Han Qingwu’s smiling face got thicker upon hearing Chi Nan and was about to humbly reply when she suddenly froze. Even her pace to the stairs came to halt.
“You… what did you just say, Manager Chi?”
“I said I’m too old! Is there a problem?” Replied Chi Nan with a smile.
“You just said that you’d definitely be able to take your Boss’ heart from me,” Han Qingwu shook her head and said.
“That’s of course.” Chi Nan chuckled.
With slightly furrowed brows, Han Qingwu forced a smile and said, “Manager Chi, I think you’re mistaken about that. Tang Xiu’s heart has never been mine, and he has a girlfriend already. It’s the first Campus Flower of Shanghai University, Mu Wanying. Please don’t joke again later.”
“Teacher Han, I’ve seen Ms. Mu and she’s indeed a rare beauty. I will certainly like such a stunning belle if I were a man. However, I don’t think her place inside my Boss’ heart is that significant. Also, I’m rather curious as to how she could become my Boss’ girlfriend.”
Despite being reluctant to continue talking about this topic, Han Qingwu’s heart moved slightly upon hearing Chi Nan’s words. “I don’t quite understand what you mean, Manager Chi!”
Chi Nan shot Han Qingwu a meaningful look, as she smiled and said, “Since you’re not an outsider, then I’ll tell you what I have seen and have in mind, Teacher Han. I’ve seen my Boss bring many women here, each of whom is very beautiful and outstanding, such as Ouyang Lulu, the superstar Zhang Xinya, and the Magnificent Tang Corporation’s General Manager Kang Xia… Yet, I can feel that my Boss doesn’t like them, and he… even seems to deliberately keep a distance from them.
“Perhaps you don’t know, but I was surprised to find that my Boss has always been very calm whenever he’s facing them. Regardless of whatever the issue is regarding them, he seems to treat it as an ordinary matter or something like that. But there’s only one person who can make my Boss act different.”
As she spoke up to there, Chi Nan stopped talking.
Han Qingwu asked Chi Nan with a blank expression, “Who is it?”
“It’s you!” Said Chi Nan with a serious expression.
“Me?” Asked Han Qingwu in disbelief. “But why me?”
“Don’t tell me you haven’t realized it yet?” Asked Chi Nan. “My Boss sometimes treats you well, and he looks at you in a daze for a few seconds in some occasions, while he’s also very indifferent toward you some other times, like he’s trying to deny you. Those changes in his mood or emotional changes are all because of something that you brought to him, I think.”
Stupefied, though Han Qingwu stared at Chi Nan, her mind was actually replaying all the scenes of what she had been through with Tang Xiu all this while. She realized that Chi Nan was right. Tang Xiu had indeed stared at her in a daze a few times. Sometimes, there was a hint of gentleness in his eyes, and there was also some occasions that he was indifferent to her, with a cold and detached feeling within.
Furthermore, there were also pain and grief in his eyes sometimes, as well as hatred and animosity.
_This… why was that?_
Patting Han Qingwu’s shoulder, Chi Nan smiled and said, “Teacher Han, although I don’t know what happened between you and my Boss, you’re the only woman who can make him emotionally unstable. So I’m congratulating you. If you can seize this opportunity well, then you will perhaps become our Lady Boss in the future.”
“I…” Han Qingwu’s mouth opened as she wanted to explain, yet she found that Chi Nan didn’t give her a chance to speak again and went straight upstairs. Chi Nan’s elaborate remark, however, sent a stream of joyous mood to her heart. Chi Nan’s comment about her becoming her Lady Boss was especially sweet.
Quickly after, Han Qingwu came to the third floor under Chi Nan’s guidance. When she entered the deluxe room, she took a look at the luxurious and extravagant private dining box, and only after seeing Tang Xiu did her expression turned somewhat unnatural.
“Boss, Teacher Han has arrived,” reported Chi Nan with a smile.
Tang Xiu got up. Despite feeling somewhat helpless inside, he squeezed out a smile and showed an amiable, friendly manner, “Teacher Han, I’ve ordered some good dishes, and have prepared a good red wine as well. Well, since I invited you to a feast today, then I’ll become a good host and entertain you well.”
Having said that, Tang Xiu pulled the opposite chair and motioned for Han Qingwu to sit there.
Han Qingwu, however, turned her head slowly. She found that Chi Nan had already withdrawn and closed the door from the outside, and looked hesitant before she sat on the chair.
Tang Xiu returned to his seat and then said with a smile, “Teacher Han, you seem pale. What happened?”
