When the work hours was almost over, Lifen was about to leave the workplace too. But suddenly her phone rang. It was Deming calling.
Without any hesitation, Lifen picked up the call at once, "Hello! Mr.Devil. How was your day?"
Mr.Devil! The woman has really got true guts. Though people have called him 'devil' before but no one has ever dared to mention this on his face.
But it's totally fine since it was his woman who was calling him like this. From her mouth it felt more sweet than honey.
But still he love her previous endearment more.
"I was expecting you to call me 'my love' like you have called before. But it seems like you wan'na see me with my devil side. Then how could I ignore my lady's wishes", he said and Lifen could imagine his mischievous smile playing over his lips.
That smile never turns to be good. It often leaves her clueless or breathless or speechless or some times even in the maddening confusion.
Lifen shook her head to shrug off her thoughts.
Deming chuckled on the other side, "What were you thinking that it made you shook your head that intensely to remove your thoughts".
Hearing his words, she looked around, walked to every wall to inspect it properly, "Did you ask someone to fix surveillance cameras in my cabin? How did you know, what I have done moments ago".
Again a heartfelt laughter was heard, "There is no need of fixing cameras around you. I know your level of cuteness and also the process in which your brain works so definitely no need for the spies to spy you".
"Fine fine! I am not going to argue with you, Mr.Wang . Tell me why have you called me?", she asked as she packed some files in her office bag and put on the coat she has brought today.
"Just to inform you that I am on my way to pick you up. We can have our dinner together then", he said as he maneuvered the steering wheel of his car towards the parking lot of Li Corporation.
"Are you planning to have your dinners daily with me? How can I do that? My grandfather...", she was about to reject his words for having dinner with him but he deliberately interrupted.
"I wanted to enjoy my dinner with my family. And I have only you so I thought you won't mind. I too wanted to enjoy a cozy dinner about which the people often talk about", he paused then quickly added, "And about your grandfather, doesn't he always have his morning breakfast with you".
Lifen didn't knew whether to laugh or cry over his words. His words made her feel like he has got some agreement with her grandfather about sharing her time. One taking up the breakfast with her while the other was craving for the dinner.
But after the words which Deming has used on her, she won't be able to refuse him. She could only say, "Okay I will waiting for you to arrive!".
She was about to hung up the call when heard him add, "No need to wait, Little Cat. I have already been waiting for you in the parking lot. My heaven won't forgive me if I made you wait ever. Quick, come down".
When Lifen reached downstairs, Deming was all ready in his ash grey Audi R8. Seeing her coming towards him, he stepped out and went to the other side to open the passenger seat door for her.
"So where are we going?", she asked.
"Since we have good time to spent today so first we will go to the supermarket and pick some fresh ingredients for the dinner. I really loved your cooking but today I will cook for you", he said as he drove off from Li Corporation.
Lifen didn't said anything, just gave a warm smile and nodded to his words. She knew he didn't wanted to tire her and at the same time doesn't want the maids to interrupt their sweet time.

In H Nation,
Gao Ren has come to meet his grandfather.
"Grandpa, I have tried my best and even took initiative to call her but she insulted me and didn't gave me any face. She hung up the call on my face. I am telling you grandpa, I am not going to marry such a arrogant woman. There is no way she would suit by my side", his tone was all furious.
The old man just gave a look to his grandson and then tapped his walking cane hard on the ground, "Hmph! Do you think you have the privilege to do so? You being a playboy, won't know that no good family in H nation would give you their daughters. Even if they agree then it will solely for the properties we, the Gao family hold", he paused and stood up.
"You are only capable to brag about yourself. The youngsters of your age are already at the peak of success. But look at yourself, still joking around with those shameless girls of no use", he added.
Hearing the old man's words, he could only grit his teeth. This was not the first time his grandfather was looking down on him. It's has always been like this.
But somthing that enraged him today was the insult Li Lifen has done on phone. How dare she look down on him? Does she really think herself that capable?
'If she thinks so then I will make her come across the fact that women are created by God to be vulnerable and be at men's mercy', he made a promise to himself.
The old man looked at his grandson and said, "Try more. Sooner or later she will definitely give in to your efforts. Women are always like this. And don't forget she isn't any women we are talking about. She can become our trump card in future. So try hard to get her under your arms".
Gao Ren's eyes shone with a malicious glint when he heard his grandfather. 'He will definitely make her submit to him by hook and crook. Now he knows what exactly has to do with her. She will regret hanging up the call on his face', he thought inwardly.
