49 SHE TOOK INITIATIVE (2/2)

He smiled a little at her behaviour. When she took initiative, she could be quite brazen. However, if he responded and teased her a little, her little face would become red immediately. For some reason, he thought it was really endearing.

”Call me by my given name. Mr Zhong seems so distant in this situation, don't you think?” He leaned towards her with a charming smile.

Hu Lei's face became even redder, and she cursed herself for starting the game.

”I can't just call you Feng.” She responded in a small voice with a large serving of discomfort.

These two people who did not have any experience in the matters of the heart looked at each other with awkwardness in the air. It seemed that they wanted to advance their relationship in at least this small way and get more personal. However, there was the natural reserve of mature virgins from both sides.

Hu Lei cleared her throat because she could not bear the strange tension in the air, especially with the evil emperor looking right at her.

”How about I call you Ah-Feng when we are not at work?” She finally bowed down to the pressure and suggested in that mosquito voice.

Her delightful face seemed like it would burst into flames at any moment. Looking at her Zhong Feng felt an unquenchable thirst, and a fire seemed to rise in his body. However, he suppressed it with every ounce of willpower he could muster.

He nodded and leaned back in his seat with a smile as if nothing had happened. The sight of the unruffled man annoyed Hu Lei, making her want to bite someone. How come she was the only loser in this exchange? She could not allow it.

”What are you going to call me?” She asked with a huff, crossing her hands under her generous bosom.

Hu Lei felt that it was time to harden her skin, or she will keep losing to this shameless man. Though she knew that the question was childish, she would not back down.

”Naturally, you are Xiao Lei.” He responded smoothly before standing up and clearing the table.

Once again, her face became a ripe tomato as he spoke. Her mind drifted to the first time that he had called her Xiao Lei in an elevator. She could not help feeling that she had lost miserably in this battle. It seemed that she needed to train her skin a little more before launching another confrontation.
