Si Xia nodded and stood up. He held Yu Chen's hand as the two walked out of the office.
Just as Si Xia closed the door behind them, they both said at the same time, "Say...."
And they stopped, waiting for the other to continue.
Yu Chen looked at Si Xia. She said, "It's not important. You go first."
Si Xia shook his head. He said, "You first."
Yu Chen: "It's nothing important really. You can ask first."
Si Xia pursued his lips and stared at Yu Chen. She knew it was useless to argue, so Chen said, "Umm....I just wanted to ask.....Why did you wear your hair like that?"
Si Xia replied as he began to walk, hand-in-hand with Chen, "Oh that. Nothing really. I just felt like it. Why do you ask?"
Yu Chen reached out and ruffled his hair a bit more. She smiled, "I just... like them this way."
As she said this, they both heard a light thump behind them. Yu Chen and Si Xia turned around at the same time and saw Xing Chuan, Si Xia's assistant, standing there with his mouth open. A bunch of files lay at his feet, it was apparent that he had dropped them.
He seemed to recover as the two looked at him. Xing hurriedly collected all the files and stammered, "Umm....sorry Sir....I umm....these files needed to be....ummm...."
Si Xia replied as he turned around and began walking towards the elevator, "Put them in my office."
As the two entered the elevator, Yu Chen looked at Si Xia, "Is your personal assistant that clumsy?"
Si Xia looked deep in thought, he said, "It's not usually the case. Maybe he's not feeling well today."
Outside the president's office.....
Xing Chuan stood outside the door like a dummy. He had just seen his boss, who was usually cold and had a very bad temper, especially around women, heading out holding hands with a girl. The woman had even ruffled his boss's hair, and his boss did not seem to mind!!!!
As Xing Chuan hurried into the office, he thought, "Seems like she is someone special. It's great that I didn't offend her. That person might even be our young madam some day."
Inside the elevator, Yu Chen asked, "So...what did you want to ask?"
Si Xia: "About our date."
Yu Chen: "What about it?"
Si Xia: "What about today?"
Yu Chen put a finger under her chin, "I'm thinking of visiting Mr. and Mrs. Mo this evening. So....."
Si Xia patiently asked, "Tomorrow?"
Yu Chen: "I think I'll visit my parents tomorrow."
Si Xia felt like this girl was blowing him off. He stared at her and said word for word, "What about when you return from your parents'?"
Yu Chen: "I don't know when I'll be returning. I'm gonna stay as long as I want to."
Si Xia: "....."
Si Xia realised he had been played by this girl. He pinched her chin and made Chen look up into his eyes. Then Xia said, "I feel like you're trying to trick me."
Yu Chen's eyes darted everywhere except his face, "What do you mean?"
Si Xia held Chen's wrists and pinned her to the wall of the elevator, hands above her head. Then he said, "I'm thinking of changing back the deal to the original."
