Chapter 77 - DAILY LIFE OF A LEFTOVER SECRETARY (2)

"Secretary Shi, follow me for the meeting with Mr. Feng from Feng Group," Mr. Yang Zhuhuo said at nine. I frowned. I didn't remember having that in my schedule.

"Mr. Feng as in… Feng Xiaojun? Sir, we don't have any scheduled meeting with him," I said while checking the schedule of today. Sometimes Mr. Yang often mixed up some meetings in his head, so I had to remind him. 

But Mr. Yang didn't seem to be confused and shook his head, "No, this is just a short meeting that we made in a call just now. Let's go."

I nodded and brought my notebook with me. I didn't know what kind of meeting Mr. Yang would have, but it seemed to be serious. Since he rarely did a meeting out of his schedule. 

I remembered seeing Feng Xiaojun in a business magazine. He was handsome, but I felt like his face was edited, 'Maybe he's kind of ugly in real life. But why would he ask for his face to be edited, though? He's a businessman, not a model.' I pondered. 

While on the road to the Feng Group office, I texted Shi Qiang, my little sister. Because I knew that Shi Qiang was actually Mr. Feng Xiaojun's secretary. 

'That reminds me, though… Qiang is so pretty. Why doesn't she just seduce Mr. Feng Xiaojun? I think they'll look good together…'

I unlocked my phone and started texting her:

*Ying Jie: Qiang, my boss and I are heading to your office now.*

It took a moment until Shi Qiang replied:

*Qiang: Boss Feng forgot to tell me about it. He said it's just a short private meeting between him and Mr. Yang. But he said it's not actually a short meeting because what they will discuss is important.*

I glanced at Mr. Yang and sighed. This old boss of mine often underestimated things because of his position. He said that he would never go bankrupt because he had a wasteful son who got rich through shady stuff.

But knowing what Yang Menghuo was doing, it was probably just investment and some… competitors gutting, both financially and physical gutting. 

'So that's why our office never got into financial strain, the biggest investor is probably Meng Bao himself,' I concluded. 

*Ying Jie: My boss always underestimates every problem. I hope your boss isn't in a bad mood right now.*

*Qiang: Oh, he's in a very good mood right now. One of his lovers is here, and his love is like, a total simp for him, like an obedient puppy! It's both a good sight for me but also infuriating since it always tells me how single I am.*

I wanted to laugh at Shi Qiang's text. But it surprised me that Mr. Feng Xiaojun had few lovers. From the magazine interview, it seemed that he was a proper man. It turned out he was a man who played with many beautiful ladies. 

*Ying Jie: You need to spill the tea with me about your boss later. So that's why you don't want him to be your boyfriend.*

*Qiang: It's a whole different thing, Jie. But I will tell you once you're here.* 

*Ying Jie: Ok.*

Shi Qiang's text made me curious. Shi Qiang often told me that her boss was a nice man and very kind to her, but she would never fall in love with him for an unknown reason. 

Ah, speaking of love, it reminded me that I had to check on Rent A Boyfriend—

Ding!

I was surprised when I got a text from Meng Bao. I knew I had to block him, but he'd just change his number again, right? Besides, I already gave him an ultimatum that he shouldn't say something like love when he couldn't even sort out his own feeling. 

*Meng Bao: Jie, are you still working? I want to take you for lunch. Just tell me your office address, and I will pick you up.*

I sighed. This big baby was so clingy to me, like a baby koala who always latched and refused to leave his Jiejie. Besides, why did he ask me for a

*Ying Jie: I can't. I'm currently with my boss to attend a meeting.*

'And that boss is your dad, Mr. Yang Menghuo. Besides, why do you want to know my office address anyway? You came here a few times, you know?' I chuckled as I kept thinking about how ridiculous the whole situation was. But I still had to keep this a secret from Meng Bao.

Why?

Well, because you wouldn't know what this guy would do if you offended him. He might look soft and cute in front, but he was truly ruthless inside. I still wouldn't believe him after so many lies he spouted at me. After finding out about his ruthless behaviour behind that sweet facade made me realize that Meng Bao was dangerous as he was unpredictable. 

All I could pray was that he would never take over his dad's company and never find out about my real identity as his dad's secretary. 

*Meng Bao: Okay, Jie. But I will come again this evening, okay?*

*Ying Jie: Huh? Why? Isn't it enough for you to bother me yesterday?*

*Meng Bao: Well… I've decided that I would be visiting you every single evening for dinner together. Don't worry, Jie. I will buy the groceries.*

'Aish, why does he need to come every day? He acts like a husband who returned home after a long day at work and expected me to cook dinner for us together! What is this playing husband-wife game thing he is at?!' 

I wanted to refute him, but knowing Meng Bao, he would probably do the same dog blood drama about an abandoned puppy who got abandoned by his beloved lover because he wasn't wanted anymore. 

'It's okay, Shi Ying. At least, Meng Bao is buying me the grocery, right? That's a good way to save money!' I thought. I finally decided upon it and sent him a text alongside a screenshot of what he should buy.

*Ying Jie: Buy this for our grocery. Remember, don't buy the wrong one! Always follow the brand that I want! They usually have the best taste with the best deal! Save money, and if you find a promo, do tell me! Also, if you found a coupon or something, USE IT!*

*Ying Jie: Grocery list. Png* 

*Meng Bao: Hehe, don't worry, Jie! I will find all groceries that you need!*

I smiled at his enthusiasm. I wouldn't lie that Meng Bao was really a cute guy. If only I knew less about him. Maybe we would be dating for real right now. 

But Buddha still loved me after all the bad luck and karma thrown at me. He still gave me the sign that Meng Bao was a scary man that I should avoid at all cost!

…

Well, I couldn't avoid him since he always latched on me. But at least I shouldn't be too easy on him! He was untrustworthy!

We arrived at the Feng Group Office after half an hour drive. I followed Mr. Yang and was greeted by Shi Qiang, who stood in the lobby, waiting for us. I giggled low when I saw Shi Qiang looking so proper, like a beautiful and professional secretary, while I knew what she did when she was in my room.

She would eat like a dump truck, burp, scratched her leg or stomach, and even farted so shamelessly. Even I wasn't that much of a slob. 

It made me wonder if God was really fair. I mean, how could Shi Qiang have much sloppiness, glutton, and laziness but still maintained her perfect figure and beauty. While I could get fat simply by eating air!

Shi Qiang bowed lightly and greeted Mr. Yang Zhuhuo, who was also dazed for a moment by Shi Qiang's beauty. 

"Mr. Yang, Mr. Feng Xiaojun has been waiting for you. Please follow me," Shi Qiang said.

"A—Ah, yes," Mr. Yang shook his head and followed Shi Qiang while I followed them from behind. I giggled lightly. Truly, my little sister was such a beauty that she had so many admirers. She could be a female lead in a novel, and I wouldn't question it! 

Shi Qiang was THAT pretty! 

We went to the highest floor, and Shi Qiang guided Mr. Yang to Mr. Feng's office. The moment was so close to the door, the door was suddenly opened, and a handsome man was smiling wide with his teeth showing as if he just had a good time inside Mr. Feng's office. He had a signature box smile that made him look both handsome and cute at the same time. 

The man was surprised when he saw Mr. Yang Zhuhuo, and he bowed his head politely before shaking his hands with Mr. Yang. 

"Ah, Uncle Yang, long time no see," the man said. 

'Uncle Yang?' I frowned as I kept staring at this handsome guy in front of us. He was probably around Meng Bao's age, or maybe even younger than him. 

'Is he one of Mr. Yang's nephew? But Mr. Yang said that he is an only son…'
