When Ming saw the secretary's behavior, she sneered inwardly. She understood what that secretary wants to imply by calling Ms Xie.
To the secretary's surprise, she didn't say anything and moved her gaze away from her. As if she didn't hear what she said.
The expression on the secretary's face' fell. She never thought that Ming would pretend not to hear anything in front of Liwei.
When Liwei heard what Zhi Shu (secretary) called Ming, his face darkened. He angrily stared at her.
Zhi Shu shivered when she saw his dark face.
Angrily looking at her, Liwei said, " Mrs. Jin."
Zhi Shu: "Ahn"
" I said, she is Mrs. Jin, not Ms. Xie. So call her Mrs Jin." Liwei said definitely.
When Liwei said this everyone heard it and they were scared by his dangerous aura. They understood that this girl is not to be taken lightly. She had made the boss under her control.
They cannot bear to disrespect her from now on.
They looked at Zhi Shu with pity. After all, being a secretary is a very respectful job because she is the one who always gets to know his schedule and she can also talk to him.
It's the first time, Liwei has scolded her like this and moreover, she likes him too. It's utter humiliation for her to be scolded like this.
...
When Liwei told her that, she once again turned towards Ming and greeted her again.
" Good Morning Mrs Jin." she greeted bowing.
When she greeted her, Ming turned to face her and nodded. She didn't even bother to greet her back. Why would she do that? She won't talk to people, whom she doesn't like.
That's the one thing which is common between Xie Ming and Zhao Ming except their names.
Liwei looked at her nonchalant behavior and his lips curled upwards. He knows if this is old Ming she would have scolded the secretary or fight with her. But she just didn't bother to look at her.
It was a very chic way to deal with these kinds of people. It's really like the Ming style.
Then he also didn't bother with his secretary and led Ming to his office room. Before Zhi Shu could say anything, he pushed the door open and entered. But he only took a few steps in office when he froze when he saw the person inside his office.
It was Xie Xinyi.
His face darkened. He got nervous at the same time. He doesn't want Ming to misunderstand him. He worriedly looked at her.
Her face was blank. She was looking at the girl in front of her with a straight face directly into her eyes. He doesn't know what she is thinking, but one thing he was sure of is that she was angry.
When Xinyi heard the door opening, she straightened her clothes and came in front of his office desk to greet him. When he entered the room, she greeted him with her best smile. But her smile froze when she saw Xie Ming with him. Her facial expressions became uglier than crying.
But soon, she regained her composure and looked at Ming and smiled at her. She thought that she was her ' Step-sister' and she doesn't need to greet her.
Even if she is the lady boss but she is also her sister.
She looked at Ming and said, " Elder sister, you're here to accompany Liwei." she said with a smile.
But immediately froze as she felt chilly gaze upon her. Liwei was looking at her with a cold face. She didn't realize but she called him ' Liwei' like she has a very close relationship with her.
Ming coldly said, " Liwei?" looking straight into her eyes. Before Liwei could say anything, Ming spoke. So he quieted down. He was ready to face her wrath. He was just looking at Xie Xinyi, like he was looking at a fool. He knows, Ming will not leave her.
Xinyi guiltily said, " Ahem I .. I mean sir. It's not my intention to call him with name but I mistakenly blurted out. It was a mistake. I am sorry sister. please don't get mad. It was a pure mistake. Please don't misunderstand."
She pretended like it was a mistake. But she deliberately called him with name to make Ming mad and embarrass herself in front of him and the whole office. Ming will shout and she will become a victim as it was only a mistake. But Ming has understood her intentions clearly.
Ming smiled at her brightly. " Oh, don't be sorry. It's not your mistake. After all, he is your brother in law, so you should be close to him. But I would prefer if you call him brother in law from now on because I am very afraid If people misunderstand your relationship with him." she paused and continued.
" It wouldn't bother him because he has a wife but people will think that you're seducing you're sister's ' husband'. It will only affect your reputation. " Ming said with a bright smile and sounds like she truly cares about Xinyi's image that's why she is advising her. Her smile is so bright that even Xinyi was also confused.
When Liwei heard her, his lips curled up. The word husband from her mouth sounds like honey. He looked at her adoringly.
Upon hearing Ming's words, Xinyi gritted her teeth in anger but tried hard to maintain a smile on her face.
Ming thought, ' hah. So you're trying to play with me. Okay. Then let's play'.
