The teasing words of Deming irked Lifen, but not like before. The situation got changed a little bit after this incident, "Enough of your teasing. Why are you touching my hair?".
"Because it"s soft. I feel good touching it", Deming chuckled then said in a gentle voice, "Don"t stress yourself, everything is fine now. Go have some rest, you still have to work with me tomorrow. You have to accompany me for a meeting".
Lifen nodded to him obediently.
The next morning, Lifen went to the hospital. Mother Wu was awake and looked better than yesterday. "Mumma, you scared me to death yesterday. How can you be so careless walking on road", she pouted.
"It"s okay, I am fine now. Sorry for scaring you but you can"t lecture me for being careless because your carelessness has no bound. I heard from your father that you Boss has helped us a lot yesterday. We really owe him. Be a little grateful to him and work hard in your job", Mother Wu said sternly.
"Okay... Okay I will work hard but he is not as good as you think of. He always bully me. I know he helped us a lot yesterday but that doesn"t mean that you can side to him and leave me alone to suffer", Lifen snorted.
Mother Wu glared at her expression and was about to say something but before she could, Lifen interrupted, "I got it. I won"t tell anything bad about him. You have the porridge which I made for you especially. Father has gone home and soon be returning. After he comes I have to leave for work".
At that time, the door of the room got open and two officers entered the room, "Mam, we are here to take your statements for yesterday"s accident".
"But we haven"t filed any complaint till now. I was about to inform you", Lifen was confused.
"Mam, yesterday we got a call from Mr.Murphy, the Cheif secretary of w.a.n.g Corporations. He asked us to investigate this case. We would have arrived yesterday itself but they y didn"t wanted to disturb the victim"s rest so asked us to visit today", one of the officer said in a polite manner.
Again the door was opened and a tall and handsome silhouette appeared, "Good morning officers, I didn"t expected you to be this punctual. I really liked punctual people. I hope you won"t let me down and investigate this case as soon as possible". Though Deming has said these words in a casual way but it something created a domineering air around.
One of the officer coughed, "Ofcourse Mr.w.a.n.g, we won"t let you down. Soon the driver will he behind the bars".
Lifen looked at Deming, "You are here this early?"
"What"s with your manners? This is the way to greet your Boss", Deming squinted his eyes on Lifen.
"You...", Lifen wanted to shout at him but then suddenly remembered that three gazes were on her, so she hurriedly said in a polite tone,"I am sorry Sir. Good Morning"
"Good, you are a quick learner. You will sure improve a lot in future", he chuckled and walked towards Mother Wu.
"Aunty, I am Deming. I am in the same cla.s.s as Lifen", he greeted her, "How are you feeling now?"
"Ahh! I am much fine now. I should thank you for your help. I have heard a lot about you. I hope Lifen can work well under your guidance", Mother Wu said in a humble way.
"Yeah the country already know how much devil he is", Lifen mumbled to herself, but it was heard by Deming . He looked at her and his lips curled up, "Thank you for such good words Aunty ,but I am a devil in the business world".
Hearing this Lifen coughed hard, she didn"t expected him to hear her so clearly. Mother Wu quickly said, "No no it"s not like that, Mr. w.a.n.g. The one who is heading to the success are often tried to dragged back by their rivals. It"s just the rumours created by your rivals, I think".
Deming smiled listening her and looked back to Lifen, "I have to discuss something with you about today"s schedule. We should go out and discuss. Let the officers take the statements ". Lifen nodded and went outside with him. The officers came forward to take the statements and asked several questions from Mother Wu.
Outside the room, Deming turned to Lifen and asked, "You called me devil before. You sure have a lot of guts Little Cat".
"Sir, Are we going to discuss something about today"s schedule", Lifen tried to ignore his previous words.
Deming took a long stride and closed the distance between then, "You dare not ignore my words".
Lifen was dumbfounded, "I wasn"t...I wasn"t ignoring your words, it"s just that I don"t know how to answer that. Can you maintain a distance now, we are at the hospital ".
"Hospital? Ohh then will it been fine if we were somewhere else?", Deming chuckled.
"I didn"t meant that...Can"t you ever take my words straight?" Lifen chided.
