Chapter 59 - "Dont Say That!" (1/2)
Yu Huiyin was unaware that everyone was discussing her in private as she was putting her full focus onto the papers in her hands.
Although she did not know Xie Jingyu's intentions, she knew that this was a brilliant chance for her to understand how to run a business.
She was wholeheartedly reading the doc.u.ments and sorting them one after the other.
She remembered how to do accounting, and sorted them into income and expenses, after which she began double-checking that the numbers were correct.
She did not have to do any of the actual accounting; the professionals had already done this. All she needed to do was sort the papers in the right order, and learn how accounting worked.
Even so, she continued to double-check everything.
It was not that she doubted the job that the accountant had done; it was just that, this was the task she had been given, so she needed to do it well.
Yu Huiyin was entirely focused on the doc.u.ments, and did not notice that Xie Jingyu would often look at her with a tender gaze as he observed her working in earnest.
After two hours, Assistant Song entered the office, feeling sorry for himself. He knew that entering now would ensure that his boss would be mad at him, but he also understood that he had no choice.
And as he had expected, he looked at Xie Jingyu, who had a black face, clearly unhappy with being interrupted.
”Sir, you have a meeting in five minutes with the committee for the newest project we are going to bid on.”
Xie Jingyu seemed to remember faintly that there was indeed such a thing, and he nodded his head. He was no longer as angry as before.
Instead, he went to Yu Huiyin, who was busy scribbling down notes while sorting the papers at an efficient and swift pace.
He reached out his hand and gently caressed her face, causing Yu Huiyin to jump in shock and pull back. Her eyes widened as she looked at Xie Jingyu, only to see the affectionate gaze he used to look at her, once again draining all the energy from her, and making her feel as if she was floating on cloud nine.
When she heard Xie Jingyu's low and husky chuckle, she finally realized that she had lost herself in his eyes, and she lowered her head, feeling it flushing red in embarrassment.
Seeing her embarrassed look, Xie Jingyu shook his head in amus.e.m.e.nt. She was so bold before, why was she suddenly meek like a kitten now?
