<h4>80 Cheating Partner?</h4>


    "You''re calling off your murder n just because you don''t have a backyard? How can you even talk so casually about murdering your own boss?"


    Scary was not enough to describe her anymore. She was wicked - not just odiously but also impiously.


    "Well, I''m not calling off the n but rather just thinking whether to buy a house with a backyard or change my n," Xiu answered with a straight face. Dn boarded his car in a hurry to hide from her. He felt like a victim already. Xiu also boarded the car with a smirk.


    "Why don''t you just hire a driver?" Xiu suggested while she buckled her seat belt.


    "I don''t like people touching my cars," he answered and when Xiu gave him ''The Look'' that reminded him how he had just asked her to drive, he added, "You''re my E.A. There is at least some difference between you and other people. Bute to think of it, you don''t even treat me like a boss."


    "Start acting like a boss and I''ll start treating you like one, Sir," Xiu replied without missing a beat. She had insulted him in a respectful manner. First, she said what she wanted to and added that ''Sir'' at the end to show how polite and respectful she was.


    Dn was left with no response or maybe he didn''t want to. After all, his blood pressure was already rising because of her. He fixed his eyes on the road and took long breaths to calm himself. "You have really long hairs," hemented absentmindedly.


    Xiu really wanted to open his brain to see what really was in there? "Thanks for noticing," she replied in derision.


    "No need to be this sarcastic. You never wear your hair down so I didn''t notice it before." When Xiu didn''t bother to give him a reply he went on, "I have seen you going back and forth to your previous department. Is there someone you can''t part with?"


    Xiu looked at the side of his face and answered, "There is an intern. I promised to be responsible for her until her internship period ends. Then I was promoted. But I can''t just leave my responsibility like that. So, that''s why I go back to my previous department."


    Dn bobbed his head up and down slowly as he said, "We both value responsibility. I like that. It makes me feel like we are perfect together."


    "Please don''t say that again," Xiu stopped him from saying any more. "Being perfect in any context with you? I''d rather kill you."


    "Are you sure it''s not?''kill myself''?" he questioned cautiously while he stopped the car in front of a restaurant.


    "Not at all. Been there. Done that. Not walking the same road again," said Xiu in a vague manner as she alighted down from the car. Killing herself once was enough! Walking the same path twice never ends well.


    When Dn didn''te out of the car, she leaned ahead and asked, "Aren''t youing?"


    "Wait inside, I''ll join you after parking the car," Dn replied and rolled up the windowpane before revving away.


    Xiu looked in the direction?he left and shook her head, "He is really possessive with his cars. Bloody psycho!" Xiu entered the restaurant. "Hi, I made a reservation for lunch at 1300hrs. The name would be Mr. Dn Qiu."


    "Let me confirm that," the restaurant employee said politely and looked through her tabletputer. "Yes, Miss. Follow me, I''ll take you to your table."


    "I''m with someone, let hime," Xiu replied and the pretty and bubbly girl nodded at her. Xiu sat down on the sofa in the waiting area. There were plenty of magazines lying on the coffee table but she didn''t pick any to read. She had long lost her interest in magazines. That was also one of the reasons why she didn''t recognize Dn. Because usually, people recognized him everywhere. He was always on the front page of some business magazines.


    She looked back towards the entrance and shot up from her seat with wide eyes. But the silhouette that had surprised her was no longer there.


    Her heart rate quickened while her eyes looked dazed. Was it the same person she thought? Or perhaps her mind was being delusional.


    "Earth to Ms. Bai," Dn waved his hand before her eyes and smiled. "Why do you look lost? Did you see your partner cheating on you or something?"


    Xiu looked at him with a dangerous look and said, "That''s not funny at all."


    "If you say so," Dn shrugged his shoulder and they finally walked towards their lunch table. But even while walking, Xiu''s eyes were looking around as if to find someone. She really looked out of sort. She was sure that she wasn''t mistaken. But if she wasn''t mistaken then how could anyone vanish within a blink of an eye? Dn tapped her shoulder and said, "Who are you looking for? Don''t tell me your girlfriend is really here?"


    Xiu frowned at his words and asked absentmindedly, "Why would Nora be here?" She had taken his ''girlfriend'' in a tonic context while he definitely didn''t mean it in a tonic sense. If anything, Xiu''s reply confirmed for him that Nora was her girlfriend as in girlfriend, not just a girl who happened to be a friend.


    "It''s good as long as it''s not your girlfriend you''re looking for," he stated and muttered to himself, "I don''t wanna deal with cheating drama at all. That confrontation won''t be funny."


    "What are you saying?" Xiu asked him.


    "Nothing. Just sit down," he said while pulling out a chair for her. Xiu eyed his gesture but sat down.


    When he sat down beside her, she said, "You didn''t have to pull the chair for me."


    "What can I say, I have remarkable manners," Dn flipped his hair with his hand and spoke proudly ruining Xiu''s mood again. If he didn''t open his mouth, he might really seem like a golden boy. What a pity!


    But what can one do? It''d be unfair if he was perfect in every way possible.


    They hade here for a lunch meeting with the President of a Shopping Mall Enterprise. However, the said person waste. And they had to wait now.


    "Sir, would you like to order something first?" Xiu questioned Dn who was drinking water. It was his third ss. Either he was really thirsty or really nervous. But Xiu could tell that he wasn''t nervous at all. Then he must be really thirsty.


    "Can''t you stop calling me ''Sir''?"


    "What else should I call you?" Xiu retorted with a raise of her brow.


    Dn opened his mouth to answer. "Mr. Qiu!" Dn closed his mouth and rubbed his throat. How can a feminine voicee out of his mouth? Wait, but he didn''t even move his lips yet! Then that meant...


    Both Dn and Xiu turned their heads and looked at the woman standing not far from them. Her red lips were arced into a huge smile.


    "Why is she here?"


    The question was asked by both Xiu and Dn simultaneously but as they looked at each other, they both had no clue for the answer. Seeing those red lips, Xiu''s eyes were turning red with rage. Her fists were clenched as she stared daggers at the face right before her.
