I was thinking about it swiftly, Could Leon Hua offer any help?
“Thank you, but I don’t think I need your aid so far. ” This was my answer.
“OK, if I could help, just contact me. I’m ready for you at any time, whether it is the psychological, economic or physical assistance…”
When Leon mentioned “physical assistance”, the waiter was opening the door to serve the dish. I suddenly blushed with shyness since the waiter may have heard the sensitive words.
Leon turned angry as his face was covered with frost, “Don’t you know you should knock before you come in?”
The waiter suddenly turned deathly pale because of fear. “I’m sorry, I just…”
I thought she was an honest girl and thus disapproved of embarrassing her. I looked at Leon with a scowl and then he was subjected to give up.
Fortunately, the cuisine was both good in appearance and taste and even Leon deemed it OK. He is so picky that if he said ‘OK’, it meant very good for others.
Seeing he was eating all the time, I thought he was very hungry indeed. But despite the hunger, he maintained his dignified posture and aristocratic style.
When I was done, he was still eating.
“How long have you been hungry?” I couldn’t help asking.
Leon drew a paper towel and wiped his mouth gently. “Uh? You think I ate too much?”
“Of course not. I just find you ate a little more than usual.”
“I didn’t eat lunch. Since then, I’ve been rushing to see you, so I’m really hungry. But if you dislike it, then I’ll stop. ” Leon put down his chopsticks.
“Just go on until you’re satisfied. ”
Leon leaned back, “Enough. Oh, material comforts lead to sexual desire. ”
I thought the conversation would not go in the right way, and thus I switched the topic quickly, “It’s on me. Let me pay for this.”
Leon looked disdainful, “Does anyone rush to pay the bill?”
Walking out the restaurant, we got into his car.
“Where to go now?” Asked he.
“Find a hotel first. ” I told him.
“What about you?” Leon looked at me.
“I still have some things to handle.” Then I added, “It’s my work. ”
“I wanna stay with you. I could help deal with your business together. I can help you really. ” Leon said immediately.
Of course it was not true that I had any work necessary to tackle. I just wanted to meet Wenbei and report what happened today.
“Nope, you’re too tired today. You should rest at the hotel first, and I’ll find you tomorrow.” I tried to relax him.
“I drove here from afar, only wanna stay with you. How could you ask me to the hotel and have a rest? You won’t stay with me? Nala Yao, tell me, do you have an affair in Yang City? Who is he? I wanna kill the bastard! ”
Leon burned with inexplicable anger, and I just missed his point at that moment.
“Am I right? Tell me quickly! Who is the man? Where is he now? ” Leon shouted at me, slammed on the brakes and parked in the middle of the road!
This was his usual style, and it was also the worst thing that I couldn’t stand, If he turned angry, he would stop immediately without considering the whistling or swearing of the cars behind.
“Is there anything wrong with you? Park in the middle of the road? Are you out of your mind? Drive your car now! ”
Leon was furious, and even his pale cheeks faintly flushed with anger. “Who is that man?”
“You crazy man, I don’t know who is he! ”
“Then what are you going to do tonight? Who are you ready to see?” Leon still roared.
“I went to see Wenbei Su!”
It turned silent for a while, and then I was driven by the impulse and blurted out the truth!
The car started then, “Where is Wenbei? Why does he stays in concealment ”
Now that things had gone totally wrong, I just told him all the truth.
“Wenbei was ill because he was caught by the slow-acting poison. Now he is inconvenient to move and has to take a wheelchair. He didn’t want others to know he was ill, so he appointed me as his special assistant to handle some basic affairs for him. ”
Leon breathed a sigh of relief. “You should explain it earlier, which gave me a false alarm.”
“Are you out of your mind? This is Second Brother’s privacy. Without his authorization, I can’t disclose it to anyone! It’s you! You always pester me! You vilified that I have an affair in Yang City. Do you think everyone is similar to you, Mr. Hua? The beauties are lined up for your preference? ”
“I will go with you to see Wenbei. I want to see him.”
“No, he won’t see anyone.” I refused.
“He will agree. Believe me. At this time, he needs a strong ally to support him.” Leon was very confident.
“I have to ask him first.”
“OK, call him now.” Leon agreed.
I dialed his confidential phone number, and he quickly answered, “Nala, what’s up?”
“Xi Su came to the villa to find you today, and I blocked her out and had some conflicts with her. And Aunt Jiang also sent Secretary Yang to come over and she was blocked by me as well. They all seemed to ascertain the reality. What should I do next? ”
“Don’t worry about them. Just try your best. Anyway, I can’t expose where I am, let alone tell others about my plight. ” Wenbei said.
“I see, and there is another person coming there…” I hesitated.
“Leon Hua?”
Wenbei should guess it before I told him! They were all extremely outstanding people, but how could he guess?
“Did the servant tell you?”
“No, the servant doesn’t know my phone number now. Just guess. If an ordinary person came over, you must tell me at once. But you hesitated, then I know that it must be a very important person. Who else can he be? ”
All right, I surrendered.
“You must have told him my dilemma? He may guess a few key points, after all, he is a smart person as well. ” said Wenbei.
“I’m sorry, Second Brother, I made a slip of the tongue and disclosed the fact, but I promise, he won’t tell others.” I said timidly.
“Fine. Apology doesn’t work now. All right. Does he want to see me now, and then ask you to call me first for my approval? ”
I was totally dumbfounded that he almost guessed everything. What else could I say except yes?
“I don’t want to see him now. Tell him that next time when he come to Yang City, I will do my best to treat him as a landlord. ” Wenbei said.
“OK, I’ll tell him now.”
“Anything else?”
“Nothing for now. “I thought about it and said.
“That’s it. I should rest now. Bye.” Wenbei hung up the phone.
I looked at Leon. “He declined and said that he would do his best to treat you next time.”
Leon was a little surprised, “This is unexpected. He doesn’t want to see me? He doesn’t need help? ”
Then he nodded, “Got it. He doesn’t want outsiders to get involved in the Sus’ internal affairs. It’s not hard to understand.”
