Chapter 5:Playfully Teasing An Ye

The next morning,Lan Nian,determined to resign,went straight to Uncle San's office.But on the way,she was pulled into the tea room next to the washroom by An Ye,who had been waiting there."Senior,what are you doing?"Lan Nian relaxed her guard when she saw who it was and frowned,asking as if she didn't know."What am I doing?I should be the one asking you."An Ye sighed and tapped Lan Nian's forehead,saying,"You never seem to act properly.You're here to resign,aren't you?""Duh,do you think I can still stay?"Lan Nian said gloomily."I guessed as much!"An Ye shook his head with a bitter smile,"After you left yesterday,I begged Mr.Xin for a long time.He finally agreed to wait and see how you perform during your probation.So don't cause any more trouble.Follow me and stay out of harm's way,got it?"

"Too late..."

After all that persuasion from An Ye,all he got in return was Lan Nian's two-word response,drawn out with a smile.He was so angry his face turned green.Is this girl a stubborn mule?How ungrateful!

Lan Nian,half-smiling,took in her senior's amusing expression.Then,her almond eyes wide open,she lazily nodded toward An Ye's back.Seizing the moment when An Ye turned around in confusion,she darted out quickly.

But…it took only two seconds before she was"abducted"and immobilized again.

"Hey,pulling and tugging in the office,how unseemly!"While half-heartedly trying to pry An Ye's vise-like grip off her,Lan Nian put on an old-lady-like manner to admonish him.Goodness,her arm's going to be wrenched off.

"I let you win once yesterday.You know,Senior won't trip over the same stone twice.Now,off to work you go!"

A confident glow lit up An Ye's swarthy face.If he didn't show some mettle,this naughty junior sister would really think he was a pushover.

"But,Senior,tell me,that President Peach Blossom the Rogue,is he really worthy of a top-notch bodyguard like me?"

Lan Nian's face suddenly turned strange.She put on a pitiful look and mumbled listlessly.But if you looked closely,you'd see her eyelashes flicker twice,and her expressive eyes gleamed with mischief and excitement.

An Ye,stunned into silence,thought for a moment,then tried to comfort her,"I know that Mr.Xin can be a bit odd and arrogant at times,but…"

Wait,why is this girl bowing her head so low and shaking her shoulders rhythmically?She's clearly snickering!

As An Ye was still puzzled,an angry snort came from behind,"An Ye,you dare to badmouth the boss behind his back!"

Hearing this,An Ye froze,realizing he'd been tricked by his mischievous junior sister again.What a headache!

"Mr.Xin,actually I…"An Ye turned around awkwardly,with three black lines clearly visible on his forehead.Good grief!How did the boss appear so suddenly without a sound?

Xin Wen held today's morning paper in his hand and stood lazily in the corridor,his nose almost turned upside down with anger.When did this most loyal bodyguard become so gossipy?

"Er,Senior Brother,you two chat slowly.I'll go first!"Seeing the little scheme succeed,Lan Nian didn't forget to stick out her tongue mischievously at her senior brother as she made her way to Uncle's office while pretending to be polite.

"Uncle San,it's up to you."

Blue Nian entered to find Uncle San hanging up,with a mix of frustration and amusement.That eccentric nephew of his...

What on earth is wrong with him?He grits his teeth at Nian Nian but still goes to any lengths to keep her.

"Nian Nian,you're here for work.Why not head to your post?"Uncle San greeted with a smile.

"Uncle San, you must have heard. I'm here to resign!" Blue Nian said in a calm voice, her eyes sweeping over the phone in front of Uncle San with a faint, mocking smile.
