Chapter 112 - Petty Person (1/2)
”So what are we going to do, Ma'am?” Zou Ci tilted his head, looked at Ling Yue.
Ling Yue, who was looking for a comfortable sitting position, looked up. After Xi Jian left to work, they were both occupy the TV room. To be honest, Ling Yue wanted to go home but based on her condition, she would only embarrass herself if she met her brothers or servants there. ”Let's just watch TV.” Ling Yue said resignedly.
Zou Ci only nodded and sat in a safe distance with Ling Yue. ”Ma'am, may I ask something?”
Ling Yue turned her head. ”Before that, could you stop calling me ma'am? That gives me a very old impression.”
”What should I call you then?” Zou Ci raised his eyebrows.
”Just Ling Yue is fine.”
Zou Ci chuckled. ”I can't do that. Boss gonna grill me alive.”
Zou Ci didn't imagine what would happen if he called Ling Yue like a friend. She was their Lady boss and their boss was a petty person. Previously, he glared at him just because he wanted to shake her hand and afterwards, Xi Jian gave him a pair of gloves. What the heck is that?
”Let's keep it with My Lady or Ma'am.”
”That doesn't matter, though.” Ling Yue whispered to herself.
Zou Ci pretended not to hear and continued his question. He was answered by a small nod from Ling Yue. This was a serious problem for Zou Ci which would determines his attitude towards her.
”Actually, ever since you first made contact with my boss, I've always been watching you—”
”In other words, you told me that you have always been around Brother Jian all this time?” Ling Yue looked at him curiously. ”But I never saw you except at the hospital that time.” Ling Yue recalled the first time they met, ”Ah, you know my brother too, right?”
Zou Ci pursed his lips. ”Can you hear me talk till the end?” He said, slightly annoyed. ”You're just like your brother, cutting off as you please.”
Ling Yue winced. ”Sorry ... please continue.”
Zou Ci looked into her eyes sharply. ”Do you really love my boss?” Zou Ci's sudden question caught her off.
”Why do you ask that?” Ling Yue glared back.
”I know because of you, he turned into a heartless person back then.” Zou Ci observed every small change Ling Yue had made. ”The young playboy suddenly turned into a scary monk and now that monk has become a prince charming again because of you. If ...you don't really love him and just want to play with him, I suggest you, miss, you better run now before I chop your head off.”
Ling Yue could feel the threat was not just an empty threat. This man was deadly serious.
”So...if I just play with him you will kill me?”
