194 Its time (1/2)

'' Why didn't you tell me when it happened the first time? ''

Liu Wei asked in a very worried tone. To think that something like this was happening when he was not with her. He brushed his hand through his hair exasperatedly.

''I'm sorry, it won't happen again. I did not think much of it when I saw the first text, I'm so sorry.''

Liling pleaded, her tone was very soft such that Liu Wei started blaming himself for making her sad. Calming himself, he lowered his voice and asked;

''Where are you now?''

''I just left the manager's office, I'm waiting for Xin Yong in the lobby, she'll be out soon. Oh! Here she comes...''

Liling replied as she spotted Xin Yong walking towards her. She stood up from the long seat and picked up her hand bag from beside her.

''I want you to go home immediately and nowhere else, okay? Anything you need, just tell the house workers in charge to get it for you. Please don't go anywhere else, okay?''

Liu Wei pleaded over the phone. He really began to panic that something would happen to her while he was not around.

''Okay, I'll go home immediately.''

She replied, assuredly. It was obvious he was already worried about her, it was best she did anything he wanted her to do.

''Be safe for me okay?''

''Okay, I love you.''

''Hmm hmm'' Xin Yong interrupted as soon as she heard the L word. Liling turned to glare at her before disconnecting the call.

''Missing someone?'' she raised her lips to a grin as she entangled her arms with her friend's.

Liling forced a smile and put her phone into her bag as they walked out of the company.

''Did you meet your manager today? Who is it?''

She asked inquisitively. Xin Yong rolled her eyes and nodded her head.

''He's male, in his mid-forties. I couldn't get all that he said since he kept talking about his successes in the music industry and how lucky I was to have him.''

They both burst out laughing.

''Anyways, who's yours?''

Liling cleared her throat and shook her head.

''I thought I had seen strict people, but today proved me wrong. Xin Yong, my manager is very strict and fearful. I watched every word that came out of my mouth since I did not know what would annoy her.

Can you imagine that she told me to compose ten songs before Friday? Who does that? Ten!''

Xin Yong chuckled at her friend's worried expression. ''So what's her name? ''

”I don't know, didn't have the guts to ask her. Her facial expression is not engaging at all.''

''Don't you think she's Miss Su? I don't think any other person matches your description so perfectly. Wait, let me check…''

Xin Yong remarked, she quickly took out her phone from her bag and searched her up on the internet. When she saw a clear picture of her, she immediately showed it to Liling.

Liling's eyes widened immediately, she took the phone from Xin Yong and stared at the picture for a while.

''Yes, except that she appears nicer in this picture.''

''Oh my! Liling, your manager is Miss Su. Oh my God, Liling you're so lucky! You need to work very hard in order to please her, really hard! I heard that she does not smile is it true?''

Liling sighed and nodded.

''She doesn't smile at all, the best you can see is a dry half smile, that does not even count because the next minute she's barking at you again.''

''You're so lucky Liling! Now, you have to buckle up else she would skin the living life out of you.''
