To Jia Li and other contestants who were sent an Invitation from FJ, the New Year festival sure took its time to pass.

Jia Li was surprised that Fu Hua did not congratulate her after she received the invite, instead he was still asking her questions about her designs.

"Do you remember all the designs you submitted during the competition?" Fu Hua asked.

"Why not... is there a problem?" Jia Li asked with a curious gaze.

"There won't be a problem if you can remember every little detail of your designs." Fu Hua replied and refused to say more about it.

"Darling, don't you think you're being mean to me?" Jia Li asked.

"Why do you say so?" Fu Hua asked with his gaze on her. He really wanted to know what prompted her to say that.

"I got an invite after the last round of competition but you didn't say any word of congratulatory messages to me, that's not fair." Jia Li complained.

"Sweetheart, till you've signed a contract with FJ, only then can I congratulate you. But till then..." Fu Hua replied with a smirk. He was actually pulling Jia Li's legs.

"You're so mean." Jia Li said with a pout. She has gotten an invite already and she was sure she was going to sign the contract once she gets there but Fu Hua wanted to wait until then.

"Come here, I will give you a kiss." Fu Hua said as he pulled her into his arms.

"I don't want your kiss." Jia Li said as she leaned away from him. She was annoyed at him.

"You must want it." Fu Hua said with a chuckle and forced his lips on her. He only released her from the kisses when she was almost out of breath.

Immediately he let go of her, Jia Li wiped her lips with the back of her hands before stomping her feet and going into the inner room with a frown.

Fu Hua chuckled at her childish acts and move his gaze away. Fu Hua had a secret plan, which no one knew about and he would end up taking everyone unaware including Jia Li.

FangSu has been on a low-key for a while now. But she still hasn't apologized to anyone. She was quieter unlike before where everyone couldn't help but notice her.

Grandfather noticed the changes but didn't say anything to her, even Fu Meixu wondered what was wrong with her that caused a change in her attitude.

When FangSu still had a problem with Fu Hua and Jia Li she still acted haughtily but this time around, her attitude was different. She didn't bother to talk too much and didn't say anything if her opinion wasn't needed.

During dinner, after the festive period was over, FangSu was the first to leave the dinner table. When she went back to her room, she picked up her phone to call Bai Jun who seemed to be having a lot of fun.

FangSu didn't have the time and patience to fake being sweet and close to her. After a few words of pleasantries, FangSu directly asked her the important question in her heart.

"Have you found the company you want to join?" FangSu asked.

The smile on Bai Jun's face disappeared as she asked from over the phone, "You seem to be very interested in me getting a job."

Bai Jun was thinking if FangSu was suspecting that she got into FJ. Since she was using another nickname and FJ hasn't done an identity reveal on them yet, she had confidence that Bai Jun wouldn't know about it.

As for Fu Hua and the reason he and the Fu family haven't come after her is that she thinks they were not aware of it.  But no matter what the reason was, she hoped it would continue to remain that way.

"Why wouldn't I be? I am concerned about you because it's almost getting to a year since we came back and you don't have anything doing?"

FangSu was very curious about Bai Jun's plans.

"No need to worry about me, I will pick the company I want to work for, in a few days, I'm still making inquiries, as there are a lot of good fashion and designing companies in the city." Bai Jun replied.

"Okay, don't forget to give me feedbacks soon as you have decided on it..." FangSu said to her.

After the conversation came to an end, Bai Jun said, "Dream on!" and then went back to continue watching a movie with 2 of her cousin brothers.

When the time came for all the contestants that passed the final round of the competitions to go to FJ headquarters in Country C in City X, FJ booked flight tickets for those that were not in the city.

Jia Li was a bit nervous about the D-day. She would be going to FJ in 2 days and she would also get to meet her new colleagues with who she competed.

Her colleagues were coming into the city the next day and they would get some rest before all of them would assemble at FJ by 9 AM of the next day.

Jia Li was nervous about the right clothes she would wear and about transportation, she didn't think of taking her car and there was no need to because FJ would be sending a car to the address she filled in her resumé, to get bring her to FJ's headquarters.

Jia Li has an expensive apartment building under her name, which was a gift from grandfather Fu, so she used the address as the place she was living in.

"Darling, which dress should I wear to FJ?" Jia Li asked as she pulled Fu Hua into the walk-in closet.

"You can wear anything you want to." Fu Hua said as he allowed her to pull him.

"No, you have to help me pick an outfit. Since you like picking outfits for me, choose one for me." Jia Li insisted.

"Alright, I will." Fu Hua agreed. He didn't have any problem picking an outfit for his wife but his mind has been elsewhere.

Fu Hua has been wondering what his wife's reaction would be when she learns of the surprise he prepared for her and her new colleagues, he was really looking forward to her reaction.
