Stealing Your Heart

“Ms. Bai, should her wage be deducted?” Wu Meixia said provokingly.

Bai Zhuwei replied in a professional manner, “Based on the rules of our company, yes.”

“I didn’t mean to make a scene out of this trivial issue. But she still insisted that she took a leave even though she’s obviously late. The character of those who make such lies must be…”

“She requested a leave.” When Wu Meixia was elatedly insulting Lin Xinyan’s character, a deep voice interrupted her.

Wu Meixia was stunned and thought that she heard it wrong. Would Mr. Zong be troubled by such a trivial matter? Quite Impossible.

“A person who’s late and lies about it must have a poor character and should not stay in our company.”

“She requested a leave, and I agreed to it. Do you want me to repeat it?” Zong Jinghao said it slowly and with emphasis, as if questioning someone overbearingly.

This time, Wu Meixia heard him loud and clear. The first time could just be a hallucination, but the second time surely wasn’t a hallucination anymore.

It was totally inconceivable to her.

Such a matter should be dealt with by Ms. Bai, and the boss won’t need to handle it by himself.

Who is this woman to Mr. Zong?

It has been the second time…

“Alright, do your work.” Bai Zhuwei pretended to be indifferent.

But she was rather anxious.

When Lin Xinyan casually glanced at Bai Zhuwei who was pretending to be calm, a thought crossed her mind. She wished to prove what Aunt Yu said earlier; that Zong Jinghao didn’t really love her but did so due to some reasons.

The reasons were related to the trip to Country A.

She initially wanted to think it as a mere coincidence.

But what Zhuang Zijin and He Ruize said to her today deeply moved her.

Her child needs a father.

Bai Zhuwei entered the office with Zong Jinghao. After reporting on his schedule, she handed over the itinerary and asked him tentatively to sound him out, “Should Ms. Lin accompanies you to the banquet?”
