My Obsession

Grandfather Yang knew how much pressure he has on a mere a.s.sistant, so he didn"t waste any time and went straight to the point. "Tell me what happens between Tong Yue-Yan and the singer Lee Yin-Yin. I want to know everything."

a.s.sistant Tseng was nervous. However, he still told Grandfather Yang everything he could about that day. He reported to Grandfather Yang as he would inform a business contract.

Nevertheless, a.s.sistant Tseng left out one crucial detail, and that detail was that when the two girls were fighting, Yang Tian-Xu had completely ignored them, and left with w.a.n.g Yi-An.

Of course, Grandfather Yang was a sharp man. He asked a.s.sistant Tseng in an authoritative tone. "Where was he at the time?"

"Ah… There was an important matter to take care of at the company, and the president had to return! Sir!" a.s.sistant Tseng lied, and he can feel the cold sweat dripping down his forehead as he held on to the phone as he shakes.

a.s.sistant Tseng was already in the Yang Corps building, he was in his office at the time, and with the air condition on high. However, he was still sweating from the nervousness.

a.s.sistant Tseng had been working for Yang Tian-Xu for a long time. a.s.sistant Tseng is a smart man, and he knows that Yang Tian-Xu will become the future chairman of Yang Corps, however, will it be wise for him to lie to the current chairman? He can only take a gamble and hope that he had stepped foot in the right boat.

"Where is he now?" Grandfather Yang asked as he takes a.s.sistant Tseng"s word for it.

Nevertheless, how could a.s.sistant Tseng know the where about of President Yang? He had yet to see the president this morning. He was not in his office, nor was he in the manager"s office on the seventh floor.

a.s.sistant Tseng thought that perhaps President Yang had something important to do, which sometimes he would do before he shows up at the office. Although a.s.sistant Tseng has no idea where President Yang is, he would make an excuse and said, "President Yang is currently in a business meeting with Mr Jin. Sir!"

Even though, a.s.sistant Tseng knows that lying to the chairman might come back to bite him later, however, the one he chose to maintain his loyalty to is still President Yang.

Grandfather Yang didn"t ask anymore and decided to hang up finally, but before he did, he reminded a.s.sistant Tseng. "Tell him to call me when he is out of his meeting."

"Yes, sir!" He exclaimed as he waited for Grandfather Yang to hang up the phone first. Later, he wiped the sweats off of his forehead. a.s.sistant Tseng quickly calls President Yang to warn him about the upcoming trouble President Yang might face later on.

The time pa.s.sed by quickly, w.a.n.g Yi-An had cooked them some hangover ginger soup and left them on the counter before she went. Yang Tian-Xu looked over at the two bowls of hot ginger soup and took one in his hands. He enjoyed a sip of it, and immediately he felt all tingly inside, and so he let out a silly smile.

Yang Tian-Xu never really like ginger. However, he had finished drinking all of w.a.n.g Yi-An"s ginger soup. Yang Tian-Xu didn"t even bother saving the other bowl for Jin Qi-Long for when he does wake up.

Fung Qi-Wei could only laugh at Yang Tian-Xu"s immaturity. "You"re not going to save that for your friend?" He asked as he watches Yang Tian-Xu drinking both bowls.

"He doesn"t need it." Yang Tian-Xu wanted all of w.a.n.g Yi-An"s ginger soup all to himself.

"Need what?" Jin Qi-Long was stupor as he had finally woken up. The time was 9:35 AM. "Holy Mother…" He finally realised he was knocked up cold from that one shot. "d.a.m.n, that"s one heck of a strong family recipe you got!" Jin Qi-Long complimented and looked around the room.

"I like it! I will become your number one regular from now on!" Jin Qi-Wei chirped as he gave Fung Qi-Wei a thump-up.

Yang Tian-Xu had utterly ignored Jin Qi-Long, even though he thought that he would also come to the restaurants on days when w.a.n.g Yi-An would work there. Hence, Yang Tian-Xu requested her schedule from Fung Qi-Wei.

Fung Qi-Wei felt happy that such a magnet like Yang Tian-Xu would be interested in w.a.n.g Yi-An, and so he disclosed w.a.n.g Yi-An"s schedule.

Therefore, Yang Tian-Xu and Fung Qi-Wei had gotten along well, as he and Fung Qi-Wei talks about w.a.n.g Yi-An"s favourite things. Fung Qi-Wei decided he would give pointers on how to win over w.a.n.g Yi-An"s heart, so he also told him about her likes and dislikes.

Meanwhile, Jin Qi-Long didn"t want to bother Yang Tian-Xu when he is concentrating on a subject. Jin Qi-Long knows Yang Tian-Xu so well, and so he went to put on some clothes and sit there as he listens. He was patient for the entire hour. Then he warns him, "Ah, Tian-Xu it"s almost 11 AM now, shouldn"t you be back at Yang Corps?"

They were surprised to have been talking for another hour before they had realised the time. It was already 10:45 AM. "Well, I guess we should go now, thank you very much for your care, and I apologised for last night." Just as he reaches out a hand to shake Fung Qi-Wei"s hand, he gave him a slight smile.

Fung Qi-Wei took Yang Tian-Xu"s hand for a shake. Nevertheless, he felt like this once arrogant man had suddenly become someone so polite and mannerist, he just had to ask him. "You"re only so polite because of the pointers I"d shared you about what An-An"s likes and dislikes, right?"

"Yes…" Yang Tian-Xu was honest, and perhaps he was a bit too honest that he somewhat had hurts Fung Qi-Wei"s feelings. Still, Fung Qi-Wei would prefer to be on good standings with someone who is the current heir to the Yang Family rather than being on bad terms with him.

Consequently, as when they walked out Yang Tian-Xu"s phone was ringing continuously. a.s.sistant Tseng had been calling him non-stop for the entire hour! Yang Tian-Xu saw the name and along with a bunch of missed call notifications on his phone. He finally decided to pick it up.

"PRESIDENT YANG!!!!" a.s.sistant Tseng shouted as he continued, "Chairman had called, and asked about your whereabouts! He told me to notify you as soon as I can!"

"Yeah. Okay." Yang Tian-Xu always brushes off a.s.sistant Tseng"s emotions. All the while, a.s.sistant Tseng had panicked on behalf of Yang Tian-Xu, what did he get in return? Two simple words that are literal and carries no feelings.

Although, a.s.sistant Tseng was hurt. Nevertheless, he still reports to him his conversation with Grandfather Yang. However, when a.s.sistant Tseng asked him, "When do you plan to return to the office, sir?"

"In a bit, I want to ask An-An if I can give her a lift to work today." He said as he gave him a sly smile. Of course, Jin Qi-Long and Fung Qi-Wei felt like they wanted to hurl.

"Um… President Yang, w.a.n.g Yi-An is already here at the office." a.s.sistant Tseng said awkwardly, as he knows that w.a.n.g Yi-An had already arrived at the office since 9:15 AM, of course, she had told him she would be there late, and perhaps showing up at around 9:30 AM.

"Say what?!" Yang Tian-Xu shouted into the phone. The shout was so loud that it could damage a.s.sistant Tseng"s eardrum.
