Chapter 43 - What Exactly Am I To You
As they both left the cafeteria, Zeng Zhelan asked anxiously, "Zixuan, is it okay for you to reject Xie Yin?"
Liang Zixuan smiled indifferently. "It's okay, she can't do anything to me."
Zeng Zhelan looked over her shoulder and quietly glanced at Xie Yin. "Oh, okay. As long as you know what to do."
Liang Zixuan was so sure of herself. Looking back at how persistent Xie Yin was to be her assistant, if Liang Zixuan really agreed, then when the time comes, who knows how arrogant Xie Yin will be.
What she wanted was an assistant, not someone who would plot something evil 24/7. She was not in the mood and did not have the energy to play with an arrogant woman like Xie Yin.
Liang Zixuan parted with Zeng Zhelan in front of the elevator and went to the top floor.
By this time, everyone had gone to eat.
Liang Zixuan walked to the door of the President's office and knocked on it.
After hearing Han Yuanjun's voice, she slowly opened the door and entered. "President Han, is there something you need from me?"
Han Yuanjun looked up from the document, "Have you finished eating?"
Liang Zixuan blinked and nodded. "Yes, I'm done eating."
Han Yuanjun glanced at her gloomily before lowering his head and looked at the document again. "I haven't eaten yet."
Liang Zixuan: "...."
What did it have to do with her whether he had eaten or not?
Liang Zixuan stood there, watching Han Yuanjun completing his works seriously. She had no idea what he wanted from her.
After standing there for a while, she awkwardly asked, "Then ... Why don't you eat?"
Han Yuanjun didn't even raise his head as he answered, "I don't want to eat alone."
This time, Liang Zixuan finally understood. This man blamed her for eating on her own.
But she never knew he wanted to eat with her, so how come it was her fault?
"T-That's..." Liang Zixuan never stuttered. Yet, every time she faced this man, she can't even speak properly.
She cleared her throat. "Then, President Han, what do you want to eat?"
Han Yuanjun didn't answer.
Liang Zixuan picked up her phone and walked to the side. Only then did she notice that she didn't know what Han Yuanjun liked.
She thought for a moment before dialing Yao Xiu's number.
"Hello." Walking to the window sill, Liang Zixuan looked at the blue sky and white clouds. With a lowered voice, she asked, "Special Assistant Yao, do you know what President Han likes to eat?"
Yao Xiu laughed. "I know. Why are you asking? Are you going to accompany the President to lunch?"
"I've already eaten, but he hasn't eaten yet. I helped him order food, but I don't know what he likes to eat." Liang Zixuan explained.
Yao Xiu smiled more cheerfully. "Okay, I'll send the restaurant link on my WeChat. You can place an order from there. President Han likes to eat food from there. I'll send you my account code too. You don't have to pay for it, just place the order."
After that, Yao Xiu immediately hung up the phone.
Before Liang Zixuan could react, her WeChat notification rang. She opened the apps and clicked on the website link that Yao Xiu had sent to her. Then she used Yao Xiu's account and logged in.
She was immediately stunned. The restaurant was the most luxurious restaurant from a five-star hotel in the city and was specially designed for VIPs. No wonder Yao Xiu asked her to use his account.
Liang Zixuan looked at the menu and didn't know what to order. Her heart skipped a beat the moment she turned around and she subconsciously asked, "President Han, I-I ordered two dishes for you."
Liang Zixuan didn't know how long Han Yuanjun had been looking at her, but when their eyes met, her heart skipped a beat and she immediately stuttered.
Han Yuanjun looked at her amusedly. "You're just ordering food, so what are you nervous about?"
As Liang Zixuan held her cell phone, she felt her hands trembling. "I-I... I'm not nervous!"
She was not nervous at all. It's just that she can't recover from Han Yuanjun's gaze. His gaze was very gentle and affectionate.
Han Yuanjun raised his eyebrow and mimicked the way she spoke. "Y-Yo-You're not nervous, then why are you stuttering?"
"A-Am I stuttering?" Liang Zixuan froze for a moment and then fiercely looked down on herself in her heart.
Wasn't he just a good-looking man? Looking at her behavior, it was as if she had never seen a man before.
Liang Zixuan took a deep breath. "I'm really not nervous."
Han Yuanjun didn't say anything and just looked at her.
Liang Zixuan felt as if she was drowning in a sea of her own consciousness.
She put the phone back in her pocket, and under the pressure of Han Yuanun's gaze, she looked down and said, "I ordered shrimp for you, as well as vegetables. I wonder if you're allergic to seafood?"
She suddenly felt that she was so cowardly to the point that she didn't even dare to look at him. All her courage in facing Shi Tianjian and Xie Yin this morning was completely gone.
Han Yuanjun asked her the question instead. "Are you allergic to seafood?"
Liang Zixuan shook her head. "I'm not allergic."
He laughed. "Then I won't be allergic either."
What did it have to do with her allergy?
Liang Zixuan rubbed her index finger and thumb silently against her side. "President Han, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
Seeing that she wanted to leave as soon as he finished speaking, Han Yuanjun frowned.
Previously, when he helped her, she knew to say thank you. Why, now that he helped her, she didn't even say a word of thanks?
Han Yuanjun felt angry when he saw how heartless she was. "Liang Zixuan!"
Liang Zixuan had just reached the door when she heard his cold voice. She was so frightened that her back straightened up and she turned around like a puppet. She couldn't help but smile, "President Han, is there anything else you need?"
Han Yuanjun's brows twitched. He suddenly stood up and walked a few steps towards her with his long legs. Then, he pushed her against the door.
His handsome face leaned closer, forcing the back of her head to lean against the door. She had nowhere to retreat.
"What are you trying to hide from me?"
"I-I'm not hiding anything." Liang Zixuan quietly pushed Han Yuanjun's chest with her hand, forcing a smile. "President Han, we are in the office, can you step back a little? It's not good to be seen by others."
"Still saying that you are not hiding?" Han Yuanjun squinted his eyes dangerously.
Liang Zixuan chuckled dryly and turned her face weakly to the side. "I'm really not hiding."
This wasn't hiding?
Han Yuanjun really wanted to bite her to death!
"Liang Zixuan, in your heart, what exactly am I to you?"
"Ah ..." Liang Zixuan was stunned. She closed her eyes and pretended to be an ostrich, her voice trembling with fear. "You...You are my boss."
"In your heart, I am just your boss?" Han Yuanjun almost died of anger because of her. "I've helped you so much these few days, and I always put you at the top of my priority. In your heart, I am just your boss?"
What else could it be? It wasn't her who sought his help at all, other than on the night they first met.
However, Liang Zixuan didn't have the courage to utter those words. Even with her eyes closed, she could feel the anger coming from Han Yuanjun's eyes.
She swallowed hard. "Friend!"
Han Yuanjun was still not satisfied. "Just a friend?"
Liang Zixuan was already in a difficult position and Han Yuanjun should have felt grateful that she considered him as her friend.
What else did he want?
In the end, Liang Zixuan was not an ungrateful person. She pursed her lips and whispered, "Young Master Han, I am so grateful for what you have done for me. But... But I didn't dare to think of you more than that."
She slowly opened her eyes, which were full of grievance. "You are very good, really good. There are already many women wanting to throw themselves at you and you know my situation. I just broke up with my boyfriend and he betrayed me, so I really don't have the courage or the confidence to let my imagination run wild.. Being able to treat you as a friend is already my bottom line."
