My Perfect Female Boss

Chapter 13 Is it because of me?

It was a quiet cafe, old Thai folk songs were played, reverberating in the space which was full of dim light.

Luoshui Lin was sitting by the window. A cup of coffee was on the table in front of her, and a locally grown rose was in the vase, blooming beautifully.

I walked towards her, looking at her face, which seemed more gentle and beautiful in the mild light.

She stood up and showed me a smile which I was quite familiar as sweet as ever.

I nodded at her and sat down.

We didn't greet each other with "there you are" or "how are you" or any nonsense during the entire process.

"What can I get for you, sir?"

A Thai waiter in an embroidered costume came over and asked politely in Thai.

"Do you have elephant beer?" I asked in Thai as well.

"Yes, sir."

"I’d like to have a bottle, please."

"Yes, sir, just a moment, please."

After the waiter walked away, Luoshui finally seemed to find the opening line and said to me with a smile, "I almost forgot that you speak Thai very well."

I laughed, "Understandable, it would be abnormal if you hadn't forgotten."

Luoshui heard the sarcasm in my words and her face was bleak for a moment.

I didn't say anything and took out my cigarette case, pulling out a cigarette in my mouth.

"Smoking is forbidden here." Luoshui suddenly reminded me.

It just came to me that smoking was prohibited in all indoor public places in Thailand, also in crowded places on the streets, even on the beaches. If being caught, not only would I be fined, but I could even be sentenced to jail.

Reluctantly putting my cigarette back, I asked bluntly, "What is it you want to see me about?"

Luoshui was hesitating, "Are you working for Sea Smart Software Company now?"

"Yes."

"Why?" She suddenly asked unaccountably.

I found it interesting, "To earn money, what else could it be?"

She glanced at me with a complicated look that I couldn’t understand, then lowered her head and remained silent.

The waiter brought up the beer. I poured myself a cup of beer and took a sip.

She also took a small sip from her coffee cup.

She suddenly spoke again: "Tom, I just want to know... you decided to join Sea Smart Software Company and come to Chiangmai, is it because of me? "

"Because of you?" I was stunned, a little confused.

"I broke up with you, so you came to Chiangmai and joined Sea Smart Software Company to negotiate the project of BTT Group. You... you hate me, am I right?"

I was startled, then laughed, and soon felt pathetic and sad.

For myself.

It turned out that I was such a horrible person in her eyes.

However, I still couldn’t forget her and wanted to see her. How stupid I was.

I was a fucking idiot.

I didn't want to answer Luoshui's question because I didn't know how to answer it.

She was half right, I did get involved in the project of BTT Group because of her.

"Tom, I'm so sorry." She apologized again.

"Huh." I sneered and drank the glass of beer in one gulp.

I thought it was time to leave.

"I heard that you're not welcome at Sea Smart Software Company. Is that true?" Luoshui suddenly asked.

I was a little shocked.

Luoshui must know what had happened in the meeting room this afternoon, otherwise she wouldn't have asked this.

When a project team is discussing about the project, sensitive events that happen within the group are never allowed to spread out, let alone to competitors.

It seemed that there was a spy in the project team of Sea Smart Software Company, or at least someone who was close to Luoshui or Wenhuai Cao.

Not noticing the change in my facial expression, Luoshui said, lowering her head.

"Tom, if you're not pleased working over there, come to our company! Our company is not inferior to Sea Smart Software Company in size and power. If you're willing to come over, you'll definitely get a higher salary."

Hearing her words, I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh, "Did you hear something about me? You want me to help you and your fiance win that project, right?"

Luoshui raised her head and looked into my eyes. She felt a tiny bit guilty, but quickly lowered her head again.

"I'm sorry." She apologized again, which was a familiar work for her to do with ease.

At this time, a rhythmic footstep approached from behind, and a man's voice with confidence and even conceit came out, "Mr. Fang is really clever and straightforward."
