"I am sorry, mister Jiang," Chen Han's secretary spoke to Jiang Zu with a polite smile on his face. His head was slightly bowed and he was pretending to be as calm as he could while facing the almost hysterical r in front of him.
"What do you an?" Jiang Zu questioned with an upset voice. "Did you really tell her that it was who ca to see her?"
Jiang Zu was used to being treated kindly by Chen Han, for him everything that was happening to him was simply new to him.
Even though he had tried to contact Chen Han through various ans the woman had refused to answer his calls and texts.
To make things even worse, Chen Han was simply refusing to talk to him even though he was trying to reach out to her through various ans and channels.
And this was Jiang Zu's first ti being treated like this, Chen Han was clearly the one who had chased after him for a very long ti. How in the world did the situation turn around like this and in such a manner?
He rembered being treated like a precious gem which Chen Han couldn't get enough of, so how could Jiang Zu accept such a thing?
The assistant Chen Han did not lose his poise even though he was being blad for sothing he didn't do.
This was because he was aware of his position very well.
Even though Jiang Zu was no longer the beauty who held the heart of his boss, he was well aware of the fact that a woman's thoughts and actions could never be predicted or understood.
What if Chen Han went back to Jiang Zu? She had kept this r the closest to her. In case the wheel of fortune started to turn for Jiang Zu again, wouldn't he lose a seven-figure job for no reason?
He might as well suck it for the ti being and once everything was confird —
'I will pay back double the humiliation to this r,' the assistant thought.
He continued to smile at Jiang Zu and replied, "Of course, I did. But Miss Chen is busy with a new project and cannot afford to leave such an important matter in the hands of soone else."
A load of rubbish, Jiang Zu thought. In the past, Chen Han would leave anything and everything behind as long as he called her. But now she was refusing to see him under the pretext that she was too busy? Who was Chen Han trying to fool?
Jiang Zu wanted to say sothing scathing but when he thought about how he might need Chen Han for sothing, he swallowed his words and nodded.
He understandably nodded and said to the assistant, "Then please let her know that I will be waiting for her call, ask her to contact as soon as possible."
"Sure, Mister Jiang. I will let Miss Chen know," Mister Assistant nodded. His attitude was still polite and friendly.
Jiang Zu nodded and took his leave. Once the r was gone, Jin Bao heaved a sigh of relief and turned to walk inside the office once again.
As soon as he entered, he ran into Chen Han's secretary. Xuan Yan.
"Whats the matter with you?" She asked, sounding amused. "Why do you have to pay so much attention to that r? He had lost all the favour, you can simply kick him out. Why do you treat him so politely."
"What do you know?"Jin Bao drawled, stretching the vowels nicely. "Am I not doing this because there is a chance that r might be able to make a coback? What if he climbed back up? One cannot trust the love of a woman."
He grumbled and Xuan Yan raised a brow. She walked over to Jin Bao and hugged him with one of her arms. She said to him, "Are you really talking about how untrustable a woman's love is in front of your girlfriend?"
"Humph, who knows what kind of plans and intentions you are hiding behind that scheming face?" Jin Bao said to the woman with a wary look in his eyes.
Xuan Yan smiled. Her smile resembled a cunning fox as she dragged Jin Bao to the restroom. "Co with , I will show you what intentions I have."
"Ah! Ah! Let go of ! We are at work!"

"Is everything alright?" Mo Qiang raised her head and looked at Shao Hui who returned from the backyard.
Shao Hui flinched. He turned to look at Mo Qiang and asked dumbly, "Did you say sothing to ?"
Mo Qiang looked around the now-empty living room. She then turned to look at Shao Hui and said to him, "Given that there is no one in the living room, I believe that I spoke to you."
She tilted her head to the side and looked at the r who was acting all jumpy.
"Oh—yes…there is no one else in the room of course you are talking to ," Shao Hui spoke distractedly. Seeing him act like this Mo Qiang could not help but frown.
She stood up and walked over to where the r was standing and placed her hand on his forehead but as soon as she touched Shao Hui, the r jumped like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Mo Qiang and Shao Hui both jumped back from one another.
"What? What are you doing ?" Shao Hui was thinking about how to deal with Chen Han and did not notice soone getting close to him.
It was natural for him to feel scared and jumpy when soone approached him so suddenly.
Mo Qiang was simply surprised when Shao Hui suddenly scread. She had not expected the r to scream all of a sudden just because she touched him.
"What do you an? I was just checking if there was sothing wrong with you?" Mo Qiang answered with a frown which deepened even further as she looked at the r in front of her. "You are awfully quiet so I thought you caught a fever or sothing. Why did you have to scream like that?"
