It's not what you think

Three days later, Xia Xi has been working on her proposal for the project. "How should I start this," she scratched her head and crumbled the paper.

"Come in."

The door opened and it was Fan Fan. "Xia Xi, someone came to see you."

"Who is it?"

"It's Mr. Lei from The Lei's Group."

"What is he doing here," she wonders to herself and takes a sneak peak through the window. "Tell him to come in," as Xia Xi picks up the papers on the floor. She quickly put the last paper in the garbage can and sat back on her chair like nothing happened.

Lei Kai Xuan walked in without knocking on the door. "So? This is the place you work at?" as he scans around her workplace. "I know it's not as nice as yours, but I love this place so you don't dare and judge me!" as she coldly stares at him. "I wasn't going to say anything," he averted his eyes and saw the pile of crumpled papers in the garbage can. He smirked, "so, have you come up with a plan yet for this year's winter collection." Xia Xi jerked back, "well, it's in process," as she nervously said it. "In process? That means it is not done yet." He walks closer to her, "Do you need any help?" as his voice turned sweet. Xia Xi moved more back as he got closer. "What are you doing?" as Xia Xi anxiously asks.

"Nothing, I just want to see something close up," as he puts his hand on her face. Xia Xi's body was stiff and didn't know what to do. She looked up at him and stared into his eyes. Lei Kai Xuan smirks and moves away from Xia Xi. "Come to my office after you finish work."

"Why?"

"Why? If you continue to work like that, we will never start working." He laughed and walked out of her room.

Xia Xi looked down at her unfinished proposal, "Why is doing this so hard. How did I even do this before." She lays back on the chair and sighs. "Xia Xi, are you free today? Want to go and eat dinner?" as Han Chen came in. "Sorry, Han Chen. I can't go,I still have to do this proposal."

"Okay, we could go next time. Just don't over work yourself."

"I won't," as she smiled at him.

Two hours passed and everyone in the building went home already. Xia Xi checked the time and it is already 8pm. "I guess I should head over to his office now?" as she starts packing her stuff.

Thirty minutes later...

Xia Xi got to The Lei's Group and saw the building empty besides two security still outside. "Hi, is Mr. Lei still here?" She asked one of the security guards who was by the front desk. "Yes, may I ask who you are?" "Oh, I'm De Lin's vice president, Xia Xi. Mr. Lei told me to come see him." "Xia Xi?" He checked his book and saw that there's her name on it. "Mr. Lei is on the 30th floor," as he used his ID to activate the elevator to Lei Kai Xuan's personal elevator. "Thank you."

"Wow, he got his personal elevator?" as she was pretty amazed by it. *DING* The door opens and she's on the 30th floor. No one is there besides the far room by the corner with lights still open. As Xia Xi walked closer to the room, she heard some noises inside.

"Mr. Lei, come on. Can you just give me that position?? Xia Xi peaks through the small glass window and sees a woman on top of Lei Kai Xuan. "Pleasesss?" as she flirts and has a coquettish smile. Xia Xi stood there and didn't know if she should leave or what. "Oh Ms Xia, is Mr. Lei not there?" as the security guard came up. Xia Xi looked at him in a panic, "Uhh…" She sees Lei Kai Xuan push the woman away and starts walking towards the door.

"I gotta go," as she ran to the elevator and pressed the button. "Come on, close the door," as she kept pressing it. "Xia Xi? Is that you?" Lei Kai Xuan walked out and started walking towards the elevator. "Why is this elevator not closing," as Xia Xi panicked while keeping pressing the button. The door finally starts to close and Xia Xi could see the peak of Lei Kai Xuan's face through the little slot as the door closes.

"I can't believe you're this type of person," as Xia Xi angrily mumbled out and pressed the button to the 1st floor. "I'm so wrong about you," as she kept pressing on the button. Suddenly the elevator stopped. "What happened? How come it's not working??" She pressed the bell button and tried to call for help. But no one answered her back. She bangs on the door, but it was no help. "Is anyone there?" as she cried out. All of a sudden the light went dark. "Yooo, don't scare me." She pressed the button again and there's no response back. "IS ANYONE THERE??!!!!" She screamed on top of her lungs, but still no one answered back. "Am I going to die here?" as she cried.

She reached for her phone but it ran out of battery. "Omg, why is there no battery when I need you." She slided down on the floor and sat at the edge of the elevator. "I shouldn't have come at all. I should've known that you are going to be no help but trouble. If you want to play with women then do that somewhere else," as she cries and starts cursing at Lei Kai Xuan. Time has only passed like five minute, but to Xia Xi it seems like forever. She slowly stood up again and tried pressing the button. "IS ANYONE THERE?" She hits the elevator with her hand too, but she got so tired that she can't even stand anymore.

"I haven't even married yet," she cried so loud that the elevator started to shake. "What is happening? Is this going to fall?" Xia Xi stayed at one corner of the elevator while her hands and legs were shaking. "Is anyone there? I don't want to die yet!!" as she runs out of breath and slowly loses consciousness.

Suddenly, there's some noise from the outside. "Ms. Xia are you inside? Don't worry we're coming to help." Xia Xi who was on the verge of blacking out, heard the helpers coming on the way to help her. She slowly gains back consciousness, but her leg is still weak. "Ms. Xia, stay with us. The door is going to open soon," as a voice screamed. All of a sudden the door opened and Xia Xi could see a blur of lights coming in. "Am I dead?" as she thought to herself. "Xia Xi are you okay?" as Lei Kai Xuan walked in and saw Xia Xi lying on the floor. Xia Xi heard his voice, but fainted after.

20 minutes later, Xia Xi slowly gains back consciousness. Her eyes opened and saw Lei Kai Xuan sitting in front of her. "Where am I?" as she slowly gets up. "You're at my house. The doctor told you to rest more, so lay still." Xia Xi didn't listen to him, but got up and wore her shoes. "I have to go back home now. Thank you for saving me." As she grabbed her stuff and started heading out, Lei stopped her. "Why do you have to be so stubborn. I've already told you that you should rest more, so stay still." Xia Xi swings his hand away, "Who are you? I don't even know you, so what rights do you have to say things like that to me." Lei Kai Xuan looked at her, "You haven't changed at all Xia Xi. For the past 10 years, you are still that stubborn and won't listen to anyone." Xia Xi got angry by what he said, "Yes! I'm always this stubborn. So what? If you can't deal with it than let's just not work this project together," as she stares at him coldly.
