“Huh, what do you mean?” Xia Yuxun was stunned.

“I’m saying that I hope you can come and be my personal assistant.” Leng Siche answered while he looked at her.

Xia Yuxun scratched her head, a little troubled, “Personal assistant? But… other than fighting, I don’t know anything.”

Weren’t personal assistants all pretty women with a good educational background? She truly couldn’t associate herself with a position like that.

“Then, can you be my personal bodyguard?” Leng Siche didn’t give up.

“Um…”

Leng Siche was so gentle and weak. He truly needed more protection than Leng Sichen. But… she had been planning for so long and working so hard just to get a little bit closer to Leng Sichen…

She also found it hard to reject such a gentle Siche. What should she do? She was going crazy!

“Ah, I seemed to have troubled you. Lil’ Xun. You still like my brother, just like before, right?” Leng Siche’s tone was bitter.

“Um, ehem, ehem, I, I don’t! Plus, he is engaged with Ms. Bai…” Xia Yuxun’s complexion was looking a little ugly as she started cutting the bread on her plate randomly.

Before she could even finish, the plate under her knife… broke.

Leng Sichen watched how she reacted. His clean gaze unavoidably turned a little dark, “Lil’ Xun, you know he doesn’t like you, yet why do you keep going on like this? Aren’t you in pain? What has he done for you, for you to disregard everything else?”

Xia Yuxun shook her head numbly, “I can’t really tell you what good qualities he has. His personality is aggressive and his attitude towards me deserves a beating. However, there are some good qualities of his that nobody can replace. Loving him has become a habit of mine. It’s a part of my life now. It’s like a tumor that grew on a vital organ of mine. For me to give up on this means I have to give up a part of myself…”

Leng Siche never expected Xia Yuxun to make such a statement. His expression appeared shocked, “Really…”

Xia Yuxun coughed gently to break the awkward atmosphere and played it off, “Siche, it’s miraculous that I made such an emotional and tear-jerking statement. It really is true that because I am with Siche, I turned more feminine.”

Leng Siche bitterly smiled.

Lil’ Xun, that’s got nothing to do with me. It’s because your love for him is bone-deep.

This sure is troublesome.

For someone as stubborn as you, I’m not sure if I can endure until the day you give him up.

–

After breakfast, Xia Yuxun went to work with Leng Siche.

At the same time, inside the president’s office, Leng Sichen stood by the window and peered down coldly as Xia Yuxun got off of Leng Siche’s car.

Could it be that last night… they were together?

The other person who saw this scene clearly was his secretary Ai Fei, who was right by his side and had handed him his schedule.

Ai Fei’s expression slightly changed.

After they walked out of the office, Ai Fei stared at the elevator door and then smiled evilly. Then, she quickly took the “Under Construction” warning sign and tossed it into the trash.

Only after the surveillance camera confirmed that Xia Yuxun had stumbled her way into the elevator, did Ai Fei put the warning sign back.

Before long, Leng Siche came in after parking.

Ai Fei, who had been waiting for a long time, greeted him with a smile, “Vice President, the elevator is broken. Please take the stairs. Sorry.”

“Oh.” Leng Siche answered mindlessly while thinking that with that girl’s speed, she probably ran up to the 16th floor to be with his older brother.

At that moment, the elevator Xia Yuxun was on suddenly stopped just as it was about to reach the 10th floor. Darkness ensued…
