"Sir, wake up we are here!" informed Shawn. Lijun sighed as he got out of the car totally forgetting he had Lixi with him. "Boss you've forgotten... Umh..." Shawn said nudging his head towards the car as he had already gotten outside. Lijun looked at the car and the one inside was not willing to come outside. "Miss Wang are you waiting to be sermoned so that you can get out?" asked Lijun irritatedly. Shawn wasn't expecting his boss to call her like that. "Mr Jiang if we are going to make this work then I think you should start behaving like we should in public sir. Am not coming outside unless you open the door." Lixi said from the car.
Lijun had to scratch his ears for he wasn't sure if he had it right or...." What did you say?! "asked Lijun angrily as he opened the door angrily. Lixi smiled and said " See darling, is that hard to do... Thanks"
Shawn laughed but was keen to keep it in.
Lijun looked at the girl while she sashed out of the car. He banged the door hard as he closed it. One sure thing was that something or someone was going to have it. Shawn didn't want to be that someone so he kept his head down.
Lijun took in deep breaths he wasn't one to lose his cool easily, ever.
Lijun mustered that fake smile that forever looked real. "This way love"
Lixi was enjoying playing this game looks like two can play this game. Lijun taught her how to play it and right now she was enjoying it.
They walked together quietly till they arrived at the main door. Shawn had gone to get the luggage out of the car and take it inside the house.
Immediately they got near the main door the door was opened by an old butler Mr Feng. He was smiling joyfully as he looked at his master. "Boss welcome nice to.....
" Bak! Bak! Bak! " a dog suddenly came from inside the mansion barking furiously as it approached Lijun it wagged it's tail as it went round him while jumping at him." Enough girl... I know you missed me girl... "said Lijun as he carried her up. The dog licked him happily. Lixi looked at the little fury animal. She hated dogs because she was mostly afraid of them.
The dog was a Shiba Inu a Japanese hunting breed. It looked more like a fox as it had fox like ears face and legs.
Lixi was praying silently that the dog won't take notice of her. But it looked liked her prayer had backfired as it took note of a new scent. It started barking at her.... "Tamara girl, behave" reprimanded Lijun but Tamara didn't like the presence of a new female. It jumped from Lijun's hold, and landed down still barking at Lixi. Lixi backed away slowly. She was trying to keep calm as she had a myth that dogs could smell fear. When Tamara jumped at her..... She realised to hell with all the myths as she ran back to where they came from. That's what Tamara wanted cause she followed her. "Sir, Tamara is...." said Mr Feng to a Lijun who was smiling happily. He didn't know if anyone could be afraid of Tamara, but today he saw just so many things so this did not surprise him. "Sir should I...." asked Mr Feng for his master wasn't saying anything. Lijun looked as Tamara and Lixi went in circles with her screaming and Tamara barking. Tamara was helping her to get a little payback with what happened in the car and he was enjoying every minute of it. But he now didn't want to be seen like the always bad fiance here so "Mr Feng I just want them to know and get used to each other you know Tamara is only playing right?" Mr Feng convinced nodded his head in understanding.
Lixi was panting as she was tired from running around. She was afraid of dogs because they just terrified her. Her subway running came to an end when she ran towards Lijun. She ran to the owner of the dog for there the dog wouldn't hurt her. Lixi immediately ran and hid behind Lijun. "Junie please tell her to go away" said Lixi like a little child.
Lijun raised an eyebrow.... The nicknames were coming like they were rehearsed or something. Lijun looked at her and shamefully told her"Love you have to get used to Tam Tam I swear... she wouldn't bite you... Unless I tell her to and I wouldn't do that" with the last sentence Lixi was sure Lijun could tell Tam Tam or whatever they called that little devil to bite her.
Tamara seeing she wasn't being noticed jumped at Lijun and balanced herself with her front legs in order to reach Lixi. Lixi quickly jumped onto Lijun's back clinging onto him while her face was buried at the crook of his neck.
"Miss Wang, what happened to being a noble Wang?!"
"First tell that thing to go"
"Off me miss Wang you're embarrassing yourself"
"Mr Feng take Tamara in looks like the girls will take a while to get to know each other.... Love I'd love to carry you for the night but am very tired from the journey..... Darling I promise I'll carry you some other time.... Okay my brownie"
Lixi felt cringed hearing those words she immediately came down after Mr Feng took Tamara in.
"Mr Jiang, don't call me brownie... Ever...."
"And you never call me Junie.... Ever..."
They walked in slowly inside the house.... Lixi looked inside with an awe the house looked much better than she thought it would. It was fantastic to look at.
Immediately they came in, suddenly Lijun's servants came in and aligned themselves in two lines facing each other men and women separated, each in their own lines.
They slightly bowed and in unison greeted "Welcome back Master Jiang" Lixi sneered but of course on the inside. This was what was making the guy think he was king, thought Lixi to herself as she was planning in her head how she'll make the workers strike.
Lijun nodded his head as he passed between them dragging Lixi along with him.
After their master passed it's now that they went back to their normal duties.
"See everybody here treats me like a king with utmost respect what you should be doing miss Wang... Okay" whispered Lijun to Lixi. This made Lixi laugh a not so ever sincere laughter. "Am not everyone"
"Daddy, Pa,!" a little girl's excited voice shrieked from the stairs.
