Chapter 55
Chapter 55 – Car Accident
Li Yan sent a pitiful gaze towards Han Meimei . She responded with a helpless look .
Sniffing, Li Yan followed Tang Qiang into his office . She never thought that after graduation, she would still have an opportunity to be called into a office for a one-on-one conference .
Seated in his respective seat behind the desk at front, Tang Qiang gestured at the other seat across, looking at Li Yan: “Why don’t you have a seat . ”
Li Yan took a seat in a stiff manner . Tang Qiang eyed at her, asking: “Do you know who was the person from earlier?”
Li Yan shook her head, quietly saying: “No, not really…”
“He is called Luo Tiancheng, one of Kaihuang’s directors . He is also a well-known broker . ”
“… Oh . ”
“And earlier you were prepared to bash him in with a water jug . ”
“… I just found him a bit dislikable . ”
Tang Qiang nodded his head, saying: “This I agree, he is indeed quite dislikable . ”
Li Yan: “…”
“But other than being dislikable, he’s also a pervert . If you ever see him in the future, it would be best to take a detour . ”
“… Ok . ” Although you guys are competitors, there’s no need to further insult him!? This is simply a cutthroat competition![1]
“How are you and Mo Zhen getting along?” Finished speaking about Luo Tiancheng, Tang Qiang switched topics, asking Li Yan about her working conditions .
“Quite, quite fine . ” Not knowing why, Li Yan felt a bit of guilt .
“That’s good then . Mo Zhen finds your work performance quite satisfactory . He even told me to shorten your internship to a month . Keep it up . ”
Li Yan stared blankly . Did he actually tell Tang Qiang such things? He… didn’t say anything about having a monthly salary of ten thousand?[2]
She suddenly felt a bit ashamed .
“Right, now that you are Mo Zhen’s assistant, whenever he orders anything from now on should be sent to your place . What’s your current address?”
“Kenny Manor, Huayuan Phase 3 No . 9 . ”[3]
Tang Qiang: “…”
Why did he feel that this address sounded so familiar…
“Are you and Mo Zhen living together?”
Li Yan muddedly nodded her head: “Yes . ” Why does Tang Qiang not know about this matter? She thought these type of matters would be reported to the broker .
Seeing that Tang Qiang has no response, Li Yan diffidently added: “Zhen… Emperor Mo allowed me to move in, saying that it would be more convenient for work . ”
Tang Qiang puckered his lips, saying: “I understand, so it was like that . Yet, those boxes he ordered was still sent over here . ”
Li Yan let out an “Oh” . Shortly after, her phone’s SMS tone rang out . She eyed at Tang Qiang . Seeing that Tang Qiang did not show any particular objections, Li Yan then brought out her phone and read the message . “It’s Emperor Mo . He’s asking me how much longer it’ll take . ”
Tang Qiang let out a cry in his heart, gazing at Li Yan saying: “There’s no problems here anymore, you may return . ”
Li Yan let out a breath of relief and prepared to happily bid farewell to Tang Qiang, but then saw Tang Qiang pressing down on a button on the receiver in front of him . “Han Meimei, find a security guard to come up and help transport the boxes to the parking lot . ”
“Understood, Director Tang . ”
Hanging up, Tang Qiang raised his head and glanced at Li Yan: “You may use the company’s car to return . ”
…
“Thank you Director Tang . ” Li Yan faced Tang Qiang and squeezed out a brilliantly strained smile .
The security guard that came up helped carry the packages all the way to the parking lot and into the car’s trunk . Throughout the process, Li Yan attempted multiple times to snatch the packages from the guard’s hands . Attempted .
Gazing at the neatly placed boxes of snacks in the car’s trunk, Li Yan fell into a deep state of thought . Although she has not driven ever since she tested to receive her driving license, but her driving license is certainly genuine in which she took great pains to receive it . Though a bit out of practice, there will always be a first time . Right now the traffic should be all right . Over there at the studio, the road is rather steep, but no cars typically passes by . If she drove slow and steadily, there should be no problems, right?
Li Yan closed the trunk and sat in the driver’s seat, still feeling a bit hesitant . But when she thought how busy Mo Zhen usually is, she knew she couldn’t possibly find the time to practice driving . Calming her heart down, Li Yan started the car .
As Li Yan drove the car out of company grounds, Tang Qiang was in his office on the phone with Mo Zhen .
“You allowed Li Yan to move in with you?”
“En, it would be more convenient for work . ”
“… Your reason is not very convincing nor is it persuasive . ”
Mo Zhen raised his eyebrows, then saying: “Alright, I’m chasing her . ”
Tang Qiang: “…”
“How’s this for a reason?”
Tang Qiang took a deep breath, then raising both corners of his mouth: “I take back what I just said . Your first reason was fine . ”
“I’m serious about chasing her . ”
Tang Qiang: “…”
Couldn’t you have at least pretended to take the hint or was it that you weren’t listening!
Taking yet another deep breath, Tang Qiang switched to a rather serious mood: “Mo Zhen, Li Yan is a decent girl from a standard family . If you want to play, it does not have to be with your own assistant, surely?”
Mo Zhen pouted his lips, inexplicably feeling a bit angry: “You think I’m playing? I’ve never been so serious, Tang Qiang . ”
In this moment, Tang Qiang’s mind flashed over numerous ideas . Only that after he finished processing, he ended up letting out a typical question: “What do you see in her?”
Whether it is appearance, personality, and background, Li Yan is definitely not the best girl Mo Zhen has seen . To be able to move Emperor Mo’s heart… Is it possibly because of her strength?
