"Good morning, my kitty cat! How was your day today?" asked a sleepy Tang on skype .

"A very good evening to you too, grumpy bear! My day was good and nearly uneventful", replied Jia Li cheekily .

Upon his enquiring look at her comment, she described her meeting with Cheng Fu, the man from the British High Commission .

"Damn it, you do know that he was trying to flirt with you", he rumbled .

She laughed and murmured huskily, "I love it when you get jealous even at the slightest provocation . "

Before he could berate her further, she assured him that it had been a harmless conversation and she couldn't refuse giving her email id without sounding rude to the guy .

"He was very helpful and gave a lot of relevant information during his interaction with us" she tried to explain to him .

"I don't care how good he was . You are just too goddamn beautiful and guys are perpetually hovering around you . It is a good thing that Li Jie is gay else I wouldn't have been able to handle his closeness with you", he thundered .

It had been three years since their first kiss at the wedding in Moganshan . Their respective parents had grounded all four of them post the drunken fiasco at that function . Tang had been whisked away to Shanghai for the remainder of his vacation . He had barely managed to meet Jia Li for a few minutes the next morning before leaving town .

He had eventually been shipped away to America for his undergrad and now was finishing his master's in Business Administration along with a string of short courses related to the consumer goods industry . In the meanwhile, Jia Li had got admission in a Beijing university for a course of foreign languages .

But the distance and time difference did not deter them from finding time and means to interact with each other on a daily basis . Nor did it affect their feelings for each other . In fact the distance had given them the breathing space to focus on their individual goals yet had kept the 'need' burning hot .

"You need to control the caveman attitude here and show some faith in my abilities to handle 'men' . The guy seems nice and can be a good guide from my career perspective", she said .

Conceding, he said softly, "you know I trust you more than myself . Anyways, it's a matter of just a couple of months . Once I finish my post grad, I will come back no matter what Dad says . I have started applying in some FMCG companies in China already" .

She was surprised by the news and asked if he had mentioned this to his parents yet .

"No, I am planning to do it on this coming weekend . Dad is flying down to meet some potential investors and will spend a couple of days with me", he explained .

"I want to come speak with your father as soon as I confront mine . And if I have a job in hand independent of my father's purview, it makes our ground stronger", he finished on a serious note .

Jia Li worried her lower lip like always, every time they spoke about their future . She knew that Uncle Xie would not be very happy about this alliance and was fervently hoping that Tang would be able to convince him .
