Chapter 59: A request to perform

Alix was surely not expecting madam Qian again so soon, certainly not today. She had assumed that they would get into contact after she secured the necessary funds to purchase the school.

She did not show the surprise on her face and maintained a neutral look on her face.

"Madam Qian, it's a pleasure to see you." Alix smiled stiffly at the woman and led her into her office. 

From the corner of her right eye, she noticed Jin Kang waving at her urgently. 

"What?" she mouthed at her. 

"Do you need help?" Jin Kang mouthed back. 

Alix shook her head and mouthed, "No." Of all things she needed help with, dealing with madam Qian was not one. 

She turned her back on Jin Kang, went into the office and closed the door which she normally left open. 

"Is it true that you are pregnant?" 

Madam Qian asked the question before Alix could properly sit down. 

"No." Alix answered.
