"If you have nothing else to say, I will get busy now." Fu Hua said directly as he didn't want to waste time with her on the phone.
"Wait! Are you not going to ask me when I will be back?" Feng Alix asked.
"Why should I do that? I have given you enough time already." Fu Hua said with a frown, then Feng Alix recalled when he said to her to 'take her time during their last conversation.
She had thought he said it out of anger, but who knew he meant what he said?
She thought it must have been hard for him to accept that she was going to stay away from him for another three months, so he had to agree even when he was furious.
That was fast but she was glad she didn't have to plead with him for a long time.
"Fu Hua, don't be mad at me, okay? I will be back in three months." Feng Alix said to him.
"Take your time, I am not in a hurry. I will wait for you to be back." Fu Hua said in a neutral tone.
What he meant to say was, 'You can take as much time as you want, it's not like you are still holding me back.'
Feng Alix was happy and immediately said a few words before ending the call.
When her manager walked in and saw her smiling like that, she asked, "Did you speak to Mr. Fu?"
"Yes. I told him I would be back in 3 months and he asked me to take time. See, he really understands me. He was only furious the other day." Feng Alix said as she put her phone away.
"Hah! Why did you only call him back today when you should have done that earlier since you committed a huge crime?" The manager asked in surprise.
She thought Feng Alix had long apologized to Fu Hua, and that today's conversation was about them talking about another thing, but she just got to know Feng Alix was only apologizing now.
She had since wanted to ask her if she had explained things to Fu Hua, but because of her attitude, she didn't want to ask too much. Now learning of this, she didn't know what to say.
"I only found time today. And what's there to be worried about? I just explained things to him, and he got the message. And besides, Fu Hua is always busy, so I'm sure he wouldn't have time to listen to any excuses, so I just went straight to the point." Feng Alix said as she crossed her leg over the other.
"When are you going back?" The manager asked.
"I told him I will be back in 3 months, but I will surprise him by coming back in two months. After spending a week with him, I will return to finish my work." Feng Alix said proudly.
Her manager didn't want to butt in again, so she remained quiet and accepted what she had to say.
After the call, Fu Hua shut his eyes and massaged his temples for a while before his phone rang.
"Boss, the wife of the minister for sports and tourism, asked to meet with you. Her Secretary just called to inform us so we could set an appointment." Fu Hua's personal Assistant reported over the phone.
"Does she want to order dresses this year or does she have a business proposal?" Fu Hua asked.
"Mmm… Boss, I don't know. What time would be convenient for you?" His personal Assistant said.
"I will meet her tomorrow morning by 8 AM." Fu Hua said.
"What about the meeting with the sales department, when should I fix it?" He asked again.
"Are you my personal Assistant so I would have to instruct you with everything? Arrange my schedule like before. You only need to ask about important matters." Fu Hua said in a cold tone.
"I'm sorry Sir. Then… Goodbye Sir." His assistant said as their conversation came to an end.
Jia Li walked into the room a few minutes later. She didn't have to go to school today, and because she was used to spending time in her room when she didn't have anything to do in school.
"Where do you want to go to today?" Fu Hua asked as soon as she returned.
"I'll be fine with relaxing at home." Jia Li replied.
"Dress up, I have a place to take you to. When we return, you can relax all you want." Fu Hua said after glancing over at her.
Jia Li glanced back at him before asking, "Is it a formal event?" She asked so she would know how to dress since he had a problem with her dressing sense.
Fu Hua glanced at her again before replying, "We are going to have lunch outside. Don't dress too casually. You can put on something easy to remove."
Jia Li felt warning bells ? ringing in her ears as she took some steps back in fear. And it looks like Fu Hua realized his words had an ambiguous meaning, so he explained…
"I'm also taking you to the beauty parlor, and you would need to change out of your clothes there."
"Oh!" Jia Li exclaimed as her palpitating heart calmed down a lot. She still had a palm on her chest as she breathed heavily.
She felt that he frightened her on purpose, but having understood his personality, and the kind of relationship they had, he definitely didn't have time to tease her.
Jia Li walked into the inner room to change her clothes, and she came out a few minutes later dressed in a purple gown with a huge jacket covering her upper body, and a long pair of boots on her feet.
Fu Hua approved her looks with his gaze before going on in to change his clothes. He came out some minutes later dressed in a trousers with a coat on his upper body, and another one in his hand.
"It will be very cold outside, take off the jacket and put on the coat." Fu Hua said as he handed the long overcoat to Jia Li.
