Master Duan’s Beloved Wife: A Lovely Spendthrift - Chapter 13
Yueyu suddenly realized that Jin Moli’s arrogance came from the clout of her father, a major shareholder of the bank.
Jin Moli and He yueyu were both young ladies from rich families. How come Jin Moli could work, but He Yueyu’s three high-handed brothers barricaded her in the house like a she was a prisoner?
The world was unfair. Coming to the fore was as difficult as going to heaven for He Yueyu.
Just when He Yueyu was indignant in her heart, Duan Weiqi patted her little face, “What are you thinking? Does your stomach still ache? Should I send for a doctor?”
She flushed, “You… you have known what happened?” Jesus, she would be very embarrassed if he found she was having her period.
“Yes. If not, how come you were so tired and even fainted?” His face was full of concern, “You will be grounded to rest in the bed if such things happen again.”
“Hey, I’m not those who are old, weak, ill or disabled. How boring it is if I am barricaded in the house.”
At the moment, embarrassing purrs coming from her stomach reminded her that she did not have breakfast and lunch. She lost her appetite due to menstruation in the morning and fainted at noon.
“Are you hungry?” He smiled.
She nodded piteously.
“What do you want to eat?”
“Will you satisfy me no matter what I want to eat?” An idea of teasing him came to her. She intended to moderately penalize him since he witnessed all her awkward moments and put her under the hostile attack of Jin Moli.
Duan Weiqi listened with respectful attention, “Of course, any delicacies you like.” Without any reason, he just wanted to dote on her, even to spoil her.
“Eh…” She rolled her flexible eyes, with a vicious smile, “I want osmanthus cake from Delicacy Restaurant, sweet dumplings filled with red beans from Fuman Restaurant, Chinese Style Fried Chicken with cayenne pepper from Weihuang Hotel, Iceland cod from Lesl Restaurant… ”
Ho ho, he would regret making that promise to her!
“Anything else?”
“Uh?” She could not help frowning, looking at him adorably, “Anything else? That is what you wanted to say?” Hearing such requests, any of my three bothers would point to her head and accuse her of being a spoiled and capricious young lady.
“What else do you wish me to say?” He gave her a little pinch on her face, then took out of his mobile phone to make a call, “Secretary Jin, Come in.”
Eh? Why did he ask secretary Jin to come in?
When Yueyu was pondering, Jin Moli walked in from outside. She directly came to Duan Weiqi’s lounge, feeling a pain in the chest when seeing Duan Weiqi holding He Yueyue’s little hand.
“Mr. Duan, any orders?” She asked as calmly as she could.
“Yueyu is hungry. She wants to eat osmanthus cake from Delicacy Restaurant, sweet dumplings filled with red beans from Fuman Restaurant, Chinese Style Fried Chicken with cayenne pepper from Weihuang Hotel, Iceland cod from Lesl Restaurant… ”
After stating it in a gentle and gracious way, he continued with a peremptory tone, “Go buy these delicacies as fast as possible.”
“What?” Jin Moli was startled, “Mr. Duan, are you asking me to buy lunch for her?”
“Yes, any problem?” Duan Weiqi raised his eyebrows simperingly.
“But I am a secretary of the bank, neither an employee running errands for her nor her personal servant.” She looked exasperated.
“Neither is Yueyu. But you asked her to run errands, didn’t you?” He still kept calm and showed no anger, but his tough tone made Jin Moli nervous and jumpy.
He curled up his lips sarcastically, “Now, Yueyu fainted due to your unreasonable orders. Shouldn’t you make compensation to her as her colleague?”
Hearing this, Yueyu widened her eyes in astonishment. On the contrary, Jin Moli gritted her teeth, “Mr. Duan, I just arranged some reasonable work for Miss He when you were on a business trip.”
“Did you mean it’s unreasonable for me to ask you to buy lunch for Yueyu?”
“I… ”
“I don’t appreciate those subordinates who disobey the superior…” He suddenly became serious, “I believe you will know what to do if you still want to work here.”
This was so typical of Duan Weiqi. Without losing his temper and yelling at others, he could reprimand them and make them feel ashamed. Forced by his aggressiveness, Jin Moli dared not talk back so she nodded, “Yes, Mr. Duan, I’ll do it right now.”
“Wait a moment…”
When she turned around, Duan Weiqi asked her to stop and looked at her with cold eyes, “Hope these things I dislike will never happen again. I believe you understand what I said.”
Jin Moli nodded, “I get it, Mr. Duan.”
After Jin Moli left, He Yueyu looked at Duan Weiqi with a little surprise, “Mr. Duan, why were you so harsh to secretary Jin?”
Duan Weiqi stretched out his hand and ruffled her hair, “Because she treated you in a way I hate most. I just dealt with her as what she had done to you.”
Looking at his handsome face with a little surprise, Yueyu was thankful to him at the moment.
He cared about her…
He… did care about her!
She must be the happiest assistant in the world.
Because her boss awakened her and elaborately cooked breakfast for her every morning. Sometimes, he even told her some interesting things.
Besides, her boss drove her in his sports car to the bank in the morning and invited her to enjoy delicious lunch in high-class restaurants near the bank at noon.
After dinner, her boss sat beside her to watch TV in the living room, gently carried her in his arms to her bedroom and covered her with quilt when she fell asleep unknowingly.
He Yueyu was increasingly confused about whether she was actually his assistant or his girlfriend.
If she was regarded as an assistant, the boss shouldn’t have lived with his female assistant.
But if she was regarded as his girlfriend, he never said he loved her or bought any flowers for her.
Although he carried her in his arms or hugged her occasionally, he did not kiss her once. Did it mean that she was not glamorous enough? Did she completely misunderstand her status in the heart of Duan Weiqi?
He Yueyu had never felt distressed like this since her childhood. She had been protected in the Ivory Tower as a treasure of her three brothers. They always satisfied her no matter what difficulties they had to go through as long as she made a demand.
She did not have any experience of falling in love. Probably because the brothers thought she was still young and too innocent, they were quite strict in limiting her to making friends. Generally speaking, no male was allowed to approach her within 3 meters.
She thought no one would be better than her three brothers. But the appearance of Duan Weiqi made her original thought collapse.
After living with him for a period, her heart was drawn by him for no reason. She would unexpectedly feel deeply satisfied as long as she saw him.
The Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration of Jinfeng Bank would be held tonight. She was one of the major planners. And, almost eighty percent of the ideas put forward by her was accepted by Duan Weiqi.
Not only that, but he commended her upon her competence, which made her slightly pleased with herself.
From a distance, He Yueyu saw Duan Weiqi, dressed in an expensive business suit, was politely and leisurely talking with several old men. When he glanced at her, she obviously found a beckoning tenderness in his eyes.
Seeing her waving at him, he gave her a soothing smile which indicated that he would come to her soon after finishing the work.
“Did you have a brain? How come you made such a stupid mistake?”
A severe reprimand came to He Yueyu’s ears just then. Following the sound, He Yueyu saw Jin Moli was reprimanding Meiyu.
