Chapter 36 - 2.12 – Mistress? (3)



Bing Shi grinned, "My boyfriend is charming, isn't he?" When she saw Mia, her eyes behind her glasses brightened, she clapped her hands in delight, "Woah, a beauty~ Xuan Mu, can you please offer your seat for a lady?"

Xuan Mu stood up and gave Mia his place unwillingly. He crouched down in front of his desk, both of his hands supported his chin as he looked at the monitor like a child watching his favorite cartoon.

Mia sat down silently. Her body was shaking from too much fear of losing everything, her reputation, her whole carrier, her dignity.

"..." Mia looked at the woman on the monitor. Plain looking with a strange fashion sense. Was she wearing a chicken costume? There was nothing remarkable about his girlfriend. Mia looked ten times better. She felt unfair. She was better looking! She was the one who'd sit in Xuan Mu's car! The one who'd work overtime for him! The one he was kind to, the one he always complimented! Why was Xuan Mu dating someone like her?

Mia felt she was better suited for Xuan Mu than Bing Shi.

"About that previous act... Xuan Mu~ Did you enjoy the live p.o.r.n?" Bing Shi called out, she looked at Mia with a grin, waiting for his response.

"I did because you watched it with me," Xuan Mu laughed out loud.

"Xuan Mu, who taught you to be nice to people?" Bing Shi asked as she looked at Mia.

"My Bing Shi," Xuan Mu grinned.

"Xuan Mu, who gave you an idea to take in a beautiful secretary to distract your opponents?" asked Bing Shi, her eyes never leaving Mia.

Mia closed her eyes tightly, tears dripping down her face, refusing to look at Bing Shi.

"My Bing Shi~" Xuan Mu called out her name with a bigger grin.

"Still dare to think you are better than me?" Bing Shi looked at Mia with a raised eyebrow.

"No," Mia's said with defeat. The confidence of that mysterious woman shattered Mia's confidence to smithereens, "I'll write a resignation letter."

"Do you think a resignation letter will solve it? He trained you for so long, and because of your own mistake, you are going to run away? Such a waste of resources. Good luck with finding a new job," said Bing Shi in disappointment.

"..." Mia looked at her hands full of regrets.

"How about a second chance? Do you have it in you? To be a better secretary?" inquired Bing Shi with a smile.

"Huh? You don't mind?" asked Mia. There is a second chance? 'Can I still work with him? Isn't she, his girlfriend? Isn't she scared I'll steal him? What's wrong with her?!'

"Why would I? Take this chance, or Xuan Mu will find a secretary of higher quality," chuckled Bing Shi.

"No! I'll do better! I promise!" Mia almost lost her job! She couldn't lose this job. It's just too good! She needed money!

"Good! Take this event as a life lesson. Heads up. It's normal to fall for someone like him. None of us would judge you. Sorry for earlier, we were just messing around and wanted some fun," Bing Shi laughed ineptly.

"Mm, Thank you for a second chance," Mia teary eyes looked at Bing Shi with gratitude.

Bing Shi crushed Mia's confidence instantly; the alarming thing was, she could repair it as fast as she destroyed it, "No problem. Go home and take a good rest. Do you want my contac-..."

"No," Xuan Mu stopped Bing Shi from continuing. He looked at Mia with his vague smile, "Goodnight, Mia."

Mia looked at him with fear. She quickly said goodbye and left.

After Mia went home, Xuan Mu sat back at his seat. He tried to hold back his possessiveness, unsuccessfully, "Bad girl, even if she is a woman, never forget who you belong to. Don't befriend random people."

"I'm not giving our well-trained personnel to our competitors," Bing Shi chuckled.

"I don't care if she is a good secretary, if you befriend her again, I'll kick her out," murmured Xuan Mu through gritted teeth.

"Are you jealous over a woman?" Bing Shi smiled at him.

"Nobody can steal you from me," Xuan Mu's infatuation didn't lessen. It kept on growing.

"Don't worry, aren't you protecting your treasure with all your might? Nobody can steal it from you," she giggled, "Xuan Mu, what about our MuMu?"

"It stopped being hard when she interrupted us with her shriek. At that moment, I wanted to kill her," Xuan Mu pouted innocently. It was their second time being naughty, such a rare moment.

"Poor MuMu. Xuan Mu, do you know why I befriended her?" Bing Shi giggled.

"Hm?" Xuan Mu looked at her with interest.

Her arms on the table, her head lazily laying on them, there was a slight smile at the corner of her mouth, "There is a bigger punishment awaiting her. The more she'll work with you, the more she'll love you. Utter torture for her, don't you think?"

Xuan Mu closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "I love your twisted side," he bit his lower lip, hard.

Bing Shi smiled lovingly at his reaction, "Won't she be scared of us?"

"Don't worry. I'll make her forget," Xuan Mu assured Bing Shi with a smile; his eyes kept shut, anticipating her next words.

Bing Shi looked at him with adoration, "I love your twisted side too."
