Two-faced: Doting Husband & Shameless Wife - Chapter 91
“Well … what should we talk about?” Ling Huang tapped his fork.
Ling Yue wiped her mouth. “I have no excuse for last night. But I want to tell you something.” Ling Yue’s mysterious toned speech made Ling Huang frown. “I’m … getting married soon.”
Clangg!
The fork that Ling Huang was holding fell to the floor, startling the two of them. A servant immediately replaced it with a new one. “You’re really good at joking right now.” Ling Huang chuckled. “Really surprised me.”
Ling Yue shrugged and stood up. “It’s up to you whether you want to believe it or not and tell the others. Now I will go to work and pursue my love.” She winked and left the house before Ling Huang could process everything.
Mr. Chen glanced at front rear view mirror many times. “Will you attend something important?” This old man could not help but ask to see his young lady dressing up along the road and styling her hair many times.
“I will go to war.” Ling Yue answered nonchalantly.
Mr. Chen just shook his head and dropped her in front of King Empire building. “Well, good luck, Miss!”
“Thank you!”
Ling Yue took a deep breath and got out of from the car.
“Okay, this will be fine.”
As she stepped inside the office, the people who saw her stopped whatever their doing. Ling Yue walked nervously because this was the first time for her without hiding herself.
Her upper body was clad in a slim black long-sleeved shirt in stark contrast to her milk skin. She put her shirt into a knee-length gray pencil skirt with two black buŧŧons on its left and right sides as accessoris. Her hair was left loose and slightly curled at the end. She gives the impression of classy, sassy and looks a little hardworking.
She wanted her appearance attracted Xi Jian’s attention but instead attracted the attention of those around her.
People who had never seen her wondered who she was and who knew her dropped their jaw to the floor.
Mo Yini, after being told by one of colleagues had come to pay attention to Ling Yue. “Does the world will come to end? Why does that geeky girl suddenly change?” She had to admit that Ling Yue looked very attractive. No wonder the men in their department began to look for reasons to swarm in her room.
Ling Yue did not expect this excessive attention. She just needed Xi Jian’s attention. but she still politely treats people who suddenly claim to be her friends and need her help.
Xi Jian got out of the elevator and found the floor of his office room sounding noisy. He asked Bai Xu to check and proceed to his room. Bai Xu got the gist of what was happening.
Xi Jian’s two secretaries almost threw their eyes out when they found out the elegant woman passing before them was Ling Yue.
“What happened?”
“That … uhm …” Ling Yue suddenly showed her beauty and this office flies swarmed around her. Bai Xu couldn’t possibly say that. He needs to sort out the right words so that his colleagues were saved.
“Miss Ling suddenly has new colleagues.”
Xi Jian furrowed his brows. “What colleagues?”
“That … should I call Miss Ling here for you so you can ask yourself?”
“Since when did you beat around the bush?” Xi Jian opened the file. Bai Xu usually would explain without his asking further.
“I think it’s easier to see for yourself than to explain it.” Bai Xu said awkwardly.
Xi Jian still couldn’t get rid Ling Yue’s from his head since they parted this morning. He needed to concentrate for a while and organize his thoughts first so he refused Bai Xu’s advice.
When lunch time arrived, Xi Jian heard a noise louder than before. He looked at his two gloomy secretaries then looked towards Ling Yue’s room.
“I think you should see for yourself, Sir.” Bai Xu only hoped that Xi Jian realized immediately what had happened.
Xi Jian headed for Ling Yue’s open room. The usually spacious lounge suddenly feels crowded. Maybe there were six, seven, there couldn’t be a dozen men there. Some of them sat and some flocked around her desk. And the source of attention was sitting in her chair, in the middle of them, pointing to something on the paper they were holding.
She was like a queen surrounded by her reverse-harem.
“What is this?” Xi Jian’s blood boiled. He understood the cause.
All heads turned to him, once they realized who was at the door, they all stood up and greet him. Ling Yue saw the target of her love appear, she standing and smiling as beautiful as possible.
“Oh Mr. Xi–”
“Everyone out!”
Xi Jian spoke in low chilly voice that could freeze your mind. The man there immediately got out without saying a word. They excused themselves and kept their gaze down as they passed Xi Jian. The room that was rowdy suddenly silent as in the cemetery. Bai Xu came out too and closed the door behind him.
“What.do.you.think.you.are.doing?” Xi Jian approached her. His jaw shut tightly.
Ling Yue who had been full of fighting spirit suddenly shrunk facing Xi Jian’s cold face with sadistic looking.
“Why are you talking to me like that?” Ling Yue said gravely.
“Where are your glasses?” Xi Jian suddenly searched her bag and took her glasses then forced it onto Ling Yue. “And do something about your hair!” Xi Jian saw one of the men touch Ling Yue’s hair. He wish to break those fingers immediately.
Ling Yue brushed aside his hands and walked backwards. “What are you doing? You sound like my brother!” She could not distinguish Xi Jian’s jealousy from her excessive brother’s way.
“I’m NOT your damn brother!” Xi Jian raised his voice. “I gave you a early leave today. Go back home now and come in tomorrow. Like usually.” Xi Jian emphasized his last words.
