Chapter 219 - 219 Are You Afraid?

Hurm, as long as I'm with him, I think I will be okay then.

"That's lovely. Now put your seat belt on." He starts the car and roars into the traffic.

In no time we reach to a halt outside the mansion where Assistant Yu and I a bit surprised seeing a black suit man with sunglass on, that shooter I snap. They are waiting for us on the steps.

There are only a few cars, mine also there.

Oh no, I could forget my babe beetle was still here.

"Get down babe, I got something to get done in fast and we get home so I can have a few hours all of you to myself only," He grasps my hand and leads on.

"We go home now then," I grumble.

"NO," He denies.

Assistant Yu and that shooter man nod at us as we pass before they follow us in.

"All is okay?" He asks as he leads me to the bar section.

Only a few staff flying around in a fl.u.s.ter working their jobs.

He sits me down on a barstool and takes the one opposite me, resting my hand in his lap.

"All in control, Master," Assistant Yu rumbles.

"All the chef and maid are in the kitchen and the instrument band will be here at four to set up. Muxin has it all under control, master," He waves Ian over, and I bristle a bit when Yu mention that annoying name.

"Great, where is she?" Feng Teng asks.

"She's in your office sorting out the gift bags," Assistant Yu inform.

Ian approaches and swings his tea towel over his shoulder. His warm smile makes me return one automatically.

He is the sweetest man.

"Babe. Do you want a drink?" Feng Teng squeezes my hand in his lap.

"Just some water, please," I say.

"Make that two," He orders before turns back to me.

"What would you like to eat?" He asks.

"Mmm, wagyu steak," I say all wide-eyed and enthusiastically.

That was the best steak I've ever had.

He smiles.

"Ian tells Butler Zhang we'll have the steak twice with the new gravy sauces and both medium. We'll eat here," He instructed.

"Noted, master," Ian chirps happily as he placing two bottles of water and a glass on the stools before making his way to the kitchen.

"Babe, can you stay here while I go and check on a few things?" Feng Teng asks as he drops my hand in his lap and takes a bottle, pouring some water into my glass.

I arch an eyebrow at him.

"Is it long?" I ask.

"No, won't be long," he says slowly, flicking a cautious eye at me.

Then I hear Assistant low laugh.

"Are you afraid?" He asks.

"Hmm, I suppose not," I shrug and look around the bar surround.

He stands and places my hand in my lap, then kisses on my forehead as he picks up his bottle of water.

"Yu, Feng Lun?"

"We are ready," Assistant Yun replies.

He brushes the hair away from my face.

"Alright then, babe I'll be as quick as I can. Are you sure you're okay here?" He asks again.

"Yeah, I'll be fine." I shoo him away.

They leave me at the bar section among the chaos of staff, frantically polishing glasses and rearranged the table.

So busy.

Then I hear my phone ringing from my bag and I pull it out, finding Miss Yi Ran name pop up on my screen. I should let it go to voicemail, it is my day off, but this could be my opportunity to get out of drinks with her.

"Hi, Yi Ran," I sing.

"Hi, Wei Lin, how are you?" She asks as soon as I answer.

Miss Yi Ran, she's so friendly and too friendly.

"All good, you?" I ask back.

"Lovely. Hey, I've received your fee structure and designs. All was a masterpiece." She sings.

"Oj, I'm glad you like them," Her enthusiasm will be a pleasure to work with, I suppose

"So since I've seen how amazing your drawing is, now I'm eager to start," She says excitedly.

"Sure, if you could settle the consultation fee, then since you've received the invoice, so we can start the engine," I stated.

"Okay, I'll sort a transfer then. Do you have the company bank details?" she asks.

"I don't but could I ask you to call the office? Today my day off so I can't lay my hands on them at the moment." I inform.

"Oh? I'm sorry." She says guiltily.

"It's okay, I don't mind. Because it was a last-minute thing so not a problem, at all," I assure her.

"Are you doing anything nice?" she enquires.

I smile.

"Yes, I am. Just spending my quality time with my lover," Eh that sounds weird.

He is my husband now. But better keep this good news first.

"Oh." She answers.

In sudden, the silence falls down the phone.

"Yi ran? Are you still there?" I glance at my phone to see if the call has dropped.

But NO.

"Hello?" I call."

"Yes Sorry. I thought you've said there was no one," She laughs.

"Haha. I meant to say there's no relationship trouble. Sorry my bad," I explained.

'" Ahh…I see! Well, I'll let you get back to your quality time." She sings.

"Thank you. Alright, then I'll call you next week so we can start to proceed to work on it," I grate.

"Sure that's great. Okay, bye Wei Lin," She hangs up, and I instantly realise that I didn't pull out of the drinks yet.

She didn't confirm either, though. I put my phone back in my bag and seeing Ian on his way over with a box full of c.o.c.ktail ingredients and fresh fruit.

'" How are you pretty?" Ian sings.

"Very fine. And you?" I ask back.

He heaves the big box onto the bar and I help him by pulling it towards me.

"Very fine l too, would you be...like my new wine brew?" He frowns.

"Oh, yes!" I sound way too eager.

Ian wine brew or shake never disappointing. I love his wine so much since the last time mix wine.

VERY GOOD!

He chuckles and passes me a small chopping board and a paring knife.

"You cut this," he instructs, handing me a basket of various fruits from the box.

I collect a strawberry, hull it and chop it in half.

"Yes, this is good." Ian nods at me as he starts pouring various wine into a large silver container.

As work my way through the whole pile of strawberries, popping them in a sealable container as I go, then start on the lemons.

Then Ian sings some jazz style song softly as we sit at the bar, me watching with interest between my chopping duties as he measures, pours and generally faffs about with various c.o.c.ktail equipment.
