Tang Li shook her head. It wasn't like he didn't tell her, it's just that he didn't get the chance to. Yesterday, they talked a lot before sleeping. Today, Mark suddenly wanted to meet her since he had to leave for the launch of his upcoming designs so there was no chance for Mo Yuhan to discuss about this matter.
"What would you like to have? Tea or coffee? And what do you prefer for breakfast?" Tang swiftly dodged the topic. She didn't want to waste time on unnecessary topics when her friend would be leaving soon.
"I want cold coffee and hamburger," Mark was not shy at all. The food cooked by this little demon is rather worth it, he has never tasted it though! But still he will click some pictures, when her identity is revealed, he will start selling them. The food cooked by President Tang would make him richer for sure. He chuckled inwardly.
"Follow me."
"Hey, you're so bossy!"
Tang Li glared back at the man.
"And so... cold, as frightening as that husband of yours."
"You're a scaredy cat. Yuhan is adorable."
Adorable? If that person is adorable, then the word 'adorable' would have to go through thorough inspection to get its meaning changed.
"Humph...as if! I was scared to death that..."
The sound of their bickering got lower and lower as they entered the kitchen. Whereas the man who was supposed to be in his study was leaning against the door as he looked at her calm face but glittering hazel eyes, his face brightening up at the same time as he softly muttered "As long as you're happy!"
...
"Hey, why are walking like that?" Tang Yichen couldn't help but ask as he saw her walking with the support of wall.
"My ankle got twisted when you were dragging me yesterday, but the pain wasn't this obvious at that time."
Although the man was expressionless, he immediately felt guilty. It seems like he lost control.
"You... What are you doing?" Mo Jia subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck as he carried her.
He walked towards his bedroom before putting her down on his bed. After getting an ointment for sprains, he softly grabbed her feet to apply it. His heart couldn't help but ache as he saw the bluish mark.
"Sorry," He softly muttered like an obedient child.
Mo Jia's heart softened; his face looked so handsome from the angle she was seeing, or maybe he was this perfect from every angle. She immediately closed her eyes, realizing her wayward thoughts "It's not that painful."
Actually, in truth, though it was hurting a little but it wasn't that severe. The bruises were all superficial, but since just that her skin tone was fair, it looked horrible.
Tang Yichen was even more guilty after hearing her say that "I'll not do that again."
If closing her eyes would have helped, her heart wouldn't have been beating faster after he spoke.
...
"President Tang, I'm Si Xiu, your new secretary," An elegant lady in her twenties respectfully bowed, while introducing herself.
Tang Li beautiful turned around as she slightly nibbled the heel of her Diamante fountain pen, an action caused due being absentminded which she currently was.
She snapped out of her thoughts when she looked at her new secretary standing. There was something familiar about her that she couldn't put a finger on.
The girl looked graceful and at the same time cute. Her big round eyes were covered by large glasses, straight purple hair that reached till her shoulders, allover a baby faced, dimpled, elegant and gorgeous girl.
Hmm... Seems like her employees have worked hard this time to find a capable secretary for her. Even though they took time, the outcome was good. The person's temperament is rather impressive.
"Do you know about the works you'll have to do?"
"Of course, co... President Tang," Si Xiu quickly corrected her slip of tongue yet it didn't go unnoticed by Tang Li who slightly narrowed her eyes.
Her secretary seems to be mysterious. Interesting!
"Alright, you can go," Tang Li commanded as she watched her getting out of her office before leaning back on the chair as she lazily took out her phone before calling a certain Vice President.
The call got connected "Yes President?"
"Zihan, have you investigated my new secretary properly?"
"Of course, sweetie, when have I ever done things half-heartedly? Well, basically, this girl, Si Xiu is an orphan. She has completed her studies with the help of scholarships and multiple part time jobs. She has gone through each and every appropriate verification process before she was hired. Did she cause any trouble to you? Or should I conduct a personal investigation?"
"No need. Just keep an eye on her," was all she said before hanging up.
Umm... It's indeed interesting. When has her gut feeling ever been wrong? It just takes some time to uncover certain things.
Just as she was deep in thought, her personal phone started ringing. She was amused as she looked at the caller ID. She thought this man was busy sorting out his love life. Who would've thought that he still remembers his sister?
"Big brother~'' her voice came out unusually relaxed "Say, did my idea of solving your 'problems' on bed turn out to be helpful, mm?"
