His Trepidations (2)

But Yan Xiaojun's worries increased.

"Why do you have to shake hands with the CEO? That's absurd. I mean was it even necessary?" he asked in an irritated tone.

Wu Lina looked at him with disbelief. He was acting weird.

"I don't think you should shake hands with strangers," he said with a pang of jealousy that was evident in his acidic tone.

Wu Lina was alerted. But she shrugged her shoulders trying to avoid his feelings. "Well, that's the norm."

Not wanting to talk any further on this matter, she quickly finished her food and bade him good night. "I am really tired. Good night," she said with a hint of disapproval.

Over the next few days Yan Xiaojun became more inquisitive about her interactions with Yang Xinyu. He sounded like a jealous lover who was beginning to get possessive about her. He would often start questioning her when she had to stay back late at night to complete her work.
