46 Be Good (1/2)

A few days passed where Zhi Ruo was buried in work during the day and buried in embarrassment during the night as Wang Yong gave her a long hug each night.

Once she tried to ask him the reason why and he just smiled mysteriously before rubbing her head and walking away.

' This big boss is so confusing!!! Where did the little cutie angel go?! ' Zhi Ruo complained in her mind but for some reason, she couldn't tell him to stop.

...

Just like any normal day, Zhi Ruo walked into the office and sat down at her desk. Lin Xia informed her of her packed schedule.

\” The landowner said that they were free next week so you could visit the land. \” Lin Xia told.

\” Hmm, free some time in my schedule then. \” Zhi Ruo answered.

\” If I did that the trip to the US will be pushed back again. \” Lin Xia commented.

\” The trip to the US...? \” Zhi Ruo pondered for a second.

\” Oh...to visit Miss Xu's laboratory? \” Zhi Ruo remembered the lady she met during a party. *reference to chapter 27

\” Exactly. During the trip, we also have a lot of planned meetings, parties and conferences. I am afraid we can't move all of this. \” Lin Xia anxiously said.

Zhi Ruo got another headache. These days she has been working almost all day and even on the weekends she would do her best to finish her pile of work before receiving more the next Monday.

Unfortunately, she wasn't as talented as the old Zhi Ruo and was scared of making mistakes so she needed to be quite focused and had to do a lot of research to confirm that her choices were right.

Zhi Ruo lightly massaged her temples and sighed, \” I was supposed to go visit the children this Sunday right? \”

\” Yeah. \” Lin Xia nodded.

\” Call the orphanage and tell them that I can't make it. Afterwards, call the landowner again and try to negotiate for this Sunday. Don't forget to send compensation and apologize to the orphanage. \” Zhi Ruo instructed.

\” Yes, I will do the changes accordingly. \” Lin Xia agreed.

\” Nothing else? \” Zhi Ruo started writing again.

\” Hum, you informed a few days ago that it was almost your cousin's birthday and you had to attend. However, it is on the night of your flight, will you still attend? \”

\” My cousin's birthday...sigh...I promised my mom I would go... \” Zhi Ruo frowned.

\” Yeah, I will attend, I'll just leave earlier. \” Zhi Ruo replied.

\” Okay. That is all if there is nothing else I will go back to work. \” Lin Xia bowed and was ready to leave but Zhi Ruo stopped her.

\” Lin Xia, buy me easy to eat snacks, I won't be able to eat lunch today either. You can eat alone, I will try to finish everything today. \” Zhi Ruo informed.

\” Understood. \” Lin Xia answered before leaving.

Zhi Ruo sighed and leaned back on her chair, ' I can't even visit the orphanage anymore... '

She inhaled and exhaled a few times before getting back to work.

...

As Li Wei was going through his documents, his assistant, Gu Haoyang, knocked on the door.

\” Come in. \” Li Wei calmly said.

\” President, the orphanage just called us and informed us that Miss Zhi won't be able to make it this week. \” Gu Haoyang apprised.

\” What happened? \” Li Wei raised his head and asked.

\” The orphanage said that Miss Zhi's assistant stated that she was too busy this week and that she would try to go next month. \” Gu Haoyang answered.
