CHAPTER 56

Cheng Xiao walked into the office with a board in her hands. 

"The announcement will be made once everyone arrives, I will announce who will get to stay as Mr. Xu's secretary and where the others will be stationed." She spoke.

"Are we not going to be let go?" One of them asked.

They had expected that once one of them was chosen, they would have to start looking for jobs somewhere else.

"That is normally the case, but we have seen how hardworking you all are and decided that it would be a shame if you guys don't stay." She replied.

"Once everyone is here, I will make the announcement." She spoke and started to gather her things.

This was also the last day she would be his secretary; she was going to hand over everything to the new secretary before transferring to the designing team.

Xu Kai walked into the office; all the employees stood up to greet him, he walked past Cheng Xiao, she bowed in greeting, and he nodded at her.

"I'm so sorry for being late." The last one of the male assistants arrived breathing heavily.

"It's fine, since everyone is here then I will make the announcement." Cheng Xiao said and picked up her board. 

The telephone on her desk and she picked it up.

"Come into the office!" Was all Xu Kai spoke.

She looked at the telephone and let out a sigh. "I'll be back in a moment." She said and walked to his office. 

"Yes, Mr. Xu!" She said as she pushed the door open.

"Come here!" He said indicating with his fingers for her to come closer to him.

Cheng Xiao didn't think much about it and walked to him. When she reached him, Xu Kai pulled her and hugged her by her waist.

"What are you doing Mr. Xu?" She asked trying to push him away.

"Can't you just stay by my side?" He asked tightening his grip.

"I want to be a designer." She replied.

"I know, but I am so used to you." He spoke.

"You will get used to them as well. I will make sure to teach them everything about your likes and dislikes." She spoke.

"What about lunch business meetings?" He asked.

"You'll manage!" She said and tried to pry his hands off her.

"Please let go, I have to go back and finish the announcement." She said and he let her go. 

She started walking, Xu Kai stood up and hugged her from behind, he wrapped his arms around her waist and his head rested on her shoulder. 

"What is it now?" She asked with a sigh.

"Why are you so cold to me?" He asked.

"How else should I be?" She asked back.

"Talk to me with love, I am your husband after all." He replied.

"You married me by force remember." She replied and tried to remove his hands.

"Can't you just forget about that part and start over with me. Don't you see how much I love you?" He asked tightening his grip.

"This is not the time and place for this. Let go!" She spoke.
