“President Mo, come, have a seat. I’m really sorry that I had something to attend to this morning.” President Zhang politely exchanging conventional greetings with Mo Beichen.

Halfway through the dinner, President Zhang and Mo Beichen went to the private room next door for some business talks, leaving Xia Weilan with the young lady.

The young lady took a glance at Xia Weilan and held her arms as she said, “Secretary Xia, help me de-shell these prawns.”

Xia Weilan blinked. She had already noticed since just now that this girl was arrogant. But Mo Beichen really cared about this business deal and it seemed that President Zhang really pampered this little girl.

She took a deep breath and figured that why should she bother about this insensible girl. So, she started de-shelling the prawns quietly. 

“Help me refill my drinks!” The girl saw Xia Weilan acting so obediently so she regarded her like those secretaries in President Zhang’s office and started to order her around.

Mo Beichen who already stood at the door saw what Xia Weilan was doing. He was angry seeing Xia Weilan following other’s orders!

But Mo Beichen thought for a while and went back to the private room next door.

A few minutes later, President Zhang and Mo Beichen returned to the room. The young girl behaved a little when she saw them coming in and didn’t order Xia Weilan to do things more.

Mo Beichen sat beside Xia Weilan with an indifferent expression.

“President Mo, since we’ve already gone through the main things, I’ll go to your office tomorrow to sign the contract.” President Zhang said with a smile.

Mo Beichen agreed and suddenly stared at the young lady seated across him. He fixed his stare at her and there was an eerie gush of cold wind blowing across the dining table.

President thought that Mo Beichen was interested in his little lover and he was starting to get annoyed. But he didn’t expect to hear Mo Beichen say, “I really hated those who do plastic surgery. It’s such an eyesore!”

“Since when did President Zhang’s taste become this bad?” Mo Beichen stared at President Zhang.

President Zhang’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Mo Beichen’s words. He took another glance at the young model and a look of disdain flashed across his eyes. The more he looked at the girl’s face, the odder it was. She really made him lose his face.

“I…” The young model widened her eyes in disbelief. She stared at President Zhang in panic and then dreadfully swept her glance back to Mo Beichen.

“That’s enough. Go home once you’re done eating!” President Zhang’s face turned cold.

Even Xia Weilan also stared at Mo Beichen in astonishment. She couldn’t figure out why Mo Beichen started to mind about other’s business. But Mo Beichen suddenly stood up. “We’ll make a move first.”

As soon as he finished his words, he led Xia Weilan out of the private room.

President Zhang’s face turned hideous as he stared at the young model’s face. 

“Just look at you. I’ve already told you not to do plastic surgery and yet you turned yourself into a monster. Others could tell from a glance. How dare I bring you out with me in the future? You’re really embarrassing me!”

After that, Xia Weilan couldn’t quite hear what they were talking about inside. She followed Mo Beichen and got into the car.

“Hubby…” Xia Weilan couldn’t really figure out what’s going on with Mo Beichen today. She looked confusingly at Mo Beichen who’s driving.

But it seemed that Mo Beichen didn’t hear her. He drove the car really fast and Xia Weilan was so frightened that she grabbed her safety belt tightly.

“Hubby, what’s wrong with you?” Xia Weilan was puzzled. “Is it because the business deal didn’t work out?”

“If this deal doesn’t work out, there’re still other opportunities…” Xia Weilan comforted in a soft voice. 

“Shut up!” Mo Beichen frowned and suddenly scolded in a cold voice, “Be aware of your identity as Mrs Mo!”

How dare you talk and laugh at school with another guy at school and simply let a young model bully during dinner!

Xia Weilan rubbed her nose and thought that it was her fault that Mo Beichen’s work was not going smoothly. She lowered her head and said, “I’ll be more careful next time!”

Seeing her in such an obedient and lovable manner, Mo Beichen cooled down a little. He didn’t expect that in the next second, Xia Weilan said in a sincere manner, “I’ll make sure I won’t embarrass you.”

Mo Beichen clenched his fist as he felt really frustrated. Could it be that she wasn’t even aware of what she’d done wrong?

That evening, Mo Beichen informed Xia Weilan that she’ll be going to Mo Corp as his assistant on Sunday too. His reason was that Xu Wei is still on leave.

Xia Weilan nodded and agreed.

The next morning, Xia Weilan woke up by a phone call.

“Miss Weilan, yesterday our director checked on the film and felt that there’s a scene that needs retake. Can you come to school now? It’ll only take a while.”

Xia Weilan looked at the clock, she could still make it to Mo Corp’s office hours. So she agreed. 

When Mo Beichen heard that Xia Weilan needed to rush to school before going to the office, he stared at her coldly and drove out alone.

While Xia Weilan was busy filming, the phone in her bag kept vibrating. But nobody noticed it. By the time Xia Weilan finished filming, she picked up her phone and saw that Mo Beichen had called her a few times and sent a few messages to her. 

[I’ve sent the document to your email!]

[Print them out. I’ll need it at eight!]

[It’s already eight!]

Xia Weilan looked at the time, it’s five minutes past eight. She quickly called Mo Beichen while she rushed to the office.

“Where are you?” The moment Mo Beichen picked up the phone, he lashed out at her.

“I’ll be there in five minutes!” Xia Weilan quickly hung up the phone as she drove.

In the office, Mo Beichen was so mad that he threw the phone into the coffee. The phone dimmed and turned off by itself.

Xia Weilan is really getting out of control now. Since when is Mo Corp tolerating an employee that is not punctual? If Xia Weilan was his employee, he would have fired her long ago!

When Xia Weilan reached Mo Corp office, she learned from an employee that Mo Beichen was already in the conference room with President Zhang.

Xia Weilan immediately rushed into the secretary’s office. She switched on her laptop and printed out the document that Mo Beichen sent. 

Xia Roulin followed another manager and she was heading to the office to talk about some details on the collaboration. She halted her footsteps when she saw Xia Weilan’s pacing busily inside a room not far away. She asked curiously, “Why is Xia Weilan here?”

The manager took a glance at Xia Weilan and said, “Secretary Xu was on leave. The president requested for her to stand in for Secretary Xu. But the president was already in the meeting and she just started to prepare the documents!”

A smile flashed across Xia Roulin’s eyes as she took the joy of Xia Weilan’s misfortune.

Inside the conference room, President Zhang was staring at Mo Beichen strangely. Because he noticed that Mo Beichen was wearing a cold face and he kept looking at his watch as if he was waiting for someone.

“President Mo, your secretary was really not reliable. I would have fired her long ago if I were you!”

Not long later, the door suddenly opened and Xia Weilan came rushing, carrying some files in her hand. She said while panting, “President Mo, please come outside with me for a while. I have to tell you something.”

President Zhang widened his eyes as he couldn’t believe that this secretary dared to be impudent. But what he didn’t expect was that although Mo Beichen was not happy, he still followed her outside.

“Are you discussing the real estate in the north city with President Zhang?” Xia Weilan only knew about this when she was doing the printing just now.

“What are you trying to say? Mo Beichen said in an unfriendly manner, “The one who was not punctual wanted to waste my time now?”
