69 The figure behind the door (2/2)

”Liling, Jin Yue is different. He's definitely different. ”

”Yes, he's different because you are beginning to like him”

”No!” Xin Yong immediately denied, when she realized her abruptness, she mellowed her tone and repeated.

”No, I don't like him, I just know he's different. I feel it.”

Liling remembered the email that was sent to her and she turned to ask Xin Yong

”Did you receive a message from X-dynasty?”

”Yes!, it says we have a meeting this Friday, did you get the email too? ”

”Mmm”

”That's great, we'll go together, when you're ready just text me; I'll come over and we'll go together ”

”Okay”

Liling replied, they talked about other random things and after sometime, Liling took Xin Yong to her father's ward, but they didn't enter inside, they just stood by the window and watched him from the outside.

Xin Yong didn't want to cry again, so she didn't stay for long, after bading her friend goodbye, she left the hospital.

.....

”So that's what you've been up to recently, bro, you are really bad!!, and here I was thinking I was the baddest kid in Beijing, not knowing you are a silent killer!

So the almighty Liling would be living with you in the same house, under the same roof, and I'm sure she'll be staying in the room next to yours if not in the same room!”

”Jin Yue, this is purely work, it's a deal. It's not like there is something else involved..”

Liu Wei replied feigning seriousness. His joy had known no bounds since the day Liling came by. He had left work early that day and decided to call Jin Yue over for a drink.

”Haha, like seriously? My my, this is the funniest joke I've heard on planet earth.

It's a business contract but you made her your personal maid, not even a cook or a cleaner. She could even do the dishes if you are so generous, but no, a personal maid, so she could dress your bed, prepare your bath, prepare your clothes, call you to eat... haha...”

”Jin Yue!, can't you just pretend that its just nothing for once, must you always be a jerk! ” Liu Wei snapped at him, it was obvious he was embarrassed that his ploy had been discovered.

Jin Yue laughed hysterically, he shook his head at his tricky friend.

They sat in the living room chatting away but didn't see the figure behind the door who was listening to their conversation.
