Han Zhou frowned. But he was standing too close to her. Looking around, he grimaced. With an annoying look on his face. He pulled her and helped her on the sofa.
"You should rest here, I will ask someone to help you." with that, he returned to his seat. He dialed a number and soon a cleaner entered the office.
She neatly picked up all the files and arranged them on Han Zhou's table. Then she returned with an ointment.
"Let me help you, miss Su." the girl kneeled on the ground to apply the ointment. Su Yan raised her head and stared at Han Zhou with an aggrieved look. But when he still did not react, she bit her lips and snatched the ointment from the cleaner.
"It is alright. You are already busy with your work. I do not want to burden you. The swelling is in feet, not in hands so I can not apply it myself." without waiting for a reppy. She took out her heels and applied the ointment. The cleaner could only nod and leave.
Su Yan pulled her skirt further as she applied the medicine while her eyes stealthily looked at Han Zhou.
"Mr Han, about the new hotel we have acquired from Mr Tang. i think we should change the higher ups. They are too loyal to their old boss and did not give me any face when I went to complete the paperwork. What if they intentionally create trouble for us in the future?" her voice was completely professional as she said so.
Han turned to look at her and she pulled the dress highter and rubbed her thumb on her calf. Her actions were too seductive. Any man would have been entranced by her beauty. Her proclined skin and her soft hands. The actions would have made any man gulp. But Han Zhou's eyes did not move away from her face.
He looked at her with an indifferent look.
"It is natural to have friction in the start. But we should not fire all the senior staff because of some misunderstanding. What if other staff felt insecure and went against us too. But if a particular person find trouble, you are free to look for his file. I am sure you will find enough dirt on them to fire them for genuine reasons." With that, he started working on the file again. Her hands had already pulled the dress to her upper calf. A few inch more, and her undergarments could be seen.
Her face looked ugly when he did not even give a look to her. Adjusting her clothes as if nothing had happened, she pressed her feet.
"Then I will create a list of their names and bring it to you later. Would I be coming for dinner there? At least check the work environment and their quality of dishes once." her voice looked aggrieved as if she was burdened with too much work.
"Alright, book a dinner table there. But do not inform them about our presence. We will go there as guests." Finally her lips curled with joy. She smiled brightly and noted it on her mobile.
"Sure, what about lunch? I have found a new restaurant. Shall I order your lunch from there?" he nodded with an indifferent smile but it did not matter to her.
She hastily left the room slightly limping and dialed a number.
"Lei Mei!" her voice was full of sweetness, "i heard that you have been so busy with your work that you are barely able to have dinner with Zhou! That is not a good thing, you know. As a newly wed couple, you should spend more time with each other." she chided softly like a caring big sister.
"Hmm, what are you talking about?" She frowned when she heard the reply. Shouldn't Lei mei already defend herself?
"What else am I talking about? Zhou asked me for dinner. When I declined politely, I told him he is married now. And he should go to dinner with you, he frowned and rejected. He said you are too busy for that, and insisted that I should go with him." her lips curled into a sneer. She could already imagine the pale face of Lei Mei and tears filling her eyes.
"I could have only accepted since he is my boss. But I still felt it was wrong. You should take out more time for him. After all, you are his wife. What if others started to gossip about us?" she chided softly, but her voice was full of joy.
"Hm,, alright. If there is nothing else, I have something to do." but the reply made her stunned. Su Yan was waiting for Lei Mei to throw a fit.
Not only on the phone, but she was waitin for Lei Mei to come here personally and create a scene. Only then she could reach her goal. But what happened? Why was she not jealous?"
"You know, he had bought the Erique Hotel near Maiden street. You like that one, right? How about you call him and convince him to take you. Maybe.."
"... toot toot!" Su Yan stared at her mobile in disbelief. "She.. she hung up on me?" her eyes wide and her lips parted. That was not how she had imagined it to go.
Lei Mei must have thrown the fit or she would not be able to achieve more from this!
"Ha! She must be acting nonchalant since she wanted to hold on to her pride. But I will see how long she can control herself!" Su Yan gritted her teeth.
But if Lei Mei was not ready to throw the fit, then Han Zhou must react.
She went to her desk and took out a pendrive. She knocked on Han Zhou's office again.
"Mr Han, are you busy?" When she did not receive a reply, she attached the pendrive to her mobile and opened a folder. "Even if you are, you must see these pictures. It is an urgent matter."
"...."
