BWEEP! BWEEP! BWEEP!
A loud siren followed by a flurry of footsteps echoed as an employee rushed inside a magnificent office building. Face flushed in anxiety, he screamed on top of his voice!
HITLER REPORTING! HITLER REPORTING!
THUMP!!!
Whaatt!!! NOO!!!
One female employee, fixing her makeup, almost ate her own lipstick in a hurry, followed by another male employee, who tripped! The files in his hands dropped down… papers flying everywhere!
What the hell! Hitler is coming?! But… he was at side-branch these days, no? Why would he come before finishing the project? Argh! We were so happy… sigh! Seems like our good days are finished! Get ready, everyone, to be burned in his angry roars!
At last, a burly employee got his wits back and warned everyone, who looked as though experiencing the end of the world!
In the meantime, a handsome young man in his early twenties with a nerdy look came down through the lift from the top floor! Seeing everyone flustered as though kindergartners seeing their headmaster, he got angry.
"What nonsense, dammit! Are you all getting paid for gossiping behind the boss' back?! Get back to work, everyone! I need all the respective project reports onto the Secretarial deck within 10 minutes! If not, before Sir could even punish you, I will fire you all!"
His word worked like cold water making the employees rush like chickens!
Satisfied with the result, he let out a wicked laugh and rushed to greet his BIG BOSS, Yan CheungWei.
Now speaking of him, he is Si Qing, one of the two head secretaries cum PA, working under Yan CheungWei, the MD of Yan Holdings! As soon he graduated, he joined YH. Instead of terming as secretary, he could be considered as CheungWei's friend and confidant! Since kindergarten, both he and CheungWei studied together, developing a trustworthy friendship. In difficult times, CheuyngWei was the one who came to give respite to an orphan like him! Thus, he signed himself to become Yan CheungWei's right hand! He is used to CheungWei's outwardly harsh and inwardly soft behavior. Furthersome, knew about each and every significant happening of Yan CheungWei's life… including about Li fenhua, who is CheungWei's everything!
"Good Morning, Wei Zong(Boss)! Welcome, I have prepared all the documents you wanted!"
At Si Qing's greeting, Yan CheungWei raised his sharp eyes and nodded! Then, they both headed towards the top 50th floor where CheungWei's personal office was located. A soon as they reached the door, CheungWei came to a stop!
"Ah! Si Qing...what about Fenhua's internship?"
"Don't worry, Wei Zong! I have made all the necessary arrangements!" At CheungWei's query, Si Qing assured with a smile.
"Good! Ah…also, send Ria to my cabin!"
"Sure!"
******
A young girl around the same age as Si Qing knocked at Yan CheungWei's cabin! Upon getting permission, she entered with a professional smile and greeted him!
Her name is Ria Wang… same age as Si Qing! Despite joining after him, she got promoted to head secretary due to her exceptional management skills! Without a single black mark in the work history, she performs her duty to the T! Though being in the same position as Si Qing,
"Good Morning, Wei Zong! It's good to have you back! Would you like some coffee?"
The answer to Ria's enthusiastic greet was a short nod from Yan CheungWei! Unbothered by his response, Ria continued…
"Heard that the project with An Constructions at the city center was a success! Congratulations, Wei Zong!"
"Mmm!" came an unenthusiastic reply from CheungWei, who was still lost in thinking about his flower's gift!
Ria was disheartened as she looked at this most dashing male, who is the dream guy of every girl! And, just like those girls, she too lost her heart to this cold man! When… or why, she doesn't know… Maybe when she first looked at him during the interview…? In a white shirt, he faced her like an ice god without any ripples… he made her anxious heart calmed down with that time! Or maybe, when he provided her financial support to cure her ailing father,… despite not having any work experience?! Unknowingly, it's been two years passed by with her loving him while assisting in the office! Her oval-shaped face and gorgeous figure caused an 'n' number of prospects lining at her doorstep! But her traitor heart was set on Yan CheungWei! Her day always started and ended with him!
As Ria stood lost in her musings, Yan CheungWei called out.
"Ria! Umm… I head there's an antique auction going on! Is that right?"
Ria almost smiled in happiness as she answered, "Yes, Wei Zong! It's mainly an auction of accessory antiques!"
*Yes!* This is what he wanted! CheungWei gave a look to Ria, urging her to continue.
" Wei Zong,… Yan Holdings long back received an invitation for this auction! But, as you were at the side branch, there was a delay in informing you! Let me bring it to you."
With that Ria brought the invitation and handed it to CheungWei.
"Wei Zong! One more thing… There is a special antique that will be auctioned! The auction management mentioned that the Ming Dynasty ancient Phoenix Bracelet is being displayed!"
"Phoenix Bracelet?!"
"Yes, it's known to be the most powerful…"

To be continued!
