Solution

The correct option is C Being
Option B is the correct answer as ‘being,’ as an auxiliary verb is explaining the main verb ‘enjoyed’. Helping verbs or auxiliary verbs are used in conjunction with main verbs to express shades of time and mood. ‘Being’ is conveying the mood in this sentence and hence, is the correct option. Options A, C and D cannot be used as they would render the sentence grammatically incorrect.
