CHAPTER 41

Cheng Xiao and Shen Mu returned back to the officed and went straight to their desk. Some people brought their work for Cheng Xiao to check before presenting to Xu Kai.

It was finally the end of the day; it was only few people still around. Cheng Xiao and Shen Mu were walking towards the elevator when Cheng Xiao got a message.

'I am waiting for you outside.' The message read.

"Your husband?" Shen Mu teased.

"Shen Mu don't start now." Cheng Xiao replied.

Shen Mu just laughed; in fact, she was just happy for her friend.

"How are the things going on with your doctor?" It was now Cheng Xiao's turn to tease her now.

"He finally asked..." She started.

"He asked you to be his girlfriend?" Cheng Xiao cut her off.

"Yes!" She said nodding.

"Look at how you are blushing." Cheng Xiao said playfully pushing her shoulder.

"Stop that!" Shen Mu replied feeling a shy.

They reached the reception; they walked out, and Cheng Xiao got into the car. There were still some colleagues outside who were waiting for their taxis when they her getting into the backseat.

Some took pictures.

"I had said it that she was selling herself." One of them said watching the car drive away.

"You can say that again, have you seen how she walks around with her head held high." Another one chimed in.

"But why would Mr. Xu wait for her?" A voice asked from behind.

"We all know Cheng Xiao is not like that." Shen Mu's voice came from behind.

They jumped in fright like thieves that got caught stealing.

"Of course, you are going to speak up for her. She is your best friend after all." One of them replied casting a dirty look at Shen Mu.

"Let's go!" One of them said and they walked away.

Shen Mu watched the way they hurried off and remembered Cheng Xiao's words. Her worries were now starting to become true.

"Mr. Xu did you really have to park the car outside." She asked turning to look at him.

"What? You don't like it?" He asked coldly.

"No! I don't like it, from now on I'll come to work in my own car." She said seriously.

"We can just use this car." He replied.

"I don't want to be seen with you before or after work." He turned and looked at her coldly.

"Suit yourself." He said and turned his head making it look like he was going to sleep.

Cheng Xiao's phone rang, she looked at the name. It showed Ji Xiting calling. Xu Kai peaked at the name and annoyed.

"Get rid of him." He commanded.
