"What's this?" Dylan's forehead wrinkled as he asked LaoGao

"Your girlfriend's purse" LaoGao (Gao Zhiting) said with smirk

"Why don't you hand it to her? She'll be one of your attendants later in your flight!" Dylan obviously irritated, holding Lian's purse in his left hand.

"Lousiness leads you to miss the boat" this time LaoGao intentionally met Dylan's annoyed gaze 

"Dude, do you wanna play with us?" X asked LaoGao  when he suddenly feels tension between the two.

"No, not really, maybe tomorrow, I want to play with Dylan!"still locking his eyes to Dylan.

"Stop beating around the bush! WHAT DO YOU WANT!" Dylan clenched his right fist and his jaw

"I've said it, I want to play with you!" LaoGao plastered smug 

"What's the deal?!" he asked, trying to calm

"If you lost, you will give me one of your Jaguars (Sports Car) and if I do I will let the cat out of that bag" he mischievously smiled again

"You're pathetic!" Dylan irks again

"Ooh! A friend who's just being a friend is now called pathetic? He chuckled "X hand me the ball!" then he command X to pass him the ball, he dribbled it and stance for a 3 point shot which he successfully did.After that the court was filled of echoed sound of the ball bouncing back and forth. 

Dylan  just stared at the purse. 

Earlier he wanted to pick a fight with his co-pilot LaoGao who suddenly came in and interrupted his heated one on one basketball game with X. But now he is puzzled, true to whatever LaoGao meant on how he got the purse doesn't sound suspicious for him because LaoGao and Lian live in the same condominium, their units are on same floor, they work in same Airline company plus they're friends, but now he knew LaoGao means something else. He clenched his jaw again, and throw  a death stare to him  who's now dribbling the ball reading his motions.

"Dont be late tomorrow!" he firmly said

LaoGao just smirk and gave him a thumbs up after passing the ball back to X.

"That punk is up on something" X said before drinking his beer.

Dylan just sigh. Lian's businesses isn't his thing but this one is another story, maybe there were times that he wanted to get rid of her out of his life because she was too demanding but his ego can't afford to accept the fact that a girl is triumphantly playing  dirty tricks behind his back. 

"If he beats you then you'll be a double loser this week" X said with a smug

Dylan glared at him in response. He lost the game to X earlier because he was too distracted. Now he needs to pay a deal. He will work with X's project for Leong Commercial Airlines. In short he will be an endorser. The idea of him as a "model" is driving him nuts and Lian's stupid purse issue is adding his headache. "What the f*ck!"Dylan yelled in his mind.

"Dylan?!"

"Mr. X?!"

Both X and Dylan raised an eyebrow to the two girls standing in front of them.

"Jackie, Hi" Dylan smiled to Jackie when she recognize her

"Yueyue? Hi" X greeted Yueyue and perplexedly look  not at her but to the other girl beside her
