CHAPTER 57

"When will we ever get time to talk? You always brush me off at home." He said and loosened his grip.

Cheng Xiao took the opportunity and stepped away from.

"We are not from the same status, I was just your secretary now you married me by force and brought me back to work for by threatening me, you refuse to let me do what love, how else should I talk to you?" She asked.

"I am not like other girls who dreamt of becoming Mrs. Xu." She added.

"I know, that's why I could not help but fall in love with you." He said running a hand through his hair.

"And this love of yours is suffocating me." She said and his eyes flashed at her with coldness.

"Go, we'll talk at home." He said coldly.

"There is a dinner party to welcome the new employees.

"The whole office will be going." She added.

"I get it I will be there." He spoke without any expression, Cheng Xiao nodded and walked out of his office.

Xu Kai watched her walk away and ran his hand through his hair in frustration. Why couldn't she be like the other girls who were fawning at him? But then again, the main reason he fell for her was the fact that she didn't try to flirt with him.

She made sure to keep a distant when she was near him, or when she was showing him the documents she would stay at a distance, unlike his previous secretaries who used to unbutton their shirt when they walked in.

When it came for them to show him the documents, they would stand so close to him and leaned in so close for him to get a glimpse of their breast. That actions always annoyed him and would fire them on the spot.

When she first became his secretary, she thought that she would be the same, but she turned out to prove him wrong. She never battered her eyes when she talked to him, she was just too professional about her work.

Aside from managing his work schedule, he noticed that she would fix the mistakes of others before the work reached to him. She also took charge in his diet; he was known as a picky eater since childhood, but she somehow knew exactly what he needed.

What was it so hard for her to forget about how they got married? All he wanted now was for her to open her heart to him. Even now that they were married, she still addressed him so formally at work.

His phone started to ring, and he saw that it was a call from his mother.

"Yes!" He said with a sigh.

"Is that how you talk to your mother?" She scolded and started shouting at him, Xu Kai pulled his phone away from his ear.

When he felt that she stopped talking he placed his phone on his ear once again.

"What is it mother?" He asked.

"What about Cheng Xiao? Did you stop her from meeting that guy? I am telling you, you better not let her go, I have already excepted her as my daughter in law. Heaven knows who else will be able to manage you." She scolded.

"Yes, she is now your daughter in law, so you don't have to worry anymore." 

"What do you mean?" His mother asked.

"We're married now." He said without any reaction.
