"What is that? Do you think that is the stuff they call treasures?" Yang Zi asked, pointing her index finger at a yellow paper hanging on a branch of a tall tree. Disappointment visible on her face as she spoke.
"Did you really assume they would hide a genuine treasure in the forest?" Yifeng asked, staring at her. "Don''t tell me you haven''t gone on apany''s trip before?" Yifeng asked, staring at her in surprise. ??
"I was always too busy to embark on apany''s trip before. I thought it was a waste of time. I wouldn''t have been here had my mum not insisted I should embark on the trip," Yang Zi answered nonchntly. She walked to where the paper was hanging. It was when she got closer that she noticed that there was an image on the paper.
"The paper has an image on it. What does the image signify? I am sure you must know the answer right?" Yang Zi asked, turning around to face him.
"I can see why you don''t know a thing about treasure hunting," Yifeng remarked, walking closer to where she was standing.
"Whatever image is on the paper is your actual treasure. You will just have to present the paper to Mr Fang, then he will give you whatever is on the paper," Yifeng said proudly. He hasn''t gone on a trip before but Su Jin who went on thepany''s twice always told him stories about the different games they always y although they always change games each year.
"What? You don''t mean what you just said, right?" Yang Zi asked in surprise. Her eyes widened in astonishment.
"You can try it when we get back," Yifeng chuckled. He was surprised to see how ignorant Yang Zi was.
"Do you mean that if the paper has a private jet on it, they will give me a private jet?" Yang Zi asked doubtfully. Everything Yifeng told her about the hunt sounded foreign to her. She found it hard to believe he was telling the truth. She thought he was ying a prank on her because he knew that she did not know a thing about the hunt.
"Are you doubting my words?" Yifeng questioned.
"You can''t me me for being suspicious. This is my first time hearing it, so I have to verify the authenticity of your words," Yang Zi replied. She turned around and tried to grab the paper, but her hands did not reach it even though she was 168 tall. Even when she jumped, she still wasn''t able to grab it. Jumping again, she stepped on a branch of wood lying on the ground, causing her to miss her stance. Just when she was waiting to feel herselfnd on the littered ground Yifeng caught her in midst air. He held her waist with his firm hand. One of her legs stretched in midst air while the other was resting on the ground. In that position, she had a clearer view of Yifeng''s face. She was always too angry with him to have a proper view of his exquisite face. He had a ck opaque eyes, a well-defined nose and soft pink lips. His sharp jawline was one everydy would go crazy for.
"Howe I never realised that he is this handsome until now". Yang Zi assumed as she continued admiring his exquisite features. She momentarily forgot that he was still holding onto her. Still ring at him, her heart skipped a bit as his longshes fluttered.
"Are you not going to stand properly? My hand might get dislocated because of your bodyweight," Yifeng exaggerated teasingly. He almost bursted outughing when he saw her staring at him as though this was the first time they met. He held back the urge tough.
Yang Zi quickly stood straight when she heard his teases. Her ears turned beet red in embarrassment. She could not believe she just drooled over her boss'' handsome looks like otherdies always do whenever they see him. "So embarrassing," Yang Zi muttered. For a minute she could not stare straight at him.
"Why are your ears red? Don''t tell me you were having dirty thoughts about me awhile ago?" Yifeng teased yfully. Seeing her blush so hard after staring at him, he could not help but want to tease her more. The atmosphere was friendly, and he enjoyed it. He wanted to make excellent use out of it.
"What..... what.... what nonsense are.... are you spouting?" embarrassed Yang Zi stammered. She hit her head hard for being such a fool. "Who is having dirty thoughts about whom? I bet you are the one who is having dirty imaginations about me," Yang Zi fired back. She was too embarrassed to face him. She turned her back at him.
"Do you know you look so cute acting so flustered? I almost thought you were one puredy acting this way, but I know you are not innocent," Yifeng chuckled. He stretched his hand and removed the paper for her.
"You wanted this so badly, right? You can have it," Yifeng said as he ced the paper in her hand. "Stop acting so innocent or else I might really start having dirty thoughts about you," Yifeng whispered into her ears. His hot breath tickling her bare neck. Yang Zi froze on the spot momentarily.
"Why are you still standing there? Don''t tell me you have given up on winning already?" Yifeng, who had walked a few distances from her, asked, seeing her so out of it. Yang Zi took a deep breath to calm her tense body. She followed his lead afterwards. "Why have I been acting so weirdtely? Particrly when he gets very close to me," Yang Zi thought, shaking her head.
Jiu was so unfortunate to have been paired with Jiang Xue. Jiang Xue was ady from a very prominent family who was pampered all her life. She hated getting dirt on her body. If the treasure hunt was notpulsory for all the young employees, she wouldn''t risk getting her delicate skin scratched by going for the hunt.
"Jiu, what is that on the floor," Jiang Xue asked, shivering in fear. She took a few steps backwards. "Isn''t that a snake?" Jiang Xue asked in horror as she jumped on top of Jiu''s body. The already fed up Jiu was too angry to speak. Jiu did not have to walk closer to the so-called snake by Jiang Xue to know that what she called a snake was just a dead branch of wood. Jiang Xue still clung onto Jiu''s despite assuring her that what she saw lying on the floor was not a snake but a dead branch of wood. "Why is she such a spoiled brat? Can''t she distinguished a dead branch of wood from a snake?" Jiu thought angrily, feeling the urge to throw her down.
