My Youth Began With Him

“But your mommy said to not always let you eat sweet things…” Su Yu hesitated.

“But I love macarons… Plus, Mommy’s not here, is she? If you don’t say anything, she’ll never know,” Little Bean said as she tried to tear down Su Yu’s will to refuse her.

“You can only have one, okay? I’ll take you guys out for something even better at lunch.”

“Deal.” Little Bean immediately nodded.

“Pudding, which flavor macaron do you want?” Su Yu turned around to ask.

Pudding, who was sitting with her back against Su Yu’s leather couch, replied proudly as she played on her phone, “I don’t want any, I’m trying to maintain my figure.”

Su Yu gave Pudding a thumbs up. “Good girl.”

“I plan to maintain my figure in about twenty years…” Little Bean cut in matter-of-factly.

“Um, in twenty years? Won’t it be too late by then?” Su Yu laughed.

“Of course it won’t be. I don’t plan on dating anyone during this time anyways…” Little Bean responded resolutely.

Su Yu was just about to shoot Little Bean a compliment, but she added, “I’m going to eat all there is on this planet during these twenty years…”

Su Yu: “…”

Pudding: “…”

“So, Handsome Su, where’s my macaron?” Little Bean proceeded to ask Su Yu with big puppy eyes.

“An!” Su Yu wanted to give orders but An immediately knew what his boss wanted. He asked, “I’ll go buy them at that shop they always like to eat at. Little Bean likes the pink ones, right?”

“Thanks, Uncle An! I love you!” Little Bean immediately winked at An.

Pudding saw how much of a slave Little Bean was in front of food, and she couldn’t help but sigh at her sister’s little-to-none willpower. “I really didn’t have a choice when God made us twins, did I?”

“Come on, don’t sigh… Only if I’m chubbier will you appear to be the skinnier one… When we meet cute guys in the future, you can take your pick first, and I’ll settle with the less handsome one,” Little Bean offered generously.

“Thanks, but no thanks.” Pudding went back to playing on her phone after rolling her eyes at her twin sister.

Su Yu sat down behind his desk and went back to work while Pudding played with her phone and Little Bean enjoyed her macaron. An, on the other hand, waited quietly by the door.

The four of them didn’t say anything to each other, but the atmosphere was as harmonious as could be.

At about 11:30 AM, Su Yu looked down at his watch and stopped what he was doing. “Are you two hungry? What do you feel like eating?”

“I want soybean paste soup, kimchi, and Korean-style sushi,” Pudding put down her phone and answered in all seriousness.

“I agree!” Little Bean nodded almost immediately; she never argued against food.

“Deal, I’ll take you guys to a nearby Korean restaurant. Let’s go.” Su Yu responded excitedly as ushered Pudding and Little Bean towards the door of his office.

Before they even left, Jian Tong pushed open Su Yu’s office door. She was wearing a long leather jacket and a pair of sunglasses. With a big smile, she greeted the twins, “Pudding, Little Bean, when did you guys come?”

“A long time ago…” Pudding replied distantly.

“I was doing a commercial in the studio and had no idea… Why didn’t you tell me? I could’ve prepared some gifts for you two!”

“We’re going out for lunch, did you need something?” Su Yu looked up and asked without much interest.

“Oh, I wanted to ask you if you wanted to have lunch together, President Su. I wanted to talk to you about work, how about we chat over lunch?” Jian Tong tried to use work as an excuse to ask Su Yu out.

However, Pudding snapped back before Su Yu could respond, “Handsome Su has his own life, he’s busy enough every day, can’t you let him enjoy lunch in peace? Talk to him after lunch, he needs to be able to eat without thinking about work.”

Upon hearing this, Jian Tong froze for a second. She felt a bit awkward and was obviously unhappy.

“So, are you sure you want to have lunch with us? After all, we really don’t want you to come.” Little Bean looked at Jian Tong with her round, innocent-looking eyes, and added insult to injury.
