Chapter 58 - Delaying Her Proposal

Feng Xinying was again embarrassed. She didn't know where to look at.

Xie Yuansheng had to tease her and couldn't leave this golden opportunity. He asked the driver, "The car is smelling fresh. What perfume have you used?"

"Young master, yesterday the car was smelling full of young miss's face lotion. It was splashed all across the floor. I had to scrub it real hard to remove the greasiness. Even the seat was badly stained. I had to work for a long time to remove it," replied the driver with a huge grin as though the master would pat his shoulders.

Feng Xinying gritted her teeth. This driver needed to shut his mouth. Before he could speak any further she shouted at him, "Throw the lotion in a trash can!" She was as red as a tomato now.

The way she shouted, the driver cringed. He became quiet and drove the car for the rest of the journey without speaking a word while Xie Yuansheng kept grinning. "Yingying, do you remember what happened in the car yesterday?"

She shifted to the far end of the seat away from Xie Yuansheng and started looking out. She promised herself that she would never drink alcohol.

When they reached the office, they walked together to the building from the parking area. But just before they were about to get in the lift, Xie Yuansheng was stopped by a group of managers. Feng Xinying left him and took the lift upstairs.

She looked around and saw that Yun Chen hadn't come. She smiled and was happy that she would work in peace for a week.

She switched on her computer and the first thing she opened was the files that needed that day's attention. While she was working, she didn't even notice that Xie Yuansheng had passed by her cubicle. He had stared at her hard to draw her attention but she was only looking at her computer. All other employees stood up to greet the CEO except her. When the girls around her saw that the CEO stared hard at the head secretary and she didn't even even have the curtsey to greet them, they sniggered. One of them laughed and said, "She has invited the dislike of the CEO."

It was almost lunch when she started feeling hungry. She closed all the windows on her computer and was about to switch it off when she saw that her fashion project's file was glaring at her, demanding her attention. But after yesterday's incident, how could she go ahead with the project. She shuddered and switched off the computer. Just as when she was about to leave, she saw Wang Zirong stepping out of the elevator to enter their floor.

Feng Xinying gritted her teeth for the second time during the day. What did Wang Zirong wanted this time? Couldn't he leave Xie Yuansheng alone? Even though Feng Xinying was feeling very hungry, she didn't go to the cafeteria. instead she stayed there, fixed on her seat as her gaze followed Wang Zirong to Xie Yuansheng's office. She was wearing a tight purple blouse with a skirt that was barely reaching mid-thigh.

Since it was lunch time, she was certain that Wang Zirong had come to spend time and have lunch with Xie Yuansheng. Feng Xinying was angry as to to how come she could even come and spend time with Xie Yuansheng after Yue's incident.

Wang Zirong glanced at Feng Xinying just before she entered the office and rolled her eyes.

As soon as she entered his office, Feng Xinying became anxious. She wondered what they must be doing inside. She knew that Wang Zirong was clingy by nature. So it was possible that she might be sitting next to Xie Yuansheng and having lunch or it is possible that she was feeding him.

Feng Xinyin got up from her chair and reached the entrance of the office. She pressed her ear to the wooden door to hear what they were talking but nothing could be heard. All of a sudden a ping was heard on her cellphone.

[Clause no 56: You cannot spy on your husband.]

Her eyes became wide when she read it and she turned to leave the place very quietly, when the door opened, a hand grabbed her and pulled her in. There was so much force that she tumbled over the person who had pulled her.

"What are you doing Feng Xinying?" he asked as she found her head in his chest. Her bun had undone and her hair were spread all over his chest covering her face. She bit her lips as she raised her head from there. She looked up at him and didn't know what to stay. She found herself saying, "I am hungry and was going to the cafeteria. So I thought I'd ask you if you wanted to eat something. After all as your secretary, this is my duty."

"Well, now that you have asked, you may leave Feng Xinying," said Wang Zirong from behind. She had come near them to remove her hand from Xie Yuansheng's grip.

She came and stood near him and removed her hand from his grasp. Feng Xinying became angry. She wondered as to how many times did she have to save Xie Yuansheng from the likes of Wang Zirong. She held Xie Yuansheng's hand and started pulling him out of the office as Wang Zirong stood there stupefied.

"Mr. CEO, let us go and have lunch at the cafeteria. It will be nice if you bond with your employees," said Feng Xinying and dragged him away.
