1 My name is enough

"We are sorry. We could not save Miss Jiao," the doctor informed the parents of Feng Jiao, who started crying.  

 

"Junwei!" His mother, Katie Yu, called out his name as she embraced him. She kissed him on the top of his head as she wrapped her arms around him tightly.  

 

Yu Junwei was blankly staring at the door of the ICU. Feng Jiao had promised him that she would be fine after the surgery. But, she could not handle the pain that she had been going through for years.  

 

"She is in peace now," Yu Junwei heard his mother, when he pushed her off. His mother and Feng Jiao's parents watched him run away. 

 

Katie Yu did not go behind Yu Junwei because she knew that he needed time. She wiped the tears from her eyes and lowered her head. 

 

Yu Junwei ran out of the hospital. He kept running aimlessly until his foot hit against a huge pebble and he fell. His right hand and knee got bruised. The people walked past him while giving him weird looks. 

 

"Why did you leave so early? Just why?" He shouted at the top of his lungs. He started crying as he punched his hand against the floor. The people looked at him anxiously. His head got heavier while his knuckles bled. Soon, the darkness surrounded him, and he lost his consciousness.

Present Time: Shanghai, China [6:00 am] 

 

"Jun, it's time to wake up! Jun, It's time to wake up! Jun, it's time to wake up!"  

 

A young man in his late 20s squeezed his eyes tightly as he heard this voice. When the voice did not stop, he forced himself to wake up and glared at the device on the table—his virtual assistant, Jia.  

 

"I am awake!" He said. He put his palms over his face and recalled the dream he just had. It had been ten years but that memory never once left his mind. 

 

He put his palms down and shook his head. He dragged himself out of bed and went straight to the washroom.  

 

Meet Yu Junwei, the CEO of Sunshine Technologies, a top-leading electrical products company in China. He took over the company at the age of 21. Though, he inherited his grandfather's company through his fortune, he took the company to greater heights in the two years of his reign, earning him the title of the Youngest Billionaire! 

 

Yu Junwei, after taking a hot shower, got ready in a business suit. While tucking his tie, he recalled Feng Jiao, who taught him how to tuck a tie. 

"Jun, look you need to grab this end and then push it through the knot that you just have made. Pull it down, keeping your finger here," she pointed at her collar button and continued, "and the perfect knot is made. It's so simple."

The image of Feng Jiao vanished as he came to reality. He picked the navy blue colored blazer and wore it. Buttoning the blazer, he wore the shoes and walked out of the dressing room to wash his hands again. 

 

After he got ready, he went to his bedroom and picked up his mobile phone from the bedside table. 

 

"Jia, how's the weather today?" Yu Junwei asked while looking at the messages. 

"Jun, here's the weather report:

The sky is bright till mid-noon, followed by a drizzle so make sure to take your umbrella, Jun.  

The AQI Index is moderate today. 

UV Index is 7. So, put on your sunscreen, Jun."  

Jia narrated the weather to Yu Junwei.

"I'll see you later, Jia," Yu Junwei said, and left for the office in his electric car. He didn't follow any of his virtual assistant's command.

Soon, he reached outside the Administrative office of company, while his secretary, Wang Zexi, was waiting for him at the entrance. As the car halted there and he exited the door, quickly a man in a black suit with black glasses came to him and took the keys from him.  

"Good Morning, Sir," Wang Zexi greeted him.

Yu Junwei nodded and walked in, followed by his secretary. The guards at the entry point greeted him. Yu Junwei turned towards the VIP elevator. Stepping into it, he pressed the button for the 35th floor and then the doors closed.   

 

"Sir, your grandfather is returning from the USA. He may be here by the afternoon," Wang Zexi informed Yu Junwei, who hummed. The elevator pinged as they were now on the 35th floor. Stepping out, they went to the CEO's office. 

Junwei settled on the couch and crossed his leg one over the other.

"Sir, your breakfast has arrived," Wang Zexi informed Junwei.  The server pushed the food trolley ahead and started to set the breakfast table for Junwei.

"Is everything ready for the new product launch event?" Yu Junwei inquired.

 

"Yes, Sir," Secretary Wang replied. 

 

Yu Junwei picked up the napkin and placed it on his lap. Grabbing the fork, he cut the slices of the steak and put one slice in his mouth.  

 

"Sir, last week an offer came from WC Entertainment. They want you to consider their top actress for the unveiling of the new vehicle that we will launch soon," Wang Zexi reminded Yu Junwei, who continued to eat.  

 

"They again sent a reminder message to us, waiting for your reply. WC Entertainment is a popular agency. If we go with this offer, then, it will benefit us too. Since the actress is a well-known face not only in China but also outside the nation, it is going to benefit us tremendously," Wang Zexi further stated, keeping a smile on his lips.   

 

Yu Junwei kept eating until he finished his food. Once he was done, he placed the knife and fork on the plate, then picked up the napkin. He dabbed his mouth with the napkin, placed the napkin on the table and picked up the glass of fresh orange juice. 

 

"Don't you think that this entertainment agency is trying to take advantage of us?" Yu Junwei looked at the juice glass and then took a sip. "I do not need any actor, actress or model to unveil the new car. My name is enough to give the highest possible profit to the company," Yu Junwei pronounced.  

 

Wang Zexi bowed as he acknowledged the decision of his boss. Yu Junwei finished the juice and thanked the server, who came forward to clean the table. He then left with the food trolley while Yu Junwei stood up from the sofa and went to his desk.  

 

He picked up his phone and put it inside his blazer. "Let's go," he turned to Wang Zexi and the two walked out of the cabinet.
