Chapter 74 - Meanwhile At Hou Enterprises
Thursday, continued ...
After the departure of the immigration officials Hou Yi and Anna separated.
"Thank goodness that is over," Anna said in relief. "I was about ready to scream."
Hou Yi moved to his desk and opened his laptop, and noticed a message from his bodyguards. After reading the message he spoke. "Anna, we have some more information. Lawyer Mei, called immigration expressing a concern that you were working illegally. That is understandable when she does not know the truth. However Supervisor An called Yang Lin's personal assistant. Well we know that she is a spy for Yang Lin and Lu Jinhu."
"Well I can use that when I go back to the Legal Department. We just have to figure out who else are the spies."
"The receptionist who was on duty when you arrived also is. Unlike Supervisor An, who at least made the call from her mobile, in an area that she thought was not covered by the cameras and recording, this woman simply made the call from her desk."
"Two down then. Make sure that she is on duty on reception when I arrive and go to leave each day. She will automatically call and make a report. The fact that I am moving around freely will drive them insane."
Anna paused, and thought further. "We need to get to those documents I printed earlier."
Hou Yi gathered the documents from the printer, while Anna went and collected her laptop bag and purse from Assistant Wang. Assistant Wang, quietly mentioned "Madam Hou, can you please let CEO Hou know that lunch for you will be delivered at 1pm."
Anna returned in, and shut the door behind her, dropping her handbag, and the laptop on the couch, and walked over to the desk. "Assistant Wang said lunch would be delivered…" Anna paused and looked at her watch "…in 30 minutes. We should be able to get though all of this in that time."
With that, both concentrated on the work in front of them with Anna explained the documents to Hou Yi, who signed them when he was satisfied with them. About 5 minutes before lunch was due, they were finished, and Anna stuck her head out handing the documents that were signed and asked Assistant Wang "Could you please scan and email these to me, then send these back by the quickest international mail to ANX in Melbourne. My email is listed on the documents. Thanks. Further my husband said, if you are here when the catering team arrives with lunch to send them in, however once you have dealt with the documents he said to go and take your lunch."
Anna closed the door, and before she sat down on the couch, Hou Yi moved her handbag and laptop, and she sat down.
Hou Yi, sighed then said, "I would guess that Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin are likely to have at least one spy in the catering team. They have reasonably free access to this floor, and when directed can enter this office. Are you OK with putting on, like with the immigration officials another little show?"
"Well to mess with those two, well and truly. What is the plan?"
With that Hou Yi, took off his jacket, and dropped it on the floor, he undid and threw his tie partway across the room, and three buttons on his shirt. "I need to partially unzip your dress, and am going to completely undo your hair, if you are OK."
Anna reached up and undid her hair, for Hou Yi, reached and partially unzipped Anna's dress. He partially sat and partially laid down on the couch and urged Anna to lay on top of him. As they heard the door handle turn, he took Anna's face in his hands ensuring the wedding band was visible and commenced to kiss her, and Anna put her left hand on his shoulder, again making sure her wedding ring was visible and the other inside the partially undone shirt.
As the catering staff came in to set up for lunch, they heard "Oh My God, we are so sorry CEO Hou."
With that Hou Yi reluctantly ended the kiss but made sure that he could keep Anna's face hidden, and said, in a harsh voice, "Leave it there, get out and shutting the door behind you. Let whoever is out there know we do not want to be disturbed."
The Catering staff clearly understood the message from Hou Yi, 'how dare you interrupt us, just leave is alone, as we have something that we want to be doing'. He was also certain that two of the catering staff saw both his and Anna's wedding bands and recognised that they were a matching set.
Once they heard the door shut. Anna quickly stood up and turned her back to Hou Yi for him to re-zip her dress up, and once he did that, he re-buttoned his shirt, and picked up the jacket and tie to put back on.
Hou Yi then said "I think that worked. The two women definitely saw both our wedding rings and realised that they matched, so we can safely say it will be over the whole building before the end of the day that I am married and was caught by staff making out with my wife in my office. They did not see your face, so who my wife is will remain a mystery. I wonder how many of the spies planted in this building will call Lu Jinhu, Yang Lin and their families to tell them that."
"Hopefully it will flush out a few more spies. I would love to be able to see their reaction when they first get the news about that.
"Let us have some lunch. I think it will need to be around 2pm that you leave, and return back to the female legal office, for this afternoon."
