Ling Fei was pacing back and forth in her room. Raining all manner of insults on Ping Ming after she got fired from the YI's Holdings.
She clenched her fist making her long well trimmed fingers to pierce her palm but she felt a sting pain.
"Ping Ming, I'll surely get you even if it's the last thing I'll do." Ling Fei yelled making her voice to echo inside the room. She just fell on the bed with her whole body fuming in anger.
Her phone beeped, she saw the message on it but the sender was invalid.
[How does it feel to suddenly become jobless? *smile*]
This message was definitely sent by Ping Ming. She thought. Throwing her phone at the other side of the bed, she turned to get some sleep.

"Mr Khan can you help me to transfer this files to the other boards." Anna requested, holding a pile of documents.
"No problem Miss Shen. Are they all signed?" Mr Khan took the documents from her flipping the pages to confirm if there's any signature.
"Yes sir." Anna smiled at him while he nodded and left. She let out a sigh of relief and sat in her swivel chair. Finally she was getting along with the other staffs.
Anna thought were cut off by a woman that was standing close to her table. The woman sat of the chair that was opposite Anna. Anna was stunned by the woman's looks.
So far so good, all the women working here are of high standard and they all look stunning. Although Anna Shen has not seen all but she could tell from the few.
"You're Ms. Shen, the new secretary right?" The woman smiled sweetly at Anna.
"Yes I am." Anna briefed.
"I'm Yang Zhen. I'm the manager here. Care for lunch?" Yang Zhen stood up from her seat still smiling at Anna.
"Sure!"
Yang Zhen introduced herself properly to Anna while the where heading to the cafeteria to have lunch. Anna didn't introduced herself much unlike Yang Zhen who has been blabbing about her rich background.
"My aim also is to become President Li's woman." Yang Zhen blurted. She knew she was daydreaming because everyone knew President Li as a cold-blooded man. No one has seen him smile either, only few worthy staff has met him including Yang Zhen.
"I've heard of President Li before. He's the the cold-blooded head of the organization and also the business god." Anna took the tray from the waitress and the both ladies sat opposite each other while they are their meal.
"Although he might be cold-blooded but he's every woman's dream man." Yang Zhen illustrated.
"I never thought about that. I've never seen him nor have I seen any of his pictures." Anna implied sipping from her wine glass.
"No one dares to take a photo of him not even the paparazzi. They all fear him. Nevertheless, he'll always be every ladies dream man." Yang Zhen said smiling broadly.
Yang Zhen must be really obsessed by this so called President Li. Anna thought. Anna wondered why President Li was feared by his staffs and the paparazzi. He isn't a kind of monster or is he?
Yang Zhen saw Anna confused face and giggled. "Darling, don't worry. President Li isn't a monster nor is he a beast. It's just his personality. The media reporters don't know anything about him and they never dare to gather any kind of information about him nor spread rumors."
" But I heard that he's a gay." Anna blurted but was cut off by Yang Zhen who used her hand to cover Anna's mouth across the table.
"Shhhh don't let anyone here you. Do you know the penalty of what you just said. That was once a rumor. The reporters were sued by President Li. But the rumor was cleared temporarily because no one has seen him with a woman and I'm about to clear that rumor permanently." Yang Zhen giggled using the back of her palm to cover her mouth.
"Good luck with that then." Anna was already tired of the woman's daydream. Anna was never interested in the so called President Li. On hearing the fact that he's a cold-blooded man she just despised him.
She immediately recalled what her mother always told her.
"Don't despise a person you don't know. It's improper."
"We're done with lunch, let's head back to the office." Yang Zhen said standing up from her seat.
Anna couldn't help but to admire the woman standing in front of her. Although she's a female but she also admire other females.
Yang Zhen was wearing a glittering blue gown that reached her knee. She also held her matching blue purse, wearing black heals to fit in. Yang Zhen also had an hourglass shape just like Ping Ming.
Any man could easily fall for Yang Zhen because of her well known personality. She also works as a model and her face appears in most health and beauty magazines.
"Let's go then." Anna followed Yang Zhen still they got to her car.
Yang Zhen should be horrified by President Li's personality instead she's craving to be his woman. Anna would never have anything to do with President Li. She thought of him as a monster in disguise.
They got to their destination and Yang Zhen went back to her office after bidding Anna good bye. Anna enjoyed the lunch she had with Yang Zhen,the woman was one of a kind but thinking of being President Li's woman was stupidity and not bravery.
On her way to her office she met Mr. Khan.
"Hey Mr. Khan" She greeted smiling at him.
Anna stared closely at Mr. Khan. She thought it would be more better to be his woman than to be President Li's woman.
Mr. Khan was always kind to her and he was very polite but she won't judge yet because she has to put her mother's word into consideration.
"Ms. Shen, Director Wang Shu seeks for your presence."
Creation is hard, cheer me up! VOTE for me!
Let's make this book go viral!
"Ms. Shen, Director Wang Shu seeks for your presence." Mr Khan informed her with a big smile plastered on his face.
Anna was nervous but she didn't know why. It was important for the Board of directors to meet with their new employees.
Anna agreed to meet Director Wang Shu, Mr Khan accompanied her. When they got to the office, Anna stood still by the close door. She was hesitating whether to open it or not.
