Chapter 216 - Imagination and real life is not the same (1/2)

Kong Xianwang didn't stay at Mai Yuerui's house that long. After taking a small nap he got out from bed, took out a blanket and covered Mai Yuerui properly.

Then he went to her kitchen and made chicken porridge for his wife.

He poured the porridge in a thermoflask and placed it at the centre of her kitchen counter so that Mai Yuerui gets the see this when she wakes up. He didn't forget to leave a note for her.

Before leaving he again sneaked a peak at his wife and kissed her forehead lightly.

--------

The next day, Mai Yuerui woke up with the sound of her alarm. She was so tired that she slept the whole night and didn't even woke up for dinner.

After turning off the alarm she stretched her arms and gave out a loud yawn.....

She scratched her head while looking around and realized that she is in her apartment.

”When did I come home? I remember taking a nap in Xianwang's car.” She said as she rubbed her eyes.

”Oh!” Mai Yuerui covered her mouth with both her hands when she realized that Kong Xianwang might have carried her to her apartment.

”Mai Yuerui, you idiot! Why did you slept in his car? Did he carry me all the way here? Ah....” She disheveled her hair out of frustration.

Then her eyes fell on the thermoflask. Her apartment is a one room apartment so she can see her kitchen from her bed.

She got off from bed and went to kitchen.

After opening the lid the aroma of chicken porridge tingled her nose.

”Smells good. I guess he won't have any problem if I don't cook for him.” She said to herself.

As she was pouring some porridge for herself her eyes fell on the note left by her husband.

She picked up the note and read the content out loud.

”Do not devour the whole in just one meal. Eat some green vegetables too. You should go on a strict diet. You are quite heavy, you know.”

Mai Yuerui crumbled the paper in a second and made a pouted face.

”If I am heavy, then who told you to carry me? You could have just wake me up, Jerk.” She started to yell at her husband in her imagination.

Ting....

The notification sound of her phone moved her attention.

It was a message from Lin Zongguan.

It said that she needs to be with him today when Kong Xianwang arrives as she needs to submit her yesterday's report to Xianwang herself. So she should come early today.

After reading the message her face turned into a hopeless child as she dumped herself on the floor.

”God knows, what that jerk has in store for me today.”

She let out a sigh.

”No matter what happens, I will not let him bully me.” Mai Yuerui turned her palm into a fist as she motivated herself.

----------

Since she needs to report to the CEO, Mai Yuerui decided to wear a black colored jumpsuit with a black coat on the top.

After arriving early the first thing she did was to go and meet Lin Zongguan.

”Mr. Lin, Do I have to carry all these to the main building?” Mai Yuerui asked sheepishly.

There were at least 20 large box files. And by the thought of carrying them all the way to the main office made Mai Yuerui sweat.

”No. You also did a summary, right?”

Mai Yuerui nodded in reply.

”Just take them with you.”

Mai Yuerui gave out a smile and started to pick the files.

When she was busy in looking for the summary files, suddenly Lin Zongguan came close to her and whispered slowly, ”Mai Yuerui, did you, by any chance made CEO Kong disappointed?”

Mai Yuerui became dumbfounded by his sudden question.

”No, Mr. Lin.” She shook her head.

”Then why is he...” Lin Zongguan paused and suddenly changed the topic.

”You come out with me after taking the file.”

Lin Zongguan has noticed that Kong Xianwang has been playing tricks on her from the day she joined. He couldn't help wonder if she has made him angry or something in some way and also felt pity for the innocent child.

------------

Like everytime all the department heads are lined up in front of the main building to greet the CEO. Today Mai Yuerui also joined them.

It was not her first time in this awkward situation. So Mai Yuerui didn't feel awkward at their weird stares. She just stood there with a poker face expression while holding a number of box files.

'Why are you people staring at me? Put yourself in my position. An innocent little girl has to stand under the sun with this pile of files only to wait for your jerk of a CEO. Then you will understand my pain.' Mai Yuerui started to act like a victim in her mind.
