Feng Xiao Qing thought to herself, "From the way I see it, you are a reckless person!" However, she couldn"t deny that by vouching for her in the compet.i.tion, An Ran Jie indeed gambled her reputation as a golden manager in the company. If Feng Xiao Qing failed, wouldn"t An Ran Jie"s reputation be affected too?Feng Xiao Qing finally relented and stood up. She cupped both of her hands then made an exaggerated polite bow to An Ran Jie, "Then... An Ran Jie... Please take care of me!" They were already in the same boat and she could only agree with An Ran Jie"s arrangement.
"Naturally, it"s my job," An Ran Jie said with a smile. "But you have to know something first. Your training will also be crazier than the one that I made for Yun Yi. It will be twice as hard. Do you believe in yourself that you can do it?" An Ran Jie asked. She wanted to see Feng Xiao Qing"s determination.
If she didn"t believe in herself and she was lazy, it was better if they stopped at this point.
Feng Xiao Qing nodded, feeling her heart was full of determination. "I can!"
An Ran Jie scrutinized her expression and what she saw made her feel satisfied. She nodded and laughed, "Good! Let me do the preparation and you just need to do what I want you to do! Of course, if there"s something that you feel unsatisfied with, you can just tell me. We can change or modify it if it"s possible. Don"t worry! I will not push you beyond your limit or ruin your body because of my ambition. This... I can promise you."
Feng Xiao Qing nodded because she believed in An Ran Jie. "Thank you, An Ran Jie!" Feng Xiao Qing thanks her wholeheartedly. Even though she knew the path that she had chosen wouldn"t be easy, at least, she had An Ran Jie"s guidance. After finished talking more for a few minutes, Feng Xiao Qing left An Ran Jie"s office and prepared to go home.
She pondered over her conversation with An Ran Jie. She had the determination but she had one thing that she needed to think about more. When she was in deep training, it seemed like she couldn"t stay on Xiao Xi Xi"s side that much. Should she curry favor with the big boss regarding this matter too?
After all, for becoming her "fake" boyfriend, he should be taking responsibilities for her and Xiao Xi Xi, right? He already knew that she had a daughter, so... in this case, when he started a "relations.h.i.+p" with her, it kinda bought one get one free. Bought her with their "contract" and he got Xiao Xi Xi too! After thinking like this, she sighed in relief. She didn"t care how unreasonable she was, but if they wanted to defeat Lu Ming Cheng together, then they were a team, right? Teammates should help each other, right?
If Lu Yi Feng heard her thought, he probably would throttle her! After all, in a sense, he was her employer. But in her mind, he indeed suddenly became her "real" boyfriend and Xiao Xi Xi"s father! Despite how she convinced herself that they were only in a "fake" relations.h.i.+p. Just how much this woman wanted to take advantage of him? Too bad, the big boss was still oblivious to the little devil"s mommy"s scheme.
She didn"t really feel familiar with the company"s layout, except Lu Yi Feng"s office. Her lessons were on the same floor as Lu Yi Feng, so she only needed to walk for a little bit and she would arrive there. Feng Xiao Qing didn"t realize that she unconsciously walked to the usual path which led to Lu Yi Feng"s office. Even though her mind was elsewhere, but her body recognized the way on its own.
Lin San was sitting on his desk just like usual when he saw the dazed Feng Xiao Qing. The boss had an important guest at the moment so he had to prevent Feng Xiao Qing from coming. He stood up and called the woman, "Xiao Qing... Xiao Qing..."
She wasn"t his lady boss yet and their relations.h.i.+p was a secret, so he could only call her by her name. It took a few times more calling before she came out of her trance. She was too deep in thought, thinking about what kind of moves she should make toward Lu Yi Feng so the latter would agree with her demands. When she saw Lin San, her eyes lit up and it made Lin San shudder in fear.
"What?" Lin San asked hesitantly.
"Come... come closer..." Feng Xiao Qing talked and at the same time, she made a gesture for Lin San to come closer.
The latter obediently followed her lead and gave her his ears. "What?" He asked once again.
"Can you tell me how to curry favor with the boss? Can you tell me his likes and dislikes?" Feng Xiao Qing whispered.
Lin San glanced at her in surprise, "Why do you want to curry favor with him?" Lin San thought that this woman was really a bit weird...
Feng Xiao Qing laughed bashfully. "You don"t need to know!" She was too embarra.s.sed to say the reasons --- it was... to take advantage of their boss!
Lin San blinked a few times and thought, "Will the big boss spring time[1] finally come?"
