Feng Xiao Qing turned around, wanting to clean her drool up as soon as possible. However... before she could open the door, the Big Buddha called her once again, "Did I allow you to leave the room?"
Feng Xiao Qing froze on the spot. She turned around and gazed indignantly at the aloof man in front of her. 'This is wrong... That is wrong... what actually does he want her to do?' Feng Xiao Qing berated him inwardly. 'Money... money... remember that he is your money bag!' Feng Xiao Qing chanted to herself.
Lu Yi Feng saw the indignant look on her face, making him want to laugh. His personality didn't allow him to laugh easily, but her expression was truly hilarious. Probably because she tried to maintain her composure, her face looked like it was twitching everywhere. He remained cold, maintaining his expression without any difficulty. Lu Yi Feng snorted and said, "What? Do you have something to say?"
'Money bag... money bag... Xiao Xi Xi is going to attend school soon and she needs the money for it. Don't be angry! Don't be angry!' She kept chanting inwardly, trying not to offend the Big Buddha. Pei! If she didn't need his money, she would have already yelled at him and even kicked his gut!
She adjusted her expression and changed it into a flattering expression. Feng Xiao Qing smiled and said mockingly, "Ah... Boss... no... no... no... this one has nothing to say. So... what should this humble servant do to please you, Boss?"
Lu Yi Feng looked at her like she was a lunatic. "Do you think you are filming a historical drama? What's with that stupid way of talking?"
'F*ck you!' Feng Xiao Qing cursed him inside her mind. She put both of her hands behind her back and she pulled out her middle fingers, completing her curse. She couldn't curse him openly, so she did it behind his back. What he didn't know wouldn't hurt him, right?
Xiao Xi Xi saw how tsundere[1] the big boss was and she bit her lower lip, feeling resentful. Why was he being difficult to her lovely mommy? However, her expression changed when she saw the gesture that her mommy made behind her back. She knew that it meant mommy was cursing the bad boss, but she knew the bad boss deserved it. Xiao Xi Xi couldn't contain her face anymore and laugh out loud.
She quickly closed her mouth and covered it with both of her hands, but still... her giggle escaped. Feng Xiao Qing grinned back at Xiao Xi Xi and mouthed a sentence to her sternly, "Don't copy me!"
Xiao Xi Xi knew her mommy did that because she was very angry, otherwise, she wouldn't curse in front of Xiao Xi Xi. Her mommy always taught her not to say bad words or she would be punished. It seemed like she would demand mommy to punish herself at home. Even though she was thinking that way, Xiao Xi Xi nodded and obeyed her mommy.
Lu Yi Feng saw the mother-daughter pair that giggled to each other and it seemed like they had forgotten his existence. He cleared his throat and it made Feng Xiao Qing and Xiao Xi Xi's attention to go back at him. They looked at him innocently and smiled. It made him quite speechless.
Feng Xiao Qing remembered Lu Yi Feng's question and answered, "This one just wants to show my utmost respect to Big Boss. If Big Boss doesn't like it, then I will change back to my usual way of talking." She grinned at Lu Yi Feng.
Lu Yi Feng, "..."
Lu Yi Feng wanted to vomit blood. 'Then why did she talk like that in the first place?!' He wanted to reprimand her, but it felt like it was hopeless to talk to her. 'Haish!' Lu Yi Feng knew that he was going to sign a contract with a lunatic, but he didn't have another choice. Usually, people were afraid of him, making them easier to control. However, he could see the stubborn streak in this woman.
She didn't get scared even after he was deliberately making it difficult for her, instead, she calmly handled him. Lu Yi Feng sighed to himself, too lazy to bother with a certain crazy woman. He tapped his desk with his fingers, while lazily looking at Feng Xiao Qing, "I already prepare the contract." He pointed at the contract on his desk and told her to get it.
Feng Xiao Qing looked at him with starry eyes, feeling excited. She went to him and tried to take the contract eagerly.
"But..."
She froze on the spot when she heard the word 'but' coming out of his mouth. 'But? But?! Why but?! Is he going to retract the contract?' Feng Xiao Qing suddenly felt afraid.
