Chapter 1251 Shooting
As soon as Raelle came out of the conference room, her phone rang. She looked at it to see that Mu Chenyan had sent her a reminder; Meeting the photographer at 7. Be there on time. Don't forget!
Raelle's steps paused because this really skipped her mind. And it seemed Mu Chenyan knew better than she wouldn't keep this in mind, so she even went out of her way to send a reminder message too.
Raelle looked at the time and seeing that she really couldn't squirm her way out of this meeting, she decided to not waste time dawdling and get done with it as soon as possible.
"I have another meeting, right?" asked Raelle.
"Yes, you have a meeting with the internal audit team," informed Cloe.
"You can manage that on your own I believe?"
Cloe thought about what they were gonna discuss in the meeting and believed it really wasn't that important for Raelle to be there so she agreed, "Yes. I can. You have somewhere to be?"
"I have to meet the photographer," told Raelle.
"Oh..." This 'oh' had a very interesting meaning behind it and Raelle could tell that too but she didn't point it out at all.
"Email me the meeting minutes late," said Raelle before she walked away.
Cloe was left standing there looking at her back and tsked to herself, "You're truly having it rough, Chief. Who knew love would make you go through so many troubles and you'd still be willing? Sigh. It's indeed, as they say, love makes everything possible."
Raelle didn't know what was going through Cloe's mind and she wasn't interested either right now. She got in the car when she received Shui Xian's message that he was also on his way and would meet her at the location. She sent an okay and leaned back on the seat.
After a moment of contemplating, she pulled out her phone again and sent a message to Hyson.
Raelle: "You there?"
Hyson didn't respond at all. Raelle was wondering if he was busy.
Raelle: "Text me when you're free."
This time, the response came instantly.
Hyson: "What's the safe word?"
Raelle: "What?"
Hyson: "Our safe word."
Raelle to get this redundant information out of the depths of her brain after putting in some effort. She had no clue why he was even asking that right now. But habitually, she was still going along with him and responded back.
Raelle: "Ghost!"
Hyson: "YES! YES! That's the one! You really are my best friend."
Raelle tapped her knee for a moment.
Hyson: "Why aren't you saying anything now?"
Hyson: "Are you wondering why I asked that question? Isn't it obvious that I couldn't believe you were the one texting me first? I needed to confirm that it's really you and not someone who picked up your phone or something."
Looking at his explanation, Raelle really had no words for him.
Raelle: "What goes in that brain of yours?"
Hyson: "A lot. Like A LOT!"
Raelle: "I have no doubt about that."
Hyson was smiling to himself when he read her response. He was the person who was most happy about Raelle being willing to text. It was always voice messages that she used to send him which made it hard for him to communicate with her in front of people. But now, she could actually text too. And she even took the initiative to look for him.
Aww! His best friend had grown up so much!
Hyson: "I am so proud of you."
Raelle: "I don't know what went through your brain within this minute for you to say that. But thank you. I'll try to make you more proud."
Hyson laughed at this one.
Hyson: "So, why are you looking for me?"
Raelle: "To pass the time."
Hyson pursed his lips.
Hyson: "Seriously?"
Raelle: "Very serious."
Hyson: "Okay. So, should I tell you a joke?"
Raelle: "Is it gonna be funny?"
Hyson: "That's up to you."
Raelle: "Fine. Since I have nothing better to do right now. I'll go along with you. Shoot!"
Hyson: "Why did the photographer go to jail?"
Raelle raised her brows at his question. It was such a bizarre coincidence that she was on her way to meet a photographer right now.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Hyson rolled his eyes.
Hyson: "You're supposed to ask why."
Raelle: "Ok. Why?"
Hyson: "Because he got caught shooting someone! HAHAHAHAHA!"
Hyson: "Laugh. Raelle Xiang! You better laugh right now!"
Raelle: "Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Hyson: "Argh! I so want to throw something at you for this stupid and dryest laugh. Tsk. At least give me a round of applause. I made a good effort here for your sake."
Hyson: "Are you applauding?"
Raelle: "You can't see anyway."
Hyson: "If you say it, I'd believe it without seeing it."
Raelle: "By the way, I'm on my way to meet the photographer for my pre-wedding photos."
Hyson: "There you go changing the topic just so you don't have to applaud or lie."
Hyson: "Forget it. What can I expect from you?"
Hyson: "But I understand finally why you're willing to contact me first. I guess this trouble isn't easy to digest, eh?"
Raelle: "Mr. Know-it-all."
Hyson: "If you can't make a decision, leave it to Xian Ge. Anyway, he won't push you too hard. He knows what you are. So, all you have to do is just sit down with him. You know, it won't look good if the groom has this meeting alone."
Raelle: "You're becoming very considerate."
Hyson: "I was always considerate."
Raelle didn't refute his words at all. He was indeed a considerate person. Why else would she look for him when she couldn't think about who to talk to? Actually, she didn't feel like talking to anything because she had nothing to say. However, she still reached out to Hyson because she knew even if she had nothing to say, she'd be able to talk to him for hours.
