Chapter 5 - What Requests?? (edited) (1/2)

On the other side, Xiu Mei's sleep flew out of the window.

She went to the balcony for some fresh air and brewed a cup of chrysanthemum tea for herself. Holding it between her hands she settled down on the bamboo swing hanging from the ceiling.

She sniffed her tea before taking a sip, the aroma calms down her nerves to think about the situation through and through.

But she was unable to understand why Mr. Feng was so hell-bent on sending his son to her villa? Being the wealthiest man in this world he can build an advanced rehabilitation center just for his son's recuperation. Then why her?

AHHHHH... Her face scrunched in frustration...

”Anyways.....Whatever his reasons are why should I care! I better pay attention to the important issue here….someone is trying to intrude into my privacy”

”If I say no- my credibility is questioned. If you say yes- Then I'm digging my own grave. So, this is how it feels to be stuck between rock and hard place”

She pondered about the situation for a long time, measuring the situation from every possible angle as this would be the first time she was allowing someone to enter her villa except her best friend Fei Hong.

”Hong? Oh yes, how I can forget, I should discuss this matter with her. Phone? Where is my phone?” Xiu Mei placed the teacup on the side table and was about to call her best friend when she recalled Feng Dingxiong's last words to keep the conversation to herself.

She rolled her eyes and fell into deep thought. She was living a secret life for many years and has decided to not disclose her identity until her mission is complete.

There are very few people who know her real identity.

But what can be done, she owes favor and this was not a big demand from Feng Dingxiong. And of course, accommodating a sick person inside her villa won't be that difficult.

However, she was oblivious to the fact that she was going to regret her decision.

Lost in thoughts, slowly her body takes her to a deep slumber.

She woke up early in the morning when the sun rays directly hit her face making her eyes feel irritated. Lightly rubbing her eyes she opened them slowly but felt confused seeing the unfamiliar environment around her.

'Huh? Where am I? ' Xiu Mei thought inwardly.

Upon realizing that she had slept the whole night in the balcony she hit her head playfully and went to the bathroom to freshen up.

Instantly she dialed Feng Dingxiong's number.

At Feng Manor:

At this time Feng Dingxiong was sitting in the garden reading newspaper. His wife was preparing tea sitting beside him.

”Here! Your tea! Careful it's hot,” Liu Ning said turning towards her husband, handing him a cup of tea.

”RING”

Before Feng Dingxiong could hold the teacup his phone rang.