“Everything . ”
“…?”
“Everything of her, I completely love . ”
Tang Qiang: “…”
Augh! This sweet and sugary person is definitely not Emperor Mo!
Tang Qiang finally couldn’t endure any longer and hung up .
Mo Zhen was at the studio, having waited for one hour and Li Yan still hasn’t come back . Just now when he was on the phone with Tang Qiang, he mentioned that Li Yan had already departed . Why has she not arrived yet?
Can’t help but to knit his brows, Mo Zhen wanted to give Li Yan call . But before he could the phone rang— it was Li Yan .
Picking up almost instantaneously, Mo Zhen spoke impatiently: “Where are you?”
“Zhen Zhen, I’ll probably be a bit late until I can come to the studio… “ Li Yan’s voice was rather quiet, sounding a bit guilty .
“What happened?” Mo Zhen further wrinkled his brows, subconsciously increasing the volume of his tone .
“Earlier I got into a small car accident . I’m now at the Central Hospital…” Towards the end, Li Yan’s voice trailed off to the point where it was no longer audible .
It felt as if an invisible rope suddenly began strangling his heart, rendering him out of breath . Mo Zhen tightened the grip on his phone . Taking a deep breath, Mo Zhen squeezed out the words from his throat: “You wait over there, I’ll be right there . ”
Li Yan then heard the other party hanging up . Li Yan felt that she was really unlucky . She took a look around; shining white walls . She helplessly let out a breath in her heart . She and the Central Hospital were still fated to be together .
Resting on top of the bed for a bit, not having even entered a state of sleep yet, the hospital room’s door then boomed opened with a “peng” .
Li Yan jolted up, quickly opened her eyes and turned towards the door .
Mo Zhen stood there, still wearing his uniform from the drama; even his glasses weren’t taken off . His chest vigorously rose up and down . Upon seeing his out of breath appearance Li Yan knew he ran all the way here .
“Zhen Zhen…” Li Yan gazed at Mo Zhen . Earlier at the company when talking with Tang Qiang, the amount of guilt she felt was incomparable to what she felt right now .
Mo Zhen didn’t say a word, just walked towards the bedside, lowering his head and looked at Li Yan .
Li Yan’s heart began panicking more and more . She opened her mouth, but before she could even utter a sound she was suddenly held in Mo Zhen’s arms .
He embraced her very tightly, as if wanting to forever imprison her in his arms, never escaping .
“Were you trying to scare me to death?” Mo Zhen voice was a bit unstable, his muffled voice coming from the top of Li Yan’s shoulder .
“… Sorry . It was just that I was not careful and struck into a telephone pole . Just some scratches, nothing more .
Mo Zhen’s arms tightened even further around Li Yan . He raised his head, unwaveringly staring at Li Yan: “Who allowed you to drive?”
Li Yan: “…”
This rapid switch in the mood was too fast, Li Yan was unable to catch up with Emperor Mo’s rhythm .
“Li Yan, I’m telling you, do you dare to try touching a car again?”
Li Yan: “…”
I won’t dare Emperor Mo . qaq[4]
After determining that there’s no more problems with Li Yan, Mo Zhen led her out of the hospital . Driving her and the two boxes of snacks back home . Mo Zhen did not speak a word, simply driving the car in utter silence . Li Yan’s heart felt perturbed .
Li Yan swallowed her saliva and laughingly asked: “Zhen Zhen, are we not heading towards the studio?”
“Not anymore . I requested half the day off from the director . ”
“Oh . ” Li Yan nodded his head . After a moment of silence, Li Yan, with a worried tone, asked: “Zhen Zhen, can you not tell Tang Qiang about today’s matter?”
Mo Zhen eyebrows moved, eventually turning his head around to look a Li Yan: “What’s the matter, he means a lot to you?”
“I’m scared he would fire me…” If he knew that not only was she was unable to drive a car, but also that she got into a car accident and got admitted to the hospital, even tiring out Mo Zhen… If she was the boss, she would fire such a person .
Mo Zhen eyed at Li Yan for a while . Concluding that she wasn’t lying, Mo Zhen turned his head back on the road: “Rest assured . If he wants to fire you, I’ll fire him first . ”
Li Yan: “…”
#MyBossIsDomineering#[5]
Arriving at Mo Zhen’s house, it has still yet to hit 4 o’clock . Li Yan was excited to tear open the packages and to take a look inside at what is there to eat, but was drove off to the bed by Mo Zhen before she could . [6] Like a bedroom door’s guardian, he stood there, waiting for Li Yan to fall asleep . When she did, Mo Zhen left the room .
Opening the refrigerator for a look, Mo Zhen pondered over what to eat for dinner . He then took out a pocket knife and teared opened the packages, placing the contents into the refrigerator . Mo Zhen then took a photo with his phone before heading into the living room and starting up his computer .
Logging into QQ,[7] the phone on the table rang . Seeing that the screen flickered the name “Tang Qiang”, Mo Zhen couldn’t help but sneer: “What’s the matter?”
“I heard that Li Yan got admitted into the hospital due to a car accident?”
“Talking about it, I’ve wanted to ask you . I heard that you allowed her to drive?”
Tang Qiang: “…”
“Tonight I want to eat mitten crabs . Why don’t you come over and cook?”
Tang Qiang: “…”
Why did he have to call him? Why?!
Finished with bullying Tang Qiang, Mo Zhen’s heart finally felt a bit better . The QQ app then rang two times; Du Du’s dumpling avatar flickered . [8] Mo Zhen laughed, clicking on Du Du’s avatar .
