362 Stay with me
“Was it enough to make Young Master Han fall for her?” Song Xueyun asked him with a hmm.
“All she had to do was stay with me and I would find different reasons every day to fall in love with her, ” Han Nanxian answered. It felt so good to be able to express all the feelings that he held for her in words. He was feeling that he was very blessed to be able to say that he loved her to her. How many times has he had this dream of confessing his feelings to her? Now that he had a chance to confess what she meant to him, he wouldn’t take a step back. He would keep telling her how much she meant to him and how much he adored and loved her until he got tired and sick of her which was impossible.
Song Xueyun said no more thing and wrapped his arms around his neck and placed her head on his chest. They stayed like this for a long time. They were alone in the office and basking in the scent of each other. The time seemed to have still for them at that time and they wished that it would stay still because the feeling of having each other close to them was so dreamy that they were afraid that the moment they heard the click of the clock, everything would go back to how it was before – boring and colourless.
“I think I should go, ” Song Xueyun said. “I forgot that I am in the office.”
Han Nanxian smiled, feeling proud of himself. “Good.”
“My boss doesn’t pay me to spend time with my husband, ” Song Xueyun answered.
Han Nanxian laughed at her cheeky reply. “I would have a talk with your boss.”
Song Xueyun rolled her eyes.
“Just sit here for a while, ” Han Nanxian answered. The door to the office opened and his secretary walked inside holding a file. She smiled at her boss and said, “Sir, I need your signature. I apologize. If it wasn’t urgent I wouldn’t have disturbed you.”
“It’s alright, Jenny, ” Han Nanxian smiled. He signed on the file and then said, “Meet my wife, Song Xueyun.”
Jenny looked at Song Xueyun who was sitting on the CEO’s seat and smiled. “It’s nice to finally meet you, Miss Song. We have heard a lot about you from Mr Han but he never informed us that you were his wife.”
Song Xueyun threw a look at Han Nanxian who just shrugged. She shook hands with the secretary and when the latter was gone, she turned her attention to her man.
“What are you up to?” Song Xueyun asked him.
“What did I do?” Han Nanxian asked.
“I don’t understand a single thing, ” Song Xueyun said with a sigh.
“I didn’t give you this job, ” Han Nanxian said. “When we were poaching employees from other companies, your name was at the top of the list that Jenny prepared but it was Li Sicheng who made it clear that you wouldn’t come to our side without asking you. This was the reason why our company never approached you. That day when you resigned and applied here, it was again Li Sicheng who took the decision of hiring you not because you are our friend but because you are the best at your job. I wasn’t told until the last moment. I didn’t even know that the company that you were joining and leaving Shanghai for was my own company.”
“I swear I’m not lying, ” Han Nanxian said.
“I know, ” Song Xueyun sighed.
“If Li Sicheng had approached me, we would have met sooner, ” Song Xueyun muttered.
Han Nanxian smiled sadly. “We had to go through the phases of sadness and separation to be reunited again. It was destiny. We couldn’t change it.”
“You still believe in destiny, ” Song Xueyun questioned him.
“I’m a man who has touched death several times and returned, ” Han Nanxian said. “How can I not?”
“What is the story behind this company?” Song Xueyun finally asked him. “And how did you meet Li Sicheng?”
“I didn’t meet him, ” Han Nanxian said. “He found me. He said he wanted to beat my high school score but couldn’t beat it. Then, I asked him if he would like to compete in college too as we both were studying at university. The boy scoffed and answered me by saying that he would if I finally did something big. I liked his arrogance and when I started the company, I offered him a job. He was an intelligent boy, he was getting offers from big companies at that time but he still took my offer. And today, we reached heights.”
Song Xueyun smiled. “I know he will do something great in life. When we all were tired of the hardness of school life, he was working hard to attend school and get an education so he could become something in future.”
Han Nanxian nodded his head. It was true. Li Sicheng was one of those people who came with nothing but they made fortune with their hard work and dedication at a young age.
“But why didn’t you bring him to China?” Song Xueyun couldn’t help but ask.
“It was him who wanted to come but then my brother called and said if I sent Li Sicheng back to China, I wouldn’t be welcomed home, ” Han Nanxian sighed.
Song Xueyun’s eyes widened. “Zixin was jealous? He is trying to win Xiulan and he thinks Li Sicheng also likes Xiulan?”
“Everyone likes Xiulan, Yunyun, ” Han Nanxian said. “If Han doesn’t work smartly, another man will sweep the girl off her feet and he would be left all alone and no other woman could survive his personality.”
