Chapter 40 - Cant afford a dress from this high-end shop. (1/2)
Lifen asked Deming excitedly, ”Yesterday you have mentioned that we will be attending a meeting today. But I haven't got any information about it. What's my role there?”
Looking at her excitement which she was trying to hide deliberately, Deming was amused. He gently knocked her forehead, ”You are the most important role”.
”Important role? What?”, Lifen was confused a little. Didn't he said yesterday that it is an important meeting? How can she have an important role there, even when she doesn't have any information about it?
”You have to be my lady partner there. It's a banquet meeting”, he said plainly.
”What? Am I not your personal assistant then how come I have go be your lady partner there? I am not going. You can ask any other employee”, Lifen pouted.
”You are not getting a choice. You have to go. Why I have to always remind you about about the contract, you have to do what I say. Follow me we are already late”, Deming put his hands in his pocket and started walking.
”You...”, she pursed her lips tight and reluctantly followed him.
Murphy was waiting outside. As he saw them coming, he simply asked Deming, ”Sir the banquet will be starting at 1pm, where are we heading now?”.
He plainly looked at Murphy and gave him an irritated look, ”First we will head for a little shopping, then prepare best stylist for the lady and finally we will head to the banquet. Should I have to repeat this again Murphy?”
Murphy was struck in his gaze. He simply said, ”Sorry Boss, I will remember it”.
Soon the car stopped out an exquisite shop. ”Why are we here?”, Lifen turned to ask Deming.
”Oh I guess I made a wrong decision. You are so dumb, I shouldn't appointed for such a job. We are here to shop. Are you planning to go there like this? tsk tsk so dumb”, Deming sneered.
”You... What's wrong with my dressing sense? It was you who told me that's it's a normal meeting, you haven't mentioned about the banquet meeting. How I would have known this?”, Lifen was feeling a little embarrassed. There was nothing wrong in her dressing today, it was just that she was dressed for a formal meeting whereas in banquet meeting there is having a little fancy dressing.
Deming's lips curled up, seeing her complaining, ”Stop arguing and let's go or we would be late”. He stepped out and pulled her inside the shop.
