Boss Lady - Chapter 4 Hardworking Cousin

Li jing and Li Qiang left the hospital and came back on time before Li Na came home. Li Qiang was disheartened after what he had just experienced. He became determined to work hard in other to support his cousin and and help his aunt get treated as soon as possible. It wasn’t long after they heard a knock on the door, it was Li Na, she came back from the market with lots of bag and went into the kitchen and started cooking. Li Qiang watched his cousin cook and saw she enjoyed it a lot ,he was very pleased.He was in a very difficult position, he did not want to start a relationship with his cousin based on lies but he had told his aunt he would keep her condition a secret. Li Qiang helped his cousin, he was good when it came to cooking, the way he handled the knives was just amazing, Li Na looked at him with disbelief,it was as if she was dreaming.

“so you know how to cook and you let me do everything by myself” Li Na said holding a knife and pointing it at him. Li Qiang moved back and tried to reason with her.

“are you scared ?” she asked her trembling cousin

“I’m not, I’m not, you should know not to play with knives in the kitchen” Li Qiang said as he calmed down. They played around in the kitchen and finally prepared the meal.

It was evening already, Li Qiang sat down with his computer and began typing again, Li Na observed him from a corner and quietly left,she didn’t want to disturb him.

The clacking sound of keys woke Li Na up.

“Li Qiang what are you doing?” she asked softly. Li Qiang didn’t answer, he was too busy with his laptop and didn’t even notice her. Li Na knew that even if she screamed her head off, he still wouldn’t hear her. She swiftly took the computer away from him.

“hey!!!” Li Qiang shouted

“Oh so you can finally speak” Li Na said as she observed him and saw bags under his eyes

“did you sleep at all?” Li Na asked

“….” Li Qiang didn’t bother to answer because it was very clear he didn’t.

“listen,you won’t achieve anything if you type your laptop to death,so why don’t you go into your room,freshen up,and sleep” she said with a soft but commanding tone

“are you telling me or ordering me?” Li Qiang asked

“well I am older than you and I’m nice so I’m doing both” Li Na answered as she watched him go into his room reluctantly. She placed his laptop on the table and went inside her room to prepare for work.
