Chereads / Forever His Mistress / Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Young master Qin

Qin Yan was sitted at his chair in the CEO office of Qin corporation deep in thought.His expansive office, atop the Qin Corporation headquarters, was a testament to his visionary leadership, every furniture was in dark colors giving off a gloomy vibe. Floor-to-ceiling windows offered a breathtaking panorama of the city, while polished mahogany shelves lined the walls, bearing tomes on business, documents and books. Contemporary art pieces and sculptures added a touch of sophistication. The soft, rich carpet underfoot whispered luxury, while the gleaming glass shelf showcasing his awards and accolades seemed to hum with quiet confidence. 

Qin Yan was still sitted on his sit when his assistant, Ruan Ye knocked and came in. Young master this is the thing you asked me to investigate, he said handing a brown envelope to Qin Yan.

Qin Yan took the envelope from him and dismissed him, you may go now, he said.

Ruan Ye left the office wondering why the young master suddenly told him to investigate a woman very late last night, will they finally be having a young mistress soon? Ruan Ye thought to himself.

Qin Yan opened the envelope and saw stacks of pictures, all belonging to Tang xi, from her childhood till then. He chuckled at a picture of her childhood where she was stained in mud and was in tears. He picked up the information sheet and read up everything about Tang xi, her family,her age,job, likes and dislikes, her hobbies and even the company she keeps. Under her relationship status,he got to know that she has never been in a relationship before and was delighted about that. It was rare for him to see someone who piques his interest especially women but Tang xi has done that and he has decided to set his mind on her. He was going to show her that he was a real man, if not the realest of them all.

Ruan Ye came in again to remind him of an impending meeting that he had scheduled.

Qin Yan packed the pictures and documents into the envelope, storing it safely in his office safe before leaving the office for the meeting.

Tang xi did not go back to the Tang house, she passed the night at Weiwei 's place though she sent a message home to inform them of her whereabout. Waking up groggily,

she picked up her phone by the bedside checking the time, she saw that it was already 8:00 AM , oh my goodness! Am late for work , Tang Xi screamed springing up from the bed, she rushed to the bathroom to take a shower, leaving the still sleeping Weiwei . Tang Xi's office opens by 9:00 AM and she has only an hour to get ready and get to the office,she came out of the bathroom wearing her clothes as fast as she could. She took her phone and bag bidding Weiwei who was still half awake good bye.

Tang Xi got out of the house and found a taxi immediately to her surprise,as it was difficult to get a taxi in that area. Go to SJ, Tang Xi told the driver, SJ was an acronym for Star Jewelry,it was a subsidy of Tang group, they specialized in jewelry design and production, it is one of the best jewelry brand in M city. Tang Xi worked there as an assistant designer as she had studied jewelry design in school.

The taxi got to SJ in no time and Tang Xi paid the fare, rushing in towards the elevator to get to her office before the time as her superior was a very strict and troublesome woman.

Tang Xi ran into a figure knocking down the documents she was carrying. Am so sorry, she apologized bending down to pick the documents which was scattered all over the floor without even seeing who she ran into. 

Tang Xi, are you blind so early in the morning? Qiao Jia asked. Tang Xi looked up and saw that it was Qiao Jia, her cousin and her stepsister's assistant, what a badluck, she muttered to herself. 

Tang Xi has never been in good terms with this Qiao Jia as she always got on her nerves and made things difficult for her .

This are important design draft for the company project, can you take responsibility if anything happened to them? Qiao Jia asked haughtly.

Am sorry for running into you, I was rushing to get to my office as I am already late, Tang Xi explained.

You were rushing to get to the office, why are you late today? Who knows what immoral thing you did last night that you forgot that you had work today, Qiao Jia said loud enough for everyone in the lobby to hear her.

They looked at Tang Xi strangely.

Tang Xi knew she did something last night which caused her lateness but it was just having a drink with her best friend, there was nothing immoral about it.

I have already apologized and helped pick up the documents, here it is but if you still want to talk nonsense, I don't mind entertaining you, Tang Xi said moving closer to Qiao Jia. She had taught her a lesson few times in the past and the latter knew best not to mess with her.

Youuuu... we are at the company, just pray that nothing happens to this documents, Qiao Jia said fearfully fleeing.

What a bad luck so early in the morning, Tang Xi said, she checked her time and it was already half past nine, she was already late even though she had gotten to the company on time, she has wasted time bantering words with Qiao Jia. She got into the elevator leading to her office.

Tang Xi arrived at her office and attempted to sneak into her seat but there came a sharp voice halting Tang Xi's movement .

"You are late"
