Chapter 444 - You did what? (1) (1/2)

Mei Li put down the pen she was using and let out a sigh. Finally, she was done with the proposals. She pushed slightly to the back to give some space for her to stand up. Then, she walked to the sofa where a woman was still sleeping peacefully.

Her lips twitched seeing the sleeping beauty was so deep in her sleep, she did not even stir once even when Mei Li accidentally exclaimed loudly when she was working on the doc.u.ments. Ryn was not even aware that Mei Li was having conversations with some of the models.

”Ryn, wake up,” she shook Ryn's shoulder gently. She did not shake it too hard, so as not to shock Ryn abruptly. It was gentle and slow. ”Ryn...”

Ryn blinked her eyes sleepily. She looked at Mei Li with a yawn,

”What?” Ryn mumbled. She stretched her arms and yawned again. What time was it? Has she been sleeping too long? How long has she been here?

”What time is it?” Ryn asked. She looked around. Someone was missing, her heart whispered. But she could not remember who.

Poor Jeremy. He was actually going to his favorite cafe instead of the cafe next door to get their coffee. It would take a lot of time, he understood this perfectly, but his 'wife' deserved to get the best of the best. And to him, his favorite cafe served the best coffee to accompany her today.

He was not aware that his lovely 'wife' already forgot about him once she woke up half an hour after he sent her to  Mei Li.

”It's only about half an hour nap,” Mei Li said as she sat on the other sofa. She crossed her legs and watched Ryn rubbing her sleepy eyes and mumbling something unintelligible under her breath. Mei Li did not ask her to repeat it clearly. It must be something about Jeremy or another. Ryn seemed to be under the spell of her dream so she needed some time to truly wake up.

Ryn was like two different people. When she was working, she did not take even a second to put her mood to work mode after she woke up. However, when she was not working, she would gaze dazedly after waking up, to remember where she was and what she was supposed to do. A workaholic and a lazy person all in one body. Sometimes it made her surprised and taken aback too when she saw two different sides of Ryn but she was getting used to it.

As long as there was food, Ryn would be fine so she was not worried at all. Nothing would go wrong when Ryn's stomach was full.

”Excuse me,” Ryn said, well, more like mumbled, as she stood up and headed to the ladies' room to wash her face.

Mei Li did not say anything. She just looked up and stared at the air conditioner. She could wait. She knew what Ryn wanted to talk about. It must be about the mysterious employer who booked her for days.

But she has promised not to reveal the secret. It was supposed to be a secret and they wanted to surprise Ryn.

Of course, Mei Li did not agree with the idea at first. She did not find it a good idea to keep it a secret from Ryn. Ryn should know about this and ask about her opinion. Ryn should be aware of the project and she should be prepared. But later on, as she was the minority, she had to swallow her disagreement and obeyed them.

Hopefully, Ryn would not get mad with her.

Ryn returned and this time there was no sign of her being sleepy at all. Her ponytail was sleek, tidier than her usual messy ponytail. Her face was free from any make-up but so smooth, her cheeks looked like soft tofu. Of course, it made Mei Li jealous, knowing how laid-back Ryn was, especially regarding her skincare. She did not even have more than 3 steps in her skincare routine!

And she knew most of the time, Ryn only washed her face and that was that.

So envious!

Ryn took her seat and looked at Mei Li. She c.o.c.ked an eyebrow. No word at all came out from her lips.  She just waited.

Mei Li sighed. It was nerve-racking receiving Ryn's stare. She was using one of her faces, the ones she used during her jobs. And if Mei Li was not mistaken, Ryn was using her CEO/ big boss look right now.
