Chapter 115 - Mr. Not So Opportunist!
After Su Xinyue left, Han Zihao picked up his phone and stared at Xu Nuan's number for a while hesitatingly before dialing it.
After ringing for long, she finally picked up as he heard her say, " What's up 'Mr. Not so Opportunist!" She greeted cheerily.
His brows knitted when he heard her calling him with such a quirky name. He took a deep breath and asked, " Now what is this for? Mr. Not so Opportunist? What kind of name is that? "
" Well, I confessed to you, but you pushed me away. I told you everything but you asked me for some time. However, even after giving you plenty of time, there is no progress. Not a fu&*ng progress.!" she said in exasperation as her expressions turned grim remembering how busy they are in their works and almost forgot each other's existence.
Han Zihao pursed his lips upon hearing her blaming words. He was about to retaliate but no words came out. She is right. Even though he told her that he will sort out his feelings, but he didn't actually do anything for that nor expressed his feelings clearly to her.
He knows that he is being a jerk to her but there was a kind of guilt that was stopping him from accepting her feelings.
However, before he could say anything, he heard her say, " Han Zihao, I don't like you anymore. Let's just stop it here. It's really difficult and hard for me to wait for you."
His expressions fell when he heard her words. What? Why? He was shocked when she suddenly dropped this bomb on him. Their relationship hasn't even started yet and she was already planning to end things with him?
He panicked and felt a surge of fear inside him. He never thought that she would say something like this but he suddenly felt the fear of losing her and stopped bothering him. He has gotten so used to her following him that he even hears her voice in his dreams as well.
" What...what are you saying? I.." Han Zihao was at loss for words and couldn't think anything right upon hearing her bold words.
But his words were soon interrupted by her as she continued, " I was going to say that before but...I changed my mind after reading Feng Shen's message." she said.
Han Zihao could hear her giggle after she completed her words. He frowned and wondered what Feng Sheng had told her that she was acting like this.
" What..what did he say?" He asked cautiously while leaning on the table as he looked towards the door of the office.
On the other side, Xu Nuan giggled after hearing his shaky voice and was imagining his confused bewildered expressions.
" I heard that your mother visited your office today...because of me," she asked.
"Hmm." He hummed as he played with his pen. He frowned and wondered if Feng Sheng works for him or her. He is like a secret spy and always sells his information to everyone.
Before his grandma was not enough and now Xu Nuan as well.
" She wanted to lodge a complaint against me?" she chuckled, remembering Feng Sheng's text message. She was working on the track that the girls recorded the other day but when her phone buzzed, she saw that she was getting multiple text messages and voice messages from Feng Sheng.
She was amused thinking that Su Xinyue went to complain about the transaction to Han Zihao and didn't come to her. She would have given her the right answer.
Han Zihao sighed and rubbed his temples before saying, " Yes, but you don't need to worry. She won't be able to do anything against you. I have warned her." he said, forgetting that he had called her to know where she spent the money and not get swayed away by her questions.
Xu Nuan played with her coffee cup by circling her finger around the cup and smirked, " I know. My future boyfriend has protected her future girlfriend in front of her evil mother in law, or should I say wife?" she said teasingly in a low voice which sounded like a whisper.
His cheeks turned crimson upon hearing her flirting words. His grip on the phone became loose as he almost dropped it on the ground. Hearing her honey-like sweet words, he couldn't help but gulp in nervousness. His heart for some reason seems to beat faster than before.
' This girl…' he pursed his lips thinking how smoothly she made him nervous. She sure knows how to play with him.
Before he could overcome his sudden shock, he heard her say, " Mr. Han, I never thought that you think of me as a...perfect girl for you. On that note, forget about dating, should we just get married? That would reduce the workload and would be less exhausting?" she teased him.
While saying this, she was grinning ear to ear and was boasting remembering when Feng Sheng sent her a message informing her about Su XInyue's arrival and how she made a scene at his office.
Not only that he gave her the live update when Han Zihao told off Su Xinyue by saying that Xu Nuan is the perfect girl for him. She was glad that she has been good to Mr. Secretary since the start and due to that, she has the privilege to get the live updates about him.
That's why one should keep a relationship with their husbands' secretary to get their live updates. At least she can be at peace that she will get first-hand news of Han Zihao if he dares to cheat on her in the future.
'Wait...Is there a need to think worse of everything before something good happens?'
Han Zihao gritted his teeth when he remembered how Feng Sheng was standing right outside the office, that's why he managed to enter the room as soon as he called him. So he was updating Xu Nuan about him while standing outside?
'Hah!' he scoffed in disbelief thinking how smoothly he was making connections with Xu Nuan.
He pursed his lips and wondered if he should punish him or reward him because it was because of him that Xu Nuan was grinning happily and she didn't take seriously the thoughts of ending things with him.
He coughed lightly in embarrassment and didn't answer her question. Instead, he asked, " I heard that you deposited the money? Where did you spend it? It was such a large amount, what are you planning to do with it?"
Xu Nuan raised her brows as she was surprised how casually he was asking her this question. Does he really want her to use his mother's money?
Shouldn't he be angry that she took that woman's money?
"I...am planning to buy a car with that money. It's too uncomfortable to travel in subway and buses you know,"
Xu Nuan who was waiting for his response was surprised when he said, " But..do you know how to drive? Do you have a driving license?"
"-_-"
Xu Nuan was surprised that he sounded interested in her idea. She laughed mildly thinking how he changed from that day when he saw that check. That time he doesn't want her to use even a single penny from her and now he was ready to support her to buy a car?/
Impressive.
" Well, of course, I have…" Xu Nuan's words stuck in her throat as she remembered that in this life, she doesn't have a license. She can't drive a car because she doesn't have a license.
In the past, she has not only driven cars but she had the collection of best sports and expensive cars. She likes driving so much but she needs to go through the test to get her license all over again now.
" I don't have now but I will get one later. Also, it doesn't take much time to get it done. It's a piece of cake for me, you know." she said while flipping her hair to the back.
He didn't say anything when he heard her boastful words. She sure knows how to praise herself.
" Yeah, I will teach you how to drive later but tell me honestly, where did you use that money?" he asked her seriously.
Xu Nuan pursed her lips hearing confidence in his voice. Her lips curled up in a smile as she said, " You will teach me driving? Why? Did I ask you to do so?" she teased as she picked up his words that he said unknowingly.
He frowned and didn't say anything, waiting for her to answer his question first, "That money…." she trailed off while keeping him on the edge.
