proposed me an offer to launch my product through your company?"

"Hmmm"

She bites her lips and hesitatingly said, "That day you abruptly end our learning session and went back to your cottage. I was feeling uncomfortable and restless, after some time I came to your cottage to talk to you something important. There I heard you saying 'my company has gone bankrupt and we are left with nothing'".

Feng Jianyu was sweating profusely, he asked with trembling lips, "What else you heard?"

Still looking down at her feet, she shook her head continuously, "Nothing else… It's bad to eavesdrop on someone's conversation, I just heard you say that and then I ran from there." She looked at him and pinching his throat she said, "I swear on God! I didn't hear anything else".

Feng Jianyu closed his eyes and sighed in relief, 'Thank you, God! Thank you very much'.

He looked at her and coldly said, "Ignore it and concentrate on the next round of exam if you want to fulfill your dreams".

"My dreams can't be fulfilled by sitting in this exam, they can only be fulfilled by you". She raised her head up and said firmly.

He frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Didn't you said that you are not a bad businessman either and you can help me too."

Then she tried to recall what else he said, "Yes! I can always rely on you and you would never cheat on me… I will always find you supporting me unconditionally…. all that… Remember?"

Feng Jianyu lightly nodded his head, he already got a hunch about what she was going to say.

She pouted and continued, "Now since Feng Dingxiong is retired, Feng Corporation is of no use for me. Instead of trusting that spoilt brat I think trusting you is a better option. And who said you are not a genius like Feng Dingxiong? Bring him to me, I will beat the shit out of him." She raised her hand mockingly.

She tried to cheer him up, "I have seen you, you learn things so quickly. In fact, in today's round, you only lose by 30 seconds. I have been teaching you...…."

Before she could say anything further, Feng Jianyu moved forward and took her in his arms for a warm hug. He hugged her tightly in his arms as if she is a precious treasure which might get lost if release her. While hugging her, he looked at the sky and mouthed, 'Thank you, God'.
