Chapter 40 - "It would be better for you to go home and leave for Country M, tonight"

Si Corporation

Knock…Knock…

"Come in"

Lu LAN entered the office and saw that Si Li was standing near the window and was on a phone call. On seeing Si Li's handsome face, Lu LAN again forgot to take her breath and remembered the night when they kissed each other. A flashback of that night made her feel hot even in this cold weather.

When she had come in this office for the first time, she never thought that not only would she be able to earn fifty million profit for Tex Corporation but also she would become the wife of the owner of this company.

By remembering about her last three months with Si Li, she couldn't help but have a broad smile appear on her face. Si Li finished his call and saw that Lu Lan was still standing near the door and smiling "What makes you smile? Tell me so that I can also smile".

"Huh??" Lu Lan confusingly glanced at him.

"It seems that your mind is somewhere else and you don't even know that you were smiling few minutes before" Si Li looked at her like he was looking at the idiot.

After a few seconds, Lu Lan realised that she was still standing near the door and smiling 'Ah… How can I be perverted?' Lu Lan cursed herself and her face turned red because of embarrassment.

"Are you planning to stand there for the whole day?" Si Li saw that she was still standing.

"Huh?... No. No." Lu Lan immediately came forward and sat opposite him.

"This is a new proposal which I want you to handle" Si Li handover a file to her.

Lu Lan opened the file and scanned the documents in it. After a while, her expression changed and she looked up oddly towards Si Li "The project in this proposal is in the Country M and that for five years" 

Si Li saw her odd look and replied in a single word "Yes".

Hearing his answer she didn't know what to say and after a while, she calmed down and she said "How can this possible? Mr Si, I think you have given this proposal to me by mistake".

Si Li raised his brow "Mistake?"

Lu Lan immediately explained to him "Mr Si, we are a married couple. How can I go to Country M for five years?"

"Miss Lu, I think you have forgotten that our marriage is the contract marriage, which will eventually come to an end after nine months," Si Li coldly replied.

Lu Lan's expression froze, she actually forgot that their marriage was only for one year and after that, it would be over for them.

"But still we have nine months" Lu Lan really hoped that in these nine months they would be together because she really liked him and wanted to spend her life with him.

"You don't have to worry about it because we are married only on paper, not in real life. Even people don't know what about it, as far Old Man is concerned, I will explain it to him after you leave for Country M". Si Li said.

Lu Lan clenched her fist, she was very angry. How could he say that their marriage was only on paper? Didn't he have any feelings for her even once? If not, then why was he so good with her? Why had he stood for her?... Why?... Why?

Lu Lan sat helplessly. She didn't know what to do or say and how to react. Finally, she took a deep breath and said: "I… I don't want to go".

Si Li was frozen for a second, it was the first time Lu Lan rejected his opinion. His heart ached because even he didn't want her to go away from him, but he could neither keep her with him, nor want to leave her because he believed that there would be a day when he could tell her he loved her and wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. But now he had to send her to the Country M, till he made sure that she wasn't in any danger.

"Miss Lu, it seems you have forgotten that you have signed the contract and as per the contract if Si Corporation wants to send you some other country, you have to go otherwise it consider as a breach of contract," Si Li said coldly.

"But…" Lu Lan wanted to protest.

"I don't want to repeat myself. Don't try to test my patience. It would be better for you to go home and leave for Country M, tonight" Si Li interrupted her leaving no room for any further discussion.

At that time, Mu Che came inside the office and bowed to him "President, I have made all the arrangement for Miss Lu in Country M".

"Hmm," Si Li nodded and ordered him "Go with Miss Lu and make sure she will leave safely for Country M".

Then Si Li looked at Lu Lan, who was still sitting on the chair helplessly "Go with Mu Che and if you face any problem just call me".

She came back to her senses, nodding she stood up and left without a word.

Seeing her leaving without a word, Si Li was sad. After a while he calmed down and said to Mu Che "Go with her and make sure she reaches Country M safely ."

"Don't worry. President, from now on Team B has been assigned the task of Madam' s security" Mu Che respond.
