Ellen felt annoyed being called "Brother" by someone who he saw for the first time. But when he heard Song Xia"s words, his lips curled up. At least this girl made her feel jealous... Tang Lao yelled at her, "You, how dare you say that?! Brother Ellen, look what she"s saying right in front of you!" She immediately put on a hurt expression. This b*tch! How dare she bully me right in front of Brother Ellen?! She has to pay for it..Ellen closed in and whispered to Song Xia seductively, "Are you jealous, Xia?" Song Xia blushed when she felt his breath on her neck and her heart raced faster. Noticing that Ellen was so close to that b*tch, Tang Lao felt a fire of jealousy engulfing her heart. She bit her lips as Tang Long led her to sit on the right of Ellen, to break the awkwardness his daughter created.
Tang Yao and Secretary Han sat opposite them. Secretary Han reported to his boss, "Boss, The Fang Group were busy so they couldn"t attend the dinner today... Mr.Tang and Ms.Tang were kind and generous, cancelling their important meetings for today and attending just for the sake of your face!" Of course, Secretary Han would like to get close to his future Lady Boss, so he added those compliments.
Tang Long and Tang Lao were flattered by the compliments and felt relieved in their hearts. Ellen didn"t seem to have heard Secretary Han, he was just teasing Song Xia.
"Do you think I"m handsome?"
"What? you like me?"
"Sorry, but you are too far away! All the girls out there are standing in a very longggg line to get my heart!"
"If you want, I can give you a golden ticket to cut in the line!"
"Don"t want? Don"t regret it later then!"
"..." Boss, can you please realize the fact that there"re others around you! You"re chatting to her like we don"t even exist! Secretary Han felt like his words did not bear any effect on Ellen!
Tang Long cleared his throat, ruining Ellen"s mood, "Ellen, let"s discuss the matter." Ellen turned his gaze from Song Xia to Tang Long as he lazily said, "Mr.Tang, when did we become so close that you are calling me with my name?" Even though, he didn"t want to say it as it will be a little rude but he dared to interrupt between him and his lovely wifey so he couldn"t let him off so easily.
Tang Long"s whole body froze as he broke out in cold sweat. He was terrified by that guy"s sudden change in tone. Why did he.. sound so... so dangerous? He just simply said to discuss the matters, what did he do wrong that provoked him?
Tang Lao sweetly patted on Ellen"s shoulder as she sweetly said, "Brother Ellen, don"t get mad! Dad just wanted to talk about the Project C! Relax..." Ellen interrupted her coldly, "Ms.Tang, can you please control your hands? They are dirtying my suit. So, Project C... what"s there even to discuss about? The collaboration is already decided." Tang Lao retreated her hands and bit her lips. Her fingernails dug deep into her hands as she clenched them tightly.
Song Xia scratched her neck as she whispered to him, "Aren"t you being too rude? I mean after all they"re your business partners..." Ellen smiled as he spoke gently, "Don"t worry! They won"t cancel the dealings between the both companies. It"s in the contract. And if they do, they"ll have to pay a big fine for breaching the contract." Song Xia felt relieved as she sighed, "I wish I could return to China and help Father and Brother to run the company." she mumbled to herself. Ellen heard that and vowed to help her when they return to China.
Don"t worry my dear... You have me by your side. I"ll always help you and guide you to the right path. Just trust me.