"Why are you so nervous, Ms. Shen? Mr Khan raised his brow with a questioning look.
"Nothing much. Let's proceed." She pushed the door open and went inside alongside with Mr Khan.
All eyes were on her. Director Wang Shu was sitting on his swivel chair with Mu Chen by his left side.
"Sir, here's Ms. Shen." Mr Khan presented Anna to both Director Wang Shu and Mu Chen.
"Leave her to us. You may go." Director Wang Shu instructed and Mr. Khan complied.
"Good day to you both." Anna greeted faking a smile. She was anxious and nervous at the same time. It's her first time meeting the Board of directors and fortunately for her, she met just two of them.
"Ms. Shen, we've gone through your application form and I must say. I'm impressed." Director Wang Shu said clapping his hands.
"Thank you sir." Anna smiled genuinely this time.
" How many years of experience do you have because it was not listed in your form?" Mu Chen was the one to ask.
Why was this man blowing her cover? She has never worked as a secretary before and this man wants to blow it all out. God damnit. Anna cursed inwardly.
" Hum... sir...sir" She shutters. "I've never worked as a secretary before." Anna said while her hands were shaking by her side.
"Oh is that so, why did you apply as a secretary if you've not experienced how the job is?" Mu Chen fired. He was giving her a hard time.
"I know what it takes to be a good secretary sir, if you give me a chance I'll prove it to you." Anna assured them confidently.
"We need serious worker for the job, a person who knows the job well to it's fullest. The Head of the organization won't be pleased if he finds out you don't have an working experience." Director Wang Shu spoke calmly to her.
"I won't let you down sir." Anna bowed her head.
Mu Chen continued starring at her, he gaze was intense. He didn't blink an eye. Anna felt so uncomfortable and wished for the ground to open and swallow her.
Mu Chen didn't say anything till her dismissal.
"There's something off about that lady." Mu Chen said almost in a whisper.
" What do you mean by that?" Director Wang Shu knitted his brow. He couldn't figure out what was in Mu Chen's mind. The man was so mysterious.
" Do you know the name of the lady, Master Wang Shu?" Mu Chen asked with a serious tone.
"Ms. Shen?!" Director Wang Shu responded. "Mu Chen what are you driving at? Stop beating around the bush and hit the nail on its head."
"Let me take a look at her file." Mu Chen said curiously.
" Her file has been submitted to Alexander. What is the matter Chen?" Director Wang Shu angrily said.
Mu Chen ignored Master Wang Shu and went to the cupboard where the employee's documents are kept. He miraculously found Anna's application form.
Her name reminded him of someone. His gaze met with her passport that was on the right side of the form. Now that his doubts where clear he took the form and showed it to Director Wang Shu.
"Take a look at this photo." He gave Master Wang Shu Anna's passport.
"Her name is Anna Shen." Mu Chen continued.
" It can't be!" Master Wang Shu eyes pooped out from it's socket with shock. He continued looking at the photo without blinking an eye.
" The photo looked exactly like the one on Alexander's table." He finally said.
" Could she be....?" His words where cut of by Mu Chen.
" Let's not jump into conclusion, we need to get to the bottom of it." Mu Chen exhaled. Master Wang Shu kept on staring severally at the passport.
"Alexander needs to know about this." Master Wang Shu suggested not breaking his gaze from the photo.
"Not yet, we need to undergo a proper check on her back ground. There's something fishy going on." Mu Chen crossed his arms at his back.
Master Wang Shu just let out a sigh. Although they haven't met with the previous Anna but Alexander has showed them some of her photos.

"So how did it go?" Mr Khan was the first to ask after seeing Anna's anxious face. She use her hand to support her jaw.
"It went well though." Anna tried to fake a smile.
"I can see the worried look on your face." Mr. Khan then sat opposite her.
"I might not get to work here for long because I do t have an working experience." Her frown deepened.
Mr. Khan chuckled on seeing the frown on her face. "Do you know you look so cute when you frown." He smiled pinching her checks gently.
Her cheeks flushed red but it's not the right time to do that. "Stop it with the teasing Mr. Khan, I about to loose the job I just started." Anna said worriedly.
"Ms. Shen, no negative thoughts. Although the AL Holdings employee's undergo some strict but trust me you won't loose your job that easily. Just be committed to it." Mr. Khan advised.
"Thanks Mr. Khan." Anna gave him a smile. That smile he loved seeing.
"You ate lunch with Ms. Yang Zhen right?"
Anna remembered the woman who keeps daydreaming of becoming President Li's woman.
" Of course."
" She must have told you her aim of becoming President Li's woman." Mr. Khan chuckled.
" Certainly, it's impossible right?" Anna asked.
" It might be. President Li is a no nonsense man." Mr Khan said. Anna was about to protest but Mr. Khan's ringing phone interrupted her. He stood up from his seat to answer the phone. As soon as he hung up he gave Anna a knowing look.
"I have to go Ms. Shen. Duty call." He winked and left Anna smiling to herself.
She seemed to be happy with Mr. Khan. He's so carefree. This got other employees talking.
"She's just a newbie here and she's flirting with Mr. Khan."
"I know Mr. Khan will never fall for her."
" She not even ladylike."
Anna tried not to get pissed by their words, she left her office to get some air outside. While she'll wait for the closing hour.
